“What I found (from Cameron’s teachings) was I was more able to connect to myself through my core values, which transformed into new levels of connection with myself and my community, including my company. I did not have to try hard to influence others, it’s just that I connected to myself and dramatic change around me followed! ”
MK, Company Director“Cameron has offered me new paradigms that it's hard to believe were not previously visible to me, as they so quickly have supported more effective practices in so many areas of my life. As a parent, coach, trainer and community leader, I am better equipped to serve with the learning and insight that Cameron has helped provide. If you get an opportunity to work with Cameron, take it. She has a remarkable gift as a teacher, healer and coach. Gavin Presman, London”
Gavin Preston, UK“Cameron helped me as i’ve navigated the challenges and opportunities of working in a new role, and like all workplaces, facing a time of change and transformation. Her heart centred approach has helped me find my own authentic leadership style and flow. What I love about Cameron’s work is the power of its simplicity. It’s clear, understandable, and you can very quickly and easily start integrating it into your personal and professional working life. ”
JM Communications Manager, New Zealand“Working with Cameron has been transformational in my personal and professional life. Following the steps of Cameron's nourishing roots course and with follow up 1:1 sessions, I've been able to find the tools to be more balanced, I've learnt to nourish and strengthen myself physically and mentally. In turn, that has allowed me to show up, be present in my personal life and nurture my relationships. In my corporate life, it has given me the tools and the confidence to lead, support and guide my team through the changes of our current landscape we face. We have become stronger as a team and have built trust and work more cohesively together. Cameron is undoubtedly a true leader and coach with a refreshing perspective. I would recommend her to anyone. ”
