What we do

  • Building leaders who lead with clarity, courage, and humanity.
    Designed for real life, real work and real people. At the heart of this work is a belief that effective leadership begins with self-awareness and care for others. Our workshops support leaders to bring a people-centred lens to their decisions, relationships, and responsibilities, without losing sight of results.

    By centering empathy, accountability, and love as leadership practices, participants develop the confidence to lead with intention and integrity.

    The outcome is leaders who foster trust, navigate difficult situations with care, and contribute to workplaces where people feel seen, supported, and empowered to do meaningful work.

  • Story-powered talks that connect across industries.

    From non-profits and learning institutions, to corporate and community spaces, these talks use storytelling with intention. Each session is designed to spark meaningful dialogue, deepen connection, and invite new ways of seeing leadership, identity, and impact.

    Topics include:

    Lead from the Inside Out: Own Your Leadership Narrative

    Navigating Leadership and Organizational Systems as a Black Leader

    Leading Gen Z in the Workplace with CARE

    Story-Powered Leadership: Trusting Your Narrative to Transform How We Lead

    A speaker who leads with presence and purpose.

    Lyn-Marie’s approach is warm, grounded and deeply human. Through openness and thoughtful facilitation, she nurtures spaces where people feel seen, challenged, and inspired.

    Audiences reflect, engage, and leave uplifted and curious about how their own growth can shape and transform the spaces they lead.

  • Through Gallup’s CliftonStrengths assessment, we facilitate spaces where individuals and teams discover, appreciate, and apply what makes them unique.

    Strengths awareness becomes a practical pathway to deeper self-understanding, stronger collaboration, and greater collective impact.

  • Do you design learning experiences for students beyond the classroom that centre belonging, identity, and student voice?
    Are you seeking coaching and strategic guidance to build or refine a program curriculum that reflects the lived experiences of the students you serve?

Lyn-Marie was instrumental in the success of our one-day facilitation for Education Program alignment within the Mentorship and Peer Programs within Student Engagement at the University of Toronto. Her care and professionalism were evident from the outset, as she skillfully created an environment that encouraged open and purposeful dialogue. Lyn-Marie’s expertise in engaging participants allowed for deep and meaningful discussions, ensuring that every voice was heard and valued. Thanks to her leadership, we were able to achieve a clear and cohesive plan for our programs. Her impact on our team will be felt long after this session.
