At first I was flattered, but with the help of my own life coach I soon came to realize that I have a gift. The gift of being a good listener. I’ve been told that I “listen well and hear what is not being actually said”. This ‘gift’, along with a hearty dose of life experiences, empathy and proper training, is what has lead me to become a Life Coach. More specifically, Life Healing Coach, because I can relate on a very personal level with people who are healing from an extensive variety of past trauma. See Testimonials at the page bottom at www.maplehavenpublications.com

What are your gifts? Do you know what they are? If so, I trust you are honouring and using them well.
If you don’t yet know what your specific gifts are, then maybe it is time for you to discover what they are.
Coaching is the process of facilitating change that will lead to desired results; facilitating movement from a current state to a more desirable future state.

What is your desirable future state? How will you reach it? One step at a time.
Begin now to trust in yourself. It can change your life in positive and wonderful ways!

Get some coaching, learn more about the wonder of You and, find more joy in your life.  By the way, if pricing is an issue, then let’s talk and work something out.
Please let me know your thoughts and don’t hesitate to ask questions.
I look forward to meeting you soon.

In order to respond to this great need Sheila Stevenson is now offering Individual & Confidential Mentoring sessions. Sheila is well qualified to assist people in furthering their journey of healing so they can move forward with their lives and their dreams instead of being tethered to the past and the pain. She is especially able to help those who are child abuse survivors and/or those who have suffered great loss such as (but not restricted to) the death of a beloved spouse or child, the loss of a career or business, a home, marriage or other valued relationship or perhaps a cherished pet. 

Tracy said:  ‘Sheila opened a window for me and it allowed the most beautiful, joyous light to shine in.’

Having fun at the Lakefield Literary Festival

Finally got to meet one of my favourite authors.

Here I am having fun at the Lakefield Literary Festival. This is my new friend, award-winning Canadian Native author, playwright, lecturer and humourist Drew Hayden Taylor. We’re holding each other’s books.

Drew is one funny guy. He will keep you in stitches while discussing serious issues about our unique cultures in this great country. Please visit Drew’s website at www.drewhaydentaylor.com.

Were you a victim of childhood abuse,  and now you want to get on with your healing?  Do you love someone who was victimized and are struggling to understand what they had to deal with?  Are you are a professional who works with victims of abuse and who wants a working tool to pass to your clients?  Or are you experiencing difficult issues in the workplace and not sure why?

Whatever your reason, come and meet Canadian author Sheila Stevenson, and pick up a copy of her autobiographical work book titled HOPE for Survivors of Childhood Abuse – A Healing Journey Towards a Fulfilling Life. 

Ask Sheila your questions, and get her to autograph your copy of this HOPE-filled book of Healing.
