.....now Karen Rowe


Another extraordinary woman!  
Karen shares her experience of her recent coaching intensive.

Life-Shadowing. I’m not sure I’d go back to any other way of personal coaching. 3 days, 24 hours, a year’s worth of work and a lifetime of value all rolled into one kind, conscious, compassionate ass-kicking.

I am a roll-up-my-sleeves kind of gal; I have no time to waste waiting for my next big insight and my next revelation. I need it now. So let’s get this show on the road and spend some concentrated time getting to the bottom of it all. No sense dragging it on.

Enter Cathy.

The experience was fascinating, intense and liberating. I realized for one, that NO ONE IS COMING. No one is coming. It’s just me. So I had better start saving myself. I realized that I have spent my entire life trying to prove myself right about an ideal that doesn’t even serve me, that I have been a Chameleon masking who I really am; that I will do anything to be loved, including sell myself and my ideals down the river for a speck of attention, approval or affection.

Scary, messy, gross? Hell yes. Worth it? Every second. And Cathy was by my side the whole time, at the mouth of the cave, shining a flashlight and calling my name. She gave me the opportunity to see myself clearly, fairly and gently. She helped me to anchor within and reconnect with my personal compass.

In the end, I see. I see that I can trust my intuition, surrender my attachment to outcome, let go of judgement, and still be safe, happy and dy-no-mite.

Yes, please Universe. More of that.  

Thank you, Cathy, you very well may just have saved my life.


...Yvonne's gift to Brenda

I flew to Vancouver last weekend and engaged in a 3-Day intensive with Brenda Doherty.

She shares her experience.....

Thank you, thank you, thank you for helping me get that it is my choice to have passion and joy in my life. The three days that you spent in my home just this past weekend were life changing for me and I thank you for your compassion, your dedication and your skill in what you know is your life’s work.
I complained that I felt “stuck” in all aspects of my life, retold the story of what had happened and the survivor that I was. I just wanted to be happy and find my passion again. You allowed me to work through what I thought I needed to, the responsibility, guilt, loss, sadness, stress and suffering of a story I held on to so desperately, and gratefully you tapped into my dire need to finally let it go. Then with all of your skill and compassion you asked me the saddest, most profound question I ever could have been asked that completely rocked my foundation. “When did you stop playing?” Tragically, I did not know that I had and at that very moment, everything changed.
You have given me the gift of knowing that at this very moment, this very instant, I need nothing and that everything is perfect, including me, exactly the way it is. In this very moment I have the choice to be happy which will spread into all aspects of my life and through play I will find my truth, my strength and my passion again. It is thrilling to know that it is never too late to make every difference and that at any moment I can change the direction of my life through each and every action, never knowing what I might have missed had I not listened to my intuition. You have inspired me to create the realities in my life, to be happy, to look for passion, understanding and forgiveness in everything and everyone. Today I no longer feel lost and lonely inside and I no longer feel the need to hide. And gratefully, I no longer have to ‘hurry up and wait” to live my life.
I love you for what you do and especially for who you choose to be and thank God for bringing you into my life. As you say…”there are no accidents” and because of you and the work we did together I work to release the past, opening my hands to receive the joy and gifts I so deserve.
Here is to paying it forward, and with much love.
Brenda Doherty, August 2011

It begins....

...with Yvonne Woods. Fitness Instructor, Holistic Nutritionist. Calgary.

She is the pioneer and the first to 'pay it forward'.
She chose to take a chance on this unique style of coaching - bold, intense, intimate.

Here's what she had to say....

"I spent 3 days with Cathy in a new spectacular adventure of life coach shadowing and the experience was unbelievable!
Cathy taught me how to change my perspective on life and how to see the path of true happiness.
The biggest thing I learned is to stay present and to be aware.
I was amazed to see how much the universe communicates with us and how beautiful our lives can be if we simply stay aware and observe with curiosity.
Happiness awaits us all, we just have to follow our hearts and the world will guide us to where we need to go.
The bigger the jump you make with both feet the greater the pay off; so go ahead and jump!"

Pay it Forward

Several years ago, I was inspired to LifeShadow my long-time girlfriend Wendi, who had a serious illness. My intuition told me that if we spent 3-5 solid days together we would be able to target old patterns and beliefs, and when she would let go of those limitations, she would be able to heal.
I didn't have the courage to mentioned it.
She passed away shortly after.
That idea of LifeShadowing has haunted me ever since!
Today, I am thrilled to say, in tribute of my dear friend, I officially launch my 3-Day Intensives for transformation and healing.
My new website is www. cathyinc.ca
This is a unique and bold new way of coaching - condensing a year's-worth of coaching into 24 one-on-one hours over 3 days.
The fee structure is also unique with 'Pay it Forward'.
The thread begins with Yvonne Woods, Fitness Instructor, Holistic Nutritionist in Calgary. She was free. She then gifted Brenda Doherty in Vancouver, who was the 2nd person to receive the 3-day gift. Now Brenda's gift is in trust for the 3rd person....and so on!
You will be able to follow the thread of miraculous transformations as they happen.
Here we go.........
