Welcome

Offerings of Support & Peace in the Midst

We are being called to step into the unknown like never before!

We are professional coaches, friends and co-creators of Alive & Inspired. It is our pleasure to share our work with you!

Alive & Inspired was born in 2015 when we came together to sit with this inquiry, “How can we be with all that arises in life?” We know that we are pure Essence, Aliveness. How do we cultivate this Aliveness so that, like a deeply rooted tree, we are able to take up space and expand into the fullness and joy of life as well as withstand the mightiest storm?

We were reminded that we have a well-spring of Courage, Love, Wisdom and Possibility available to us when we learn to tap into this powerful source.

Alive & Inspired offers embodied practices, small group and individual coaching, workshops, retreats and community to support people in creating lives of presence and possibility.

We welcome you!

Co-creators of the Alive and Inspired Process, Jackie & Ann believe that in becoming fully present, trusting the body’s innate wisdom, and connecting to our Essence, we ground into who we are - resilient, creative, Alive and Inspired.
Alive and Inspired is an integration of the work that Jackie and Ann have been bringing to their clients, students and their own lives. The power of the Alive and Inspired process is going through the body to deepen connection to self, transform the patterns that emerge through the coaching and inquiry practice, and moving from intention to action. The creation of this process evolved as Jackie and Ann, long-time friends and now professional colleagues, came together with the intention of bringing their passion for growth and transformation, their years of training and practice, to the world in a greater way.
