Hey there! Welcome to a little glimpse into my world. I'm Dave, a Leadership Coach, Life Coach, and Equine Guided Facilitator based in the beautiful Ladner Village, B.C., Canada. My passion? Helping leaders, parents, teens, and anyone feeling overwhelmed, stressed out, or simply yearning for something different in their lives.
Back in 2017, I took a leap of faith. I left my Senior Leadership role at a large Local Government organization to embark on a new adventure: Small Pause Coaching & Consulting. Why? Because I believe in the power of the pause. In these moments of stillness, we can invite in new, deeper conversations - conversations that can potentially transform lives.
My journey has led me to become a Certified HeartMath® Coach & Mentor, a Trauma-sensitive Coach, a trained Equine Guided Learning Facilitator, and a Certified Coach with the ICF. I honed my skills at the Newfield Network in Boulder, Colorado, where I delved deep into the transformative practices of Ontological Coaching.
But here's the thing: Coaching isn't just about titles or certifications. It's about connection, understanding, and creating a space for growth. Through my unique approach, I've supported hundreds of individuals and organizations in their quests for clarity, resilience, and purpose.
Do you remember the days before 24/7 connectivity? Most don't. In our fast-paced world, we often forget the value of slowing down. That's where the magic of the "small pause" comes in. It's not just a concept—it's a way of life that I'm passionate about sharing.
Want to dive deeper into the world of intentional living, values awareness, and transformative coaching? Visit www.smallpausecoach.comalso to learn more about my work. If you're curious about the conversations I'm part of, you can find me on LinkedIn, Instagram, or Facebook.
Oh, and here's something extra: I've channeled my creativity into the Small Pause Shop. It's where you'll find apparel that celebrates living life 'inside the pause.' Because sometimes, wearing your values can be a powerful reminder to embrace those moments of stillness.
Remember, your adventure starts now—enjoy the journey, and don't forget to pause along the way!
