It’s been a pleasure meeting you. I've created this page as a simple way to share more about my work and how we can stay in touch. I look forward to continuing our conversation.” - CoraLyn “CJ”

What I Do

I offer a range of services designed to help professionals, caregivers, and community leaders thrive in demanding environments, and enhance their impact. My core offerings include:

  • Interactive group workshops focused on equipping teams or community groups with collective resilience strategies and collaborative problem-solving techniques.

  • The Resilient Supporter - a multi-session training program that breaks down complex psychological and leadership concepts into easy-to-digest modules.

  • Online courses that provide a deep dive into strategic thinking and resilience-building strategies.

Let’s Connect

I like to say “If we accomplish tasks, but don’t build a relationship, we’ve failed. If the task is incomplete, but we’ve strengthened our relationship, we’ve still succeeded.” My efforts are all about building authentic connections, so if my work resonates with you, I would love to continue the conversation. Let’s schedule a brief, no-pressure chat to see if we’re a good fit for each other.
