I was feeling very very low a couple of months ago and I couldn't see any way out of my situation. I had a boyfriend I was depending on, a job I couldn't stand and I just wanted to shut down all the time. Talking to Meg was like a breath of fresh air, I know she has a lot of great things that I still need to learn but I just really needed someone that I could depend on and she gave me a space to cry and feel like I was being heard. I still have tough days but I'm starting to believe in myself which is better than wanting to curl up under my covers all of the time. I encourage anyone looking for help to give The Alignment Catalyst a shot, she is getting me closer to liking myself and that is a lot to say. Thank you Meg! More...

When I was seeking out a coach I was looking for focus and to be less stressed. I had a lot of negative self-talk and I wasn't moving forward. I really liked how Meg's approach had determination mixed with spirituality, like I wanted to be productive but I like God too, so I thought she'd be right for me and I'm so glad I stuck with her. I learned about setting my mind in focus first thing in the morning and creating thoughts that inspired me to be bigger than my negative thoughts, it took work but it is finally working and she is so nice to talk to. I really look forward to chatting once a week. You've made me believe in myself again and I'm connecting with God more than ever. I am really happy with The Alignment Catalyst, all of my problems can be taken care of when I'm willing to look at them and then let them go! More...

Having an hour with Meg once a week is like a verbal massage. I have been loaded with feelings of unworthiness and doubt, even though I have great things going on in my life. I couldn't seem to get out a head of the negative self-talk and feeling like I just wasn't good enough, so I sought out therapy. What I like about Meg is that I don't feel like I'm going around in circles when we talk, I feel like I always crack something open that I didn't know I was hiding. After working with Meg, what I feel is confidence, I have a really good grip that my self-worth is made up and I'm learning how to believe that I have inner wisdom that is always full of worth, I just have to practice tapping into listening.

What do you love most about your job?
I love watching people have insights into their true nature and to witness them remove the roadblocks that once seemed massive. I love watching confidence and self-love re-emerge. Mostly I love escorting people to that place within themselves that has all of the answers... being able to hold a judgement free space for someone to unleash and unhinge the barriers in their mind. Personally, I have found so much freedom in sharing the troubles of my heart with someone I trust. To find someone to help unlock my limiting beliefs and to have an "unfiltered" conversation with someone is premier for my well-being. I love being able to provide that same feeling, that same experience for others. I have found that the opposite of any addiction, whether it be to something we are using or something we continue to think or believe in, is connection. I love connecting to another human for the purpose of well-being.
What inspired you to start your own business?
A few things inspired me to go into my field..... firstly, behavioral science, psychology + spirituality has been my true calling since I was 15, I have spent my lifetime learning, experiencing and serving the wisdom of connecting the human mind with the heart. Secondly, I love that I have had the passion to transform personal trauma and suffering into a relationship with my true self, an infinite wisdom, an inner teacher, call it god, universe or higher self. When one discovers that all of the relationships we seek outside of ourselves can actually be found within, a true shift occurs.... SO I have had the privilege to help others find this within themselves and there is nothing like it. Thirdly, I've watched many people I've worked with transcend mental or emotional problems into gifts, gratitude and success stories and to stop offering this service would hinder my own purpose. There is nothing I'd rather be doing.
Why should our clients choose you?
I have a very developed inner wisdom, a relationship with prayer, meditation, art, spirituality, the 12 steps and yoga. I have an ever growing intellectual mind which is always in the research field expanding on cutting edge material. I have personally experienced trauma and addiction and I have pioneered my own life with the guidance + wisdom + tools that I now pass on to my clients. I have my own coach, so I'm always doing the personal inner work too, this is important. I will teach and show you that you have an ego mind and a universal mind, or an ego and a true self, a little self and a higher self, an ego and wisdom, whatever we decide to call it, we will learn how to discern between the two and influence the one that has your well-being in mind. We will tailor make your coaching/therapy experience to match what is comfortable to you. I hope that you come with willingness, open-mindedness and honesty, if you have that, we can flourish. I offer a total judgement free zone, a space for our hearts to expose truth and raw emotions, a safe hour to expand, breathe and gain insight into a more fruitful and fulfilling direction. I live to give these great gifts away and I'd be honored to serve you for as long as time will have us.
