Hey Beautiful! I’m Rebecca.
Thank you for being here and welcome!
As your coach, I am your trusted thought partner, your unwavering supporter, your compassionate sounding board, your biggest cheerleader, and at times, your loving kick-in-the-butt.
I’m your co-pilot on this incredible journey, ready to walk alongside you every step of the way.
Whether you’re ready to expand on your existing dreams, or find yourself feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, or lost in it all, please know that you’re in the right place. I’m thrilled that you’re here and considering this transformative journey together.
To clarify a common question, as a coach I’m here to guide you through difficult emotional terrain, but I’m not a therapist. I won’t be diagnosing or “fixing” you. Rather, I’ll be shining light on your capabilities, resources, and inherent wholeness, and holding you there with unwavering conviction.
My mission is to help you reconnect with your inner wisdom, unlocking the magnificent power and brilliance that resides within you. Together, we’ll dive deep, unraveling the layers and limiting patterns that have been holding you back for too long.
Imagine breaking free from the patterns of perfectionism, procrastination, and burnout that have kept you from fully stepping into your brilliance.
Picture rediscovering your passions in a whole new light, gaining fresh insights into your innate gifts and discovering new ways to harness their power. Most importantly, envision experiencing a profound sense of joy, passion, and purpose flowing through your life.
Throughout the coaching experience, you’ll discover the strength to lead bravely, the confidence to embrace your authentic self, and the tools to navigate life’s challenges with grace and effectiveness.
Together, we’ll uncover the deeper story of your life, reclaiming your rightful place on the throne of your destiny.
Who am I?
I’m Rebecca Garland—a Personal Mastery Coach, passionate entrepreneur, foodie, animal-lover, a disrupter of limiting habits, a dream-weaver, a traveler, and yes, a margarita-loving-surfer-wannabe.
With over 20 years of experience as a coach and trainer, certified in Health & Fitness Menopause, Strength & Conditioning, Pilates, Air Yogalates, and Precision Nutrition, I’ve helped countless individuals such as yourself become fitter, healthier, happier, and more vibrant versions of themselves.
Now for some fun facts
I hail from the beautiful Yukon, and one of my most cherished school memories was participating in an outdoor ed. class where we cycled to Alaska, and camped in our own home-made snow caves. At the age of 18, I brought kickboxing to the Yukon, igniting a passion for empowering women in their bodies. I finished my Kinesiology degree in Ghana, Africa. The adventures there and in between have been rich!
My insatiable curiosity about human behavior, expanding potential, habit mastery, healing, and performance has led me down countless paths of exploration. I find deep joy in entrepreneurship, music, psychology, food, fitness, immersing myself in nature, Martial Arts, creativity, spirituality, travel, and unleashing the incredible potential within each and every person.
Throughout my own personal challenges, including an early diagnosis of a rare and rapid spreading form of cervical cancer, a car accident, and supporting a dear friend with terminal brain cancer, I’ve come to learn what matters most in life—cultivating resilience, courage, commitment, growth and healing, nurturing quality relationships, and embracing full-being health.
As we embark on this transformative journey together, you can expect a safe and sacred space where deep inner (and outer) work can unfold.
I approach our sessions with a gentle yet persistent presence, allowing you to explore the depths of your being and emerge stronger than ever before. Clients often express gratitude for the profound connections we establish and the surprising speed at which transformation occurs.
Remember this above all else:
You’re not here to suffer, even though suffering has been a part of your story.
Your past doesn’t define you, nor does it determine your future. If you feel that deep longing for something more, pay attention to those inner whispers that beckon you toward growth and expansion—they carry profound wisdom and grow louder when left unanswered.
Here’s what I want you to know, dear friend—Welcome, with open arms, to this space of possibility and evolution. You’re meant to shine brightly. You’re meant to lead with authenticity and grace. You’re meant to live brilliantly, boldly, and unapologetically.
If you’re ready to embark on this inner journey of self-discovery, empowerment, deep health and body confidence, I invite you to take the leap and create a life that ignites your metabolism, sets your soul on fire and fills your heart with purpose and fulfillment.
Let’s make some magick!
With more love than you know,
I’m based in Calgary, Alberta, but can meet you ‘virtually’ anywhere.
You’re in good hands
