How to be the strongest, fittest and most courageous YOU!
Join my mind-shifting, body shaping, habit-forming Quest
This is your time to get strong, stand your ground
and be rooted in your authenticity.
Nobody does you better
My promise?
To have your back, as you develop holistic self-care practices, strength and success habits, to become resilient so you can be fully engaged with your whole-life-vision to face any situation, courageously. Living life on your terms.
During uncertain times, we can feel even more vulnerable, alone, and out of control.
It takes a real leap of faith to make a change, and it is always most scary to take that first step on the journey from where you are now to where you want to be, embracing your unique and divine potential.
Trust me on this, you are not alone. I know because not only have I been there myself but it is also what my clients tell me. As high-achieving, over-giving, passionate, talented, and smart women, looking from the outside in, it is difficult to think that the kind of things they have told me can be true.
-
I need to find balance, time for my emotional & physical wellbeing is non-existent.
-
My issue is I often feel so vulnerable. I tell myself, who am I fooling to think I can hold down this position.
-
I have been feeling tired and in pain for some time and I haven't made time to address it. Why Can't I make time for me?
-
I am an emotional wreck, struggling with emotional scars that have now become chronic pain, and yest at the same time,... I can feel numb.
-
I just cannot be disciplined, I keep sabotaging my sleep, weight, fitness, health, even my relationships need work.
-
At times, I really feel there's more to life. I question what direction to take with my business.
-
I need to clarify my next move when I retire, there's more I want to do.
-
I am SO overwhelmed, help, I need to stop procrastinating and second-guessing myself so I can be more efficient.
So let me ask, are you:
-
The ultimate self-critic, can't kick the procrastination cycle... stuck in paralyzing perfectionism?
-
Have too many distractions stealing your sleep, your focus, flow, and purpose?
-
Need to get in shape, eat healthy, feel calm and more spiritual?
-
For too many years struggling with regret, betrayal and disappointment?
-
Feel your self-worth and self-trust eluding you?
Then you are in the right place. I am here to support you. To coach you through a personalized transformational journey to you, your authentic space where you arrive with compassion, genuine love and reliable accountability.
Let me be your coach through your sacred time of reflection, realization, release, resolve and renewal.

I propose the SOMETHING that we all have to choose is ourselves.

Please, I am not going to lead you down the empty-promise paths of overnight success and trends....
lasting real change is a journey that you must take ownership of, not a prescription, but a process.
“Intention is not an event or something you can check off, intention is a process.”
Christine Kane

don’t allow destructive sabotaging mindsets and fears to take up space in your beautiful brain…
If you are ready to take this journey with me...
ease, pleasure and total sense of wellbeing, calm and courage are all within your reach!
"When Carla announced her quest I was immediately intrigued. I had hired coaches before but Carla far exceeded my expectations. The first trait which struck me besides her obvious glowing smile and positive energy was how attentively she listened to responses to her carefully selected questions, formulating ideas for areas of concerns while seamlessly reframing self-defeating thoughts. I left that first call energized but somewhat naive about how much she would push me to be my best self. She is supportive, encouraging but tough. If you set a goal with her you better be serious because she will follow up and hold your feet to the fire. So come prepared to work. So many areas of my life that have improved, not only did my diet and overall health improve but even my marriage, and finances improved."
T. Astaphan, Psy.D. Clinical psychologist / Mom-In-Chief

"Carla, this quest has made all the difference! I now have an elevated consciousness about my body, soul, and spirit as a wonderful movable feast. Wherever I go, I can meditate. Wherever I go, I can exercise. Wherever I go, I can write my morning pages. Wherever I go, I take myself with me, and that includes my light, my LOVE, and my commitment to becoming, over and over again, the best version of myself. This Quest sends me shopping in my soul. Thanks,"
Dr. H. Thomas-Lake - CEO HillTop Ethics
Why Do I want to support you? A little about my journey.
Because, trust me, I feel you, I know you, I know right where you are, because I have been there too. I too have had to climb out of some very dark places, each time having to deepen my resolve, reorient my purpose with an entirely different plan. I had to reinstall my conviction and reclaim my power even my identity. You see most people just look at me and see a colourful, extroverted bad-ass, 'take-no-prisoners' Carla, but let me tell you, I have been through my piles of crap too. Too much to talk about here, but I have been in similar painful paralyzing situations like you. I have felt it, excruciating pain and injury, felt loss and lost, violated and exploited, betrayed, used, and discarded.
So trust me when I say, I got your back on this one... I really do.
I will give you my most recent story, you see, very much like we are today in this COVID-19 Pandemic time, just under 3 years ago, I got a rude awakening that brought back up all my past... I found myself living in circumstances that had me facing a very different uncertain reality that I hadn’t prepared for. Natural disaster, I experienced a devastating hurricane, one traumatic and emotional experience after another followed, loss and devastation of property and business, personal or professional challenges, fear, real fear for my physical and emotional being. Total and complete overwhelm, despair, and shame. It's like I was judging myself from every angle, while faking it, pretending like it was all just fine while drowning every lonely dusk and sleepless stormy night with alcohol in a house with no security or roof. I felt paralyzed, couldn't exercise, no dry space, I couldn't run, too scared to face the haunting landscapes (and I have been a runner for about 40 years)..., talk about being flooded with stress hormones and over-eating the wrong foods only to gain 11 kilos in 5 months? I was up to my heaviest adult weight, that I had only been at once before the day after I delivered my son. I couldn't think straight, angry, shocked, lost... basically, overall 'I was a f***ing hot mess'! (excuse the french, but I just don't know how else to say it).
But thank God, I got a break, took a step away the moment I found a window of time and glimmer of hope. I found my trusted 'toolboxes', shook myself hard, and realized that something just had to give! So I got some emotional support, established reliable professionals, hired a business coach, started taking care of myself and exercising, rolled out my Pilates Mat, started running and painting and writing poetry again... Hill running for 2 hours was like I had tasted heaven. The freedom, the sense of stamina, and inner strength, it all came back to me. I was back in business, teaching, and coaching again, and yes, within 4 months I had shed those 11 kilos!
The thing is, it was familiar, I had made similar journeys personally and with clients and friends quite a few times before. Whatever you are struggling with, the fact that you are also experienced, accomplished, and talented you do have what it takes to get back on top of your game, but even better! This time, the game you choose will be played on your terms… I know you know that too, so please, do not doubt yourself, your abilities, and your will. When you find that self-compassion and have someone to support you and help you uncover your truth and potential, it works. I know it I have done it.
To be honest, as I said before... it is downright paralyzing, I know it is...
and that my dear, is WHY I created this amazing Quest.
It's delicious, it's juicy, it's creative, it's physical, it's intellectual, it's spiritual, it will be emotional.
It's a hybrid of experiences that I know will take you to and through some divine spaces
you need and you will love.
So what do you say? Let's do this together?
"Thank you for sharing, yesterday, the challenges you’ve had to overcome. It makes us see even more what a phenomenal woman you are. I can see for sure, your focus on wellness and going into the body is the key..... to connecting with the innermost divinity."
T. Astaphan, Psy.D. Clinical psychologist / Mom-In-Chief
"I would recommend anyone to you - especially those who may lack confidence in their own ability
and are at a point that they really need a supportive push by a strong focused accomplished woman.
But if one is looking to have their ego stroked - you are NOT the coach for them."
Nicole S. - Supreme Court Judge
"Carla, I would recommend you to someone for, setting fitness goals, organization in reaching one’s target. Dedication and perfection. Help in fitness injuries. Event planning and implementing life coaching, and structuring of one’s life. Your ability to make things happen through your organizational skills. Knowing they will receive the best no matter what it is. Your ‘plain truth, take it, or leave it’ attitude. Joann – Style Consultant, Interior Designer, Real Estate Developer
