About Sheila Stirling, About

WHO I AM

 

Hey there, I’m Sheila, one of the most positive, optimistic people you’ll meet…

 

As a lifelong student of personal development, I’m truly passionate about having meaningful conversations, finding the “lemonade” in as many situations as possible, and consistently moving forward. I do love life, and actively accomplish the goals I set out (some call it a bucket list). I’ve travelled many parts of the world (with more still to explore), I’ve been married (and divorced); I am a proud mother of two grown sons, one married with his first child, and one who is in university. Becoming a grandparent has been an amazing experience on so many levels.

I’m a sister, youngest of five siblings, the baby who still gets excited when we’re altogether. I’m an auntie, and a great auntie (which means I’m a second-generation auntie, not old!)

I’m an orphaned adult; my parents passed away within two years of each other, both gone before I was 40; that’s usually when we begin to really appreciate, need and want to have those meaningful conversations with them. So yes, I still miss them!

WHY INVEST IN

Partnering with Me

WHO I AM (continued)

I’m a friend, an acquaintance, a colleague, a neighbour, open-minded, positive and happy. An exercise for one of my courses was to ask three different people for three words that best describe me and all three said Optimistic! I’ve been described as intuitive, helpful, engaging, fun, playful and humorous.I went to school for Public Relations, invested in myself which included attending a number of personal development conferences around the world (Rome and Hawaii), and became a Law of Attraction Facilitator before founding Positively Speaking in 2009. Then I got side-tracked for a number of years. Sound familiar? As adults it’s so easy to put ourselves, (including our health, hobbies, goals and dreams) last. Life, work, varying demands, pressures, stress hold us back from living the life we truly want. Getting back on track in 2020, I crossed off another bucket list goal and completed an ICF (International Coaching Federation) certified life and wellness course to be qualified to offer my services to you.

Let’s work together to help you find your way, get back on track or simply figure out what’s next.

PARTNERING WITH ME MEANS…

I’m your thinking partner. We are equals; I’ll ask challenging questions with a mutual understanding that you and I have created a safe space to allow clear, free flowing thinking.

  • You are in control of every conversation
  • We’ll spend time clarifying things that are important to you
  • We’ll have progressive, meaningful conversations to build forward momentum, gain clarity and explore if there is anything holding you back
  • Our conversations will be goal-oriented
  • Our time together will be impactful and ignite new possibilities
