Hi, I’m Cayley

I am an experienced, Vancouver-based coach and facilitator of 19 years, who leads with kindness.

I am a mom of two.

I am deeply familiar with the complexities of fertility - we welcomed our second babe through IVF.

I am a certified yoga and meditation teacher.

I am compassionate, grounded, kind, and also fierce.

I am a fan of getting sweaty. And quiet.

I am a lover of peanut M&Ms.

I am celebrating five years of starting my own coaching business after 14 years leading personal and leadership development work in the corporate world.

I am many things, just like you. And I will acknowledge all of you.

Here’s the full story…

I believe motherhood is not a moment — it is a lifelong process of becoming.

For close to 15 years, I worked in the corporate world coaching individuals and leading workshops and retreats globally, most recently as part of the Mindful Performance team at lululemon.

My work has always centered on supporting people through major transitions, identity shifts, and the complexity of being human.

Over time, I noticed something: the experiences of parents — particularly mothers — were often hidden, unspoken, and unsupported.

Becoming a mother myself was the catalyst for this work.

I experienced firsthand what I had been witnessing for years: that the mother is often the afterthought — and yet she is essential.

Motherhood is often treated as a single event.
But it is an ongoing transformation.

And yet, women are rarely supported in that process.

Five years ago, I founded my coaching practice grounded in matrescence.

While working with hundreds of mothers, I heard the same question again and again:

“Why didn’t anyone tell me?”

Why didn’t anyone tell me this was normal.
Why didn’t anyone tell me I wasn’t alone.
Why didn’t anyone tell me it would be like this.

This question now shapes everything I do.

Because the issue is not that something is wrong with mothers —it is that something is missing in how we understand and support them.

This is why my work has expanded beyond coaching mothers to include the education of healthcare professionals.

Because real change requires more than individual support —it requires systemic change.

I support both mothers and practitioners in understanding this transformation with greater awareness, language, and care.

My work is informed by psychology, sociology, leadership development, yoga and meditation, lived experience, and ongoing learning from interdisciplinary experts including Dr. Aurelie Athan and Dr. Sophie Brock.

This work is deeply personal — and it is the work I feel most called to do.
