Testimonials
“I suddenly feel so hopeful, so optimistic about the kind of mother I can be. Yes, I still need time to integrate all of this after next week, but I can do it, and I feel confident that it will all become clear in my mind (with my intention to make it so) so I can begin to easily refer back to the appropriate technique in any given circumstance, until it eventually becomes embodied reflex. Yeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaa!
I REALLY need/needed this leadership on how to be a leader. I didn’t realize until the past two weeks just how confused I have been about how to be a leader for my daughter without suppressing her human right to freedom. Thank you, Eliane!”

"I wanted to work with Eliane because I wanted to have the harmony in my family that she had with her 3 daughters and I knew that it was possible because I had seen her do it in her own family.

After only one session I could see that my perspective on my relationship with my son was totally different and I would handle the situations very differently because I was not triggered anymore. I could be fully present to what my son was experiencing.
I have gotten so much more than what I was looking for when I first started working with her. In just a few sessions I have moved through wounds that I thought would never go away, that I could never get past in my life. I have also uncovered how those wounds play in my family life and by dealing with them, there are dramatically positive changes in my life, not only with my son but with my boyfriend, in my life with friends, my life with my work, my life with myself." |
"I just finished an INCREDIBLE conscious parenting program by Eliane Sainte-Marie. It has really helped me connect my high ideals, about how to parent in a conscious connected way, with my actions and interactions with my daughter/family. It has improved my relationship with my daughter drastically (which wasn't so bad to begin with ;)) and really given me skills for not only parenting but also LIFE in general. I cannot speak highly enough about this program or Eliane! Check her out!"

"I had been working with another coach for about 6 months and still couldn't get to core of why I was feeling so stuck. Working with Eliane, I made a huge breakthrough in less than an hour. She's an active and compassionate listener and makes it feel safe for me to dig down deep to get right to the core of an issue rather than just nibbling around the edges of it. She has the skills and tools to laser right in on the underlying issue. After one session with Eliane I felt an enormous sense of relief and peace and knew what I needed to focus on to finally get my life and career moving in the right direction."

We have really enjoyed Elvin since the day he was born. But I have only really started enjoying -parenting- since our conversation with you. This may sound dramatic, but really only after talking with you I was finally able to release myself from the constant self doubt, measuring, guilt and "should's", and finally started viewing myself as a competent mother, focusing rather on what I'm doing good. It's been amazing :)
You're one of the kindest and most open hearted people I have spoken to in a long time, and I think that's why you are able to touch so deep into people's hearts, even in just one conversation.
So again, an enormous grateful THANK YOU!
"Eliane is one of the most brilliant and authentic coaches that I know. I sincerely believe that if you are ready to finally live the life you truly want and deserve, there is no one better to guide your journey of transformation than Eliane. She has an amazing ability to enlighten and empower you to overcome any limitations that have been holding you back whether personally, professionally or as a parent. You owe it to yourself to schedule a complimentary session with Eliane."

"When I entered into public education at age 10 and began to interact with my peers I realized that my home life was much different than my friends'. I started to realize that I didn't share a lot of the insecurities that my girlfriends had, I knew who I was and I was happy with it. At home I had been treated with respect, trust, and taught that I was capable of making good decisions on my own. That gave me the confidence I needed to not only be a successful student, but a strong, independent person. Looking back now I realize how lucky I was to have been brought up in such a positive and loving environment."

"Although I have only had a few sessions with Eliane so far, I am truly grateful that I was led to her and her work. I couldn't love my children more, and yet, almost on a daily basis, I was feeling that how I was parenting was not really working. From a place deep within, I knew that there is a more peaceful, loving and effective way to raise my family. Eliane is guiding me to that place. Her warmth and understanding, coupled with her knowledge and experience, have allowed me to go deeper into the root of what I am experiencing, and I can feel that my family and I are headed for some real healing. By applying some of the advice I have received from her, my relationship with my children is already shifting and feeling so much more peaceful. As I "open" my heart to another way, I notice that, so too are my children. I know I have a long way to go in my growth as a parent and as a woman, and I couldn't think of someone I would rather have hold me and guide me through that. If you are a parent who is looking to raise your children with strength, love and integrity, I invite you to give Eliane a call."

"Eliane has helped me immensely with my parenting -- to clarify my parenting goals, to be myself with my kids, to lighten up, and to have much more fun. Using her experience and huge resource of tools, she is an amazing coach. Whether I want to release something personal that gets in the way of my parenting or tackle a difficult situation for me, Eliane facilitates opportunities for change and growth. She embodies authenticity, trust, caring, and truth. It’s who she is, and it’s no wonder that she’s helped me step into greater trust in myself and my teenage kids. Now, I can say what she says, “It’s a joy to have teenagers!”

"After a session with Eliane the fear of moving forward in my life was gone---so much so that I couldn't even remember the 'story line' I was telling myself. Literally it was like waking up from a dream and not remembering. The best kind of new day!"

From Angry to Happy in One Session!!!
AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT CAN HAPPEN IN ELIANE'S POWERFUL COACHING:
I was familiar with a lot of the basics of attachment parenting and the Continuum Concept, mostly from talking with and observing my sister (Eliane) raise her 3 beautiful daughters, when I myself had my son 3 1/2 years ago. I had seen what wonderful impact her great skill in "living" the continuum concept had had on her family : confident, autonomous, thriving, caring and empathetic girls evolving in a respectful, collaborative and more affectionate sisterhood (that spread more widely to all their relationships) than I had ever seen.
I thought I was pretty good in applying most of the concepts myself with son, trying to be respectful, meeting his needs, acting in a non-adverserial dynamic but without letting his needs take over all of mine. That was until this fall. When he started being aggressive whenever my boyfriend or I would not give him instantly what he wanted, screaming, hitting, having fits for all things he knew I wouldn't let him have (chocolate, tv, computer).
Talking with my sister, I tried to find out what was my son's need underlying this behaviour, and realized that it might have something to do with one of the Continuum concepts: that is that the parent needs to be in charge. This seemed to make sense, but I couldn't point out exactly how this was playing out or what I needed to do differently in order to stop that behaviour. And I truly believed that my son's behaviour (and the discomfort that was lying underneath it) was related somehow to my behaviour toward him.
After trying to figure that out in my head for many many days, I finally decided to ask my sister for a "real" coaching session. I had been resisting it, because I know my sister. I know her ability to almost instantly make me go as deep as I need to get to the core of where the problem resides, mainly unresolved pains that make me act out of fear rather than out of love. I sensed that this situation was related to old wounds that I didn't want to reopen, fearing that it would hurt too much, fearing that they wouldn't close back.
Well, let me tell you. An hour and a half later, I was light, feeling a burden had been taken off my shoulders. And a few days later, my son started being his old self again, looking happy, content and serene, respectful, able to cope with answers that didn't please him. His aggressive behaviours completely disappeared in a few weeks.
So what did my sister do in our coaching session?........ I DON'T KNOW!!! I don't remember what we talked about, and I am pretty sure it wasn't about my son's behaviour. She helped me dig all the way down to where I needed to at that moment (although I had no clue where that was, nor did she, before we started the session). And that's exactly where I needed to go to release what was in the way of my relationship with my son. How was that playing out? I still can't tell. I can only observe the consequences, and the consequences are: I feel better, my son feels better, our dynamic is drastically different then it was a month ago, and all of that with no punishments, no struggles, no tears, no fears.
Just by me acting from a place of love, confidence, and security.
