After working with Corliss I became the person I always wanted to be.
"When I first started taking Corliss’ workshops, I really wasn’t happy with my life or where it was going. I felt stuck in a job I didn’t like, I was financially stressed trying to pay bills, I was depressed and my relationship with my husband was hurting because of the way I was. I also gained a lot of weight and my health was deteriorating.
When I started the reflections to my past, present, and future, I realized that I’ve become a person that I didn’t really like anymore. By working on myself and setting goals, I became the person I always wanted to be. My voice awakened and I started to build on that.
Today, I still use the tools I learned through coaching to help me build toward a better me in all aspects of life. I now have a better job with higher pay. I lost 56 pounds and my health is so much better. My relationship with my husband has become stronger. I am now in the process of writing my book about all the struggles and challenges I’ve had to go through in hopes it will inspire others going through the same things that I endured.
Thank you Corliss, for helping me find my purpose." - Trina
I feel incredible and totally different, yet the same. Jo is back!
When I met Corliss at one of her conferences, I was lost and very unsure of myself. I felt like I was going a million miles an hour in a million different directions and getting nowhere. I had lost the sense of meaning and purpose in my life. I also knew if I didn't make a change I was never going to get out of the rut I was in. Corliss shared how she herself decided to invest in herself and when she did things started to look and feel differently. Her words really spoke to me and I couldn't stop thinking about how I felt after the conference and all the takeaways I learned. I didn't want to stop. I knew I needed to do this differently. I enrolled in her classes and challenges and they guided me back to finding myself again.
I feel incredible and totally different yet the same. Jo is back! I didn't realize over the years dealing with a whole lot of change and challenges how much I lost who I was. I feel the best I ever have. I call it my re-birth! I am once again confident in who I am and in my abilities. I have forgiven myself, have accepted, and made peace with my past. This was a huge step forward and because of it, my power within has returned. I will NEVER NOT LEAD MY OWN LIFE AGAIN. Corliss taught me the tools I need to have in my mental toolbox to conquer my fears and insecurities. I am so proud of myself for doing the real work to get here. I adore Corliss and I can never articulate into words how much she and the community of women who've come along beside me have impacted my life and my soul. I am immensely thankful for betting on myself and trusting Corliss to lead me on this journey.”

I celebrate myself and my health each day.
“I first found Corliss in March of 2021. I was a year out from my double mastectomy surgery from bilateral breast cancer. The anniversary brought a ton of emotions that I was not prepared for, I was also having some personal challenges and it was all just very overwhelming. My mind felt like it was going to explode most days and I knew I needed help. I saw a Facebook share from a friend on the Best You Challenge that was being offered by Corliss and I thought well maybe this would be a good place to start! That challenge ended up saving my mind. It gave me clarity and focus away from my scattered thoughts. The lessons taught me to celebrate myself, accept myself and love myself. I learnt how to focus on what I wanted to grow in my life, to set boundaries with certain people, and most importantly that the only person I could change was myself. This one challenge changed my mindset and my focus. Something so simple, yet it taught me that I have the power within me to change how I looked at things. I have continued my work with Corliss through her monthly coaching, 7 Day Reset challenge, another Best You challenge, the Lead Conference, Vision Board Workshop, and currently the New You challenge. I even got in a valuable “Veranda Visit” for some one-on-one coaching! The added, unexpected surprise was a community of women who have given me the best support group I could have ever asked for, friendships that I know will last far beyond our journeys of self healing!” Today, almost a year since I started this journey, my mind feels calm and peaceful, I worry less, I don’t let negative thoughts control me. I celebrate myself and my health each day with an attitude of gratitude and kindness. I will continue to work on my myself through the valuable courses that Corliss offers until I am confident that my mind, my body, and my spirit are good. I made a promise to myself to never again let my mind feel so out of my control and I know that no matter what happens in my life I now have the tools I need to be ok. Thank you Corliss!

I truly believe that it is no accident that Corliss came into my life.
"I first met Corliss in 2017 when I attended her Lead Your Life Conference with a group of friends. Corliss came across as authentic, she was motivating, and her vibrant energy was contagious. I immediately knew that I wanted to work with her in some capacity. During that time, I was running a busy full-time pre-school, writing children’s picture books, and working on a personal development program for young kids. Oh, and I decided to dabble in an MLM venture on the side. Although I enjoy teaching, I felt overwhelmed, overworked, and stuck. A couple of months later a friend of mine arranged an intimate vision board workshop with Corliss and for the first time in a long time, I set my logical mind aside for a few hours and allowed myself to dream bigger. I didn’t realize it at the time, but that workshop had a profound effect on my life path. Since that workshop, I have made many of those big dreams a reality, including working with Corliss. Yes, I had a picture of Corliss on my vision board. Masterclass helped me find clarity and a couple of one-on-one coaching sessions with her strong leadership, allowed me to sort through overwhelm and define my purpose. Thanks to Corliss’s programs and mentorship I have been able to step into my zone of excellence. I am proud to say that I am a published children’s picture book author and thanks to Corliss I am finally ready to share my empowerment program with children around the world as I launch my course and build my dream business. One of my favorite quotes is from a children’s movie called Kung Fu Panda and it’s, “There are no accidents”. I truly believe that it is no accident that Corliss came into my life. We were meant to cross paths and I am truly a better person, teacher, wife, and mother for it. Thank you, Corliss, for encouraging me to bravely step into the woman I was born to be."

My vision and my purpose are clear.
"When I first “met” Corliss I was drawn to her inspirational energy. I do believe everyone comes into your life at the right time. Now that I turned 50, I have declared this to be the best decade ever and it's time to put myself first again. Working with Corliss has taught me so much about myself. How I have the power to change the channel in my head and fine-tune my vision. Most of all, after years of celebrating my kids' successes, it’s time to celebrate mine and me.
The masterclass program was especially powerful for me. I loved the small class group and the strong community it created! There was a lot of content in a short period and it was inspirational to watch the change in everyone each week. I graduate from this class with many great tools creating a solid foundation for my personal best decade. Thanks to Corliss and the Masterclass, my vision and my purpose are clear; for me, my career, and my business!!"

I am now living my best life!
"At the end of 2020, I was coming out of a fog after trying to adjust to all the changes and carrying worry for everyone around me. When I found Corliss I was pivoting and shifting my focus to ME for 2021, and taking care of all things me. I expected my biggest focus to be on my physical health however things quickly moved to my personal development. PD is something I have placed importance on inconsistency over the past number of years, however one little 21 Day challenge in January had such great impact on me, I continued my momentum with another challenge in February and enrolled in her Masterclass shortly after. By working with Corliss, I reconnected with many of the personal development lessons I had previously learned and had so many more aha moments. Being part of groups of like-minded people and sharing in our journeys also had a huge impact on me. For me, the key was continuing consistency and allowing the momentum to continue. Just as I plan healthful eating and exercise programs for my physical health, I am planning programs for my mental health and personal development. In a few short months, my life has been filled with abundance from connecting with Corliss and others to starting a side biz, accepting an offer of change in my career, and embracing all that continues to come. I am living my best life and have felt the lightest, most grounded and connected to my true self I have ever felt!"

I changed my perspective and my life.
"During COVID I was diagnosed with breast cancer and the delay in treatment caused me to become frustrated and depressed. It seemed like there was nothing I could do about it. By taking both of Corliss’s challenge programs, The Power of You and The Best You, I changed my perspective and my life. I became positive, upbeat, goal-oriented and, focused on things that I could change. The monthly, themed coaching meetings connect me with like-minded women who share their stories and experiences in our supportive group. They help me move forward and lead my life rather than being passive and letting life lead me. Corliss’s podcasts provide life lessons and learning from a variety of people, some who are well-known and others who are every day folks, like her mom. Corliss is an inspiring leader and coach who continues to amaze me with her comprehensive, holistic approach to personal development. I am so grateful to have found her."

I went from wishing and hoping, to doing and achieving!
"When I started working with Corliss I was stuck in a cycle of fear of failure and self doubt. I had invested so much time learning a new career skill set but was still afraid and wondering “what if I can’t do it”. I was torn between being realistic and practical and daring to go for the BIG vision! This doubting and wondering left me feeling depleted of energy and joy. Working with Corliss helped me realize I was guided by other peoples opinion. I grew up in the public eye as my Dad was a public figure and that shaped my thinking and my belief. I was very good at standing on the sidelines and cheering for everyone else. Working with Corliss I realized I had created a persona that didn’t fail nor dare. It helped me identify where my limited thinking was coming from. Corliss helped me take inventory and I realized that I had been an observer rather then a participant in my own life to some degree. That was hard for me to acknowledge, but life changing. I’ve said this before and I will say it again, Corliss pulled me out of the confines of my past and helped me map out my future. I went from wishing and hoping, to doing and achieving. The month following her mentorship I reached my goal of earning 10K and no longer do I fear to stumble on my way to greatness. Life is a gift and I’m embracing all it has to offer! I still have some pretty big and slightly scary things on my bucket list but have learned to navigate through the fear to do it anyway!
Words can not express my gratitude for Corliss’ knowledge, guidance, and unlimited support."

Through Corliss’ coaching, I rediscovered myself.
“When I started working with Corliss, I was at what I felt to be a crossroads in my life having lived many years on autopilot raising my children and building a career. I had just sold my business and my girls were raised and independent, so what now? I had lived my life defined by two roles, businesswoman and mother, both accomplished but where to go from here? Who was I without those titles, and those roles? Through Corliss’ coaching, I rediscovered myself. She provided a safe environment where I could dive into my past to identify negative thoughts and beliefs, taught me how to release what no longer served me, to change my self talk so I could move forward in positivity and growth. I have learned that it’s okay if I am not everyone’s cup of tea. If I live my life with true intention, using my huge heart and kindness to guide me, then the only opinion that ever matters is mine. It’s okay to be my perfectly imperfect self. How amazingly freeing!! Because of my newfound acceptance, I have learned to find purpose in every single day, I have stepped out of my comfort zone, leaned into new experiences and most importantly I have trusted that I have, and am all I need, to achieve whatever my heart desires. It’s a beautiful place to live.”
-Jackie
Corliss showed me I have the power to change my own life.
“When I started working with Corliss I was surviving not living. My self-worth was next to nothing, I was always worrying about what other people thought of me, if they accepted me or if they liked me. I was in a rut with no hope left. I needed to work at figuring out who I was as a person. The real person, not the people pleaser, or the mom but who was the real me.
By working with Corliss, I now understand that I have the power to change my life by shifting my thoughts, making new decisions, and taking different action steps. I’ve learned how to set reasonable goals and to live my life with purpose and intention. I have learned to fill my life with healthy habits, positive thoughts, and self-talk. I have taken away all guilt of feeling selfish for taking care of myself first.
Now I am feeling so very proud and excited about the growth I have made, changes in my thoughts, and how I choose to respond to situations. This is who I am and who I want to be, and I am enough!”
-Tami
I am feeling empowered.
“When I started working with Corliss I was at a crossroads in my life. I have a great life, a supportive husband, a good job, and healthy kids, and yet I still felt like I was missing clarity on some very important things. I still wasn’t fulfilled, and the things that usually motivated me just weren’t working. Like so many people, I’m sure the changing environment played a part in that.
When I found Corliss, I found that her energy gave me energy! I embraced her coaching style and found that I was starting to look at life in a different way than I had before. It felt so good to have clarity for my goals, a renewed sense of purpose, and a new network of amazing and supportive women. I found that by putting me first again I was able to be who I wanted for those I love and care most about. I have always wanted to make a difference in the world for the greater good, but I just didn’t believe I had the power to do that and didn't know where to begin. I found the answer- it had to start with me.
Now I am feeling empowered, and I know that I can take the skills that I have developed through my knowledge of “the power of one” and create a dynamic shift in my life. I am a strong, confident, leader and I will make a difference and you can too! And that’s the truth!”

I now believe I can achieve anything I set my mind to.
"I first started following Corliss on social media during Covid and took advantage of her free workshop on Facebook. I loved her message and it resonated with me! That free 3-day coaching session really helped me navigate through some difficult decisions at the time and I thought I wonder what else I can learn through her. Investing in programs with Corliss has proven to be one of my best decisions so far!
By working with Corliss, I have been able to develop my skills on social media, which has really helped my businesses flourish! She led me to examine my values and set some personal and professional goals. Through this process, she has helped me acknowledge all the lessons of my past and be more comfortable sharing my story.
Her professionalism and guidance are exceptional! I am so grateful to have met Corliss and able to work with her. I feel proud of my accomplishments and I’m living each day with more joy and purpose. I now believe I can achieve anything I set my mind to. I am so excited for my future!"

Each time I come into a course with Corliss, I am entering into them as a more powerful me.
“I started working with Corliss in 2017 when I attended her very first Lead Your Life Conference. I was restarting my life after divorce, had just dropped my daughter off at University in Halifax, and was searching for who I was, what my purpose was, and if I even had a purpose now. I was alone and that feeling overwhelmed me. I couldn’t stop crying. After I flew the 3500 miles back to Saskatchewan, I knew I was coming home to an empty house and it was like there was nothing left. I felt like I was nothing.
The conference was amazing, and I truly knew that day I shifted and realized, that “hey, I have choices!” I knew I needed more support, so I register for her Masterclass which helped me shift further into me again. As I started to move forward, I continued to stay connected to Corliss and enrolled in her other programs like the Power Of You 21-day personal growth challenge and now I am in a new place and excited to be involved in her online Masterclass for 2021.
By working with Corliss, I have learned to embrace who I am. I was able to realize the bullshit beliefs and limitations I believed to be true that held me down like I was wearing cement shoes. She helped me work through feelings of abandonment, unworthiness, and not enough. She made me realize I’m special and capable of creating a beautiful life for myself when I didn’t think it was possible.
Now, I’m feeling so empowered in my own skin. I’m seeing and receiving opportunities I didn’t think possible and used to scare the shit out of me, but I’m doing them anyway! I’m making choices through fear and learning new tools to help me create and continue my beautiful life. I am on fire! I’m doing things I never thought possible and I’m doing them because I am capable so I’m not afraid to take risks. Each time I come into a course with Corliss, I am entering into them as a more powerful me, I’m never in them for the same reasons because I shift and evolve each time. Corliss helps me to unravel my brain so I can create clearer.
I am so grateful to have this mentorship close to home. The connections I’ve made with others in her groups have been a huge support and key to my confidence and success. This is a place where I can be vulnerable, honest, and authentically me without judgment. A place where I’m learning to own who I am and love who I am. I am blowing my mind creating a beautiful life. Thanks, Corliss!”
- Kelleen
I am bravely leading my best life.
"When I attended the very first Lead Your Life conference where I met Corliss, I was numb after experiencing trauma. I was struggling with anxiety, lacked confidence in myself and most days just went by in a blur. I knew I didn’t want to stay feeling that way so in desperation I registered for the conference and sheepishly took a seat at the back of the room. I am so glad I made the decision to go because something clicked that day. I felt myself shift through the inspirational speakers and throughout Corliss’ presentations. I found the courage to go up to Corliss to meet her and was greeted with kindness and felt like I was the only person in the room. When I look back on the last few years, I am really amazed at how far I have come and feel really proud of myself. I am so much more confident, have been able to find my excitement for life again, and have healed through the trauma. Corliss helped me bring out who I am, and I am truly grateful. She is born to do this, and I am glad she has followed her calling. I have learned to trust myself, have courage and feel purpose in my life again. I have embraced self-love, feel worthy, and accept myself much more than I used to. I am now addicted to personal growth and never want to stop learning about myself as each time I take a class, workshop, attend an event, or participate in a challenge, I discover something more. I never want this feeling to end and recognize it’s a journey and one I am excited to be on."
