Lydia Mattison

I am happily married for the past 27 years to the man of my dreams. We share our lives with three amazing children. They inspire me every day and motivate me torncontribute to the world and to see life for the wonderful thing it is. Marriage and Motherhood shows my commitment, responsibility, generosity, and loyalty. It has made me a good listener, communicator, and team player, all of which are essential skills for an ideal coach.

Our Family Business has taught me many organizational skills. Multi-tasking, prioritizing and motivating have proven to be valuable skills in coaching. I am responsible for the creative aspects of the business, research, designs and finishes. In this business we focus on creating exte al beauty, while I now assist my clients through coaching in making their life a creative expression of who they are. Once we feel beautiful on the inside we cannot help but radiate that brilliance on the outside, so that it affects all areas of our lives and touches all of our relationships. Awareness lets us see the beauty in our lives and by transforming from the inside out, we are able tornput our spirit into action.

I have co-facilitated, a series of intuitive workshops that help people tap into their intuiton, and develop their spiritual gifts. Because of meaningful life changing experiences in grief, which began at the age of 15 when I lost my brother, I have been able to talk with and help others walk through the process ofrngrieving and healing. It has taught me empathy and compassion.

I believe that I have been unofficially coaching all of my life, even before I knew there was a name for it, because of this I was inspired to enroll in a training program with an internationalrnorganization - The International Coach Academy - accredited by ther International Coaching Federation. I have had both the experience ofrnbeing coached and coaching others and I am part of an extremely resourceful coaching community. Having graduated a Certifiedr Professional Life Coach from International Coach Academy, I am passionate and inspired to work with Teachers and learners to create inspired learning in our Educationrn, here in Trinidad; an empowering space where teachers love to teach and students love to learn.

I work with clients who are overwhelmed,confused, and stressed, byrnlove, life, and loss and who are seeking to rediscover who they are, remove obstacles, find direction, get clarity, build confidence and make powerful changes. I help them to rediscover their values, dreams, and passions, and who they are, so that they become aware of their unique gifts tornthe world. I bring their brilliance into focus. I also work with clients who are suffering silently and alone in grief and need help tornmove through the process to restore heart and soul to the quality ofrnlife.

Through my internet radio Program An Empowering Space -Your Hour of Power, www.blogtalkradio.com/empoweringspace, I share wisdom, insights, power tools, tips and strategies with my listeners with the intention, to touch, move, inspire and empower through heartfelt communication. I invite guests and listeners to share their wisdom, and together we transform lives.

All you need is an Empowering Space, the space to focus on you.
