This is what a Movement Mentor’s trunk looks like.

No two sessions (or 3) look the same.

Looks like Frisbee to some.

To me, it’s dexterity, reaction time, and coordination training in action.

This is what Movement with Purpose looks like.

Showing up for my clients is what I do.

The sessions aren’t always about what I plan.

It is a combination of what my client wants and or needs, and being able to adapt to their needs.

Using the right language by reading my client’s body language creates a safe space where they can actually drop their guard and focus on the task at hand, instead of being nervous to try.

Whether someone’s navigating ADHD, autism, a heavy mental health day, or fighting through recovery, the way I communicate is by understanding my clients.

I was fortunate enough to have a one of my cruise contracts out of New York City, roughly 6 years after 9/11.

As some of you may know, I was very into running and had done a few Marathons up to that point.

On the days that there’s transition between old passengers and the new passengers, many of us get to get off the ship and explore the docking city.

Since I was into running and at that point there were no smartphones, I decided to find a little part of the New York City’s Marathon route, I had no idea where I was going, and I remember stopping and looking and noticing where I was standing, behind me was ground zero.

The power or connection and movement.

First day back for the kids, and they are not the only one learning.

I’ve enrolled myself in an online course about stigma, run through CAMH, so I can better understand and help my clients.

I found my old anatomy poster which I bought in 2007 while cleaning out my fitness equipment.

I use to roll it up and bring it to sessions, pinning it on the wall so clients could see the muscles we were working out.

It’s been through a lot of workouts.

It’s heading to Oar Wellness now, along with a stack of old fitness books.

I work as a Movement Mentor with people who are in recovery from substance abuse, it felt like the right fit (pun intended).

07/02/2026

Looking at the stack of books, I’m reminded of how much has changed since I started collecting these back n 2010.

These books were my foundation for years, teaching me the technical side of training and providing me with many top notch exercises.

My career has always been about more than just sets and reps.

I started in community recreation back in 1999, and today, as a Movement Mentor, I’m bringing all that experience back to the forefront.

My work isn’t about the “technical moves” anymore, it is about the connection.

I’m focusing now on using sports, fitness & play based movements to support clients in the neurodivergent community, those navigating anxiety, depression, and substance abuse.

It’s time to pass these books on to someone else who can benefit as I did.

“Can we just walk today? I forgot my meds.”

So we walked, then a football appeared.

I show up for my clients and I meet them where they are.
