LET ME INTRODUCE MYSELF

Hello, I’m Jay Lambert, an International Coaching Federation (ICF) Associate Certified Coach (ACC) with a rich Métis heritage. With over 20 years of experience in healthcare transformation, particularly within First Nations environments, I bring a unique perspective to my coaching and consulting work.

My Unique Approach

As a coach, I blend Indigenous ways of knowing with evidence-based best practices to create a holistic and culturally sensitive coaching experience. My training with TAHI, the world’s first ICF accredited Indigenous coach training program, enriches my approach, allowing me to integrate diverse perspectives and methodologies. I provide a relaxed yet focused environment, helping clients to reframe their stories using a strengths-based approach. With my support, leaders tap into their innate creativity, resourcefulness, and wholeness, empowering them to achieve their full potential.

Transforming Challenges into Opportunities

My journey into coaching was sparked by a personal transformation. Overcoming burnout and adrenal fatigue, I moved from a state of health crisis to thriving. I have also battled depression and anxiety, and with the help of coaching and appropriate clinical supports, I am now medication-free. This experience, coupled with my Métis identity, has deeply influenced my approach to wellness and resilience. Coaching has been transformational for me, going from burned out, always tired, and experiencing a foggy brain to feeling and functioning better than I have in over a decade. This transformation has allowed me to get clearer on my life’s purpose and take transformational steps toward achieving it.

Cultural Sensitivity and International Expertise

With over two decades of experience working with First Nations across Canada and six months living and working with the Māori in Aotearoa (New Zealand), I have developed deep cultural sensitivity and expertise. My international work also includes contributing to the development of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) in the Philippines. My services are primarily offered virtually, ensuring global accessibility, with in-person coaching available in select situations.


The Gold Standard of Professional Coaching.

Anyone can call themselves a coach. But ICF-credentialed coaches are professionals who have met stringent education and experience requirements, and have demonstrated a thorough understanding of the coaching competencies that set the standard in the profession. Additionally, they adhere to strict ethical guidelines as part of ICF’s mission to protect and serve coaching consumers.

TESTIMONIALS

“Throughout our time working together, Jay demonstrated an outstanding ability to create a safe, supportive environment where I felt comfortable exploring and challenging my pre-existing beliefs. His understanding of the unique demands of my work, coupled with his focus on my personal wellbeing, made a significant impact on my approach to handling the emotional toll of my business.

A key outcome of our work together was a noticeable improvement in my ability to take care of myself while still delivering emotionally impactful workshops. Jay helped me to understand the importance of focusing on self-care and setting personal boundaries. This not only protected my mental and emotional health, but it also allowed me to bring a renewed focus and energy to my work.”

Shannon

“Jay’s Coaching, I believe, is largely responsible for the dramatic change in the way I viewed myself as a change leader. He is easy to work with, coaches creatively, and effectively directs questions to lead me to my own decisions for myself. He has been a true game-changer in identifying and enhancing the areas of myself that were impacted through experiences throughout my lifetime as a First Nations woman.”

Carrie

“I am beyond proud to say that I have worked through my plan and I have achieved what I wanted too! What seemed like a mountain to climb, has now become a slight bump in my past and I honestly don’t know if I could have achieved all that I have achieved in my businesses, without Jay’s help.”
