I help women move out of overwhelm and reactivity and into calm, confidence, and self-trust.

Meet Nathalie LeFave

As a child, I often felt misunderstood. I believed there was something wrong with me. My emotional needs for love, encouragement, and validation were rarely met, and my childhood included emotional and physical abuse.

To cope, I became highly sensitive to other people’s moods. I learned to avoid conflict, please others, and work hard to feel accepted.

At 17, I left home to attend university in Canada. For the first time I experienced freedom, but deep inside I still longed for love and belonging. During those years I entered a relationship that mirrored the control I had known growing up. Because I didn’t yet understand what healthy love looked like, the line between love and control felt blurry. I survived domestic abuse.

After university, I built a successful corporate career. I worked long hours and pushed myself constantly. From the outside everything looked good, but inside I felt exhausted and disconnected from myself.

Around that time, I began working with a therapist who helped me start healing the wounds I had carried since childhood. Slowly, I learned to understand my emotions, regulate my nervous system, and respond with more awareness and compassion.

Eventually I realized I could not continue living that way. I left the corporate world and followed my passion for movement and wellbeing. I became a personal trainer and later discovered Forrest Yoga, which opened the door to deeper emotional healing.

Years later, when I became a mother, my healing journey deepened again.

I had always dreamed of having a loving, connected relationship with my children. But during the early years of homeschooling, many days were filled with frustration, tears, and yelling. I found myself repeating patterns I promised I would never pass on.

That realization changed everything.

I understood that my reactions were rooted in old wounds and beliefs that needed healing.

As I did the inner work, my relationship with my children began to transform. Our home became calmer, more connected, and more compassionate.

Today, with over a decade of personal and clinical experience in trauma-informed coaching, somatic awareness, Compassionate Inquiry®, Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT), yoga, and nervous system regulation, I help others uncover the root of their reactions so they can respond to life with calm, clarity, and self-trust.

Every experience in my life; my childhood, my relationships, my career changes, and my healing journey as a mother  has shaped the work I do today.

I believe that when we learn to understand our emotions and regulate our nervous system, we begin to respond to life with more compassion, clarity, and confidence.

And when we change how we show up, the relationships around us begin to change too.
