TOOLS & EXPERIENCES FOR CONSCIOUS CREATIVES SEEKING TO LIVE WITH INTENTION AND IMPACT
We create space for you to refresh your heart so you can serve your world from a full heart
You’re a meaning-seeker because you know that life isn’t all about material happiness. You grow through the highs and (especially) the lows of Life.
You care deeply about life and people (watching the news is sometimes too much for your heart to bear). You’re moved to action to help others in need and serve causes close to your heart.
You’re grateful your life is full, but if you’re honest, your heart is running on empty taking care of everyone else and making a difference in the world.
Doing something relaxing or creative is something you know you want and need, but it feels so hard to do on your own.
We see your heart. You’re long overdue for a creative date with yourself, or to share a fun meaningful experience with your partner, besties, or group.
We see you. We’re walking that road too.
Meet Justine, Social Impact Calligrapher, Creative Workshop Host
My aim is to empower you to refresh your heart by infusing self-care into your life with simple creative tools, so you can have the energy to show up and do the impactful work you know you’re meant to do.
My heart-centered calligraphy workshops create a collaborative relaxed space for you to show up for yourself and experience the peace and “flow” of calligraphy, so you can be inspired to re-engage your life and world with a full heart.
After burning out from a life of saying yes to everything, I revisited my childhood love of calligraphy and discovered its therapeutic nature.
I bring 20 years of experience designing and facilitating workshops, and coaching non-profit leaders in spiritual growth and community development.
I’m based in Vancouver, BC, but am known to have itchy feet to travel, especially for good food, connecting with friends, and taking creative leaps.

What Others Are Saying
Justine sets a beautiful tone that immediately puts everyone at ease and allows you to relax and become present (not something I find easy normally!). She brings something rare, which is a safe space to connect with yourself and others, to experiment (and make mistakes!) with zero judgement, and to spend a few hours being blissfully mindful.
I needed a peaceful creative experience so badly. Justine’s warmth made everyone at ease and created a safe and welcoming learning environment. It was a beautiful experience how Justine connected our hearts and minds while teaching us creative skills. Justine has a gift.
Justine’s ability to make calligraphy feel accessible and fun to all skill levels, facilitate open conversation, and build a sense of connection among a group was so inspiring to see and learn from. She made a phenomenal workshop partner.
