Hi,
I am Sandra Valks
My freedom and unapologetic self-expression has been hard won through decades of varied lived experiences.
Now, in my 7th decade of life, I’ve merged my background in Finance and my love for all things Communication & Toastmasters.
As a Communication Specialist, my calling is to help you bloom as an effective communicator and grow confident in unpacking the intricacies of money & complexities of emotional wellbeing.
What My Clients Say About Me
About
what I do...
MOTHER - GRANNY IN BUSINESS - SINGER - TEACHER - WAITRESS - FINANCIAL ADVISOR - TOASTMASTER - AL-ANON PARTICIPANT - DIVORCE SURVIVOR - WORLD TRAVELLER - ADVENTURER - PRISON VOLUNTEER - ALTERNATIVES TO VIOLENCE FACILITATOR - ENTREPRENEUR
The pleasure and pain of having worn many hats through this roller-coaster I call my life, has given me a sincere love and appreciation for the opportunity to spark joy and serve humanity till my last breath.
By pairing my compassionate straight-talk with my signature coaching process, I cut through the fluff to get to the meat of the matter that’s weighing you down, holding you back and entangling you in chains.
If you are coachable and truly ready to uncover your confidence in two key interconnected facets of your life (i.e., money and/or self-expression), then I’m a match for you.
