About Me
Welcome to Dandelion Coaching, a space where growth, authenticity, and transformation intersect. I'm the founder, Geneviève LeDuc, and I'm thrilled to share not only my professional experience but my personal learnings, that are the very essence of Dandelion Coaching.
My own journey of self-growth has felt unmoored and aimless at times, like a seed being carried by a forceful wind. From managing a demanding career as a leader, to navigating grief, burnout, and a rare genetic disorder, I weathered the storm of life through trial and error, collecting a vast array of experiences and resources along the way that I'm eager to share with you. Ultimately, the very things that I thought were weeds in my life, were actually beautiful blooms that held new beginnings. By learning to nurture my tender self, I've discovered a path of acceptance, joy, and purpose.
I am committed to holding space for your stories, reflecting your innate goodness, and potential, and guiding you through your own journey of discovery, growth and expansion.

Coaching Through the Lens of a Dandelion
I believe that self-love is the seed that we all need to heal ourselves, our communities, and our planet. Therefore, Dandelion Coaching is not just about personal development; it's about creating a ripple effect of positive change. Through coaching, I aim to catalyze individual transformation that also fosters healing within communities and contributes to a positive impact on our planet.
