About Monique
Monique is a certified Professional Life Coach. Her passion for helping people started as a teenager and followed her through her years of experience, during the course of which she became an educator for children and teenagers as well as a counsellor and mentor to many. Now she has found an extension to her mission in life through Life coaching to serve others in a broader capacity and fulfill her heart’s desire.
Although born in Canada, spending over 20 years of her life overseas as a full-time missionary where most of her children were born, Monique served as a volunteer, educator and mentor to thousands from all sectors of society – adults, teens and children. These years of serving, formed her character and deepened her passion for people, helping her develop more compassion and understanding, having herself also undergone her share of struggle including experiencing the loss of two children. These years of struggle and loss have empowered her to share her experiences on how to overcome and find joy inspite of sorrow. This has become her driving passion.
Having lived in and/or visited many countries from North America, South America and Africa, also equipped her with 4 languages which enable her to communicate more freely with a wider range of people from different cultures.
Monique will challenge and encourage you to grow and progress, as she herself found the need to do so in order to rise above the complexity and obstacles of life.
What People Say About Monique
"Monique is someone who listens with her heart and sees you as a special person. She’s so positive about you that this, in itself, is a great help in motivating one to want to do his/her best, which makes for a good coach.
She has had a lot of experience working with people from different cultures and ages and this makes her very relatable. One feels at ease with her and it’s so much easier to open up and share our hearts, fears, needs, dreams and she shows so much empathy in your struggle, so much faith that you’ll overcome. This makes one feel that half the battle is won, but then, she’s still there to support you and walk you to the finish line.
If you need someone that believes in you and just wants to help you clarify your goals, crystallize your wins then try her coaching."
Maria Campos
"My coach of preference in emotional and spiritual matters is Monique Martel. A mother of 8 (you won’t tell!), a professional educator with many years of experience, a missionary to South American continent, a facilitator, an active listener, she is just the person I need, who can get on my wave length and transmit what I need to hear in ways that make sense to me.
Her trademark: a dazzling smile. She is cheerful, energetic, wise, empathic, and helpful. She is good at looking past the words and into the heart. Her style of coaching – direct, but careful. No beating around the bush, yet no hitting between the eyes either.
Other admirable qualities: integrity, deep love for the Lord, positiveness and being solution-oriented. She is definitely a leader and will pull you up to a higher ground from the deep pit of depression, self-pity, and other manifestations of wasteful negative energy. After a session with her you do see a light in the end of the tunnel!
I admire her practicality, lack of self-absorption during sessions, and professionalism. She connects remarkably well with people of different nationalities, walks of life, professions, and social backgrounds. She is a natural, and is easy to open up to. Monique carefully chooses her words – they won’t be many, but they will be tailor-made for you. She will handle your heart with utmost care.
Monique has been an immense source of encouragement to me in difficult times. Her coaching services help me make sense out of puzzling events in my life, complicated emotions and feelings, challenging relationships. This puts everything into perspective, enabling me to better understand and gratefully accept things that happen to me. And that translates into a lack of stress, better health, more productivity, peace of mind, greater happiness, gained experience, and continual growth for me as an individual. Last, but not least – she has a great sense of humor!"
