Hello and welcome to my web site!

My name is Irene Roberts and I transformed the way I look at my life through coaching.  I am a professional coach having graduated from Erickson College International located in Vancouver Canada.

I have chosen the lotus flower as my symbol on this web site to represent the personal growth that people often experience in a coaching situation.   Coaching brings clarity and calmness to people and provides them with opportunities to expand and develop into the wonderful human beings that we all are.

The lotus flower is one of the most ancient and deepest symbols of our planet.   It grows in muddy water and rises above the surface to bloom with remarkable beauty. At night the flower closes and sinks underwater, at dawn it rises and opens again. Untouched by the impurity, lotus symbolizes the purity of heart and mind.   Its roots lie deep in the soil under the water. The mud in which the lotus roots grow represents material life, while the water through which the stalk passes represents the astral world. When the plant reaches the surface of the water and opens its bud to the sun, it represents spiritual being or enlightenment. The magnificent blossom unfolds gradually, one petal at a time, till full-bloom in the morning when the sun's rays touch the flower. As the lotus awakens and blooms at the first rays of the morning sun, the interdependence between the lotus and the sun is a symbol of love. The lotus flower represents long life, health, honor and good luck.
