Hi, I’m Francini—coach, facilitator, and the human behind LIV (@livvvingwell).

 

For a long time, I tried to meet every expectation: at work, in community, in family. On the outside, I looked ‘together,’ but inside I was anxious, exhausted, and carrying more than I could name on most days.

 

Like many first‑ and second‑generation folks, I didn’t always have language or safe spaces for what I was feeling. Mindfulness, grounding practices, and community support didn’t fix everything overnight, but they gave me small, repeatable ways to come back to myself. Over time, those tiny choices—one breath, one boundary, one honest conversation—started to change how I moved through my days.

​

LIV is my way of sharing those kinds of practices with others: especially people who are busy, tender, and navigating layered identities, responsibilities, and histories. I hold a grounding presence, teach evidence-informed grounding and regulation practices so clients feel seen, calmer, and ready to take brave steps. I am a wellness coach and do not provide clinical therapy or diagnosis.

​

I don’t believe in quick fixes or rigid routines, but in practices that meet you where you are — whether you need stillness, structure, or spontaneity. Honouring the whole of you—mind, body, and spirit.​  In sessions and workshops, I bring a mix of trauma‑aware mindfulness, coaching, and education.

 

I’ll offer tools and structure, but you are always the expert on your own story. My role is to walk alongside you—steady, honest, and gentle—as you practice taking up a bit more space in your own life. 

 

Because to live well, is not to be perfect — it is to be present, intentional, and vibrantly alive.
