Tracey MacDonald

Hi! I am Tracey Mac.

Thank you for your interest in The Gift of Shift. It is my first book! Prior to becoming a certified professional coach, I spent over 18 years as a dental hygienist and treatment co-ordinator with a passion for personal growth. My pursuit of that passion led me to a full career transition into coaching; ultimately, I have connected to my purpose and help others do the same. Because of our own life shifts, my co-author, Ann Papayoti, and I created this book to reach you and others like you whom we may have otherwise never met. We hope you enjoy the journey of each story and the reflection in your own time.

I am an international life, leadership and mentor coach. I am passionate about empowering people to expand their self- awareness, connect to their inner wisdom, increase their emotional intelligence and communication skills so they can achieve greater success, happiness and overall fulfillment. Through one-on-one coaching, workshops, seminars and accessible online resources, I assist others to lead their life with more confidence and clarity, have happier and more fulfilling relationships, and get more of what they want out of life both personally and professionally.

I attended the University of New Brunswick and Dalhousie Nova Scotia where I received my diploma in dental hygiene. I later studied at the Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching and have attained the International Coach Federation Accredited Professional Certified Coach level. Additionally, I am a Certified Practitioner of Neuro-Linguistics Programming, and am a member of the Association of Integrative Psychology.

Originally from Miramichi, New Brunswick, I moved within the Maritimes frequently and even enjoyed the sunshine state of Florida for a few years, before my husband and I settled in the Moncton, New Brunswick area . . . for now!
