A White Canvas Primed With Possibility


Howdy, folks - hope all's swell out there in Alumniland.

It is with heavy hearts that we report that today is Sharon's last day at Compass - tomorrow she'll be packing up her giraffe ears and starting the next chapter of her journey which includes a move to the Okanagan and a whiteboard full of wide-open possibilities.

Here's the word from the Chief, herself:

Dear COMPASSITOS!

As many of you know, my fiancé Brad and I are moving to Penticton July 1st and it is my heart’s desire to paint, garden and have babies over the next while! (Yes, all that visioning has paid off!)

If my plans were any less wonderful, I would not be able to tear myself from the comfy confines of COMPASS and the amazing people I have had the pleasure of spending my days with here.

I have often said I have to pinch myself when I think I how long I have had the pleasure of working with people who all want to find more purpose in their work, understand themselves and develop their compassion towards themselves and others. I have received so much from you all and I have enjoyed each group immensely. It’s truly been a privilege being part of your journey.

All the best to you in the future feel and free to keep in touch over the COMPASS Facebook thingy. (Sorry Billy, I still don’t know what to call it)

Big hugs,

~Sharon



On behalf of both the staff and all the participants she worked with, we thank Sharon immensely for all her fine contributions throughout her many years of service at Compass and wish her the very best in all her future adventures.

Safe travel, Shari, and there'll always be a seat for you at the glass table.
