About me

Hello,​

         Hello,​ I am Maude. I am a Life Cycles Celebrant ® specialized in marriage and healing ceremonies, a transformation facilitator, an artist and a mother. I see myself as a doula for life transitions and I am serving personal and collective growth. Very young, my desire was to perform on stage and amaze people with storytelling through acting and singing. This desire for emancipation through art led me to deepen several tools of expression such as acting, somatic movement, singing, dancing, meditating, yoga, breathwork , etc. It was by realizing my dream of performing on stage that I had the chance to understand that for me, the show had to be more than just entertainment, but had to be at the service of life itself. Seriousely, I had no idea what that meant! Hahaha! After a decade, as an actress-singer, I decided to retire from the profession to explore this mysterious calling in me. I didn't know what to expect at all!  It is over time, and through my many researches, travels and explorations, but above all, by following the thread of my intrinsic interests, that I discovered Ritual Work. It's as if suddenly, all the pieces of the puzzle finally fit together. It is at the heart of this essential art form that I grasped my life mission; To restore meaning by adding resilience and beauty to the great passages of human experience, and rekindling the flame of unshakable love for life, as well as our sense of belonging to it. So I go back and forth between Canada and the United States, to offer transformation workshops and personalized ceremonies. It would be an honor for me to put my talents at the service of your unique transition. Hope to meet you,

 

Hope to meet you,

« In the end, we had much more than a standard ceremony; we had a ceremony that reflected our hearts and souls, that moved our friends and family, and that brought forth many laughs and many tears. Maude  surpassed my high expectations and gave us a truly personal experience. I truly cannot imagine finding a better fit for us as our wedding celebrant. »
