CHOOSING COURAGEOUS WELL-BEING

MARY ELAINE KIENER

Director, Art of Convening Programs, PhD, RN (retired), Certified Convening Leader (CCL)

“Engaged, insightful listening that nurtures wellbeing at our learning edge.”

  • Relevant professional credentials include: RN (retired), PhD, Certified Holistic Stress Management Instructor, Certified Wellness Inventory Coach, Certified Focusing Professional, Certified Convening Leader (CCL). Owner and Creative Energy Officer (CEO) of ASK ME House, LLC.

    On a more personal note, my own life experiences have offered me countless opportunities to learn and practice the art of caring-for-self amidst challenging circumstances. I understand far too well the struggle to discover and honor one's own uniqueness within a world of self-proclaimed gurus and cookie-cutter solutions.

    I've been told I'm a wonderful listener - especially to those faint whisperings at our learning edge. I have a knack for asking insightful questions that invite a pause into a moment of contemplation. And, I’ve been described as a “transformation midwife” [NOT in the sense of “birthing babies”]...rather, helping others birth their own inner homecoming to their true selves.

  • I delight in helping others to artfully apply convening across all areas of their life--whether at work, home or in the community. And, I particularly revel in those moments during which together we traverse the enriching inner aspects of convening, inviting a deeper, more authentic wisdom to emerge. Either way, as I invite you to sense fresh thoughts and feelings, I will cherish your vision, honor your choices and witness your unique journey as you create your own richly meaningful life.

    How it works

    Most individuals have very successful sessions by Zoom or by phone. Alternatively, if we happen to be in the same vicinity, an in-person session can also be arranged. Once you’ve purchased, we’ll use my online scheduling link to find a mutually available time for us to meet. Upon request, I can record your session, and then send you a link to a downloadable mp3 file and transcript.

    After a session is booked, I ask for at least a 24-hour notice for changing or canceling the appointment. Every effort will be made to honor reasonable requests for re-scheduling. Cancellation of a scheduled session with less than 24 hours' notice may result in a 50% session charge.

    Meanwhile, if you have any additional questions, please feel free to reach out to schedule a free 30-minute consultation.

  • “I had wanted to connect with a professional who saw me as a whole person, physically, emotionally, spiritually. Mary Elaine is that kind of person. She is respectful of where a person is on their journey, and is there to support them in whatever way she can.” - L.S.D.

    “Paired with the strength of her knowledge and ability to communicate, Mary Elaine is gentle and humble; I cannot think of a better combination of characteristics for someone who is in the business of leading people to reach their full potential.” - E.D.

    “You have such a warm, positive, peaceful presence about you.” - C.W.

    “I am forever astounded by the power of listening. When I am deeply, unconditionally heard, I absolutely KNOW where I need to go.” - S.V.
