In addition to being a Wellness Coach, Cami is a dynamic and engaging speaker to general audiences on the topics of Emerge Stronger: A Path to Post-Traumatic Growth; Rock Solid Resilience; The Power of Positive Emotion, Strengths, and Thriving through Change; Rest: An Essential Self-Care Practice;  Stress Mastery; Mindfulness and Well-Being.

Guided Resilience supports those seeking to thrive at work, in their family life, and all dimensions of their well-being. The Mindful Pause process supports efforts to stop the incessant pace and intensity of life, breathe your way to stability and ease, think about your self-care and growth process, and choose a life of purpose and intention aligned with strength and values.

Guided Resilience leads to feeling grounded, growing, and gifted!

Cami’s husband, Steve, is a cardiologist and Cami’s window into the healthcare world for more than 30 years. Cami’s mother was a nurse and father was an entrepreneur, so her passion for Guided Resilience aligns with her familial model of service and disciplined commitment to personal and family well-being as much as her professional education and training.

Cami has three children. Her oldest lives with a chronic immune disease, her middle child works in politics, and her son experienced his senior year and college prep amid the pandemic crisis…so Cami’s own personal life is a petri dish for practicing Mindful Pause skills and practices.

Cami’s Standard Poodle, Rollie, is an important presence to her own well-being. Cami seeks out the healing qualities of the natural world… exploring the outdoors regularly for exercise and play.

Cami’s own resilience has been fortified by enduring the loss of an aunt and grandmother to cancer and parents suffering and dying from Alzheimers. Cami has met with support groups and faith-based organization to share how Guided Resilience can support well-being during difficult life moments and loss.
