Grit Vancouver Our goal is to give people the tools they need for brain-health + emotional resilience.

Using science-backed resources, we teach about the neuro-science of mental agility for a lifetime of emotional intelligence.

You’ve been through some s**t. And you figured it out. Every single time so far - that’s a pretty great track record.

I call it your resilience reserve. And it’s the thing we can draw on when life starts to spiral.

Come spend a Sunday afternoon building yours. We’ll talk about how elite athletes use stress, how to turn a stress response into a challenge response and how to trust ourselves to handle whatever comes.

Our next round of Grit Lab is almost here, and there are still spots for your kiddo to hop on the brain-train!

Grit Lab is where kids (ages 8-11) learn the neuroscience of big feelings and build tools for emotional resilience. We play games, make crafts, and have a ton of fun while growing strong, healthy brains.

This pod we’re diving into:
🛡️ How to diffuse bullying behaviour
🤝 Co-regulation (calm is contagious!)
⏸️ Impulse vs. logic and the power of the pause
🎯 Brain-boosting games for focus and executive functioning
🎨 Creativity as a mental health tool
💛 Values + confidence

Every week kicks off with a quick review, so new friends can jump right in.

Tuesdays, Nov 3 - Dec 15
3:30-5:00pm
North Shore Academy, 50 Gostick Way, North Van

Spots are limited, so DM me or tap the link in my bio to save your kiddo’s spot!

Stressed about being stressed? Same. Quite often actually.

What if stress isn’t the enemy? Elite athletes don’t try to crush it, they use it. Racing heart, sweaty palms, butterflies - that’s your body powering you up, not falling apart.

Let’s figure out how to flip the script together. Let’s train our brains, tap into everything we’ve already gotten through, and learn to use stress as fuel instead of letting it run the show.

Hey you - yeah you. The one who’s on the fence about doing the work. Curious about grey MATR but not ready to commit to the 6-week thing? I see you - all good.

Come hang out for a day. One 90-minute grey MATR, a little taste for anyone who wants to try it on.

grey MATR is grit for grown-ups: science-based, heart-led and built entirely on research-backed tools to boost our human experience. We dig into how our brains + bodies actually work (hello, vagus nerve, the most beautiful nerve in the body). We learn why stress doesn’t have to flatten us and can actually be fuel, amirite? And we practice riding the emotional wave so we’re driving the bus, not our feelings. We laugh, we swear, we co-regulate, and we finish with a sweet, long meditation to let all the dust settle.

Why come?
👉🏻Because nobody handed us the manual for our own brains.
👉🏻Because resilience is a skill, not a fixed trait, and you can build it like a muscle.
👉🏻Because we were never meant to do this all alone.

Let’s figure some s**t out together. Join me for grey MATR: grit for grown-ups.

Sometimes it’s just all way too much. The noise. The busy brain. The rumination. My brain can go from organized flow to chaos in a split second. Yours?

As my years progress (56 of them already for Christ sakes), I’ve figured out a few things that help. I haven’t mastered my mind yet - but I’ve been working on it and have a hefty toolbox.

If you’re looking for some tricks to slow the roll, I can help.

Come to grey MATR this Fall. And yes - we have a spot for you tonight. DM me.

Life is a balancing act - amirite?

What can you expect when you come to grey MATR?

We run science-based, heart-led workshops for people who want to dig into boosting their brain power. We learn about recent research, we talk about our own brains and we practice growing strong neuro-pathways through mindful meditation. We laugh, we empathize, we swear, we co-regulate and we make plans for how we want to move through life.

Grey MATR can help you keep it all in the right lane.
