Sebastien Rioux
Leadership Coach
Mountain Air Coaching
What ignites my passion is working to foster healthy relationships and develop leadership within teams, organizations, communities, and individuals. My life and work has taken me far and wide, from the boreal forest of Alberta to the plains of the Serengeti, from mowing grass to flying planes. More specifically, I have experience in startups and large bureaucracies in social enterprise, the Canadian Forces, wildfire fighting, and the renewable energy sector. In these wide explorations I’ve discovered that my calling is to help people find peace in the uncertainty of life so they may let the best version of themselves shine through.
When you work with me you will sense my presence as someone who highly values integrity, authenticity, and the courage to go wherever speaking our truths takes us. I am inspired by ancient ways of knowing and being while having a foot in our modern world. I’m fuelled by wonder and curiosity. I find strength from connection to the land and nature. I appreciate the reciprocal relationship of death, decomposition and grief with life, growth, and celebration. And I take an approach to my work that encompasses mind, body, spirit, and emotion.
But mostly, I try my best to be a friend to life.
