The effects of the constant abuse have been catastrophic for her family and have stolen her daughter’s childhood.

Becoming A High-Performance Coach After 25 Years In The Nightlife Industry w/Johnny Cantiveros EP 308 Apr 09, 2021

Show notes

Johnny has worked in the hospitality industry for over 25 years and was the general manager at some of the best restaurants & bars across western Canada. He met many people along the way and mastered the art of developing connections and creating beautiful experiences. It did come at a cost, however, and it became destructive and damaging for Johnny.

In 2018, he discovered Dr. Joe Dispenza’s meditation and yoga practice and had a huge turnaround, using coaching as a way to create deeper experiences. He is now one of 900 Certified High-Performance Coaches, a Rapid Transformational Therapy Practitioner and a Shiva Murti healer. His mission is to create a safe space for one to share the complexity of the human experience and express all spectrums of human emotions.
