Hi there, I'm Shelly Carriere

I’ve come to believe that when mind, body, and soul align, a quiet, steady power rises.

But I didn’t always know that kind of power lived inside me.

For years, I chased worth in all the wrong places; through people-pleasing, perfectionism, and carrying more than was ever mine to hold. I felt anxious, overextended, and quietly burned out. But underneath it all, there was this persistent inner whisper urging me to slow down… and finally face what I’d been avoiding.

Through deep inner work, somatic healing, and a whole lot of soul-searching, I started peeling back the layers. I faced the childhood wounds, the inherited family stories, and the protective patterns I once believed were just “who I am.”

And I discovered something unexpected: I wasn’t broken.

The patterns that followed me into adulthood, over-functioning to keep the peace, absorbing others’ emotions, shutting down when things got too much, weren’t flaws. They were survival strategies. Brilliant ones, at the time. But they were now keeping me small.

What I thought needed to be fixed… actually needed compassion.

Those parts of me I’d been judging? They were holding the key to my freedom. The more I met them with tenderness and understanding, the more I remembered my wholeness.

I started healing deep attachment wounds. I navigated the pain of divorce into a mutually respectful co-parenting partnership. I learned to regulate my nervous system, not just to feel “calm,” but to feel safe being fully me. And eventually, I made the bold decision to walk away from a successful career in mortgages; not because I had it all figured out, but because I finally trusted the call toward something deeper.

THE BRIDGE

Therapy laid the foundation for my healing. Coaching became the bridge.

It helped me move beyond insight into embodiment. From self-awareness to soul-aligned action. It gave me a framework to step into a new way of living. Grounded, whole, and unapologetically me.

That evolution became the heartbeat of Beyond Freedom Coaching.

Now, I guide others through their own deep transformations, with the same grounded, soulful, forward-moving support I once longed for.

WHERE I AM NOW

Life still brings its messy moments, challenges, and growth edges. I’m not immune to any of it. But the difference now is I meet those moments with curiousity, self-trust, and resilience.

And because I’m still doing the inner work, I can hold space for you to do yours; safely, powerfully, and at your own pace.

If your soul is nudging you toward more, a different, deeper, truer version of yourself, I'd be honoured to walk along side you as you create it.

When you're ready for soul-deep support, I'm here.
