Helena A. DeBald
Hi, I’m Helena, and I am a misfit.
I’ve never felt like I fit in any single box, and I always knew I wanted to make waves. I felt called to counter cultures, fringe thinking, and spiritual hygiene, and to be honest, I am still figuring out how all my many passions fit together into my purpose.
But I know I am here to take people on journeys that allow them to access their highest and best lives. Some of my first memories are of being creative: drawing in nature, getting curious about the world around me and how I could impact it, and making meaning through art. That’s why I created Wild Life Artistry: to make sure people like me who help, care for, and connect others are also showing that same radical kindness to themselves.
I am a cultivator and caretaker of my clients.
Through my work, I share my vision of a world where everyone is in touch with their personal power and inspired by everyday creative expression. My goal is to leave everything better than I found it by bringing joy, enthusiasm, creativity, and fun to the work of helping you discover your Wild Life.
Wild Life Artistry is for you if you:
are tired of talking about inspiring and being inspired but don’t see inspiration in your surroundings
want to deepen your connection to your intuition and personal truth
feel called to unlock and then infuse drive and power into the actions of your daily life
know you are the right person for a joyous journey into transformation beyond your wildest dreams
Why work with me?
I have thousands of hours of mentoring, counseling, teaching, and coaching experience.
Since 2014, I have been working in education building programs which ensure equitable and enriching experiences for participants, both in group and individual settings. My M.S. in Counseling and B.A. in Communications & Fine Arts provided me the foundation upon which I built this business.
I love transformational work, and I am so excited to share it with you.
My Coaching Programs Are Proven to Work.
I am a certified Clarity Coach (June 2021), trained in a program which has been adapted from a graduate level course from Stanford University and has been delivered to individuals and groups around the world since the 1970s.
I am a certified Health and Life Coach (May 2021) trained by the Health Coach Institute in a coaching method used to help thousands of people.
The personalized programs I develop for my clients are proven to get people unstuck and help them get results.
I am a practiced creator with a deep passion.
I don’t just call myself an artist…I live that identity in my every day life. Creativity is a core element of everything that I do, and I am deeply passionate about infusing my maker identity into any project I take on.
I am passionate about building systems and cultures which will celebrate diversity of thought and passion in all its forms, and I welcome any opportunity to help shape a world filled with inspiration.
I have been making for my entire life, and I don’t intend to stop now.
WHAT I BELIEVE
With love and acceptance from affirming people, everyone can live aligned and in touch with their core essence.
Personal pain and suffering cost you more than any investment you make in being the fullest, most vibrant version of you.
Transformation can be fun and easy, and must include laughter, community, and radical joy.
People are inherently creative and resourceful, but they have absorbed programming throughout their lives and experienced realities which have told them the opposite.
Connection to breath is a source of personal power, greatness, and capability.
I believe every human being has inherent value and power. To create brave growth spaces where human potential can thrive and be celebrated, I commit to…
De-centering my privilege when needed and leveraging it when necessary to build a more equitable and just world.
Speaking truth to power, even if it is difficult or means my popularity will suffer.
Approach every interaction I have with love, empathy, and humility.
Continually question what I think I know while asking questions to understand, not to respond.
Approach everything I do with respect and a deeper contextual understanding of the ways in which power, privilege, and systems of oppression and trauma inform the people around me.
Bring radical joy into spaces I know will empower and mobilize communities to break cycles which have gone unchanged for far too long.
