Bio

Thank you for reaching out. It takes a strong person to ask for help!

I'm Skyglider - you can call me Sky. :) I'm a trained and verified listener. I'm 50-something (she/her) and live on the east coast of Canada.

I'm open to discussing a variety of topics, even if you feel it might be an uncomfortable one. I will not judge nor discriminate no matter your age, gender identity, sexuality, religion, race, or current state of mental/physical/emotional well-being. I will respond as quickly to your chat request as I can. :)

I am also listener peer support - A Peer Supporter provides empathetic assistance, encouragement, and understanding to individuals who are navigating difficult emotions after a challenging or triggering chat. Peer support relies on the idea that those with lived experiences can offer invaluable insights, empathy, and practical guidance to others in similar situations. So if you're a listener who is having a tough time after a chat, please feel free to reach out. I'm happy to be there for you!

Availability:
I operate in the Atlantic time zone, so an hour later than Toronto or New York City. I often have my status set as "offline" so feel free to drop a note. I do my best to respond within 48 hours of receiving a message. 

The world is an interesting, challenging place at times. Know you're not alone.

...See more Hi all. It's been quite a while since I've been in my Listener profile. When I left, I had a number of roles, but am unsure if those still exist or how much has changed in that time. My listener profile blurb needs to be updated, but not sure what to remove and what to leave. Hope my Listener friends from the past are doing well.

...See more I've been a listener for a year and a half now. And I'm in the midst of a self-care break as a I reflect on my roles here, and figure out what I want to be doing. It's so easy to immerse yourself in so many things here - support roles, being a listener, having different projects behind the scenes, supporting other listeners.... it can be easy to overdo and overcommit, and it's hard to identify these things in a professional way because of the anonymity here. And trying to figure out what I can do with what I've learned here, and apply it more in my offline life. I've been looking at this: https://www.integralcoachingcanada.com/programs Do I want to get into being a life coach? Or a support like that? I can see how being a listener here, how the active listening skills can really help with this, Questions, questions.... Has anyone else here faced this question or thought?

rainbow is very helpful . Healing begins the moment you acknowledge the wound. Sometimes a kind hearted person is required to make you feel better .
They were purely amazing. So wise, thoughtful and caring. They had a very quick response with thoughtful questions and comments. They shared some bits about themselves which really helped connect us and make us feel like we truly are equals. Humans. Loved the chat and will definitely come to them again! ❤️
