about

Smiling woman sitting on chair, wearing a knitted top and pants, black and white photography.

Welcome! I’m Jillian~ a coach, artist, and strategic designer.

My life has been more of a mosaic than a straight path. I’ve lived many lives: the eldest of four in a military family, a global traveler by 18, a theatremaker and actor, an academic, sex worker, co-founder of visionary artist collectives, and now I work as a coach and strategic designer devoted to transformation, creativity, and care.

I spent over a decade in the performing arts producing and playing in award-winning shows across the world, on stages and screens big and small. Behind the scenes, I worked as a stripper to support my artistic career. Both worlds taught me about risk, resilience, and relational wisdom.

I learned that what mattered most wasn’t earnings, applause or accolades, but how the work felt: Was there trust in the room? Were we well in body, mind, and spirit? Did the process honour joy, belonging, courage, and care?

These questions inspired a new direction. I trained as a trauma-informed facilitator, conflict mediator, yoga and meditation teacher. I explored sobriety and committed to spiritual fitness. 

I completed a Masters of Design in Strategic Foresight and Innovation which strengthened my systems and futures thinking practice, business design and strategy skills. I began working with teams navigating complex change, and have been adapting some of the tools and frameworks to individual change journeys, a practice called Personal Futures.

How we show up for ourselves in moments of change informs how we show up for what matters most to us - and I’ve been honoured to witness and support the process of many others. 

My own journey has been shaped by initiating and working with change, and with others

I’ve walked with the shadows, said no to the ‘you shoulds’, and followed intuitive calls that made no sense at the time but led to everything I cherish now.

Becoming Futures was born from the belief that change is opportunity, growth happens in relationship, and that we all have the inner wisdom and power to make our dreams come true, one step at a time.

Our spiral model reflects the regenerative and non-linear process of change work and can serve as a helpful template for where we begin together.

We make time to integrate new insights, habits, and identities, so the transformation becomes lived, not just imagined.

Honour What’s Ending

Restore Creative Energy

Attune to intuition, signs, and possible pathways the future is calling you towards.

Align your path with what matters most. Ground your strategy in clarity so it is both resilient and regenerative.

Replenish your inner resources, protect your vitality, and spark your imagination. Rest, and weave in systems of care and play.

Every threshold begins with letting go. We create space by acknowledging the shedding or ending of, and what is ready to be born.

Wellbeing & Welldoing

Hand-drawn abstract shape in light blue-gray color.

We care about wellbeing: what that means for ourselves, other beings, and Mother Earth. We believe in interconnectedness, so we are responsible for our history, actions, attention, and impact.

Pluriversality & Intuition

We honour diverse ways of being, dreaming, and experiencing the world. Our work makes room for intuitive, embodied ways of sensing change — moving from places beyond logic alone.

Creativity & Imagination

Change is always in motion. Curiosity and creativity helps us meet it. When it comes to moving through complexity, we believe in the power of the imagination, both on a personal and collective level, to illuminate just and inclusive futures.

-Katy S.

“Jill’s coaching has allowed me to tap into my curiosity about my creative process and map my patterns and needs for a new era of accountability.

Her capacity to see both the big picture and the detail of now has been a breath of fresh air, instead of forcing myself through the same burnout patterns.

With Jill’s guidance, we have created a work system that is intuitively aligned with my needs.

Jill is an infinitely valuable collaborator.

- Rhiannon C.

“I recently worked with Jillian to prepare for a networking event I was feeling unsure about. Through thoughtful questions and deep listening, she helped me clarify my intentions and identify the outcomes I truly wanted. By the end of our session, I felt grounded, focused, and confident in my approach.

Jillian has a remarkable ability to meet you where you are, offering both practical insights and genuine support. Her presence is warm, intuitive, and empowering. I left the session feeling not just prepared, but reconnected to my purpose—and I’m already looking forward to our next conversation.”

-Melissa R.

frequently asked
questions

  • Though both can be transformational, therapy focuses on mental health and healing by addressing the past and working with emotional or psychological challenges.

    Coaching is future-focused. According to the International Coaching Federation (ICF), it’s a partnership that helps you clarify what you want, navigate change, and take meaningful action. It’s not about diagnosis or fixing — it starts from the belief that you are already whole, capable, and resourceful.

    Coaching and therapy work beautifully in tandem.

  • We meet on Zoom. You bring what’s alive for you — a challenge, idea, crossroads, or just a feeling. I might offer a grounding exercise to get us started. I’ll ask what you’d like to focus on and what success looks like by the end of our time together. I listen actively, ask questions, offer reflections or tools, and help you connect the dots. We mark where we landed by the end of the session: you leave with more clarity, actionable next steps.

  • That’s completely fine. You don’t need to come in with a plan every time! A lot of people show up in the in-between — overwhelmed, unsure, or just wanting more space to hear themselves.

  • No! You’re the expert on your life. But I will help you hear yourself more clearly so you can make decisions that are actually yours.

    As your coach, my goal is to simply draw out the wisdom that you already hold through powerful questions and exercises.

  • If you are looking for direction on a project, the Clarity Session offering leans closer to consulting. Depending on your goal (and what we agree to), our time together might still include coaching, but we will be co-designing a roadmap, which implicates more of my strategic expertise.

  • Somewhere in between. I’m comfortable sitting with mystery, intuition, and emotion and helping you make a plan or set boundaries. We can lean into the spiritual stuff — or keep it grounded and pragmatic. It’s your space!

  • Yes! Beyond 1:1 coaching, Becoming Futures also offers facilitation, research, and consulting for organizations, especially in arts, wellness, and futures/innovation spaces. Let’s talk!
