ARLENE - from Canada.

Arlene Wiggin from Canada- talks to the press in a recent interview!


1/What made you want to train to be a SoulKids Mentor?

I attended a talk by Vikas Malkani, the creator of SoulKids and was inspired by what I heard and could see the true passion and purpose behind this program. I was ready for a personal journey to enrich my life and I signed up immediately. I also felt that I would be a wonderful attribute to SoulKids with my genuine love and passion for children along with my previous teaching experience. Children are fascinating and rewarding to teach and a delight to learn from. Their pure innocence, willing to learn and thirst for knowledge enriches one’s life. As a mother of three teenagers I felt that the course would help me to become a better, more understanding and patient parent.


2/How did it affect the way you communicate with and listen to children?

I now talk and listen from my heart. I talk less and listen more. I have become a much better communicator with everyone in my life. Children learn by example so I make sure that I am the best that I can be. Lead by example and others will follow.

3/What is the most rewarding part of being a SoulKids Mentor?

The opportunity to be able to share what I have learnt from my SoulKids Training. This program has been transformational for me. I am truly passionate about sharing the teachings of SoulKids with children and adults too.
