Quotes about change: "Feel your feelings through change."
Brigette Marquette grew up on a dairy farm, giving her a strong work ethic, which was to serve her well in the years to come. She married at 23 years old, and at around the same time, found a love and passion for pole dancing. At the time, this was new as a form of fitness, and Brigette describes the judgement pole dancers continue to experience.
Brigette’s life changed when she went through the trauma of her divorce, losing her hair, and then having to undergo a hysterectomy at the age of 34. She was under tremendous stress and was suffering from depression. At one point, her puppies were the only reason for her to get out of bed. Her turning point was when she decided she wanted to be proud of herself in 5 years, and she started to surround herself with people who helped her get back on track.
Values, hard work, and working at things she is terrible at have guided Brigette. Today, she is a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor and owner of Gilded Cage Counselling.
