@jordanguildford , Founder/ CEO of Gems for Gems will be your host for our IGNITE event!!! “See the problem, find the solution, then activate...” Creating an environment where the community could come together and collaboratively create change has given life to Gems for Gems and purpose to many who felt their contribution was too small to be valued.

*Do what you were born to Do* Many of us have a longing for a different way of life.... A different career... A different home... A different marriage.... l believe we mistake the reason you were put here DESPERATELY SCREAMING to be fulfilled for the above wants. We know this to be true when we can honestly say that the real ‘difference’ we are looking for is in how WE FEEL every day. That new house, new partner, new job.... none of those will permanently quiet that voice inside us because unless we are doing something that connects to our soul (spirit, heart or whatever word you want here😉) you will NEVER live from a place of true joy. I stumbled on this reality through Gems... I didn’t know the hole, well, pit, inside of me existed until it started to be filled.... Once it started to be filled, EVERYTHING changed. I was experiencing EVERYTHING through this new perspective. Spend time on this my friends.... Maybe that looks like meditating... Or maybe... Sitting down and writing out anything and everything that ignites your ‘soul’... Whatever method works for you, do it. Our time is short even when we are among the lucky ones who live to old age. Comfort can be deceiving. It can make us feel like we are doing well because we can ‘tick the boxes’... but comfort keeps you still. Challenge yourself to grow every week, or every day If you can! Find your purpose and TAKE ACTION. If we all take action, nomatter how small, imagine the world we would live in... Imagine the life you would have... Imagine the example to others you would set... Imagine the impact you could make.... 💎ACTION IGNITES AND UNITES💎 One life. Live it well. #gemsforgems #endthecycle #bethechange I highly recommend this video as a start ♥️ https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=p0p1fjLPjYQ .***Photo credit: @avenuemagazine #top40under40 #calgary #jordanguildford #gemsforgems #endthecycle #bethechange #actionunites
You can work so hard and for some, it will never be enough. Gratitude, love and acceptance from others can feel like moving targets. This is why they must never be the goal. ⭐️ ⭐️ Be grateful for every new day you are given.... Love yourself and humanity, even when it is not returned.... Accept YOURSELF for the good and the bad and work to be the best you can be... ⭐️ ⭐️ Peace comes from within. #gemsforgems #endthecycle #bethechange #peace #strength #gratitude #love #jordanguildford #community #togetherstronger

Congratulations Sheri Rouse on being the November Gem of the Month! This amazing woman joined Gems for Gems as an Ambassador and has hit the ground running! When the Ambassador Management team was being formed, she instantly put her name forward and became the New Ambassador Coordinator. In this position, Sheri has personally processed over 50 new ambassadors, she has hosted jewelry packing events and has also stepped up to assist in creating new policies for Gems! Most recently, Sheri represented Gems for Gems as Roz Savage’s guest (four- time Guinness Book of World Records holder) at a gala where Roz was the keynote speaker. Sheri has also assisted in creating the partnerships soon to be announced with some incredible Calgary based businesses! Sheri, we truly don’t know what we would do without you. Thank you and congratulations for being chosen as the Gems for Gems ‘Gem of the Month’!

The August ‘Gem of the Month’ is Dalyn Sjogren-Daysdream. Dalyn joined our team last year and hit the ground running! She owns and operates ‘Day’s Dream’ which is a beautiful spa in the South East of Calgary.

Dalyn has now joined the Ambassador Management Team as the Head of the Gems for Gems Jewelry Drive. This is no easy task yet the moment she was asked, she said yes. You are a joy and such a generous, humble and kind woman.

Our May Gem of the Month is.... @charla.gosselin !!! May 2019 Gem of the Month Charla Gosselin met Jordan Guildford randomly at a networking event; coincidentally the first of its kind either woman had attended! After speaking to Jordan and learning about Gems for Gems, Charla immediately knew Gems was something she wanted to be a part of! The Gems for Gems mission and vision spoke to Charla’s heart instantly. Gems’ unique, positive and forward-focused approach is more then a bandaid, it is a proactive solution to ending the cycle of domestic abuse. If you have the privilege of meeting Charla at a Gems event you will surely notice that she herself radiates the warmth and positivity of Gems for Gems and that is what our Ambassador Program is all about- being the presence of Gems for Gems in our communities! Since meeting Jordan last year, Charla has made an impact on the Gems for Gems charity event scene! Most notably Charla attended the TIFF gifting suite with Jordan, Michelle Edge (Chair of the Gems for Gems Board) and Alicia Dobranowski (Head of the East Coast Ambassador Team) in Toronto last fall! Together they educated and shared the Gems for Gems mission with all the celebrities in attendance! This incredible woman also secured a sponsorship from @norwex for $4000 in support of the Gems for Gems Scholarship Program! In her personal life Charla is a busy “hockey mom” of two growing boys. It is clear in leading by example, this Mama is raising her boys to become loving and respectful young men. This past November her eldest son Luke’s hockey team ran their own mini-jewelry drive for Gems for Gems! By collecting, cleaning, sorting and packaging over 4,000 pieces of jewellery to be given as gifts to the women living in shelters across Canada on Christmas Day, they shone light on an area filled with darkness. Given both their age and gender their actions were particularly remarkable but with a mom like Charla we aren’t at all at surprised! Catch Charla in action at the Gems for Gems public Zero to Hero at the @calgarylibrary Central, Sunday May 19th from 11:30am to 3pm! In the meantime Happy Mother’s Day! #bethechange #endthecycle #gemsforgems
