Kerisma Vere is a writer and coach based in Aldergrove, British Columbia. Her work is rooted in both personal transformation and a passion for helping others develop a kinder, more compassionate relationship with themselves — a shift she believes leads to stronger connections with others and a richer quality of life.

She brings lived experience and formal training to her work, holding certifications as a personal trainer and in nutrition, alongside a college education. With integrity, compassion, and a deep belief in paying it forward, Kerisma writes with honesty and heart about what it means to create lasting, susta

“Patience & Perseverance in all things is my way forward”
Kerisma A Vere

“Learning and transformation happen in layers. We rarely uncover every layer the first time we encounter something, no matter how hard we try.”
Kerisma A Vere, The Light Switch Myth: A begginer's guide to creating realistic and sustainable change

“one little trick I have found helpful: I often ask myself , what direction are your feet pointed? Even if I dont have it in me to move forward, simply setting the intention-imagining my feet pointing forward-can reframe my sense of progress”

“Learning and transformation happen in layers. We rarely uncover every layer the first time we encounter something, no matter how hard we try.”
Kerisma A Vere, The Light Switch Myth: A begginer's guide to creating realistic and sustainable change

“The ability to do hard things is perhaps the most useful ability you can foster in yourself or your children. And proof that you are someone who can do them is one of the most useful assets you can have on your life resume.

Our self-image is composed of historical evidence of our abilities. The more hard things you push yourself to do, the more competent you will see yourself to be.

If you can run marathons or throw double your body weight over your head, the sleep deprivation from a newborn is only a mild irritant. If you can excel at organic chemistry or econometrics, onboarding for a new finance job will be a breeze.

But if we avoid hard things, anything mildly challenging will seem insurmountable. We’ll cry into TikTok over an errant period at the end of a text message. We’ll see ourselves as incapable of learning new skills, taking on new careers, and escaping bad situations.

The proof you can do hard things is one of the most powerful gifts you can give yourself.”
Nat Eliason
