"LINAW Retreat gave us a chance to open up, be vulnerable, release everything, understand each other, before we left the Philippines [to compete] so we wouldn't carry any emotional baggage with us.
This [retreat] experience helped us during the tour, allowed us to have a single goal--to offer our performance to God, enjoy the journey, and of course--we were there to win!"
-Mayo Robles, Kammerchor Manila Alto 2

"Intuitive art sesh facilitated by LINAW enables you to shut off from the outside world and focus entirely on the present. You'll experience a sense of peace and mindfulness as you paint, sketch, or write, giving your mind a much-needed break ❤️ "
-Inna Alyana Wong, MBA
"It really was a wonderful experience of guided meditation and then expressing oneself through art. We were seven participants in all, and I think everyone went home feeling enriched by the experience."
- Nina Daza-Puyat, Author
"I used to do journaling before and I would say this one is different, I was able to imagine myself in every colors and strokes I’ve made in my art. My goals, my struggles and my worth are all there! It’s an amazing experience because it helped me to reconnect with my inner self again in different way. I get to realize that I should not be harsh to myself in terms of managing my family, my kids etc. I get to see the good things in me."
- Juliet Rodriguez, Mom of 3 and Registered Food Technologist
"LINAW helped me clear my mind, be centered, and rekindle my passion for art. I love the way it helps me find my true self. I am forever grateful that Candice and I crossed paths. "
- Pauline Mae Granada, Social Media Manager
"Candice, as a former energy industry employee, did not just bring “Liwanag” during the session, but more importantly, “Linaw”. The first session was just the right kind of dialogue I wanted to have - safe but definitely exploring, difficult but necessary, tough but compassionate and loving. We waded through my mud and swamp until we found a clearing…clarity…Linaw. :)"
-Sol Echavez, Business Analyst
"If you're going through some rough times in your life and wants to have some form of peace and clarity, the lessons from LINAW journey will be a very good guide for you to cope with your daily life." - Jason Jumaquio, Artist
"Attending LINAW Workshop was a fun, colorful and insightful experience. Through the workshop I was able to write a mantra which has become one of my daily affirmations - "With gratitude, I affirm joyful abundance always." Thank you, C-an for the guided creativity and clarity."
"Colors of the Soul is quite an interesting event name to say the least. And it did not disappoint. The session allowed me to silence my conscious mind, so I can hear my heart better. In a way, I poured out and intuitively painted the answer to a burning question I have had..."
- Rhea Entuna, Marketing Professional
"I felt really seen and heard during my coaching session with Candice. She was able to help me know myself more and figure out what mattered to me the most. I am so grateful for the enlightening experience. " -D Dela Cruz, Artist
"It is my honor to recommend Candice as a Transformational Life Coach. It was a tremendously joyful experience working and studying with her. Her open, compassionate and genuine interest in others resonates with her style of establishing rapport and coaching alliances which contributes to the effectiveness and authenticity of her supporting others to reach their specific goals."
When words are not enough, let art unlock your heart...
that is where the conversation starts.
Hello, I'm Candice
I'm a Certified Transformational Coach and founder of LINAW.
My approach combines coaching and the wonderful world of art.
If you're feeling stuck or like your life is at a standstill, I'm here for you.
We'll explore what truly brings you joy and peace. You don't need to be an artist or have artistic skills for this journey.
Personally, I discovered the transformative nature of art when I became a mother. It's been helping me shift from self-criticism to self-compassion, and I wish it can do the same for you.
I believe we all have the power to create LINAW (clarity) in our lives.
When we gain that clarity, everything becomes more meaningful - our goals, our actions, and our choices. It's all about embracing newness, making courageous decisions, and transforming your life through joy!
Are you ready for your own transformative journey?
So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. - 2 Corinthians 4:16-18 ESV
