About Lianne Bridges

Lianne Bridges (MBA) is a Transformation Guide, Author, and Soul Midwife who walks beside people at life’s thresholds — guiding them as they cross from confusion, restlessness, or transition into deeper clarity, alignment, and purpose. After decades as a strategist and consultant in the corporate world, a profound personal loss awakened her deeper calling: to help others reconnect with their inner wisdom and design lives aligned with their soul’s truth. Since founding Designing Transformation in 2009, Lianne has supported clients across diverse seasons and stages — from young adults seeking direction, to midlife seekers navigating reinvention, to elders anchoring their legacy. Her memoir, Love Will Keep Us Alive, shares her own story of loss, awakening, and re-emergence — an invitation for others to trust their own path of remembrance. Today, Lianne blends Earth wisdom, deep listening, and multidimensional presence to create spaces where people feel deeply seen and supported. Whether through one-on-one mentorship, retreats, or her upcoming podcast, The Bridge to Soul Remembrance, her work is an invitation to step into the sacred alignment of a soul-led life.

Successful practices of mindful organizations

By |2017-07-13T17:44:01-04:00May 14th, 2010|Career and Business|

Where two or more gather…let them do so with consciousness Version Français I have spent over 25 years working and consulting for all types of organizations – big, small, public, private, for profit and not. One thing I have found to be consistent is a general malaise in these organizations. The unbridled pursuit of profit at any cost has left them with products that are commoditized, employees at the brink of exhaustion and environments and communities close to depletion. Why is this happening? To understand, I removed myself totally from corporate life and gained a new perspective. I left my consulting practice and immersed myself into the mindfulness community. I went inwards using today’s contemplative practices to gain insight.  I have been researching the most successful leaders in consciousness and sustainability looking for the best wisdom teachings. What I found surprised me and gave me hope. […]

Wisdom meets modern technology with a WOW!

By |2017-07-13T17:44:01-04:00May 7th, 2010|Career and Business, Education, Community and Leadership|

I was extremely fortunate to have attended the Wisdom 2.0 Conference in Silicon Valley last weekend. It is the first of its kind, bringing together leaders in new media and technology, like Twitter, Google and Facebook, with spiritual and social consciousness leaders. I first heard about the conference about a month ago from a friend.

April: A transformative month

By |2017-07-13T17:44:01-04:00April 27th, 2010|Guest Blogggers & Interviews, Mind, Body & Spirit|

Energy Posting By Brenda Harley Wild dreams and chaotic weather are continuing to reflect the inner turmoil that our earth is currently releasing, as we transition into a higher plane of existence. April is a transformative month and will continue to provide the impetus to re-write or do-over something from your past. Much like Judy Collins’ song lyrics, “I look at life from both sides now….” we are being invited to expand our point of perspective; to take a wide angled shot! Sometimes the tiniest details hold the most importance. My mother is visiting and it is a wonderful opportunity to re-live some old feelings. It is something like an echo and with my daughter also in the mix; I can see both the positive and negative traits. Those that a daughter may have perceived as negative, from the perspective of motherhood, now contain some very valuable positive qualities. It is a wonderfully expansive experience and I am grateful for the opportunity, as I watch my Mom interacting with us all. With both Pluto, April 5th, [...]

Michael Specter: The danger of science denial

By |2017-07-13T17:44:02-04:00April 14th, 2010|Shifting Perspectives|

What do you think? The pendulum has swung. Some, like Michael Specter, may say too far away from science toward the intuitive approach. It is understandable, because our intuition has been silenced for so long. I, like Michael, look forward to the future and think we are in the most exciting time in history. But not only because of the incredible advancements of science, but because I see for the first time in history an opportunity to integrate knowledge, science and technology with intuition, consciousness and spiritual evolution. The Dalai Lama embodies this new direction, embracing all that science and technology have to offer with a deep, inner spiritual practice. Best selling author, Daniel H. Pink, emphasizes the need for a "Whole New Mind" to approach the future, a mind that integrates the best of the left more analytical elements with the right side intuitive brain.  I believe that when we stop debating one approach over the other, and embrace a way forward that integrates both, we will see real advancements on this planet. One of the [...]

The Dalai Lama and Me

By |2017-07-13T17:44:02-04:00April 12th, 2010|Guest Blogggers & Interviews, Mind, Body & Spirit|

I recently asked Brenda Harley, who is a writer and energy healer in our local community, to share some of her experiences, insight and inspirations with DesigningTransformation.com readers. She immediately responded by sending me some of the pieces she has developed over the past few months. She suggested that I pick one that "calls out to me". There was no question, one certainly called out to me. The post below not only is well written, discussing a variety of important issues, but it takes place on the day my husband passed away. That date will be etched in my mind forever. Coincidently, at that time a friend had asked me to attend the Dalai Lama event, but for obvious reasons I could not. Here is Brenda's inspiring account of that event. By: Guest Blogger -  Brenda Harley 4/10/09 Sitting in the Bell Centre and feeling the energy of all those who earlier had wrapped the entire building in a ribbon of shared humanity; I realized the enormity of the moment.  It had all been orchestrated so [...]

The untold story of the 2010 Olympics

By |2017-07-13T17:44:02-04:00April 9th, 2010|Education, Community and Leadership|

Operation: "Flat Kerrsen" What began as a grade two school project later became a colossal endeavor, bringing hundreds of people together, including current and past Olympic gold medalists, rock stars and hockey legends, to share in the true spirit of the Olympics. It all started with a single note and a picture that was sent by Margo Johnston, Olympic organizer, to her friends and colleagues: I have been asked by a friend to help her grandson with a Flat Stanley project. Kerrsen is 7 years old and lost his father to cancer last year. He has mailed us his little flat self to explore British Columbia...and we are taking him to the Olympics! Your mission, should you accept, is to contribute to Flat Kerrsen's school project by making his trip to the Olympics unforgettable!" And unforgettable it was! There wasn't a more traveled person, albeit flat person, at the Olympics. Not even the press would have seen the events that he saw, nor met the number of people both behind the scenes and in front of the [...]

Believe and it will happen

By |2017-07-13T17:44:02-04:00March 31st, 2010|Education, Community and Leadership, Shifting Perspectives|

Often people ask me, does social media really work? It takes so much time, does it pay off? Is anyone really listening? There are times when the "mind viruses" even get to me and I question myself, wondering whether I can accomplish all I have set out to do. Last night, I went to see Deepak Chopra speak in Montreal. He was outstanding and incredibly inspirational, as anyone knows who has seen him live. This morning I was reminded of his "Seven Laws of Success". In particular, I was thinking of his sixth law, the Law of Detachment: Allow yourself and others the freedom to be who they are. Do not force solutions-allow solutions to spontaneously emerge. Uncertainty is essential on your path to freedom. As I try to detach from any particular outcome of my work, with the highest intention and hope that I can help others, I continue to post blog articles and communicate them through social media. This morning, I posted on Twitter an article on Smart Follow-ship that a good friend, Corry [...]

Searching for the genesis of deadly pathogens

By |2017-07-13T17:44:05-04:00March 31st, 2010|Mind, Body & Spirit, Shifting Perspectives|

Nathan Wolfe's Jungle Search What will you say when your children and grand-children ask you how we let our closest living relatives, some of the most valuable and endangered species on this planet, become extinct because we were not able to deal with the issues of poverty around the world? In regions of profound instability throughout the world, where we have intense poverty and growing populations without sustainable resources, there is serious food insecurity. The consumption of bush meat, which is linked to the cross-species transfer of the vast majority of deadly pathogens like HIV, is one of the central crisis occurring in our population and on our planet right now. The responsibility for solving this issue can not rest on the poorest and most vulnerable. There is no easy solutions, but if we neglect this problem, we do so at our own peril.
