Real leadership begins with the capacity
to
know yourself clearly enough
to trust yourself.

Jocelyn's storytelling is second to none and she splashes just enough humour in them to not only educate her audience but also entertain them. You won’t be disappointed!”

I felt completely safe to show up as myself

I came expecting a peaceful weekend. What I experienced was something far deeper.

I felt completely safe to show up as my authentic self, something I didn’t realize I was missing. The work with the horses and sound sessions helped me reconnect with how I truly feel without judgment.

I left with a sense of peace, clarity, and direction that is already shaping both my personal and professional life.

I have been amazed by it all. Jocelyn was able to create and guide me through a day that allowed reflection, insight, being courageous, and allowing myself to be vulnerable.

I enjoyed the time with the horses, and Jocelyn’s guidance in seeing a bigger point of view in how I can show up in the world. It’s been a remarkable experience.

I can’t recommend Jocelyn’s event enough.

If you get the opportunity, sign up and do it.

‘Cause it’s amazing and I think everyone has taken away something different, a little piece of their own and sharing that has been really been quite magical.

Calgary Stampede 2024 Princess Contestants

Speech Clinic, October 13, 2023

 

Calgary Stampede Royalty

As a Community Builder for the Calgary Stampede and First Nations Royalty Programs, Jocelyn mentors and supports the Princesses in developing communication, leadership and public speaking skills throughout their year of service.

While many people see the glamour of Stampede week, the role extends far beyond July. Throughout their reign, the Princesses represent the Calgary Stampede at nearly four hundred community events, schools, ceremonies and public appearances across Alberta and beyond.

One of the greatest privileges of Jocelyn’s work is witnessing the transformation that happens over the course of the year — watching young women grow not only in confidence and competence, but in self-trust, presence and authentic leadership.

Her involvement begins with all contestants, who participate in a communications workshop designed to help them strengthen presentation skills, build confidence and develop tools they can carry into every area of life — whether or not they are ultimately crowned.

An incredible experience. I learned life-long lessons that I hope to share with others. I feel much more confident in my speaking and am more open to learning from my mistakes.

Your support meant the world to me! I could feel you with me in every speech! 

Breanna Correia - 2025 Calgary Stampede Princess

I had many compliments on my public speaking and it is all thanks to you. I will forever cherish your help. With love.

Pacey Strangling Wolf - 2025 Calgary Stampede First Nations Princess

Thank-you for giving me the confidence to believe in myself and what I am capable of! I have accepted I do not need to be perfect but to keep trying.

Brooke Fielding - 2024 Calgary Stampede Princess

I had the pleasure of working alongside Jocelyn while volunteering with the Calgary Stampede Royalty Committee.

The commitment and dedication Jocelyn provided to our committee and to the success of the young women who take part in our program was exceptional. She provided such meaningful training and expertise that resonated with each of the contestants who took part in our Stampede Princess competition.

Whether it is during her instruction with an entire group or one-on-one, you get the feeling that Jocelyn is trying to teach you strategies that will genuinely improve your abilities and allow you to succeed.

I highly recommend having Jocelyn from The Cowgirl's Code be a part of your training program to help you achieve your goals.

Thank you Jocelyn!
