Background
I used to struggle with morbid obesity, depression, chronic pain and exhaustion until I discovered powerful inner resources, and my Inner Guru! Now I share my success, wisdom and products to assist others with their life journey. I am especially helpful to those who are not responding well to conventional treatments, and those who may be experiencing ascension symptoms.
My journey of discovery began in 2007, and I developed the material found in this website, over the next several years. As a result, I beat the odds and continue to thrive! I found health, peace, sanity, joy, success and much love; I even lost 178 pounds of excess weight! Today I continue to evolve and enjoy the life I have always wanted. Details of my journey are featured in My Story Parts 1 & 2, and in My Quantum Blog.
Although I began my private practice in the Comox Valley, on Vancouver Island, B.C., I currently am blessed to reside in the beautiful city of Red Deer, Alberta. In a region of rolling hills – home to Cree, Stoney and Blackfoot peoples – nearby streams and rivers, parks, trails and walkways make this a beautiful and inspiring place to connect and create. Life is good!
Philosophy/Mission
The body thrives when it has a mission, and there is no greater mission than to become the change we wish to see in the world. This is why I use a heart-centred approach to health, happiness and success, with an eclectic, love-based, harm-reduction program, based on multi-disciplined scientific and shamanic healing techniques.
In short, I am an educator, alternative practitioner, energy worker, and wellness coach. Click here to see my unique products and to see my helpful services.

Credentials
In 2001 I was awarded a Diploma in Women’s Studies from North Island College, BC. Today Women’s Studies is called Gender Studies, which is an interdisciplinary academic field that explores sociology, psychology, anthropology, media, and history, in order to research and critique societal norms of gender, race, class, sexuality, and other social inequalities.
In 2004 I was admitted to the degree of Bachelor of Social Work with Distinction at the University of Victoria, BC. I took a generalist program focusing on sociology, psychology, addictions and family counselling.
In 2018 I became an AGLC Qualified Cannabis Worker, (Alberta, Canada).
