Mental Health Advocate

5X Award-Winner Mental Health Advocate

I was honoured to be a Keynote Speaker alongside  politician, Michael A. Tibillo, Canadian Associate Minister of Mental Health and Addictions of Ontario, Canada. 


Back in 2007, I was diagnosed with General Anxiety Disorder and it totally took over my life.. I've been through divorce, lost my mother, lost my home, and lost my job. It was painful and I felt like a failure. So I got the courage, went to rehab and got help, The journey was a long road to recovery, but I now live a healthy balanced life.  Being an advocate is important to me because I believe the only way we’re going to remove the judgment and discrimination surrounding mental health is by sharing our stories. My life mission is to leave this planet a better place than I found it making sure everyone felt loved.
