There is a specific kind of magic in the natural world—an alchemy that I first sought to understand by studying the migration patterns of salmon. I wanted to decode the mechanics of nature, but life had a more profound lesson waiting for me. Witnessing a family member’s recovery from MS through holistic medicine cracked open my understanding of what is possible. It moved me from the riverbanks to the treatment room, launching a three-decade mission to bridge the gap between rigorous clinical science and the invisible, guiding forces of spirit and energy.
My path has been one of constant "diving deep," moving past surface symptoms to the heart of the mind-body connection. My own life became the laboratory when I suffered a devastating setback from environmental illness; the simple act of moving into a freshly painted home became a battle for my health as varathane fumes overwhelmed my system. That experience stripped away the clinical detachment and taught me the truth: true healing is a physical and spiritual undertaking. Today, my work is dedicated to showing others that while science provides the tools, it is the alignment of our inner child, our nervous system, and our connection to the Earth that creates the miracle of a life restored.
A Holistic Roadmap for Your Healing. I believe that vibrant health is built on three essential pillars. My books serve as a "partner in your pocket," translating thirty years of clinical wisdom into practical guidance for each:
The Physical: Inflammation Recovery: Diet & Lifestyle Hacks
The Internal: Inner Child Healing Workbook: From Hurt to Whole
The Relational: The Attachment Toolkit series—specialized guides for Anxious, Avoidant, and Secure attachment styles.
Whether I’m skiing the crisp powder of Banff or helping a reader decode their nervous system, my philosophy remains the same: Joy and connection are the ultimate medicines. When the laptop closes, you’ll find me where I’m most alive: creating art, cycling the paths along the Bow River, or practicing a little kitchen alchemy on my AGA stove.
