Empowering Lives
Silently constructed strongholds gripped my confidence, self-love, understanding of worthiness and manifesting abundance which developed during my formative years. In the shadows were subconscious barriers of limiting beliefs about: my happiness, joy, value, ability to succeed, living healthfully, financial security and body image.
I built the FORTITUDE to embarked on my own transformational journey to reach into the depths of myself and I learned how to create true love, health, success and abundance by shattering the strongholds of guilt, shame and scarcity. I awakened to the power of choice. The worthy, infinite being that I am and now I empower others to do the same.
My Transformational Journey Began 17 years Ago…
After returning home from a trip to Peru; where I climbed Machu Picchu. The experience was my inspiration, fueling my motivation and fortitude, with a vision to create a better life for myself and others.
After reading Deepak Chopra’s book, The Spontaneous Fulfillment of Desire, this was my turning point moment. Yes, it was my confirmation that everything in life happens for a reason and there are no coincidences. I contacted the Chopra Centre to inquire about some meditation tapes and shortly after I was enrolled in the Teacher Training Program.
The Chopra Health program was life changing; it taught me to live a more balanced life, release emotional toxicity and let go of those things which no longer serve me. Today, a Certified Chopra Health Coach, I share my passion to teach others the practices & techniques to acquire and maintain a balanced mind & body.
Building My FORTITUDE.
My life path is long, windy and complicated, but becoming the foundation for now my entrepreneurial path. A second generation immigrant, born and raised in Calgary, Canada, with humble beginnings. I graduated from the University of Calgary with a Bachelor of Arts degree majoring in Political Science and Communication Studies; with the dream of pursuing a career in journalism as a foreign correspondent.
I began working at age 15, in the retail industry to put myself through University. This part-time retail job turned into a retail career that lasted for over 20 years. Transitioning from fashion to interior design, and branching out to become a Co-Founder, Owner & President of Soho+Nada Lifestyles Inc. a furniture and home accessory lifestyle store in the design district of Calgary.
The view from the outside, life looked perfect, but it was so different from what I was experiencing within. I had hit rock-bottom, suffering from anxiety, I could barely drag myself out of bed. Not to mention, coping with insomnia, a toxic combination leading to complete burn-out. I made a conscious decision to part ways with a business partner, wind-down a home furnishings store and end my retail career. It was at this point, Fortitude For Wellness Inc. came to fruition.
