The Accidental Guru: How Life’s Twists Led to This

It all started in the most unexpected place—a high school classroom in Ontario. As a Family Studies teacher, she never imagined her career would take many twists and turns. But life has a funny way of pushing you in directions you never planned.

After two divorces and a stint in corporate training, she yearned for something more meaningful. She packed her bags and embarked on a cross-country journey from Ontario to the rugged beauty of British Columbia and then to the serene shores of Nova Scotia. Along the way, she dabbled in various ventures, including owning a bookkeeping business.

But it was in the digital realm that she found her true calling. With no formal training in technology, she developed her website and started writing blogs. What began as a hobby quickly became a passion for creating digital products supporting women 55+. Her unconventional path to becoming a holistic aging expert was marked by curiosity, risk-taking, and a relentless pursuit of personal growth.

She embraced the role of an “accidental guru,” using her diverse experiences to offer unique insights into personal development. Her authenticity and relatability set her apart, making her an irresistible force in the field. She shows that expertise can come from the most surprising places and that the journey to self-discovery is as important as the destination.
