​Aug 1/21 - The beginning of a book series...

It is finally MY time to write these books. I decided to limit my distractions so I sold everything, my home, my guest ranch, my clinic space and put the money in the bank to travel and write these books!

So I'm settling into this new life! First Eastern Canada due to the unstable world travel situation. I had Bali on my bucket list of places to write but the borders closed so it looks like Europe and the Mediterranean are next!

I’ve been wanting to write a book series for a very long time. I went to a palm reader back in 2015 who asked me if I was a writer and I laughed and said NO!! It wasn't something that had even crossed my mind. He said he had never seen such strong "author" lines in a palm like mine and that I needed to write, it was my purpose on earth. He was pretty adamant about it... so I have had this "path" in the back of my mind since then. It is now the end of 2021 and I am finally on my way to writing, 6yrs later but better late than never!

Some history first...I always had a passion for nutrition but was not "certified" in anything along those lines so I decided in 2011 to follow my dreams and go back to school for Nutrition. My dream was not supported by my husband of 17yrs so I knew if I was to follow my dream I had to leave him. That was the toughest decision I ever made but I left him in 2012. We had a very comfortable life, 3 young girls and no financial worries at all but I had spent many years helping him build his business and I was disappointed that he would not support mine so I left it all. It takes a lot of courage to leave, to see my girls go back and forth between our two households for years but fast forward 10yrs now and not just my life, but the life my girls have now would not be what it is today if I hadn't left. Sometimes you don't see how it will work out when you start, but if you keep your dreams alive, taking things day by day, listening to the universe guide you to your purpose, things do have a way of working out.

You just need to have patience and trust in the process, and most importantly listen to the Universe....

So I followed my passion of health and wellness, went to school for Nutrition, Coaching, Alternative Therapies and Yoga and opened The Healing Center in Alberta and Balanced Whole Body Health in British Columbia, Canada and have helped many people but what I found is everyone is SO unique and need individual guidance in a quick and easy way. Everyone is busy and I couldn't not find a health book out there that can sum it up for each individual situation so in 2016 I remembered what that palm reader told me, I was destined to write books. All of a sudden I had an idea for a book and the name Holistic Health Series popped into my head and it has been there since 2016.

I knew this was going to be more than just one book but a lot of books based on more specific issues set out in a fun and easy way for people to understand. This way I can help more people follow a healthy lifestyle instead of just the people that came into my clinic. My path of becoming an author was clear and I knew what I had to do but I didn't know the first thing about writing a book so I enrolled in Gabby Bernstein's Bestseller Masterclass and currently I have 50 titles of health handbooks in mind and just plugging along to release them on my 50th birthday March 2, 2024!

Thank you for following my journey to writing a book series!
