Today I got word from the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition that I passed my final exam and am officially a Registered Holistic Nutritionist (RHN)! I was also told that I graduate with an honours certificate of merit :)

I never would have thought my life would end up taking a turn in this direction - after all, my entire life I only saw myself as one thing - a teacher. Not only that, but my diet growing up was, in one word - terrible! I was overweight, overstressed, and overmedicated.

It took a tragedy to turn life as I knew it on its head, and become the impetus for change. 

Discovering the power of food as medicine not only helped my husband deal with a traumatic brain injury, and taper off medications which often made his condition worse, but helped me lose weight, regulate a thyroid imbalance and learn what it truly means to feel healthy.

Empowered by the knowledge that real food has a dynamic impact on our health, I embarked on a three year journey with the CSNN which brought me to where I am today.
