About Me

My name is Marie. Having spent 10 years working as a leader in the corporate world both domestically and internationally I thought that I knew everything there was to know about succeeding in life. A picture perfect career, a picture perfect car, a picture perfect family, a picture perfect life. However it was the devastating loss of my daughter in 2020 that taught me more than I had learned in a lifetime. How our lives feel is far more important than how they look. My mission in life is to honour my beautiful daughters memory by trying to help people every day to truly feel happy and to throw ‘picture perfect’ out the window.

Lots of Love,
