Can understanding the benefits of positive psychology change your team? YES!

When I focused on positive psychology in my everyday life, I ended up with better health, better career, more money and better relationships. And the best part? This is possible for your team too.

When I committed to understanding the science behind mental well-being, in addition to continuing therapy, it completely changed the game and opened up a world of possibilities.

Twenty-five years ago, after 4 miscarriages, I found that I wasn't coping well. I couldn't get out of bed in the mornings. I found it difficult to take care of my daughter. Life had become overwhelming and I was faced with a dark depression. 
I sought therapy, got out of depression, but realized that to sustain my mental well-being, I needed to delve deeper into the science behind it.

This quest for understanding led me to the University of Pennsylvania, where I studied under Dr. Martin Seligman, the founder of positive psychology. Immersing myself in 6,000 pages of research, I earned my Master’s degree in Applied Positive Psychology. Applying these insights to my own life, I discovered a renewed purpose: to share this life-changing knowledge with others, especially in the workforce. I share this because we need to switch the conversation and focus from mental illness to mental wellness.

Which led me to…

Founding the Canadian Positive Psychology Association

In 2012, driven by my passion to promote mental health and well-being, I founded the Canadian Positive Psychology Association (CPPA). My vision was clear: to bridge the gap between groundbreaking well-being research and its practical application in everyday life. Through the CPPA, I have united researchers, practitioners, and leaders in a community dedicated to enhancing the psychological well-being of all Canadians.

My mission is to positively impact the mental health of over 10 million Canadians in the next five years. For more than 15 years, I have been empowering people to prioritize their well-being through evidence-based education, training, coaching, and certifications. At the heart of my work is positive psychology, the scientific study of psychological well-being and human flourishing.

I believe in a world where every individual understands and harnesses the power of positive psychology to lead a fulfilling and thriving life, cultivating happiness, resilience, and positive mental health in our work field.

I lead by example.

I now know what is possible and what difference positivity makes in your daily life.

We hear far too often about high turnover, employee burnout, and difficulties attracting talent. It’s time you prioritize your team's mental wellness and improve workplace culture. 

You want the science? I got it. You want simplified, clear guidance and ready-to-go tools on mental wellness in the workplace? That’s my zone of genius.

Let’s make an impact, together.
