I’m Becky!

I spent my childhood in rural Alberta and British Columbia running through forests, swimming in lakes and enjoying clean, fresh air. My 3 siblings and I were blessed to have a hard-working father who was always busy building or fixing something and a talented mother who made most of our food and clothes herself. This was a wonderful foundation and developed a love for connection and the outdoors, which I still treasure today.

 To cope with childhood trauma and sexual assault in my teens, I began binging and purging at an early age. Even though I ate fairly well and exercised regularly, my bulimic behavior continued for the next 30 years, causing weight fluctuations, depression and chronic poor digestion.

 During my teens and early 20’s I worked a variety of jobs including several healthfood stores and a ladies only gym, before earning a Personal Trainer certificate from Mount Royal College. I moved back to the Edmonton area shortly before the birth of my first child. After my husband and I divorced in my early 30’s, I threw myself into raising our 3 children as a single parent, starting a small business and working part time.

 At 45, I lost my corporate job, 2 of my children moved out and an injury ended my 30+ year running career, all within a 6 month period! After taking some time off, I began therapy (again) and embarked on the journey to heal past wounds, learn to love myself completely and decide what I truly wanted my life to look like.

 During the next 2 years, I completed my 200 hour yoga teacher training, earned a wellness coaching certificate and then became a Certified Holistic Nutrition Consultant.

 My goal is to empower you to incorporate healthy whole foods, enjoyable activity and mindfulness into your busy lifestyle. Making small, simple changes that are quick, easy and affordable will soon become habits that will help you grow into the best version of you!
