Like many women, there was a time when I looked healthy on the outside but didn't feel well on the inside.

For years I struggled with digestive issues, chronic stress, anxiety and feeling disconnected from my own body. I tried to manage the symptoms, but nothing seemed to address why they were happening.

Everything changed when I discovered Ayurveda.

Instead of asking, "How do we get rid of this symptom?" Ayurveda asked a different question:

"What is the root cause of the imbalance?"

That simple shift changed my life.

By learning to nourish my body through food, herbs, daily routines and lifestyle practices, I gradually restored my health and discovered that true healing isn't about chasing symptoms or searching for quick fixes. It's about understanding the body, working with nature and making small, intentional choices that create lasting change.

That experience inspired the work I do today.

I founded Shakti & Sage Health and Wellness to help women reconnect with their bodies, understand the root causes of imbalance and feel empowered to take an active role in their health.

Through Ayurveda, herbal medicine, nutrition and mindful living, I support women navigating stress, digestive concerns, hormonal changes, menopause, fatigue and healthy aging. My approach is practical, compassionate and rooted in education because I believe informed women are empowered women.

In addition to my work at Shakti & Sage, I am the co-founder of Soul Sister Botanicals, where we create small-batch herbal teas and botanical products inspired by traditional herbal wisdom.

I also teach wellness workshops in partnership with the South Georgian Bay Community Health Centre, helping people discover simple, natural ways to support their health through herbs, seasonal living, better sleep, intuitive tea blending and self-care.

Learning has always been central to my work. I have completed extensive training in Ayurveda, herbal medicine, yoga and holistic wellness and am currently advancing my clinical herbal training under the mentorship of renowned herbalist Karta Purkh Singh (K.P.) Khalsa, deepening my knowledge of clinical assessment, herbal formulation and evidence-informed herbal practice.

My Philosophy

At the heart of my work is the belief that our bodies are always communicating with us. Symptoms are not something to silence—they are messages inviting us to look deeper.

Rather than focusing solely on symptom management, I help women understand the root causes of imbalance and develop practical, sustainable strategies that support the body's innate ability to heal. Ayurveda and herbal medicine provide the framework, but true healing comes from listening to the body, honouring its rhythms and making choices that nourish rather than deplete.

I believe wellness is not achieved through perfection. It is cultivated through small, intentional choices made consistently over time—nourishing foods, herbal medicine, restorative sleep, mindful movement, connection with nature and simple daily rituals that support both body and mind.

My mission is to educate and empower women with the knowledge and confidence to become active participants in their own health. When women understand why their bodies are communicating the way they are, they are better equipped to make informed choices that create lasting health, resilience, and vitality.

I don't believe in chasing symptoms. I believe in understanding the root causes of imbalance and empowering women with the knowledge and confidence to take an active role in their health.
