In this week’s episode of Wellness As A Way of Life I am so excited to dish up the whole story of my experience going to see one of my most important mentors in life: Elizabeth Gilbert.  

In case you don’t already know, at 30 I sold everything and left Toronto to embark on my own “Eat, Pray, Love” journey of sorts and now at 44 I’m still on my first stop where I fell in love with one of my English students.  We have two beautiful boys and three adorable dogs and love to travel and explore the lesser known beaches of Mexico.
