I have never fit neatly into one lane. For a long time, I thought that was the problem. Now I know it's the point.

I am a singer-songwriter, an entrepreneur, a mother, a seeker. I have recorded five albums and performed on stages across Canada, the U.S., the U.K. and Australia. I have built an award-winning real estate team, run a health food store, trained in Reiki and Huna healing and raised three children, one of whom lives with diabetes.

I didn't build a career. I built a life. And I paid attention to every part of it.

It started at the piano.

I was six years old when music found me. I was the kid who woke up eager to play, obsessed with every note and melody. It wasn't a hobby. It was the place I went when I was struggling, frustrated, bored, heartbroken. My piano was my confidence.

I spent my twenties and thirties chasing that. Five albums. 58 songs. Stages I saved up to get to, tours I funded myself, a career I loved and wrestled with in equal measure.

Then one night, at 3am under a bridge in Buffalo, fixing a windshield wiper in the pouring rain after a solo gig in New York City, something in me shifted. My hands, used to dancing on piano keys, were wrestling with a wiper blade. I was exhausted, drenched and done. I decided it was time for a break.

That break turned into years.

The years that built everything else.

Marriage. Three kids. A health food store. And then Florian Realty – a real estate company I built from the ground up into an award-winning team.

I was good at it. I loved parts of it. But music was never far. I kept writing, even when there was barely time to breathe.

What I didn't fully understand then was that none of it was a detour. The business taught me to lead. Motherhood taught me to love without conditions. The hard seasons taught me to stop waiting.

The losses that changed everything.

When I was nineteen, my father was diagnosed with Huntington's disease. My sister and I later tested negative – the first in our family not to carry the gene. That early reckoning with mortality planted something in me. A knowing that life is not something to perform. It is something to live.

I needed reminding of that lesson in midlife.

Laura was there from the beginning of my business. We built it together, navigated everything together. She was one of those people who made the work feel like more than work. In late 2025, cancer took her at 51. It came fast and it took her quickly.

Losing her brought everything into sharp focus. How short it all is. How much we hold back. How easy it is to keep living in pieces, waiting for the right time to bring all of yourself into the room.

I stopped waiting.

The integration.

I returned to music and realised it was the missing piece of everything I already was. Music, business and spirituality. Not three separate identities. One life, finally in harmony.

I trained in Reiki and Huna healing. I went back to the piano. I started writing again with the urgency of someone who knows exactly how much time matters.

And I started helping other women do the same. Women who have built real things and still feel the gap between the life they've created and the fullness of who they are becoming. Women who are ready to stop living in pieces.

That is the work. And it is the most alive I have ever felt.
