Tania's grandest accomplishment is her daughter, Katherine and her marriage to Darren, her partner.  Tania is passionate about women, self-knowledge, leadership and the human condition. 

Tania grew up in rural Saskatchewan on a farm, attending Odessa school with two other classmates.  She decided at a young age to pursue academics/learning and went to the University of Saskatchewan, where she studied Marketing and Human Resources and gained her Bachelor of Commerce designation.  It was during this time her journey began with self-confidence and self-esteem.  Tania has always sought out guidance along her journey from strong mentors in the fields of relationship, finances, faith and business as well as her love of reading self-help, self-growth books. 

Tania believes her diagnosis of Celiac Disease in 2000 and post-partum psychosis after the birth of her daughter, were blessings in disguise.  These illnesses provided an opportunity for Tania to trial and test the power of positive thinking, pursue creative solutions and create deep meaningful relationships with others. 

Tania dreams of a world where women support and encourage each other, experiencing personal growth.  She believes that you must work harder on yourself than anything else or activity and that everything around yourself is a manifestation of your thinking.  Tania is an advocate of people pursuing their dreams and turning them into reality.  We must build each other up and the building also needs to occur on the inside. 

Tania is grateful to Carla, Elita and Peggy for dreaming BIG with her on this endeavour and collaborating on this project.  Tania's future aspirations are writing, coaching, mentoring, public speaking and facilitating.
