Honoured to Be Named a Finalist for the Legacy Builder Award

Being named a Top 5 finalist for the Legacy Builder Award with the Authority Awards is a deeply meaningful honour. This recognition reflects more than a personal milestone — it celebrates the conversations, collaborations, and community-centred wellness initiatives that continue to shape my work through CanBeWell, Marathon Jam, and Be Well with Dr Michelle Greenwell. From building self-care tools and healing-centered programs to celebrating World Tai Chi and Qigong Day as part of our Blue Zone vision for community wellbeing, this acknowledgement strengthens my commitment to helping others reconnect with the body’s remarkable capacity to heal.
