Her mission is to educate and support individuals affected by this genetic disorder. She truly believes that no matter what our life challenges may be, rising above them is what makes us stronger.
Her drive was sparked by her daughter’s diagnosis of a genetic blood disorder at the age of 8 months and her death at 14 years of age.
She is the founder and president of The Vancouver Thalassemia Society, which she started after her daughter’s passing.

Nanci was blessed from an early age with vision and the power to manifest her dreams. Growing up, her earliest inspiration came from a children’s book: Harold and the Purple Crayon. Like Harold, Nanci could create a world of her own simply by drawing it into being.
Growing up in an abusive, alcoholic, and drug addicted family, Nanci favoured fantasy over reality and chose to retreat into a world of art. At age 9, she had a repetitive dream in which she crossed over a stone footbridge to find herself in other worlds. From this dream, she discovered she could use her imagination to shape and manifest the reality of her dreams. Over the years, she has brought to life many of her hopes and dreams of travel, education, having a child, buying a home, and building a successful business. In her coaching method, Nanci coaches you on a journey to achieve your dreams and live into them. With credibility and vulnerability, Nanci shares her own journey. For example, when Nanci was told in her mid-thirties she could not have children, she did not give up on her dream of being a mother. Like Harold with his magic crayon, Nanci created a pictorial journal entry of herself holding a baby boy. Today her son, Lucas is in college.
Donna’s gifts include advocacy and innovation specializing in women who find themselves disenfranchised, yet determined seekers of Truth, freedom + upward transition.
I have shared my journey into self with you on many shows here on Sara’s View of Life, this is another level of unravelling in my own Self Discovery. I introduce you to my 2 new spirit guides and the path they have shown me to walk on.
