Originally from Nova Scotia, at the age of 20, Trish was a waitress, single-mother and effectively a high-school dropout. Upon receiving her first, and last, welfare cheque she decided to take responsibility for life to provide the best life possible for her son.
After meeting her husband, Paul, Trish returned to High School to get her Grade 12 and then took a Business and Information Technology course through the Nova Scotia Community College. Trish literally fell into her first ‘career’ job with one of the first Internet Service Providers in Canada. This experience launched Trish’s career as an IT Solution Implementation Specialist. She went on to work as a Senior Project Manager, Requirements Manager and Solution Architect, designing and implementing global enterprise learning solutions for Fortune 500 organizations.
In 1998, Trish was diagnosed with Scleroderma, a rare form of Rheumatoid Arthritis that creates scar tissue inside of the body. Upon receiving her diagnosis, against the advice of all of her doctors, Trish refused all medications and decided to look for alternative healing options. These included practical methods, such as diet and exercise; however, she was most powerfully drawn towards learning how healing the spirit can heal the body.
Much of Trish’s healing journey was trial and error, yet within a very short period of time, she was able to not only stop the progression of the dis-ease, but to start to reverse the symptoms. She believes that while we may set our bodies up for dis-ease physically, through poor diet, etc. that how that dis-ease manifests will often be the result of our spiritual and emotional health.
Trish does not consider herself an expert because she is asking the powerful questions found in the book. Rather, she will be the first to tell you that her expertise stems from the fact that she has had to answer each of these questions for herself throughout the course of her own journey. She believes that each of us is our own expert, and the only reason we may feel otherwise is because we have dismissed our own intuition and inner knowledge primarily due to the fact that we have been conditioned to look outside of ourselves for what we have come to define as ‘expertise’ and ‘knowledge’. Her hope is that The Question Journey™ can become a stepping stone for people to learn to trust their own intuition again, to trust that they can look inside themselves for the answers and, finally, to trust that they have the courage to voice those answers and allow their truth to take them on their own journey towards becoming their authentic self.
