I moved to Quebec in 2008 as an immigrant, stepping into a country with two languages that weren’t mine. I built a family here, but after my divorce, I found myself feeling lost and alone with two kids. It was one of the hardest times in my life.

But in that struggle, I found courage. I decided to follow my dreams and take risks. I started doing comedy, changed careers, and eventually, I fell in love again. Now, at 43, I feel like I’m finally beginning to reconnect with who I truly am.

I’m not there yet, but I’m on a path of self-discovery, aligning my life with my passions and what feels authentic to me. This journey hasn’t been easy, but it’s made me stronger, and for the first time, I feel like I’m living for myself.
