extensive lived experience

"Tammy has served as a volunteer in many capacities, including at the North Fraser Therapeutic Riding Association, Circle F Horse Rescue, and the BC Cancer Agency. Her recent pursuits include a life coaching certification, studies in trauma and strategic resilience, and becoming an integrative energy healing practitioner. She also sits on the board of a developing charity for restorative tattooing, After Cancer Art.

Now, a fresh start has come after facing her own mortality. Learning to let go created space for new possibilities.Through her extensive lived experience, Tammy has been called to be a healer and dedicates her time to building something of consequence. Upon being released as a cancer patient, she immediately began creating Soul Shift Wellness, a non-profit foundation designed to support women with breast cancer."

Tactful enthusiasm

"Tammy was a volunteer for the Patient and Family Counselling (PFC) Department of the BC Cancer Agency through 2016. During her time she actively assisted in facilitating the PFC Relaxation program. She demonstrated enthusiasm, tact and kindness in her work with all of the patients who attended the program. She was always prompt, articulate and professional in her volunteer work with the agency. We wish her the best in her future endeavors"

Compassion and kindness

"I forgot to ask.. you are the perfect person to decide how to distribute some lovely donated quilts to patients. Next time you are in, would you like to hand out a few to those patients who may most need a kind gesture?"
