Sheryl Hanula - FOUNDER & CEO

I come from a long lineage shaped by resilience — and by the echoes of epigenetic trauma. My Northern Irish and Ukrainian ancestry carries stories that were not always spoken, yet deeply felt. Like many, I grew up with love but without all the tools needed for emotional wellbeing. Some choices I made in my younger years came from that untended soil — and they led me toward vital lessons, healing, and ultimately, purpose.

I was raised in Southwestern Ontario and later moved west to study Anthropology at UBC. I now live on the unceded, unsurrendered, traditional lands of the K’ómoks people — a place that has rooted itself in my heart. The forests, tides, and shifting skies of this coast have become part of who I am.

My path has never been linear. I’ve studied entheogens at UBC, pursued photography and yoga, worked as a copy editor for an international news organization, photographed hundreds of weddings, managed countless large scale and intimate events — and all along, a quiet calling kept returning: to support healing of the heart, mind, and body through relationship with Nature.

That calling is now my work. I’ve trained in Nature-Based Therapy, Embodied Meditation, and Somatics, and spent years deep in self-led research and personal practice. My greatest teachers have always been the land, the body, the breath — and the quiet voice within.

I don’t believe healing should be gatekept. I offer my gifts with integrity and accessibility, while acknowledging the realities of our monetized world. Everyone deserves a path toward wholeness.

I feel most alive in the forest — listening to birdsong, rivers, wind, and the unseen conversation that happens beneath the soil. I want to open that world to those who haven’t yet felt its medicine, and especially to those who carry invisible wounds within their bodies.

Nature is the true healer — free from toxic positivity, spiritual bypassing, or comparison. My role is simply to walk beside you. At your pace. With care.

Guided by the values of the earth — slow, grounded, relational — we’ll find your way forward, together.
