Katrina LeBar
Katrina’s mantra,
Feel the fear and do it anyways.
Katrina is an event planner, blogger, and network marketer. Katrina credits her strength to self-developmen
t, as well as, connecting with fellow entrepreneurs.
Over the past year I’ve been doing a lot of reading and attending conferences on personal development, to not only grow as a person but to build a successful business… Surrounding yourself with like-minded people is definitely at the top of the list. I have become very close to a bunch of entrepreneurs. We all help motivate and push each other to keep going, without them my journey may have looked a bit different.
Katrina got the entrepreneurial bug early on from her parents and is now living the dream of being her own boss. She believes that fear is your worst enemy and that we have to take risks to be successful. Once you’ve made it or are well on your way, it’s time to give back.
I truly believe that success is not about what you have gained in your life, but the difference you have made on others.

Lucy runs the sustainability consulting firm Terus. What makes Lucy feel strong and empowered as an entrepreneur?
Having a community that inspires, pushes and supports me.
While completing her degree in Environmental Studies, Lucy also worked in the hospitality industry and saw a need. She took hold of the opportunity and created a business.
Over the course of 6 years I worked from host to manager and saw first-hand the lack of environmental responsibility that existed in the industry. Seeing this as an opportunity, I co-founded sustainability consulting firm, terus.
Terus works to educate individuals and businesses about planning sustainable events and meetings. A tagline that she relies on every day,
Confidence is Key.

Kaitlin Devore
You are either thriving or dying. Live with purpose.
Kaitlin took the traditional path, but found herself wanting more,
I did what every “good girl” should. I went to school, got good grades, graduated and found a high paying career where I could settle in for 40 years and retire with a pension. I WAS MISERABLE commuting up to 3 hours a day, living pay cheque to pay cheque.
As her health began to suffer, Kaitlin was set on a new journey towards wellness. She also went on a search for freedom not wanting to continue to build someone else’s dream. She created a partner company that allows her to live life on her own terms. She has created financial abundance, free of her time, and is on a mission to lead the way for others.
I am on a mission to help others by empowering them to be the CEO. Be the CEO of your life, it’s the only one you get.
Kaitlin’s strength comes from her strong belief in positive outcomes.
Our strength exists in the choices we make. I wake up EXCITED to live my best life and to ignite that fire in others too! I choose to smile even when things get tough and to accept each experience, positive or negative, as a life lesson. I choose to lift others up instead of tearing them down. I have the power to choose my outcome.

various roles, such as wife and mother, at 40 Robyn decided to change things up. That’s how RaDTaGZ Inc
. was born. It then became my mission that along with working hard to have great success, I would do what I could, as often as I could, to help others make RaD choices and be more RaD.

Founder of Live Full Flight Coaching & Events assists clients in expanding and excelling at life.
I embrace my light so that I can shine and uplift others who may not see theirs.
Ashwini says that her strength lies in her vulnerability and authenticity.
On a daily basis I continue to peel back the layers of negative self-talk and destructive behavior to embrace my true self; who I am at the core prior to being exposed to adverse experiences and unfortunate circumstances.
She challenges herself to be vulnerable in her interactions and encourages others to do the same. Ashwini believes in the power of connection, but knows it can be challenging in big cities. She believes that making the effort of connection increases emotional intelligence and helps people lead better lives.
Angelika Filinska
Start living your life fearlessly.Wedding and Lifestyle photographer at Angelika Filinska Photography. Angelika believes that failuer and evaluation is what makes her strong.
There’ve been many times in my life where I have been broken down and have felt like a fail¬ure. Where I
wasn’t good enough, and have disappointed others or myself. However, I find that at these “weak” points in your life is when you grow the most. You learn what you could have done to avoid the situation, or have made it better. You become a stronger, better, version of yourself. Surround yourself with people that support you and your dreams but also, challenge you to become a better version of you.
Angelika has a passion for learning new things and uses her curiosity to expand her creativity. She is passionate about creating a lifestyle that will help her live life to the fullest and wants to move to Europe one day. She believes that everyone has something precious about them. She likes to remind her clients to cherish the moments.
The beauty of a wedding day will last way past the stroke of midnight, the glass slipper and enchanted carriage will remain magnificent forever. I aim to capture every emotion, every glamorous detail, and happy tear for my couples to enjoy again and again. Relive their fairy tales as many times as their heart’s desire, and to fall in love again and again.
