KIM SJOBLAD CNP
Kim is a 2011 Mississauga campus graduate, currently practicing in Toronto, ON. She is the founder of Get Your Glow Inc. and the creator of The Fertility Glow program. She created these innovative programs from her passion for educating and coaching women on the many holistic ways to improve overall health and provide options for preconception. Within her teachings, she has also connected women and couples with the best holistic approaches to achieve conception and to sustain a long, healthy life. Kim’s program has been featured in Fertility Road Magazine, Sun Media newspapers, Working Mother Radio and on the Dr. Hoffman Show. Kim attributes her success to creating her own unique brand. This comes easy to Kim since she was once the lead Graphic Designer for a major Canadian corporation. Branding goes way beyond just a logo or graphic element, it’s really about your entire customer experience… everything from your logo, your website, your social media experiences, the way you answer the phone all the way to how your customers experience your services. Your brand is the way your customers and the media perceive you.

JOY McCARTHY CNP, RNCP
Joy is a 2009 North York campus gradute, currently practicing in Toronto, ON. She is the “joy” behind Joyous Health, international speaker, best-selling author, TV personality and founder of JoyousHealth.com, a healthy lifestyle blog. Joy is a proud new mama to her baby girl, Vienna Jordan. Joy’s passion for mama-hood was ignited when she became pregnant with Vienna. After doing extensive research on the topic of mama-hood, Joy came to realize that natural health resources for mamas looking to have a healthy and holistic pregnancy and beyond were not as readily available as conventional resources. This lit a fire in her fanny to write a new e-book for mamas, called FEEL JOYOUS, LOOK GREAT after pregnancy and beyond.  This “mama ebook” is full of delicious recipes, as well as, superfoods for mamas, a 7-day simple and nourishing meal plan and a healthy swap chart to help mamas make-over their kitchen. Joy also discusses “foods to ditch”, “hormone altering chemicals” to avoid and what every new mom needs – “healthy snack ideas to stay energized” which are essential when you’re running on 3 hours sleep.  This e-book has 20+ recipes with drool-worthy photos including metabolism boosting granola and cinnamon bun smoothie to help mamas feel their best and so much more.

DR. KAROLINA FRITZ  HBSC, PHD, CNP & DANIELLE HURST  BSC, CNP
Together Karolina and Danielle call themselves Medium Squared – two mediums, based out of Toronto, that work as a team to communicate with the beloved departed on the other side. They deliver messages of love, support, and encouragement from family and friends that have transitioned into the spirit world. Dr. Karolina is Clairvoyant, Clairaudient and Clairsentient. Danielle is Clairsentient, Clairaudient and Clairvoyant. Their differences in their abilities complement each other to ensure all messages get through.

Karolina is a 2009 North York campus graduate. She completed both her BSc (Hons) in Chemical Physics and PhD in Physical Chemistry at the University of Toronto where she received awards and scholarships for her scientific research on nanotechnology. She had been able to communicate with the spirit world since she was a small child back in Chile but preferred the scientific world—to block this part of herself. Inspired by her global travels she left academia to pursue holistic/alternative medicine. She enrolled at the Institute of Holistic Nutrition graduating with First-class Honours. She is also an Energy Medicine Practitioner.

Danielle is a 2010 North York campus graduate. She began sensing spirits since she was young. It took her a long time to realize that others did not have this ability. Blessed with a mother who understood these things and had many gifts of her own, Danielle was able to reconcile the two worlds, choosing a career in business but staying grounded and pursuing spiritual awareness. After losing her mother and best friend to cancer, Danielle decided to attend The Institute of Holistic Nutrition where she met Karolina. There, the two became fast-friends, and is where Danielle encouraged Karolina to accept her gifts.
