    Embarking on a transformative journey from the bustling hospitality scene in Vancouver to her calling in holistic nutrition, Hilary shares an evocative narrative of her pivot to entrepreneurship—spurred by her mother's battle with cancer and a burning desire to fuse her passion with purpose. She sheds light on the immense power of flexibility and openness to change, which have become cornerstones in her life.
