Strategic Growth Marketing Leader
She Said Next
Email: [email protected]
More about my services can be found here.
I’m a strategic marketing & growth leader with nearly three decades of experience. I am currently serving as Sr. Growth Marketing Director at a major international relief and development NGO, leading disaster‑response fundraising and global donor engagement initiatives. Previously I oversaw donor journeys and fundraising products generating hundreds of millions annually, developed product offers, drove segmentation and retention strategies, and managed cross‑functional teams.
I hold an MBA in Technology & Innovation Management, and certificates in Digital Marketing, Growth Marketing, and Marketing with AI — giving me both strategic depth and up‑to-date digital marketing expertise.
My approach is rooted in data-driven insight, but grounded in empathy, storytelling and real human connection — essential when working with mission‑driven organizations, influencers, and value‑driven small businesses.

Social: terra.vea
I am a strategic leader and transformation partner who helps individuals and organizations move through change with clarity, steadiness, and intention. My work sits at the intersection of emotional intelligence and real-world strategy. I have seen firsthand that most challenges are not just about decisions or plans, but about people, patterns, and the ability to navigate change in a way that actually holds. I spent over a decade in healthcare leadership, leading cross-functional teams, building operational strategy, and guiding organizations through growth, change, and complexity. I have also built and sold a business of my own, giving me a deep understanding of what it means to lead, adapt, and rebuild in real time.
My work today is also shaped by lived experience. After navigating the end of a long-term marriage and the unraveling of a life I once believed in, I found myself in the same place many women in midlife quietly arrive, whether through relationship endings, career shifts, or unexpected loss, asking not just what is next, but who am I now? What I discovered is that starting over is not about reinvention. It is about returning to yourself.
Through TerraVéa, I help people move from emotional overwhelm and uncertainty into grounded clarity so they can make decisions, rebuild, and move forward in a way that is aligned, sustainable, and true to who they are.

Dietitian-Nutritionist
Email: [email protected]
Social: eatwellwithpatricia
Hi, I’m Patricia, a seasoned registered dietitian with over 30 years of experience in chronic disease management working in a hospital setting, where I’ve guided thousands of people in achieving their nutrition and health goals. In recent years, I shifted my focus to midlife and menopause nutrition after recognizing a major gap in meaningful, evidence-based support for women and because of what I experienced myself moving through perimenopause.
My work centres on helping women understand their changing bodies and build sustainable habits that support energy, metabolism, and long-term well-being. Through personalized, science-backed nutrition guidance and a compassionate, realistic approach, I help women navigate weight changes, cravings, joint pain, gut symptoms, and the day-to-day frustrations that come with this phase of life. My goal is to offer clarity, confidence, and practical strategies so women can feel like themselves again.
Patricia is available to work with clients in the Quebec Canada area only.
