Speaker Biography

Janet and her sister Greta are to Canada what Jamie Oliver is to the UK: Health and wellness experts dedicated to helping people of all ages (and sizes!) improve their eating habits. Their first cookbook, Looneyspoons (published with the help of David Chilton, of Wealthy Barber and Dragon’s Den fame), became one of the fastest-selling books in Canadian publishing history, with an astonishing 850,000 copies sold. It spent an incredible 85 weeks on the national bestseller list and 8 months at the #1 spot. Amazing, considering the girls self-published the book out of their basement! Their inspirational, against-all-odds, entrepreneurial success story has been featured on countless media outlets across North America, including The Today Show, CNN, People Magazine, Reader’s Digest and Canada AM. Fixtures on many a Canadian kitchen countertop, their books and recipes have been the subject of Trivial Pursuit questions and their famous entrepreneurial story is even studied in university marketing textbooks! Janet, the writer of the duo known for her trademark wit and humour, is also a Registered Holistic Nutritionist with a private wellness practice called ImagineHealth! (Wellness designed by YOUR body) in Ottawa. Here she integrates Natural Nutrition with cutting-edge mind-body energy medicine based on the latest research in modern science such as quantum physics, epigenetics and Energy Psychology. She was drawn to this field in the mid-2000s after being diagnosed with a serious autoimmune disorder, which she successfully treated using natural, alternative modalities and the power of the mind. No stranger to overcoming obstacles, Janet was inducted into the Carleton University Sports Hall of Fame in 2000, excelling in soccer and basketball despite six knee operations. Now, besides making the complicated subject of healthy eating “easier to digest,” Janet’s true passion is educating, uplifting and inspiring others to produce miracles with their own health and their own lives. Prescription: Belief!
