The World Will be Saved by the Western Woman – The Dalai Lama

<p>Brie Mathers was sixteen when she plumbed the muds of anorexia and exercise bulimia, eighteen when she broke the surface and bloomed large into a passionate women's health eco-activist. In her last year of high school Brie looked around the cafeteria table and her campaign was born. She founded&nbsp;<em>Love the Skin You're In&trade;</em>&nbsp;to light the way out of body image, food obsessions and eating disorders by igniting young women's appetite for life.</p> <p>Since graduating from McGill University with distinction, Brie has addressed thousands of young women across North America with her multimedia, myth-busting outreach seminar for sustainability and self-esteem. She has&nbsp;&nbsp;worked extensively behind the scenes one-on-one to support hundreds of young women online and in private retreat who are finding the courage to chart a new relationship with their bodies and uncover their true selves.</p> <p>Written up in&nbsp;<em>The Toronto Star</em>&nbsp;for her Olympic-candidate athletic feats in high school, her work has since been featured in&nbsp;<em>Coastal Living, CTV News, Vancouver Island News, CKVR News</em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>Focus Magazine</em>. Her corporate sponsors have included TD Canada Trust, Royal Bank of Canada and Manulife Financial. Brie has fulfilled contracts with the Government of Canada Youth and Family Services, Ontario Phys-Ed and Health Education Association, Berkeley Youth Alternatives, and the private northern California addiction clinic Recovery Without Walls where she worked one-on-one with people young and old, inspiring them from breakdown to breakthrough.</p> <p>Brie is the author of&nbsp;<em>Freedom to Blossom</em>, co-author of&nbsp;<em>Speaking My Truth</em>&nbsp;and is currently writing her third book.&nbsp;&nbsp;A dedicated student of Zen and yoga, activist writer and poetess, Brie divides her time between eastern Canada and California.</p>
