Hi everyone! I'm Arlana from Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada. 👋 I'm an author, speaker, podcast host, and the founder of the Moving Beyond Words and WE Wellness communities. My work focuses on helping people build healthier, more meaningful relationships with their animal companions by looking beyond behavior to the deeper connection, communication, and wellbeing that exists within every relationship. I also host a Wellness Community Directory for Holistic Professionals. Over the years I've worn many hats—from animal wellness educator and community builder to business owner and content creator. I recently published my book Moving Beyond Words: Our Shared Journey, host the Holistic Wellness for People, Pets & Planet podcast, write for Brainz Magazine, and continue developing programs and communities that bring together people who share a passion for holistic wellness. Right now I'm focused on growing my visibility, strengthening my speaking opportunities, expanding both of my Skool communities, and simplifying my message so it reaches the people who need it most. Like many entrepreneurs, I'm learning that building a business isn't just about creating great content—it's about creating connection, confidence, and consistency. I'm excited to learn from other successful speakers, coaches, creators, and community builders, especially around audience growth, speaking, community engagement, collaborations, and building a sustainable business while staying authentic to my mission. In return, I hope I can contribute ideas around relationship-centered wellness, community building, storytelling, holistic approaches to people and animals, and support others however I can. Fun fact: Some of my biggest teachers have had four legs. 🐾 They completely changed the direction of my life and inspired everything I do today. I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone and learning alongside you!
