Kenisha Mei is a woman falling into her future. She left a life full of family issues as a young teen, became an Alberta nurse working up north, married, then divorced but got the two most precious young girls from it. She talks about her struggles, hopes, surprises, and the role she has merged into by building a new community. She is clever but does not see what others do; she tells how she is learning too, finding self-acceptance,
You might find a lot of you in her story, please join us.
Kinesha Mei
Many see me as a leader; others see me as a caring nurse; I myself am struggling to juggle all
of life’s never-ending challenges, including being a single mother. A nursing colleague of mine
shared with me years ago that Kenisha means a bright shining star in Filipino. This is what I
strive to embody every day through my work in bringing health and wellness to people. The light that brings hope and guides others to a healthier future through community support. I’m the founder of YYC ROCKS, which stands for Rebuilding Our Community with Kindness and
Sustainability is an organization focused on helping people find true healing through love, unity, and an understanding that they hold the keys to their own health & wellness. My passion for creating change began when I was young, but like many who have lost their job due to the “pandemic’, I realized I had a purpose beyond being a nurse. Being forced to take the vaccine caused a pivotal change for myself and my family. It was in that moment, watching the timer count down to be “vaccinated,” that I broke down. Tears streamed down my face as my young daughters hugged me, asking why I was crying; I realized not just for myself but for them that I needed to stand up for my belief in body autonomy, freedom to choose, and to be that voice for justice & equality. I feel so blessed every day to be able to connect with others who have similar values and morals, to be part of a community that is focused on growing and evolving with one another, and to know that we are never alone because through love, strength and unity we can heal as one.
