In this episode, we sit down with Frances Krawiec and chat about all things beauty, aging with grace and prioritizing our wellness routines. Frances spills the tea on which beauty products are worth the splurge and the supplements that will help us thrive. “Beauty is a journey with your patient, and high standards of excellence and precision are always at the forefront of my practice” Frances Krawiec is a highly trained Nurse Practitioner who performs facial rejuvenation services including injectables at Preventous Cosmetic. As a Nurse Practitioner, Fran is able to provide independent and collaborative comprehensive clinical management of patients bringing together medical and nursing knowledge and values. Fran obtained her Bachelor of Nursing from the University of Calgary and in pursuit of excellence in healthcare, went on to obtain her Masters of Health Sciences from McMaster University and then a Nurse Practitioner Degree from the University of Western Ontario. Subsequently, Fran worked as a Nurse Practitioner in Cardiology at London Health Sciences Center and was nominated for the “Clinical Excellence Award for Cardiovascular Nursing” in 1999, at the Canadian Cardiovascular Council of Nurses Conference. Fran has worked for more than 20 years as a Nurse Practitioner in the Intensive Care Unit, Cardiology Unit and in cardiovascular medicine. Her experience in these fields has largely contributed to her exceptional knowledge of anatomy and affords her a unique approach to facial rejuvenation. Subsequent to her work in the hospitals, Fran developed an interest in medical aesthetics with a focus on anti-aging, advanced injectable techniques and complex skin conditions. As a result, Fran went on to train with our own Dr. Rohan Bissoondath, amongst others, and has since practiced as an expert injector for a number of years. She strongly believes in an individualized approach leading to sophisticated and natural results, one that begins with listening to the patient. Frances’s passion for knowledge in this field is evidenced by her continuous learning attending conferences and teachings all around the world. Her training includes Mertz Aesthetic Facial Assessment Course, MD Codes Training, AAIC Aesthetic Anatomy and Injection Course (Virtual), Paris, France with world renowned anatomist Dr. Sebastian Cotofana and Aesthetic Blueprint with Dr. Arthur Swift in Newport, California.

Francis Krawiec is licensed through the College and Association of Registered Nurses of Alberta (CARNA). She is a member of CSASN, CCCN, AMS, and IMCAS. Nurse practitioners (NPs) are registered nurses who have additional education and nursing experience, which enables them to: Autonomously diagnose and treat illnesses. Order and interpret tests.

In this episode, we discuss emotional intelligence and leadership and becoming a connected leader.
A connected leader gets results and relationships. They see the potential within themselves. They stand out from the rest with confidence and humility. They understand that true leadership is a mindset, and not a title on a business card. Their ability to integrate their expertise and experience with an energy that engages, inspires and motivates others sets them apart from everyone else.

In this episode we speak to the power of language, the journey inwards as an entrepreneur, taking pause for deeper consideration and what's alive for the future.
About Judy Brooks:
Leading with lovingkindness, and her playful spirit, you will find Judy Brooks in a corporate boardroom as often as on a trail in the woods engaging individuals and groups in conversations that matter.
Her purpose? To inspire deep consideration.
Judy is a student and a practitioner—from neuroscience to yoga, board governance to meditation—beginning each day, and her work, from a place of learning and experience.
Her three decades of success in building companies, mentoring corporate leaders, and developing strategy in high-transition times is proof of her drive toward service and impact in the world.
Emotional wisdom guides the business acumen she has built up over a successful career; from co-founding the global conflict management company, Proactive Resolutions, to launching-growing-and-exiting the global franchise phenomenon of Blo Blow Dry Bar. Most recently, as Executive Chair, she helped guide food category disrupter, Smart Sweets, to an acclaimed transaction.
Judy finds energy and excitement in mentoring and for 16 years, Judy served as CEO, board member, and then Chair of FWE (now the Forum), Canada’s largest woman entrepreneur association. She has served or advised on numerous private, public, and not-for-profit Boards as diverse as Nurse Next Door to Talkshop Media. She has received awards and accolades for her influence in business, mentorship, and leadership. But as Judy would say it is not what you have done but who you are.
Judy brings care, vision and presence to every engagement, as well as a deep listening ear. It is her honor and inspiration (and brings her joy) to support these individuals and groups taking their own self-governance seriously and playing in the deep end of their own evolution.
