Sarah Stirling moved from Halifax, Nova Scotia, to North Vancouver, British Columbia, at the age of fourteen with her parents and two sisters. While attending middle school, high school and eventually nursing school, Sarah continued to write stories as a means to self-express and create. During her eighteen-year nursing career, raising two children with her husband, Sarah studied metaphysics which led her to work with people struggling with chronic pain. From there she worked for North Vancouver Home Health and she completed Vancouver Community College's (VCC) Counselling Skills program. In 2012 Sarah earned an MA and began her teaching career in the Counselling Skills program at VCC until her retirement in 2023. She is now a certified fitness instructor for the BC Recreation and Parks Association, with a specialty in mental wellbeing and fitness. This is Sarah's first book.
