TESTIMONIALS

“Hearing your story literally brought me to tears. There is so much depth and richness to you –– so many layers! I could have listened to you talk all day. Because you are so heart-lead and share the vulnerable pieces of yourself, you attract and command the attention of an entire room. I remember thinking: I want to be her friend. I need a Tori in my life!”

–– Michelle Gordon, YYoga

“Tori is a powerful speaker, able to move a large hall of people to the point of tears and, ultimately, a standing ovation. Her words and message were strong and clear, all while being incredibly raw and passionate. I was left in awe of her character, stage presence, and kindness. Tori is truly the definition of an inspiring and engaging young woman, and one that I am grateful to have had the chance to get to know!”

–– Stacey Wallin, COO / Co-Founder at Numinus

“If you think Steve Jobs' famous commencement address at Stanford is good, you ain’t seen nothing yet. Tori takes inspiration to a new level. Her story is thrilling, exciting and humiliating. She delivers to a room a riveting tension you rarely experience from a speaker!

When Tori shared the tale of her struggles on the Atlantic, my mind was right there with her on the boat—through thunderstorms and hurricanes, trying to survive, a couple of thousand kilometres away from land. She has caused me to rethink my goals in life and recalibrate my sense of the possible.”

–– Dominik Bundschuh, Consultant at BCG

WHO IS TORI?

Tori Holmes is a nutritionist, wellness entrepreneur, author, and co-founder of Nectar Juicery in Vancouver. In her early twenties, her spirit of adventure and passion for life carried her through a grueling trip across the Atlantic in a 24-foot rowboat—and sustained her in an equally challenging adventure, that of a breast cancer diagnosis. Both experiences turned Tori toward alternative medicine traditions from around the world, and she has charted a return course to wellness by emphasizing the transcendent power of self-care over sick care. Tori is a passionate advocate for the importance of water and hydration, alternative ingredients, and the regenerative power of our own bodies. Today, she is a product developer and ambassador for startup ventures in plant medicine. She lives in Vancouver.
