Georgi Lone joined the Integrative Mental Health Coach Training Program on April 25, 2021.  I was excited to be part of her journey throughout the program as she demonstrated such passion, knowing, profound insight, and zest for life. 

Unfortunately, I received a phone call from her not long after informing me that she had been diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer and would need to put her studies on hold during treatment.  In her emails to me over the coming months, she was optimistic, positive, and displayed an amazing attitude. She passed on September 7, 2022.

I am so happy to be able to provide this 'pay what you can' scholarship in her honour and memory.  I believe she will watch over you as you make your way through the program modules.

Georgi Michelle Lone

1974 - 2022

Georgi was strong-willed, ready for adventure and saw the depth and beauty in so much that crossed her path.  As a massage therapist, yoga instructor, photographer, triathlete, climber, world traveler and an incredible cook, Georgi’s passion for life was unparalleled. She saw the world through a unique lens, was undeterred by growing into new versions of herself, was a compassionate caregiver and an outspoken advocate for herself and others. She worked hard and knew how vitally important it was to prioritize having fun. Her laugh was beautiful. Georgi’s cancer journey was a courageous one, fighting to live every inch of the way. She was determined, positive, hopeful and without complaint. Georgi lived her life on her own terms, right to the end. 

Georgi Lone was a passionate photographer who loved to share her many adventures around the world.
