She had become a household name due to her extensive work and contributions to the Mental Health community. Soon enough, she would become the to-go Ambassador for Mental Health, landing her the position of TV News Contributor for all matters related to Mental Health.

After many years of appearing on television and helping her community, The Government of Canada awarded her with The Community Service Excellence Award in the fall of 2021 for all her great work in Mental Health, Domestic Violence, and Human Rights.
