Aisha Saintiche has been announced as one of the keynote speakers for the upcoming 2022 Sport for Life Canadian Summit. With over 15 years of experience as a certified health coach and owner of Me to Moi Health, she will be sharing how to promote optimized health and wellness. At the Summit, which takes place in multiple communities simultaneously on May 11 and 12, Saintiche will discuss the important role that sport and physical activity has on mental health, social connection, and self-empowerment.

“Health, on all levels, has become fundamental in thriving, not just surviving. Recognizing the importance of health, which we know has been impacted by the pandemic, my discussion will explore the physical, emotional and spiritual barriers that we need to pay attention to in an effort to achieve our health goals,” said Saintiche.

Saintiche also holds a Masters in Public Policy Administration and Law, as well as a certificate in Change Management, Advanced Crisis Intervention and Counselling, and  Health Coaching. She is also an Integral Master for the Canadian Olympic Committee of  Canada, and most recently she became a published author with the book She Is Just Getting Started. She currently sits on the board of directors for the Woman Abuse Council of Toronto (WomanACT).

“We are so excited to have Aisha deliver a keynote at the 2022 Sport for Life Canadian Summit,” said Francesca Jackman, Manager of Strategic Initiatives at Sport for Life. “Having heard her speak before, I think she has a wealth of knowledge and can bring really fresh perspective and insight to the conversations the sector is having on safe sport, equity, inclusion, intersectionality, accessibility, and mental health.”
