The “Why” Behind She Walks Canada

Not having a community of like-minded women around me, kept me silent.

I knew I had a problem with alcohol but I would rather remain status quo than go to a traditional step or treatment program with which I didn’t identify, couldn’t afford, be away from my family, or need to explain my absence. Had I known what was available, I would have reached out much sooner.

Meet Lindsay
FOUNDER OF SHE WALKS CANADA

Lindsay Sutherland Boal is a force for positive change wielding her knowledge and expertise of sober living initiatives and women issues. In 2021, Lindsay founded She Walks Canada—a movement to engage and empower sober and sober-curious women changing their relationship with alcohol. In its second year, She Walks Canada impacted over 1,000 women transitioning away from alcohol, and as a community, met and exceeded the circumnavigation goal of 40,070 kms (24,900 miles) achieving 44,058 (27,379 miles). The 2024 Walk begins February 19, 2024.

As a personal empowerment coach, Lindsay is set to revolutionize the way in which individuals confront their own barriers with her innovative “Uncovery Method.” Her program will soon be accessible online—with options for self-guided or mentored courses—offering anyone an opportunity to free themselves from stagnation and claim control of their journey towards success.

Additionally, Lindsay is an executive at Urban Outline Building Group; an athlete; mother; wife; friend; sister; mentor; public speaker; former podcast host and producer of The COVID Chronicles Canada; professional opera singer; and actor on stage and television.
