Hello. I’m Sandra.
Heart Healer. Transformation & Leadership Coach. Author & Speaker.
For more than forty years, I've helped people understand the patterns shaping their lives, process what they've been carrying, and discover what becomes possible when the heart heals.
I've worked with people from remarkably different worlds — parents, entrepreneurs, executives, pastors, prisoners and political leaders. Their stories were different. Their hearts often asked the same questions.

Delivering transformation to individuals, parents, partners, leaders and entrepreneurs.
Author of The Diary of a Heart Healer, and host of the podcast of the same name.
Of Heart Healers and the White Heart Framework™ — and, with her family, Santé and the Love One Foundation.
I didn't start with a framework. I started with my own heart.
I was born in Port of Spain, Trinidad, the twelfth of fourteen children. I was a little girl full of wonder who dreamed of changing the world long before I understood how deeply the world would change me.
My life would hold extraordinary grace and devastating loss. Childhood wounds. Immigration to Canada. Marriage and divorce. Motherhood. Business success and failure. Three serious car accidents. Years of physical and emotional struggle. And eventually, the healing I had always believed was possible.
For years, I thought changing my circumstances would change me if I worked on my behaviours, achieved more, loved better, became successful enough.
But the greatest transformation in my life didn't come from changing what was around me. It came from healing what was within me.
That discovery changed the way I lived, loved and led — and eventually became the work I would spend my life sharing with others.
Over four decades, I began to see a pathway through the work. Not a theory created in a room, but a journey I had lived myself and walked alongside many others.
Today, that journey is The White Heart Framework™ — The Twelve Milestones of Human Transformation™.
But underneath the framework, the courses, the retreats, the book, the podcast and everything else I create is one belief: You can be restored to the person God imagined. And so can your family and community.
And that is why I do this work.


Spiritual, Relational and Economic Restoration of People, Families and Communities.
For more than three decades, our family has quietly helped others — one person, one family, one community at a time.
Here in Canada, that has meant our own hands and our own giving, directly to the people in front of us. In India, Ghana and Haiti, it has meant supporting remarkable men and women already doing the work in their communities. We never put our name to any of it. We simply served where we could.
After all those years, that work is becoming The Love One Foundation — committed to spiritual, relational and economic restoration for individuals, families and communities.
Milestone Twelve is called Living Legacy for a reason. Healing was never meant to end with us. What is restored in one life can strengthen a family, transform a community and ripple through generations.
This is drawn from the prologue to The Diary of a Heart Healer — a collection of reflections, client stories and insights from forty years of this work, rather than a memoir. The memoir comes next. Discover the books →
On faith
My faith journey spans fifty-seven years, and it shapes who I am and everything I do. I am a follower of Jesus.
My work is shaped by my beliefs, but it is not about promoting them. The White Heart Framework™ is not a religious programme. People of every faith — and no faith — are welcome. No one is asked to believe what I believe, and no one is pressured to adopt a particular spiritual perspective.
The work is about the human heart: what we carry, how it shapes us, how we heal, and what becomes possible when we do.
For those who want their healing and transformation explicitly rooted in Christian faith, I also offer Christian that.
My faith shapes who I am. Your faith is always respected.
