The Art of Living Well; Embodied, Empowered & Beyond... ~ FionnA






Meet Fionna: Advocate • Artist • Activist

For more than two decades, I’ve lived, worked and created inside the mental health and social care systems - first as someone simply trying to survive them and later as a Peer Support Provider, advocate and educator committed to changing them from the inside out.

My work is rooted in a simple belief:
You are not broken. You’re responding to what you’ve lived through... and to the ways your body learned to cope.
The NvsN (en·vi·sion) System was born from my own lived experience with childhood adversity, chronic stress, burnout, misdiagnosis and the long road back to myself.

Today, I help individuals and professionals move from survival mode into Living Well - in ways that are trauma-informed, compassion-centered, human-first and truly sustainable.

The Flipside...

This is the other side of who I am and how I express my inner world
Alongside teaching, peer work and structured learning, I also work things out through poetry, prose & personal photography. These are not polished products or programs - they’re how ideas take shape, how experience becomes language and how meaning is made.
Some people connect through frameworks and learning.
Others through story, imagery or reflection.
A balance between Nature & Nurture

  • Poetry & Prose
  • Personal essays and reflections

  • Self-care, routines, nourishment, movement and rest
  • Meaning, purpose, relationships and environment
  • Time, learning and personal growth
No pressure. No overwhelm. Only meaningful updates.
