Women Blazing Trails

Welcome to Women Blazing Trails! I'm glad you're here! Let me introduce myself so you can get to know the person behind this platform. I’m Iva, a Canadian expat in my 50s, currently residing in Guatemala. I originally came here in October 2015 with plans to stay for just 4-6 months, but now I proudly call this beautiful country my home. One of my key motivations for moving was to help combat malnutrition and make a difference in the fight against hunger. A significant portion of my online earnings goes towards feeding children in need. (And yes, escaping those chilly Canadian winters was definitely a bonus!) I transitioned from being a hairstylist to a freelance writer, and my mission with this website is to inspire and empower women everywhere to embrace their true selves and live joyfully. You’ll find more about my journey in my personal blog posts, where I discuss overcoming fears, welcoming change, and how I reclaimed my happiness and success. I share my experiences in hopes that one of my stories will resonate with you and spark a ‘Hell Ya’ moment in your own life!
