About
Roslyn Franken
Roslyn Franken was born in Montreal to a mother who
survived the concentration camps of Nazi Germany and a father who survived the Japanese
slave labour camps as a Prisoner of War.
Diagnosed with cancer at age 29, Roslyn quickly learned
that she inherited her parents' survivor gene as she fought back to become
herself a long-term cancer survivor.
The experience provoked her return to school (Masters in
Human Systems Intervention from Concordia University in Montreal and certification through
the Professional School of Psychology in California) and inspired a career as a counselor, personal coach and motivational speaker.
The cancer experience also taught her what it means to
lose your health. She knows how difficult a fight it is to stay positive when life
is throwing you those unexpected curve balls. She knows what it takes to bounce
back, stay focused and on track.
As she approached 40, Roslyn's personal struggles with
food and weight issues led to the creation of the techniques that changed her life. By
putting the principles into practice, she reached and maintains her current, healthy
weight.
Roslyn now primarily counsels clients who want to change
their lives for the better through weight and lifestyle management, using the principles
she developed and now shares in her book The A List: 9 Guiding Principles for Healthy
Eating and Positive Living.
Roslyn is happily married to Elliott Smith, a
professional magician, and enjoys portraiture, the healing arts, cooking and song writing.
As a subject matter expert Roslyn is
often called upon as a guest on television and radio as
well as to contribute articles and columns
to newspapers and magazines. Roslyn regularly
gives back to the community through donations of her book and services.
