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 had inherited her parents' “survivor” gene as she herself fought back to become a long-term cancer survivor.

Then at age 39, at her heaviest weight ever and concerned for her health, Roslyn decided to fight back once again… only this time it was to overcome her battles with food, weight and lifestyle, once and for all!

Roslyn can truly say that she's "been there, done that, wrote the book".

Roslyn owns and operates the Roslyn Franken Group, and is committed to helping people lighten up their lives one bite at a time by reaching and maintaining a healthy weight, balanced lifestyle, and positive life outlook. She provides practical guidance, personal insight and positive inspiration through her motivational speaking and personal consulting services, using the principles she developed and now shares in her book The A List: 9 Guiding Principles for Healthy Eating and Positive Living. By putting these principles into practice herself, she reached and maintains her current, healthy weight and remains cancer-free.

Roslyn has a Masters in Human Systems Intervention from Concordia University in Montreal and is a Certified Coach through the Professional School of Psychology in California.  As a subject matter expert, Roslyn is often called upon as a guest on television and radio as well as contributing to articles and columns to newspapers and magazines. 

Roslyn regularly gives back to the community through donations of her book, services and as host of the internet radio show “How to Thrive after 35”.

Roslyn’s personal interests include portraiture, the healing arts, cooking and song writing and she is happily married to Elliott Smith, a professional magician.
