What is Evolve?

Evolving Windsor

EVOLVE launched in January 2022 after the pandemic caused severe isolation and loss of
connection within community. 

The purpose of Evolve is to bring together community through connection, events, workshops and normalizing mental health and wellness through a trauma informed lens. 
 
Laura & Bianca are a dynamic, determined duo that are passionate about creating wellness in the world, starting with our Windsor-Essex community.

“Mental fitness is just as important as physical fitness and shouldn’t be neglected. Last year someone close to me was in a very dark place and it really opened my eyes. Mental health does not discriminate, it affects the strongest people, the people we think would never go through depression, anxiety etc. When Laura told me about Evolve I knew it was something I needed to be apart of. I’m so excited to be part of the Evolve team and see the vision of creating a safe space to heal/talk openly! Laura has such great ideas to get the community involved and fun ways to help with mental health.”

“I am so thankful for Evolve being created in a time when we need to put our community and mental wellness first. I have always found it so hard to find opportunities to give back that align with my values. Evolve has placed an emphasis on the need to do more for Windsor-Essex’s mental health. I love that evolve raises awareness and money to services that benefit each and every one of us. I am so grateful to be part of a community that cares for one another and checks in to see how we are doing mentally, physically, spiritually and emotionally.”

I could not feel and be more aligned to EVOLVE & what it’s all about. When I met Laura, our connection was instant. As someone who advocates passionately for Mental Health & Wellness using a Holistic Approach I love being able to share & spread Awareness in Supportive gentle ways. I was So Happy to have been Graced to Hold Space & Lead a few Give Back Yoga classes out of Breathe Pilates & Fitness Studio As well as a Restorative Yoga in the Park event!! I Believe there is such Strength in Somatic’s, as it helps calm & create more ease in the Healing process. Movement is Medicine, The more We are able to Reconnect to Ourselves & Others, the more we are able to Heal, the more we Feel Connection, the more we can Evolve as whole. This is Community.
