Charlotte is a women's health advocate, university student, founder of 'Charlotte's Women's Health Hub', and pink enthusiast! She brings her upbeat, enthusiastic and inspired spirit to everything she pours her heart into.
follow CharlotteCharlotte's first hand experiences dealing with premenstrual dysmorphic disorder and chronic migraines made clear to her that change in the women's health space was necessary. Knowing she was not alone in the isolation, dismissal and pain she felt dealing with uniquely women's experiences in health, she was inspired to become the change her fifteen year old self needed; this year, Charlotte brought her passion project to life by creating and founding 'Charlotte's Women's Health Hub', her blog style platform where she shares her own story, magnifies other women's voices, and shares and creates resources to help women become their healthiest and happiest self. She is on a mission to create a safe space for women to be seen and heard in regards to mental and physical health while inspiring the real change needed for the future of women's health! Her past involvement as a board member of the Women’s Health Coalition of Alberta and VP Events for the Interdisciplinary Women’s Health Association gave her the opportunity to volunteer her time and skills to furthering conversation, fundraising, and awareness for women’s health and gain valuable experience she carries into her current ventures.
As a driven student Charlotte's academic ventures have been an important keystone in her life; graduating high school as co-valedictorian and following her dreams of pursuing an Earth and Atmospheric science degree at a top school in the nation, University of Alberta, Charlotte has persevered in spite of her PMDD and chronic health struggles, and aims to show other women they can to! She lives by her motto 'why not me' and speaks out to inspire 'why not you too', that anyone can soar to their dreams no matter their circumstances. Once she completes her degree April 2024 Charlotte is pursuing nursing school to further her aspirations in women's health
My advocacy
Charlotte's Women's Health Hub
During her reign as Miss Queen Alberta, Charlotte was inspired to found 'Charlotte's Women's Health Hub', her blog style platform which aims to create a central 'hub' for all things women's health, from resources, to women's stories, to tips and advice and beyond. When building CWHH Charlotte really wanted to create the resource her 15 year old self needed. What set's CWHH apart is its personal component, Charlotte shares her own story and uplifts other women's words. CWHH also shares many medical and naturopathic resources and information. Charlotte has felt the positive impact of journaling and now creates and shares free downloadable self-growth worksheets to help women become their best selves! CWHH is about all dimensions of health including mental, physical, emotional, occupational and social. Charlotte is aiming to create real change in women's health by positively impacting each reader and growing CWHH to an international scale.

Mental Health Fundraiser
I am currently running my fundraising initiative to support mental health in youth across Canada by partnering with Sophia Lia Magazine. All donations will be allocated towards putting Sophia Lia Mag into schools in the Edmonton community, Alberta and across the country. Sophia Lia Mag is a mental health and wellness magazine dedicated to reducing the stigma of mental health and starting conversations. Getting these magazines into schools makes mental health resources accessible to everyone! I have even been published sharing my own mental health experience in the magazine.

NOMINEE - TITLEHOLDER OF THE YEAR 2024
I have dreamed of representing Canada since I was a little girl and since receiving this incredible opportunity in August of 2023 my life has completely changed. I knew since the crown touched my head the impact, connection and legacy I wanted to leave with my time as the reigning Miss Personality Canada, and being nominated for this award I am overflowing with gratitude that my peers celebrate the heart I have poured into this past year with me. I have chased my goals and experienced photoshoots, speaking at an elementary school, being published in a magazine, appearing at festivals, fundraising, hosting workshops, mentoring, launching my merch, being on the news and so many more special memories, accomplishments and connections. I am thankful to have been able to share this journey with my community in over 500 posts on social media. This year has been nothing short of transformational. Thank you for this recognition and a piece of my heart will forever be Miss Personality Canada.

MISS QUEEN ALBERTA 2022-23
Being Miss Queen Alberta truly changed my life. It made my dreams into reality. Catapulted my confidence, self assurance and internal happiness. It brought me experiences, friendships, and opportunities beyond what I could have imagined. It inspired me to pursue my passion for women’s health, pushed me to improve my skills for nationals, encouraged me to make the most of every day and, most remarkably, showed myself how capable and amazing I am. It was the thing that made me feel like me again after feeling lost and untethered. As my first title this will always mean so much to me and hold a special place in my heart. My experience as a provincial titleholder was monumental in achieving my dream of being Miss Personality Canada.
Thank you so much for checking out my page and I hope you had fun getting to know me! I am so excited to continue my year as Miss Personality Canada and journey to the Miss Personality International crown. I would love to have you join me on this experience by following my social medias.
I am on a mission to make positive impact across Canada and the world. I am so ecstatic to make Canada proud on the international stage.
With love,
Miss Personality Canada 2023
