Tynan Thacker

Meet Tynan Thacker. She is a proud Métis woman, full time mother of two busy boys and a certified fitness instructor at the Cumberland YMCA in Amherst, NS. She enjoys sharing her knowledge and passion about how individuals can change their lives by being physically active and by believing in themselves. Tynan has struggled with depression for most of her life but until recently was unaware that her symptoms had a name. Her diagnosis has brought an understanding which has led to an entire life change. Tynan has worked hard to get to this point and now understands how to cope with her illness. She wants to share her story so others living with depression know they are not alone. FACE IT. Mental illness concerns us all.
