About The Wisteria Fairy
A cozy fairytale life at the pace of the seasons
Welcome, dear fairy! My name is Anne, and I’m the creator of The Wisteria Fairy. My mission is to inspire gentle souls to turn their lives into a dreamy fairytale by nurturing their body, mind, and soul, so they can blossom into the Queen of their Inner Kingdom. I invite romantic dreamers to luxuriate in life's delectable beauty by thoughtfully cultivating a cozy, enchanted art of living at the pace of the seasons, as they bring their dreams to life.
If you also love fairytales, I will tell you about mine.
So cozy up with a warm drink… it’s story time!
My Fairytale “ From Darkness to Light”
↠ Chapter 1: Locked In My Tower ↞
Once upon a time, on a faraway French tropical island, I felt trapped, like Rapunzel, in a life I dreaded. I was very shy, overweight, struggling with a Generalized Anxiety Disorder and felt completely alien from this place.
Like many romantic dreamers, I spent years longing for a life that would feel as magical as the whole fairytale package, but reality often felt… dull.
I was told my big dreams were impossible, but I refused to believe it, even when what I craved felt out of reach!
2012-2014
↞ Chapter 2: My “Cinderella Makeover” ↠
In late 2012, I went through a spiritual awakening, culminating by a dark night of the soul in 2014. That same year, after a heart-breaking toxic relationship, I vowed to never feel this way ever again, and to take my destiny in my own hands by becoming the best version of myself.
So, I went through a radical, life-changing transformation: I deeply immersed myself in personal development, drastically changed my diet, and committed to daily workouts. After a couple of months, I was unrecognizable.
Pain became a potent catalyst for my greatest metamorphosis, and for that, I am deeply grateful.
2015 - 2016
↞ Chapter 3: A Frozen Dream ↠
In 2015, I left my island and moved to the South of France, which was… a compromise. Soon after, I took a leap of faith to change the plans that were made for me. And in 2016, I went into the unknown, all by myself, to make a long-awaited dream come true: moving to Canada.
The moment I stepped into Quebec City in January’s biting cold (-30°C / -22°F), I felt exactly like Elsa in Frozen: finally free. And for the first time in forever, I felt truly at home.
2017 - now
↞ Chapter 4: Happy Ending ↠
Since then, many dreams have come true. I met my prince charming, the love of my life in 2017, and he proposed in 2024 at Blenheim Palace during the best trip of my life to England, straight out of a fairytale!
Now, I continue to cultivate an enchanted life and manifest my dreams, The Wisteria Fairy being one of them! This wild journey ignited a desire to help others who feel lost, as I once was. Which inspired my mission…
The End…
is just The Beginning
↞ The birth of The Wisteria Fairy ↠
Over the past decade since my transformation, I’ve deeply explored natural wellness, personal growth, spirituality, and life design, both through data and direct experience. In recent years, I softened my once all-or-nothing mindset to a more balanced approach.
One of the greatest lessons I’ve learned is that dreams really do come true, but chasing them obsessively steals the joy from them! The true magic lies in romanticizing the journey, finding beauty in everyday moments, even through life’s most challenging times. And so, The Wisteria Fairy was born from the fertile soil of my journey’s synthesis.
