Cher

Hey Warrior! Welcome. Thank you for taking the time to check us out. I read the about section first too when I’m assessing someone new. And give me a freakin’ picture of what they look like! Am I right?!

My passion is to take what I have learned works from my own healing journey and apply it to encouraging others on their journeys. I believe that everyone who chooses to, has the potential to unbury their true selves from the rubble of circumstances that have impacted their lives and to sparkle again. I have seen first hand with numerous people the healing qualities of relentless love, belief, and kindness.

My name is Cherylyn Tanner, but I go by Cher. I am a registered nurse (RN), a Certified Nurse Psychotherapist (Qualifying), and the owner of Sparkle Kingdom Warriors. I am the wife of a veteran of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF). My background has been in community nursing, operating room nursing, and voluntary support of a variety of trauma survivors from both the military and civilian sides of life.   

I have lived through and healed from traumatic events in my own life. I know the darkness of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). I have first hand knowledge of the challenges of choosing to live when the nightmares, the flashbacks, the panic attacks, the insomnia, the seemingly never ending adrenaline, the physical and emotional pain compounding each other all pile on and block out the light of hope. I know that choosing to heal is the most courageous war that anyone will ever fight. This personal insight coupled with my professional knowledge and experiences makes me uniquely qualifed to provide support with greater than having read a textbook understanding.

I am committed to being a safe place to be completely raw and honest regardless of the emotion or the thought. I give space to bring the intensity and darkness into the open and allow it to breathe without judgement.

I believe that all emotions are acceptable but not all behaviours are.

I believe that when we feel the feels that don’t feel comfortable or enjoyable, we are then also able to feel the feels that feel exquisite and joyful.

The programs and products offered through Sparkle Kingdom are designed to support your journey to rise from the ashes victorious. The traumatic events that have tried to take you down and knock you out don’t get to win. At the end of the battle, you are the one holding the defeated helmet in victory. You choose to live and continue to fight because you are supported and worth it.

You are valuable. You are loved. You are worth the effort it takes to heal and the strength it takes to keep choosing to live. You have purpose.​
