True change does not begin with effort — but with the knowing of Truth.
Tetiana Pysarenko
Author & Storyteller
Welcome!
I’m glad you’ve chosen to get to know me better.
Who I Am
I am an author and a mental health specialist, originally from Ukraine and now living in Canada.
My journey has taken me through different countries, seasons, and life experiences — each shaping who I am today.
Life is made up of different seasons, and each of them is a brick that lays the foundation of who we become.
Professional Path
My professional journey began with a degree in Marketing, which led me into business, consulting, and leadership roles.
Over the years, I worked as a business consultant, trainer, and speaker, leading seminars and working closely with people and teams.
In 2020, my path took a new direction as I earned a degree in Psychology in Ukraine and began working in individual counseling.
During this time, I also worked with children’s centers, led seminars for parents, and became the author and host of programs on Radio M — a Christian radio station sharing a message of hope across Ukraine.
It was also during this time that my first books and children’s stories were born.
In 2022, a turning point came when the war began in Ukraine, and I was forced to leave my country.
My journey continued in Europe, where I supported refugees and worked with people going through crisis and loss.
During this period, I contributed as an expert to an international project supporting over 5,000 Ukrainian children in more than 22 countries, based on my author-developed method “Map of a Happy Life.”
Today, my life and work continue in Canada — with the same desire to support, guide, and create.
Beyond what we can see, there is always more — and that is where faith begins.
FAITH & CALLING
I am a Christian.
In 2015, I had a real encounter with God. Since then, my faith has not been a form — it has become my foundation. I believe that God loves people, my life, and me. And that Jesus Christ is the Savior — the Way, the Truth, and the Life.
He is my foundation, the One on whom I build my life. This truth is the core of who I am.
Today, my work is my calling — to support, encourage, and inspire. Through consultations, my books, online programs, videos on my YouTube channel, blog articles, and social media.
All of this is for one purpose: to help you find Love, Meaning, Faith… yourself.
To live your life fully and joyfully — the way it was meant to be lived. To fulfill your unique calling — the one entrusted to you by your Creator. He has already placed within you everything you need: your gifts, talents, character, relationships, and the potential waiting to be revealed.
“For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.” (Ephesians 2:10)
True strength comes when we find the Source of Life.
Life & Family
Family is one of the greatest values in my life. It is a gift from God. But a happy family is not only a gift — it is a journey: love, the ability to give, to accept, to communicate, and to move in the same direction, even when the road is not always easy.
In 2012, my beloved daughter was born. This moment changed my life forever. My Masha… Together, we walk the path of her growing up — step by step, day by day.
For 11 years, I raised her on my own. I know what it means to combine motherhood with responsibility, to face challenges, questions, and inner struggles, and still hold on to faith. This experience allows me to deeply understand and support other women who walk a similar path.
Today, she is a teenager, and we share a close, trusting relationship. We are not only mother and daughter — we are also friends. And I know how valuable this is.
In 2023, a new season began in my life — a time of profound change. My daughter and I moved to Canada. Here, I met my husband, and our family became complete. My daughter now has a father.
My husband Rob, is my strength, my protection, and my support. He is my friend, my partner, and my love. Life with him is a journey into a new depth of maturity, trust, and awareness.
Today, we live in a small city — St. Catharines, in the Niagara Region, near Niagara Falls.
For me, my family is not just a life story. It is a testimony of how God works in a person’s life — bringing change at the right time, breaking fears and limiting beliefs, and giving more than one could ever imagine.
And so, Canada became my second home…
And so, a new season in my life began…
Family is a gift from God that grows through love, trust, and the daily choice to be there for one another.
CREATIVITY & INSPIRATION
As long as I can remember, I have always written. I wrote stories, poems, and reflections. When social media appeared, posts began to take shape — words meant to inspire, support, give hope, reveal hidden meaning, and respond to the questions that truly matter.
As I grew creatively, I explored different forms: developing children’s educational games such as “Organized Little One,” drawing, diamond painting, sculpting, paint-by-numbers, and oil painting. What began as a hobby gradually became part of my professional work — and a way of living out my calling.
This is how my books for adults, developmental materials for children and women, and new stories were born. Their characters come to life on the pages and carry a central message: a person’s life is not accidental — it is filled with meaning. We are born to be happy. We are born to bring goodness into this world by using our gifts and talents.
We are created in a wonderful and beautiful way — unique and unlike anyone else. But most importantly, we are created to know the Truth, to be filled with the love of the One who created us, and to share that love with the world.
Love can restore what once felt lost and give more than we could ever ask or imagine.
Hobbies & Interests
Simple moments in life matter deeply to me — the ones that restore, fill, and bring me back to myself.
I love coffee, quiet time by the lake, bike rides, and gardening. There is something special in planting, caring, watering, and watching things grow. In those moments, I am reminded of the Creator — of how beautifully and thoughtfully this world was made, with love and meaning. And of how we are entrusted to care for it, to cultivate and protect its beauty.
Through this, I feel renewed and begin to understand more deeply the heart of the Heavenly Father — the One who creates, renews, and gives life for joy.
I love cozy evenings by the fire, meaningful conversations about life, values, and purpose, and quiet moments where I can simply pause and be.
I still love to draw and continue exploring new forms of creativity.
I believe that in these simple things, we are restored, filled, and begin to notice the presence of God in our lives.
In the simple moments of life, the most precious things are often hidden.
Today, I am officially registered as an entrepreneur in Canada (St. Catharines, ON) and work in the fields of mental health support, mentorship, original online programs, and publishing.
