Carly is a real estate Team Leader and speaker based on Vancouver Island, known for her ability to build meaningful relationships and create experiences rooted in care and connection. After being diagnosed with a rare and aggressive cancer while travelling in Japan on her birthday, Carly’s life took an unexpected turn. What followed was a period of uncertainty, delayed treatment, and deep reflection that reshaped how she chose to live. Out of that experience, Carly co-created Carly’s House with her husband, a home they are renovating to offer comfort and support to cancer patients receiving treatment in their community. What began as a personal challenge has become a way to give back and create something meaningful for others walking a similar path. Through her work and her story, Carly speaks to the power of choice in the face of the unknown and what it means to build a life that is not only successful but deeply aligned and impactful.
