Inspiration Through Adversity
About Candice
Candice Kirkbride’s story of personal triumph is truly remarkable.
Candice shares a painful experience that will go through you and leave you uplifted and inspired. Her wonderful message touches on the very reason why we do what we do, what motivates us and how we embrace our life’s mission. From tragedy there arose in Candice’s life a very powerful message that she shares with students, corporations, groups and anyone who longs to feel the fire of life overtake them and drive them to greater things.
What started out as a potent message to young people on the dangers of drinking and driving, Candice soon realized, as did her audiences that the message from her experience applied to everyone.

“Captivated by her story”
After reading her book Changed by the rain, I was captivated by her story. I invited Candice to speak to the members of Sudbury’s Fibromyalgia Support Group. The ladies were enthralled by her talk! She was warm, friendly, and brought a tremendously positive energy with her. Her story is heartbreaking and could easily leave one feeling incredible anger and bitterness. But Candice showed us that that even the worst experiences have something to teach us. She left us feeling like we could conquer and achieve anything! -Janet Lewis, coordinator, Sudbury Fibromyalgia Support Group

“Truly an honor and pleasure ”
It was truly an honour and pleasure to bring Candice to Timmins and watch her not only educate, but entertain our students. I found her presentation inspiring and so relevant to the work that I do in Timmins. She left a lasting impression on “my kids” that I can’t thank her enough. I am proud to say that after the long weekend in May, we did not have any injuries involving alcohol or other drugs. I spoke with several students and teachers in the last couple of weeks and they were all agree that Candice educated our youth to make smart decision with alcohl and other drugs. We hope to see her return to Timmins! Constable Rick Lemieux
“Candice’s message was riveting”
“As a community Services Officer with the OPP for over a decade I have strived to get out the message about the dangers of alcohol and making poor decisions. Today I had the pleasure to have Candice Kirkbride attend our high school and speak to our graduating class. Candice’s message was riveting, personal and hit home to many on how life can change in an instant. An auditorium full of teenagers you could hear a pin drop as Candice delivered her message. I know many youth will think twice on choices because of what Candice shared”. Provincial Constable Allan Boyd Community Services Officer Manitoulin OPP
