Lee Horbachewski is known to many as SimpLee Serene.  She is an Author, Speaker, Coach, Advocate and Philanthropic Entrepreneur.

Lee knows firsthand the fear, isolation and desperation that characterizes the illness that affects 1 in 5 Canadians.  In 2004, at the age of 33, Lee's desperate battle with depression and anxiety came to a head when she made three attempts to end her life.  Looking back Lee recognizes that her pain was her purpose in disguise. She has since dedicated her life to helping others and is fervently committed to have mental illness talked about as openly as cancer.  "Together we have the power to change and reduce the stigma that surrounds mental illness and suicide.  The only way we will do so is by more people talking about it without judgment and fear". She courageously exposes the truth of her torturous journey in the inspiring and compelling tell-all "A Quiet Strong Voice".
