Balance is key for Jenna McGrath as she runs her two businesses, homeschools her children, acts as a birth doula and serves on Jasper’s municipal council.
McGrath was born in 1984 to Patricia and Jim Gubbins and spent all of her childhood in Hamilton, Ont.
“I lived a pretty plain Jane, city lifestyle with shared custody between parents and a pretty average upbringing,” she said.
