About Sage Resilience
At Sage Resilience, we believe that preparedness is power. We’re here to equip individuals and families with the knowledge and tools to confidently navigate any disaster—whether it’s a cyclone, wildfire, flood, or other emergency. Our mission is simple: to help people feel empowered and resilient in the face of uncertainty.
The idea for Sage Resilience was born out of my passion, and experience, with disaster management, personal development, and the overwhelming need to bridge the gap between people and the crucial information they need in times of crisis. Having worked in emergency management for years, I noticed a consistent theme: while communities were receiving alerts and information, many struggled to understand and act on them in real-time. I wanted to change that.
That’s why I created Sage Resilience. I want to help people not only prepare but also feel confident and empowered in their ability to make informed decisions when it matters most. In the chaos of a disaster, I believe that clarity, preparedness, and mental resilience can make all the difference.

Meet the girl behind the business
Hi, I’m Morgan—a proud Australian-Canadian with a love for the outdoors. I’ve spent my life skiing, snowboarding, trail running, and mountain biking, and now I split my time between two small towns—one in Australia and one in Canada. I’m also a cat lover, a volunteer firefighter-in-training, and a big fan of matcha and Peloton spin classes.
My passion for disasters started at eight when I watched Twister (yes, the classic with Bill Paxton and Helen Hunt). I dreamed of being a meteorologist, but life had other plans. I studied law, then nutrition, and worked in marketing for brands like lululemon and Vega before going freelance. It wasn’t my calling, though.
In my thirties, I became a State Emergency Services volunteer in Australia, which eventually led me to disaster management. I’ve worked as a fire dispatcher, emergency management officer, and in public information. Through this journey, I realized my true passion wasn’t weather forecasting—it was helping people navigate disaster situations.
Having worked in both Australia and Canada, I’ve gained worldly expertise in disaster management from two countries that face vastly different types of crises. This unique perspective helps me offer tailored advice and resources for each.
That’s why I created Sage Resilience. I saw how confusing and inaccessible disaster preparedness information can be. People remain unprepared because they think disaster won’t happen to them. But the truth is, it can happen to anyone. My goal is to make disaster preparedness “cool” and approachable with straightforward, actionable advice to help you feel empowered and ready when disaster strikes.
In addition, I’m working towards a Bachelor of Psychological Science and I’m a yoga and meditation teacher. All of these tools help build mental resilience in times of crisis and I share them with my clients.
At Sage Resilience, I aim to give you the resources and knowledge to recover faster from disasters and feel empowered to deal with them. Stay safe, and take care of one another!
Morgan
