Calling All EARTHLINGS.
We are Earthlings. Not Canadians. Not Americans. Not Chinese, Indian or Australian. We are Earthlings. We ALL belong to ONE planet; ONE earth. To each other. We ALL belong HERE. No ONE person has any greater right to be here than any other person. When we fall under the spell–even for a moment–that we are…
Pressing PAUSE.
Recently, I was interviewed by my dear friend Anita Brown and her amazing co-host, Jill Johns. Together, they run The Pause Button 2.0 podcast, where they help people upgrade their self-care. They have also just opened registration for their brand new online course called “The Upleveler“, designed to help you create important shifts in your…
Let’s DECIDE.
If you know me, you’ll know I am a huge fan of making decisions. As I type that, I realize it could sound… arrogant. I don’t mean it to. I have made many, many, MANY very poor decisions over my lifetime. Way more than I could ever count. But as I’ve worked on myself over…

How We Make Others FEEL.
Last weekend, Roger and I attended our annual family reunion in my hometown of Waterloo. It’s always a fun time of year, where we get to catch up my with cousins and their kids, my beloved aunt, and my immediate family who I don’t get to see very often. I also get a very special…
What Can We DO?
There is a lot going on in the world. More issues to focus on than we have the bandwidth to possibly process. How do we choose? What do we do? How do we help? And how do we not feel like giving in under the weight of the issues and just retreat in defeat? I…
She STOLE From Me.
Last week, one of our Exhibitors in The Healthy Brain and Body Show forwarded me an email. It was from another show organizer, asking if they would like to be a vendor in a new wellness expo coming to Ottawa. I am always happy to see new health shows entering the market, and so what…
People Don’t Decide; Habits Decide.
