So, this came up in my Facebook memories yesterday. My second blog post ever. Feeling all sentimental this week since it was our 8th blogiversary on Monday, so I thought I’d do a little #ThrowbackThursday in honor of anniversary week.
Wow, how times have changed (like the weight gain since this post), and yet still remain the same!
Enjoy blog post #2 – exactly eight years later.
Today we celebrate the 8th anniversary of a blog that was born out of feeling stuck, on the fence, alone, confused, and wanting to create a space for women to get inspired, get off the fence, grow, succeed and thrive. You have made that happen. I am grateful for this community who has stood by me in my darkest hours, my greatest triumphs, and given me a safe place to be authentic myself. You have also helped each other, and inspired each other into action. Never underestimate the power of a few simple words on a page.
This year I am celebrating our Blogiversary by flying to Toronto to attend an evening of women’s empowerment for WIFT (Women In Film and Television), and you can follow that journey on my social media channels.
Workforce analysts predict that by 2018, more than half of American small businesses will be run by women.
Just let that soak in for a moment…
Every March, Women’s History Month celebrates the storied accomplishments of women in American history. Successful women have played a vital role in shaping the course of life in America and around the world, and that role is only growing with time.
And the numbers speak for themselves.
Who doesn’t love a great contest?!
So when I can share a great one with you, WomenOnTheFencers, I love it!
With back to school upon us and Canadian Thanksgiving next month in October, this time of year is all about managing the busyness of our lives. I wanted to draw your attention today to something cool that Aeroplan is doing that is reaaaallly exciting! For those that might not remember, I have proudly been Aeroplan’s Brand Ambassador for a few years now.
“I’ve found another position, and will be leaving at the end of the month.”
Do you dream of saying that to your boss, but can’t?
Life makes us put major changes on hold sometimes. For one reason or another, you may have to stay on the fence between a job you hate, and finding something new.
While you’re biding your time, waiting for the opportunity to escape from the soul crushing grind, you could just drift through your days, putting in the bare minimum. Or instead, you could make a conscious decision to do something for yourself, and get whatever good you can out of your current position.
I help busy women (like you!) prioritize self-care so you can experience less stress, more calm and greater joy every day!
