Peace and serenity can be found in your own backyard. Literally.
You don’t need to take a plane, and you don’t need to leave the comforts of your own surroundings. You just have to create it for yourself. It’s 7:30am. Sun is rising. Whole family is asleep upstairs. Reading the paper, sipping coffee, trying to build my own bliss. Happy Saturday. #FindYourBliss #SelfCare

Have you heard of TIME BLOCKING?
This morning’s Global TV segment was on a topic that I love – getting organized and effectively managing your time. And it came about as a result of a work/life balance evening I led last week. I gave a workshop to 25 men and women, and the biggest struggles shared by both the men and women alike, are the ability to manage their time, maximize both their work day and personal life, avoid distractions and interruptions, and be productive with their hours. I thought it might make a good segment after I saw the challenges most of us face.
Take a look, and share your best tips with us below! 🙂
Spring has sprung! I couldn’t be happier.
When spring arrives, it signals that summer is around the corner. For many, summer is a wonderful time to travel and explore a new city, try a new adventure. Anyone have wanderlust? I’m guilty.
On Friday April 7th, I celebrated my birthday by sharing the day with 120 women in my first-ever conference, Off The Fence & WISE. Off The Fence & WISE became the collaboration of two Montreal empowerment brands: Women On The Fence and Wise Women Canada. The day was happy, it was funny, it was heavy, it was dark, it was uplifting, it was spirited. And it surpassed my greatest expectations.
I LOVED yesterday morning’s topic.
Wondering what the the #1 determinant of long term success in kids is? Intelligence? IQ? Natural talent? Some fascinating research here, so parents, don’t miss this one. And I won’t give it away in the post, you’ll just have to watch.
Before I go, I want to close with my favorite parenting quote. As a certified life coach, mentor, entrepreneur, and mom to two boys, age 10 and 13, I know this to be true.
To be honest, there is little to add here. Please watch this. I can’t think of a better #MotivationMonday. What I will say is, the older I get, the more like myself I feel. I’m not holding back. I just want to be… ME. I think at 40, you suddenly wake up to your life.
What do you think?
It’s official: Spring is here!
And being the Brand Ambassador for LE CHÂTEAU, I wanted to show you on this #WorkWearWednesday, some amazing spring workwear looks!

I couldn’t be more excited to make this announcement today, WomenOnTheFencers!
On April 7th, 2017, get ready to feel inspired, empowered, and armed with the tools to rock your life.
Combining our passion and dedication to empowering women, Lisa Brookman and Liz Wiener (WiseWomenCanada.com) and me, Erica Diamond (WomenOnTheFence.com), have joined forces and are excited to announce the launch of Off The Fence and WISE – Montreal’s first Women’s Wellness and Growth Conference aimed at helping women renew, regenerate and evolve to become their best selves.
This full-day conference is comprised of an impressive roster of some of Canada’s best known and most inspiring women speakers. Whether you’re an individual looking for personal growth or a company looking to empower your employees, the day is an excellent opportunity to learn invaluable lessons from our expert panel which is sure to foster growth and creativity.
Silicon Valley believes that if you aren’t failing frequently, you aren’t risking enough. This philosophy serves the high-tech capital well, but chances are you likely don’t follow that same approach in your own life.
But you should. Because failure is your friend.
Henry Ford — one of our great inventors and someone who failed more often than he succeeded — said “failure is an opportunity to begin again more intelligently.” And yet, more often than not, we fear failure and avoid it at all costs, even if it means sacrificing opportunity and potential happiness. We let fear paralyze us until we’re stuck in inertia, when we should be embracing “good” risk and failing up.
I help busy women (like you!) prioritize self-care so you can experience less stress, more calm and greater joy every day!
