Happy September! I CANNOT believe Labour Day weekend has passed. To me, this time of year symbolizes the end of summer. I welcome Fall… I love a great big cozy sweater, a pair of skinnies and a good pair of leather boots. But fall means the beginning of our Montreal winters, which = INSANITY.
Taking a LITTLE girl to a shooting range? To shoot a gun that shoots 600 rounds a minute? I’m speechless because this is all COMPLETELY ABSURD. Don’t we want our little girls to learn which sport is healthy and best for them? Don’t we want them to learn about their connection to this peaceful earth?
It’s not everyday you get to meet trailblazers. Glass ceiling breakers. It’s not every day you get to meet people who were doing things FIRST. I have been fortunate enough to have met and interviewed some remarkable people over the years since starting this women’s lifestyle brand 5 years ago, next month.
I saw this video while ironically sitting having breakfast with my husband in Paris two weeks ago, and if I am to be honest, it stopped me dead in my tracks. It was a cold, harsh reality check that made me recognize some bad habits I have formed over the past few years. That many of us have formed over the past few years.
Look Up is a spoken film in poetic form created by Gary Turk. ‘Look Up’ is a lesson taught to us through a love story, in a world where we continue to find ways to make it easier for us to connect with one another, but always result in us spending more time alone. Alone looking down at our phones.
I have waited all week for this WORDLESS WEDNESDAY. Today we’re off the fence! Today we’re celebrating my love of four things: My Montreal Canadiens (AKA Habs), Jimmy Fallon, Twitter and a good bet.
In case you don’t follow hockey, it was the Habs Vs. the New York Rangers in the NHL playoffs last week. And in case you don’t know much about Canada, WE LOVE OUR HOCKEY! Well, my fave Jimmy Fallon took to Twitter to confirm a bet offered up by our Habs.
Calling all moms, aunties, and grandmothers! Today’s post is actually why I started blogging in the first place– to provide a safe and inclusive community to share and learn from likeminded women all working toward the same goal – to be the best and happiest that they can be.
Maya Angelou has inspired me and so many, so deeply over the years, that I would like to honor her memory on today’s Wordless Wednesday. There is no better way to honor her life than to share her wisdom with all of you.
I am here celebrating my husband’s 40th birthday. Leaving the kids was honestly quite stressful, with a lot of tears (we have never left them for more than three days). The first day was very difficult. The second one, a little easier. Now… WHAT KIDS?! 😉
We’ve settled into a well-needed vacation together and surrendered to magic of this romantic city. I’ve also surrendered to the loving care of the grandparents at home knowing that the boys are in safe hands.
Just a few moments…
Summer is almost in the air. In Montreal, we’re seeing more sunshine, warmer temperatures, and it’s putting our city in a festive spirit. To gear us up for one of my favorite seasons, I wanted to share some fun, must-have summer apps for your smart phones and tablets. I love sharing ways to simplify our lives, and these are just fantastic.
Yes, I got this email from my husband over the weekend and it made me squirt my coffee from my nose. Maybe THIS explains the weight gain I wrote about on Monday. Oh boy, I think I have LESS eating and MORE putting out to do.
I help busy women (like you!) prioritize self-care so you can experience less stress, more calm and greater joy every day!
