Today, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the COVID-19 outbreak as an actual Pandemic and while they’re stressing that this label isn’t cause for alarm, that we’re all supposed to keep doing what we’re doing to slow down the spread of the virus, of course…many of us are panicking. Whether the panic comes from fear of the unknown, from stories …
I truly believe there’s a way to succeed in whatever goal I’m reaching for, nothing is impossible. For sure, might not always happen on an original timetable and the journey will definitely take detours but with Hope, Action and Creativity, combined with Confidence and Tenacity to keep going, it’s all possible. Those are the keys, I believe. First Hope – …
Anyone else get ridiculously excited over new planners? I’m such a pen and paper girl that when I open a new notebook, planner or organizer, the anticipation is palpable. Especially at this time of year – it feels new and fresh. And also intimidating and a bit full of pressure. The idea that at this time of year we need …
Are you as excited for 2020 as I am? As we’re getting closer to the start of the latest decade, I can’t help but feel this excitement and anticipation of what’s to come. One of the really cool initiatives I get to work on next year is creating sustainment opportunities for the personal and professional development training started this year …
This is my most favourite time of the year. For sure, it’s stressful and busy – the schedule coordination is out-of-control! 🙂 But there is so much to be thankful for at this time of year too, regardless whether you celebrate the Christmas holiday or not.

Which I will write about because it’s a good topic, trust me 😊 But something else really resonated with me and I wanted to share it with you in case it resonated too. Today, a friend of mine told me that it’s okay …
Ever wonder why you’re attracted to certain people and what it is about them that appeals? I learned about “mirror neurons” today, neurons in our body that are precise mimics of situations, actions and experiences that go on around us. From the slightest cues, they pick up intention and emotions from those we surround ourselves with. These biological delights are …
I spend a lot of time reading about, researching and trying to change, my habits. Unconsciously, our behaviours are influenced in a huge way by our habits, the routines we’ve executed on over the years. From addictions to fitness routines, to eating, driving and even how we get dressed in the morning, how our brain processes these routines is even …
September is my favourite time of year. It’s usually still warm during the day but getting cooler for sleeping at night. The leaves start slowly but surely changing color, starting their colorful descent into fall. And the campgrounds empty out, leaving lots of space for us fall campers! It also kind of feels like New Years Eve. Without the ball …
I met my husband online, back in the olden days before interest was shown by swiping right or left.
