What a world we’re living in, hey? This is not quite the intro I was planning to write for our episode with the incredible Amanda Muse, but here we are. First and foremost, I want to say I hope you are well and keeping yourself and your loved ones safe. I know staying home feels […]
Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro is not for the faint of heart – as Christa Singleton proves, it’s for the fearless. I think I was scrolling through @womenwhohike on Instagram one day when they featured a group of plus size women who were training to climb Mount Kilimanjaro. They called themselves the Curvy Kili Crew. I started […]
This week on the podcast I’m so pleased to be joined by local teacher, world traveler and incredible mom, Jody Danchuk. Way back when my husband and I backpacked Southeast Asia in 2014, I vividly remember this Australian family that we kept running into as we travelled throughout Vietnam (most travellers go a similar route). […]
Back in 2017, I participated in an event called PechaKucha (pronounced peh-chuh-ka-chuh). For those who don’t know what that is (I certainly did not), these events are held around the world, a central theme is chosen, and speakers are allowed to share 20 slides with 20 seconds each.

I was recently reading a book where the author talked about the concept of children picking their parents. She spoke as though these yet to be born little souls are out there in the universe, looking down at the parents that are pregnant out there, and making a decision as to who they will pop […]
I’ve been reading a fascinating book lately. It’s called The Upside To Your Dark Side: Why Being Your Whole Self – Not Just Your Good Self – Drives Success and Fulfillment. No, I’m not talking Darth Vader dark side here, but the book really tackles this idea that we have in western society about fake […]
The tiny home movement is taking the world by storm… at least it’s taking Pinterest and other social media by storm. People are fascinated by the idea of selling everything and putting your life into 400 square feet – myself included. So… when I came across the blog Tiny House, Giant Journey, I knew I wanted […]
