It’s HERE! 🎉 I started thinking, what if you told me you were super cautious about the idea of changing your relationship with your body, but kinda curious what a life of self-acceptance could offer you, what would I say? I started writing my answer, and once I couldn’t stop. The FREE Body Acceptance Series […]

It scared me that I could see myself staying in the same place, strength-wise, for the next thirty years plus years. I started 2023 unable to jog, jump, lunge, or squat, after spending the back-half of 2022 recovering from a major knee injury. Add in a complex relationship with body image, restrictive dieting, and exercise, […]

The Body Image Story continues today with Part 5 where I’m diving into a complicated history with clothing. I talk about the challenges of shopping for a larger body, the fear of having tags show, crying in the bathroom at age 12 trying on bathing suits, the triple layered tank tops that were tough to […]

I wish I remember where I picked up this quote, but these words were everything I held onto while I was in the depth of recovery: “The trees in Winter are bare, but they are not dead.Spring can come in an instant.” Spring has sprung, in a sense, and it has brought such a new […]

This is almost a part two to the previous episode, where I shared the curveball story of my knee injury a few months ago. Since then, it’s been a rollercoaster of ups and downs, all the while waiting for “normal me” to knock on my door and tell me she’s taking over. Enter the realization: […]

Can’t a girl roll down a hill on a beautiful sunny day without rupturing a tendon in her knee?! The answer is no. Apparently the tendon had to GTFO and my Summer had to fold in on itself sending a major curveball through everything in my life that I thought I could control. Curveball is […]

I went back and forth a hundred times about posting this fairly short episode today, after having such a profound experience this morning  It is the epitome of first world problems. And it’s likely going to be a difficult listen for those with a different view on the mask mandates lifting here in Canada. I […]

The Body Image Story continues today with Part 4 where I’m talking about my resistance to the concept of body acceptance. I talk about mourning past and future versions of me, redefining what health means to me, re-emerging after the pandemic in a bigger body, and how I’m only now starting to find out what […]

In this episode I share some of the big takeaways from spending 4.5 hours in a psychedelic mushroom trip, and how the experience changed my life in a profound way. It’s a very candid and honest retelling of some of the abstract things I saw and realized. (I even read some of the words I […]

Are you here because you want to hear about how I took shrooms in a yurt? It’s just one part of a muuuuch larger story, and it starts here.  In this episode I’m opening up about my search for outside the box tools to “seal in” my journey towards self-love from the inside out. (If […]

**Trigger warning for this episode: mentions of dieting, weight loss, disordered eating, calorie restriction, exercise addiction, and fat phobia** In the first two parts of this series, I shared my story of collecting thoughts, beliefs, and experiences that were centered around an obsession to find myself in a smaller body. In part three, I’m opening […]

**Trigger warning for this episode: mentions of dieting, weight loss, disordered eating, calorie restriction, exercise addiction, and fat phobia** Gaining weight, losing weight, starting a business, getting married, having children… the next part of the story has its ups and downs, and it’ll take you up to the point where I realized I was ready […]

**Trigger warning for this episode: mentions of dieting, weight loss, disordered eating, calorie restriction, exercise addiction, and fat phobia**  In March of 2020, I broke up with diet culture once and for all. I was coming off of a 15 year obsession with restrictive dieting, although I didn’t see it like that at the time. […]

Took a break, did a ton of work on myself, and lived to tell the tale. Here’s what’s been going on behind the scenes for the last few weeks, while I worked to reframe some old thought patterns that are no longer in service of the life and business I’m trying to build.  LISTEN ON […]

Come for the tips on establishing a personal development routine, stay for the stream-of-consciousness ramble about sleazy sales tactics, minimalism, and Canadian tiktokkers. I’m elaborating on the “weekly intention” that I’ve talked about in previous episodes but never in depth. From how I fit it into my calendar, to the types of questions I ask […]
