At the beginning of this year, I set an intention and picked a word to guide my year. Create. I was going to create more this year and boy was I excited about it. Off the heels of my exciting YouTube video that hit 50K views, I was determined to make this the year I […]

As we kick off 2022, I’m not one to typically set New Year’s resolutions, especially because I have my annual birthday bucket list. But this year, I wanted to take advantage of the fresh start and I’m feeling particularly energized and inspired. So instead of a resolution, we’re setting an intention for this upcoming year […]

Every so often you meet a person who has a significant impact on your life. For me, one of these people is my old colleague and friend Tyler. He gave me my first job as a graphic design intern in my final year of college, which continued onto my first real job as a graphic […]

Dinner is hard guys – especially when you’re not a planning person like I am not. Planning meals, going to the grocery store, figuring out how to take the ingredients in my food and turn them into a dinner – it was exhausting. Enter Good Food. Good Food is a meal kit delivery service here […]

When I was younger, I spent a great deal of time hanging around the hockey arenas at the local community centre. This place was great, so much to do. There was even a Little Rock climbing arena in it. Every so often my mom would splurge and take us. I remember LOVING it. Fondly remembering […]

I’ve been in Alberta for five winters now. I moved out here at the beginning of December. It was met with endless commentary of how silly I was to move out west during the frigid Edmonton winters. What I’ve learned since being here though, is that Winter in Alberta is equal to cottage country in […]

Complete a whole 90 – in other words, eat whole30 for 90 days. It was an ambitious thing to put on my 29 x 30 list, but I was convinced I could do it. I also knew that whole 30 tends to be the only eating plan that actually helps me control my weight. Here’s […]

10 things I learned from 90 days of whole30

The front cover of the whole30 book I used to follow my whole 90. It features a deep pan with a red coloured soup filled with vegetables.

This past weekend we headed off to Osoyoos for my sister’s super epic 30th birthday finale. On our last night, we decided to flick the switch on the patio lights and look up at the stars. To say it was spectacular might not fully capture how incredibly vast the stars looked that night. It just […]

If you’re looking for an easy breakfast option for whole30, look no further! At the beginning of the year, I made a gutsy goal to try to do whole30 again, but this time for 90 days. For me, having restrictions on what is allowed keeps me healthy. Otherwise, I have absolutely zero self-restraint. A few […]

Iceland is easily one of my most favourite countries I have visited. Not only was it my first solo trip, I also ambitiously decided to travel around Iceland’s entire ring road in just 4 days. While I would definitely recommend additional days, if you don’t have them it’s still worth the adventure to cram it […]

Back in my college days, shortly after I had broken up with my boyfriend at the time, I found myself without a car and needing to get to work. And while I didn’t have a bike that I could ride to work at the time, I did have my rollerblades. Thankfully, too, I lived along […]
