"Earlier this year I had ended a long-term relationship, left a job I had been at for several years, was tentatively trying out living in Vancouver. I knew that I wanted a change in life but was extremely unsure about every aspect of my life. I felt anxious about the future, was constantly re-visiting the past, couldn't make a decision, and was struggling with my self-worth. I also felt very depressed. I had tried seeing […]

Sunday Funday kayaking along the Indian Arm with my 2 best friends! <3 It's a breathtaking place to be, surrounded by majestic mountains, with so many secluded beaches and islands. Great picnic spots, and beautiful trails to walk along. A perfect for a romantic day trip with your sweetie (or anyone, really!)  😀 Here's a couple of videos of our trip: Tweet Share this:Facebook

Throughout the history of the world, there have been leaders and followers. Viewed through the lens of history, some of these leaders have been truly awful, yet they still managed to accrue followers. Have you ever stopped to examine this phenomenon and wonder why that's true? Why even the worst of leaders seem to always gather around them a group of followers?

Why is it bad to procrastinate? Put simply --it really impacts our motivation and gives us permission to NOT take action. To put this in perspective then, at some point in our life, everyone indulges in procrastination a little bit. I’m guilty of it too once in a while!

1. Brew their own coffee at home instead of spending approximately half their paycheck on Starbucks every day. You do not want to do the math on how much you could potentially spend in a year buying coffee every day. That's a harrowing figure. 2. Eat a (relatively healthy) breakfast that's more substantial than a Lara Bar they found at the bottom of their purse. That granola bar is gonna keep you full for what? […]

        No matter what your age, your race or your past experiences, there are a lot of things --both psychological or physical, that can cause you to feel insecure: • you’re in an unfulfilling relationship or you feel unloved in your relationship • you’re working your ass off for a boss that doesn’t appreciate your hard work • you don’t know your strengths and gifts, and you’re not sure what your life’s purpose is • you’ve […]

    You’re not alone. It's very common for women to be insecure, and there are many reasons why women are insecure and lack confidence.           When coaching my clients, these are the 7 most common insecurities that I help them overcome: 1. being bullied or undermined as a child 2. being criticized by others 3. constantly comparing yourself to others 4. not being aware of and controlling your negative thoughts 5. having negative […]

Spring in Vancouver is so pretty, but this year it was an absolutely beautiful last week of Winter. Super sunny blue skies and 15C ! WOW! 🙂 A perfect day to rollerblade around the Vancouver Seawall with DeeOgee. We stopped and picked up our favourite Vietnamese "banh-mi" sub/baguette from the BEST place in Vancouver. Baoguette Vietnamese Bistro at English Bay. SOO yummy! 😀 The daffodils were out in full bloom and the lush green grass was a great spot […]

Theresa Kachindamoto, the senior chief in the Dedza District of Central Malawi, wields power over close to 900,000 people… and she’s not afraid to use her authority to help the women and girls in her district. In the past three years, she has annulled more than 850 child marriages, sent hundreds of young women back to school to continue their education, and made strides to abolish cleansing rituals that require girls as young as seven […]
