Keep On Fighting

Just returned from the Annual General Meeting of Cystic Fibrosis Canada and once again I am humbled beyond belief. The energy of a group of people all there for the same reason is tangible… Everywhere I turned I met so many examples of leadership – I was inspired by the commitment and dedication to this … Continue reading »

It IS on My Mat

It IS on My Mat

Just got back from a very refreshing inspiring trip to Mexico which left me with some time to myself to re-assess and re-promise some things to myself. One, very important thing was to commit to a daily yoga practice and thus far I have succeeded. Between at home and some studio classes I have been … Continue reading »

Painful Conclusions

Painful Conclusions

Still in recovery mode after The Princess Ball. Trying to take it all in. Trying to decide how to improve what needed improving. How to resolve what went wrong.

5 Rules For My Daughters

1.  Guard your heart… but not so much that no one ever sees it.  This is a tricky one… it’s so easy to give your heart away in a moment of passion and bliss… but go ahead  and give it… just don’t cut the strings… keep it close to you – only you can honour … Continue reading »

I Have Enough

I Have Enough

Really the title says it all… enough, enough, enough.  What is enough? I think when you change your definition of this everything falls into place… We watch a world of indulgence and gluttony everyday unfold in the form of celebrity and in the name of fame… And someone, somewhere, makes us think that we might … Continue reading »
