How did you meet your partner?
Here's our story...
Thank goodness for the growing awareness surrounding mental health. Had I had access to resources during my parents divorce, it might have helped in big ways. Still, I'm grateful for the tools I've learned about and implemented for myself now. What tools do you access when you experience anxiety?
Music began to be a massive part of my life really early on. I could write a soundtrack to my life, full of nostalgia, heartache, ups and downs, all the emotions - with songs that remind me of those times, usually because they happened to be part of my life at that time, whether they were new on the radio, whether someone was showing them to me just to share how they felt because of it, whether I was performing these songs... still, music is present in my daily life. It can have so many purposes, so many facets and methods of connection. How do you connect with music?
Hi everyone, in this episode I'm sharing about how a friend asking me to do a marathon with her has kick-started my motivation with fitness again - but also, how often do you feel set back like me?! Sleep deprivation is the number one thing that sets me back... can you relate?!
This is a solo episode wherein I list as many surprising things I experienced during and after pregnancy. Might be a little bit of over-sharing, but hey, that's how we learn!
In this episode, my special guest is a yoga instructor and mother of two. We discuss the physical, mental, and emotional benefits of incorporating yoga and mindfulness practices into daily life, with lovely tips on how to start!
In this episode we speak with a special guest about the Mindfulness and Well-being classes she teaches for adults, Forest School for children, and a variety of ways that we can reconnect with nature and, ultimately, ourselves.
I am a school teacher, piano teacher, and have taught music classes and coached sports over many years. In this episode, I read my final essay I wrote in university just a few years back while completing my Bachelor's degree with a double minor in education. I hope it provides some insight into what school has the potential to be and the experience we hope our children have.
We talk about the benefits and challenges of returning to work at a company after having children.
We discuss the first meeting of a pet and a new child, what to consider even before getting a pet, and how to facilitate the communication between animals and children.
Special guest Amelia discusses tips that help facilitate a dialogue surrounding food with your children and create a happy relationship with food for everyone.
Special guest Lauren discusses the ups and downs about returning to work after having a child, when you're self-employed and working from home.
In this episode I share a brief story of my journey thru motherhood so far. I moved across the world midway thru my first pregnancy - this tells a little about before and after that!
