What if I told you that you that you could manage your weight and NEVER have to “DIET” again? That you don’t have to count calories, starve yourself, or eat funny-tasting shakes and bars. You don’t have to suffer from the consequences of yo-yo dieting. Would you believe me? With all […]
I am not a huge fan of a lot of kitchen gadgets, they take up space and create clutter. I don’t like that. So, I am choosy about what I have in my kitchen, and my home for that matter. That being said there are many kitchen gadgets that make […]
On the other side of fear, what could you be missing? This past week we took a long weekend to explore our own province. We’ve always loved taking a day trip here and there. A couple of years ago we took the leap and invested in a camper so that […]

Have you set your goals for the New Year, your resolutions? Have you already started to feel yourself slide back into old habits? Maybe finding your self striving for perfection, and having an all or nothing attitude? Or simply faltering on embracing new habits that you KNOW are going to […]

Start Journaling, here’s why… This time of year tends to have us reflecting on the past year and what we have done. Sometimes it can leave us feeling like we missed the mark. We had things we wanted to do. Not seeing the results we anticipated can have us forget […]
Me time without guilt. Yes, you read that right! As we enter the Holiday Season we find ourselves getting busier, and busier, and busier… There is a lot to be done, and it will all happen. Somehow. We tend to push ourselves to the side as we plan what we […]
Everyone has unique talents and strengths. Whether we’ve discovered and actively developed them is the real question!
