HELLO MARCH!

  Welcome March! March is a good month.  Lot’s going on personally.  Weather (should be) getting milder if you’re in North America and with that, people in general will be smiling more. Don’t come for me, it’s true.  It is also women’s month! I’m saying women’s month yes but International Women’s Day 2024 is March…

  One week-ish in and how is 2024 going for you so far? I don’t believe in new year’s resolutions, and nothing is more cringe (to me) than “new year, new me”.  No judgement, just not my thing and it’s never been.  Goals? Yes.  Aspirations?  Yes.  Start-stop-continue?  Yes-yes-yes. And no, those things are not the…

ANOTHER TRIP AROUND THE SUN: GLOWING WITH STRENGTH & GRATITUDE

  A short one to ring in my next 365 days.  Wow, what a year it has been.  One filled with many successes and many lessons.  It didn’t come without a few heartaches and tears but all of that said, I’ve grown beyond measure both inside and out.  The gratitude is priceless.  I feel strong…

SLOWING DOWN IS PART OF THE RECIPE: MY POPULAR OPINION

  It has been a while since I’ve had the brain juices flow to write anything. That’s ok, I needed to slow down. I knew my brain and body needed a break after being in high social media gear since early November pushing Black Friday, Christmas and then trying to close off all orders before…

BLACK FRIDAY SAVINGS ARE LIVE @ STRONG IS MY BEAUTIFUL™

  Here we ARE!  Black Friday savings are everywhere. I can’t believe that it’s mid-November people.  Firstly, because the temperatures have been mild for the most part here in Toronto and secondly, the year is almost over and there is still so much to do!  I was in Costco on November 1st at around 10am. …

CONSISTENCY vs DISCIPLINE: You get what you give, period!

  I’ve been preaching (and practicing) consistency and discipline for years and I’m here again to remind the collective “US” that you don’t get to complain about results you didn’t get for the work or effort you didn’t put in.  You don’t get to do that.  No! What sparked this Ted Talk?  A recent interaction…

She Believed She Could And So She Did: International All Female Boxing Tournament

  “She can box!” It’s all I ever wanted to showcase, to prove or display.  It’s true.  Showing that I, a grown woman in my late-thirties when I started and now 51 – can box.  Not a brawl or a scrap but a clean, technical boxing match. I checked that box 14 times with this…
