My Wellness Story: 2021 vs 2022 | As Our Bodies Change So Do Our Needs

June Vibes: Here’s what’s new & for you!

  How was your first five months of 2022?  Did you or do you reflect on it to plan and push forward, or course correct?  Do you lay out your plans meticulously with check boxes or just have it in your head?  I think we all have a version that keeps us on track.  Me? …

January 2022: Crushing it? Or are you distracted by things you can’t control? Either way, just keep showing up!

  How are we all doing mid-January 2022?  Hanging in there or hanging on by a thread?  I’ve felt all the feels to date and if you’re in Ontario right now I hope that the current lockdown is not bringing you down.  I’ve been manifesting positive vibes that said 21-day restriction for gyms/restaurants is just…

Ring Talk Episode 5: The Comeback!

  This comeback story is not about coming back after a loss in the ring but more so after a victory post pandemic.  A victory that screams “I’m back” and ready to rumble!  This might be my version and sharing just one aspect of my life, but it’s for all of us.  We’ve all been…

‘Tis the season!

  What is the plan for this holiday season folks? For us, it will be like the rest of 2020 and just like everyone else, we won’t be doing anything like holiday seasons of the past.  This year is different from a work perspective too so yes, working for ourselves and still need to do…

Marriage: What’s the tea?

It’s our anniversary and don’t worry, this won’t be sappy mushy post.  Rest assured, the love is still as deep as the mushiest out there. So it begs the question:  Is there something to be said for being married this long?  Is there a secret or tea to spill?  December 6, 2020 we’re celebrating 23…

“Daddy, why is she only stopping us?” – Acacia Fabing at Canadian Tire, Etobicoke, ON

When my family is racially profiled, I take action. Earlier this year I vowed to no longer be silent and on Saturday November 14th when I got home around 2pm in the afternoon to very confused 8-year-old and pretty pissed off husband, I had to stand by my word. This story needs to be shared,…

September!

Summer is not quite over but fall is around the corner.   Back to school means back to regular routines.  Routines mean back to the grind and I’m all for it.  Tournaments and club shows here I come!   Training never stopped but it did lighten up somewhat or rather, I allowed myself to ease…

Dare to do you!

Each time I think I’ve got this “do you” bit, I realize that I have just scratched the surface.  Being me, doing me and accepting me.  While I strive to do so daily, I’ve come to realize that that there is more coming. As I continue to grow and as I get to know myself,…
