It really is quite incredible what can happen in one year. This time last year I was unemployed (my choice) and unsure what laid ahead of me. During that time I was going back and forth from a nervous restless energy to a I-deserve-time-off energy. Reading last November’s post I was not in a good place. Not many people have the […]

Managing Fear, Mastering Your Life
I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to speak at the Fearless Women’s Summit. This conference was brought to my attention by a couple friends and former colleagues. They figured I would be a good candidate speaking on the topic – fearlessness. Funny as I hadn’t really thought of myself that way but […]

The year 2018 will an empowering and interesting year for me, I can guarantee that! Why you ask? It is because I have made the deliberate choice to free up some of my time to do some self-analysis and self-work. Now why would I do that? I believe we all crave opportunities for personal and […]

Read moreYouth Suicide Prevention Can Start With You
I had just been part of something remarkable, powerful and even life changing. It was three months ago that, in absolute frustration with the number of youth suicides, I spouted out on Facebook that I was going to have a youth suicide prevention conference. The increase of suicide rates in the young First Nations population […]
Read moreYouth Suicide Prevention Needs Community Support
If you have put in even as little as five to ten minutes research on suicide you would see the rates are astonishing. Some countries have more suicides than others. There are also certain groups or categories of people who, due to their histories, support systems and socio-environmental factors, are at a higher risk for […]
Read moreWas That This Year? My Year In Review
This is generally the time where we evaluate the year that just passed and think about areas of improvement for the one ahead of us. Thinking about 2016 I found that I couldn’t remember if what I had done was this past year or the year before (or even the year before). My memories were […]
