I have a hard time observing the National Day of #TruthandReconciliation, not because of what it signifies, but because most people observe it as a holiday.

Here's what you can do to become an ally in observing #NDTR.

Some people love the fall? You lust to fulfill your pumpkin spice latte dreams...When it comes to the end of summer, I only see death and dying. I dread that winter is coming!

It seems like everyone we know has a young adult starting their #postsecondary education so, I’ve compiled a list of practical things you need as you start #university.

I’ve heard losing your culture is comparable to a soul wound. Like I mentioned previously, I felt alone in a world without a place to belong. However, that changed today.

It’s a good day to be Métis!

I have always hated cleaning! Not disliked, HATED! However, I found that my mental health is so much better when my house is organized and clean. Tidy home, tidy mind.

I've simplified this task over the years.

Little did I know that coming out of my shell would be the biggest challenge of surviving sepsis...

I had lost my bad bitch energy, but I think I got it back!

What Are You Using On Your Skin?

Now that I leave my house, I get asked this quite a bit. Honestly, I’m a basic Betty, but I’ll share some things that I have found to be helpful in fighting gravity.

Let's talk about the grand climacteric; #menopause! Why is this change that every woman eventually goes through shrouded in shame?

Are you or someone you know on #Disability benefits? They are so hard to get & aren't really sustainable when you do.

In this week's #blogpost, I talk about CPP Disability, BC Disability Assistance & Extended Healthcare Benefits.

Our Niece just graduated highschool & is now getting ready for her #Prom. I used to be a #hairdresser so she asked me to do her hair. This was our trial run. 😪🥰❤️

I started this blog at the beginning of 2025 because I wanted to share my #livedexperience with surviving #sepsis 3 times.

I talk about anything & everything: #recovery #rehabilitation #Fitness #musthaves #sex #relationships #marriage #caregiver
