"Self regulation is really internalized co-regulation!!!!"

07/11/2025

Just as pain can ripple through generations, so can peace. Just as wounds can be passed down, so can wisdom.

The patterns we repeat shape our legacy — but so do the ones we break.

When we choose presence over avoidance, compassion over criticism, connection over control… we plant seeds our children will one day harvest.

This is how cycles shift.
This is how we become the ancestors they’ll thank, not recover from.
And this is how love becomes the legacy.

You get to decide what you will pass down.
Love sounds pretty good to me. ❤️

I have some news!

After a wonderful period of time running my practice out of my Waterdown location, I have made the (difficult) decision to move my office to Burlington and practicing out of a therapy collective called The Arterie.

🗓 As of August 1st, 2025 all in person sessions will be held at The Arterie
📍The Arterie - 384 Guelph Line, Burlington (15 minutes from Waterdown)

Please reach out if you have any questions regarding how we can support you during this move. My time at the Waterdown Village Chiropractic & Wellness Group has been positive, so this was not an easy decision, but I am very excited about this next step.

Parenting is a beautiful contradiction where we often feel two things at once. We call these "AND" moments.

These challenging moments pull us in all directions, feeling both messy and beautiful, hard and worth it all at the very same time…

And without an understanding of what an "AND" moment is, we are at risk of feeling confused and/or not enough.

Here is a poster you can print and hang to remind yourself to connect these thoughts that sometimes feel like contradictions with an "AND" instead. 🙂
