As 2025 comes to a close, we wanted to pause and reflect, not just on what we achieved, but on what shaped us.

This year brought growth, challenge, learning, grief, pride, laughter, and a lot of quiet resilience. It reminded us that meaningful work is built by real humans, humans who are healing, stretching, learning, and showing up imperfectly, together.

Weโ€™re deeply grateful for our team, our clients, and the community that continues to grow alongside us.

Hereโ€™s to carrying the lessons forward with intention, compassion, and a little more softness. ๐Ÿค

I recently watched Oh What Fun and it hit close to home, especially during the holidays.

It wasnโ€™t the chaos or the comedy. It was the quiet exhaustion of carrying the invisible loadโ€ฆ the planning, remembering, organizing, and emotional managing that makes everything โ€œjust happen.โ€

Many women I work with feel depleted or invisible, even though they feel loved by their families, because the load often falls unevenly without anyone meaning it to.

Support isnโ€™t just helping, itโ€™s sharing the work. The best kind happens when partners step in to take responsibility, so the load isnโ€™t carried by one person.

Thereโ€™s another piece we donโ€™t often talk about. Moms have to loosen their grip, making space for things to be done differently. Over time, holding on too tightly can make partners feel like their efforts arenโ€™t enough.

I know this personally. Iโ€™m still learning to step back, trust that last-minute shopping or different choices still count, and remind myself itโ€™s not about cutting corners, itโ€™s ownership. My partner does things differently than I would, and thatโ€™s okay.

One thing Iโ€™ve noticed is that when I loosen my expectations, his efforts land differently. I get more space. More sleep. More ease. I actually see the ways he shows up to partnership. More room to enjoy the season instead of managing it all.

This season, what might shift if care, planning, and responsibility were truly shared?

We often talk about how women carry the invisible load of the holidays. And I see so many messages encouraging women to let go, rest more, and do less. That matters. Women deserve rest.

But hereโ€™s the fuller picture.

She canโ€™t loosen her grip unless she knows someone else is there to take hold.

Real relief doesnโ€™t come from being told to โ€œrest moreโ€ or โ€œlet things go.โ€ It comes when partners and loved ones step in, not to help, but to take ownership.

Ownership looks like planning, packing, remembering, organizing, and initiating without being asked. It looks like mental labour being shared, not delegated.

Because when the load is truly shared, rest becomes possible.

A gentler holiday isnโ€™t something women have to figure out alone. Itโ€™s something we create together.

Weโ€™re so excited to welcome Stephanie Orr, MCP, Canadian Certified Counsellor (she/her) to our team ๐Ÿค

Stephanie supports deep-feeling individuals who are ready to understand themselves more clearly, soothe their nervous systems, and quiet the inner-critic thatโ€™s been running the show for too long. She also works with couples who want to communicate more openly, break old patterns, and rebuild connection that feels supportive and nourishing.

Her style is warm, intuitive, and steady โ€” blending mind-body awareness, gentle curiosity, and practical tools to make even the toughest emotions feel a little more manageable.

Stephanie is currently accepting new clients for individual and couples therapy (virtual & in-person). We canโ€™t wait for you to meet her and experience the grounding presence she brings to the therapy room.

โœจ Welcome to the team, Stephanie. Weโ€™re so grateful to have you here.

Ever wonder what your therapist is like outside the therapy room?

Weโ€™re humans first โ€” with hobbies, quirks, cozy rituals, and things that bring us joy. โ˜•

Have you ever found yourself thinkingโ€ฆ
Am I too clingy? Not affectionate enough?
Do I need space or am I pushing my partner away?

For many millennial couples, intimacy can feel confusing. You might notice:

\-You avoid bringing up your needs because you donโ€™t want to โ€œrock the boat.โ€

\-You feel guilty for wanting time alone, even though you love your partner.

\-You argue over small things that actually reflect deeper needs for connection or independence.

\-You notice patterns from past relationships or family messages creeping into your current one.

Millennials often grew up with mixed messages:
โœจ โ€œBe independent.โ€
โœจ โ€œDonโ€™t be too emotional.โ€
โœจ โ€œDonโ€™t be too needy.โ€
โœจ โ€œMake the relationship work โ€” no matter what.โ€

Itโ€™s no wonder balancing closeness and independence feels like a tightrope. Enter our upcoming workshop:

๐Ÿ’› Victoria Silverโ€™s Community Giving Workshop:
Me, You, Us: Cultivating Closeness while Honouring Independence in Relationships
๐Ÿ“… November 25, 2025

This is your chance to:
โœจ Understand why these patterns show up in your relationships
โœจ Learn how to communicate your needs around closeness and independence without guilt
โœจ Navigate differences with your partner โ€” especially as your needs shift over time

Youโ€™ll leave with tools to reconnect with what you actually want in your relationships โ€” and create intimacy that feels grounded, mutual, and authentic.

Because the truth is, healthy relationships donโ€™t just happen. Theyโ€™re learned.

We talk so much about being kind to others,
but what about being kind to the parts of you that feel too heavy,
too tired,
or too much?

For so many women, therapy is the first place they truly _experience_ that kind of kindness โ€”
the kind that doesnโ€™t ask you to shrink,
fix,
or explain yourself.

Therapy moments that feel like a hug ๐Ÿค
The ones where your shoulders finally drop and you hearโ€”
๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œYou donโ€™t have to carry that alone.โ€
๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œYouโ€™re allowed to take up space.โ€
๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œYou did what you had to do to survive.โ€
๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œItโ€™s safe to rest now.โ€

Because sometimes the most powerful act of kindness isnโ€™t something you giveโ€”
itโ€™s finally allowing yourself to _receive_ care.

On , letโ€™s remember:
kindness to others begins with gentleness toward ourselves.

๐Ÿค Your turn: Whatโ€™s one small way youโ€™re showing yourself kindness this week?
Share it below โ€” your words might remind another woman that sheโ€™s not alone.
