Cheeky&Candid with Sascha

Darcy & Jer - thank you for the Moncton show this past weekend! 🫶

Comedy shows are my thing - they fully capture my attention, but this one left my neurospicy brain feeling seen, calmer, and genuinely proud.

Because the reflection hit hard: so many kids (and adults) spend their lives getting “fixed” by environments that don’t fit them.

Bad at math? “Get a tutor.”
Can’t sit still? “Try harder.”
Too sensitive? “Toughen up.”

But what if that kid isn’t broken, what if they’re the next Van Gogh… and the world just hasn’t learned their language yet? What if strengthening their superpowers and invested in what they are great at, instead of the above.

As a parent, and as someone who’s led a healthcare company through the hardest seasons of the last five years, I found you both during the pandemic when I needed pure laughter after long days. And I didn’t realize back then how much your humour would become more than a laugh, it became a reset button. A reminder that laughter can mend more than we give it credit for.

You’ve reminded me, post after post, that “neurospicy” isn’t a flaw to manage, it’s a superpower to understand. That coping tricks + acceptance + safe spaces don’t just help our kids… they change the entire temperature of a home, a classroom, a workplace, a relationship.

Also… can we talk about how many CEOs are quietly neurospicy, the research is wild? 😅

The creativity. The pattern-spotting. The intensity. The hyperfocus. The “I will build a whole empire at 2am because I can’t stop thinking” energy.

So thank you @ and , for the laughs, for the truth, and for the reminder to stop asking our kids to be smaller so the room can be more comfortable.

Let them shine where they’re strong, and watch what confidence does. ✨

This year stretched me in ways I never expected. There were moments of real hardship, in my health, in my business, in my sense of self, all of which forced me to slow down, feel again, and finally listening closely to what truly matters.

Somewhere in the middle of it all, I found myself again. I reconnected with my core vision for Capture. When you've built something bigger than you could have ever pictured in the early days it sometimes feels like it's getting away from you. This year I got to reconnect not just what we build, but why we build it and see a team evolve beyond my wildest hopes.

After being quite sick, I found my way back to living, not just functioning. After years of searching I found me again. And I faced business challenges I never knew I was strong enough to survive and often in silence as you do in leadership, but I did. We did.

For that, I’m deeply grateful.

Twenty twenty six isn’t about chasing more.

It’s about staying true to what I’ve rediscovered because I'm better when I'm in this space.
Flourishing our teams who've invested their love and time into Capture and empowering each location and each crew.
Leading with clarity and heart.
Being fully present - in work, in life, and in the moments that matter most, while truly enjoying those closest to me. Those who feel like home.

Here’s to gratitude, growth and resilience, and choosing alignment over noise.

It may have taken over a decade, but the challenges 2026 brought forth built my confidence, the trust I hold in myself, and an incredible group of people I can't wait to go through 2026 alongside! xo S 🌊

Some people come into your life because of blood. Others because the universe wouldn’t have had it any other way. She was both. My grandmother, yes, but more than that, she was my person. My soulmate in the purest sense. If we weren’t family, we would’ve found each other anyway, I am sure of it.

She taught me that a book’s cover is bu****it, what matters is the story inside, and how to speed read let's be honest, she could out-read me anyday. She made me reach for an education because I was born into a time that gave me chances she never had. She showed me how to cook the best f&$*ing food, love without limits, and never settle for less than what I was capable of. She lived women's rights before they were rights. She was an entrepreneur before it was trendy. And my OCD, well, let's be honest that’s just one of the quirks I inherited along with her fire (I light a candle anytime I need to be reminded of her strength, today is no exception). My profession, from a physiotherapist trying my best to understand the chronic pain you lived in, to becoming an entrepreneur were fueled so much by your belief in who I was and could become.

The pain of losing her is still as sharp as it was two years ago. And I don’t think that will change. Grief isn't something you get over; it’s something you learn to carry. But damn, what I wouldn’t give for one more hug. One of those "I’ve got you" hugs that she had mastered in her years on this earth, the kind that made you feel like you could take on the world because she believed in you that much.

This week is one of the hardest of the year, and I know it always will be. But if she taught me anything, it’s that you don’t stop. You keep going, you keep building, you keep striving, and you never ever forget what is most important - your circle, your people, the one's that never waver and are the most candid with you. Because that’s what she did. And if I can be even a fraction of the force she was, I’ll have done something right.

Miss you every single day 🫶🏼.

Game face on 🏒

So many of us moms lose ourselves in the process of raising kids, being wives, and just staying busy. I lost track of myself when my kids were transitioning into school, COVID hit and shook everything at work, and the ripple effects kept going for years. Now, five years later, I’m trying to piece it all back together.

I’m making myself a priority again, beyond being a mom, a wife, and an entrepreneur; so I can show up as the best version of me. It starts with small, intentional steps towards the things we loved beyond our day to day. For the past 3 days (and the next 57), that means:
🏃‍♀️ 2km run every day
🍷 No alcohol (I’m mindful of family history and breaking cycles)
💪 my Jump rope routine 5 days a week

This is my promise to myself, my family, and my team. It’s time to rediscover who I am, outside of family and work. 🩵
