What you can’t see in this picture: me internally fangirling and trying to play it cool while learning from one of my cooking heroes.

Spoiler: I was not (and am not) cool.

— you are a girl's girl through and through … smart, ridiculously funny, casually dropping flour percentages like it’s gossip, debating which oven corner is secretly out to get us, and just an all-around incredible human to learn from.

Thank you for making recipes that are fun, and for helping me fix my ever splitting ganache in the span of 30 seconds.

Only a few days into the best little solo vacation with .au, and honestly? Highly recommend pretending you’re a chill, sophisticated traveler while actually geeking out over focaccia dough rising in the fridge.

Unbelievable.

Yesterday was a day of awe and love. Of grace and gumption. Of gratitude and momentum.

What I shared—and what 16 other incredible humans shared—is now in the hands of the TEDx editing team. I can’t wait for you to see it (soon!).

I spoke about an idea close to my heart: that wellness isn’t built solely on closing rings, grams of protein, or zone 2 cardio—it’s in the small, consistent things. The ripples you create every day that slowly shift your current until wellness becomes something lived and shared, not earned. It’s about people, environments, and laughter as much as—if not more than—the checkmarks in the boxes. And if you’ve ever felt like you just need to “try harder,” maybe we’re looking at the wrong things.

Yesterday wouldn’t have been possible without a whole lot of love and support:

💛 – There aren’t enough words. You were there through it all, and I’m endlessly grateful to do life with you.
💛 – Our team is something special. I love showing up with you for each other and our patients every day.
💛 & – You gave me the gift of believing I could do anything, while knowing I was already enough.
💛 Our tiny humans, E & C – your love was tucked in on stage (swipe for the friendship bracelets), and I can't wait for you to see what your stepmomma has done. You two make me a better human and I am in constant gratitude that you are part of my life.

To the fellow speakers—, , , , , , , Tash, , Don, , , , .awoyiga, .danella — you were a joy and an inspiration.

To , , and —thank you for showing up and for your trust. To - thank you for helping me figure out what to wear - you were one of the first calls and I am so grateful for your support.

And finally—to and the entire team—you created something powerful, and I’m deeply honoured to have been part of it.

What does it mean to be well?

Today, I get to share my answer.

Months of drafts.
Early morning edits.
Talking to myself on walks, in the shower, and between patient visits.

All leading to this moment.

It’s ready—ready to ripple out into the world with love, grace, momentum, and energy.

TEDxArgyleStreet… let’s do this. 💛

Big news: I’m stepping onto the TEDx stage 💥
And I’m bringing a message that’s been sitting in my bones for years.

On August 9, 2025, I’ll be speaking at in Halifax, under the theme Rooted in Resilience: Inspired by the Bluenoser Spirit — and I couldn’t feel more aligned.

My talk is called:
“Why Wellness Has Less To Do With Willpower Than You Think — How Community, Capacity, and Care Change Everything.”

Because here’s the thing —
Wellness was never supposed to be a solo pursuit. And burnout isn’t a sign you’re broken. It’s a signal that the systems holding you up… aren’t.

We’ve been surviving in silence. Trying to carry what was never meant to be carried alone. And this talk is about building something better — together.

I’m humbled. I’m ready. And I believe with my whole heart that this is an idea worth sharing — and a change worth creating.

Let’s go. 💥

Here's to the mommas, the aunties, the stepmommas and the bonus moms, the grandparents and nonnas, the Nana Marj's and the Momma Marge's, the caregivers, those who are hoping to be still, and those who love because they love.

Thank you for being the rock, showing the vulnerability and giving us all the chance to remind ourselves that we were always meant to walk this path with someone beside us.

Here's to every one of you who feels something today. The world is better with you in it, and remember, you are always enough 💛

One of my favourite things to search on Instagram is " "

Why?

I love seeing the little things that people pick up on that bring them joy, and it also helps to put my own brain in the mindset of actively choosing to look for the little things.

If you've ever heard me speak, you know I spend part of my presentations and workshops talking about deposits into our bank accounts and how things that take less than 30 seconds to complete should take up over 50% of the deposits you put in a day (that was a long sentence 😂). And this is one of the biggest takeaways I hear about.

So often, we think that achieving a state of grace, or a state of relative health is about these huge, big changes... when in all honesty, it's about the deposits of all of these little things that just add up and add up. These little things, they create Resiliency.

So. On this Sunday morning, I'm going to scroll down the Glimmer rabbit hole on Insta, and reminisce on this amazing outfit from our Engagement Session with a few months ago - definitely a memory that creates a little deposit for me!

How do you think about wellness?

It's not prescriptive - let me tell you that! There is no x + y = z equation to improving your health.

I challenged the educators at the National conference today to think about it like a bank account. Managing the deposits during whatever your season of life to balance through the withdraws. To think about the impact that small deposits have on your capacity to access your cornerstones to improve your resiliency to stress.

It was an honour to be here, friends. Thank you for having me, and thank you for creating the space for yourselves to add a few deposits to your "burger" to then create space to shift the systems that create this environment in the first place.

Here's to June!

Take up the space.
Laugh loud.
Embrace the chaos.
Find simplicity in the stillness.
Get comfortable being uncomfortable.
And choose grace over guilt as often as possible.

Reminders I took away from 48 hours with these humans.

More is possible, with the right help.

I believe that your health should work for you, not against you. I believe that each and every one of us has the ability to live the best possible version of ourselves. But sometimes we need a little bit of an extra hand. Sometimes we need a little pick-me-up. Sometimes we need to embrace optimization so that we can define our day with what means the most to us. You CAN have it all. I believe that, I live that, I breathe that. But I believe that having it all means living life by my own definitions. It means doing something because I want to, not because society believes I need to. It’s waking up in the morning feeling rested and excited for the day ahead. It’s about learning to not feel guilty (guilty!) the I need to take a day for me. Having it all doesn’t have to mean having the white picket fence family and the CEO job (though it can if that’s what you want). It can me having the job you love, girlfriends who have got your back , and adorable family, hanging out with people who feed your soul and lift you up. I believe that you can have it all because I believe you should be able to define what having it all means to you.

I believe that your health should work for you, not against you. I believe that those PMS days, the brain fog, the fatigue and the mood swings don’t have to happen. I believe in evidence-based, natural health care. I believe that you shouldn’t be treated just like everyone else. Because you’re not just like everyone else.
