Whether you celebrate Valentine’s Day, Galentine’s Day, or Palentine’s Day, it’s a great reminder to appreciate the people who matter most in our lives. Whether that looks like a date night, time with friends, or simply sharing a good meal and some laughter, taking time to connect is always worthwhile. In the end, love and connection come in many forms—and they all matter.

Your relationship with yourself is one of the most important relationships you’ll ever have. As Valentine’s Day approaches, remember to offer yourself the same care, kindness, and appreciation you give others. Partnered or not, you’re worthy of a little sweetness.

Today is National Pizza Day—a perfect excuse to celebrate one of the world’s most beloved dishes! 🍕 After a day of mountain bike riding, my friends and I love heading to one of our favourite restaurants in the Crowsnest Pass to enjoy their wood-fired pizzas.

Are you team pineapple on pizza? Because I am! 🙋‍♀️🍍
Today, treat yourself to a slice (or two) of your favourite flavour.

February is International Friendship Month—a time to celebrate and strengthen the friendships that bring meaning, support, and joy to our lives. Strong social connections are not just nice to have; they are essential for our mental and emotional well-being. Meaningful friendships can reduce stress, protect against loneliness and depression, and help us feel seen, understood, and supported during life’s challenges. This month, make time for meaningful connection. A small reach-out can make a big difference. 💛

The world can feel heavy at times- maybe it feels especially heavy right now. Remember that you are strong and resilient. Consider turning off the TV, putting your phone down, and stepping outside for some fresh air to ground yourself and move your body. Happy Friday 🤍

Today is National Coffee Break Day, a gentle reminder that intentional pauses can support our mental well-being and help us reconnect with the present moment.
I invite you to take a mindful coffee break today. With your drink of choice (coffee or tea), take a few moments to engage your senses:
• What do you notice as you look at your cup?
• What scents rise as you pause to breathe?
• What do you taste? (Careful—it’s hot.)
• What do you feel, both in your hands and in your body?

Use this moment to pause, settle, and reset. Or perhaps take the opportunity to schedule a coffee date with someone.

Today is Winnie the Pooh day; the day A.A. Milne (author of Winnie the Pooh) was born. Pooh reminds us to stay connected to our inner child — the part of us that learns through play, curiosity, and joy.
Slowing down, being silly, and enjoying simple moments is healing.

Today’s invitation:
✨ Let yourself play.

Happy Winnie the Pooh Day 💛🍯

I love this quote by Bill Watterson—it's a gentle reminder that it's okay to not be okay. Letting ourselves sit with whatever we're feeling, even a bad mood, without judgment, is actually healthy. And honestly… cold, grey winter days are the perfect excuse to curl up under a cozy blanket with a good book or movie.

January is 'Walk Your Dog' Month. You don’t need a dog to benefit—stepping outside, moving your body, and getting some fresh air can be a simple yet powerful way to support your mental health. This week, see if you can take a short walk and notice how your mood or energy shifts afterward.

As we settle back into structure and routine, this is your gentle reminder to return to your word of the year.

You chose it for a reason.
Not as a rule to follow, but as an anchor to come back to when life feels busy, loud, or rushed. How might your word support you this week?

There’s no need to be perfect—just intentional. One word. One moment at a time.

Wishing you a New Year filled with self-compassion, healthy boundaries, and mindful moments of calm. May 2026 bring you closer to the version of yourself you’re becoming.
