Sharing this to keep everyone I know and love safe.
If ever you are in a situation that you need help to get out of use this sign - whether in a car, or walking down the street - it is a subtle movement that isn't likely to be detected by the person you are with.
Just had an incident when I saw this, from the back window of the car in front of us, we followed, noted the license plate number and had 911 dilled, thankfully it just turned out to be a young one who didn't realize what she was doing.
Stay informed, stay safe, friends đ
â¨Please share with any and everyone you care about đ

â¨PROUD AUNTIE MOMENT â¨
If you love learning, laughing, and feeling lit up by real conversations with real peopleâthen you need to check out what my incredible niece, has just launched!
Brains On Tap is officially on LinkedIn đťđ§ (as well as here on IG over at ) and I could not be more proud of the magic sheâs creating. It's like TED Talk brilliance meets pub night funâand Iâm here for it!
Sheâs building something fresh, fun, and deeply needed: a space where learning doesnât feel like a lecture, but like community. Curiosity, storytelling, connection⌠and maybe a pint or two. YES PLEASE.
Follow along on this amazing journeyâbecause I absolutely will be, and Iâm so looking forward to attending one of these events myself. đ
Letâs raise a glass to new ways of learning, growing, and showing up as our wonderfully nerdy, curious selves. đť

"Age is just a number, and agelessness means not buying into the idea that a number determines everything from your state of health to your attractiveness to your value."
~Christiane Northrup
đ Today, I celebrate another trip around the sun, entering a new decade ⨠- though if you ask me, age is just a number, and I refuse to let it define me!
I do not feel my age. I do not look my age.
I simply live, embracing the beauty, love, and magic in every moment. â¨
Life has given me so many gifts - an incredible man, who challenges me to be the best version of myself, cherished memories, amazing friends, the presence of guardian angels who have undoubtedly saved me more than once, and the strength to navigate loss. Through it all, I have learned that gratitude is my anchor, meditation is my peace, and nourishing my body and soul is my power.
I am a recovering people-pleaser, who put everyone else's needs and wants ahead of mine. And through much introspection, over these past nearly 7 years, and getting to know ME all over again, I now recognize and embrace that I am strong, powerful, and beautiful, and that my thoughts create my reality.
Every day, I choose light over darkness, love over fear, and presence over the ticking clock. As the saying goes: "Do not regret growing older. It is a privilege denied to many." â Unknown
So here I am, another year wiser, stronger, and still looking fabulous. đ If birthdays have taught me anything, itâs that cake is totally a health food if you believe hard enough. đâ¨
Cheers to life, love, laughter, and another year of living fully, and finding the magic in every moment! đĽđ
â¨May you always remember to leave a little of your sunshine wherever you may go â¨

⨠Thank you to Enlightened Light Workers over on FB for this gem of a post â¨
The isolated family memberâthe one who often feels out of place, misunderstood, or disconnectedâis usually the one who is truly awake. Theyâre the ones who see beyond the surface, questioning the norms, breaking generational patterns, and challenging what others simply accept.
This isnât a role they choose lightly; itâs often thrust upon them through a combination of awareness and inner strength. While others might cling to old ways out of comfort or fear, the isolated one dares to step outside the confines of inherited beliefs, even if it means walking a lonely path. They see the dysfunction others ignore, the unspoken truths others suppress, and the cycles that must be broken for growth to take place.
But with awareness comes a heavy weight. The isolated one often carries the burden of understanding, navigating the tension between love for their family and the recognition of what must change. Theyâre labeled as âdifficult,â âdifferent,â or ârebellious,â not because they are any of those things, but because they refuse to conform to dynamics that no longer serve anyone.
Yet, their isolation is a sign of strength, not weakness. Itâs the proof of their courage to be the catalyst for transformation, even when the cost is high. They are the ones who pave the way for healingânot just for themselves, but for the generations to come.
If youâre the isolated one, know this: your journey may feel lonely, but itâs a powerful testament to your resilience and vision. Youâre not lost; youâre leading the way.
What do you think is the greatest challengeâand rewardâof being the âawakeâ one in your family?

You may say I am a dreamer, not I'm not the only one....
Take a moment to read through this gem - mycelium is amazing â¨
May we live this way each and every day đ
Much appreciation for Teri Young for sharing this beautiful message đ
"Are you even aware of what mycelium truly is? Itâs not just some underground fungi â itâs the unsung hero of ecosystems, operating under our feet like a clandestine internet. This extraordinary network, when it forms its magical bond with plant roots, enables an exchange of nutrients, water, and vital information among various plants. Plants arenât just static; through mycelium, they are in constant communication, sharing resources and sounding alarms when threats arise.
Picture this: a tree gets hacked down and the mycelium doesnât just sit there. No, it goes into action, alerting nearby trees of the calamity. In a remarkable display of solidarity, those trees rally together, redirecting nutrients and water to the dying stump in a desperate bid to keep it alive. This intricate dance of interdependence sustains the entire forest, turning each tree into a crucial player in a thriving ecosystem.
Now, when we envision a human society wired like mycelium, itâs a game changer. Imagine everyone actually tuned in to each otherâs struggles and needs. In times of crisis, instead of selfishness, there would be rapid collective action, ensuring no one is sidelined to suffer in silence. Fair distribution of resources would reign supreme, igniting a fierce sense of community and support.
This utopia would breed a culture of empathy and cooperation. Just like mycelium nurtures and protects the forest, a human interconnectedness could guarantee each individualâs survival and prosperity. Weâd foster an environment where solidarity is woven into the fabric of societyâtaking care of one another would be second nature, as natural as the processes that sustain a thriving forest.
If only humanity could wake up and embrace such a transformative system! The world could transform into a realm where compassion, support, and solidarity are as fundamental as the mycelium threads binding the forest together."

On what would be your 71st birthday, Mom, I remember you, and especially all the years you took the time to make MY birthday special, no matter the geographical distance â¤ď¸
It is difficult to believe that you have been gone for 8 years and 1 month now.
It feels like both only a moment ago, yet a lifetime since I held your hand as you took your last breath - in the same city where I took my first â¤ď¸
I am sending you beautiful birthday wishes, Mom and I know that you are taking care of us with our many other angels. â¤ď¸
(Also, as per the song, Mom, you gave me my name and the colour of your eyes, and I see your face when I look at mine, thank you â¤ď¸)

They say the journey of 1000 miles begins with a single step. That single step for me happened over a decade and a half ago when I had been on cholesterol-lowering medication for a couple of years; following in the footsteps of my mother, sister, and other family members. Thinking, as they all did, that it âran in the familyâ, and that I was sentenced to a life of taking medication.
Through a slight adjustment in MY diet, and dropping about 20 pounds, I was able to be taken off the medication. It was at that moment that I realized just how much impact making the right food choices had on my overall health!
I became very interested in how diet affects health and began listening to my body, pinpointing which foods did not agree with me.
Then, through a series of life events that completely changed the trajectory of my 20-year banking career; I was presented with the opportunity to return to school. My own journey to improving MY health lead me to discover the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition where I obtained my Registered Holistic nutritionist designation.
And with that designation, I have been pursuing my passion to share with the world the absolute power that we have over our own health. How our diet, lifestyle and mindset all shape our overall health and how simple changes can have an impact on our health!
In more recent years, through another series of difficult personal circumstances I found myself once again looking to my diet for support, and have found that following a plant-based, whole foods diet (aka way of eating) has made a tremendous difference in how I feel and look, and completely changed my life!
