It’s okay to sit and read a book and still have laundry waiting to be folded.

I see it.
I know it’s there.

And my brain isn’t running a perpetual to-do list about it.

For some people that might feel really difficult.

But for me, this was something I realized had become a pattern — a system my mind was running.

Once I recognized that, I was able to change it.
So now the laundry can wait.

Because this morning I’ve already created content, refined a value proposition, cleaned the bathroom, and done multiple loads of laundry.

And yes… it’s Thursday at 11:30 in the morning and I’m still in my pajamas.

And that’s okay.

Sometimes giving yourself permission to pause is exactly what allows you to move forward in a healthier way.

Do you love yourself?

I asked that question in an earlier video this morning.

And I’m going to be really honest.
I didn’t always love myself.
I knew I should.
I knew I had a really good life.
But deep down inside, I didn’t always feel that way.

So when I ask questions like:
Do you love yourself enough to eat?
Do you love yourself?

If your answer didn’t immediately come up as “of course”… that’s okay.

A lot of the time that quiet voice in the back of our mind isn’t actually who we are.

It’s old patterning.
Old beliefs.
Old systems we picked up through our experiences.

And the good news is that those patterns can change.

You get to choose.

You can rewire that voice.

And if that’s something you’re curious about exploring, I offer a free 20-minute call where we can talk about what’s going on and what it could look like to shift it.

The link to book a Key To Freedom call is in my bio.

Sometimes people tell me something that sounds like this:

“I know I’m lovable… but I don’t feel it.”

Yesterday I worked with a client in what was essentially an intensive session.

Normally the work we did would unfold over about six weeks, but we consolidated it into one day with several interventions happening one after another.

They came in saying something I hear quite often:

“I feel disconnected.”
“My brain, my emotions, my body… I know these things logically, but I don’t feel them inside.”

So the focus of the work yesterday was really about reconnecting those pieces.

We worked through several interventions designed to release emotional patterns, reset the nervous system, and integrate different parts of themselves.

Underneath all of it was one core theme: disconnection.

A lot of people talk about the mind and the body.
Some talk about the soul.

What we often forget is that there are actually several layers that make up our experience.

We have our physical body — the body we live in and take care of every day.

We have our emotional body — where emotions move through us. When emotions are repressed, they often show up physically.

We have what I call our creation body — the place where ideas begin to move into action. The neurons firing, the movement of creation.

We have our mental body — our thinking mind, both conscious and unconscious.

And we have what I often refer to as our energetic body — the energy around us. Some people call it their soul. Others simply call it energy.

As an integrated neuro-somatic practitioner, my work is about helping reconnect and integrate these parts.

Because when those pieces come back into alignment, something powerful happens.

What people know in their mind…
what they feel emotionally…
and what they experience in their body…
finally begin to connect.

And that’s when people often begin to feel like themselves again.

A friend asked me a question yesterday that stopped me in my tracks.

Sometimes the biggest insights come from simple conversations with other people.

Yesterday a friend said something to me that really landed.

I was telling her that I have this habit of not eating. Sometimes I get busy, get going with the day, maybe have something small in the morning… and before I know it the day is almost over.

There are always reasons.

Work. Momentum. Being focused on something else.
But we were talking about self-love and how we actually show that to ourselves.

And she asked me something that made me pause.

“Do you love yourself enough to eat?”

I had never thought about it that way.

Of course I love myself. But do I slow down enough to actually take care of myself in that moment?

Do I love myself enough to take the time to eat?
To exercise?
To be mindful of what I’m putting into my body?

And to be clear… I like a good burger just as much as anyone else. I enjoy food. That’s not the point.

The insight for me was realizing that making time
to eat is also an act of self-respect.

Those kinds of realizations might not mean much to anyone else.

But sometimes a small shift in perspective can change something simple in a really meaningful way.

And yesterday, that was mine.

03/11/2026

Yesterday I had a really great conversation with a friend about showing up.

I had put something out there… and no one has signed up.

And honestly, it kind of sucks. And I’m okay.

What the conversation reminded me of is something I try to live by: leading by example.

Sometimes that means showing up and saying, “I’m not okay today.”

And at the same time remembering that we also have the choice not to unpack everything publicly.

Both can be true.

We can be honest about where we are
without feeling like we have to explain every detail.

Showing up isn’t about being perfect.
It’s about being real.

Allowing yourself to feel all your emotions, learning from the experience, and continuing forward.

Every lesson is different.

For me, this one was simple.
I tried the thing.
I learned from it.
And I keep going.

Leading by example doesn’t mean having it all figured out.

Sometimes it just means being honest about where you are and continuing anyway.

Fear of failure or judgement is what keeps many people stuck.

Trying the thing is often the hardest part.

Yesterday I was asked multiple times where I got my sweatshirt. I have actually been asked multiple times or had strangers say thank you for the message I needed to read that. Where did you get it.

My answer up until yesterday was always.

I stopped into a Zehrs in Orillia on a road trip and after I picked up my snacks near the exit the Canadian Mental Health had a table with a bunch of apparel and sling bags.

In case you don't know me, Mental health is the reason I became an Intergrated Neurosomatic Practitioner (a Mind Body connection Practitioner)

I saw it and had to have it. I walked out with a sweatshirt, t-shirt (Be Kind To Your Mind) and a sling bag.

Side note: I was on a road trip to a ceremony where I took an oath to Guide, Heal, and Protect Humanity.

Talk about synchronicity...

So last night in the Superstore (here in Peterborough) I am checking out and telling my cashier the story (she asked) and another cashier (my favourite one) sees my sweatshirt and says. "Hey that's so cool. That's my sister's company"

I remember the first time I took this journey. It was so gentle and comforting, like being wrapped in a warm, cozy blanket.

I now understand why it’s often referred to as the Warm and Fuzzy Resource Regression.
In this guided experience you:

• choose a woman whose wisdom you admire
• enter a relaxed, reflective state
• step onto a timeline moment where you meet her
• ask a question that matters in your life right now
• receive insight, perspective, and lessons learned

Every person’s experience is different.

Behind the scenes, your mind is also integrating the positive qualities you admire in that person, making them more accessible to you moving forward.

But when people open their eyes, there is almost always a shift in clarity.

In honour of International Women’s Day, this experience is focused on connecting with the wisdom of women who came before us.

Sometimes the insight we need is already waiting for us.

Tomorrow at 7 PM EST, I'm guiding a small group through this process on Zoom.

If you're curious to experience it, details are here:

Imagine this for a moment.

You close your eyes and think of a woman whose life or courage has always inspired you.

Maybe she’s someone famous.
Maybe she’s someone from your own family.

Now imagine sitting across from her and asking one question.

Not about history.
About your life right now.
Your next step.

A challenge you’re navigating.
A decision you’re sitting with.

And then imagine listening to the wisdom that emerges.

This Wednesday I’m guiding a small Timeline Wisdom Experience where we explore exactly that.

A quiet space to reflect, connect with deeper insight, and access wisdom in a way that often surprises people.

📅 Wednesday evening (starts at 7pm) Zoom session

If this speaks to you, you can reserve a seat here:
