REDEFINE MOTHERHOOD 🧘‍♀️🌿🌙
Sharing my Holistic Journey of Life
Movement - Mobility - Mindfulness Hello beautiful humans!

I am Vanessa; Mother, Wife & Business Owner ✌

FROM A VERY YOUNG AGE I KNEW I WAS MEANT TO HELP OTHERS. IT WASN'T UNTIL I BECAME A MOTHER WHEN I REALIZED MY TRUE CALLING... TO ASSIST OTHER MOTHERS IN RECLAIMING THEIR CONFIDENCE AFTER PREGNANCY AND POSTPARTUM. With the holistic powers of mindful movement such as yoga & pilates, nourishing traditions such as nutrition, meditation, grounding, and spiritual development, we can facilitate awareness and growth within our body. For Mothers everywhere - This is your tribe, your village, your safe space. Together, we rise, we conquer, we REDEFINE MOTHERHOOD!

If you have the choice to move your body, just do it!

You will never regret moving your body, but you may regret NOT moving it 😜

This works out extra since my little one (who’s not so little anymore, he’s 7!) isn’t a big fan of me watching him anyways.

If you are in southern Alberta and you have kids, I highly recommend Raymond Martial Arts Academy

Not only are they the best family and the best business, but you also get the chance to move your body while your little ones learn and move as well!

OK y’all, totally obsessed with these products! I’m super pumped for my next order to come as I have some blush and bronzer, as well as some lip liners and their famous lip oil! Will keep you posted 😘

I know homeschooling isn’t for everyone, but if you ever have a chance to try it, I highly encourage that you do!

We enjoy relaxed mornings in our pajamas, a nice hot breakfast that we share together while we plan our day, my children get to grow up knowing their siblings a little better, and they get to learn based on their own needs and wants.

What a treat to be welcoming more light in the evenings!

You’re probably wondering why I have so many makeup brushes, considering I rarely ever wear makeup 😅

So before I got into yoga and fitness, I was an Esthetician for over 20 years, which meant makeup was a big part of my life! Not only did I wear makeup every day, and the whole 9 yards, I also offered makeup artistry as a service for many years 💄

About five years ago I started to get holistic, and that meant getting out of Esthetics as it no longer aligned with my personal values… if I wouldn’t put it on my own skin, I wasn’t going to put it on yours!

Well, fast forward to this week, I’d been on the hunt for some natural makeup brands for a while now, and a few days ago two different companies magically appeared in my feed. I was drawn to them right away, I felt in line with their values, and I decided to give them a go.

So stay tuned for some before and after pics as I get in to make up again!

and are the companies I have purchased from! So… My makeup wearing mamas, what are your go-to brands? Doesn’t matter if they are natural or not, let me know in the comments!

Restorative Yoga - a gentle practice that supports your body with props while you completely let go of everything.

This practice is great for everyone, whether you are expecting, recovering, or just looking to try something new.

Pause. Connect. Align.

One thing I’ve done consistently (even if I’m feeling like I just want to hug the toilet) is my after dinner walk 🏃‍♀️

Why walk after a meal?

Walking for 10–30 minutes shortly after a meal boosts metabolism by helping muscles consume glucose for energy, which prevents sharp blood sugar spikes. This postprandialactivity reduces the workload on the pancreas, aids digestion, decreases fat storage, and increases overall caloric expenditure, supporting better metabolic health

I also walk for the fresh air, it helps my nausea, it gets the blood flowing, and I never regret it when I come home!

Plus… How can you not enjoy these SOAB nights ❤️

Guess who’s having another baby, and it’s not a food baby 🤪

Make sure to follow me over the next few months as I share my final pregnancy, some health hacks, classes & workshops for prenatal mothers, and so much more 💗

Staying active during your pregnancy can help your body and your mind in such positive ways as well as aiding in a much more relaxed labour and delivery 🙌

Hi, I’m Vanessa, a mother of three with a lifelong love of Yoga since a teen, and a passion for strength training in the last 15 years. My real fitness & healing journey started about 12 years ago when I lost over 100 pounds! It wasn’t until after children that I stepped up my game and discovered Pilates, which I’ve been teaching for over 2 years now, and the correlation with pelvic floor health after kids. I’ve also found Reiki and Meditation to be great additions on my healing journey, which lead me to become a Reiki Master and Sound Therapist. I am always expanding my knowledge and keeping my education up-to-date, which is why I am currently taking my personal training certification to assist you better with knowledge and skills!

My goal is to inspire others and build their confidence, on and off the mat, and let them know that anything is possible. Change doesn’t come through complacency, it comes through our own personal challenges and consistency. I want everyone to know that they are capable of feeling confident in their own body, not just physically, but emotionally AND mentally too.
