I’m a bit slow getting this posted, but hopefully there is still time for a few people to jump on this opportunity before summer is officially over! The Town of Middleton is offering free kayak and canoe rentals again this year! This is not a sponsored post and I have no affiliation with the Town […]
Practice Makes Progress
It’s easy to sit back and see someone else doing something that we wish we could do. Then we try once, or twice and because we can’t do it as well as that other person we decide that we can’t do it and just give up. Or we don’t even bother to try because we […]
Pascoe Canada Lymphdiaral Cream – Final Thoughts
It’s now been a month since I started using the Pascoe Canada Lymphdiaral Cream to help with DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness), so I thought today was a good day to recap my experience and to give you my final thoughts on both the product and using it for DOMS. In case you missed my […]
5 Reasons You Will LOVE Trekz Titanium Headphones #BeOpen
A few weeks ago through my ambassadorship with Fit Approach, I was selected to be part of the #ShokzSquad and review the Aftershokz Trekz Titanium Bluetooth headphones.

We’ve hit that point in the summer TV schedule where the two most exciting things (that aren’t in repeat) are Big Brother and American Ninja Warrior. Of the two, American Ninja Warrior is my favourite, I love watching the “ninja’s” making their way through crazy obstacles while I sit on the couch and eat my […]

Online Bootcamps Now Available Year Round
Hey there! Since I’m between sessions of my live Online Bootcamp programs (next one will be starting in a few weeks!), I thought it was a good time to go back through my previous Online bootcamps and make them accessable to everyone year round! When I initally launch a new session of Bootcamp, I keep […]
Why I Hung Up My Running Shoes
I realised that while I’ve mentioned it here and there, and those close to me know why I don’t think I’ve ever come right out and explained why I decided to give up running. In short – it wasn’t serving me. If you want the long version, it’s well – longer. After the infamous (to me) […]
