What’s in your backpack?

Hey there! After a month hiatus from both blogging and podcasting, I’m back! September is the month of resetting for me and even though I’ve got a lot of stuff going on in the next week or two, it’s wonderful to feel like some routine is returning to life. With the return to school and […]

Making New Year’s Goals That You Can Actually Achieve

Would it really be January if bloggers didn’t take to their blogs to announce to the world their goals or their “word” for the year ahead? I think not! Instead of big sweeping goals that many (including myself) have declared in the past, I am sharing with you a handful of goals that are small, achievable […]

Perception: It’s not all rainbows and sunshine

Perception. I feel like this week’s Car Confessions got a little bit more sombre than I had set out for it to be, but I guess it went where it needed to go. Perception can be such a tricky thing, to someone else it can appear as though you have everything handled, your life is […]

Sometimes you need to tweak the recipe

A few weekends ago I decided to make some homemade bread. It was a stormy, snowy day and I have a  tendency to be a “storm baker”. I’ve made homemade bread lots of times before, but not frequent enough that I have a tried and true recipe that I go-to. So I did what any […]

Make Your Home Workouts Fun With Giant Tiger Workout Equipment

Make your next fitness workout more fun with strength training equipment (including kettle bells) from Giant Tiger!

One huge misconception about being a fitness instructor for a living, is that I get to be paid for doing my own workouts. This is sort of true when it comes to Zumba (though I’m still doing a lot more “work” while teaching than those who are participating!), but in yoga and strength classes especially […]

15 Minutes to Fit {A Review}

If getting healthy and fit is on your list of fitness goals for 2016, 15 Minutes To Fit is a must have book!

January. The start of a new year, and for many the start of new (or renewed) fitness goals. But let’s be honest. Most of us are super busy, and finding the time for working out an hour a day just isn’t a priority or sometimes feasible. That’s where short, intense equipment free workouts rule. As you all […]

How Are You Going To #OwnIt in 2016?

How Are You Going To #OwnIt in 2016?

How many times have you said something along the lines of, “I/We will finally _____________ when I lose these last few pounds.” Whether that blank is filled in with a dream vacation, family trip, updating your wardrobe, getting a new hair style, wear a bathing suit or any of the other million things we women want […]

5-Day Healthy Living Challenge

Happy (early) Thanksgiving to all of my American friends! Here in Canada we celebrated Thanksgiving in October so we are in full holiday mode. My husband doesn’t let me decorate until December 1st (and rightly so, otherwise I’d have had the tree up for over a month already, haha) but I am well into holiday […]

Look In The Mirror And #OwnIt All!

A few weeks ago I shared with you how I was inspired by Special K’s new #OwnIt campaign to start being nicer to myself. That I was going to honour my body and #OwnIt instead of punishing it when things didn’t go the way I wanted, and I wanted you to do the same. Today […]

Let’s Learn to Love Our Bodies and #OwnIt

When was the last time you said something nice about your body? Let me guess. You can’t remember. How about this – when was the last time to thought something negative about your body? This morning? Last night? Last week? 10 minutes ago? I bet you don’t have to think very hard do you?
