  • Just a little photo drop of last weekend because it was the tail end of my vacation and it was magical ✨ Something on my mind: I’ve gotten to the point in my life (& especially after this past year and a bit) where I throw on a bathing suit regardless of how I feel about myself & just say ‘fuck it’ 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’m making a promise to myself to never miss out on any adventures from being afraid of how I look. That being said, just because I’m able to say ‘fuck it’ doesn’t mean I’ve reached destination self-love. Everyone’s self-love journey is different and has natural ebbs and flows as we go throughout life. Right now I’m in a place where I’m appreciative for my body and all that it does for me, while simultaneously recognizing I don’t feel or look like the healthiest version of myself. I thought I’d originally be able to fit all of my thoughts here in a caption, but maybe this would work out better as a blog post 😝 The main takeaway is to embrace wherever you’re at on your self-love journey, and that you can have conflicting thoughts and feelings that exist at the same time. So, for the meantime, I’ll continue to wear all of the swimsuits, honor my body in the best ways I know how & give myself grace all the while doing it 💛

  • There’s one thing I never say no to - and that’s ice cream 🍦after coming home from camp and feeling a little worried about all of the things I had to do, I decided to take a little time for myself with some @halotop_ca and not give a should! ‘Not giving a should’ is the motto of the summer - it challenges you to let go of feeling the pressure and embrace what feels good! There are so many things we end up stressing about and I’m telling you that dessert doesn’t have to be one of them 🙌🏻 this summer, #dontgiveashould and choose more of what makes you happy 🍦💦🌞 With over 20 flavours to choose from, more protein, fewer calories and less sugar, dessert can be one less should in your life! You can also give @halotop_ca a follow to be rewarded all summer long 🌲🍭🌞 I’m torn between chocolate chip cookie dough & birthday cake as my fav flavours, what’s your favourite? 😋 #HaloTop_Partner #dontgiveashould

  • Leaving camp to come home is such a bittersweet feeling 🥺 being a camp nurse was my first ever nursing job out of school & always holds such a special place in my heart 💛 it was amazing to see it all come together with the proper protocols to have a super safe camp experience (that the kids absolutely adored) 🙌🏻 While I was often up in the ‘Infirmary’, I did get a chance to spend some time outside and catch some sun(sets) 🌞 here’s a small collection of little snippets of downtime (I would never share the kiddies on here for safety reasons so these are the non-kid collection of moments ☺️) Did you ever go to summer camp? I did day camp but never a sleep away camp!

  • Is mindfulness and mindset something you’re interested in? I shared a few months ago in my stories how excited I was to finally get my hands on the Five Minute Journal and start using it daily! On the blog I’ve shared with you what the Five Minute Journal is and how it changed my mindset, how it improved my day and the benefits of using it long term! (Check the link under latest post to check it out!) I’ve missed chatting with you guys on my stories! 🥺 As much fun as I’ve been having at camp, my service is not the greatest! I can’t wait to come back on stories more often when I return home later this week ☺️

  • We seem to always forget that we’re the main character in our own stories. Without you, there is no story. Take care of yourself, put yourself first, make self care and self fulfillment a priority & make sure you fill your own cup first ✨
