After 2 months of hard work, I finally have the new structure for my book! 🙌 Forever grateful to Leisse Wilcox | Leadership Development Expert for guiding me through this process. I wouldn't have been able to do this without your love and guidance. 🙏🧡

The impact of notifications on our ability to focus is incredible. Today's #50Ways prompt: turn off at least one notification on your phone RIGHT NOW. Carve out times in your day when DMs are blocked & your phone silenced. Your head could use a break from the distractions!

This book by Sonora Jha really hit home for me because, well, I have 2 sons! My takeaway is we all can be raising our kids to be feminists, especially our sons. It’s about asking questions, challenging the stereotypes, & understanding our biases. I recommend picking it up!

A few years ago I signed up for HelloFresh Canada meal service. I didn't like cooking, it got in the way of getting work done. 4 years later--it's changed my life! My mindset shifted from cooking is getting in the way of my productivity to cooking as a way to settle down and relax.

Can't wait to dive in to these new releases! Both are related to different ways that will #IgniteYourSpirit. I'm so curious to read Susan Cain's book because it'll deepen my ability to embrace feelings--especially the uncomfortable ones. Can't wait to share what I learn!

#50Ways prompt of the week: hug someone! A woman I met gives #freehugs to strangers. She has 40-50 people requesting a hug each hour, some hugs lasting a few minutes. Hugs are a beautiful way to connect without words and let someone know they are important and are seen 🧡

Forcing people back into an office just 'cause that's the way we used to work isn't going to work. We need to recognize that we need time to heal. Decision makers for organizations--times are different now & you can't lead the way you used! Article loom.ly/jSwceQo
