A Day in the Life of An Ophthalmologist

Recently, I had the pleasure of sitting down with an actual ophthalmologist, similar to the ophthalmologists in Portland Oregon, to chat about what the heck it is that they do on a daily basis. Not many people have actually heard of the term ophthalmology and if they did, it wouldn’t be an easy job to imagine how exactly they study eye care, or how they carry out their daily work.

Now, I know we covered some of this on the blog before, but I think it’s really important to gain a better understanding of how important their role is within the medical community. That’s why I decided to hang out with one of the best in the industry for a little Q & A.

Are you a Makeup Junky or a Spa Fanatic?

There are only a few places where I can spend hours exploring and experimenting with products, while talking myself into items that I never set out to buy… That holy place is SEPHORA! As we approach the season of giving, SEPHORA should be your first stop to stock up on stalking stuffers, gift sets, and amazing spa products. A friend recently mentioned that she had found an amazing product to make her lashes pop, it was serum from Xlash, or somewhere like that. My point is that Sephora is the best place to find little must-haves like that which are perfect to pop in stockings. Here are my top selections for the makeup junky and spa fanatic in your life.

Help us #ChampionHer all year long

There is so much happening in the world today, and I believe that we sometimes forget to share and celebrate the good all around us.

My Dad used to always say that you get what you give. So I want to help inspire you as you read this blog post with something that touched my heart and I feel is worth sharing.  Continue reading “Help us #ChampionHer all year long”

Surprise! We’re moving into our new home for the holidays!

Over the last few months, you’ve been following our story as Julio and I spent months navigating the Toronto housing market in collaboration with Engel & Vo?lkers. Our mission: to find a family-friendly unit that would be the perfect starter home for Canela, Julio and I as we expand our growing family (yes, you read that right!). We learned quickly that family-friendly units in Toronto are in short supply. Our real estate advisor, Shawn Blander, of Engel & Völkers Toronto Uptown proved to be an asset in a market that is really competitive right now, but we’ll get to that later. After months of searching, we’re SO excited to announce that we finally found the perfect home! Just in time to be the best Christmas present from ourselves to ourselves. I can’t wait until we can have a housewarming party so we can show our friends and family our new home. A couple of our friends have moved into a new house too and I’ve heard about a gift Source website where I can buy a fabulous gift for them and their new place. Continue reading “Surprise!
