The Luxury Discovery Suite Is Going To Make Life More Beautiful

We have been lucky to attend some pretty spectacular events over the years since launching Do The Daniel. With our fifth birthday around the corner, I am coming to realize that some of the most luxurious events have been my favourite ones to share with you all. A moment that I saved up, or invited to, that I have felt as though I deserved to spoil myself or the ones I love. Chances are if you’re like me, you deserve to treat yourself as well after working so hard all year long. Well my dear friends – I have the perfect idea for you to treat yourself and someone special right here in Toronto.  Continue reading “The Luxury Discovery Suite Is Going To Make Life More Beautiful”

What Does It Mean To Be Mindful?

For those of you who follow along with us on social media, you’ll have noticed that recently I had the pleasure of spending the morning with Capital One Canada at The Broadview Hotel here in Toronto. Centered around the idea of mindfulness, something that I’ll be honest I haven’t always been very good at, it turned out to be one of the most inspiring moments I have had in a very long time. Not only reminding me what it was like to reconnect with my friends in this industry, it also provided me with some concrete tools to be more mindful in my day-to-day life. As we get closer to the excitement of Credit Education Week, I thought I would share my five tips to #MoneyMindfulness with you all in hopes that just like how Capital One Canada inspired me to be better, I can do the same for you heading into the holiday season.

My Happiest Holiday Memories Might Surprise You

There are fews things that I love more than memories. I’m a hopeless romantic and a sentimentalist. I associate items, songs and places with people. It’s something I have always done and love about myself. I can look at a napkin I kept from a restaurant that I keep in a memory box and remember how it felt to enjoy a meal with someone and the moment I realized I loved them. It seems silly, but that’s just how I see the world – full of beautiful moments that I carry with me. The holidays are a special time for me and while we get excited for the season ahead, and attend some pretty spectacular events around the world, I wanted to take a moment to share why some of my happiest holiday memories might in fact surprise you. It’s not the tree or the onesies (though both important of course) but rather the simple moments with those I love that help to remind me of what is important.  Continue reading “My Happiest Holiday Memories Might Surprise You”

Kick Starting The Holiday Season

We are well into the month of November, and I am wondering how are you handling the last stretch of 2018? I for one couldn’t be more excited, as the holidays are the most wonderful time of the year. With everything from visiting friends and family, to giving to the community with my new volunteer positions I have taken on, I look forward to the season and all the wonderful experiences it entails. Recently I had the pleasure of joining Hudson’s Bay, and the third annual holiday window reveal. This unveiling has quickly become one of my favourite events of the year and always puts me in the holiday spirit. Did I also mention I got to meet pop music royalty?  Continue reading “Kick Starting The Holiday Season”
