That one blog post where I lay it all out on the line

Over the course of the eleven years of sharing #DoTheDaniel moments, memories and so much more with you all, I’ve been many different versions of myself. I shared a post on social media this weekend where I opened up about my mental health and how often times over those same years when people would ask me how I was, I would respond with “fine” and “good” when I really wasn’t.

While I didn’t see me sharing the following blog post like how I am about to, I think it’s important amid a journey of introspection and making real change that I acknowledge the life I have lived and the things I have endured.

I want to make it very clear that the following post contains trigger warnings of sexual abuse, substance abuse, eating disorders and trauma.

I saw Frozen The Musical, and here’s what I really thought

If you’ve had children of your own, or have been around children since 2013 when Disney first released Frozen, you’ll know the words to “Let it Go” and “In Summer” off by heart. It was absolutely everywhere, and I know that I was a super fan back then alongside friends and family. When movies are made into musicals, I often wonder if the same magic gets translated into sets, special effects, and costume design.

Last night I was invited to the premiere of Frozen The Musical at The National Arts Centre in Ottawa by Broadway Across Canada, and here is what I really thought about it.

When it doubt, a new fragrance always helps me

For those of you who know me, you’ll know that I love fragrances. I have probably around four to five of them on the go at once, and save the important ones I receive as gifts for the most special of occasions. That being said, if you’re also like me, you are probably due for a bit of a refresh on that shelf in the bathroom or place on your drawer. I’m here to share with you about H24 Herbes Vives by Hermès and how it’s quickly becoming one of my favourite scents of 2024.

Can we take a moment to talk about Mississauga ?

With 2024 well underway and so many fabulous destinations to explore in Canada, I’ve been recently sharing places that I and we have loved to explore. We all know that Toronto is home in my heart, and recently upon a visit to Mississauga for a brand event, I got to thinking about it as both a destination for tourists and Torontonians alike. This is my first of many online love letters and why you should consider to #VisitMississauga in 2024 like I plan to.
