Like I’ve Been Holding My Breath All Along

I think I’ve been starting at my computer screen for days. A thought sparks in my brain about what I want to write about, or what deal I need to get started on, and for the first 30 seconds I get going and it’s magic.

Shortly after I find myself distracted and pulled in another direction. I want to be simultaneously blogging, creating REELs, sending invoices, actually figuring out what the fuck I’m doing with myself these days, spend time with Julio, drink wine, talk to my friends, pay down some bills, workout. That’s just to name a few of the thoughts and directions I am pulled in at any given time of day.

Some might say I’m in the midst of an epic burnout (again), but the fact remains that any business owner lives this every day. Big, small, entrepreneur and everything in between. Working for yourself may seem fabulous but it’s a lot of juggling and just keeping your head above water. Like I am holding my breath and hoping for this rough patch to just finally be done.

Here’s How You Can Plan The Perfect Pet Friendly Weekend Away

As the summer officially starts to wind down, it’s time to think about the Labour Day long weekend and planning weekends in the fall – which I have to admit is my favourite season of all. Ontario offers some of the most beautiful destinations, and while many of us dream of beaches and plane trips, I am also here to remind you that a perfect weekend can happen just a few hours away. So it’s time to pack up your special someone, grab the dog, and come along with me to one the best kept secret Ontario has to offer.

The Stars Aligned For This One

We all know that by default I’ll usually enjoy a glass of Rosé at any time of year, but especially in the summer months. Some of you also know that I am inching towards 40 years old next year and therefore grew up in the 80s and 90s, which in my opinion, are the best years of all musicly. SO…. When I found out that when a king of 90s music has teamed up with a king of the wine world (that I’ve shared about before) to release a bottle of Rosé my heart was aflutter and I had to tell you all about it!

Not EXACTLY How I Saw This Year Going

As with most of my more vulnerable and honest blog posts, I am often back and forth on if I want to hit publish at all. While I love that I can sit here and share (sometimes too much ) with you my darling reader, the vulnerability it takes to pull the curtain back and share the whole picture is at times overwhelming.

I want to say that everything in my life is perfect and it’s all smiles and big pay cheques with brand partners, but in reality it’s far from that. And I am sitting at my dinning room table in July of 2022 feeling like I’ve failed in several ways this year and all over again.
