Hello there! A little about me… I am a wife and mother of a beautifully wild son. Born and raised Calgarian who has lived in all quadrants of our gorgeous city. I have travelled parts of the world (still many places on my list) and experienced beyond adventures with some life changing events.

As my world started to become very routine with this new life of Covid, I felt so beige and in need of…. Something. A dear friend of mine suggested I start a blog which I had kind of already thought of so these words gave me the push I needed.  I was previously asked to write about my Postpartum experience and I didn’t have what most would assume a Postpartum Story would, it was raw and honest truths of life after. It felt incredible. I felt alive writing it all out as the emotion ran through my body to my mind and down to my thumbs as I typed away on my phone. Once I was done, I shot it off and threw my phone to my right side. Took a few breathes and continued on with my evening. I realized once my story was published that I wanted to create a space to bring out my voice and hopefully others can hear.  When I received some feedback from my post, it really hit home how we have such an inner desire to be heard and actually listened too. Most of us go through such experiences in life and fear bringing out the words we want to speak due to the way we fear society will view us. I’m hoping I can create a safe space for myself and any other person who would love to share.  We just need to listen.
