The World Through My Eyes

If you are someone who has the energy and stamina to use this time to work on your physical health, this article is for you! Here are 3 Health and Fitness Tips you can use for Quarantine Life!

It’s February, and many of us have lost sight of the resolutions set just 1 month ago. In fact, 80% of new year's resolutions fail, and 55% percent of people that set wellness goals fall off the wagon within the first month! But this doesn’t have to be your narrative. Here I share my Top Tips to staying motivated on this journey!

It’s no secret, I love Italy! After showing my family this magical country for 8 days, I put together this robust itinerary for you! We enjoyed Rome, Tuscany, and Venice - I share accommodations, our experiences, and our overall approach. Enjoy!!

Here’s a quick blog post on the importance of morning routines that you can reference moving forward. I walk you through my process and assist in helping you design your own! 

What good is living a life of success and fulfilment, if you can’t help others do the same? I’m all about adding value where it makes sense, and it just doesn’t feel right sharing all of this glamour without having you understand the path that got me here. I've been blessed in so many ways and I’d like to share my process in a little more detail with you.

In this month’s feature I am so honoured and grateful to share the survival story of one of my best friends. Rondette overcame a scary encounter with blood clots that traveled to her lungs resulting in a week in the hospital. We are so thankful she lives on to share her story and is gracious enough to share her experience, causes, symptoms, and tips on how to avoid it!

I'm thrilled to have partnered with the folks at All The Rooms to share with you my favourite things about Jamaica. I hope after reading this piece you realize that while relaxing on a resort is tempting, you can also travel Jamaica like a local and truly witness all the beauty this island has to offer! 

I always say I’ll try everything at least once – So I’m putting that to test by finally giving The Whole30 a try! For those that don’t know, it’s a popular diet plan that millions have tried and continuously praise! Given I’m back in North America for the summer, I figure I’d hop on the band wagon for the month of June as it will be easier to follow!

After several requests, I’m finally taking the time to share my top 20 things to do in Indonesia! I’ve been based in Bali for about a year and before I depart this month, I want to pay homage to this wonderful island I’ve been blessed to called home.

Cheats Meals - there are two sides to the argument. Those that are all for it (my side), and those that are against it for many reasons.  I'm here to share tips on how I've successfully integrated weekly cheat meals/drinks/treats into my lifestyle for the last 11 years as a way to maintain 100lb weight loss

As I've mentioned in previous posts, one of my big goals this year is to provide tangible and practical advice on how I live a healthy sustainable life. So this quick post details my latest mini transformation!

December and January were busy. If you include layovers, I was in 5 time zones and 6 countries. My internal system was a hot mess! So when I got back to Bali I committed to focusing solely on my health and prioritizing it above all.

So, if there's one thing I took from all of your comments/messages/and emails last year - it's that you are looking for more practical advice on how you can achieve your goals. So, I'm here to provide it! In this post I share my regimen before losing the weight, while losing the weight, and my current routine that helps me maintain!

This is one of the most powerful interviews I've completed to date, and I am thrilled to share it with you. I came across Holly's story on Instagram and immediately reached out to her. Her story inspired me in ways I didn't know possible. Her perseverance and resilience through her journey is unlike anything I've come across. Enjoy!

2018 marks the 11th year of my 90-pound weight loss success story! I think it’s important I share this because many of you will be embarking on your own weight loss journey in 2018.Many don’t know, but my weight loss was a result of a New Year’s resolution set 11 years ago. Back in January 2007, I decided it was finally time to take control of my health. After many unsuccessful attempts, I hopped on the bandwagon (yet again) with nothing but hope.

It’s no secret - my passion for travel runs deep. I aim to get out and explore somewhere new at least once per month. It brings me a level of joy I didn’t know possible. This year, I was fortunate to visit 3 continents, 15 countries, and over 30 cities/towns. I thought it might be helpful if I share a summary of the countries I visited throughout the year!

Assigning a number to your food sucks. Period. And I'm here to tell you today why it's something I stopped doing a long long time ago. If you are someone who is currently tracking your food (or considering it) and curious if it's the right approach for you, this article may provide interesting perspective!

Now I'm not referring to the person who indulges every "once in a while" and easily has constraint and discipline. I'm talking to the person who constantly struggles with overeating to the point where it becomes a serious mental battle. You know who you are, and I'm speaking to you.

It wasn't until I addressed my negative relationship with food that I was able to understand that I in fact have an addiction, and struggle with it every day. The hardest part is, my "drug of choice" is necessary for survival. My "drug of choice" is easily accessible, legal, and cheap. My "drug of choice" is a silent killer and has likely taken more lives than any other substance out there. 

If you follow me on Snap Chat/IG stories, you might remember me stirring up a bit of controversy this past summer. I (angrily) addressed some party shamers who eluted to the fact that because I'm a health nut, I shouldn't be out nearly as often as I was. Needless to say, I was pissed! However, I took that annoying instance as an opportunity to help share how I juggle living a healthy lifestyle and partying!

If you're one of those people that don't eat breakfast because you're too busy in the mornings, this post may be helpful for you! All too often I hear excuses from my clients as to why they don't eat breakfast and I think it's time I address the importance of this meal and share some quick ways to get it in!

These days, I spend most of my time traveling the world while working online. I'm sharing my process in chronological detail. I hope this helps those that are looking to live their life by design. Enjoy!

8 weeks. 5 countries. 17 cities. Infinite Memories: As I was frolicking around Europe this past summer, an influx of daily questions came through. I promised I would answer them at some point and now is the time! Here are your questions answered. 

My experience going Vegan for the month! My intention was to simply try it out. I had no expectations, but I was keen to see what the effects would be on my body - especially while training heavily. If you're keen to get on your own Vegan journey - you may find this helpful.

To date, my most popular post has been Project Me  where I outline my decision to take a break from corporate and live a more meaningful and purpose-driven life filled with travel. Well, after many requests for an update - here you are!

After nearly a decade in corporate, I decided it was time for a break! I posted about this on Instagram and my inbox flooded with inquiries. Now that I’m in Bali, the questions are getting pretty intense so I’m compelled to write a blog post about my upcoming plans!

Hey Guys! So I thought I would quickly  share with you how I'm finding balance these days with my diet. As you know, I lost 90lbs 10 years ago. Since then, I've been preaching to anyone that will listen the importance of building a lifestyle that works for you! A huge part of that is your diet.

Hey Guys! If you've been following me for a while, you know I LOVE me some health challenges. So I decided it was time to create one! I've been traveling nonstop and I'm finally able to settle in for the next while and give my health some well deserved TLC.
