    How My Word of The Year Became a Matter of Life or Death

    June 13, 2018 /

    “I wish Dad was younger,” my daughter said driving home from a play rehearsal the other night. “If you think about it he could be 70 when I am in my 20s.” Math is not usually our conversation on the drive home. Neither is life or death. But here we are. Often I have to wonder how their minds work. “I wish you were younger too. I mean if you think about it you could both be dead before I’m 40.” Oh my god my head hurts some days keeping up with this kid. But I get it. It’s a fear of dying and every child has that to a…

    What’s Your Word of the Year for 2018?

    January 2, 2018 /

    What’s your word of the year? Every year for the last 6 years in a row I have chosen a word or phrase to guide my personal and professional attitude for the year. This has often been a really positive proactive experience for me. The year I chose Grow, I grew. The year I chose productivity I was productive. And so on. My word of the year is my philosophy or vision. I was astonished actually when I went back through my files this week and discovered I have been doing this for longer than I thought. In fact, I have chosen to do this since 2012. My first ever…

    November 17, 2017 /

    October was a month of travel for me. I was away more than I was home. Which was awesome, but all that travel meant I missed my workouts and while I ate well, I also ate more than usual. Don’t even get me started on all the Irish Coffee and great wine, whiskey and beer in Ireland. That’s why I decided to take the Renew Life 30-day challenge promoting gut health. Basically that meant increasing my exercise and my water intake and adding probiotics to the mix again. Why probiotics? Well here’s what I have found.   Saturday starts with a good workout always then groceries and today setting up new…

    Twiga fitness leggings are my new favourite. Let me tell you why. I spend a decent amount of time at the gym. Some weeks not as much as I wish, and other weeks exactly the right amount for me. I need proper gear when I am at the gym doing centergy, or weights, or pilates, or group fit. For the summer I have shorts I love that are moisture wicking and work beautifully for me. In the winter I have warm full length yoga pants that are also my office wear some days. It’s the in between times where I never seem to have enough of the right clothing that…
