I made this in late 2020 and slowly most of it is coming true…manifesting/making it real never ceases to amaze me but the regular reminders and visuals really help.

My rainy work day involved a craft supply run, grocery shop, pottery business meeting, entrepreneur caucus virtual roundtable with cross party representatives, bit of activism and scheduling various family member medical appointments.

This artwork represents SDG 5: Gender Equality. It features my Babies, Business and Breakfast parent-friendly professional development alongside four other community projects from across Canada.

My magic making corner: Art, astrology and inspirational books, fresh peonies, tarot and oracle decks, a handwritten golden vision card and a diary to record my thoughts. All covering an air duct, much nicer to look at!

The first Parent-Friendly Professional Development Pop Up Event I hosted in May 2018 – I went on to host a few more events before the pandemic and now it’s a virtual community with plans to spread across the country through Startup Canada Communities.

Thanks to modern technology, I could livestream from my home office in Ottawa across multiple countries in real time, facilitate chat with attendees and live Tweet, while Nana looked after my two kids at home.

Mother Nature threw us a curveball the day before but definitely delivered a wonderful pre Summer Solstice celebration.

Pleasure over pressure: In the words of Rebecca Campbell, this is how I’ve been feeling over the past year and a half.

This article will give you a bit of insight into why I’m creating a podcast, my basic workflow and the tools I use.
