Racism needs to be condemned. Have you seen this on your feed lately? Good. Being married to a person of colour I have seen up close how alive it is, but this isn’t about being married to someone of a different skin tone, because even if I wasn’t, this horrific evil would still enrage me. Anti-black racism persists, it’s violent and it is evil. It needs to be condemned and justice needs to be served. We are all made in the image of God. If you have an account with just 1 follower, you have influence. Use your voice. Use the BREATH in your lungs you get to have, as others much less privileged and fortunate than you cry out for air. Check your family and friends who make racist comments. Get people around you that don’t look like you. This isn’t something that just exists in America, it’s everywhere. It’s in my own country, right here in Canada, that is praised for being so multicultural, yet so much racism still exists. “Change your heart, change your home, change humanity.” - @ohhappydani (thank you for your beautiful presence, voice, art and education) #RIPGeorgeFloyd #RacismIsEvil #BlackLivesMatter #SeekJustice

Behind those smiles was still a lot of healing and

Behind those smiles was still a lot of healing and hurt taking place. This was October of last year in Spain & I found it really hard to “show up” especially online while we were going through such a tough year but have learned that I can take what’s holding me back from showing up, as a way to show up! Being transparent and sharing our stories, struggles and life on @jollyeverafterpodcast has connected me so much more to you guys. My community 🤍 I’m forever grateful for the DMs and sweet words of encouragement and so humbled to hear when we help one of you. Today, these smiles are genuine and we’ve done so much soul work and healing, but it’s still a hard season for many different reasons. Today we’re sharing how we are staying positive through the hardships in our latest episode. I think so many can relate that this is a hard season, globally, on top of what may have already been put in your life, before this happened in our world. If I’ve learned anything it’s that these seasons truly are an immense opportunity for growth. I have loved this quote (not even sure who said it, please credit below if you do), “bless the thing that broke you down and cracked you open, because the world needs you open.” Staying open and transparent once again, tune in today to hear how we’re navigating our fertility journey and life at the moment.

This is my city 🤍 Toronto. I just want to take

This is my city 🤍 Toronto. I just want to take a pause and show appreciation to the frontline workers right here where I live and say thank you! The places we used to gather to cheer on our favourite sports teams, @ScotiabankArena and #BMOField, have now been transformed by MLSE into the city’s largest kitchens producing up to 13,000 meals a day for front line workers and shelters 👏💪 This is how we can bring Toronto back to its feet quicker - when we come together and help (if that’s by lending our support/services or just following rules in social distancing). I’m looking at you Toronto 👀 Let’s be champs in getting our city back on its feet just like we got that trophy last year 😉🏀🏆 Tag your thank you message with #BringTorontoBack! #sslovestoronto #lovemycity #thankyoufrontliners #MLSE_Partner

Needed a mental break and escape, so I thought it

Needed a mental break and escape, so I thought it would be fun to have a picnic out in the backyard. Being in nature always helps me be more mindful and sitting on the grass is so grounding for me! Enjoying the delicious @littlebuddhacocktailco 🍍Grilled Pineapple and Rosemary cocktail - it's lovingly crafted with organic, health-forward and socially conscious ingredients (0 sugar) and female founded, which I love supporting! Are you going to set up a picnic this week? Let me know if you add this fun drink to the mix! #LifeIsBuddhaful #LittleBuddhaCC #mindfulmoments #picnicdate

Any healthy relationship comes with conflict & ove

Any healthy relationship comes with conflict & over the years how we’ve dealt with it (dating as teens, then into our 20’s and later this year we’ll be entering our 30’s) has definitely changed and evolved (thankfully for the better)! Today’s @jollyeverafterpodcast episode is all about how we deal with conflict in our marriage (spilling some tea and what our weak spots are 😜). Neal and I have lived and worked with each other from home for years but for some in this quarantine all this newfound time and shared space 24/7 can be a pressure cooker. We’re hoping today’s episode can offer some tips for communication and help you come to resolutions quicker 🥴😉 while cultivating more grace in your relationship. Something we always say when we’re being pissy with each other is, “same team.” I’ll leave you with this excerpt today I love: “Happiness in marriage is not something that just happens. A good marriage must be created. It is standing together facing the world. It is not looking for perfection in each other. It is cultivating flexibility, patience, understanding and a sense of humour. It is having the capacity to forgive and forget. It’s discovering what marriage can be, at its best.” - Wilfred A. Peterson’s Poem, The Art Of Marriage 🤍 #TeamJolly #SameTeam #MeaningOfMarriage #GraceFilledLiving #JollyEverAfterPodcast #TheArtOfMarriage

Salt + Sun have always been my two favourite skincare ingredients 💦 I’m sharing my simplified quarantine skin routine on the blog today. I really started switching over to “clean” ingredients last year when we began our fertility journey. There are so many toxins and disrupters in products and I really have just wanted to use more natural, organic products as much as possible. I still do enjoy treatments/masks/eye creams that aren’t 100% but it’s all about moderation! My everyday consists of clean, simple ingredients and I try to let my skin breathe. Who else is trying to make more of a switch to cleaner products? Sharing more on stories & on my blog today if you’re interested (as well as discount codes, since I know skincare can be an investment when you’re switching over)✨
