💗 WEEK 6 Self-Talk & Compassion 💗
*Valentine’s Edition*😚

I’m heading into Week 6 of my Accountability Group and this call has truly been the highlight of my week.

This Saturday we’re talking about the relationship you have with yourself.

Because how you talk to yourself matters.

We’ll also do our weekly check-in on how our fitness and wellness habits are going, celebrate wins, and reset where needed.

Harsh self-talk reduces consistency.
Supportive self-talk builds resilience.

I’m opening this week’s call to any women who would like to join us.
It’s FREE.
You’re not behind.
You’re not disqualified.
You are welcome.

Wear something red, pink, or white if you’d like 💕

💌 DM me “SELF LOVE” for the Google Meet invite.

✨ Proof That Showing Up Matters ✨
I wanted to share this because it honestly made my day.

On my lunch break, I ran into one of our accountability group ladies at the gym and we took this photo right after our workouts. Sweaty, tired, and happy. No filters, no perfect moment, just real life.

During that same lunch break, I saw another accountability group lady walking the track. She was just quietly getting her movement in. Seeing familiar faces like that truly filled my cup.

It reminded me that what you are doing matters, even when it feels small and even when no one is watching. What you committed to in the accountability group is showing up in real life.

Our last call really encouraged me. We talked honestly about how the week went, the struggles, the off days, and how everyone kept going anyway. We reminded ourselves that consistency is more powerful than motivation, especially on the days motivation is nowhere to be found.

If this week felt hard or unproductive, please know you are not behind. You are still in it.

✨ Next accountability call
Saturday, January 24th at 9:00 PM

Come exactly as you are. Listen, share, or reflect. All of it counts. I am really proud of this group and the effort you are putting in. Let’s keep going 🤍

DM me if you’d like to join, we are going into Week 3/8. There’s always time to learn to incorporate wellness 🙌🏼

Truth and Reconciliation: A Full Circle Moment

Today, on September 30th —Truth and Reconciliation Day, I reflect on how far I’ve come as an Indigenous woman and how deeply this journey has been about healing.

My late granny, my late mom, and my older sister all attended Residential school. Three generations before me carried that pain. But with me, it stopped. I had a choice: to continue the cycle or to heal. I chose to pray. I chose to heal.

For the little girl inside of me who didn’t always get the love and support she needed…this is a full circle moment. I never thought I would be here, standing in a place where I get to empower women, guide them in holistic health, and connect our healing back to the Medicine wheel.

When we heal from our traumas and pain, we are not just healing ourselves—we are creating healthier families, stronger communities, and brighter generations to come. That is the true spirit of reconciliation: restoring balance, reclaiming our strength, and honoring our stories.

We are strong. We are resilient. And we are still here. 🧡

Mind + Body = Powerhouse 🌿✨

At our Edmonton Staff Retreat in the Fantasyland Hotel, I had the privilege of presenting as the owner of Resilient and Redefined Wellness. 🎤 I spoke on the power of the mind-body connection. How deeply tied they are, and how caring for both allows us to thrive not only in our personal lives, but in the important work we do every day.

I know my mom would be so proud of me, and I truly felt she was right there with me in those moments. 💛I had everyone’s attention, and even got our Health Director up and moving! 🙌

Grateful for this experience, the engagement, and the reminder of how strong we are when we care for our whole selves. 🌿

Lunch break mom: thriving vs.
After work mom: surviving. 💀

Exhaustion is real, but so is the power we carry as women. God’s strength in us is greater. We keep going with grace because little eyes are watching and many hearts are depending on us. That’s the blessing of resilience. 💖

But remember momma, fuel your body, hydrate, and give yourself the rest you deserve too. 🙏🏼

A week of firsts 💛

This week was a pivotal one for me — and I’m feeling so grateful.

I facilitated my first two-day staff training (with amazing guest speakers!), led my first Public Health meeting, and completed an interview that pushed me out of my comfort zone in the best way.

It was a lot — but it reminded me how much I’ve grown, and how much I love the work I get to do.

And just when I start to feel like I’m failing at my wellness business — because I haven’t had the time or energy — I remind myself that I’m still showing up. I’m still helping my community every day through my full-time nursing supervisor role. That work matters deeply.

I’m in a quiet season right now, and that’s okay. Everything has its time. For now, I’m trusting the process and holding gratitude for all the ways I get to show up and make a difference — even if it looks different than I imagined.

Here’s to more firsts, more growth, and more reminders that I’m exactly where I’m meant to be. 💫

That voice in your head? 💭

The one that says “You’re not strong enough” or “Why even try?”
Let this be your reminder: every time you show up for yourself, you’re proving that voice wrong.

It’s not about perfection. It’s about commitment to yourself.

Some days, showing up looks like crushing a workout.
Other days, it’s simply lacing up your shoes or choosing rest without guilt.

Every time you choose you, self-doubt loses its grip.
Confidence is built in the showing up.

What’s one way you’re showing up for yourself today? Drop it in the comments or message me—I’d love to cheer you on! 🩷

Don’t be scared to build upper body muscle, girlie.

It doesn’t make you “too manly” or any less feminine — in fact, it makes you a baddie with balance. The kind of strong that can carry all the groceries in one trip and your baby on the other hip without breaking a sweat.

Muscles don’t take away from your softness — they enhance your strength, your power, and your presence. Strength looks good on us.

So here’s your reminder: lifting doesn’t make you bulky, it makes you capable, confident, and unstoppable.

I challenge you to lifting just a little bit heavier every couple of weeks. Push yourself until you have around 1-2 reps left in ya.

Strong AND feminine? — trust me, we can do both around here. 💋

Strong girls grow into powerful women! 🌟

Couple weekends ago, I had the amazing opportunity to lead the off-ice warm-up for the girlies at a two-day figure skating workshop! Big thanks to the La Ronge Figure Skating Club for having me—it was such a blast. I loved their energy, curiosity, and all the great questions about fitness. Thank you for the lovely gift. It keeps me nice and warm. (It’s a sweater, hehe).

Fun Fact: Girls who learn to work out properly at a young age build confidence, body awareness, and lifelong strength—not just in sport, but in life too. Empowered girls become powerful women! 💖
