Imposter Syndrome. I used to hear this term & see it used in social media A LOT. Once I tuned into reading more about it, I thought "Oh crap ... I experience this sometimes."

My understanding of this term is that you doubt your talents, skills & capabilities. You sometimes feel like a fraud and that others might doubt you too.

I recently had this surface a bit and was seeing all of the amazing things other practitioners were/are doing. I started feeling a little down on myself. If it's a quiet week or month my mind occasionally goes a little squirrely. I am human after all.

When I come back to my WHY & my purpose then I feel charged. I have no doubt that what I offer is truly AMAZING! And to be honest, I wish everyone tried it because I would love the opportunity to help.

My purpose is to help you;
💫 find your inner light & joy
💫 work through layers of healing
💫 relax & feel lighter
💫 increase/shift your consciousness
💫 forgive self & others
💫 increase your self-love
💫 find your way on your life path

If this resonates, you’re not alone ❤️ What helps you reconnect with your purpose when self-doubt creeps in?

This is a Happiness magnet that my son gave me for my birthday. He pointed out that he picked it out for me.

I said, "Thank you. It's so beautiful." I was immediately struck by the thoughtfulness of the gift & the depth of the words. An old soul in a 10 year old's body.

When I put it up on the fridge I read it again. My eyes welled up with tears. I was struck by the beauty of this special gift.

There have been times in my life where I looked outside of myself to find happiness. I have spent time learning how to truly love & accept myself for the perfectly imperfect being that I am 😊

To me this magnet represents the love, thoughtfulness, emotional intelligence & intuitiveness of my son. It also represents my personal journey toward happiness, discovering my personal power, strength & self-love ❤️

Hi! 👋 Checking in! How are you guys?

10/13/2025

Feeling so grateful 🙏 for the most amazing people in my life. Thank you to my; family, son, friends, clients & partner. You all bring so much joy into my life 🥰 I spent Thanksgiving weekend with family eating delicious food.

I am also feeling grateful 🫶 that the CBT eating disorder program I participated in, for Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) helped me to be able to eat more comfortably in social settings. It feels so freeing to be present with people & conversation while eating rather than consumed by constant anxious food thoughts. I am definitely celebrating this! What's something you're grateful for? I'd love ❤️ to hear.

Love this photo of us at Sanctuary Conscious Leaders Retreat July 2025! 🥰 Photo credit:

Many people aren't aware that last year at sanctuary I had fears to eat in front of others. Prior to attending last year, I had been diagnosed with an eating disorder called ARFID (Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder). ARFID was brought on by experiencing a traumatic illness for a year without a diagnosis. My body was ill with a parasitic infection for one year before I had the proper diagnosis/treatment. During that time I developed a lot of unhealthy behaviours around food as a means of survival & safety. The problem was when the illness left . . . the behaviours, thoughts & negative ways of coping around food remained.

I suffered for 11 years until I was finally diagnosed with ARFID. When I attended the retreat last year I was in the middle of treatment and was doing a lot of exposure therapies, meaning putting myself out there in uncomfortable eating situations & using my positive coping skills. Relearning how to eat in social situations, with loud music & eating more without leaving, etc

There was one occasion last year at the retreat where I left the dining hall early because I felt so anxious & uncomfortable dealing with ARFID. I continued to eat meals with others & was able to stay. I completed my ARFID treatment last fall & was officially discharged. Yay! 🙌

When I attended Sanctuary retreat last month, I never had to leave a meal due to eating issues. I still had the occasional anxious thought around food as I am still reprogramming and getting used to the fact that "I CAN DO THIS"

This was the most FREE I felt in group eating situations in a loooong time! This community of dragonflies/friends made it easy to feel SAFE, SUPPORTED, ACCEPTED & LOVED. Thank you 🙏 to my friends in the

This is my reminder For You;
❤️ Find a Community
❤️ Cherish Your Supports
❤️ You CAN do difficult things
❤️ Whatever it is You're Facing, You GOT This! 💪

Love ❤️ & Light 🕯✨️

Hi! 👋 I'm back! I made it back from Sanctuary Conscious Leaders Retreat. And yes I got a sunburn on the very first day during opening ceremonies 😆 I've been integrating eversince. What a beautiful healing & joyful experience! We laughed, we cried, we sang, we ate, we swam, we healed & we danced. I am so blessed to have been immersed in this beautiful sanctuary for 5 days with so many beautiful souls 💗 (). I'll share some more of my experiences in my upcoming posts.

I love music & concerts but hadn't attended them in so long due to my battle with an eating disorder called arfid (Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake disorder). I honestly didn't know it even existed.

I had a parasitic infection for at least a year undiagnosed so I felt certain foods, eating situations & social settings weren't safe for me anymore. I suffered with arfid for 11 years. I had some positive moments however overall I was anxious in most social scenarios especially those involving food or crowds. I had also been dealing with other health issues & adrenal depletion but I'll save that for another post.

My bf bought me a ticket as a gift last Christmas to see City & Colour () in Oshawa. I was excited but also very nervous/anxious When I received the gift, I asked " Do you think I can do this?" "Of course!" he replied & was supportive & encouraging.

The day arrived and we ate at a café. I still had thoughts of not wanting to eat too much or be too full. The café was quiet so I felt comfortable. We attended the concert & had a blast! Somehow I managed to gather my strength, stay present with the music & those previous anxieties didn't control the situation. It also helped that I had the support of my partner. Btw if you haven't seen City & Colour, you must 😉🥰

That exposure therapy was successful 🙌 I was still waiting to attend the eating disorder program to help me advance with more consistency & for me to understand more about arfid.

It's important to continue searching for information & treatments for health & wellness. My advice is to find a combination of things that work for you & also be willing to try new things. Sometimes new things may take a period of time before you notice positive change.

Thanks for taking the time to read this! 🙏 If you are reading this & are struggling with your health & wellness ..... " I see you!" If you're reading this & you've made it through some struggles & are on the other side of it now..... "I see you!" Celebrating YOU! Celebrating ME! Celebrating US for continuing to move through life's challenges. Building Resiliency ✌️

Sending you love ❤️ & light ✨️

I suffered for 11 years with an eating disorder called ARFID (Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder) due to a past traumatic illness. I thought I had ptsd due to having a parasite stealing my nutrients while it camped out in my body for an entire year. It was a trial & error with dr's & a naturopathic dr until finally it passed in 2014 with the help of herbal remedies. Unfortunately I was left with a lot of after effects due to being ill for so long.

I was anxious & nervous to;

- be around a lot of people
- hear loud noises (sometimes)
- eat in front of others
- eat in restaurants
- eat large portions
- eat meat sometimes (especially chicken because that is how I got ill)
- eat foods that had strange textures
- feel sick to my stomach
-feel too full
- feel too hungry
- & smell strong smells

This posed many challenges in my life. I was responsible to care for a now 9 year old and bless his heart ❤️ he was a great supporter & very empathetic. Honestly, I know I pushed myself in order to do more so I could give him the best life.

I did my own exposure therapy to eat in restaurants. Sometimes it was successful but other times I would wretch, get anxious, leave the restaurant, visit the washroom frequently to escape or chicken out before even eating. It was horrible & extremely embarrassing!

I hid. I avoided the scenarios that would trigger all of these horrible feelings. I thought in some way that was helpful & that I was protecting myself, however it was reiterating to my brain & body that those situations weren't safe which prolonged the behaviours.

A hiatal hernia triggered me & all of these symptoms came flying at me in full force. I visited my dr, my naturopathic dr & was referred to a social worker. She ended up identifying the eating issue & consulted with the eating disorder clinic at the Peterborough Regional Health Center. I was willing to try anything to get better & live a more fulfilling life.

The wait for the program seemed to take forever but eventually I was accepted in 2024 & learned more about helping myself and why it happened in the first place. I finally felt like there was hope.

WOW! It's 2025. . . How did that happen!!?? 🤪 People often use the beginning of the new year as a marker to Reflect, Reassess & Set Goals. It's also a perfect time to Let Go of the Old & Welcome In The New. After much reflection I've decided to shed my old story of being "ill." I do not need to identify as being ill in order to take steps & implement new lifestyle changes that will guide me to optimal health & wellness. I found a few of Louise Hay's Affirmations that resonate; "Wellness is the natural state of my body. I am worthy of vibrant health & well-being. My mind & body are in perfect balance. I am a harmonious being." What are you Letting Go of? What are you Welcoming In? I'd Love ❤️ to Hear ...
