Join us tomorrow for the second session of EFT International's year-long Meeting of Minds: The Thriving Practice series!

We are absolutely thrilled to welcome Bruno Sade, an Accredited Certified Advanced EFT Practitioner and Matrix Reimprinting Practitioner with a background in mental health as a licensed clinical psychologist in Argentina.

Our discussion with Bruno will centre around the theme of sustainability as he shares how he has aligned his marketing strategy with this key principle in both his practice and lifestyle.

A central aspect of Bruno’s professional journey has been the integration of ongoing reflection into his work. For him, writing has served as a valuable tool for deepening his clinical thinking while also providing a sustainable, values-aligned approach to visibility and marketing. Instead of relying on hype or sales-driven tactics, he focuses on sharing his unique perspective and creating environments where potential clients feel safe, understood, and unpressured.

I am particularly excited to hear Bruno's insights on the often pressurized topic of 'generalist versus niche', as he shares the benefits he has discovered by not pursuing a specific or specialized niche, highlighting the value of reaching a broader audience and client base.

If you are an EFT International member, you are not going to want to miss this upcoming session! We go live at 6PM UK Time tomorrow, Friday, March 20th.

Sharing because I want to see this cute face on my grid every dang day! 🤗🥲

It has been one whole month since our little buddy crossed over the rainbow bridge, and it still doesn’t feel real some days.

The expectation of seeing his sleeping face in the window when we pull into the driveway. The way I look in the direction of his bed when I come into the living room or up the stairs. The complete change in our morning and evening routines.

My brain has yet to fully compute the reality that he is not here and there is constant heartbreak as we experience a new normal without our favourite old man. But he was and is absolutely worth the heartache.

In reflecting on the many gifts and lessons we have learned from Wrigley, one of the biggest has been patience. In his last year, we had to learn to go at Wrigley’s new pace, and that was a real adjustment. We also had to learn to get comfortable with being uncomfortable, and that included talking about death and what was best for Wrigley, not for us.

Individually, my partner and I both gave Wrigley permission to go when it was his time – neither one of us wanted to have to make that decision and take one minute or second away from him if he wasn’t ready to go.

I asked him to stay until Christmas, and he gave us an extra 30 days. I wish we had more time, but his body didn’t have it in him.

I don’t know if this is a female thing, AD[H]D thing, or a Candace thing (or all of the above), but I don’t think I realized how much purpose I found in being his (sometimes primary) caregiver, especially at the end. It was a joy to love and be loved by Wrigley.

The heartbreak is real.

The grief is real.

But so is the immense love, gratitude, and appreciation to have had Wrigley for as long as we did.

Life is a little less colourful lately, but that’s okay. 🌈⭐️🐶

Ps. Thank you for snapping these photos when you did. 🤎🤍🖤

EFT International's Meeting of Minds (MoM) 2026 web series, The Thriving Practice Edition launches on Friday, February 20th @ 6PM UK Time, with our first guest, Advanced, Certified and Accredited Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) Practitioner, Kathleen Weber. I am honoured to be one of two hosts this year alongside fellow EFTi Advanced Practitioner, Naghma Qureshi.

We all know, one strategy does NOT fit all when launching and growing a successful EFT practice (or any business)!

Each month, we will be talking to a different EFT Practitioner, getting a glimpse into their mindset, strategies, and personal journeys that have contributed to their success. This series goes beyond generic, cookie-cutter "how to launch a business"; it showcases the unique experiences of remarkable practitioners from around the world that will surely inspire new insights and thoughtful conversations.

This webinar series is ONLY available to EFT International members. To register, log in through eftinternational.org > Members Area > Community > Meeting of Minds Series > Sign-Up Here Button – and remember to save the event in calendar!

We hope you will join us for these inspiring monthly conversations designed to support EFT practitioners in building thriving, sustainable, and fulfilling practices. As your hosts, Naghma and I are looking forward to leading these discussions, which are sure to spark new ideas, foster learning, and strengthen our community of practitioners and professionals.

See you Friday!

❤️ Candace

The Board of Directors needs your support for this year's national initiative, The Push Up Challenge (.ca )

"Since 2024, over 120,000 Canadians have participated in The Push-Up Challenge and together, we've raised over $6 million dollars for the Canadian Mental Health Association."

Dollars raised go to essential mental health programming for individuals and families in our community including support groups, employment and vocational programming, and counseling services. These programs are offered free and are live changing and life saving.

The Push-Up Challenge is more than just getting active and doing push-ups. This initiative is about supporting folks who need our support. The rates of mental illness are staggering in our country and we all likely know someone who is struggling or has struggled in the past. This person might be a friend, loved one, co-worker...or you. Everyone deserves support and free access to that support, including you. ❤️

Please support me and the CMHA Board team!

Ps. We are in a friendly competition with the CMHA Regina Board and we CAN NOT let them win!

Continuing our focus of the parasympathetic nervous system (PSNS) also known as the 'rest-digest-repair' system...

Together, we are going to explore not only the biological benefits of rest but also the possibilities for a deeper connection to Self that includes greater access to creativity, curiosity, connection, and joy!

See you Wednesday! ✌️✌️✌️

Coming up!

I am so excited to hang out with such a great crew!

"Reclaiming our right to rest becomes more than just an act of self-care; it becomes a form of rebellion against a culture that promotes self-exploitation." -

Rest in the face of diet culture is a rebellion against an oppressive system that wants us rooted in shame, constantly anxious and exhausted, and preoccupied with attaining unrealistic beauty standards at the cost of our well-being.

Rest in the face of diet culture is a clear 'NO!' to corporations that prey on and profit from folks' insecurities through diet/fitness trends, products, supplements, pharmaceuticals, etc.

Rest in the face of diet culture is a reclamation of power, connection to Self, connection with our beautiful-as-they-are bodies, and autonomy over our health and well-being, including mental health.

See you Wednesday
Alumni crew!

A war on Indigenous Peoples and interdependent cultures is a war on traditional emotional regulation practices and generational well-being.

I was recently invited to speak and share tools at the 2025 AWASIS Indigenous Educators Conference. In my general conversations with organizers and Elders, I learned so much about Indigenous dances and practices that were used for emotional regulation and mental and physical well-being.

In Indigenous cultures, every ritual and every tradition has a deep purpose of supporting the individual and the collective - this is something understood by the Elders and passed on through generations via teachings.

One Elder shared with me the purpose of the Indigenous grass dance. This dance is beautiful in that the footwork and motions of the body mimic swaying grass. It is rhythmic with intentional movements and steps, some bilateral - requiring the dancer to match their exact movements from the right to the left, and left to the right.

This grass dance is also deeply spiritual and connects Indigenous people to their culture, land and, ancestors - something non-Indigenous folks likely wouldn't understand as mere observers.

From a psychosensory/somatic perspective, this dance is more than just an ode to Mother Nature. This dance regulates and grounds the body while strengthening neural networks in the right and left hemisphere of the brain. This dance is healing. This dance is wellness.

And to think, colonialism almost wiped out these People and their traditions. What a loss to our society today. What a loss to the world.

We have so much to learn from ancient people and cultures.

The strength and resilience of Indigenous folks is a direct reflection of the depth, complexity, and beauty of their culture and how deep their roots are planted in this world.

When I think about the continuation of colonialism in Canada and places like Africa and Palestine, I wonder if we will ever learn.

We all suffer at the hands of colonialism. We all lose.

What is at stake today is too important to be quiet.

I stand against colonialism. I stand with Palestine. I stand against the genocide of any people.

In 2022, I did a presentation for Women in Leadership titled "Lifting Others Up Through Authentic Connecting."

Three years later, as I was cleaning out my Adobe cloud, this presentation lay dormant, but it feels very relevant right now.

With the noise of news, political and economic chaos, and a genocide live streaming on our phones, what I notice for myself, I'm leaning into my people and community.

I'm staying grounded in connection with folks who keep it real, are looking inward, who are genuine in their care and concern for themselves, their community, humanity, and this planet.

And I'm trying to do the same, which also means I'm leaning into my tools and nervous system work.

Nervous system work isn't about being calm. It's about creating capacity within yourself so you can show up for the people, places, and things you are passionate about. I can't afford to hit burnout. My body deserves much more than the bare minimum of care right now. As does yours.

Nervous system work isn't about YOU thriving. Self-regulation is taught through co-regulation, humans have always been wired for connection and community. We do this work, pouring into ourselves so we can pour into others. We thrive in community.

Nervous system work isn't about avoiding triggers. It's about resilience/flexibility within our system, so when you inevitably get triggered, you can choose an appropriate response instead of feeling like a slave to old patterns.

I think more than ever, a lot of us are seeking something deeper than just the surface bu****it of life.

We want change. We want our default mode to be a mix of curiosity and joy.

We want to feel purposeful, but not for capitalistic gains.

We want our energy and actions to foster something that enriches our souls and proples us out of bed in the AM. Something bigger than us that includes all of us.

We want to restore the sacredness of life and the genuine authenticity of human to human interactions.

I want to remove the word stranger from my vocabulary and see everyone as my equal - a brother or sister, distant relative, and fellow human being. That's what I want. That's what I'm working towards. ❤️

I have come to really cherish my time with the alumni crew. 💜💜💜

At every session, folks show up ready to listen, engage, and interact with themselves in new ways.

It is not lost on me that the experiential sessions I host very often require people to step outside their comfort zone - this can be especially dysregulating. But the trust, honesty, and transparency within the group is a true reflection of the safety established by BridgePoint in their programming. This makes all the difference in the world when it comes to recovery - it REALLY does.

What a gift it is to be able to be invited back for another evening filled with fun, learning, and self-regulation.

Thank you, BridgePoint and the alumni crew. See you Wednesday!

Play is often thought of as being reserved for just children which is so not true! As adults we greatly benefit from play and being playful - research supports this.

Play:

°Boosts our overall sense of well-being including our sense of hope and approaching life with curiosity and excitement.

°Helps folks cope with stress and is useful in creating healthy coping strategies. Play brings out joy and pleasure, the perfect combination to ease stress and induce a more relaxed state.

°Boosts mental and physical health with improved mood, increase in motivation, and feeling energized.

Play also helps us learn new things and is the perfect ingredient to help us explore and navigate our inner world, including finding out new things about ourselves.

I am very excited to put our creativity and play to good use this Wednesday with the alumni crew for the upcoming Deep Dive.

I am always so humbled to be asked to gather and share tools with this amazing group of humans. Huge thanks to for opening this space and letting me share in the beautiful community you have created through your programming and services.

Cultivating self-acceptance and self-love is an internal and individual process that is best explored amongst peers in a supportive environment. And that is exactly what this Deep Dive community/series creates - safety. What a gift.

Imagine the lens we viewed ourselves through was the same as our 'ride or die' best friend, a doting grandparent, or our beloved four-legged fur baby. How would this change our internal dialogue? The way we show up for ourselves? The trust we have in who we are and what we can accomplish? How would this change our recovery journey?

Truly, the world opens, and the sky is the limit when we love ourselves the way we deserve to be loved. And we all deserve to be loved unconditionally and wholeheartedly.

See you Wednesday BridgePoint crew! 💃💃💃
