I’d been craving a book like this for some time now.
Powerful and raw, Cheryl Strayed’s experience while hiking the Pacific Crest Trail is truly remarkable. Read More
How do I want to feel?
A month ago today, I turned 39 and in these past few weeks, I’ve started a new job, moved to a new city (part-time) and launched a new project.
Side note : if you know any French speaking teachers who could benefit from a more balanced work-home life, send them my way @enseignanteequilibree on Instagram and on Facebook!
Strangely though, while this may seem like a lot, I feel like I’ve accomplished nothing at all this past month and I can’t seem to shake this feeling. Read More
Happiness is…
“Happiness isn’t something you remember; it’s something you experience.”
This was my fortune following one of our many amazing meals while on vacation in Walt Disney World a few weeks back.
Just a few moments prior to opening my cookie, I had been thinking of how I wasn’t taking enough pictures during our trip. I mean, I had just taken a bite out of a spectacular dessert without snapping a picture of it first! Knowing how much I love desserts, how could I not be taking pictures of each of them?! Read More
Book review 8 – Ten Needles
This book has a lot of heart.
Written as a collaboration, Martin Latulippe helps a young boy send the world a very important message. The book is short, yet so raw. Read More
Why a trip to Walt Disney World even if you don’t have kids is a must-do!
As I write this, my husband and I are three days away from a glorious trip to Walt Disney World, but as you read it, we are THERE! We’ve been looking forward to this trip for the past few months because we will be celebrating my husband’s 40th birthday on August 22nd. Read More
Looking for Signs…and Cake!
Last year, I got an unusual cake request : a groom wanted a periodic table made out of cupcakes.
At first, my intuition said “Heck, no!” and I always go with my gut, but I asked the bride to let me think about it for a week or two. After all, the wedding was over a year away. Read More
Book review 7 – Light is the New Black
Simply put, I ❤️ this book.
This is a book for anyone who feels like they have a bigger purpose in life, but struggle to figure out exactly what they are meant to do.
This is a manual for lightworkers.
“Follow what lights you up, and you’ll light up the world” – Rebecca Campbell
It’s that simple.
Unsure about this whole lightworker concept? Read “Letter to a Lightworker” on pages 33 and 34 of the book and if it resonates with you, you are a lightworker and this book is for you.
This is the book that you will read when you need guidance. This is the book that you will read when you need clarity. This is the book that you will read when you need a good kick in the pants to get back on your path when fear and doubt start to creep in.
I will definitely read it over and over again and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Discovering our Roots
So once again, I didn’t post on my usual every second Sunday schedule because I was on another road trip! Do you want to guess where? Read More
Add a Little Foo to your Life
I usually post new blogs on Sundays, but this week, I spent my Sunday in a car on my way to Québec City to see the Foo Fighters play an epic outdoor concert.
This was sort of a last minute idea (wait, does six weeks count as last minute?) and it was a surprise for my husband. At first, I wasn’t going to tell him until a few days before the show. I even contacted his boss to make sure he could have two days off without him knowing. Sneaky, right? Read More
Book Review 6 – The Four Agreements
I bought this book in 2012 and as much as I wish I’d read it sooner, I know that I needed to read it now. Read More
