Kinda chic to be a girl who hosts a silly little Sunday Swap ✨🍅🧁🧺

Truly a better Sunday does not exist.

I hosted my first ever Sunday Swap and after today, I will absolutely be doing it again. I was so blown away by everyone’s creativity, love and energy. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! I love girlhood. 🥹

I’m thinking of hosting one every season! Who’s in for a Fall swap 👀🍂

Lately, I’ve spent less time in the gym than I have in years.

At first, that really messed with me.

I think I tied so much of who I was to being “the gym girl” that when I couldn’t show up the way I always had, I started questioning if I was somehow a lesser version of myself.

Then Ty and I had one of those conversations that quietly changes the way you see things.

Taking care of yourself isn’t always a workout.

Sometimes it’s making yourself a nourishing meal. Going for a walk because it feels good, not because your watch told you to. Letting your body rest without trying to earn it. Spending time with people who make you feel like yourself. Choosing the slower option, even when everything around you tells you to keep pushing.

I always say people go through seasons too.

Right now, my season is recovery. Healing my hip. Calming my nervous system. Letting go of the idea that growth only happens when I’m doing more.

Maybe this season won’t make me “stronger” in the way I expected.

Maybe it’s teaching me there’s more than one way to take care of myself.

And I think that’s a version of strength too. 🤍

Hyrox Ottawa was NEXT LEVEL!

It was awesome to see so many athletes staying hydrated with Supplement King Street Art series bottles.

If you haven’t already, you’ll want to get your hands on one quick. They are limited while supplies last! 😤

Mid-week pulse check - I’ve missed you.

The last couple of months have definitely been some of the hardest I’ve faced. I’m used to being the one who fixes things, but lately, life’s handed me situations where “fixing” just isn’t an option—and it’s been a heavy one. These past few weeks have really tested me, forcing me to lean into acceptance, trust the process, hold faith, and do my best to keep filling my cup, even when it feels like it’s leaking from multiple areas.

To be honest, I haven’t quite felt my usual spark lately. I miss when things felt easier. But I guess that’s the point of growth, right? Comfort zones don’t help us grow. Life’s been pushing me out of mine in ways I didn’t expect. I might not have all the answers right now, but I do know that it’ll all work out the way it’s meant to.

If you’re going through it, know you’re not alone and know it will all be ok. Eventually, this will just be a chapter in your story that you’ll be able to look back on.

In the meantime, here’s some colourful yumness for the soul! Love you all too much and there ain’t nothing you can do about it. 🫶🏼🥬🥑🍎🫒🍕
