How to Get Unstuck

As a person who thrives when they have a routine, I tend to have trouble taking a step back to fully acknowledge when I am stuck in a rut or not challenging myself or not making time to do the things that bring me joy. Falling into a rut is something I have talked about on my blog before. The advice I gave may still be relevant today, but becoming unstuck has become a more evolved process for me; over the years, I think we all have a tendency to get overwhelmed with the idea of adulting and we go into survival mode and start to distance ourselves from creating…

My Trader Joe’s Shopping List

As a Canadian, hopping over to Trader Joes is such a treat. It can be a daunting task, there is so my selection and it is hard to know what to buy. As a Trader Joes expert taste tester, I have read up on all the cult items, crowd favourites and hidden gems and tried them myself so you don't have to. To be completely honest, there are a few items that don't live up to the hype, and quite a few items that I can't live without. Check out my complete guide to shopping at Trader Joes and the items I keep on my shopping list.

I put together a list of some splurges and some steals that I find absolutely adorable for Valentine's Day.

Travel Guide for Croatia

Croatia has been on my list of places to visit since 2013. I was dying to go on Sail Croatia even though I had no sailing experience. I wanted to go island hopping, check out the historic cities and swim in the Adriatic sea. At the time I also wanted to be part of the party crew that got to wear a Croatia sailing hat. Fast forward five years later, too old to jump abroad a party boat, I finally booked my trip to Croatia. Travel planning has always been a passion of mine. I enjoy making a full itinerary, finding good places to eat and making sure I get to see…
