I head to the airport tonight for 4 weeks of yoga teacher training in Bali (someone pinch me!) and there is so much I want to share with you. I want to tell you about the e-mail response I got from my boss when I told her that I got accepted into the training that …

I glanced back at the previous highlights of 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011 and laughed. I was in awe of how things have changed each year in such big ways in merely one celestial rotation! I love writing these posts each year as a way to document the reflection that happens during this season – …

Last night, we cracked open a bottle of red and opened up our notebooks to jam about our session at the upcoming UBC Student Leadership Conference. We thought back over the last year about who were were and who we are now. We shared our gratitude for the boys that have come and gone, and …

Over the holiday season, I am working with our Metrotown Store team out in Burnaby. I love that team (holy smokes they are rad). However, I dislike the commute out to Burnaby. I have utter respect for those people who live more than 30 minutes away from where they work. What is clear to me …
