I'm so lucky...I catch myself thinking and then scratch that out because it's not luck.
It's hard work, taking chances on myself, building strong relationships and networks, and saying yes to opportunities and knowing things will fall into place after.
Three times a charm walking the Portuguese Camino with Worldwide Quest . I'm grateful that life's twists and turns have brought me here again 🇵🇹✨🇪🇸 (& many other places) that allow me to move and explore, and connect with some of the best humans.
When I left my comfy day job almost a decade ago, I didn't know if or how it'd all work out, but I had to trust that it would, or I would figure something out
I liked my job, but didn't love it.
I had great coworkers, but the daily grind didn't fill up my soul.
I had awesome benefits and stability, but somehow that wasn't enough.
The single thing that had the biggest impact for me was getting out of my routine, changing my scenery, and immersing myself with other like-minded people.
It's why i love active travel, it's hard to return the same person as you left.
Looking for something to give you some time away from the ordinary? Connect with nature, remove yourself from life's responsibilities and let someone else take care of the details.
I have a few spots left on my Japanese active adventure in May 2027. Send me a dm and I'll send you the details.

A smattering of summer things that sum up '26, which of course zipped by in the wink of an eye.
After months of late sunsets, outdoor adventures, roadtrips, lax schedules, September is a natural progression back to routine, structure, and refocusing on what we want out of life (or at least the next 3 months).
Feeling like you need some redirection in your health, life or both? Reach out and let's chat.
Pausing for a moment and considering which way I wanted my life to go was the biggest gift I've given myself.

Did you know less than 3% of women can do reps of pull-ups?! 💪🏻💪🏻
And to think I spent years worrying about my soft stomach.
So much energy spent on trying to be smaller, when I could've just gotten stronger.
And for the record, I weigh more than when I couldn't do pull ups. I didn't need to lose weight, I needed to gain muscle & stay consistent.
I'll take this over a size smaller pants any day 💅🏻

I've led over 20 Health Retreats 🥹, and I've noticed a trend in the comments and feedback I get from participants, usually towards the end of the week (or weekend).
I feel truly touched that this is what stands out to people from my Retreats. 🙏🏻💕
If you've been to a retreat and this resonates with you, please drop a 💕 emoji below.👇🏻👇🏻
When I first thought...maybe people will want to come away for a weekend with me and do fun active things, when le eating delicious food, with other like-minded souls, I hoped everyone would feel welcomed and accepted...but to hear people tell me that, unprompted, is so special 💫
Need a getaway but want someone else to be in charge for once? 🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️ I'm your gal.
Let's go gallivanting around Japan and enjoy quiet coastal paths, sleepy fishing villages, enjoy amazing seafood and Japanese specialties, and of course soak in evening onsens.
Sign up by the end of July to take advantage of the early bird discount 🇯🇵👘🥾🍣🌲🌊

A lil story time that links to your goals (the ones you have quietly buried in the back of your head).

3 or maybe 4 years ago. I went to the Eastside Culture Crawl and immediately fell in love with Amy Stewart art. I took one of her pamphlets and put it on my vision board because I'd love to one day own one...even a small original piece.

The next year back at the Culture Crawl, I went to Amy's studio and she was there, I said hi and told her "one day I'm going to own one of your big pieces". She graciously smiled and said 'I hope so!'.

Fast forward another year or two and through referrals and word of mouth I started training a few people linked into the arts community. I mentioned to Crissy Arseneau how much I love Amy's art and she told me she was good friends with her and connected us via email.
Now I have one of her original pieces above my couch and I'm in awe that putting that paper cutout of her art years ago on my vision board, has come to life 💫
Here's the thing, if you don't tell anyone what you want, or what you're working towards, how can anyone help you get there?

You don't have to know how it's all going to come together, but you do have to write it down, say it out loud, tell a friend.

Want to be healthier, stronger, climb Mt. Kilimanjaro, or trek in Nepal...but keeping that secret to yourself?

I think you'll have much better results if you let it out 😏

I'm always available for a sounding board, feel free to DM me and tell me what you want or are working towards, for the end of '26, the next 5 years, or just at some point.

At this point you can't afford to NOT come 🇯🇵🥾🌳
This is going to be one special adventure, exploring the north east coastal area in the Tohoku region.
Small fishing villages, quiet coastal paths, stunning ocean views, immersion in local culture, quiet post walk onsen chill time, opportunities for self reflection, and of course connecting with other rad like-minded humans.
It's an investment in your self, and the type of life and memories you want to have 💕✨
Join me next May in Japan.
Details at the link below, or comment 🇯🇵 below and I'll send them your way.

What is it? And why do you want to explore with me?
🇯🇵 the Michinoku Coastal Trail, opened in 2019 is a 1000+km trail.... don't worry, we'll be walking pieces of it (5-12km per day).
It highlights the rugged 'Alps of the sea' on the Sanriku Coast.
This route is known for 'trail magic' 💫✨, special encounters with local people, and is a great way to experience Japan away from the busy cities.
Spots are booking up on this unique trip. Click the link in my bio for more information or shoot me a message and I'll forward on the details.
It's going to be a magical travel experience.

We travel a little differently around here.
Join me on my next active adventure in the beautiful Tohoku region in Japan.
We’ll hike sections of the Michinoku Coastal Trail, moving through dramatic cliffs, quiet fishing villages, and forested coastline. Evenings are for unwinding in local onsens.
Because I like a little variety, we'll also have a morning stand up paddle session and kayaking experience.
Several cultural experiences will be sprinkled throughout the week, as well as a journaling workshop for those who like to use travel to ground, connect and plan what's next (check the link below for full itinerary & accommodation details).
If you travel to experience, instead of escape, and would go nuts sitting by a pool for a week, this might be right up your alley.
Tag a travel friend you'd like to join you! 🇯🇵🥾⛩️🌊

We're training for life around here 💪🏻💫🌎⛰️
You do you, but I'll take a strong and capable body as I age, that allows me to continue exploring this incredible world of ours, over a restrictive diet and ab definition any day 💁🏻‍♀️
Throw a 💪🏻 below if you're with me 😏
