A Birthday to Remember
On the eve of my 40th Birthday, I came across an old brown leather journal from 2020. Tucked somewhere in the middle of the pages was a coffee-stained note titled, ‘Dreams for the future’. Hand-written in cursive, the black ink revealed:
Five years from now, we are living in a vibrant city, full of culture and opportunity.
By age 40, I am hosting a gathering to honor all of the incredible people in my life who elevate me.
Then it happened. I celebrated my Birthday and the launch of Infinity Inside at Darling in Edmonton, surrounded by the most incredible community of people; the sort of loving and supportive environment that causes plants to bloom and goosebumps to form on your skin. I wish I could have bottled up the magical, shimmering energy in the room that night.
I hope this video offers you a sprinkle of the same magic.

Infinity Inside
It’s my story, but it’s also yours. My hope is that it meets you where you are, reminds you of your infinite potential and inspires you to keep going.
The Painting
It was inside of myself that I rediscovered six-year-old me. Wispy hair in pigtails and green eyes sparkling, each morning she would smile at my question, and, without looking up, continue painting on a canvas.
