Local Love List-1

International Women’s Day

International Women’s Day is this Sunday and I’m so thrilled to be hosting a celebration at West Ed!

Local Love List-2

More Women’s Day Fun

WEM is also hosting two more Women’ Day events leading up to Sunday. A YEG Boss Babes Mixer goes tonight and Sex and The City Trivia Night is tomorrow (Saturday, March 7) where you have a chance to win a pair of Sarah Jessica Parker ‘Hello Lover’ shoes! Details on both events here!

Local Love List-3

Mini Rockstars Class

BackBeat Studio has expanded it’s Little Beats Program! You can now sign your little rocker up for classes on Saturdays AND Thursday. Plus, they’re out with camps for July and August! Little Beats is a fun, group-based music class that gives preschoolers the chance to explore and develop a love of music. In each session, they get to play the five core instruments of a rock band: guitar, bass, keyboard, vocals and drums. They’ll learn basic rhythm concepts, vocal techniques and experience what it means to play and perform music with other kids by being part of they’re own noise rock band. Check out class times and prices here.

Edmonton Local-5

Outfitter Tent Dinner

Another unique dining experience to pass along. You can enjoy a six-course dinner in a wood-fire heated outfitter tent at Cafe Bicyclette. Seating for Sugar Shack dinners starts at 6pm – kicking off March 13 and 14th and run every weekend from March 13-April 18. Reserve your spot here.

Even when Wyatt was littler and would sometimes get rejected at the park when he asked to play, it would shatter my heart. 😫

I was bullied in high school pretty bad. My aunt stepped in one time and regulated some mean girls. Shared the (now) hilarious story on my Stories.❤❤

Wyatt's cute tee is from @deuxpardeuxkids, I'm wearing my @smashtess sweetheart roper and that heart print out is @justinema's free printable Kindness Challenge! (Looks like I have some catching up to do)! 🤣

I know what each person needs varies, but for me, getting alone time to walk the dogs has been key in managing my anxiety and stress (especially this past year).

I believe investing in mental health initiatives is more important than ever. I’m so happy to be partnering with @atbfinancial for a really meaningful campaign called #ATBUp.

Each weekday from March 1-12, one more simple, FUN social challenge will be presented. When you complete and share on social using #ATBUp, @atbfinancial will donate $1 to @mentalhealthab!

I’ll be heading up two challenges—and including Moses 🐶 and Monroe 🐶. I hope you’ll join me! 😊💛
