It’s been awhile since I’ve last done one of these posts. To be honest, it’s because I don’t really like to switch up my makeup or skincare. When I find something I like, I hold onto it. In fact, you’ll probably a notice a lot of the same favourites today were listed here back in

7 Healthy Paleo Desserts To Make This Summer
Summer time heat calls for light salads, bbqs, cold drinks + lighter desserts. Everything needs to be refreshing, cooling and not too heavy.

How To Workout (When You Don’t Know What You’re Doing)
I’ll be the first to admit: I didn’t always like going to gym. It wasn’t because I hated working out–I’m always up for taking a new fitness class or going to yoga or going for a hike. I just didn’t know how to workout. There was something about the gym itself that I found, well,

PB + J Vegan Milkshake
Happy July! And happy Canada day! It’s finally summer: I can show off my pasty white skin and listen to the gasps on the street from the people who just think they’ve seen a ghost. Joking aside, it’s nice to finally complain about hot it is and dream about the future that is fall. (Cause

Paleo Chocolate Coffee Banana Bread
I don’t know why it’s taken me so long to get around to this post! This recipe is so tasty (and sooo gluten-free) and I’ve been pumped to share it. And yet. I think winter has me wanting to hermit inside and drop everything that doesn’t involve being tucked into my blankets like a snug burrito.

Green Antioxidant Smoothie Bowl
Today is my birthday! Go ahead: tell me nice things about myself, I’ll wait. (Just kidding, I wait for nothing.) In all seriousness, it feels good to say that I’m now 27. I feel no different than 26, but 27 just sounds like I’m more together. More grownup. More responsible. Of course, none of these things

Why You Should Rethink Weight Loss As A New Year’s Resolution (and what to do instead)
Happy 2019! How does it feel to start another new chapter? Like a blank notebook, a clean slate, the new year has come. Okay–it may have brought its 2018 hangover with it. But all in all, it’s a promise of new things to come, new goals to reach, a new person to become. I know
