  • RECONNECT with YourSELF
    September 19, 2021
    Reconnect with Yourself When was the last time you sat quietly and listened to your breath? The last time you gave yourself a compliment? The last time to listened to your gut feeling? The last time you looked in the mirror and told yourself, “You are worthy of … ?” As we approach a new season and start the wind down of 2021, I invite you to reconnect with yourself and ask [Read More...]
  • Overcoming OBSTACLES as a MOM
    September 19, 2021
    This picture was taken a few hours after I gave birth to our twins. I’ll never forget the look on Avery’s face as she walked in my room and saw her new sisters for the first time. “Mommy there really was 2 in your belly”( she just turned 2 when the twins were born) I also will never forget the look my husband and I exchanged after this photo was taken.

  • Girls Who Golf
    April 26, 2021
    How do we get more women and girls to golf? Golfing is dominantly still a male sport. Why is that? Let’s take a look. From a history perspective, women were not welcomed on the golf course . Women may feel intimidated to be on the golf course if they have no one else to golf with and are put into a group with men. A majority of golf courses are managed and owned by men, so marketing for [Read More...]
  • Chocolate Zucchini Muffins
    November 5, 2020
    It is rare that I buy muffins from a store.  Like really rare. The amount of sugar in a lot of these is quite high, and I have just made a priority in my family to make our own so we know what ingredients are in it.  It’s hard sometimes though, especially when you see a box of granola bars for sale for $1 with a coupon… but believe me, the taste is SO MUCH better when you [Read More...]

I will be that mom who plays on the equipment and I will be that mom who plays on the equipment and chases my kids at the park. I also like to be that mom who sits and enjoys a hot coffee while my kids play ... but eventually will get tagged and end up running after my girls! But what I've learned... is that these are the memories they remember and the smiles on their faces when mom is spinning and about to throw up is priceless!

This picture was taken a few hours after I gave bi This picture was taken a few hours after I gave birth to our twins. I'll never forget the look on Avery's face as she walked in my room and saw her new sisters for the first time. "Mommy there really was 2 in your belly"( she just turned 2 when the twins were born) I also will never forget the look my husband and I exchanged after this photo was taken. It was a combination of " Holy Sh#t , now we have 3 kids to keep alive and care for AND we are now outnumbered !🤣 The self- doubt thoughts that went through my mind for months later was leading me down the PPD road. "How can I feed 2 babies at the same time? And are they eating enough?" "Am I giving all my girls the same amount of attention?" "Am I doing enough stimulation activities so they meet their age appropriate goals?" Etc. I look back at this photo often as a reminder of when I have self-doubt or think I can't overcome hard things ... because I have and can and continue to overcome obstacles in our lives. To all the moms out there who are questioning if they are being a "good enough" mom: 💜Take a big breath ✔Get rid of the expectation of who you think a mom should look like or be ✔Trust your instincts ✔Don't allow society to tell you that feeding your baby 1 way vs the other is better or that you need to have all the fancy gear or equipment at home to survive. ✔Ask for help ✔ Remember who you are and that self-care is so important ✔YOU CAN GET THROUGH THE HARD TIMES and one day you will reflect on those moments and realize how strong you truly are Hugs Mamas ... you've got this Rachelle
I love to golf! I also love that I got to golf so I love to golf! I also love that I got to golf so much this year with my girls! When you're trying to teach kids a new sport, just start with the basic skills and don't overwhelm them. Let kids play at their own pace ... they'll have MORE FUN if a new sport is introduced this way! REMEMBER ... not all sports and activities need to be competitive. Kids actually can just play for fun😉

The last time to listened to your gut feeling? The last time you looked in the mirror and told yourself, "You are worthy of ... ?" As we approach a new season and start the wind down of 2021, I invite you to reconnect with yourself and ask yourself a few questions: 💜What truly makes you happy? 💜What small changes can you do on a daily basis that will bring more joy in your life? 💜What can YOU control right now given the nature of what the world is going through? When we start listening to our hearts and allowing ourselves to live the life we're meant to live, we're going to move mountains and be more joyful in this lifetime!

Grateful I should write a book about our past yea Grateful I should write a book about our past year and a half. We spent almost every day together for a year and a half. The arguments, tears, laughter, hugs, life lessons, growing and adapting I experienced as a mom was ... let's say was an emotional roller coaster ride. But I wouldn't have had it any other way. I truly enjoyed traditionally home schooling the girls last year and will miss it grately this year. I do need to give the girls and myself some grace as they return to a new school this fall. New routines, finding new friends and still dealing with a pandemic in a school setting has increased their anxiety. What I've learnt over the years, is to communicate more with my kids AND teacher about their learning and how I CAN HELP with their continued learning at home. Learning does not stop as soon as the bell rings from school. Learning should continue all throughout their day (in a fun way too!) So to all the moms, dads and caregivers who are preparing their kids this week for back to school, be kind to yourself and to your kids. Listen to their words and hear their frustrations . Talk them through their new routine. Let them help I'm the kitchen and pack their own lunches. Most importantly ... I think anyways, ALLOW THEM TO HAVE SOME DOWN TIME after school and be mindful of how many activities you put them in this year as kids deserve to enjoy some quiet time at home after their busy day at school. It's amazing how much more kids will open up about their day when they are are calm and feeling heard and their caregivers are actually spending quality time with them. Just my food 4 thought as we heard into a busy fall! This beautiful picture was captured by the super talented and loving @lulubeephotography
Treating a client/ patient as a whole person reall Treating a client/ patient as a whole person really makes a difference in their treatment plan. This might sound like an obvious idea, but time and time again I hear stories from people who come and see me for rehab exercises tell me their therapist ( physio, chiro, massage, personal trainer, etc) only treated the obvious injury and never asked about any other aspect in their life. This. Makes. Me. Furious! Why? Yes someone can have an injury in their neck or back and treating it with modalities, stretches, strengthening can work. BUT ... did you stop and think this pain could also be resulting from stress from their job? Or anxiety in their home or social life? Or they might be feeling stuck spiritually that their body is responding by showing symptoms of back pain? Treating your clients from a holistic perspective is SO IMPORTANT and coming together with other health care professionals to come up with a health plan WITH your client is how we show them we care about their health and wellness 🥰 Who agrees? 😉 This has been my motto for my company from the beginning and always will be!
Reconnect with ourselves There's nothing like sit Reconnect with ourselves There's nothing like sitting by the water , listening to the loons and watching the waves gently crashing the shore to calm your soul and reconnect your mind and body. When I sat on those stairs at the lake back home, I cried... a big ugly cry. Partly, I was releasing emotions of finally seeing my family after almost a year. Partly I was reflecting on the past 9 years being a mom, staying home with my girls, running a business and thinking of how there will be changes this fall. Partly I was acknowledging my disconnection with myself and how this past month my mind has been spinning so fast with all the emotions that I haven't really been putting in the energy to exercise; haven't fueled my body the way I should and haven't stopped to do a lot of things just for me. After that cry, I felt peace. My mind and body reconnected. I could see more clearly. My mind just needed to slow down so my heart could catch up and reconnect. Thank. You. Mother Nature!
As we approach September and everything that invol As we approach September and everything that involves ... ✔Back to school ✔End of summer holidays ✔Start of Kids extracurricular activities ✔Work ✔Cooler weather I invite you to take a few moments to just relax and breathe ; recharge your mind and body and reflect on all the memories you created this summer. I also invite you to take a moment to think about how you and your kids felt last year going back to school and the emotions associated going back this year. What can YOU do to keep your emotions in check? What can YOU do to decrease the stress and anxiety in your household? What can YOU do for your physical and mental health and well- being? We can't control the decisions of schools or politicians, but we can control our emotions and how we react!
