  1. I get into conversations all the time with other parents who don't always see eye to eye with us. I am secure in my parenting strategies - can you relate? #raisingdaughters #parenting2024 #growingupmindful #gratitudeattitude #intuitiveeating #girlmath

  3. September 1999. I was starting 8th grade. I had spent my babysitting money on a copy of Seventeen magazine. "Flattering Fashion Choices", "Best Jeans for your Butt", and "Look Pretty Without Spending Any Money!" were amongst the articles lurking inside. I was ready to learn the tips and tricks. From as early on as I can remember, society's beauty rules were enforced at every turn. Larger bodies need darker colours, it's *slimming*. Larger faces need voluminous, long hair because it's *slimming*. The subtext? If you aren't thin, you're ugly. I've grown to vehemently reject this conditioning of my own understanding of beauty (because the weight of one's body is nothing more than the sum of their gravitational pull on the Earth and is the least interesting thing about anyone). So why was I still holding onto my long, (dyed) black hair? It wasn't making me happy... Today I ask my stylist to give me the style and colour I actually wanted, not what I thought would make me prettier/thinner/trendier. A big fuck you to all the years I stifled my style because I tried to fold myself into a box that was never intended to accomodate me. Best believe I'm still bejeweled 👸 @blushhairstudiocochrane (not gifted, discounted, or paid content)

  1. . 5 years ago today I lost something I loved.  It led me to something better.    5yrs ago today, after being locked out for over a year, I got officially evicted from my gym. No warning & no “Plan B”. Just another casualty of a global pandemic and a chapter of my life that closed overnight.    That old gym was a humble little space but it was everything to me. 900 sq ft hidden away in the back of an old hockey rink. No frills. Just iron, sweat, & an obsessive commitment to the work…and yet, somehow, in that tiny room something legendary was built. In 2009 I opened that little gym while I restarted my business & in many ways also my life. Over the years hundreds of elite professional athletes came through that space not because of how it looked, but because of what happened inside it. The workouts were legendary and although the aesthetics were rough the vibe was immaculate. It’s also where @biosteelsports was launched, built from nothing into a household name right there between the squat racks.    I’d be lying if I said losing it didn’t hurt. That gym was my second home (& in the early days sometimes my first one). I spent countless hours there. But sometimes the universe forces one door shut because you never would have walked through a new one on your own.     That disruption pushed me to find my new space & launch @paragenixsystems & I couldn’t be more proud of what we’ve built. A real system with a real team reflecting 3 decades at the highest level of this game. The new space & team have allowed us to finally operate at the scale this work has always deserved and our program offerings have taken off in ways never possible in that 900ft² room.    Adversity rarely looks like an opportunity in the moment but it almost always is… IF you choose for it to be so.    For a long time I looked back through a painful lens but now I look back only with gratitude & pride.     Thank you to everyone who was part of the first chapter & a special thank you to our amazing Paragenix Team writing the new one every day - especially @mike_carneiro74 & @toronto_pete Day 1 crew still going strong 17yrs later 👊🏻

  2. . Last week I was as in Buffalo for the NHL combine. Every year, 18-year-olds enter the NHL draft process - scouted, scored, weighed, measured, and interviewed by teams looking for any edge in evaluating their potential. The NHL Scouting Combine puts the top prospects through a battery of physical fitness tests and a gauntlet of team interviews, the results of which can shape their entire future. For those young players involved it is equal parts exciting and anxiety inducing. Yesterday morning, while standing in my gym watching two athletes I’ve known since they were teenagers, I was reminded of exactly why this matters. The NHL combine has come a long way since the first year I attended almost 25 years ago. The NHL has done a great job of trying to make the tests more specific and relevant and the process does provide teams with some insights they might not otherwise have had regarding where these players are at…but what those numbers can’t tell you is who they could become. Tom Wilson at 18 was 6’3”, 204 lbs. Still a big kid by anyone’s standard but far from the 6’4”, 230 lbs specimen he is today. Mason Marchment at 18 wasn’t even playing Major Junior hockey and was 6’3”, 185lbs. Not on anyone’s radar. Not invited to the Combine. Went undrafted entirely. He’s now 6’5”, 215 lbs. Two inches taller and 25 lbs heavier and in the middle of a great NHL career. The body had other plans. Physical development takes time. Years of consistent work in the gym and a genuine commitment to nutrition can compound quietly in the background if you let them. Of course, it also helps when nature decides to show up to the party. Be very careful about putting a final stamp on an 18-year-old athlete. Especially when we are talking about physical qualities. The body has a long runway, and development is never a straight line. Just some good for thought…

  3. ⁣ I’m incredibly proud to announce the opening of the Ottawa Senators’ new state-of-the-art medical and high-performance facility. This project wouldn’t have been possible without the vision and support of our owner, Michael Andlauer, and president, Steve Staios. Their dedication to creating a best-in-class space for our athletes is truly inspiring. A special shout-out to our Senior VP of Hockey Operations, Dave Poulin, who was the de facto project manager and my personal psychotherapist every time a construction deadline was approaching!⁣ ⁣ While we’re excited to showcase the latest in strength equipment and sports science technology, the real strength of our team is the people who bring the space to life and the beauty of this facility lies in its ability to foster collaboration between those people. ⁣ It was designed to maximize integration between our medical and strength & conditioning staffs, ensuring that all aspects of athlete care are aligned to enhance performance.⁣ ⁣ Functionality is at the heart of what we do here—every inch of the space is tailored for real athletic training, with a focus on developing speed and power. ⁣ We also made sure that the facility’s design included strong branding and a connection to the city of Ottawa, reflecting the pride we have in this team and its vibrant community.⁣ ⁣ Designing performance facilities is my version of arts and crafts. I take great pride in designing and building bespoke spaces that meet the specific needs of the client. I also think that in the case of a professional sports team (And I am admittedly more than a little biased here) the gym is (or should be) the most important room in the facility and warrants that level of attention to detail. This project was an opportunity to shape a space that not only serves a purpose but also elevates the way our athletes train and recover as we usher in a new era of Ottawa Senators Hockey. #SensNation #HeartOverHype

  1. Thank you, God, for giving me this moment, that I will treasure for the rest of my life. No love in this world can compare to the love a father has for their daughter(s), and the love a daughter has for their father. So pure and angelic.   I am blessed to have you as my Dad, no words can ever describe the warmth, affection, strength, confidence you give to me (and my sisters).  You make my hard days feel so light, and my good days even better. When I am going through a difficult time, I just need to hear your uplifting voice. You are the wind beneath my wings, my real-life superhero. You and Mom both, the best role models my sisters and I will ever have. Thank you for everything you do for us.   For those of you who have an estranged relationship with your mother/father, remember there are millions of people who would do anything to bring their parents back. Children are all parents have in their life, so love them fiercely. ♥️♥️♥️

  1. When I was in my 20s I remember being scared to turn 30…. Until I flipped the script. I’m 31 & I fully believe that the “decline” only happens if you let it. Age is just a number & if you keep showing up for yourself and making yourself a priority. It only gets better. When you take care of you, you become the best version of yourself… for yourself & all of those who you love around you. . Cheers to the power era 💪🏼 #thisis30 #thirtyflirtyandthriving #takecareofyourbody #stengthtrainingforwomen #fitnessover30

  2. Most people have no clue about this ingredient… CARRAGEENAN — a common additive used to thicken and stabilize many dairy and non-dairy products. It’s a derivative of red seaweed which would make one think it’s ’clean or healthy.’ But here’s the truth most people miss 👇🏻 —• Carrageenan has been linked to gut inflammation, bloating, and even damage to the intestinal lining in animal studies. —• Some research shows it can trigger an immune response similar to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The Food and Drug Administration still approves this ingredient. But in 2016, the National Organic Standards Board voted to remove carrageenan from their approved list. This means foods made with carrageenan can no longer be labeled “USDA organic. So why is it still used? 🤔 Because it makes your products look “creamy” and shelf-stable — at the cost of your gut health. No thanks.🙂‍↔️ Look out for: ⚠️ Carrageenan ⚠️ “Seaweed-derived thickener” ➡️ Found in: nut milks, ice cream, cottage cheese, sour cream, whipping cream & more. Clean labels matter. Your gut deserves better. Follow me for more label-reading hacks and ingredient truth bombs that help you shop smart and steward your health wisely! @iam.kaylalucas Let’s detox, discern & do wellness differently 🌱 #carrageenan #guthealthmatters #foodlabeltruth #wellnesstips #hiddeningredients #dairyalternatives #healthfreedom #naturalwellness #detoxyourlife #ingredientawareness #holistichealth #momlife #canadianwellness #readyourlabels #toxinfreejourney

  3. Did you know your pickles 🥒 might be hiding THIS toxic ingredient? Let’s talk about POLYSORBATE 80 — an emulsifier added to keep foods creamy, smooth, and shelf-stable… but the side effects aren’t so smooth. Here’s what the research says: ⚠️ Linked to gut inflammation & microbiome disruption ⚠️ Increases intestinal permeability (“leaky gut”) ⚠️ May negatively impact fertility (animal studies) ⚠️ Can cross the blood-brain barrier ⚠️ Associated with immune dysfunction It’s FDA-approved — but that doesn’t mean it’s safe. Just because it’s allowed in food doesn’t mean it belongs in your body. ❌ 10 common foods where Polysorbate 80 hides: Pickles 🥒 Ice cream 🍦 Processed cheese 🧀 Protein shakes & powders 🥤 Store-bought cakes & donuts 🍩 Coffee creamers ☕ Chewing gum Sauces & dressings 🥗 Packaged puddings Nutritional supplements 💊 It’s even used in some pharmaceuticals, 💉 eye drops 👁️, and cosmetics 💄 Bottom line? Your gut, hormones, and brain are too valuable to gamble with mystery additives. Don’t be fooled by a crunchy cucumber — always flip it over. Follow @iam.kaylalucas for more bold truth bombs, label-reading hacks, and wellness info your doctor won’t tell you. #polysorbate80 #GutHealth #readlabels #HormoneHealth #ToxicIngredients #FoodAdditiveAlert #ingredientsmatter #NaturalHealth #CleanEatingJourney #HealthFreedomFighter #TheMoreYouKnow

  2. I fkn hate being in front of the camera. My dreams of being an actress and subsequent rockstar were derailed by this. (Not at all by the fact I can't sing or play an instrument with any talent...) @truffleimages made it easy (I slapped my edit on this so it could match the rest of the site if we used colour) I might act confident but once you get to know me, you realize everything bad you can say about me - I already say about myself. I'm a work in progress.

  3. Recently, I've kept silent about my mental health battles because every time I open up, it feels like people are dissecting my words, trying to decipher if I'm targeting someone or a specific situation. I'm aware that the more candid I am, the more it affects opportunities like gigs or tours. Thankfully, my current team comprehends that my tough days are transient, but I strongly believe the music industry lacks sufficient support and empathy for those who struggle mentally. When push comes to shove, many people are all talk and fail to follow through when it truly gets tough.
 The harsh reality is that I lived 23 years undiagnosed with a mental illness that breeds loneliness, worthlessness, and a fear of abandonment. It's a rollercoaster of extreme emotions, even with therapy, medication, and support, disappearing often seems appealing. Despite years of treatment and self-help efforts, my childhood experiences leave me feeling worthless and burdensome. Those who were meant to shield me turned a blind eye to my obvious struggles, while others exited because my depression was too much to bear. Mental illness isn't a choice; I'd give anything to wake up feeling "normal." I've witnessed people distance themselves from friends in pain, only to feign grief online when those friends lose their internal battles. We're not trying to be intentionally overwhelming; there's a biochemical basis to mental illness affecting 1 in 5 people. From debilitating anxiety to severe depression, neurotypical individuals struggle to comprehend our inability to simply "shake it off." Compassion is crucial; abandoning us may seem easy, but we're worth sticking around for. I perpetually feel inadequate, despite professional success. The fear of being replaced haunts me, rejection triggers spirals of self-blame. Work and future plans keep me moving forward, but sometimes it's not enough. Mental health struggles defy easy explanations. I want you to know you’re not alone. It’s okay to not be okay. As my beautiful friend @michelletreacyofficial repeats daily “everything will be ok in the end, and if it's not ok it's not the end" #worldmentalhealthmonth

  1. Suicide Prevention Month I never thought I’d share this story but l feel like i’m finally ready. Looking at this picture of me back in 2017, you wouldn’t think anything was wrong, l was living with my best friend and his family, playing hockey in a place l loved, and l had the best hockey season in my whole life. But deep down l was broken inside... l was constantly fighting with my own brain and l spent countless nights awake thinking if it was even worth it. I moved to Prince Albert and instantly didn’t really feel accepted and l had so much anxiety every time l walked into a classroom. l didn’t show it because l felt like l would be considered weak because “boys aren’t supposed to be sad”. It came to a point where I thought so low of myself and l didn’t feel like anyone cared if l died. To be honest l didn’t even think l was gonna make it to my 17th Birthday. Then suicidal thoughts came in, and it lead to self harm, which lead to me telling friends l was thinking of ending my own life... but thankfully l was talked out of it by my closest peers and I’m so happy they were there for me. I’m so blessed to say l had an amazing support system and l was able to talk to some of my closest friends and get counselling to get better. I truly believe you’re never alone in your battle with mental health, don’t be afraid to speak up ❤️ I tagged some of the people I can’t thank enough for potentially saving my life back in 2017, I love you all ❤️❤️

  1. The best is never over, The best is yet to come. There’s always something wonderful, To keep us struggling on.   There’s always compensation, For every cross we bare A simple consolation Hidden well somewhere.   Ends are new beginnings, As one day you will see, The best is never over, The best is yet to be. It was so lovely talking to Dad about this earlier on. He remembers well when they lost his sister Julie tragically and my granny’s faith strengthened and her connection with poetry grew. Words have always been one of my love languages. I am so grateful to have so many of granny’s words inside my heart and written on the pages of her memoir. I miss her terribly and draw so much comfort and strength from her faith and her poetry. #love #poetry #faith #grief #psychology #depression #anxiety #words #wellness #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #family #grandparents

  2. How to do it anyway! Sometimes we are waiting for that feeling of energy, motivation, interest or drive. Sometimes this can keep us waiting. Turns out that ‘doing’ it anyway, is a fast track to having more energy, motivation, interest and drive. We can charge our battery up by ‘doing’ the thing. So often we think that when we’re feeling fatigue that we should preserve our energy. Unfortunately this can often lead to more fatigue. We need motion, we need momentum. Motion is lotion! Don’t believe me? Try it! Do the thing and see how you feel. Are you glad you did it? Let’s test some of our beliefs and review the data. 📊 #psychology #cbt #activation #change #strength #mindfulness #mindful #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthmatters #mindovermatter #mindovermood #anxiety #depression #insomnia #wellness #health

  1. We spent three days on Nipissing territory making bark baths with youth, staff, and community. It rained nonstop. The mosquitoes left us swollen. We adapted. And we finished. Hundreds of bark baths.. made the old way.. now in the hands of our people. This isn’t a wellness trend. This is high-functioning medicine. This recipe was passed down by medicine people who used it their entire careers.. And they never saw it fail. Neither have I. Eczema, psoriasis, scarring, hormonal acne, burns, chemo damage.. we’ve used this thousands of times. So far? Not a single skin condition has survived it. Here's why it works: 🌱 Adopweaash, Alder (Alnus spp.) Oregonin – a diarylheptanoid compound that targets deep hormonal dysregulation and reduces inflammatory cytokines at the root of acne, eczema, and even PCOS-related skin flares. 🌿 Ziisagopimish, Willow (Salix spp.) Salicin – a natural prodrug that metabolizes to salicylic acid in the skin, triggering directed healing responses, clearing damaged tissue, reducing keratin buildup, and targeting pathogen overgrowth. It tells the skin: heal here. 🌿 Azaatii, Poplar (Populus spp.) Populin & Tremulacin.. calming polyphenols that create the healing environment by downregulating inflammatory enzymes like COX-2 and soothing sensory nerves.. the skin’s version of a safe place to rest. The combination of heat, medicine and acids are just like a sweat lodge or exercise, the mild insult pushes the body to respond and rebuild. Then blood rushes in.. and healing begins. My muma just called this “a bath.” That’s how ordinary it was. But now, being this far removed from those teachings, we call it therapy. Mino bimaadiziwin isn’t a luxury. It’s what happens when you return to the rhythm. When you align knowledge with action. It’s time to take it back. Our health. Our ways. #BarkBaths #Nibiising #AnishinaabeMedicine #TraditionalHealing #IndigenousPharmacology #MinoBimaadiziwin #HormonalAcne #EczemaHelp #SkinHealing #LandBasedMedicine #ReclaimTheBath #WeWereBornForThis
