The Impact of Social Distancing on Friendships and How to Stay Connected

April 1, 2020 By Deb B. 21 Comments

How the heck are we going to stay connected while we’re told to practice social distancing?

The Impact of Social Distancing on Friendships and How to Stay Connected www.sassandsmalls.comComing from a person who counts down the minutes before my little one comes home from school, or eagerly waits for her toddler to wake up from a nap – it’s gotta be bad if I’m literally a bag of nerves having both kids home, full-time, 24/7, with very little physical connection to the outside world.

I can totally feel my fellow homeschooling mama friends of 5+ kids rolling their eyes at my first world problems. But the truth is – we are all human, and the fear of the unknown – between, how we will educate our kids at home, keep them safe, keep them busy, and keep ourselves sane – is real. The struggle is definitely real. 

So I decided to round up some ways moms can keep sane and stay connected with one another while at home with the kids. Some will work for you, some won’t – it all depends on your situation, the weather, where you are on the panic spectrum, of course… your kids, and let’s not forget – what gives you your bliss. So pick and choose – but definitely give at least some of these a whirl. 

Here are some easy ways to stay connected to your crew:

FACETIME/ZOOM/GOOGLE DUO/FACEBOOK VIDEO MESSAGE YOUR FRIENDS

Basically – jump on this wonderful opportunity that is handed to us on a golden digital platter. We have the free apps and the easiest of access. I’m lucky I can have access to these apps on my computer so while I’m editing photos, I’m chatting it up with my buddies over a glass of wine. Okay – so I’m not the one drinking wine, but I can always put some sparkling lemon water in a wine glass and voila – a night of drinks and giggles with my best gal pals!

It’s important especially during times like this that we don’t crawl into our cozy little holes – even if it might be the first thing we intrinsically do. It’s already a strange time where we naturally withdraw and fall into a world of seclusion. While cooped up in our homes social distancing, it’s important to maintain some sort of connection with another person. Does it have to be 20 other people in a big group chat? Sure… but it’s not necessary. Even if you stay connected with one person in the outside world, it’s enough to give us a good dose of what’s going on outside the confines of your home. Being able to engage with one another and support each other while collectively facing the unknown, is an option we need not take for granted. 

Here’s how you can do Group Facetime (for the apple users), Google Duo (for calls between non-apple friends), Houseparty (a simple “drop in” style interactive video chat where you can dip in and out of a “house” rather than making a call – as well as play interactive games), Zoom (one on one or for 3+ people for up to 40 minutes – there are also paid subscriptions too). My household’s go-to is the very user friendly Facebook messenger. You can do it from your computer (make sure your software if updated and your device has enough battery power), or any of your smart devices. I have better luck using Apple iPhone  or my newer Apple MacBook Pro. It’s versatile, less audio/video dramatics to navigate through, and light enough that your other hand can enjoy that glass of wine, or that bag of  “kale”? (yeah, right) chips you’ve been dying to dig into.

The Impact of Social Distancing on Friendships and How to Stay Connected www.sassandsmalls.comNow do these faces look like they’re suffering in the connection department? Okay – maybe we can’t give each other a squeeze, but the love is definitely there. We can share our worries, our homeschool trials and tribulations (let’s keep it real – more trials than tribulations…), laugh about the needless stuff, and just downright stay connected.

Heck, our fur babies and babies can join in on the fun as well! ‘Cuz who needs words when you can just giggle and make faces? May I suggest trying Messenger for Kids which is an interactive messaging app for kids. We have been humming and hawwwing about it for months, and we finally gave in. Since giving it a fair chance – our once relatively semi-social-at-best little girl, has now become Miss digital social butterfly. She’s learning to engage in meaningful conversations, keep in close contact with her long distant cousins, and get a little practice in writing, spelling, and exercising the complexities in conversational language. Bonus: it coincidentally gives this overextended mama-teacher 15 minutes to clean up, or catch up with my own buddies. Goodness know, since we began homeschooling, I’ve been terrible at responding to texts myself, and independent use of my hands and brain space is pretty much a thing of the past.

The Impact of Social Distancing on Friendships and How to Stay Connected www.sassandsmalls.comEven the babes in utero can benefit from a little digi-Auntie love. Lemme tell ya, hearing my niece-y’s heartbeat, especially during the goings-on of this crazy world she’s about to enter – is both a joy and a relief. My heart is full knowing we have such incredible access especially during a time like this. The ability to share news and moments like this can alleviate some of those feelings of isolation and stress, even if it means awkwardly attaching a doppler to a headset, that’s attached to a mobile device, all while lying down, exposing your preggy belly, and fighting back tears. Hey… we’re moms – no one can multitask like a boss quite like us. The Impact of Social Distancing on Friendships and How to Stay Connected www.sassandsmalls.comWe even held a Celebration of Life for my dear Aunt who passed shortly before the onset of the global pandemic. Lighting candles simultaneously with our loved ones from all corners of the world, by way of Zoom, allowed us to create a beautiful memory as we honored our beloved Aunt.

WRITE DIGITAL “SNAIL MAIL” LETTERS TO YOUR FRIENDS

The other day I received a nice long letter (with a sign off and everything) – by one of my closest friends who is probably the last of the few snail mail letter writers in my world (and yours). And since there are limitations and potential risks of sending actual mail, she opted for an email rather than traditional snail mail. Sure, it lacked the personal touches like her beautiful penmanship, and hard copy photos (what are those again?). But it was still a remarkable way to get the updates, ask questions, share concerns, and mostly, get a good dose of happy from our most nearest and dearest, but farthest. 

The Impact of Social Distancing on Friendships and How to Stay Connected www.sassandsmalls.comAnd who says e-letters of love to our girls (and guys) have to be limited to our long distant friends? Why not send a quick check-in letter to your local crew? Update them on your day and ask them to do the same. Even if it means reminiscing on the good ol’ days of playdates at the beach only a couple months ago when you could link arms without the accompanying guilt.

Sigh… those were the days.

GET YOUR KIDS TO WRITE DIGITAL “SNAIL MAIL LETTERS” TO THEIR FRIENDS

Staying connected is everything this day and age. The most introverted of my friends are even craving for some connection outside of their homes. George and I discussed at length, the pros and cons of allowing Little Mama access to her own Kids Messenger account for obvious reasons. So while we were still sitting on the fence, letting her make e-cards, drafting up emails or drawings I can send to her friends (through her friends’ parents via text) is a wonderful way to keep our kiddos busy, creative, and connected. 

Not their cup of hot milk? Then try doing some Facetime with the kiddies and their buds while jumping on the trampoline? Or put your unlimited cell data to good use, and go for a digi-walk with the littles while carrying on conversation. It gets the kids active, helps them stay connected, and gives us all a good dose of human contact outside of our four walls.

Staying connected has never been so instantaneous. 

 VIEW AN E-MOVIE/SERIES TOGETHER

This is the closest thing to snuggling on the couch watching your fave rom-coms with your fave girls. Having them there to ooh, ahh, sigh, and throw things at the tv with, is almost as fun as having them right next to you. All that… without the hassle of having to tidy up or prepare a fancy charcuterie spread. Just sit back, laugh, and enjoy the next hour or two with just you, your fave pals, and no talk of viruses, because sometimes fictional dramatics are far more enjoyable than real life.

This just in – Netflix has just come out with its newest development – Netflix Party.   This long overdue, and brilliant concept is a chrome extension for watching Netflix remotely with friends. It synchronizes video playback and adds group chat. So if video chat isn’t your thing, Netflix Party can provide the perfect alternative to stay connected while keeping noise levels to a minimum. Goodness knows, the last thing you want is wake the kids up while binge watching on your fave programming on your kid-free night.

PLAY A DIGITAL BOARD GAME 

This is something new for me, but it’s fun to get your mind and vocabulary off the whole global pandemic thing, and focus on challenging each other to a healthy game of chess or Yahtzee. Here are some fun ideas of board games that work via video chat. It sounds a lot more complicated than it really is. As long as it’s the kind of game that does not require hidden information between players, it’s definitely doable. Just get creative.

I know it doesn’t beat an in-person game with your ladies, but it’s something. 

The Impact of Social Distancing on Friendships and How to Stay Connected www.sassandsmalls.comGOOD OL’ FASHIONED TEXT AND GROUP CHAT

As most of my friends know, I almost never run out of things to talk about. I’m known for my novella texts and never-ending run on sentences. I’m great at texting when I actually have the time to do it, but I mostly do not. Not having my hands free is my usual go-to excuse (and it’s not even an excuse, it’s true. Have I mentioned I have a very busy nine year old and a curious toddler?). But the moments my hands are indeed free, it’s nice to be able to shoot the shiz with my buds even if our once epic convos have been reduced to ridiculous and mildly inappropriate gifs and emojis. 

In need of a hands free option? I feel ya sister. It’s easy – set up Siri on your phone to do a little voice activated texting. Remember, Siri’s there for the taking – so keep her busy!

DO A DRIVEBY HONK AND YELL FROM A SAFE DISTANCE

Since the onset of lockdown life, a handful of quarantine birthdays have passed (including Little Mama‘s). Without venturing out too far for one of them, and thus, driving minimally (isn’t a city with less smog the most brilliant concept?), we thought a tiny gesture of driving by with loud and obnoxious birthday horns while singing Happy Birthday (wearing masks, no less) would show our special someone that we were thinking of her. We maintained nearly 8 times the recommended distance and it was wonderful. A little strange, but it was nice to see a loved one in the flesh – even though we had to squint to see if she was smiling or not…. 

The Impact of Social Distancing on Friendships and How to Stay Connected www.sassandsmalls.com

On the other end of the connection spectrum, it’s a weird time right now, so putting pressure on yourself and others to be top-notch bestie, and responding to every incoming message in real time… well that’s just added stress that you or your crew do not need right now. Mamas… cut yourselves (and your girls) some slack. Reach out when you can and get back some of that connection you’ve been missing, but know it’s okay to focus on yourself and your family as well. If your plate is already overwhelmingly full (what do you mean homeschooling all day, keeping everyone active, wrangling a toddler, cooking meals, AND working on a business til 4am every night isn’t normal??), sending love and genuine understanding to your  “not so connected” peeps by way of a mental check-in is also how we can keep that connection going strong. Give yourselves and your friends the grace, space, and compassion as we all navigate through this confusing time in the way that works for ourselves and our families. By exercising compassion for one another it allows us to stay connected with our loved ones while deepening our bond. We need to remind ourselves that the days of lockdown are numbered, but our years of friendships are not.  Go easy on yourselves and your fellow quarantined sisters. We’re all in this together.

SOMETHING * IS * BREWING :: A #behindthescenes gli SOMETHING * IS * BREWING :: A #behindthescenes glimpse of what feels like the beginning of a powerful shift in #womenshealth right here in #Victoria.

To stand alongside such empowered women — #caregivers, #changemakers, survivors, women from all walks of life — in the very place where the hands and hearts of this hospital held me and my family together (in more ways than one)… it was overwhelming in the best way.

Even more so, to share it with my daughter, my fiercest little survivor. Both of our stories of survival are woven into these hospital walls.

This was more than just a shoot. This was change taking place in real time. Honoured to be a tiny part of this moment as it unfolds.

Thank you for bringing this to life @ourvichospitals @averybrohman @gaellevanerp 💛
To the kind dad at the @royalbaycolwood Easter Egg To the kind dad at the @royalbaycolwood Easter Egg Hunt this past Saturday—

You probably didn’t realize how much you and your kids impacted our day.

My son had just missed the first few minutes of the egg hunt (as usual, this mama was running late with a million things on her plate—homeschooling, caregiving, promoting a show, working from home, managing the home, advocating, feeding the young and old, managing moods... the usual chaos).

He stood in line for the balloon dome and said quietly, trying , “I got zero eggs, mama.”

You heard him. Your son, who seemed a bit overwhelmed himself covering his ears from all the noise, and your little girl, reached into their own baskets and filled my son’s bag.

I watched as kindness bloomed in real time.

You didn’t just hand out chocolate—you gave my son the gift of feeling seen and included. You taught your kids what generosity really looks like.

And for this tired, always-late, sandwich-gen special-needs mom—your gesture meant more than you’ll ever know.

If anyone in the Westshore community knows this lovely family (dad of Grayson?), please tag them or send them our thanks.

This is what #community looks like. 🐣💛

After years of #caregiving, #homeschooling, and navigating life in a #neurodivergent family… I hit a wall. 

Hello, #Burnout. 👋 

But thanks to @telus and the @storyhive Video Podcast Program, I sat down with fellow parents, experts, and some of the most resilient humans right here in Victoria, BC to have the conversations we ALL need.

Together, we talk burnout, grief, the mental load of parenting, partnership, career pivots, and what it really takes to reclaim joy and purpose in the thick of #parenting and caregiving.

AUTISTIC BURNOUT :: Did you know there was such a AUTISTIC BURNOUT :: Did you know there was such a thing?

Me Neither! 

But it sure helped me understand my #neurdodivergent not-so-baby teen daughter who has been in #burnout mode for years. Gaining understanding of this aspect of burnout helps us find ways to cope when it creeps up on us as parents - and especially for our children. 

Here’s a #behindthescenes look of my talk on @sassandsmalltalkpodcast filmed at the amazing creative studios of @haus.of.owl with @kkayjudas at @sacred_advantage. She is our wonderful guest and a dear friend (and incredible advocate for my daughter specifically), who shares insight and personal experience on #autisticburnout in this raw and honest interview about how she navigated (continues to navigate) life on the spectrum especially during burnout. I may or may not have shed a tear… or 10… 🤷🏻‍♀️

Tune in on @telus OptikTV Channel 9, stream+ on MAY 6th, and @storyhive YouTube on May 27th  to watch this compelling episode. 

And giving extra love to my beautiful and talented daughter who fine tuned the edit of this video! How blessed am I to be the mama of this creative young lady. Now gimme my phone back!!! 🤨

Have you or a loved one experienced Autistic Burnout?
Behind every #sandwichgeneration #entrepreneural # Behind every #sandwichgeneration #entrepreneural #homeschool #mom with #ADHD and #spicy kids, is: 
• a floor filled with painful-to-step-on toys and crafts
• Sniffly kiddos every few weeks 
• nothing crossed off her to-do list
• hundreds of unanswered texts/emails
• and a #mentalload sometimes too overwhelming to carry 

But unlike all the other gloomy seasons I’ve experienced this tough season, I have never felt such peace. 

WHY: 

• I have been walking through my #faithjourney with George and it’s been giving me a different outlook on everything life has thrown our way. My sistas in faith have kept us afloat this tough season @esther.driver @caarly.xo @lishgarv @nicoleacaldwell 

• I have been intentional on fixing my #guthealth, #cortisollevels, and #cognitivefunction with my daily #HJ #happy blend drink, and it has done wonders to my #mentalwellness  and overall health. <DM me for more info on this game changer drink>.

• I’ve been learning to just live in the moment and not be so caught up with doing EVERYTHING all at once. 

• I’m surrounding myself (albeit virtually and in spirit) with some of my chosen fam who probably get the most neglect of all, but still give me grace while I clumsily navigate this crazy season @nengineermom @rahannavu  @iamharpsra 
@m_stiggity 
@jenny_p1987  @westislanddesigns @kkayjudas @teacuphuman09 @i_am_miss_jen @swanny80 @trishita_namagita 

• Even though my business relies heavily on my #online presence, I’m giving myself grace for fully immersing myself in the needs of my family this last month I’ve been MIA. I know I can pick up where I left off, and lean on my mentors & biz sistas to pull me out of the seasonal funk @caitoaks @mommamillsblog, @happybalancemama @sweetmamalifedaily, and get back on track. 

Busy, overwhelmed mama… I see you. This is just a season. Do what you need to do, especially for you and your loved ones. Everything will still be there ready for you to “tackle” when you’re ready. 

And what losing two loved ones these last couple weeks has taught me - we’re only here temporarily. Spend your time earthside doing what you love, and loving who you love. @gjavier5 ❤️
No amount of “juice” can lessen the exposure t No amount of “juice” can lessen the exposure to elementary school winter bugs, but it sure came in handy when we need it IN & OUT of our household. 

Especially since I have elderly under my care. 

It skipped George and I entirely - but it definitely hit our two little ones, as bugs do. 

After a nice, tall glass of kid’s #HJ (mixed with some mango edge+ for my bigger and pickier smallie) - along with a nice snuggly nap - the symptoms were way less vicious than previous colds, and gone by the time I blended them their dose the next morning. 

It’s not some miracle drink with empty promises - it’s just ALL the good stuff in a glass. 

DM me if you want a sip for yourself or your sniffly kiddos. I’m telling you, our overall health and wellness as a family, has improved, since focusing on our #guthealth.

There is no price too high to pay for overall #wellness.

#NationalFamilyCaregiversMonth #november P I N K #NationalFamilyCaregiversMonth #november 

P I N K :: I recently learned that flamingos lose their pink when caring for others (notably, mom flamingos) —and I felt that deeply this past year. When my sweet elderly Mama had an unfortunate fall, resulting in emergency surgery, an extended hospital stay, and complete dependence on full time care, I was torn between moving in and being there for her full-time, caring for my sick kids and husband, homeschooling, and managing my business. 

I lost my pink.

Everything else—work, plans, even my son’s birthday—had to wait. Our home was a mess, appointments were missed, mistakes were made, friendships were tested, and the mental load was heavy. But nothing compared to watching my once strong Mama feel powerless as she leaned into the support she needed but once resisted.

My Mom lost her pink. 

It was a season of sacrifice, but now returning the equipment, that helped with her recovery, is a moment I’ll never forget.  I can now see from a clear lens, that working together as a family (my own family, my brother’s, my parents), we made it through, with the power of faith, a supportive community and amazing and understanding friends, love, and especially prayer.

It feels so good to stand back and see the full picture. And best of all… 

Both my Mama and I got our pink back.

M A G G I E :: 🎉 Some #BTS #onthepod @sassandsm M A G G I E :: 🎉 Some #BTS #onthepod @sassandsmalltalkpodcast with my long lost twin and the hilariously brilliant MAGGIE of @thecatmompodcast ! We’re diving deep into life with a #SpicyBrain 🧠, talking all things #ADHD, and how she’s been navigating motherhood, chaos, and #burnout like the absolute rockstar she is. 💥

🎂 Oh, and did I mention it’s her #BIRTHDAY today?! 🎈 Be sure to give @minimaggie ALL the love in the comments! 🥳👇🏻

This episode, filmed at @haus.of.owl, is packed with so much relatable insight (and laughter... SO. MUCH. LAUGHTER 😂). Catch it #comingsoon #2025 on @TELUS OptikTV @storyhive! You won’t want to miss this one. 💬🎙️

Life just got a little more interesting @gjavier5 @ianshockeycards. Our apologies in advance… #doubletrouble 👭🏻
MY. FAM. IS. THRIVING. That is all. DM (and Fo MY. FAM. IS. THRIVING. 

That is all. 

DM (and Follow me) for deets on this amazing EASY 30sec Wellness supplement (and other #Amare Go-tos) that has elevated this family from shaking things up in the gut (bye 💩 probs), to clearing things up in the 🧠 (Wait - they actually WANT to learn? 🤯) … NOTHING ELSE has worked THIS GOOD for this family of Neuro-Ds. 

It’s not just some magic fix. 
It’s au naturale. Backed by science.
It’s #guthealth.
It’s #cognitivefunction.
Down to the cellular level.

✨ Sidenote: “Thriving” doesn’t mean, perfect, always happy, or that everyone is ALWAYS on the same page. 

That would just be weird. 

It means: 
• our target areas of concern (individually) are being addressed. 
• less chaos, more peace. 
• less reactive, less defensive
• more motivation, less resistance

We’re all collectively on our way to overall physical and mental wellness. 

And the best part is - all the kids care about is that it tastes darrrrrrrrn good. 

So what are you waiting for?
C O N N E C T I O N :: Now that George and I are b C O N N E C T I O N :: Now that George and I are both focusing on our COLLECTIVE #cortisolbalance - both our relationship and our kids benefit from these changes: 

• no longer reactive (to each other/kids)
• more playful with the kids, no longer irritable 
• have the #mentalclarity to pause and let each other have a say
• more well-rested - due to resisting #sleeprevenge (guys, I actually WANT to sleep now!! WHAT!??) 
• less overwhelm by everyday stressors
• tackle to-dos faster, together - procrastination completely not our thing anymore

** And the best and most shocking of them all… I am no longer impulsive with needless, emotional-spending, and that alone is a 🎁 for George! 

So many men and women in our age group are struggling like we were, only a few months ago.

This healthy cortisol mocktail is a daily favorite, takes 30 seconds to make, and is filled with adaptogens and healthy ingredients!

Moral of the story, in getting that dang SASS back: 
✨ Take Risks
✨ Get your gut health in check 🥤
✨ Find your peeps 
✨ Tell them how awesome they are

DM me, watch my stories, click on my bio links if you want in on any of this good stuff! 🥤 + 🎙️ + 💰📺

✨Be sure to give a little ❤️ to my 13 year old Smallie who helped me level up with this reel with her magic touch. #ASD #autism #thisishomeschool #homeschooler #mygirl #techgirl #daughter
I’m 1/2 a century, baby. #HappyBirthday to me, i I’m 1/2 a century, baby. #HappyBirthday to me, indeed.
#thisisme

And life just got a little sweeter. 

It’s not some secret recipe, or some overcomplicated skin regimen. 

It’s #faith
Motivation
The want
The humility to accept help
The unconditional love from family
Learning to say no to the wrong, and yes to the right. 

I took a chance on ME a few months ago, and since then, have seen a shift in myself.

I dreaded this #milestonebirthday for the last 10 years. I dreaded ESPECIALLY, being transparent to ANYONE… even my own kids. 

But it dawned on me. 

(With the help of my fellow #hypewoman gals that gave me the gentle nudge to OWN my age, not hide it) @sweetmamalifedaily  @nengineermom @mommamillsblog  @caitoaks  @lilkeez @iamharpsra  @rahannavu @mstiggity

Why hide it? 
What am I scared of? 

I DID IT!

I hit 1/2 a century, I survived 9 brutal pregnancy losses, and held one of them in my arms. I looked death in the eye, and through prayer and community - I came out of it alive and kicking. AND thriving.

It wasn’t my time. I still have work to do here. 

But even with these life altering moments in my life, I STILL:
• made bad health choices
• stretched myself to max capacity
• said YES to things that stifled my growth.
• said NO to hard things that meant growth
• lived in debilitating fear, daily
• allowed my #adhd to paralyze, not enhance my life
• had horrible boundaries… correction… I had no boundaries 

It took 50 years, (3 months ago, to be exact), but I found exactly what I needed: 
• A deeper connection with God
• Gratitude
• A go-to, easy #cortisol #drink that balances out those darn hormones, and targets my #Mentalwellness #HJ 
• Forgiveness and freedom from past hurts 
• An awesome studio to do my craft @haus.of.owl
• A killer program that funds said craft @Telus @storyhive 
• A loving approach #wifey, #specialneeds Mama & #caregiver Daughter
• Self Compassion
• And the GUMPTION to follow (FIX) my Gut. 

Thank you to those who remembered when I chose to forget, that turning 50 is a blessing, not a curse. 

DM me or comment 50 if you want in on this big secret.
✨ I N S I D E * O U T ✨ :: If you wanna see ho ✨ I N S I D E * O U T ✨ :: If you wanna see how HAPPY J blend has made a difference for me, and coincidentally - the family - take a look at our Behind the scenes of this year’s Inside Out FAM-O-WEEN —an honest, messy, and very real snapshot of our year. 2024 was a DOOZY. 

From frustration, to resistance, to acceptance, to finding Joy again (with a DAILY DOSE of HAPPY J and a whoooooole lotta Jesus) - each character felt like a reflection of this year’s whirlwind of emotions. It’s been a time of big decisions, finding our footing, embracing transitions, more sleepless nights,  a diagnosis we’ve been waiting a decade for, falls, accidents, sickness - the whole shebang of emotions. 

And then #anxiety reared its ugly head.  In full force. 

But, alongside family and close friends, Faith, and some yummy sips of a healthy supplement, carried us through. 

In a year that stretched us to our limits, this shoot felt like the perfect way to honour all the “inside out” moments we’ve faced. So here’s to the messy, the joyful, and even the challenging times that shape who we are. From deep #burnout and anxiety to discovering our faith and mental wellness, I’m stepping into the next chapter with a full heart and maybe a few more laughs (even if I’m a year older 😉).

Here’s to growth, gratitude, and whatever’s next. #FamOWeen2024 #InsideOutLife #EmotionalYear #insideout #FindingJoy #Milestonebirthday

2024 has been quite the year of change for us all. Emotions have been all over the map!
• #Caregiving has been amped up with unexpected falls and hospital stays 
• Our little not so little teen is on her last year of Middle school #homeschool version - not so easy but hey, surviving. #Disgust
• Our little guy cut his once curly locks and became a little man overnight - no tears except a very #sad dad who suffered from FOMO #Anger
• George also cut his hair that was once down to his waist. He was ready to let go of the weight of the world literally on his shoulders.
• I got selected for a wonderful @TELUS @Storyhive project to do a broadcast version of my #podcast and got my Juju back #happytears
• and yes… I found the perfect match for me to deal with my very neglected #guthealth, and yes… it’s a Gamechanger that has been behind the true shift in my mental health, productivity, and my road to a better me. Hence, “Happy” #Joy. #happyjuice

All these emotions check out. #insideOut we have thrived and survived. 

Happy Halloween!
S N E A K * P E E K :: I’m so excited to share a S N E A K * P E E K :: I’m so excited to share a little sneak peek of @theoutpostboardgamecafe, our good friend’s soon-to-be-opened #boardgame café, right here in the #Westshore 🎲🎲. The ONLY ONE of its kind in THIS part of town!! 🎉🎉We’ve ALL been waiting for this… 

Mamas… I’m looking at you… 👀

✨
✨ 

It’s been amazing watching this space come together - already such a fun vibe and a cozy spot to hang out, play some games, and connect with friends. And I already got my #gameschool curriculum ready to go for my #homeschooler (and her game lovin’ mama-teacher 🙋🏻‍♀️) to enjoy. And of course date nights with my guy and girls night with my ladies!! 

✨
✨

They’re getting so close to opening, and I can’t wait for everyone to experience it in person!! 

✨

Be sure to SHARE THIS POST AND SPREAD THE WORD - #Grandopening is Nov 1st!! 🎗️✂️ Stay tuned for more updates—it’s going to be a game-changer! 😉

F E A R L E S S :: Becoming a mom changed me, and F E A R L E S S :: Becoming a mom changed me, and along the way, my confidence started to slip. The bold, carefree version of me was replaced by someone who worried about the little things—like making a simple left turn onto a highway (with nothing but a stop sign and a prayer).

For years, I avoided that turn. I’d ask trusted adults to drive my kid for these once a year field trips, while I anxiously waited for updates. Sometimes, if I couldn’t arrange a ride, I’d keep her home. No amount of spawning salmon is worth my sanity.

It sounds trivial to the average person, but that turn felt like a mountain I couldn’t climb - for 12 years!!! A really winding, single lane, high speed, intolerant and unforgiving mountain to climb.

✨✨✨✨✨

Enter my Happy Blend Morning supplement.

After a few weeks of working on my gut health and balancing hormones, including cortisol, I feel lighter—mentally and emotionally. The anxiety that used to grip me just… doesn’t anymore.

Something in me felt COMPELLED to make that turn. It was my actual, nurtured, gut telling me to not take the backroad out (which is 3 times the distance), and it felt like freedom. 

I’ve learned it’s not just about turning left on a highway; it’s about letting go of fear and no longer caring what others think. My people-pleasing feature was activated as I approached the turn - worrying about the driver behind me, but now, I prioritize what’s best for me and my loved ones. And what’s best for my loved ones is that they get the chance to enjoy an educational experience, without my anxious brain standing in the way.

I am mentally clear, more logical, and becoming resilient where stress once controlled me. I’m ME again, free from imbalanced hormones, and the fear of inconveniencing others.

If this resonates with you, drop “FEARLESS” in the comments, and I’ll share what I’ve been using to get here. You’re not alone. #MomLife
