I spent this past weekend sharing my book and mission at the The Word On The Street Toronto festival, and honestly, this was the most incredible outcomes I have ever had as a vendor.

Thousands of lovely humans stopped to read and reflect on heartbreak, grab a copy of my book, and learn about why I do what I do. Some of them even recognized me from social media and/or previous events - how cool is that?!

Nearly 5 years ago I went through a breakup that destroyed my self-esteem and made me question how I would ever fall in love again.

5 years later I’m on a continued mission of helping heartbroken people feel less alone. I have one of the coolest jobs in the world, and I’m so damn proud of it.

P.S, I’m running a live storytelling event about heartbreak on November 21st. More info coming soon 👀

my girlfriend and I have never had a fight. and no, we aren’t hiding things from one another, we just talk about things as soon as they happen, before it becomes bigger than it has to be!

thank you MadeGood Canada for sending me so many great snacks! A perfect addition to Episode 7 of Snacks and Chats!

I used to think I would never find love again, because honestly, it was hard to believe that I would ever be able to fall in love with someone else. But guess what?

Not only did I fall in love again, I found love that is greater than anything I knew could be possible 🥹

So let this be a reminder that you CAN fall in love again. You deserve healthy, caring, fun, reciprocated, gentle, calm, and beautiful love! And I truly believe it’s out there for you, so please don’t settle for less than you deserve.

Have you ever fallen in love with a friend? I wrote a poem about it.

When life feels really overwhelming for me, I start spiralling into believing I’m the only one having a hard time. These past few years, I’ve been trying to speak up more about my hardships to remind others they’re not alone. And now, you can do that too!

CAMH Foundation recently launched Hope Notes - a simple (but effective) way of reminding someone facing mental illness or addiction that they’re not alone.

Head over to the link in my bio to send a hope note today 💛

I’m lucky to call you my partner. I’m lucky to live this life being in love with you.

I wonder what would happen if I told you that I love you? Though I’m afraid of admitting it because I’m scared you’ll reject me.

but maybe missing you isn’t such a bad thing?
