Health is one of the most profitable industries in the world, and that comes with a cost.
Most people are aware of the villainization of western medicine and its ties to Big Pharma. But smart entrepreneurs noticed that shift before the rest of us did, and eastern medicine is now facing the same disproportionate focus on profit over people.
At the end of the day, no guru, doctor, or wellness specialist knows you better than you know yourself. Now more than ever, we need to become better advocates for our own autonomy when it comes to our health. Disclaimer: this isn't anti-doctor or anti-wellness. It's a reminder that no single product, protocol, or person has the entire answer, because your body, your mind, and your life are too unique for a one-size-fits-all fix. Buckle up, grab a beverage, and let's chat some de-influencing on my couch!!

Autumn is almost always at the top of the list when I ask people where I live what their favourite season is. And honestly, I understand why. Ontario in the fall is breathtaking.
Grief is one of those things that changes shape all the time.
Autumn isn’t asking us to stop, it’s asking us to listen. Turn inward, and reflect.
As the days get shorter and the shadows outside become a little more visible, autumn invites us to look inward, too. There’s something about this season that naturally brings our own shadows to the surface: the parts of ourselves we might avoid, the mistakes we still carry, and the feeling that we should be further along than we are. In this episode, we’re talking about the feeling of not being enough, learning to forgive ourselves for the things we wish we had done differently, and accepting ourselves for where we are right now, even when it isn’t where we ultimately want to be. Because when we’re constantly living in the past or reaching toward the future, we miss the only place where we can actually create change: the present moment. Think of this as your autumn reminder to slow down, meet yourself where you are, and make a little more peace with the person you’re becoming. 🩵
Q4 is right around the corner. And in the corporate and business world, this tends to be one of the busiest times of the year.
