I got a question on my Instagram Stories yesterday and it’s always one of the biggest worries for women. It was about how not to come across as intimidating with personal image in male-dominated arenas.

I have an answer for all arenas.

If you have a rock-solid level of self-assurance and show up like it, you will ALWAYS be intimidating to somebody.

I want you to know that this...

I’ve been journaling since I was in Grade 5. It all started with a Woolworth’s unlined lockable pocket journal. I still have it. And since then, I’ve amassed dozens and dozens of journals from fancy moleskins to 50 cent Hilroy school notebooks. Each carries a journey from a piece of life.

From happiness to hurts, greatness to grief, these books, and the conversations with...

If there's one thing I love about living in rural Alberta, it that inevitably, you'll need to take a country drive. For me this morning, my drive came at just the time I needed it.

I was "itchy" for some clarity on my 2020 and what to "do next." I know I talked on the latest episode of the Confidence Shift Podcast about learning to "sit in the success." I did - well for about four full days,...

It's Sunday, and for the last couple of weeks, I've been enjoying being present in my kitchen and with my #GustafsonTrio.

Today, I thought I'd share my Eggnog French Toast recipe.

We had it today along with maple syrup, B's sweet berry compote, icing sugar, and applewood smoked bacon.

I have this thing about being on the floor when I need to sort something creative out. Yesterday afternoon I pulled up a piece of carpet in my Hue and Style® HQ. I had meaningful work to do.

I was sorting out what I'll be teaching to my advanced mentorship clients next week to prepare for the new year. I thought I would teach the same lesson we did last year, but it doesn't seem to fit...

In Show Up Confident, I talk about finding your Meaningful Outcome. It's a more tangible, workable way to think about your purpose. For as long as I can remember, I've had a part of mine to "give confidence away." These three words have run everything I've done, offered, and given away.

In the last year or two, I wasn't sure how I wanted to give myself away to my local community charities. I...

Yesterday afternoon I was all set to have my afternoon siesta when my good friend from Atlanta messaged me. It wasn't long until we were on a voice call laughing until I cried. It happens almost every time we talk.

We always vow our check-in calls will be 5 minutes. They never are, and I got off the 54-minute call with a brand new outlook. I wasn't tired anymore. I didn't need my siesta, and...

Jess, Founder of Pilates On Demand, asked me to join her Above the Barre series on Instagram to talk about my book and all things confidence!
