The World Cup has always been about more than soccer for me.

It’s about pride. Culture. Family. FAITH. The songs we sing, the flags we wave, the tears we cry, and the memories we make together.

But it also has a way of exposing something deeper.

When passion turns into prejudice...
When competition becomes hatred...
When the colour of someone’s skin, their accent, or where they come from becomes a reason to judge rather than celebrate...

We’ve missed the whole point.

Years ago, I wrote this article after witnessing racism firsthand. Reading it again today, during another World Cup, I realized how sadly relevant it still is.

As parents, we are raising the next generation of fans. More importantly, we’re raising the next generation of humans!!!

Our children are always watching.

May they see us cheer fiercely for our teams while respecting every person on the field and in the stands. May they learn that you can love your country without hating someone else’s. And may they grow up believing that our differences are something to celebrate - not fear.

Love will always be louder than hate!!!! Let’s remember this and live it.

💗 Read my article through the link in my bio (or on my website) and let me know: what values do you hope your children carry into the world?

I don’t miss hospital work, and here’s why:

Fourteen years of 12-hour shifts. Countless births. Endless learning. So many families welcomed into the world during some of their most vulnerable and beautiful moments.

Being a labour and delivery nurse shaped me in ways I will carry forever. It taught me resilience, compassion, clinical wisdom, and the privilege of walking alongside families during life-changing transitions. I will always be grateful for that chapter!!! I can’t stress this enough!

But today, as I sit on the sidelines of another soccer game, make it to another school event, hear every story after school, and soak in the little moments that once felt rushed, I’m overwhelmed with gratitude.
Because for the first time in a long time, I don’t feel like I’m missing a beat.

I have the space to be present.
The flexibility to say yes.
The joy of building a life and career that allows me to fully show up for both my family and the families I serve.

I still get to support parents through some of their most vulnerable seasons - just in a different way now. Through sleep coaching, newborn support, feeding guidance, and family coaching, I get to walk beside families virtually and in person while also being fully present for my own children.

And that is something I never take for granted.
To every family who has trusted me, referred me, cheered me on, and allowed me to do this work: thank you. This community has given me more than I can ever put into words.

The hospital chapter was beautiful.
This chapter feels like home ❤️

I’m still engaging with your content because I love you and I know we’re all hustling but this is my observation and opinion

The last few events I’ve been to have been really eye opening. No one is *present*, everyone is just shooting content the entire time and not actually enjoying the moment. You’d think, after seeing their reel that they post, that they had the BEST TIME. But in reality you were in a relationship with your phone the entire time you were out. No deep conversations or engagement. It just isn’t my jam.

Is this why my page isn’t growing? Likely a factor. But I care more about the impact I make in real life. I care about the deep conversations l, I care to know YOU.

Am I alone in these thoughts? Do I just need to get with the times?

No one is doing everything all the time. And you shouldn’t either! Take the pressure off and enjoy life!!!!

1. Adjust nap time intentionally (short term) so produce more sleep drive for bedtime

2. If feeds are drowsy or sleepy (blanking out into space, heavy eyelids) it will make bedtime challenging with a LOT of tears. This is due to the release of sleep pressure during feeding. It is common during a mental leap and milestone reach!

3. BONUS piece of advice : spend longer time with bedtime routine really focusing on intention, connection and quiet play together without distraction!
