The Quiet Season Starts Now
09/29 — Your Guide to Toronto Wellness This Week

I’m writing this with a full heart because our very first Lock-In Club meeting happened — and it was everything I hoped it would be. It’s wild to think that just a few months ago this was just an idea sitting in my notes app, and now it's real. You showed up with your full selves, and it felt like the start of something special.
Building this kind of community — slow, honest, and grounded — has been the dream for so long, and I’m just so happy it's actually happening.
That said… your girl is tired. Like, deeply. I’ve been moving nonstop since June, and now that fall is creeping in, I’m really feeling it. Grateful? Absolutely. Energized? Not even a little. 😅
Between building, hosting, connecting, and just trying to stay present, I’ve definitely hit that “wow I did a lot this summer” moment. And of course — because I love chaos — I’ve got 2 HYROX races next week (excited, nervous, why did I sign up again?). After that though, I’m really hoping to find a little pause, a little slowness, a little room to just be.
Before I sign off, one more bit of good news:
Steps & Sculpts Vol. 2 is officially happening!
Our first one was such a cozy, joy-filled night that I knew I had to bring it back. It’s going to be small and intimate again — ONLY 4 SPOTS — so if you want in, you get first dibs. Always.

Here’s to a softer, slower fall. Let’s make it a good one.
