Lockdown birthday = best birthday 🎉⠀
⠀
Feeling the love and kindness today and so very grateful for the comments, messages, and surprises that showed up on our porch 💕⠀
⠀
And clearly — when my BFF @thisblee showed up with this balloon, this photo was non-negotiable 💚⠀
⠀
Sorry, not sorry 😅⠀

Walking into 37 like …. ✨⠀
⠀
It’s my birthday.⠀
⠀
And truthfully —⠀
⠀
It’s hard to believe I’m turning 37.⠀
⠀
Like - how did THAT happen?⠀
⠀
Here’s what I do know.⠀
⠀
Even if the world is a little funky…⠀
⠀
And I’m celebrating in a lock down…⠀
⠀
I’m proud of the woman I am today.⠀
⠀
And I can’t wait to see what she does on her 37th spin around the sun 💫⠀
⠀
As Beyoncé said — “If there’s one thing I’m willing to bet on, it’s myself.”⠀
⠀
Salud 🥂⠀

This week is going to be magic 💫⠀ ⠀ But if

This week is going to be magic 💫⠀
⠀
But if in the end it’s not, that’s OK too.⠀
⠀
I didn’t have any crazy expectations for 2021.⠀
⠀
I wasn’t part of the midnight club that thought everything would be fine and go back to normal.⠀
⠀
But I had HOPE 🖤⠀
⠀
Hope it might be a LITTLE better.⠀
⠀
And then the last two weeks?⠀
⠀
Oufff ☄️⠀
⠀
Lockdown and single-household bubble.⠀
⠀
My new-to-me in 2020 anxiety was off the charts.⠀
⠀
Social media was making me feel worse.⠀
⠀
I wasn’t sleeping well.⠀
⠀
Both Mondays, I woke up hopeful it would be a great week.⠀
⠀
And I was wrong. Both times.⠀
⠀
So what I did I do?⠀
⠀
I reminded myself that I have spent the past 10 months living in a global pandemic.⠀
⠀
A “historical” event.⠀
⠀
I told myself on REPEAT that the compound effects of 2020 on our bodies are just starting to rear their ugly head.⠀
⠀
To experience that impact and feel it hard is only human.⠀
⠀
I’m sharing this — because I never want to be only a highlight reel.⠀
⠀
(don’t let the photo fool you — I don’t have a ‘Crystal is a state of panic’ folder to pick from)⠀
⠀
It was also important to me to share this because I know I’m definitely not the only one feeling frazzled and panicked these days.⠀
⠀
But here we are.⠀
⠀
It’s Monday again.⠀
⠀
And I’m still hopeful it will be a great week.⠀
⠀
If it’s not? Well, it’s my birthday Friday so at least there will hopefully be cake 😉 🙏🏻 ⠀
⠀
PS: If you can relate to this post BIG TIME, I invite you to join me ce soir 👉🏻 I’ll be joining my friend and superwoman @drashleymargeson to have an honest, raw chat about burnout, how we can avoid it and why getting media coverage 📣 for your biz shouldn’t burn you out. Join us at 8pm 🖤⠀

And it’s back to wedding planning 💍⠀ ⠀ On

And it’s back to wedding planning 💍⠀
⠀
One year ago yesterday - I said yes to THE dress.⠀
⠀
It’s kind of wild to think that this time last year, I was nervously emailing the @algonquinstandrews to ask them if they by some stroke of luck had any summer 2020 dates left for a wedding.⠀
⠀
I hadn’t even run this idea by my fiancé.⠀
⠀
I was THAT sure there wouldn’t be any dates left.⠀
⠀
We were 7 months out.⠀
⠀
Getting a wedding date at one of Atlantic Canada’s most charming resorts in peak summer? As if.⠀
⠀
But we did ✨⠀
⠀
And by May, we were postponing and picking a new 2021 date, because you know how the story goes.⠀
⠀
All of that to say — with less than 7 months to go until our 2021 wedding date — I am so excited to be back in wedding planning mode after the holidays 👰‍♀️⠀
⠀
Being a covid bride might mean a smaller wedding but we’ve definitely dialled up the glam 💃🏼🕺🏼⠀
⠀
Sorry, not sorry for all of the bride vibes this year.⠀
⠀
After postponing due to a pandemic — us covid brides might be a little extra this year 😉⠀
⠀
PS: This photo is out from trip in anniversary. We are safely tucked in our home following the rules 😷⠀
