It’s time to give our pelvic floors the royal treatment they deserve. As we age, our pelvic floors start to act less like elite nightclub security and more like a bouncer who’s been on shift for 30 years and doesn’t care anymore. Instead of managing VIP access and keeping everything inside the club—bladder, bowels,  internal […]

I’ve noticed a lack of lustre like never before this holiday season—a dimming of the usual glow cast under the shadow of a tumultuous political backdrop and financial challenges. The lights are still there, twinkling in windows and strung across trees, but they seem veiled by the weight of our collective unrest. Growing up, Christmas […]

Tupperware, a symbol of our past, has followed the path of leftovers, expired, hitting its expiration date, and filing for bankruptcy. Housing billions of leftovers crammed and stuffed into their various-sized containers, some never to reappear as they once were, this steadfast safe keeper of the sweet and savoury has become a victim of the […]

When encountering challenging individuals or situations, we can learn to see this as a possibility to confront and overcome our inner darkness […]

I’m fed up with CAPTCHA and having to verify I am a human being. It feels like I’m in an episode of the Twilight Zone. Having to repeatedly demonstrate that I’m not a robot to some entity that stands for “Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart” is exhausting. As an […]

I was thinking the other day how much I’d like to be a toddler and behave like our granddaughter.
