Did you know some life insurance policies can pay out while you're still alive?

It's called a living benefit. Depending on your policy, it may pay out if you're diagnosed with a covered critical illness, helping with bills, treatment or time off work when your family needs it most.

Every policy is different, so it's worth knowing what's in yours before you ever need it. Swipe for the three questions I'd ask about any policy.

"Is my child's condition serious enough?"

Parents ask me this a lot, and it's often the reason they hold off on the Disability Tax Credit.

The DTC isn't decided by the name of a diagnosis. It's about how a condition affects day-to-day life. A medical practitioner fills out the form, and the CRA makes the call.

And if your child is approved, that approval opens the door to the RDSP, where the government can add grants and bonds.

If you'd like to talk through where to start, comment RDSP or send me a message.

General information only. Eligibility is determined by the CRA.

Ever put off booking a meeting with a financial advisor because you weren't sure what you were walking into? You're not alone.

Here's how a first consultation with me actually goes:

☕ We start with your family: who's in it, what you're working toward, and what's keeping you up at night.
💬 You ask anything. There are no silly questions, and I'll explain things in plain language.
🧩 We look at options that fit your goals, not a one-size-fits-all package.
✅ You decide what's next, in your own time. Nothing gets signed on the spot.

Most families tell me they wish they'd booked sooner. If you've been meaning to, send me a message and we'll find a time that works.

There are 3 questions I get almost every week. Here are the short answers.

1️⃣ "How much life insurance do we actually need?"
It's not a random multiple of your salary. Start with what would need to be covered if your income stopped: the mortgage, childcare, and your day-to-day bills.

2️⃣ "Is it too late to save for my kids' education?"
Usually not. The federal RESP grant has catch-up room, so missed years can often be partly made up, with up to $1,000 in grants a year.

3️⃣ "TFSA or RRSP?"
It depends on your income now compared with later, and what the money is for. Many families use both. Start with the goal, then pick the account.

Financial planning shouldn't feel intimidating. The more you understand your options, the more confident you'll feel making decisions for your family.

Have one of these on your mind? Send me a message. No judgment. No pressure.

Your TFSA is not a savings account. 👀

A lot of people open a TFSA at the bank, put money in, and never look at what it's actually holding. A TFSA is a tax-free wrapper. You can hold cash, GICs or investments inside it. The account is tax-free, and what grows inside it is up to you.

3 things to check inside yours:
1️⃣ What is it actually holding? Cash earning very little, or invested for your goal?
2️⃣ How much room do you have? Check CRA My Account so you don't over-contribute.
3️⃣ Does it match your timeline? Money for next year and money for 20 years from now shouldn't sit in the same thing.

The numbers:
💰 2026 limit: $7,000
💰 Never contributed? Your total room since 2009 is $109,000
💰 Money you withdraw is added back to your room the following January

Want a second set of eyes on yours? Comment "TFSA" and I'll send you a simple checklist. No judgment. No pressure.

The run is better with company. So is the coffee after.

I’m teaming up with Kids and Kms Stroller Run Club for a post-run hangout on Saturday, October 24. Finish your kms, then come warm up with us at Rustic Reel at 8:45 am.

Warm sips, sweet treats, some swag, and a few surprises.

Mostly, it’s a chance to slow down and meet the families who show up every week, strollers and all. Community gets built in small moments like this one: a hot drink, a cold morning, and people who get it.

First run with the club or your fiftieth, come say hi. Bring the kids and bring a friend.

Tag a running buddy who needs to be there.

BC parents, this one's worth knowing about. 👇

The BC Training and Education Savings Grant (BCTESG) puts a one-time $1,200 into your child's RESP. You don't have to contribute anything to get it.

BC Budget 2026 announced the grant ends April 1, 2028. Each child can only apply between their 6th and 9th birthdays, so if you have a 6, 7, or 8 year old (or one turning 6 soon), now's the time to look into it.

Here's what to do:

Open an RESP if you don't have one
Make sure your provider offers the BC grant
Apply once your child turns 6

You can stack it with the federal grant too. The government adds 20% on the first $2,500 you contribute each year, up to $500 a year and $7,200 over your child's lifetime.

Comment "RESP" and I'll send you a simple checklist. No judgment. No pressure.

Is whole life insurance actually a scam?

I get asked this a lot, so let’s talk about it honestly, not as a sales pitch.

It’s not a scam. But it’s not right for everyone, and it’s often oversold. Swipe for when it can make sense, when term is usually the better fit, and the red flags to watch for.

My job isn’t to sell you one answer. It’s to help you find the right one for your situation.

Been sold something and not sure it’s right for you? Send me a message and we’ll take an honest look together. No judgment. No pressure.
