Jackie J Lawson Supporting women navigating loss as they grieve who they were, rediscover who they are, and gently create lives of renewed purpose and joy.

Keeping a positive attitude is a focus for me. It is not always easy but I am very grateful for the opportunities and practices that help me go through my days joyfully. Sharing information and ideas is a part of me that fills me and makes me smile. Let me help you smile.

There’s a question that doesn’t get asked very often after loss.

Not “How are you doing?”

Not “Are you moving forward?”

But something quieter.

Where are you right now?

Not the polite answer.
Not the strong answer.
Not the “I’m fine” answer.

Just — where are you?

I’ve created a brief reflection called A Starting Point for women navigating loss. It isn’t a test. It isn’t a measure of progress. It’s simply a place to pause and notice where you are in this season.

If this feels like something you might need, comment Starting Point or send me a message, and I’ll share it with you.

Recognition is often the beginning.

Life sure knows how to throw us a curveball, right? Losing something or someone important can really shake things up. One minute everything's normal, then bam, we're in uncharted territory. It's not just about losing a loved one, though that's a big part of it. It's also those times when life does a 180 – sudden changes, health issues, or a lifestyle switch that make us question who we are. We all have to learn to adapt, deal with it, and eventually mourn what used to be.

If you find yourself lost or not knowing what to do, give yourself the time and space to invest in your future self. Join us to let go of uncertainty and shift towards your next step.

Maple leaves forever 🍁

Of the 150 known species of maple, 10 are native to Canada: the Sugar, Black, Bigleaf, Silver, Red, Mountain, Striped, Douglas, Vine and Manitoba Maples. While the Sugar Maple is probably the most well-known of the maple species, Canada’s arboreal emblem is the generic maple species, representing all native species in Canada.

In Toronto, we have five species and one hybrid (Red and Silver Maples naturally cross-pollinate) that are native to our area. These species occur naturally in Toronto’s ravines and forests and are often planted as street and landscape trees.

All maples have opposite leaves and branches. Flowers, borne in clusters before or as the leaves are opening, develop into dry, winged fruits (samaras or maple keys) borne in pairs. The pairs split in half and spiral to the ground like the blades of a helicopter when ripe.

All species are native to Toronto except Manitoba maple that is native to western Canada, and is the only North American maple with compound leaves. Norway maple is native to Europe and Western Asia, invasive in natural areas, and is often confused with Sugar Maple but can be distinguished by its milky sap which is visible when the leaf stalk is broken and maple keys that are wider and spread almost 180º apart compared to native species.
