These two photos are 30 years apart.

30 years ago today I started Borden Communications. Hard to believe.

So much is the same.
So much is different.
Notably, I now use the internet instead of the Yellow Pages.

As I wrote in this month’s email, on LinkedIn, and in TWIC (with a gift to all members), whether you’ve been around for 30 years, 30 days, or today’s your first day interacting, I thank you.

Every year ahead is going to be better with you in them.

THIS IS YOUR INVITATION.

I've learned that work and life are way more fun, rewarding, and successful when you share it with others that “get it”.

So ... I created what I craved ... and what you asked for ... a feel-good place online to spend a little feel-good time.

If you are a purpose-driven entrepreneur and/or curious human and ready to feel something new, you're welcome to join me in The Wellness Intelligence Collective. I look forward to sharing everything that's inside!

Do you know Robbie?

Every week I interview a good human from TWIC. This week it’s an exchange with childhood friend, Robbie Palm …

Even though Robbie seems to go by Rob, I have taken the liberty of continuing to call him "Robbie", since that is what I have called him since kindergarten. You'll see class photos of us in this interview and he definitely looks like a "Robbie" to me. :) He works in real estate in Whistler, British Columbia (and beyond) and is a father of two great boys, a devoted husband to his wife, Tina, a brother, and a son having a human experience, as he likes to share. He loves living in Sea to Sky, BC, striving every day to be grateful and present and working with uncompromising morals, values, and ethics. He has an amazing sense of curiosity, which I think must have been instilled in us in kindergarten. Robbie believes that this spark has lead to mischief and many unknowing adventures and gifted him the ability to see and believe in possibility. I hope you enjoy our interview ... I am so grateful for the good sense he has shared with us.

You can find our interview in The Wellness Intelligence Collective (TWIC). It’s a good place to spend a little time. https://www.thewellnessintelligencecollective.com/posts/robbie-palm-member-highlight-of-the-week

It's not that I am promoting vodka (I don’t drink it), but if you are going to have a drink, not all vodka is created equal! Ocean Vodka comes in a beautiful bottle, has a good story, and embodies . If you are going to drink alcohol, make sure it’s as kind as can be … Ocean Vodka is the only vodka in the world crafted from a blend of distilled organic sugar cane and deep ocean mineral water. Think about what is done to bring other vodkas to your drink. https://www.thewellnessintelligencecollective.com/posts/scheduled/ocean-vodka-this-weeks-favourite-thing

This week’s Lesson in in TWIC … APPLE CIDER VINEGAR!

NOT ALL APPLE CIDER VINEGAR IS CREATED EQUAL

My kids joke that I think that most everything can be solved with Apple Cider Vinegar (or Castor Oil!). It’s an age-old folklore remedy that is widely used to flavour and preserve foods, heal wounds, fight infection, clean fruits and veggies, manage weight, aid digestion, and even combat dandruff. Most ACV you find in the grocery store is the clear, pasteurized, and filtered type... The processing is usually done to kill off any bad bacteria but it will also steal the health-giving, good bacteria from the cider!

Do you know Pearl?

Every week I interview a good human from TWIC. This week it’s some wise advice from my grandmother …

Pearl, or as I call her, Gramma, is my nifty, sharp, direct, efficient, amazingly capable, super loving grandmother who smiles and hugs like she means it! This introduction and this interview could not possibly do a justice to her, her life and how she lives it, or what she means to me ... OR have you comprehend her devotion to family and friends, her ability to figure pretty much anything out, and guide others to figure stuff out. Instead of an interview that tells a slice of her life story (since my aunt has been working on that), this is a short and sweet interview where I asked her for some advice for all of us and included a few fun pictures, plus her "recipe" for the best pickles in the whole world. I think it's all very wise. She will be 100 next month ... how many of us have more life experience to pass on a little sound advice?

A must-watch!

The Devil We Know is my featured Favourite Thing of the week. This is an investigative documentary regarding allegations of health hazards from key ingredients used in manufacturing Teflon, and DuPont's “potential” responsibility. You read my post on PFAS? It’s also in TWIC where you can learn more about this documentary film and here: https://www.thewellnessintelligencecollective.com/posts/the-devil-we-know-this-weeks-favourite-thing

This week in the Studio in TWIC … Sphinx to Cobra with Shirlee Williams!

Shirlee is a spiritual mindset coach, a certified yoga teacher, a breathwork and meditation facilitator who really focuses on her growth as much as her clients' goals ... an essential in successful relationships! Shirlee and I connected when she was teaching yoga (accessible for everyone!) decades ago and I had the good fortune of helping her create her brand for Buddha Rider, a successful indoor cycling and yoga studio in Collingwood, Ontario. Since selling this business, you can now find Shirlee sharing her time between Mexico and Canada, running international retreats and online group coaching programs along with her private coaching.

Learn how to do Sphinx to Cobra with Shirlee (full post with video in Studio) … it’s not just a great way to offset sitting and open the front of the body, it will help you be more productive and help you feel better all day, every day!

Evidence-based studies support Exercise Snacking and Stack Workouts. Whether you are super active already or looking for movement motivation, this is the way! Join us in TWIC … it’s open to everyone, as always!

Thank you, Shirlee Williams for teaching us this Snack, it feels so good! https://www.thewellnessintelligencecollective.com/posts/sphinx-to-cobra-with-shirlee-williams-this-weeks-exercise-snack
