I’m #hiring. Know anyone who might be interested?

The opening ceremony of Sacred Journey was an incredibly special day and we would like to thank everyone who came to celebrate this powerful exhibition with us. At Sacred Journey, presented by Vancity and supported by Amazon Canada, you can witness how Tribal Canoe Journeys have catalyzed the revitalization of Indigenous culture, community healing, and youth empowerment on the Pacific Northwest Coast. On now until February 2023.

So true! 🙌

Establishing a healthy relationship with your inner imposter means acknowledging what it's telling you without choosing to believe this message is true. You can even thank your imposter for doing its job (trying to protect you from embarrassment or failure): "I appreciate your concern, but this is important to me, so I'm going to do it regardless of what you say." Agility isn't about stifling thoughts of doubt or uncertainty. It's about acknowledging doubt, fear, or any other difficult emotion, and choosing to move forward with courage.

Spread the word, the #IPCAKnowledgeBasket is LIVE! Grateful to our partners at Conservation through Reconciliation for this incredible work.

Another lovely children story I had the opportunity to illustrate for author Abilene Snow at FriesenPress, Inc. Sunset Hugs addresses heavy topics, such as bullying, anxiety and depression. This story is a hopeful resource for children - and perhaps even adults - who have experienced adversity. Every chapter contains teachable moments and questions that can be used by the reader for further reflection and journaling. This children's book serves as a gentle guide for survivors toward healing and growth. Follow a bright-eyed puppy named Bubby transition from fear and insecurity into a confident, loving and happy dog. #growth #overcomingobstacles

Happy Father’s Day to all the father figures who provide their unconditional love and support for the wildest of dreams. ❤️ #fathersday
