🏃‍♀️ 3 out of 5 youth with mental health challenges don't get the care they need. That's a lot of young people struggling without support.

I'm walking RBC Race for the Kids on September 19 — and Otto's coming with me. 🐕If you know Otto, you know she's a stubborn walker - but we're getting her outside for a good cause! Every dollar we raise goes to Sunnybrook's youth mental health programs.

🌸 Happy Mother's Day! 🌸

We wanted to share a campaign we love called "The Interview." It tells the story of a mom who walks into an interview and presents her time at home as something valuable, both at home and in the workplace: professional development in real-world problem-solving, multitasking, and resilience.

For those who've balanced motherhood and work—you know these skills are real. And for those just starting out, it's a good reminder that your experience as a mother has genuine value.

This Mother's Day, we're grateful for the moms in our lives and our communities. Thank you for everything you do.

Market swings have the squirrel in all of us a bit jumpy. But the turtle knows the secret—when you're invested for the long term, daily moves are just noise.

With Mother's Day weekend coming up, if you or someone you know is feeling stressed about market volatility, I'm here to talk through it. Feel free to reach out or share my name with a family member.

Here's to a peaceful weekend with family!
