I didn’t know it at the moment, but time and disappointment would remind me that you are my miracle baby. Born on a night much like tonight, a winter storm thick with snow and ice my warm and welcoming baby would pop onto the scene and bring more joy than I could ever explain. Happy birthday to my ace. Harlowe there is no one like you and there never will be. Keep being you, unapologetically. Keep challenging, keep growing, keep laughing, keep loving. You brought a family torn apart right back together again and there is nothing we won’t do for you. I love you my miracle baby. Forever and always. Thank you @mumcoco for sending this video over 🖤

#Ad The best thing that’s happened to my dry hair and scalp? The Head & Shoulders Supreme Purify & Hydrate Collection 💫 My scalp was getting extra itchy, to the point where I was beginning to see flakes on my knits. I started looking into how to care for my scalp and realized how much I’ve been neglecting this part of my skin. I’ve been using the Head & Shoulders Supreme Collection for the past few weeks and I can already see a difference, my scalp is no longer dry and my hair feels super soft and hydrated. Plus, I love that it's free of phosphates, parabens, phthalates and dyes. My holy grail from this collection is the Supreme Exfoliating Scalp Scrub, it’s like a detoxifying face mask for your scalp. The exfoliating beads in the formula melt away so smoothly making it easy to rinse out. I use a ton of dry shampoo, so this scrub is perfect to get rid of all the buildup quickly ✨ Click the link in my bio to give it a try! #ScalpCare #HeadShoulders #SupremeBeauty #HairCare #ParabenFree

So you want to be an influencer? Or get your business noticed on Social Media? This podcast episode is for you! This week on CWC + Friends, we sat down with @torontoshay who shares the in's and out's of what it takes to become an influencer and grow an organic following ✨ I’ve known and worked with Shannae in so many ways over years and her true collaborative spirit and willingness to share information is beyond inspiring. Shannae has always been destined for greatness because she not only has tenacity, she has incredible work ethic and whether she was working in corporate, or blogging and building online and offline communities, she has a determination like no other. Check out the pod to listen to Shannae share her journey of how she went from freelance blogger to sales at #Rogers to #Macleans Mag, to starting her own business with her husband @kensingtongrey. An agency that prides itself on being rooted in diversity, way before it was #trending. Shannae let’s us all in on what it takes to cultivate a community whether you have 500 or 50,000 followers. She is refreshingly transparent about rates, partnerships and how to set yourself apart when negotiating for that 🥖 Click the link in my bio to listen now!

We snuck out of the city a few weeks ago when our schedule opened up and @ellhousepec (a place I’ve been dying to stay at) had an opening. Though I had resisted wanting to venture back to #PEC since I went awhile back with my dear friend @mllebernard and we encountered some atrocious racism, we gave it another try. I’m happy to report that much has changed since we last went and I’m glad we gave it another try. ELL House is located on 2.5 acres of waterfront land just 5 minutes from Wellington and the beach. The house sleeps 8 with 4 bedrooms, 1 king, 2 queens and one room with bunk beds. The kitchen has all the equipment you need and the design is so thoughtful, they even stock @aesopskincare in their washrooms! I had been super stressed and this house melted it all away for me. In the mornings it was still warm enough to open the huge retractable windows and let the sun beam in while I read a book and listened to the waves crashing in. We went into the charming town and were welcomed by lovely shop owners and even found an alpaca farm that Harlowe LOVED. My girl is obsessed with alpacas 🤣 Though I’ve never really considered Ontario as the place to vacation, the pandemic has opened my eyes to the beauty that lies all around us. I’ve now made a list with Ell House and a few more spots I’d like to visit in our pretty province. Growing up in a small town as one of the only minorities I carry some PTSD. It’s important to note that not every vacation destination is open to everyone even though it appears so. Though I was nervous to head back to The County I’m so happy to see some change starting to happen. If you’re looking to escape, check out my list on the blog, Link in bio. If you have any places you like to visit, let me know! We love a recommendation ♥️
