Sometimes I get filled up from camping and sometimes I get home and just want to be back in the woods.

Leading up to my talk last night, which fell at the very end of the line-up, I was energized, inspired, and humbled by the brilliant women who went before me. @helpinghandsapp Janelle Hinds who confronted racism and bullying from youth right through STEM and was never dissuaded from her mission. @bluebirdkwe ShoShona Kish, who'd I'd seen perform with her band @diggingroots in Huntsville in the summer, and is so much more than a performer - she's a legacy of matriarchy. @rowergirl24 Karen Collacutt taught us the importance of defining and improving our relationship with money, which I'd extend to all "things" made of energy in our lives. @humanizing_the_homeless Leah den Bok revealed, through stunning photography, the depth of humanity in those so often deliberately unseen. @sarainfox taught us about the layers that define us, or debilitate us, depending on who is doing the labelling. And @amyskymusic Amy Sky encouraged all to speak your vision and your desire to the universe so that it can take flight. Huge thanks to @ywcamuskoka staff for organizing such an important event. I'm hoping it's the first of many. I will hold this night in my heart. Thank you! 📣 #shetalks #shetalksmuskoka #ywca #womenwhogotthis #revolutionaries

Things you never knew you wanted... A blue cheese and beet grilled cheese sandwich! And the fries? To die for, natch. 🧀 #oakville #roadtriplife #dinnertime🍴 #withmymentor #nancyosborne #igotthis #igotthisspace #conferencelife #companyofwomen #journey2success #journey2dinner #yum #friesbeforeguys #gourmetgrilledcheese #cantbeetit

Had a moment of connection with this sunbathing sea turtle... I wonder if she was trying to tell me to get the hell of of the sun? Nah... It was about our spiritual sisterhood! 🌴 #Hawaii #bigisland #hawaiibetweenbirthdays #travel #roadtrip #oceanviews #volcanicrock #pacificocean #water #waves #crashingwaves #seaturtle #sisterhood #sisterhoodispowerful #turtlesis #wildanimals #naturalHawaii #gratitudemoment

Such an awesome interview with my mentor @nancyosborne_igotthis and @phallon_dunn! I love seeing her speak and share her experiences and Phallon asked great questions. Stop one on our adventure! 🎤 #me #nancyosborne #igotthis #igotthisspace #womenwhogotthis #phallondunn #interview #podcast #roadtrip #torontolove #torontothegood #speaker #mentorandmillenial #adventure

Something different for me - penne primavera. I didn't eat much but the leftovers were even better! Mother's day dinner at the Family Place with @donnas.rockgarden. Cheesy! 💐 #happymothersday❤️ #pastapasta #penneprimavera #vegetariana #dinnerwithmama #foodstagram #cheesypasta #lovemymom

How often do you get to stand on solid ground about the clouds? I feel this represents the perfect balance between having your feet planted on earth and your head in the clouds. This photograph reminds me of all the times I felt I was too stolid, too logical, too locked into reality - and all the times I felt like I was floating away, let loose inside my own head with no clear boundaries containing me. It makes me think of the search for balance, for stilling the swinging pendulum. What beauty, grace, and love lies in the middle of everything. ⛰ #Hawaii #bigisland #hawaiibetweenbirthdays #travel #roadtrip #maunakea #maunakeamoments #maunakeasummit #headintheclouds #feetontheground #mindfulness #gratitudemoment #seekerofbalance #metaphormoment #whoarewereally #lookup

That's a deep red mountain behind me! Just over halfway up #maunakea - I took a #selfiemoment and almost got blown over the edge! Well, not actually, but it felt that way. Once we reached the top, I broke down into tears because I became overwhelmingly afraid of falling off the side. In a way that's a good sign - it means I don't want to die. ⛰ #me #maunakeamoments #summiting #hawaiibetweenbirthdays #hawaii #panicattack #lifewithanxiety #brightsideviews #survivor #awilltolive #cantkillme #intrusivethoughts #rude #mountainhome #sacredmountain #aloha

A sea turtle! Perfect happenstance. Tell me about a time you took a "wrong turn" and experienced something amazing! ✨ #Hawaii #bigisland #hawaiibetweenbirthdays #seaturtle #turtlefriend #animalsarelove #wrongturnrighttime #serendipity #happenstance #seacreatures #prehistoric #seenonmywalk #kona #hiddengem #turquoisewater #sunbathing #metoosis

We missed the turnoff for a scenic lookout, so we drove on to a place to turn around... ⛔ And pulled into an unmarked, very beat-up road. 🤔 Decided to drive down and see where it led. That curious attitude had never steered us wrong before. 🏝️ We came to a parking lot and though there were a few cars, we didn't see anyone. We walked through a Koa forest and out to see the most turquoise water, lava stone, and white crashing waves that we could ever have envisioned. 😲 We'd been to many beaches and many golden spots, but having this space to ourselves for a time was something I will keep in my heart always. ♥ We even saw a sea turtle sunning herself on the sand! 🐢 Whenever you have the chance, go down the unmarked, beat-up road. Do the unplanned things. Make time for side treks and mistakes that never become regrets. ⚛️ And if you can find a person to do that with, thank her every day. Thank you, @kaikanuck. You are my lots. ⚢ #Hawaii #bigisland #hawaiibetweenbirthdays #travel #roadtrip #oceanviews #volcanicrock #pacificocean #waterislife #lovethoughts #allthefeels #philosophizing #myheartisfull #instagramwife #bykai #me #feelinglikeamermaid #lostonland #yardsaledress #bigheartvibes #notgoingback #youcantmakeme
