Tomorrow, I enter a new decade. A new chapter of my life. I feel ready, excited and curious. I have big big dreams for this life of mine. I no longer feel I need to play small or that I need to apologize or dim my light for others. I long to be seen and to continue to give others permission to be seen in their own beautiful light. I’m ready to accept and be the inspiration others have told me I am for so long. I see it now. I feel it. And I wish for others to join me in finding what makes them too an inspiration for those around them. I am grateful for all the people who have been a part of my journey and who have allowed me to be a part of theirs. Today I hold so much love, appreciation, gratitude and compassion for all versions of me in these 40 years of life, for all the lessons, tears and laughter. I release it and step into the next part of my journey with open arms and an open heart. 40 here I come! #okotokssmallbusiness #calgarymentalhealth #yyctherapist #yyctherapy #okotoksmoms #grieftherapy #mentalhealth #yycmom #refections #birthdaygirl
The fourth decade of my life, my 30’s have been calmer and more predictable in many ways. It was during this decade I learned how to choose love and not fear, to open my heart even when terrified and feeling broken. It was a decade I learned we can live with grief and don’t need to be consumed by it or deny it. It was in this decade I met and fell in love with Kelsey, that we started our life together and became parents. Parenthood in many ways felt and continues to feel effortless, in those moments love is my driving force and external expectations and time limits are not at play. And in oh so many other ways parenthood has rocked my very core and turned my world upside down and taken all of my energy in a way nothing else ever has. There truly was no preparing for the all consuming exhausting and yet rewarding experience being a mom would be. It truly was in my 30’s that my career took off and I began to become more and more confident while walking with my clients in their pain. I continue to marvel at the trust bestowed upon me to be able to witness so many peoples intimate journeys. I have accomplished so many things in this past decade including writing and publishing my memoir, Soaring With Burnt Wings; starting my private practice, Illumination Therapeutic Services; and most recently starting my Podcast, Illuminate Heal Soar. I feel pride and awe at all I have accomplished both externally and internally in this last decade, and that I took the excruciatingly difficult lessons from the first 30 years of my life and have created so much beauty with it. #okotokssmallbusiness #calgarymentalhealth #yyctherapist #yyctherapy #okotoksmoms #grieftherapy #mentalhealth #yycmom #refections
The third decade of my life, my 20’s, is the one in which I learned so much about myself. I fell deeply in love with my late husband Cam, I learned what it looks like to loose yourself in that love, need to rediscover yourself all over, set boundaries, keep them even when it feels excruciatingly hard, make requests of people, ask for help from others, realize sometimes people will not live up to their promises or our expectations and we can love/accept/forgive them in their humanness too. I truly learned who I am and what I’m made of in my 20’s. I learned I was worthy of love and to begin to expect it. My heart broke more in that decade than any before it with the loss of Cam and far too many associated losses to list. I aged 80 years during that time and longed to have it be so different and devastatingly accepted the reality I was faced to live. I learned I could face my biggest fear and survive it, that made me dangerous in all the wonderful ways and gave me strength to know I could achieve all my dreams and nothing could break my spirit. I look back on that time and I weep for those horrifically difficult lessons I was asked to learn at such a delicate young age. But I am so so grateful to have had the opportunity to love Cam and all of his lessons as they have fuelled me and will continue to. I also recognize that my ability to sit with others grief without the need to fix it or make it pretty largely comes from learning to walk this journey myself. So many of the things that make me a great therapist ironically come from my darkest moments and my choice to survive and grow from them. #okotokssmallbusiness #calgarymentalhealth #yyctherapist #yyctherapy #okotoksmoms #mentalhealth #yycmom #refections #grief #grieftherapy
The second decade of my life was spent living in Calgary, Alberta with my mom to attend a specialized school for kids with learning disabilities, which thankfully allowed me to excel academically. It marked the end of my parents marriage, and the beginning of having two lives with my parents in different provinces/territories. It was the decade of unrelentingly high expectations on myself and intense self hatred at my inability to meet them on an ongoing basis. It was the time in my life my mental health was at its absolute worst and in many ways I’m surprised and oh so grateful I survived. It was a time in my life of such turmoil the idea of death was far more appealing then going on living. It was a decade I punished myself for being human and a time I would never wish to return to. It is a time I hold such compassion for my confused scared teenage self. This intimate understanding of the depths mentof self hatred and sense of hopelessness was my first motivator to become a therapist. I wanted to let others who felt similar as I did at that time know that they weren’t alone. And even now decades later I often pull on the knowledge I gained during that time and the ways I learned to survive while working with clients. #okotokssmallbusiness #calgarymentalhealth #yyctherapist #yyctherapy #okotoksmoms #yycmom #refections #SuicideAwareness #mentalhealth
I’m doing a lot of reflecting on the chapters of my life as I enter a new decade. Tomorrow, I turn 40. It feels like a privilege (cause it is) and yet surprising as I don’t feel as old as I used to imagine 40 year olds would. The first decade of my life, I spent with my mom and dad married and mostly living in the Yukon. I only have select memories from that time. I remember struggling in school, feeling stupid and having high anxiety. It was in that first decade my parents struggled to figure out why I wasn’t learning and what my particular brain needed to grow due to a variety of learning disabilities. I’m so grateful they didn’t dismiss it as laziness or a lack of interest on my part and truly sought the help I needed to learn. These struggles with learning and my choice to be vocal about them with clients and coworkers has allowed me to relate to my young clients who also struggle with learning differences. To offer hope that they too may learn how their brain works and achieve their own dreams. #refections #okotokssmallbusiness #calgarymentalhealth #yyctherapist #yyctherapy #okotoksmoms #learningdisabilityawareness #learningdisability #yycmom

Reflecting on my decade-long journey as the founder of @wishesandblessings , I am truly humbled by the transformation it has brought to me. Every single day, week, month, and year has played a crucial role in shaping not only the organization but also myself. It has been a roller coaster ride of expanding horizons, establishing new centers, witnessing countless smiles, navigating through challenges, and enduring heartbreaks. Yet, amidst it all, the journey has been incredibly satisfying and rewarding. IAbsolutely overwhelmed to share a glimpse of my beautiful journey through a few pictures. As I look forward to the next ten years, I'm filled with anticipation, eager to embrace the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead, knowing that each moment will continue to mould me into the person I aspire to become. . . . . #wbtimes #lifeatwb #wbfounder #ngofounder #lifeasafounder #ngos #delhingo #wbturns10 #birthdaymonth #10yearjourney #refections #gcspeaks #10years #rollercoaster

Fresh air and scents of Spring…hopefully we’re all waking up from winter hibernation…cocoon. Today, is Friday and Fridays are mixed emotion days for me, because I still have to work tonight…yet, weekend is near. I love just being at home, enjoying the early spring season. You can’t put a price tag on enjoyment. There’s a lot of stuff going on in the world and nothing grabs your attention then some of the news stories…like the guy setting himself on fire today at a Trump rally. I pray. I try to stay focused on the good in life and always move forward. I choose to believe in time, effort and energy to believe in all things work for the best. I pour myself into always giving it my all and to always love. Happy Friday. #treesofgreen #spring #aprilshowersbringmayflowers #fridayvibes #thoughts #refections

The magnificence of a magnolia. Biblically symbolizing "Honor and Glory" to God, the magnolia tree also means Magnificence. Magnolias are ancient and are said to be the oldest flowering plant. Varieties of magnolias are found around the world in many locales and cultures. The bark has been used for medicinal purposes for millenia. I breathe and smile when my magnolia tree flowers. It is Magnificent. #nature #calm #mindfulawareness #mentalwellness #psychologist #natureheals #magnolia #refections #positivity
