TORONTO!

One of my newer mantras is: “you’re alright.” Looking back at the whirlwind of events lately, I can honestly say that’s exactly how it feels.

From celebrating my grandma’s birthday with her and the family 🥹 to reconnecting with so many of you at the summit — so much cool s**t has been happening.

We’ve been having some amazing convos and insightful one-on-ones. Over the past couple of days, I got so many questions answered… it’s wild!

Friends, I even got to catch up with Shantel Noel (). Y’all, we met when I was a university student just starting my career in the music industry, and now she follows my agency’s page… like wahhh!

Huge thank you to for creating such an amazing week for all of us to gather, and s/o to and the rest of the team.

Let’s do it again! 😝

Been thinking a lot about what being a hometown hero really means to me. Attending opened my eyes to the true value of that concept. From the way is respected and admired in Edmonton, to the incredible career has built here in Alberta, and even watching the exciting expansion phase .carey is in - it all reminded me that roots aren’t something to fly away from. They’re the firm foundation that makes it possible to soar.

Thank you .carey for gifting me a seat at the table, and congratulations to on your 11th annual event! Enjoy !

Things, people and such. 💜

I am no longer rushing to arrive. I’m learning how to stay.

That is the biggest lesson 2025 has taught me. Your girl finally realized that we don’t need to do it all at once, and we don’t need to rush to get there. The way that I’ve grown to be content with the direction of my business and life. I am no longer thirsty for what’s next, but content with the flow of today and the now.

So if this is a reminder of anything, let it be this: make sure your fly is done up, because you never know which lesson God is about to teach you next. 😂✨
