Its been over 5 years since I included any posts here. May of 2020 seems like a world away…. So, as some update, I thought I’d share some of what I’ve been working on –

I have been involved in personal development and evolutionary processes for over 26 years, and have studied and worked with my own mindset and clients long enough to know that we manifest or create our reality!
Hi everyone,
We are living in unprecedented times, and that requires an unprecedented ...

Ontario has recently enacted a regulation under PHIPA (Personal Health Information Protection Act) with more notification requirements for “health information custodians”. (O.Reg 224/17 was published June 29, 2017). The regulation comes into force on October 1, 2017.
