“Mom, what were you like in the 90s?”
A starry-eyed high school kid.
The world was her oyster.
Then I lost my father almost overnight
And life forced me to grow up fast.
I was innocent, ambitious, heartbroken & joyful.

Professional keynote.
Serious PR call.
One tiny human with perfect comedic timing!
This is from a keynote I delivered at the Canadian Association of Professional Speakers’ annual convention. Speaking to the best of the best in the speaking industry - what an honour! 🙏🏽😊
I was today years old when I discovered the term, Twixmas, and I love it!
Rooted in the Old English word, “betwixt” meaning between, Twixmas denotes those quiet, often lazy days between Christmas and New Year’s Eve.
So this Twixmas, here is my wish for all of us…❤
#Twixmas
A little Breakfast Television #ThrowbackThursday from a fave campaign from my time at IKEA.
We created a “guide” for parents, for Back-to-School on how to get grown kids to fly the coop! IKEA then offered students free laundry as a reconciliation gesture! 😆

Thirty-four years ago today, I lost my dad and I miss him deeply.
I spoke about my dad in a podcast and in his honour, I'm sharing an except here. May his legacy keep impacting others.
Check out Ep. 8: Becoming Lotus with Tamara O’Shaughnessy on your fave podcast platform
Feeling deep gratitude for those who chose bravery and personal sacrifice to fight for the freedoms we have today. Their legacy reminds us that courage and purpose can change the course of history. 🙏🏽

If you’re not in a room with people who inspire you beyond imagination, find one, or build one! That’s what Tahani Aburaneh did with #BuildHER. A day of wealth, wisdom & heart energy. It was an honour to deliver my keynote there too.
Keep chasing horizons you can’t yet see!
People don’t just buy products, services, or pitches. They buy energy.
In fact, people read confidence long before they hear words. When you believe in your own value, others will believe it too.
Ready to build unshakable confidence for yourself or your team? Let’s connect. 😃
Pursue heart-driven work w/ people who fill your soul. ❤️
This is a throwback to my Colombia trip in 2016, meeting passionate entrepreneurs in an Opportunity International micro-loans program.
So grateful to have done this with Lisa Ferguson & Jennifer Brouwer!
