  • Where Are You From?

    Where Are You From?

    “Where are you from?” If we’re travelling outside the country, of course the answer is Canada. (It’s fascinating to me that Americans always say the city they’re from if we’re doing some kind of group activity. So sure of their place in the world, never doubting we’ll have heard of it).   But, otherwise, I’ve…

  • Practising What I Preach…

    It’s been four years since I posted on this blog. Between then and now, I’ve been building my coaching business, helping people navigate pivotal chapters in their life and career. I always knew I would return to posting here again as it’s an important part of my own story. I just didn’t know when. Collaborating…

  • I Dwell in Possibility

    Hi! I’ve been pretty quiet here the last few weeks because I’ve been working hard on creating my business website, and now it is live! Please check it out here….https://kimberlyhall.ca Creating a website was a much more challenging project than I ever could have anticipated! I had big ideas for it, and I had to…

    A Sunny Spring Afternoon in Paris

    Healthy Mindset – Day 33 & 34 One of the great things about posting regularly on my blog again is that it’s making me go back in my photo library and think about the places I’ve been (I think I might have said that last week, too. It’s hard to keep track of the days!).…

    Notre Dame – May 2018

    Healthy Mindset – Day 25 Posting regularly on my blog again has meant reacquainting myself with photographs I haven’t look at in awhile, including the pictures I took of Notre Dame two years ago. As I mentioned the other day, climbing the narrow, winding stairs of the North Tower, was just a fun challengeq was…

    …some of the places I’ve been…

    Healthy Mindset – Days 20-23 It will be quite awhile before we are able to travel widely again, and while I have lots of thoughts about what it could be like, for now, I thought it could be a nice challenge to pick one picture from each of the places I’ve been lucky enough to…

  • A Year Ago Today

    A Year Ago Today

    Healthy Mindset – Day 18 Last year, at this time, I was on a two week trip to Italy with a week in Florence and a week in Palermo, Sicily. It seems like such a long time ago now, but a year ago today, we took a day trip to Segesta where the Temple is…

    A Memorable Day in the Great Bear Rainforest

    Healthy Mindset – Day 17 This photo is from one of my most memorable days ever. It was on a bear watching trip to the Great Bear Rainforest off the coast of northern British Columbia in June 2013. There were seven of us crammed in a zodiac drifting silently along hoping to spot this bear…

  • Sidewalk Messages Vol. 2

    Sidewalk Messages Vol. 2

    Healthy Mindset – Day 16 Who doesn’t like a compliment? As the weather gets warmer here, I’m looking forward to documenting even more sidewalk art and seeing more positive, hopeful messages like this. Looking for sidewalk chalk art in the neighbourhood has seriously brightened my days. Like, c’mon, look at little Charlie’s (I’m assuming he’s…

    listening to the waves (videos attached)

    Healthy Mindset – Day 14 & 15 My happy place is watching the sunset at Kaanapali Beach on Maui and listening to the waves…what’s your happy place? “Close your eyes and imagine you are lying down on an empty, warm, sandy beach. Hear the ocean waves crashing, sea gulls singing. Feel the golden sun rays…

    Healthy Mindset – Day 13 On an otherwise very blah day, this made my day….I don’t know Auntie Chan or Leo, but I love that she can look out her living room window and see this message! We are not in a full “lockdown” here, so going for a walk is still allowed. It’s essential…

    getting my hands dirty

    Healthy Mindset – Day 12 It was 12 degrees (celsius) on the weekend, and in the sun, it felt more like 25 degrees. That got me dreaming of gardening. Once the warm weather hits, I predict gardening is going to replace bread baking as the new “it” activity. I usually plant flowers, tomatoes and herbs…
