It was not in her life plans to start a non-profit; she was going to be the youngest female forensic psychologist in Canada by the time she was thirty years old. She had plans to be wealthy, to have the in-ground pool and backyard she's always dreamed of, to travel with her husband and hold off on kids until she'd reached her career goals. More than anything, she had plans to make her dad proud. The future Dr. Kimmitt was well on her way to make it happen. Then she was faced with a bitter truth: Life is short.

*Please note this was recorded live at the event with many people in the background , the audio quailty reflects that, but I promise it's worth listening to! On June 16th, 2022, I had the opportunity to sit down with women at the Manifest Tour and ask them a few questions. The Manifest Tour was hosted by The Sister Brand and featured Kaitlyn Bristowe, Lisa Webb, Jess Tetu and Dr. Jody Carrington as featured speakers.

It was an evening of wine, food, and laughter and was a room full of like minded women who are manifesting their path to success. Listen to this podcast to hear what the women attending the event had to say about manifesting and what they think about women empowerment.

On today's episode, I attempted my first solo podcast lol! Since I started Dani + Madi, a women's clothing boutique in Spruce Grove, I get asked questions daily. I get asked questions on the boutique itself, life balance, and so many other things. So today I thought I would go through the top five questions that I get asked most often. A little behind the scenes of the business per se. Please enjoy and if there are any questions that you have that are not answered in this episode, please send them to me at [email protected] and I will answer them in another solo podcast. In the meantime, you can find Dani + Madi's online shop at www.daniandmadi.com, you can find us on instagram @daniandmadi and on facebook at daniandmadi.

Brenda is not usually one to talk about herself, but was once told to put herself out there, so here she is. She's a woman who carries her heart on her sleeve and her passion in her soul.

She's been married to her handsome, supportive husband, Nathan for 9 years and they have a beautiful almost 8 year old daughter named Kamryn. They are her world, they have her heart.

Brenda was diagnosed with a mental illness shortly after having her daughter, and quickly realized that was a gift. She also realized that taking care of her body physically was not number one, it was her brain, and she had a huge shift internally. Having the opportunity to lead women in fitness and wellness and creating wellness retreats is something she's truly grateful for, as all of the connection and drops of sweat ignites something in herself. When she sees it in another's eyes and watches their face light up, that is one of her proudest moments. It rewards her to see people smile and light up from the inside out. Empowering women and collaborating with community is where she's meant to be on her life journey. She is so grateful for the opportunity and connection.
