Don't Mind If We Do

*EP 38 is sponsored by Breakwater Law. Best Lawyers in Victoria so go check them out at www.breakwaterlaw.ca!

This week I have my friend Janis Carmena joining to share a bit about what it's like living with PTSD ( if you are a first responder and struggling with this- make sure to look into www.woundedwarriors.ca for support). Janis has been a Police Officer for 18 years, so you can imagine the stories and events she has been through in this career path. She shares with us some of those experiences.

She also bought a massive boat and became a you tuber. This woman is on fire! We met years ago at an Ewomen Network event. She's awesome but don't just take my word for it, listen to the episode to hear more!

Her you tube channel is www.youtube.com/onboardtangaroa so make sure to go check it out and follow their boat life adventures! www.onboardtangaroa.com

Today we sampled nothing since Janis brought her steeped tea from Timmies haha until next time......

Thanks for listening xoxo Chelsea

My client/neighbor/friend joins us today to chat about her experience in the military for 25 years! She kicked ass, commanded the ships and also potty trained her cat!

We sampled (and by sampled I mean we drank the whole bottle) of a non local red wine! Yum! Wine is more fun with friends :)

Michele is now back in school for leadership training and is an all around inspiration! I am so happy and grateful to have met her and can't wait to go to Paris with her!

Hope you enjoyed this episode and thanks for listening!

This episode is a special one for me! My past clients (and friends) Lisa and Tara join us to tell you all about their Boudoir Experience with Vintage Chic Portrait, in Victoria BC.

But first, we sample Apple Cinnamon Crumble Vodka Spirit- SO good! Tastes like an apple pie (without the sugar and add vodka!)

To find out more check out https://www.wizespirits.com/our-flavours.html#solo-series

Lisa and Tara both had a session with me last year in January. Listen as they tell their reasons why they booked, how they felt throughout the experience and what they took away from it!

What I get to see daily in my studio is transformations, and not from drab to glam, but life transformations-from feeling less confident to feeling like an absolute queen that can take on the world.

Hope you enjoy this episode and to find out more about what a Boudoir Experience would look like for you:

*We sampled today a delicious Pink Grapefruit Gin Seltzer https://provincialspirits.co/ out of Port Coquitlam! Highly Recommend!

After the super long couple of years, an In Person event is extra exciting and all the local businesses involved would love your support so head over to www.victoriawomensexpo.com to grab YOUR tickets- it's 2 for 1 and only $5!! There will be so many amazing vendors, prizes and speakers! If you go find Virginia and mention THIS episode she will give you $10 to go shopping with so that's a WIN!! Events like this take so much behind the scene talent to put together and have run smoothly and Virginia is the QUEEN of it!! Not only is she awesome at what she does, she is a woman that will fix another woman's crown. She's just a lovely human and I am so happy I could have her on the show!!

Join us as we bid a sad farewell to Robin Farrell who is moving on to bigger and better things...jk there's nothing better than Don't Mind If We Do but Ontario is certainly bigger...I think.
