My sister is my expert opinion, my life coach and my personal confidant. When I lived in Toronto for University, we would spend some weekends together either in the city or in Hamilton chatting about our plans for the future, our crazy family and our problematic relationships. When I moved abroad, she was the first one to come visit me, and I love her to death for that. She’s bold, tenacious, kind and honest. I'm lucky to have someone so caring have my back.

I met Tiffany when I was working and she was a customer - I felt an instant connection to her and the rest is really history. Tiffany and I have been long distance besties since forever, and even when we go months without talking, one of us always messages and it’s like no time has passed. The beautiful thing is we always meet each other where we are in life without conditions, and embrace growth and change in each other.

I met Amy working at Cosmic Design. I remember interviewing with her and knowing she was special - and I remember telling my boss “She has an award winning personality and attitude, and you can’t learn that.” Which in retrospect sounds like a confession of love more than a work recommendation, which makes sense considering she is one of my best friends today. Amy is kind, generous, loving and a beautiful soul.

Sarah is one (of many) friends that I've been lucky to meet through Gav's fitness studio Hitsona. Her partner, Rory started working for Gav over a year ago and Sarah and I immediately bonded over everything from a Harry Potter obsession, to the game Animal Crossing. Beyond that, she happens to be one of the sweetest people I know, who truly wants the best for others.
