Ive always loved this photo of Supreme Court Justice #RuthBaderGinsburg. Strong, serious, beautiful with a little wink and nod to femininity. RIP Madame Justice. You will be missed and Im so thankful for the fights you fought for women everywhere. #icon

Three simple words but how often do you use them? Were sometimes afraid to hear the answer. Or dont want to weigh ourselves down with someone elses sorrow. But consider that by asking someone, Are you ok? gives them license to let out a little air, and by helping them, may make you feel a bit better too. So go ahead and ask. @thelisteningearproject #empathy @psych_today @easytherapy #isolation #grief #mentalhealth #iamhere #resilientpeople

Interviews are starting back up today . New guests, new stories on a new platform. Stay tuned. @editaud.io #interviews @weebly @gooddeathdoula #inspirational #resilientpeople

Sometimes our propensity is to run through and manage things quickly. Take time to do deep breaths. #wellness #wednesdaywisdom #resilience #breathe #resilientpeople

My main go-to when Im faced with something crazy going on is to step out of the moment and gain some perspective. Then line-up the steps to dealing with it. @FastCompany offers a short and really great article on more tips. https://fastcompany.com//6-ways-to-become-more-resilient-i... #howtoberesilient #innerstrength #perspective #copingskills #youcandoit resilientpeople.ca

Its a good life. Dont feel too bitter about difficulties, just deal with them the best you can. I had the privilege of talking with Holocaust survivor & public speaker Mr. Elly Gotz. We can learn so much from the wisdom of #elders.

Before my husband passed away we had many conversations about what life should be like after he died. The kids and I would travel, happiness would carry on and he even gave his blessing for me to date. That was a weird conversation but one Im glad we had together. Not living with brain cancer and the terrible ways it ripped our lives apart, I know hes in a better place. The kids and I are doing our best to move our lives forward. Adams never forgotten and will always be ...missed but hes moved on and we owe it to ourselves to do the same. I hope that with whatever youve gone through, you can take that experience and use it to learn, grow but not let it keep you from moving through life and finding happiness again. I recently heard this conversation I wanted to share with you. A grandfather said to his grandson, how long do you think youll be dead? And the grandson says, I dont know. The grandfather replied, A lot longer than youll be alive so do things that bring you happiness while youre here. #inspiration #advice #weekendvibes #resilience #resilientpeople #widow #widowlife #happiness #thisisgrief #bounceback #movingforward @GBMwidowsclub GBMTravelingCafe See more

As a post stated today, four years ago @thetragicallyhip played their final show in Kingston. The question was where were you watching it? My husband was feeling exhausted and didnt join me and our two friends at the @revuecinema in Toronto to watch it on the big screen. He stayed home, working tirelessly on a legal file that he was struggling with. I cant absorb what Im reading hed say to me.... I came home energized from watching the band and especially Gord Downie. I marveled at his performance while he was grappling with the effects of #glioblastoma. A word I had never heard until his disease went public earlier that summer. Little did I know that only a couple of weeks later, on September 1 2016, my husband Adam would be diagnosed with the same disease. I watched Gord Downie so closely on-screen and in the months to follow, only to find out that his life would eventually mirror own own. Life can take some crazy turns. #gorddowniebrainfund @sunnybrookhsc #odettecancercentre @braintumourfdn #braincancerawareness #neurooncology @adamfanakibrainfund @gordsinclairmusic

Being resilient doesnt just affect your personal life but its necessary for business too. In this pandemic, Ive read so many encouraging stories about business owners pivoting to stay afloat and keep their companies viable.

Grief can look like many things. When youre the one who experienced the loss, you can wake up in the morning with a different mindset than how you end of the day. Be patient and "show yourself grace".
