It seems like such a funny phrase to say at 32 years old. “I am retired”. I don’t like it. I’d rather say, I am moving on to new projects. I’ll still be skating. Heck, I’ll probably continue to train quite a bit as well, simply because I love…
Welcome to my healthy living blog! You may know me as a 2-Time World Champion Figure Skater, Olympic Gold, Silver, and Bronze Medalist, and 7-time Canadian National Champion in pairs skating with my skating partner Eric Radford. But away from the ice, I am an animal loving vegan, a yogi, and a wife. I studied Holistic Nutrition with the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition and am currently finishing a Sports and Fitness Nutrition Certification with Alive Academy. My passion for Figure Skating has been part of my life since I was 3 years old, but more recently I discovered a new passion: Healthy Living!
Enter To Win!

Mental Training is a hugely important yet under-utilized piece of the training puzzle. In my experience, most of the struggles skaters experience can be minimized with consistent mindset training. Positive, intentional thoughts…

I’ve had a few days now to come done from the high I experienced in Regina over the weekend at Skate Canada International, part of the ISU’s Grand Prix series.

The soul always knows what to do to heal itself. The challenge is to silence the mind.

I’ve practiced yoga for a decade now. I started with the purpose of getting a…

The season officially started last weekend with the Autumn Classic International in Montreal. It’s odd to say this, but it was everything I hoped it would be, and my worst nightmare, all at the same time.
Our preparation for this event was great. We had our High Performance Camp two…

As summer training begins to wrap up, young skaters across the country are beginning their competitive seasons at local and provincial competitions. As a child, this was my favourite time of the year. I got to travel to the big city (Ottawa or Toronto) and compete against really good…
