Insight on a Montreal Life and Business Coach 

Let’s face it we all go through some unexpected turns in life. Sometimes it’s harder than others to pull yourself out. You can’t use the same mindset to get out of a situation like the one you used to get into it. You need to start looking at things from a different point of view. You need to start making changes. You need someone to support you and hold you accountable for these changes.  This is when it’s a good time to consider a certified life coach.

What does a certified life coach do?

A certified life coach can guide you step by step to:

  • Get out of that place you are not happy in;
  • Get clear on your unique value and how to bring it forward with confidence in your life and business;
  • Remove and overcome roadblocks holding you back from what you are truly meant to do;
  • Build a life aligned with the essence of who you are and who you want to become;
  • Attract opportunities you love and that are right for you;
  • Establish strategies to ensure you are continuously taking steps towards your big picture vision;
  • Bridge the connection between your heart and your mind.

When you are clear on what you truly want and what is most important to you, and you build that purpose and your values into all that you do, you create a life that is truly joyful and you are excited to wake up to each day.

It is never easy to start a business, ask any entrepreneur that you know. They will tell you that their journey might be a bit lonely and full of surprises.

I worked with a lot of startups around Montreal and if there is one thing that I learned, no matter how good your idea is, the success of the startup depends on those who run it.

That being said,it is important for the founders and entrepreneurs to be in the right environment. It’s important that they find an environment that empowers and motivates; an environment where people can come together to support each other and help each other overcome any obstacles that come their way.

There are five Montreal entrepreneurs that have come together to create the First Female Co-Working Space, it’s called Lori.biz.

LORI hub will offer work space by shared office space (desks) and personal offices (2-4 desks). The hub can accommodate 22 entrepreneurs. Air conditioning, heating, internet and furniture, activities and workshops are included. Source: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/lori-hub/#/

This is a really great initiative and it is by ideas like this that we are reassured that our amazing city is growing and going in the right direction.

Check out their intro video that will give great insight on what LORI.biz is all about.

Join me in helping them make their vision possible by contributing to their crowdfunding campaign.

As a personal note, I’m looking forward to see lori.biz grow, and empower all women enterprises around Montreal.

Apple Orchard Not Far from Montreal

Apple Picking Montreal 2017

Where to go for apple picking? 

Here is a list of the 4 spots to go apple picking that are not far from Montreal.

Apple Pie, apple crumble, apple jam, apple everything… Fall is definitely apple picking time.

With the leaves turning as red as the apples, fall is the prime time to get out of the city and go enjoy some time in the orchards.

Although Montreal does not have any orchards, there are plenty of them right outside of the city! So grab a jacket, a picnic basket, a camera and some friends, and off you go for a day outside of Montreal!

1. Potager Mont-Rouge Halte Gourmande – Pick your fruits and vegetables fresh from the farm

Would you like to have farm fresh fruits and vegetables you pick yourself? Potager Mont-Rouge Halte Gourmande is the place to go.

You can get fresh apples, strawberries, corn, tomatoes, eggplant, pumpkins, hot peppers, basil, pickles, kale, brussel sprouts, okra, broccoli, and cabbage just to name a few.

Apple Orchard Not Far from Montreal

You can choose to pick them yourself fresh from the orchard or from their store. In their store you will also find homemade delicious apple potato donuts, spaghetti sauces, salsas, apple bread, honey, jams, apple butter, apple juice, maple syrup and a variety of tarts and pastries. Everything is made with a lot of love and care.

They even have workshops to show you how to preserve your tomatoes, make tomato sauce, fruit jams and more.

This is a place children love too! They have a small farm where you can feed the animals, a parc, a giant (huge) trampoline and a corn labyrinthe to enjoy. They will want to stay for hours!

Potager Mont-Rouge Halte Gourmande has received a lot of prizes and distinctions, here are just a few:

  1. Lauréat du prix DéfiOsentreprendre 2017, niveau local MRC de Rouville, catégorie bioalimentaire
  2. Lauréat prix Détermination 2017, concours LADN Montérégie

2. Vergers Petit et Fils

Address: 1020 Chemin de la Montagne, Mont-Saint-Hilaire, QC J3G 4S6

Right at the foot of Mont St-Hilaire, you can enjoy a lovely scenery while picking apples in their orchards. Enjoy tractor rides, animal farms, hedge maze and more. If you get hungry, set foot in the Petit & Fils Pancake restaurant and enjoy their extensive menu. Or just buy some apple product in their little shop and go enjoy it on their picnic tables right outside of the orchards (I highly suggest their apple bread and apple butter).
