Originally intended to simply focus on book reviews, over time, KaliDesautelsReads has morphed into its own entity. I write about issues that are near to my heart, be they political, feminist, motherhood, mental health, or, as the title holds, books. A thirty-something Canadian woman in my mid-thirties, I have been “super married” to my high school sweetheart since 2006, and together we have two crazy, clever, kind, hilarious, wonderful kids. My first book – How Not To Blog: Finding Myself, One Post at a Time is available on Amazon (in eBook formats for you clever tech readers, and paperback for those of us who love that new book smell!) I have tried a podcast – it’s still on Apple and Google Podcasts – but writing is where my heart is. My life changed dramatically when my husband was diagnosed with Stage 3 cancer in 2018, and I am now a writer for a leading Canadian Cancer Non-Profit. I am lucky enough to have a family that loves me and pushes me to be my best, even if it is outside of my cushiony comfort zone. I have a village of friends that nourish me, mentally, and spiritually. Welcome to my thoughts. Sit down. Stay a while. Enjoy a cup of coffee!

Thank you, Rach, for keeping me on the path!

This one is for all of my dreamers and hustlers and doers and builders who are feeling discouraged today. This is for anyone who feels like they keep trying and trying and not getting anywhere. This is for anyone who wants to give up right now because it’s taking too long. It’s not taking too long! It’s taking exactly as long as it’s supposed to! I started blogging in 2008… I started the business I blogged about in 2005. You’re looking at 13 years of hustle— not to mention the 22 years of dreaming before that. Your legacy won’t be built in six months or even a few years but you’ll never know who you can become if you don’t KEEP GOING!!! 👊🏻 Go watch the full motivational video through the link in my bio! #GirlWashYourFace #hustleandheart #MadeForMore #rachelhollis #legacy #build #grow #inspire #hustle #inspo #motivate #motivation #quotes #followforfollowback #followfollow #followers #wcw #followers #fff #womancrushwednesday #kalidesautelsreads
