Welcome to my little corner of the internet.

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!

Beach, Please!

Beach, please!! If you know me, you know there is almost nothing I like more than a good pun.

This morning, I missed my fitness class with my friends, but instead of calling it a day, eating a box of double stuffed Oreos, and crawling into bed with my book, I have come back to get my yoga on. It has been so helpful to my peace of mind (which has been freaking hard to come by lately) to get my walks in, and to come to my mat. Tomorrow morning, I will have my first training session at Nacc Fitness, trying to establish some semblance of health and normalcy. I am pretty proud of myself for eating one Oreo and trying again, rather than giving up on the day.

Namaste, y’all, namaste.
