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!

Four Sigmatic Calm

How to put the end to a hard day? How about a nice mix of Four Sigmatic Mushroom Chai Latte, mixed with a packet of Mushroom Elixir Mix with Chaga?

Today wasn’t the best – my kids both have their typical February colds, and I had a therapy session that was both good and hard. (As anyone who works with a therapist knows, the hard is what gets to the good. You just have to get through the hard first.)

So this evening, the kids are in bed, my roomba is sweeping the living room, and I am going to take my Four Sigmatic and climb into bed and shut my brain off while I watch Criminal: France.

I adore my Four Sigmatic hot beverages when I need to relax and know that I am doing something that my brain and my body will thank me for.
