My Favorite Tools

Products I use to be a badass adult

Borrowell

Borrowell is the first company in Canada to provide Canadians with their credit score and reports FOR FREE.

They offer the ability to track your score every week, as well as financial product recommendations based on your credit, a Credit Coach, and more to help you with your financial health, on a one-stop user-friendly app.

Sun Life - Life Insurance

In as little as ten minutes, you can receive a quote and apply for coverage.

Sun Life Go gives you the flexibility to meet health and financial needs with convenient access to insurance coverage.

you.

Moka

Moka is a Canadian app that rounds up every purchase that you make and places it in an investment account of your choice.

Moka automates investing so there’s no lifestyle change, minimum investment or
investing experience required, and you can open an investment account with your cell phone.

Contigo Travel Mug

We should all own a travel mug at this point. My parents have one, my sisters have about 235 of them, I have 3. These travel mugs keep your coffee warm, even after 8 hours (tested and confirmed by me!), and are easy to wash.

Hamilton Beach 2-Way Brewer Coffee Maker, Single-Serve and 12-Cup Pot

I don’t understand how some people don’t need coffee in the morning. This is the coffee machine I use, and I love single-serve option for travel mugs.

Rubbermaid Brilliance Storage Containers

You know you’re an adult when you’re excited about storage containers. These are the ones I used for my lunches when I work from the office. You can even put soup in and they won’t leak! So exciting!

Crock-Pot 6 quarts

Slow cookers are a life-changer when you hate cooking, like me! Just throw your ingredients in there, set the slow cooker at slow for 6-8 hours, and dinner will be ready without any effort! My parents have this exact model and they love it.

Behind the Scenes

Stuff I love and use

Blue Yeti USB Mic

Whether I’m recording podcast episodes, videos for my channel, or playing video games with my husband, I use my Blue Yeti mic. I’ve had it for years and I’m not ready to change it!

Phil & Sebastian Coffee Roasters

Yes, I drink Folgers or President’s Choice coffee in general but sometimes, I do treat myself. Phil & Sebastian Coffee Roasters are located in Calgary, Alberta (Canada), and oh my, you’re not ready for their amazing coffee.

MomAgenda

I absolutely LOVE MomAgenda. I cannot go about my day without my planner, or I will forget everything. And you don’t have to be a mom to use them; I’ve been buying MomAgenda’s day planners since I was in university!

Pixistock

Do you like all the images and graphics I use for this blog? Pretty much every image comes from Pixistock, a stock photo platform that gives you access to beautiful and empowering images for your business, templates, and much more.

Corsair K55 RGB PRO XT Keyboard

When I’m not working, I’m playing video games. Sometimes, late at night (who am I kidding, I’m in bed by 10 pm…). I absolutely love my keyboard and highly recommend it!

L-shaped Computer Desk

I don’t understand how I spent so many years without an L-shaped desk.

I now have enough space for my monitors, keyboard, printer, day planner, and I still have space left for a plant and for taking notes.

Multi-Purpose Portable Carpet and Upholstery Cleaner

My friend told me about this portable cleaner. I don’t think you realize how much you need this with young children… Like when they decide to break a dozen of eggs on your fabric sofa…

Indigo

Indigo is my favorite Canadian bookstore that offers more than books: home decor, gift ideas, lifestyle items, even wedding accessories, and items for your baby registry!

Road Trip Essentials

Whether you are hitting the roads as a couple, with friends, or with your family, make sure to be fully prepared for any situation and enjoy your trip to the fullest! Read more about solo road trips and road trips with children!

Car Roadside Emergency Kit

Situations happen on the road. Make sure you are ready for anything with this Emergency Roadside Kit.

First Aid Kit

Be prepared to treat minor medical situations by having a First Aid kit on hand. Keep it in your trunk all year long! You never know when you’ll need it.

Fuel Can

On a road trip, you should always aim to gas the car once the tank is half-full. In case of emergency, keep a fuel can in your car if you end up running out of gas.

USB Car Charger Adapter

I’m not sure if cigarette lighters still exist in modern cars but there’s one in my 2013 SUV and I use this adapter to keep my phone charged on the road, whether I’m driving to the grocery store or heading on a road trip.

Portable Phone Charger

It’s always useful to have a battery pack on hand, but especially in your car or when you travel. Make sure to charge it before you go on the road!

Fire 7 Tablet

After my son dropped his dad’s iPad on the concrete floor of our basement, we decided to buy our kids one tablet each. Parental controls and peace of mind won us.

Fire 7 Tablet kids-friendly case

Remember that iPad on the concrete floor I’ve just mentioned? We tested this case, with the tablet inside. This case is Liam-proofed. Highly recommend.

Kids headphones with safety volume

The volume and decibels of these headphones are appropriate for children, so you know their ears won’t explode.

My son was rough with them and they are still functional 2 years later!

Dog Car Seat Cover for Back Seat

Whether you are travelling with your dogs or your children, trust me, you NEED this car seat cover. I cannot stand the sight of crushed Cheerios and Bear Paws in my car.

Car Seat Travel Tray for kids

This is probably one of my favorite items for road trips. This travel tray comes with a lot of storage space, a cup holder, a transparent pocket for the tablet (with a hole for headphones). Plus, they are machine-washable.

Reusable Snack Pouches

Instead of buying snacks at the gas station and throw away the plastic wrapping, stop by a grocery store and buy larger quantities of snacks. These pouches are perfect for toddlers and older kids, they are machine-washable, and they make you more eco-friendly!

Reusable Bamboo Travel Utensil Set with Case

Say goodbye to disposable utensils and start using reusable items. I love this brand (from my home province, Quebec!). Easy to use, easy to wash, and easy to store. Make sure to get a set for every member of your family, for lunches at school, or for summer trips!
