June 15, 2025

Hello friend,

We’re celebrating Father’s Day with some brands that have special connections to the men in the founders’ lives.

Meet a woman who gave up law to join her mother and father in the food business. They have a product about to launch that will make your next cocktail party a hit!

Learn how one founder’s father gave her the confidence to quit her job to pursue a passion. Her business is named after him and your life will be better for it.

Find out how a woman and her partner set out to make a better spray deodorant that is actually used for much more than body odour.

And two of our favourite fashion brands are teaming up for a pop up in Toronto. We can’t wait!

This week’s issue of the newsletter is sponsored by Quince, the fashion and homewares brand that promises the quality of a luxury brand at affordable prices. Be sure to check it out.

Enjoy! 

 You could mull your own strawberries to make this daquiri. Or you could buy the no muss, no fuss product that tastes like you did.

The founder behind these products wants to enrich your life with clean laundry and clean detergent. Her father inspired her to follow her dream.

Deodorant and room spray in one? This is not a typo! It works for men and women and the scents are so good, you will spray it everywhere!

Watch this space for five quick things to make your life a little richer.

Look who is popping up in Toronto! Happens to be two of our favourite fashion brands. Amanda Maria and Modern Sunday at the same place and the same time! We will be there!

Father’s Day calls for a dinner with all of his favourite foods. We found a list of great recipes that will inspire your menu tonight.

We love a story about a woman who goes against the grain. Nicole Coenen is a wood chopper. She works alongside a group of men she refers to as a “bunch of grandpas.” She’s teaching them as much as they teach her,

Need some books to add to your reading list? Here are 24 Canadian books that represent fatherhood on Father’s Day.

We did a thing! Last Thursday we hosted an event in Oakville and you showed up to support the woman-owned brands we invited to showcase their products. We also raised money for Armagh House, a charity that offers support and housing for women escaping violence. When women support women, good things happen!
