<p>We got a lot of snow in Montreal over the past week and I did a little too much shoveling. I tweaked my back, but thank goodness for a great physio. I&rsquo;m not 100% yet, but at least I can tie my shoes now lol.</p>
<p>And with that, another week, another newsletter. Let’s get to it!</p>

<p>There&rsquo;s been a lot of layoffs lately which is causing stress for a lot of folks. If you know someone who was affected or is worried about job uncertainty, just ask them if they want to talk and be a good ear to them. 💜</p>
