Congrats to my hubby @morganpcampbell on the launc Congrats to my hubby @morganpcampbell on the launch of his new podcast “Bring it In” with @cbc.sports. (Link in my bio)

What a year it’s been for you. You took a voluntary buyout from The Star & have never been busier. 

From writing for The New York Times to becoming a snr. contributor at CBC & then securing a book deal with @mcclellandstewart. 🔥

All while holding down our family while I am away working. Proud of you. ❤️

It’s Thursday, so let’s throw it back to 2007 It’s Thursday, so let’s throw it back to 2007 Rio, Brazil & the semis of the 100m hurdles at the Pan Am Games. 

This event was weeks before the World Championships in Japan, so it was risky to be there in terms of preparation & location. (Not all the big names showed up.)

But I didn’t care. Rio was a big piece of our puzzle. We needed to fortify my confidence before Worlds, which we had been painstakingly rebuilding after falling at the Olympics as the favourite in 2004. I needed to treat these games like my career depended on it. *My expression at the ends tells you everything.

*This race is part one of two parts I plan to post tomorrow/Friday.

Y'all know me, I am many things, TV host, Mama, Ol Y'all know me, I am many things, TV host, Mama, Olympian, Author, (lover of donuts & other food like substances 🤪,) but an IG influencer? Not so much.

@maisonbirks is an iconic jewelry brand & behind the scenes they have been a generous supporter of mine and the work I do on behalf of the women's crisis shelter, @thedenisehouse , (a place I lived as a child,) which works to end violence against women.

Bijoux Birks is honouring Canadian women who have fearlessly dreamed with the Birks Dare to Dream™ Collection and I am honoured to be pictured wearing the Birks Dare To Dream® Tri-Gold Diamond Ring and the Birks Dare To Dream® Tri-Gold Diamond Pendant. 

• 6,000+ women & children sleep in shelters on any given night because it isn’t safe at home.
(My family’s story.) 

• Indigenous women are killed at six times the rate of non-Indigenous women. 

• 67% of Canadians know a woman who has experienced physical or sexual abuse. 

I am honoured to nominate another woman who embodies what it means to "Dare to Dream." 

@claraannehughes is a tour de force, a Canadian sport icon & I am delighted to see her wearing a matching Birks Dare To Dream® Tri-Gold Diamond Pendant.

Clara knows how to go fearlessly after her goals, though what I admire about her is how fiercely she supports other women, lends her platform to many causes, including mental health awareness & lives in true allyship.  

Clara, you are a rare gem, you were one of the earliest supporters of my memoir & I’m honoured to have your name on its cover. I can't wait for our long trail walk my friend or dare I suggest a bike ride! *If I can keep up. 🤣💕

Follow @thedenisehouse to find ways to help women & children fleeing domestic abuse. 💜💙
