I don't want my kids to be raised thinking they'll get into a park and people applaud.
I used to stress out if I wasn't attaining my goals by their due date, but not anymore.
There's such an aura around the Trudeau name and I understand that. But it's also so weird for me because I'm still a normal bride and, you know, it's a clichΓ© to say, but Justin is just my Justin.
I've know Justin since I was a child. I went to school with his younger brother Michel, who died in the Avalanche. But Justin and I are four years apart - when you're 12 and 16, it's worlds away. I always thought he was handsome though.
I have lots of athletes in my family and they showed me how to waterski - slalom, barefoot - all that stuff.
I don't make much of comparisons in general, it's not how I think people construct themselves and I don't think it's a healthy way of dealing with your own reality.
Whatever things you go through, you stay true to who you are and your core values.
My daily life is mostly spent with my three kids and raising them.
When human beings distance themselves from their own inner truth and the truth around them, we can't see ourselves in our true light and that is to our detriment.
Yes, I talk about eating disorders and you know, excessive dieting and excessive exercising can be a sign of a mental illness... but when we talk about eating disorders... the issue is not the food or the exercise, the issue is a lack of healthy conception of self. That is the issue.
Women's empowerment for me means knowing your rights, having the facts, knowing the truth about what is happening out there, here in our own country and the condition of women throughout the world.

I organize everything. The kids' lunch to the finances to the spending to the house, groceries, everything.
We all want equality, we all want to be loved, we all want to have the full potential and opportunity to grow and to participate fully in our societies.
It is proven that when women enter the workforce and find their full potential, their families are healthier, there are more opportunities for women, there's an impact economically, psychologically, physically on our society at large.
We're liberals, so quitting is not an option. We will push through the hard days so we can celebrate together on the good ones.
My mom - For me, she has the spirit of an angel. She's a healer without even knowing it⦠She's beautiful inside and out. She doesn't know she's that.
A healthy lifestyle includes exercise, nutrition, healthy sleep patterns and a healthy group of friends.
Canada truly understands that girls and women who have access to a safe and high-quality education is a priority.
So, obviously, on International Women's Day, we are honoring the achievements of women, but gender equality and feminism cannot evolve in our humanity if we're not bringing our boys and men along.
