Middle aged woman reading book

If you've been following my work for a while, you will know that I am passionate about writing about women in midlife.  I am known mostly for eating disorders counselling, but I could just as easily call myself a perimenopause counsellor or menopause counsellor as I work with these issues so often. In the … [Read more...] about Esther Recommends: Making Sense of Menopause

In Memory of my Father-in-Law, Alan Richman

19 June 2022 by Esther Kane

Sadly, I have experienced my fair share of loss over the past four years. My heart broke when I lost my maternal grandmother Ruth in April of 2018: https://www.estherkane.com/in-memory-of-granny-ruth-on-mothers-day/ That was soon followed by the death of one of my fur babies, Ike. And then, a few months … [Read more...] about In Memory of my Father-in-Law, Alan Richman

Happy Mother's Day

I wrote an article for Mother's Day of 2021, and have tweaked it slightly for this Mother's Day in case you didn't read it last time. I want to dedicate an entire post to my own very special mother- whom I call "mum" because my family is from London, UK, also known in her own right as Marion Kane.

Wilted flowers on gravestone

Above is a compilation of my favourite pics of my darling Siberian kitties, Abe (grey) and Ike (white) during the blessed years we had to enjoy them.

Life is Too Short for One-Ply Toilet Paper

5 December 2021 by Esther Kane

Toilet paper

Because of all of the wildfires and excessive heat waves of late, my husband and I have been discussing how we can do more to help heal the planet. We have some ideas on how to help in a more political and global sense and are attending to those and we are also attempting to incorporate as many small efforts … [Read more...] about Life is Too Short for One-Ply Toilet Paper

23 May 2021 by Esther Kane

Fierce

Well folks, I recently turned the big 5-0 and am glad to be on the other side of teetering on the edge between two decades. I feel like I am finally on terra firma and it feels really good.
