About Nancy:
Hello there, I’m Nancy. The writer, travel-junkie, and photographer behind this site. I am a multimedia and freelance journalist who worked in the space of scriptwriting in the early years before the days of social media.
I also spent 8 years working as part of a health care team in a long-term nursing care facility. When I am not creating and editing content on here, you can find me on the Huffington Post or TODAY.
I live in border city Windsor, Ontario (Rose City), and Detroit, Michigan. I share my humble abode with my tech and car-obsessed husband, Darasak, our two girls, Gabriella and Michaela.
I’m enchanted with books, candles, anything rustic or shabby chic, and PRETTY, of course. Vintage is something I cherish, so you’ll often find me antiquing to find my next prop or home decor. You can find our home-decor inspired Instagram, here.
I’m obsessed with anything Disney (Disney cruises, Disney World, you name it) and Universal Studios. Can we say the Wizarding World of Harry Potter? Obsessed. I believe that in life, we all deserve a little magic and both Disney and Universal do it for me.
Random Fact About Me: If you offer me the spiciest chicken wings, I will not refuse. It’s my kryptonite! Throw in a Coke Zero and I’m a happy girl.
Life as a mom, wife and small business owner can be exciting. Believe me, the days are never boring! While things can get hectic and sometimes crazy, I am blessed to do something that I am incredibly passionate about.
Not to mention, the chance to share it all with you guys every single day is a true pleasure. That is why I am passionate to share my favourite recipes, fun crafts, travel adventures, and tips that make life easier and a whole lot more fun.
You’ll find useful content for lifestyle, travel, recipes, tips, crafts, technology and more. It’s time to start living an inspired life, guys!
Press and Media:
I have a background in journalism and occasionally write for other publications either online or in print. Just in case you curious, take a look at the publications I’m featured in.
Furthermore, you can find me at the Universal Studios Blog as one of their Storytellers. To say I am proud to be an O Magazine Ambassador alumni is an understatement. Who doesn’t love Oprah?
I am also published online and in print on the Huffington Post, TODAY, Family Circle Magazine, Yummy Mummy Club, Savvy Mom, Blueprint Registry, Flight Network, and more.
Besides creating content, I am an aspiring photographer and videographer that loves anything tech.
I make it a point to learn something new every day.
For the past 12+ years, I’ve enjoyed sharing what I capture on Whispered Inspirations and as a social media influencer on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and Pinterest.
I love connecting on social media (especially Instagram and Twitter), so don’t ever hesitate to start a conversation, I am always up for one!
PARTNERS:
Meet the Family:
If you take a look at this page or on our social media channels, you’ll notice that a big part of it is my family.
They help me to share our experiences with the world. We are silly and try to live our best life every single day!
While my family is in the forefront, you’ll mostly find me behind the camera. It’s my happy place. I do, however, make appearances here and there but, I love sharing what I see through the lens.
This online magazine covers a lot of topics but, in the core, it’s geared towards anyone who shares the same passions that we do.
Most importantly, everyone is part of the Whispered Inspirations family here.
Meet Darasak
This is my dear husband Darasak. He is my biggest pillar of support and my best friend.
Darasak provides the occasional review on products and services for men, travel, Disney, gadgets and much more!
You’ll find him brandishing a GoPro wherever we go.
He assists in our photo and video shoots.
He is an ace in the kitchen and we often whip up recipes together.
When he isn’t helping here, you can find him sharing his love of food, travel, Dodge Challengers, and trying out the coolest car products on Instagram.
He is heading the Men’s Lifestyle section of Whispered Inspirations and will be contributing more content geared towards men and dads.
Especially since we do have gents that visit us here on Whispered Inspirations. You can read his first contribution: Men’s Skin Care Tips.
Follow along to see his work sprinkled through the site and for more fun content coming your way.
Meet Gabby:
She is feisty, intelligent, and witty. This teen is the kindest spirit you will ever meet. Patient, generous and caring. She is a blogger herself and you can find her on Always Gabby or on Instagram.
Gabby contributes video reviews on everything that involves a teen’s point of view on our YouTube channel, Whispered Inspirations TV. She tests out fun products, food, clothes and more.
She was Sunwing’s first Kidcationer and has been featured on national TV, print, and online. You can see her giving travel tips on CTV and sharing family resort packing travel tips on Global TV.
Gabs was featured in the Toronto Star on a full-page advertisement for Sunwing and online at Our Windsor.
She sure has the wanderlust bug and I can’t wait to see what else she will do in the future.
Meet Mimi:
Mimi is what I consider, my little genius. She’s feisty and keeps us all very busy. She’s her own little person and has a larger than life personality. She is the epitome of a tinkerer.
Always drawing, creating, painting and building something out of nothing. She has an amazing imagination and I hope she never loses that!
Above all, Mimi truly has a kind heart. It is one of the things that I love the most about her.
Mimi will be creating more videos and continue to provide a kid’s point of view for Whispered Inspirations.
