Hi there, I’m Nancy!
I am so happy that you found your way to Whispered Inspirations.
Whispered Inspirations was created to help the everyday person. Be it travelers, foodies, crafters, parents, and non-parents too.
On these pages, we hope you can find inspiration and spark your creativity.
One of my biggest passions has always been cooking and baking. I gravitate towards quick and easy meals that bring people together.
After all, the best memories are made in the kitchen or around the dining room table, right?
So the recipes shared here are easy, delicious, and made to be whipped up in a jiffy!
It’s one of the reasons why I wrote the “How-To Cookbook for Kids,” since I believe kids can be passionate about cooking too.
We travel as often as possible and have an insatiable case of wanderlust. The love of food and experience of culture goes hand in hand with travel.
If this sounds like you too, you are in the right place.
Here, you’ll find delicious recipes, amazing travel destinations, fun crafts, tips to make life easier, and ways to make the most of your favourite living spaces.
FEATURED IN:
We have amazing readers and because of them, Whispered Inspirations is a popular online lifestyle and travel magazine that is enjoyed by thousands of readers, followers, and subscribers each month.
Where the Magic Happens
More often than not, you’ll find me and my husband in the kitchen preparing meals together! We love to create new things together and enjoy yummy healthy food!
Check out my new kids’ cookbook, “How-To Cookbook for Kids: 50 Easy Recipes to Learn the Basics.” A great way to get the kids in the kitchen too.
Where You Can Find Me
When I’m not in the kitchen, you can find me spending time with our girls! I love sharing my day-to-day on Instagram, so be sure to connect with me there!
About Me:
Hello there, if you missed it, I’m Nancy. The writer, travel-junkie, and photographer behind this site. I am a journalist who worked in the space of scriptwriting in the early years before the days of social media.
For 8 years, I worked as a part of a nursing health care team in a long-term care facility. Now, over a decade later, I have the privilege to do all the writing, recipe development, and photography for this site full-time. To have the chance to share it all with you every single day is a true pleasure.
When I am not creating and editing content on here, you can find me on the Huffington Post, TODAY Parenting, and other publications.
Now, I’ve added another hat, cookbook author, and I’m so excited to continue writing more cookbooks.
I live in border city Windsor, Ontario (Rose City), and Detroit, Michigan.
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.
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.
Meet the Family:
You’ll notice that a big part of Whispered Inspirations is about 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 my lens.
This online magazine covers a lot of topics but, at its 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. Check out his car-related Insta, here.
He is heading the Men’s Lifestyle section of Whispered Inspirations and will be contributing more content geared towards men and dads.
Meet Gabby:
She is feisty, intelligent, and witty. This teen is the kindest spirit you will ever meet. Patient, generous and caring.
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. She is caring and always willing to lend a helping hand.
You’ll notice her across most of our channels, since she loves the camera!
Mimi will be creating more videos and continue to provide a kid’s point of view for Whispered Inspirations.
