Top Career Options for Those Who Love Water Sports


It’s natural to want to turn a beloved hobby into a viable career option, especially if you’re young and trying to decide which career path to take. If you’ve been honing your strength and skill with a particular water sport for the majority of your life, then you’re probably wondering what you can do for a career to support this. 

Here are some great career options for those who love water sports. 

Sport Instructor

With any water sport comes the need to learn, and you could put your skills to good use by helping and teaching others to learn and participate in any chosen water sport. You could aim to become an instructor of a specific sport, or perhaps you’d like to try your hand at a few if you’re skilled at more than one. 

Instructors can open up their own instructor business so that learners can hire them privately for lessons, or you could see which opportunities are available in water sport hotspots, such as vacation complexes or those businesses at beaches or lakes. 

Furthermore, you can even offer instruction for other water sport activities, such as jet ski or boat hire, if you’re also skilled in sailing or using water equipment. 

Lifeguard 

If swimming is where your strengths lie and you’d like to turn your skills to having more responsibility for others (as well as spending all your time by the water, whether at a pool or the ocean) then a lifeguard could be a valuable career choice. 

This is a great option for those who already lead a highly active lifestyle and want more of an incentive to keep it up in order to pass their physical as a lifeguard!

Play Professionally 

Maybe you have athletic dreams of playing professionally in your favourite sport. A good way to develop your skills and get noticed is through seeking out scholarships for water sports, like with asmscholarships.com. This will help you to study and progress in your chosen field in order to work towards a professional athletic career. 

Swimming Instructors 

Maybe you’d like to work at a local pool and give swimming lessons to those who need it. You could teach children and adults alike in providing private or group lessons to assist people in learning to swim. 

Water Aerobics 

You may have had dreams about becoming a fitness instructor, but want to stick close to the water. Becoming a water aerobics instructor is a great way to help people keep fit whilst being able to spend time in the water. 

There may be opportunities for water aerobics anywhere, such as local indoor pools, outdoor pools or even opportunities in other countries, such as classes offered at hotels, vacation complexes or on cruise ships. 

Final Thoughts 

Looking for a career tailored around water sports can open up many opportunities for you around the world. As water sports are so popular, both as a healthy pastime and as a vacation activity, there will always be opportunities to put your skill and passion to good use.

The Spa Girl Life Is A Total De-Stresser


Lately many of my friends have been telling me they are so stressed. The way the world has been going the past few months it isn’t hard to understand.  There are So many uncertainties and fears.  We have been locked down, some are unemployed still, some not able to make their rent, some uncertain when their job will open and if it does how will they handle their children’s hybrid school schedule! It is not surprising that some friends are getting anxious. When I am feeling anxious I put on music and burn candles. The Spa Girl Life candles are perfect for this uncertain, stressful time. They come with stones that are paired with the scent of the candle and I am so into it!

The Spa Girl Life, a newly launched NAPPA award-winning luxury and vegan candle brand, is the perfect gift solution for anyone looking to unwind and de-stress. Their new fragrance and stone pairing, Cosmic Karma with Amazonite, offers the natural and fresh scent of eucalyptus and mint to promote clarity, inner peace, and relieve any grief or sorrow. This candle boosts clarity, mindfulness and relaxation and is the perfect gift for any special occasion. Added bonus, you’ll also love smelling it when he burns it around the house! 

 Not only are they great smelling candles and come with accompanying stone but they also have a little gift card and guided meditation with each candle. 

I truly love it and my husband loves that it doesn't smell too "girly". It's funny because he never mentioned this before.  Who knew?

Skoon Is The Purrfect Cat Litter


As an owner of 3 cats, a pet sitter and avid volunteer at an animal shelter I can tell you that the biggest concern for cat owners is the litter box. It was why my husband didn’t want more cats in the house after we lost our cat baby years ago. My kids always asked for a pet and since I knew how much work was involved with owning a dog I kept my hope up for a cat. As soon as the kids and I started working at the shelter my husband knew we would eventually have one. He never planned for three but that is how it goes. 


We are quick to clean the litter box so there are no complaints from my husband with cat smells but there will always be some smell especially if you are out and they use the box. I have tried many litters over the past few years but last Saturday we tried Skoon and I am so happy we did!


Skoon is the litter brand that understands that while loving your cat is easy, cleaning that designated kitty bathroom is a whole other story. 


Skoon makes non-clumping litter “purr-fectly designed” for feline odor control and super easy maintenance for human convenience. Ensuring that the human-feline bond is one that will last as long as the planet, it’s doing its part to reduce carbon “pawprints” with pebbles that are inherently biodegradable.

My Siamese is probably the smartest and most curious of the my_3_catsss and we the most interested. He is the one who is toilet bowl trained. Only took him a month BTW so I was hoping he would NOT be interested in Skoon.  

Here is what I know:

Skoon is a pebble that absorbs any liquid and orders

When the pebbles are darker you replace them

There is ZERO tracking of litter.

There is no dust so it is better for your cats and you

Skoon DEFINITELY controls the smell! My husband admits that he doesn’t smell the litter box anymore., 

All three cats have used Skoon which comes in it’s own handy dandy litter box and when the litter needs changing, you just grab a new bag of Skoon and change out the “pebbles”.  You can even try it for yourself risk free. I am doing the monthly free delivery which will cost me $24.95 a month which is a bargain for three cats! 

After 7 days of use I am amazed. It is shocking how little clean up there is. This is a no clumping litter which means you only have to pick up the solids. Interestingly enough my cats are using their old box to poop and the Skoon box to pee. I think the Skoon box is small for my cats. We use a cattery size box so I might just jump a Skoon bag into their big box when it comes in. 

Come see what my cats think about Skoon https://youtu.be/XLfkhTxY8Fg
