A hive full of extraordinary people🩷

This Thanksgiving, our hearts are overflowing with gratitude for every Queen Bee, every partner, and the beautiful community we are so fortunate to be part of.

Each of you brings something uniquely special to our space. Your joy, beauty, wisdom, courage, and strength. You inspire us, lift one another up, share your gifts, and remind us that the magic of community is found in the people who make it come alive. ✨

At The Apiary CoWork, we believe that thriving through purpose and passion is even more meaningful when we do it together.

Join us in celebrating the women that make our hive a place to connect, grow, belong, and truly bee yourself.

What are you grateful for? 🐝

Spill the Tea with Cara Krezek and Jamie! ✨

Ever feel like you're so busy being everything to everyone that you've lost a little bit of you along the way?

Our lovely Mushroom Member Jamie Oresar, knows that you can lose yourself in a million different ways. Through her business permission to just be., she helps people rediscover the parts of themselves that have been buried beneath a million “shoulds.”

Her message? Stop “should-ing” all over yourself! 👏

How often do we do things because we think we should, without stopping to ask ourselves if we actually want to?

Jamie is all about giving yourself permission to pause, reconnect with who you are, and create a life that feels authentically yours. We're so grateful to have her in our hive!

Want to leave feeling energized and inspired like Jamie does?
DM us to book a tour and come experience The Apiary CoWork for yourself. Your people might just be waiting for you here. 🐝

Meet the Mushroom🍄

Your go-to spot inside The Apiary CoWork when you need a little space to get things done.

Make the call. Send the email. Catch up on work. Or pull up a seat and catch up with another member.

The Mushroom was designed to be a shared space where focus, connection & growth can all happen side by side- just like the mushrooms growing up the walls.

The best work happens when you have the right environment around you: a little room to think, people to connect with, and space to grow.

Want to see The Mushroom (and the rest of the hive) for yourself? Message us to set up a tour. 🐝

Today, on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we pause to listen, learn and reflect.

The Apiary CoWork is located in St. Catharines on the traditional territory of the Anishinaabe, Haudenosaunee, Attiwonderonk and Mississauga peoples. We acknowledge the Indigenous Peoples who have cared for these lands for generations and who continue to live, work and contribute to this community today.

When we were designing The Apiary CoWork, we thought intentionally about what it means to create a space where people feel seen, heard and connected. One of the elements we chose was the round table in our Magnolia Room.

We were inspired by what we have learned from Indigenous teachings about circles and gathering: the importance of listening, equality, relationship, storytelling and creating space for every voice.

We also recognize that Indigenous Nations, cultures and teachings are distinct, and that meaningful learning requires humility, curiosity and continued relationship.

For us, the circle is a reminder that community is not about hierarchy. It is about coming together, sharing perspectives, listening deeply and recognizing the value each person brings.

Truth and reconciliation require more than acknowledgement. They ask us to continue learning, to understand the history of the land beneath our feet, to listen to Indigenous voices, and to consider how we can contribute to reconciliation through our choices and actions.

Today, we honour the Survivors of residential schools, their families and communities, and the children who never returned home.

May we continue to listen. May we continue to learn. And may we continue to build community with greater intention, respect and care.

Happy Anniversary Hive! 🐝

When we opened the doors two years ago, we knew we wanted to create more than a place to work. We wanted to create a space where people could connect, collaborate, cheer each other on, find their people, and most importantly thrive with purpose and passion.

And looking back, it’s the people that stand out most.

The conversations that turned into collaborations.
The introductions that turned into friendships.
The big wins celebrated around the table.
The hard days made a little lighter because someone was there.
The ideas sparked over coffee.
The members who have become friends, collaborators and champions for each other.

So much has happened in two years and somehow, it still feels like we’re just getting started.

We’re incredibly excited for what’s ahead! More opportunities to bring people together, and for our community to grow.

If you’ve been looking for a workspace that feels a different, we’d love to show you around. Somewhere you can do meaningful work and feel like you belong- because you do.

Book a tour or reach out to find your place in the hive.

Thank you for being a part of our story- the pages marked in ink and the ones yet to be written. ✨

Spill The Tea with Cara Krezek & Kara Levitt Renaud! ☕️🐝

Let’s talk about something we know to be true: guidance counsellors and campus career centres are doing incredible work…but they only have so much time to spend with each student.

Our Queen Bee Kara helps students fill that gap with personalized support to explore their options, understand themselves, and find a path forward that actually feels like them.

Want to learn more about how Kara can help?
🎓 Join her for a FREE Virtual Info Session
📅 TODAY- Wednesday, September 23
