Hi, I’m Brigitte — a Canadian entrepreneur who dabbles in stand-up comedy and professional supporter of women. I’ve been fitting sports bras for over 27 years, and when I’m not helping women feel more supported, I’m on stage telling stories through Women Wit & Wisdom or hosting Women Talk events, a storytelling community where women share real life, real laughs, and real truth. The Booby Gazette is where all of that comes together — humour, honesty, bodies, aging, life, and the occasional rant — written for women who like their support practical and their laughs well-earned.

I don’t sell bras. I sell support - I don’t host events. I host voices -

 —Two businesses. One mission.

Three reasons why I wear sports bras 7 days a week!

Support Your Girls, Support Your Goals 🏞️ Nothing ruins a scenic hike or a relaxing evening like a bouncing chest. Grab sports bras with wide straps and a snug fit to keep everything in place. Think of it as your ultimate adventure wingman, whether you’re scaling a peak or toasting to the sunset.

 

Stay Dry, Fly High 🌞 Sweat happens. Make sure your sports bra has moisture-wicking fabric to keep you dry and comfy, whether you’re working up a serious outdoor glow on the trails or just lounging on your deck. No swampy situations here!

 

Breathe, Baby, Breathe 🌬️ Nature is all about fresh air—your sports bra should be too! Look for mesh panels or ventilation zones to keep things breezy. No one wants a sauna under their shirt, especially when you’re trying to enjoy a peaceful moment with nature (or your favourite wine). 🍷

And if you live close to the Rockies like I do and you're going camping, your bra can even double as a snow shovel—because Mother Nature loves a surprise snowstorm! ❄️

So, gear up, get out there, and have an amazing long weekend. May your adventures be epic and your sports bras ever supportive. Cheers to making memories and staying fabulous in the great outdoors! πŸŒ²πŸŽ‰


Stay fabulous,

Brigitte Lessard

The story of the first sports bra—how two women turned jockstraps into a game-changing invention that gave women real support, freedom, and confidence.
By Brigitte Lessard March 7, 2026
Tonight we spring forward, which means we lose an hour of sleep… but here’s the good news: a great sports bra never loses support. While the clocks jump ahead, the girls should stay right where they belong, proudly parked at 10 and 2 like a well-behaved Canadian compass. Because daylight saving time may move the clock, but a proper sports bra makes sure nothing else shifts south. β°πŸ’— Since we’re talking about spring, let’s talk about our wonderfully unpredictable Canadian springs. One day y ou’re jogging in sunshine thinking summer has arrived… the next day you’re digging your gloves out of your jacket pocket because a cold wind has decided winter wasn’t quite finished yet. β„οΈπŸŒ€οΈ
