Worries

Now that she’s 7 years old, Safwat confesses some of these worries to his daughter and tries to uncover her own anxieties for the future. Story 2: Julie used to hum in class as a kid to soothe her anxieties. Until her teacher complained that Julie’s humming was distracting the other students. So she found herself in a doctor’s office, being diagnosed with Tourette’s.

Featuring Julie Piñero and Safwat Saleem. To see Safwat’s anxiety charts, go to: safwatsaleem.com

After addiction, a mom fights to regain her daughter's trust

For years, Melissa MacMillan's opioid addiction brought chaos to her life - especially with her daughter Eden. Now, almost five years into recovery, Melissa and Eden share the tough conversations they're having as they try to rebuild their relationship. What does it take to be truly 'out of the woods,' getting through one big life hurdle, only to face a whole new set of challenges? That's what this episode of Now or Never is all about. A few weeks ago, Lisa de Lusignan wrote in to Now or Never to tell us about losing her husband to ALS, and the surprising thing helping her through her grief: pickleball. So of course we called her up, to find out how joy and sadness co-exist on the pickleball courts. “Nobody looked at me like, ‘Oh geez, I hope she’s OK today.' Which is fine! And lovely for people to do that. But sometimes I just want to be a girl coming to play pickleball, not the sad wife." Since coming to Canada from Eritrea 23 years ago, Alazar Beyene has been giving new life to old shoes. But with the rise of fast fashion, business declined, so when his old patching machine broke down, Alazar was thinking about changing careers. Enter Marsha Shandur and her beloved winter boots. How Marsha turned to the power of the people for help to replace Alazar’s machine. Mary Howley is on the hunt for a part-time job. She worked in the financial industry for nearly 30 years, but living as a single retiree in Ontario isn’t as financially secure or care-free as she’d hoped. Tiffany Bird went 25 years without ever consuming a vegetable. She has ARFID, a fairly new and often misunderstood eating disorder that significantly restricts the volume and variety of foods people eat. For decades, the condition consumed her life and her health. Today, Tiffany is learning to accept that she may never be free of ARFID.

In 2009, South African sprinter Caster Semenya won gold at the World Championships. But instead of a celebration, she endured endless speculation about her body, her biology, and her gender. And soon, sports organizations would launch a new round of regulations, lead to multiple court cases, and require sporting organizations to justify their claim that DSD athletes have an unfair advantage.
