    62: Stronger Together with Sarah Wawryk

    In this deeply honest conversation, I sit down with Sarah Longpré, owner of Saskatoon Pole & Dance Studio, to talk about the power of movement, vulnerability, and the healing that can happen when we find safe spaces to be fully ourselves. Sarah has built more than a dance studio - she has created a community. A place where people are invited to reconnect with their bodies, express themselves through movement, and experience the kind of belonging that facilitates healing and personal growth. As a survivor of sexual violence, Sarah shares how that experience shaped her path toward creating spaces rooted in trust, empowerment, and connection. Together, we explore how to find ways to help us reconnect more deeply with ourselves. This conversation is powerful, raw, and deeply human. It’s about reclaiming your voice, your body, and your sense of belonging. Content note: This episode includes discussion of sexual violence.

    61: Build a Life of Wellness for the Long-Game with Dr. Kristen Dudeck

    In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Kristen Dudeck, a chiropractor and massage therapist dedicated to empowering girls and women to build strong, lifelong foundations in their health. Dr. Dudeck believes that longevity in health starts in adolescence - and that girls and women deserve to feel confident, informed, and supported in their bodies at every stage of life. From prenatal and postnatal care to perimenopause, she shares insights from her work with patients across the lifespan and the common refrain she hears: “I wish I knew this sooner.” We discuss the gaps in women’s health research, the importance of self-advocacy, and why curiosity and individualized care are essential to thriving. This conversation is a powerful reminder that everything you need to succeed already lives within you - and that taking charge of your health early can change everything.

    60: Compassion without Collapse

    What if compassion didn’t require self-sacrifice? In this episode, we explore the difference between being a caring, empathetic human and overextending ourselves in ways that quietly dysregulate our nervous system. Many of us have been taught that compassion means responding, fixing, or holding space at all costs - but what happens when our capacity is already stretched thin? This conversation invites you into a deeper level of self-awareness: learning how to stay compassionate without abandoning yourself. We’ll talk about why pausing is not the same as being uncaring, how your nervous system communicates your limits, and why you’re allowed to care deeply without reacting to everything that asks for your attention. If you’ve ever felt exhausted by your own empathy, this episode is a gentle reminder that boundaries can be an act of compassion too - or yourself and for others. -Compassion is not measured by how much you absorb.-Capacity matters.-And you are allowed to protect your peace.

    59: Raising a Generation Under Pressure

    In this episode I explore the quiet exhaustion shaping today’s generation - one growing up under constant pressure, comparison, and connection. From excessive screen time to the relentless influence of social media, many young people are navigating a world where rest feels unproductive, validation is public, and being “always on” is the norm. I unpack how digital culture is impacting mental health, identity, self-worth, and emotional resilience. This isn’t about blame - it’s about awareness, compassion, and asking better questions about what our kids, teens, and young adults are carrying beneath the surface. If you’re a parent, educator, caregiver, or simply someone wondering how we got here , this conversation invites you to pause, reflect, and consider how we can protect the heart in a screen-saturated world.

    58: Learning to Live Again After Loss with Marcia Earhart

    Marcia Earheart's life was forever changed by unimaginable loss - and who chose to transform her deep grief into purpose. This episode is for anyone who has experienced loss, supports those who are grieving, or believes that even in life’s most devastating moments, transformation is still possible. After losing two sons, Marcia found herself navigating the darkest path a parent can walk. Rather than allowing grief to silence her, she answered a profound calling to serve others who are walking through trauma, loss, and heartbreak. She is the cofounder of The Sterling Rose Sanctuary, a nonprofit providing boots-on-the-ground support for individuals experiencing grief and trauma, and has devoted her life to creating safe, compassionate spaces for healing. A trained educator, certified Life, Grief, Trauma, Brain, and Mental Health Coach, mediator, Heartsync minister, and author of Gripping Grace in the Garden of Grief: A Place for the Heart, Marcia brings both professional depth and lived wisdom to her work. Her approach blends evidence-informed practices with profound empathy, offering hope without bypassing pain. Marcia and I explore what it means to survive profound loss, how grief can become a catalyst for meaningful action, and how healing does not mean forgetting - but learning how to breathe again, move again, and live again.
