3 Wise Ducks is the podcast that says what many women are thinking but not always saying out loud.

Join us for the honesty. Stay for the laughs.

    Did You Know? Random Facts, Big Laughs

    This week on 3 Wise Ducks, we kick things off with our Duck Moment of the Week, where we each share a little moment that made us laugh, roll our eyes or simply stop and think, because life always gives us something to talk about. Then it's on to this week's topic, "Did You Know?" A collection of completely random, mindless facts that serve no real purpose other than making us laugh, surprising us with the unexpected and sparking conversations that head in directions none of us saw coming. Some facts are interesting, some are bizarre and some leave us wondering who even discovered them in the first place. Join us for another fun, relaxed conversation filled with laughter, curiosity and plenty of "I had no idea!" moments.

    Saying Yes to Life with Janette Bendle

    This week on 3 Wise Ducks, we welcome wellness coach, Pilates instructor and founder of Bend It with Bendle, Janette Bendle. Janette has spent more than 25 years helping people improve their strength, mobility and wellbeing, but her own life took an unexpected turn when she suffered a heart attack at the age of 50. In this honest and inspiring conversation, she shares how that experience changed her perspective and why she made a promise to herself to start saying yes to opportunities that once might have scared her. Of course, we couldn't let Janette leave without talking about her time on The Golden Bachelor. She takes us behind the scenes, shares what the experience was really like, what surprised her most and what she learned about herself along the way. This episode is full of laughter, honest reflections and a reminder that it's never too late to embrace new adventures, back yourself and make the most of every opportunity life throws your way.

    The 5 Love Languages, with Hilarious Results

    The 5 Love Languages has become one of the most well known relationship tools in the world. But can understanding your primary love language really improve your relationship? In this episode of 3 Wise Ducks, relationship counsellor Joy Ball explains what the five love languages are, why they matter, and how they can help you better understand yourself and the people you love. To put the theory to the test, Jan and Nilu complete the 5 Love Languages quiz. What should have been a quick exercise quickly turns into plenty of laughs, unexpected dilemmas and some surprising results. Join us as we explore the strengths and limitations of the love languages, share our own experiences, and discover why relationships are about much more than knowing whether you prefer words of affirmation or acts of service. Whether you're in a relationship, single or simply curious about why people feel loved in different ways, this episode will leave you with practical insights and a few laughs along the way.
