    My Beautiful Boy, with Host Vanisha Breault OC 21

    In this episode of the Ordinary Courage Podcast I am solo! 'My Beautiful Boy' is about my youngest son, his struggle with addiction and mental health over the past couple of years and it's about digging deeper as a mother, the courage to stay in the fight and to take each day as it comes. (I recorded this episode outside the studio so there are a couple glitches hehe & the sound quality is not our usual top notch, hopefully be back in the studio soon)I also threw in a plug for Termin...

    Losing Maddison; with Guest Jennifer Ann Holleman OC20

    In this episode of the Ordinary Courage Podcast I have the absolute honor of hearing Maddison's story, told through her Mama, Jennifer Ann Holleman. This is a story about loss, Human Trafficking and a mothers fight for justice, for inner healing and to tell the story of Maddison to anyone who will listen. This episode is brutally painful and hard to hear. But we need to hear these stories because this atrocity is far from over. In the words of Martin Luther King Jr, "Our lives begin...

    My Path to Freedom; with Guest David Lewry. OC 18

    In this episode of Ordinary Courage I had the gift of getting to sit down with my friend David Lewry. I have been a guest on David's podcast twice now, so it was pretty neat to be on the other side of the microphone hearing David's story. David's story is tragic in so many ways, sexually abused as a little boy, the shame, secrecy and confusion that came from that and then later in life battling depression coupled with addiction. Finally discovering his path to freedom. Today, David ...

    Addiction Medicine & HOPE (Hold On Pain Ends); with Guest Dr. Rob Tanguay. OC 17

    In this episode of the OC Podcast Dr. Rob Tanguay (just Rob;) ) and I sit down and dig into the great divide between harm reduction and abstinence based recovery and building bridges, reaching the lost and my absolute personal favorite message-having HOPE. We talk about truly optimizing recovery, all forms of recovery. We discuss the prejudice, shame and stigma associated with addiction and mental health- it's jam packed this episode! Rob's Bio:Dr. Tanguay is a Psychiatrist who complete...

    Internet Child Exploitation (ICE) with Guest; Staff SGT. Dominic Mayhew OC 16

    In this episode of the OC Podcast I sit down with Staff Sgt. Dominic Mayhew and we discuss Internet Child Exploitation. This conversation is not an easy one, it's not easy or comfortable to hear and to know but it's vitally important that we do- and quite honestly "vitally" does not even come close to describing or depicting how absolutely widespread, atrocious and inhuman this issue is. Every single parent should know this information and be mindful of this issue- "I had no idea" a...

    The Silver Lining; with Guest Cst. Stacey McKinnon OC 14

    In this episode of the OC Podcast I speak with my "sister" Cst. Stacey McKinnon of the Calgary Police Service. I first met Cst. McKinnon back in 2015, I clearly did not refer to her as my sister at that time- Stacey had been one of several members of the CPS to respond to a call I had put in to attempt once again to get my beautiful girl Eddy off the streets of Calgary. This is where and how I met Stacey. Little did Stacey and I know that both of our lives would be forever changed through Ede...
