    Mother Differently with Nancy Lee

    Mother Differently with Nancy Lee

    When you're listening to this, Nikki and her family have added a 3rd bundle of joy to their family. And it's got me thinking about raising kids... Lots of them. And no one knows how to raise a bunch of kids better than Nikki's mother, Nancy Lee. So here she is!

    The top pieces of advice that I'm taking from chatting with Nancy is that it's important to set clear ground rules and boundaries and to make sure that your kids feel comfortable talking to you about everything. But first, you're going to need to accept that your kids are different and so they need to be parented differently.

    And that's not all she had to say. Listen to this jam-packed episode with this fascinating woman!

    Negro Creek was once the site of a vibrant Black settlement, but its history has been unwritten and buried. This digital archive was compiled by direct descendants and community friends, and is a project near and dear to Nancy's heart. Visit the website at https://negrocreek.community

    Let Mother Nature Do Her Thing with Rebecca Ogilvie

    Let Mother Nature Do Her Thing with Rebecca Ogilvie

    How do you feel about change? Sometimes change is great. But sometimes, despite how much we may be ready to welcome that change with open arms, change can cause some unexpected detours.

    In this episode, I'm talking to Rebecca Ogilvie from The Detour Co about how her baby brought an unexpected detour in her life that brought her North to Muskoka and to a whole different way of living.

    If you've ever felt lost or stuck or empty... this is the episode for you.

    Grow Up and Be Mr. T with Julia Walsh

    Want to be Mr. T when you grow up? This is not the episode for advice on how to become Mr. T, but what Julia has for us is so much more important: how to be your own Mr. T.

    After job hopping for years, Julia has finally found a career that helps her feel creative and fulfilled while allowing her the flexibility she needs to be a wife, a mom, and a whole human being. We talk about imposter syndrome, learning curves, and the reticular activating system.

    Ask All the Questions with Melissa Twist

    Ask All the Questions with Melissa Twist

    What theme should our wedding be? Do we need to think about being eco-friendly? What if we can't get everything we want for our budget? These are the questions that Melissa Twist and I are tackling in this episode.

    Forget the but-you-have-to's from your family! In this episode, Melissa and I decode some questions you might have about planning your dream wedding. We talk about venues, themes, and entertainment, the vows, the environment, and all the tech you might need.

    Listen to this episode if you want to plan a wedding that is perfectly you, rather than perfectly checklisted.

    Talk About Diversity with Shayna Beeksma

    Talk About Diversity with Shayna Beeksma

    Not sure what to say? Listen and learn how to speak about race, gender identity, and sexual orientation.In this episode of Ridiculously Happy Pplcast, Sophia sits down with Shayna Beeksma of ⁠Beeksma Law⁠ to discuss the current, tough social climate. Many in our communities are struggling with the anxiety of what to say to whom, especially concerning race, gender, and sexual orientation. So we discuss how to be a compassionate, kind person who is inherently ignorant--just like everyone else.

    Shayna A. Beeksma is an award-winning lawyer and the founder of Beeksma Law. She received her J.D. from Osgoode Hall Law School in 2011 and was called to the Ontario Bar in 2012, and she founded Beeksma Law in 2018.



    A passionate innovator and entrepreneur, Shayna’s main practice area is in estates law (comprised of estate litigation, estate administration and estate planning), while also incorporating business law (including not-for-profit law), real estate law, commercial leasing, construction law and general civil litigation into her practice.



    While her clients value her knowledge, experience and legal skills, it’s her firm’s customer-centric approach that sets Beeksma Law apart.

    Live Your 'Normal' with Ariela Koldorf

    Live Your 'Normal' with Ariela Koldorf

    All behaviour is communication. But when a member of the family struggles to communicate directly, it can be difficult for all members of the family to live in harmony. That's where Ariela Koldorf comes in.

    Founder of Spectrum of Light Support Services, Ariela has spent the past 20 years working in social services. Most of that time, she has been supporting high-needs kids with developmental disabilities and complex behaviour. A mom of a neurodiverse kiddo herself, she is passionate about giving parents and caregivers the perspective and tools they desperately need to confidently support their children and to bring harmony back to their home.

    In this episode, Ariela and I discuss how everyone is their own normal, the difference between a tantrum and a meltdown, and how a child's needs will change as they age. Everyone can learn an important lesson in communication by listening to this episode. So throw on your headphones and hit play.
