SPEAKEASY with Kendra Fisher Kendra Fisher
-
- Health & Fitness
I’m Kendra Fisher, professional speaker, past member of Team Canada’s hockey program, soon to be author and believer in “showing up” for each other. Since leaving Team Canada because of mental illness, I have travelled the world helping others to find tomorrow. What I’ve learned? Silence hurts people. Silence breeds fear, hatred, anger. It’s time we step out of hiding and learn how to have the hard conversations together. Join me on my weekly Podcast as I sit down with guests from every walk of life to talk about the things we’re not supposed to say. Being honest saved my life, admitting I was struggling allowed me to learn how to cope. We owe it to each other to make safe spaces where it’s ok to come undone. Speakeasy will be exactly that, a safe place to talk about everything that we are made to believe we have to hide.

The One With New Jersey Based Counsellor, John Ramspacher, About Using Humour To Get Through Darkness
There are so many responses to dealing with darkness; ways that we manage grief, tragedy and challenges. Join John and I as we discuss what happens when we get intentional with coping. Most don’t believe they can can access certain tools to cope; which is why this is one of my favourite discussions to date. What if you could learn how to get out of your own way? John has such an incredible ability to explain how this could be made possible, and during a time of year when so many are struggling, it feels like a perfect time to learn how to laugh through pain.

The One Where David & Margaret, Cofounders of Clearsips (non alcoholic drink distributors), and I finally Share Our Big News!
What’s happens when we we create an inclusive world? When we consider everybody’s individual experiences and make space for them in a welcoming and loving way? Through their own journeys with sobriety, David and Margaret learned how isolating so many social experiences could be, and so they used their years of industry experience to do something about it. I, as a collector of incredible people, realized this is a journey I wanted to be a part of. I am so happy to announce that Clearsips has partnered with Speakeasy with me, and we are going to make sure everyone knows they have a place at our table!
PS. You’re going to want to check out clearsips.ca after hearing this episode! You have some shopping to do to make sure everybody at your holiday table knows exactly how intentionally you showed up for them this year. -

The One with The Honest Mom, Libby Ward
When you accidentally become an influencer in a world of algorithms and chaos, you end up becoming the go to for advice and criticism all on the same platform. This week, Libby and I discuss the highs and lows of internet “fame” and the effects these pressures have in real life. Also, you don’t want to miss the discussion that plays out between “the working parent” (me) and THE voice for so many stay at home mom’s who feel undervalued and unappreciated (her). What happens when we all need a break after “work”?
