Shouldn't we all know those around us in a more meaningful way? In this digital age, we have spread our social circles much wider than ever before. At the same time, the 'relationships' we have seem much less intimate compared to generations prior, or even earlier in our own lives. This podcast's aim is to use this widened circle to highlight our similarities as humans against the backdrop of our perceived differences. To foster more intimate and meaningful relationships, we must zoom out, away from our own myopic view points.

    Most Impactful Experience Series: Episode 6 - with Grandma Love

    On today's episode I will be talking with my grandmother, Loverle. Born in 1935, she has seen immense change in her lifetime, but also some events that seem to be repeating themselves. We will be discussing becoming a catholic/christian at 16 years of age, the difference in philosophy between christianity and catholicism, raising 7 children over a short period of time, and some thoughts on the civil rights movement of the 60's compared to today's movement. Technology was our foe today, but we made the most of it and enjoyed the conversation. I hope you do as well.

    Nastashia Minto is a local award-winning author/poet, though she may not be the first to acknowledge that.

    Most Impactful Experience Series: Episode 3 - with Tanner Roark

    Tanner is a pitcher for the Toronto Blue Jays, but also an old friend. Growing up in a small town was a formative and important experience for both of us, but now that his job is predicated on travel and and working with people from all over the world, has this changed his outlook? Also discussed during this episode is the impact of social media on today's youth.

    Most Impactful Experience Series: Episode 2 - with Mira Cho

    Mira is a new friend and colleague. This podcast was as much about asking the predetermined questions as it was me getting to know someone new to my circle. She is immensely curious, and provides a prospective that I will continue to value and be grateful for.

    Most Impactful Experience Series: Episode 1 - with Joe Ryan

    In my first podcast, I'll be speaking with my cousin, Joe Ryan. He has been a close friend since childhood, and a best friend as we have both transitioned into our respective careers. The conversations that we have had over the last five to ten years have prompted deeper questions and reflection necessary for my growth as a human, and are a big reason why I was motivated to create this podcast. It only seemed fitting to start with Joe, and his wife Courtney, as my first guests.
