Swipe. Bet. Repeat: Sports Betting, Fan Culture, and the Slippery Slope We’re Ignoring

Fri, 06 Feb 2026 08:00:00 -0000

Sports betting is everywhere, and it’s changing more than just how we watch the game. In this episode, I sit down with filmmaker Deborah Wainwright, director of the documentary Swipe. Bet. Repeat., to talk about the rapid rise of app-based sports betting, how it’s reshaping fan behaviour, and why athletes are increasingly becoming the face of wins, losses, and even threats.
We dig into how betting apps have blurred the line between fandom and gambling, why prop bets have shifted the psychology of watching sports, and what happens when money turns players into investments. We also talk about why Deb chose to centre women bettors in the film, what she learned about community and risk, and why the idea that “the house always wins” still holds true.
If you’ve ever placed a bet, thought about placing one, or wondered how this all got so big so fast, this conversation will change how you watch your next game

How Neuroplasticity Can Change Your Brain at Any Age, with Tara Bonner of Arrowsmith Program

Fri, 30 Jan 2026 08:00:00 -0000

What if the brain you have today is not the brain you are stuck with? In this episode, I sit down with Tara Bonner, Chief Neuroeducation Officer at the Arrowsmith Program, to talk about neuroplasticity and the brain’s capacity to change throughout our lives. We unpack why confidence follows competence, not encouragement, how attention has become increasingly fragile in modern life, and the difference between chronic distraction and true ADHD. We also talk about learning disabilities, cognitive profiles, and why focusing less on labels and more on how the brain functions can change outcomes for both children and adults. If you are curious about how your brain works, how to strengthen it, and how to protect your thinking in an AI-driven world, this conversation is well worth your attention.

AI, Automation, and the Loss of Human Connection with Joanne Morrison

Fri, 23 Jan 2026 08:00:00 -0000

AI is everywhere right now, but I’m far less interested in the hype and far more interested in what it’s doing to how we connect with each other.
In this episode, I sit down with Joanne Morrison, a Canadian author and entrepreneur with deep experience in customer service and outsourcing, to talk about where AI actually stands today and where it’s being wildly oversold.
We talk about why so many chatbots are still terrible, where companies are getting AI wrong in customer service and marketing, and why trust and human connection are being eroded in the process. We also get into jobs, which roles are most at risk in the near term, which ones will always need humans, and why panic about mass unemployment may be misplaced.
Most importantly, we talk about connection. What happens when communication is increasingly filtered through machines, why women may feel this shift more acutely, and why real, in-person human connection might end up being one of the most valuable things we can offer in an AI-driven world.
If AI has left you feeling uneasy, frustrated, or simply disconnected, this conversation will make you feel less alone and far more grounded in reality

Perfecting the Pivot: Tanya Hayles on Layoffs, Reinvention, Personal Branding, and AI for Women

Fri, 16 Jan 2026 12:00:00 -0000

Getting laid off is brutal. Getting laid off twice in one year can make you question everything, including yourself.
In this episode, I sit down with Tanya Hayles, award-winning event planner, digital strategist, founder of Black Moms Connection, and creator of the Perfecting the Pivot workshop. Tanya shares what it’s really like to navigate forced career pivots in a tough economy, including the grief that comes first, the money realities nobody wants to talk about, and how to keep moving when the job market keeps ghosting you.
We also dig into personal branding without the cringe. Tanya explains why your name is your most important brand, why you should own your domain, how to save your work “receipts,” and how to ask for help in a way your network can actually respond to.
Plus, Tanya’s honest take on AI: the opportunities, the risks, and what women need to hold onto as work changes fast.
If you’re pivoting, considering a pivot, or quietly panicking that you might have to, this one will make you feel less alone and a lot more ready.

Roxanne Joyal: The Women Behind Your Coffee Cup

Fri, 05 Dec 2025 18:55:00 -0000

Most of us grab our morning coffee without a second thought, but behind that daily ritual are women whose stories rarely make it into the conversation. Today I’m joined by Roxanne Joyal, founder and CEO of Andback Coffee, whose entire career has been about lifting women up and creating real change in the communities where our coffee is grown.
Roxanne’s path runs from Stanford and Oxford to working with the Supreme Court of Canada and spending more than 30 years building social enterprises that empower women across East Africa, Latin America, and beyond. We talk about what’s really happening in the coffee industry, why supporting women growers matters, how conscious consumer choices add up, and the lessons Roxanne has learned from building companies with values at the centre.

I Can’t Quit You, Apparently (What She Said Starts Fresh)

Fri, 28 Nov 2025 23:01:00 -0000

I’m back. After seven months away, I wanted to start with a short, honest episode about why What She Said hit pause, what pulled me off the hamster wheel, and why I’ve decided to return in a completely different way.
This isn’t a tell-all or a dramatic reinvention. It’s simply the truth about burnout, clarity, and the realisation that connection matters more than constant output. I talk about walking away, almost selling the show, building Girl Trips, and why I’m shifting to a seasonal format that gives all of us more space to breathe.
I also share a few thoughts on why online life has stopped feeling like real connection for so many of us, and why bringing conversations back to something human matters now more than ever.
If you’ve ever needed to step back, reset, or rethink what you’re doing, this one’s for you.

Empowering Conversations: Women, Environment, Entertainment, and Finance in Today's World

Sat, 22 Apr 2023 00:00:00 -0000

As the AI revolution continues to unfold, deep fakes are on the rise, and alarmingly, over 90% of deepfake victims are women. Amber Mac has been following AI and in particular deep fakes closely and joins me today to discuss how and where it’s created and distributed, the damage it can cause, and what we can do about it. This is an important discussion all women need to take seriously. Canadians throw away over 3 million tonnes of plastic waste every year and only 9% is recycled while the rest ends up in our landfills, waste-to-energy facilities or the environment. Kayli Dale and Jacquie Hutchings founded Friendlier to help stem the tide of this environmental nightmare, by drastically reducing the use of single use plastics in restaurants. Anne Brodie joins me with entertainment and this week we take a look at Twice Colonized which follows Inuit lawyer and sealskin clothes designer Aaju Peter over seven years, the story of Joseph Bologne AKA Chevalier, a French Creole violinist, composer, conductor and fencer in Paris at the time of Marie Antoinette and the French Revolution, and Mrs. Davis, a fun, smart, and action-packed movie starring Betty Gilpin. Last month, Dr. Mita Manna joined me on behalf of mbctime.ca to discuss metastatic breast cancer or mbc for short, to provide valuable information for those either living with mbc or who know someone with mbc. This month we’re joined by Karima Jessani. Karima is from Ontario, is a wife and mother to three, and has been living with metastatic breast cancer since 2013. Karima is here to share insight into her battle with this illness and the common misconceptions surrounding breast cancer. Money is never too tight to mention around her. In fact, the only way to make it through these troubling times is to talk about every aspect of our finances. That’s why I invited Jess and Colleen from Two Girls Investing to join me today to share their tips for riding out this economic storm we find ourselves in. Finally Tara Maclean recently released her bestselling debut memoir "Song of the Sparrow," which has received critical acclaim from numerous artists and publications. Alongside the book, Tara also released an accompanying album which is a collection of reimagined past work and new material. She joins me to share a little bit of the story behind the book and the album before we play the single "Lay Here in the Dark.” for you.

Navigating Climate Change, Parenting Teens, and AI Policy: A Dynamic Discussion

Sat, 15 Apr 2023 00:00:00 -0000

How did our federal budget rate when it comes to climate change? Lisa Gue, National Director of Policy with The Suzuki Foundation, joins me to discuss how much progress this year's budget has made towards a clean economy and if it will be enough. Aly Pain is here to help us answer the age-old question parents everywhere ask of their teens, "Why are you not living up to your potential?" As always, Aly has a fresh look at how to approach this with your teen and tips on how you can achieve better communication with your teen so that you can actually let that question go for good. Anne Brodie is here with new entertainment, and this week we take a look at the Palme d'Or-nominated film SHOWING UP starring Academy Award nominees Michelle Williams and Hong Chau, Sophie Jarvis' feature debut Until Branches Bend is an ambitious marriage of eco-responsibility in the face of corporate disinformation, and Mrs. Maisel's manager Susie, played by Alex Borstein, is ballsy, loud, and sharp-witted – and so is the Alex Borstein we meet in Alex Borstein: Corsets & Clown Suits, available on Prime this week. AI is advancing at such a rapid rate that it is leaving not only people but the institutions and businesses they work in playing catch up. Many small businesses, for example, have not likely drafted an AI policy for their workers or contractors they work with, and that puts them at risk. Cat Coode from Binary Tat joins me to share what exactly the consequences are if you don't have an AI policy in place and what you should consider when drafting one up. Finally, Apryll Aileen's music is charged with charisma and passion. A fan favourite at music festivals worldwide, Apryll transcends genres, creating her own undefinable sound with influences coming from pop, rock, electronic, folk, and R&B. She joins me today to catch us up on all she's doing before we play her new single, Catch Me, in its entirety for you.

Living with Bipolar Disorder, The Whole Animal, High Cost of Fast Fashion, and Starter Dog

Sat, 01 Apr 2023 00:00:00 -0000

Nearly 398,000 Canadians have bipolar disorder, and with World Bipolar Day just passing us by on March 30th I felt it was important to shed a light on it. Yollanda Zhang has launched a Live Talk Series on “Lessons from My Bipolar Journey” to help normalize conversations about mental health challenges and reduce stigma for all. She's here to discuss mental health and World Bipolar Day, and to share her insights on how we can all play a part in preventing anyone from feeling like they have to suffer alone. It took Corinna Chong 15 years to write and release her book The Whole Animal, a collection of short stories that looks at gender roles as they relate to relationships, identity and autonomy in society. Already receiving rave reviews, Corinna joins me to share a little bit of the story behind the book. Anne Brodie is in with her regular Saturday Night at the Movies, and Gen X’ers will rejoice hearing about the return of two icons. First Kevin Bacon stars in Space Oddity directed by his wife Kyra Sedgewick and which Anne calls “a bold twist on the standard romance, with some comedic, heartwarming elements, set against a major life-changing conundrum” and next is the return of Rob Lowe in Unstable, a new series on Netflix co-created, written, and starring his son John Owen Lowe. We all love finding bargain on great clothes, but fashion, particularly fast fashion has a high cost we’re not thinking about enough. The environmental and social impacts that companies like Shein, H&M, and FashionNova have on our environment are disturbing, but even more disturbing is the human toll. Karishma Porwal is a 25 year old climate educator and activist who has been talking about everything from fast fashion to earth-friendly meal choices on her social media pages since 2020 and joins me today to share what we should all be thinking about when we get dressed each day. If you’ve ever owned a dog, or thought about owning one you’ll definitely want to hear more about Rona Maynard’s story. Rona and her husband rescued a dog Casey, and Rona quickly fell in love and noticed that just about everything around her changed with her new four legged companion. Her new book Starter Dog is available for pre-order now and Rona joins me to share a bit of the story including the prison time her dog did before he came home with her. Finally If you’re looking for your next great outdoor Canadian adventure then you absolutely want to stick around until the end to hear more about Andrea Minty’s new documentary Tripping Train 185 available on TVO and YouTube that starts airing April 7th. Train 185 takes outdoor enthusiasts through some of Ontario’s best natural landscapes for the adventure of a lifetime.

Empowering Women, Care to Know, Food Waste, Fighting for Julian Assange, & A Death At the Party

Fri, 24 Mar 2023 00:00:00 -0000

Women in Canada make up less than a 1/3 of elected officials and that’s bad for everyone, and yes that means men too. Having women in elected positions leads to more inclusive and equitable representation, diverse perspectives, and better overall governance, ultimately benefiting society as a whole. Shari Graydon, founder of Informed Opinions is committed to changing our political landscape and has launched balanceofpower.ca to help women attain power to drive positive change in their communities and improve the lives of more Canadians. I am thrilled to share a new partnership at What She Said with Care to Know. Care to Know.ca is a free resource where Canadians receive the latest health information, updates on new and existing treatments and advice from Canadian doctors via email. Over the next six months we’ll take a closer look at seasonal allergies and asthma, skincare, diabetes, weight management and menopause but today we’re going to share how caretoknow works with Dr. Christine Palmay so you can stop going down rabbit holes with Dr. Google. Anne Brodie is back with another big Saturday night at the movies and this week Kiefer Sutherland is back in Rabbit Hole, a new series on Paramount, Gabriel Basso stars as a low-level FBI agent pulled into non-stop action in Netflix’s new The Night Agent, Director Jean-Christophe Klotz's thrilling history of Hollywood's part in bringing Nazi war criminals to justice in Filmmakers for the Prosecution, an adaptation of Sandra Schulberg's Monograph and an urgently important documentary. Next up, Anne is back with an interview with Julian Assange’s Dad and brother, John and Gabriel Shipton. Julian is perhaps The most famous hacker publisher in the world and remains in London's tough Belmarsh prison awaiting possible extradition to the US to face trial for espionage. If convicted, he faces 175 years in prison. His crime? Leaking videos of US military war crimes against Iraqis, provided to him by soldier Chelsea Manning and published on WikiLeaks. Assange's father John Shipton, and brother Gabriel continue to lobby for his release citing freedom of the press as Assange's mental and physical health continues to deteriorate. Don’t miss this interview. I love a great whodunit, which is why I was so thrilled to catch up with Amy Stuart, author of the newly released A Death At the Party from Simon & Schuster. Amy joins me to share how she kept the pace non-stop in this day in a life story that will have you on the edge of your seat and guessing to the bitter end who the victim will be. Finally, food waste in Canada remains a huge problem, in fact, Canada is the worst in the world for throwing away food. Think about that. Our small little nation is #1 for all the wrong reasons. Part of the problem are those best before dates which muddy the waters for consumers about food safety. Lori Nikkel, CEO of Second Harvest joins me to clear the air.

Sat, 18 Mar 2023 00:00:00 -0000

Do you know what a pretendian is? If you haven’t heard this term before you’ll definitely want to listen to my interview with Dr. Pam Palmater from Toronto Metropolitan University, who joins me to discuss this harmful trend for indigenous communities, some prominent examples of pretendians, and what is being done about it. It’s a bittersweet time for parents in their final year of high school as they start to prepare for a new reality in September in University. On one hand you can’t bear the thought of them leaving and on the other you’re excited to see them embark on this new chapter. But there’s a space in between there that most people aren’t paying attention to, and that’s how will they manage without you. Aly Pain joins me to share how to get your kids psychologically ready for this monumental transition. Anne Brodie is in with new entertainment and this week we have so much to get to! We start with a look at two Canadian gems, Clement Virgo’s Brother and Riceboy from Korean-Canadian filmmaker Anthony Shim. The new documentary Ithaka taks a look at the controversial Julian Assange, and Apple TV+ has Extrapolations, a new eco-drama that envisions what the world may look like as climate change intensifies over the coming years. Rumina Morris, an expert on Anti-Racism and Anti-Oppression, is here to discuss race-based trauma and it’s impact. Rumina is a strong advocate for social justice and human rights and has used her privilege as a leader to draw attention to systemic inequities and demand change. Rana Bokahri has been described as Canada’s own Erin Brokovich, and is commitmed to improving the lives of people far beyond the political arena she works in. When Rana was running for mayor in her hometown of Winnipeg, she was alerted to asbestos in water and began to dig deeper. She has since started asbestosfreewater.ca and joins me to share why municipalities across the country need to be addressing degrading water pipes now.

Shattering Glass Ceilings, Picture Perfect Weddings, Proudly Indigenous and Love is Warm

Sat, 11 Mar 2023 00:00:00 -0000

Having female role models in different fields and positions of power can increase representation and diversity. When women see other women in leadership roles, they are more likely to believe that they too can achieve those positions. This is why I’m so pleased to have Senator Gigi Osler join me today to discuss her new role in Canada’s senate, and how she is managing her other roles as and internationally renowned surgeon and assistant professor. Wedding season is here, and finding the perfect venue is top of mind for many would be brides and grooms. Thankfully Angela Risi from The Doctor’s House, one of Canada’s top wedding venues, is here to share her top tips on choosing the perfect location for your wedding day. Anne Brodie is in and we jump right into Season 3 of Ted Lasso, which we’re both thrilled to see the return of, plus a look at the sweet comedy-drama I Like Movies based on the experiences of filmmaker Chandler Levack who worked at Blockbuster and Cheryl Fennell and April Allen join me to share details about Proudly Indigenous Crafts and Designs, a trusted and secure e-commerce platform that celebrates and showcases Canadian Indigenous fashion designers and artists that create authentic, high-quality, hand-crafted seal fur and leather products, such as accessories, footwear, clothing and home décor. At a time when corporate greed is running amok, it’s nice to know that socially conscious businesses that give back to their communities still exist. That’s why I know you’ll want to hear more about Love is Warm, the first socially conscious winter coat company. Founder Jordan Britton joins me to share more about this company that provides one coat to a Canadian in need for every coat purchased. Finally, we’re closing out this week’s show with Surrey BC native Alexis Lynn, an Indigenous singer-songwriter who crafts deceptively sweet pop anthems that never shy away from her ethos of honesty and empowerment. She is here to discuss her latest album and share the single Something to Prove with us.

Voices of Change and Progress - Meet Senator Gigi Osler

Fri, 10 Mar 2023 23:51:15 -0000

Amplifying the voices of strong, successful, and inspiring women is important and essential in today’s world. That’s why today’s podcast is so important. Today, I have the honor of interviewing Dr. Gigi Osler, also known as Senator Gigi Osler. Senator Osler is an internationally renowned surgeon, an assistant professor at the University of Manitoba, and a dedicated advocate for equity, diversity, and inclusion. She has broken barriers and shattered glass ceilings in the medical field. As the first woman surgeon and the first racialized woman elected President of the Canadian Medical Association, Dr. Osler has been a trailblazer in advocating for equity and diversity in healthcare. But what makes Dr. Osler even more remarkable is her gratitude and awareness of the supportive network that helped her achieve success. She is a feminist who wants women to take up space and believes in the power of mentorship and role modeling to inspire and uplift other women. Dr. Osler's journey, from being born to immigrant parents from the Philippines and India to becoming a role model, research supervisor, and mentor for Filipino and other racialized medical students, is a testament to the resilience and determination of women who strive to succeed despite facing systemic barriers. It's essential to share stories like Dr. Osler's to give other women hope and encouragement to pursue their dreams, no matter how challenging they may seem. I hope that her story inspires my listeners to break barriers and shatter glass ceilings of their own, while advocating for equity and diversity in their fields. A small housekeeping note before we jump in though, this podcast was recorded prior to the government of Canada banning Tiktok on government devices. I encourage you to keep up with Senator Osler on her other social channels as she is a wealth of information both in medicine and politics. So, without further ado, please meet Dr. Gigi Osler.

Fri, 03 Mar 2023 00:00:00 -0000

Metastatic breast cancer or mBC for short, remains an incurable disease in need of further research and support. Dr. Mita Manna is a medical oncologist at the Saskatchewan Cancer Agency and joins me now to share information all women need to hear. Canadian singer-songwriter Jessica Pearson and her band were recently trapped on a plane for 10 hours in 115 km winds. At the request of the captain, crew, and passengers they were asked to play music to help keep spirits up. Everyone on the plane has a great time, but social media is a cruel place and video of the event went viral with a false narrative that saw Jessica being viciously attacked. Oh we’re setting the story straight on this one. Anne Brodie is in with new entertainment, and we take a look at The Quiet Girl which features a superbly nuanced performance from 11 year old Catherine Clinch, we also look at The Confessions of Frannie Langton and new drama mystery series set in 1825 that pushes the envelope in its depictions of society, the British slave trade, and its resounding impact then and now. Brogan Ingram has amassed a whopping 5.2 million followers on TikTok sharing transformative cleanings she performs for people in need. Brogan has become a leading voice in exploring the correlation between mental health and cleanliness, and joins me today to share what inspires her to help so many. Paulette Senior, CEO of the Canadian Women’s Foundation joins me to discuss the unique discrimination and systemic barriers that impact Black women and girls in Canada. And finally Jennifer Slay stops in to chat to about Women LEAD, a community created with the intention of becoming a source of support for women in all areas of leadership.

Fair Taxation, Attitude of Gratitude, Wellness with Self-compassion, MLM Nightmare and MOVE!

Sat, 25 Feb 2023 00:00:00 -0000

Tax season has arrived and a lot of Canadians are questioning the fairness of our system. Despite overwhelming support for reform amongst the electorate there seems to be little political will to enact a wealth tax. Erika Beauchesne, the communications coordinator at Canadians for Tax Fairness, a non-profit organization that advocates for fair taxation to reduce inequality and strengthen the economy, joins me to discuss. In the second interview today we focus on the attitude of gratitude and how to make it a daily part of your life with Dr. Maxine McClean. Dr. McClean has a new book out called Gratitude Keeper - No Water, No Rain that aims to help people live a more balanced life through journaling, meditation, and daily inspirational cards. Anne Brodie is in with new entertainment and this week we take a look at Juniper starring the mighty Charlotte Rampling, the uber creepy The Consultant on Prime that takes a dark look at the modern workplace, and the delightful Eugene Levy steps out of his comfort zone in the new AppleTV+ series The Reluctant Traveller. Are you new year’s health resolutions a distant memory now? Before you beat yourself up, Jasmine Parent from I Am Worthy Wellness pops by to discuss her unique approach to wellness that starts with a healthy dose of self-compassion. Multi-level marketing is everywhere and you may be part of one yourself, but Julie Anderson wants you to think twice about your involvement as either a consumer or a direct seller. Julie joins me to discuss a little about her journey with a consumer cult. Finally Martina Bosede is a new Canadian and we’re so happy to have her, as she brings her incredible talent as a international open format DJ with here. Martina has worked with singers such as Rihanna, 50 Cent and Kelis and joins me today to share her newest single called MOVE.

The MLM Trap: The Reality Behind the Promises of Financial Freedom for Women

Thu, 23 Feb 2023 00:00:00 -0000

Oh man, I feel like I’m really stepping into it today with this podcast. But its an important topic to tackle so that women can be empowered with knowledge to make informed decisions. With that being said, today we’re talking about Multi-Level Marketing schemes, or MLMs. MLMs are notorious for selling women in particular a dream of autonomy and financial freedom. They promise flexible working hours, unlimited income potential, and the ability to be their own boss. However, the reality they sell is far from the dream. MLMs rely on a model that focuses on recruiting people to recruit others and according to the Federal Trade Commission, 99% of recruited sellers actually lose money in an MLM venture, and a recent survey found that most people make less than 70 cents an hour before deducting business costs. Yet, MLMs continue to market their products through personal networks and social media platforms, with many women getting messages from friends, family, and barely-acquaintances selling everything from essential oils and wine to makeup and clothing. So Before we go any further, let me be clear that we are not here to judge anyone who has either purchased from or been on the representative side, of an MLM. And in full disclosure I was caught up in an MLM myself briefly during my divorce. I completely understand the appeal of the promise of financial independence, and MLMs know how to tap into that desire. However, my next guest explores the tactics MLMs used to lure women in and the reality of what it's like to participate in one of these schemes, and the pain of leaving. So, join me as we uncover the truth behind MLMs and their impact on women. Meet Julie Anderson.

The Anti-Valentine Show that Celebrates Girlfriends, Young Love, Old Love & Poop

Fri, 10 Feb 2023 00:00:00 -0000

Galentine’s Day is on the 13th of February, and I asked Jessica Painter founder of In Her Circle to join me. essica has created a community that helps women fight loneliness and build authentic, supportive friend circles. Jessica and I discuss the importance of having a solid squad, and how to celebrate the bonds of sisterhood not just on February 13th but every day of the year. Aly Pain is back to discuss the teens in our lives and how could we not take a look at teen love. Before you dismiss it as puppy love it’s important to pause and take their romantic relationships seriously. Parents can help their child navigate this important stage of development and set the foundation for healthy relationships in the future simply by practicing empathy and listening with an open mind. Anne Brodie pops in with new entertainment which includes the documentary The Eye Has to Travel about the iconic fashion legend Diana Vreeland available on Amazon Prime now, also available on Prime is Somebody I Used to Know, starring Alison Brie who also who co-wrote the film with her husband and director Dave Franco, which has a sly new twist for a leading lady in a romantic movie , plus The Love Club on W just in time for the hopeless romantics out there. Singles Day falls on the 15th of February, and there has been loads of evidence presented lately that says that unmarried, childless women are the happiest subgroup of the population. Yet as we approach Valentine’s Day there is a societal pressure put on the single ladies. So I called on Nora Spinks, CEO of Work-Life Harmony Enterprises, to join me to discuss the stigma of singleism, why unmarried and childless women are so darn happy, and how to avoid some of the loneliness that single women may feel. Dating after divorce is about as enticing as a root canal. It can be daunting jumping back in the dating game after a long marriage, and believe me when I say everything you know about dating has changed. Nadine Araksi has your back. Nadine has personally experienced the difficulties of navigating the dating scene, written about her experience for Chatelaine, and joined me with Chapter 2 Dating for an extended podcast on this subject. If you’re currently thinking about throwing yourself back in the dating ring, listen to this interview first. Finally, I don’t even know what to say about the fact that along with celebrating Galentine’s Day, Valentine’s Day and Single’s Day this week, there is also National Poop Day coming up on February 13th. Perhaps I should have put this at the Number 2 segment in today’s show? Either way Dr. Ashley Margeson joins me for a couple of laughs but some serious info about your health and how a lot of how you’re doing starts with taking a good look at why you leave in the bowl. Oh, c’mon we all do it.

Managing Mortgage Stress, What We Deserve, Feeling Grüvi, and Healthcare Pushback

Thu, 02 Feb 2023 00:00:00 -0000

If you have a variable mortgage rate on your home, you are no doubt feeling the pinch this month after yet another interest rate hike by the Bank of Canada. Richelle Morgan understands the unique challenges women face on their journey to becoming homeowners and in this case, staying homeowners. She joins me to discuss some ways to navigate this stressful time and remain in your home. Shelley Jarrett co-produced and co-wrote the new documentary What We Deserve which takes a look at how over 10 million Africans were stolen from their homes and forcefully transported to the Caribbean as the enslaved chattel and property of Europeans. Shelley decided to take a deep dive on this subject after Queen Elizabeth’s death, and found herself surprised by some of the things she learned. Anne Brodie is here with entertainment including places to find great content during Black History Month, the girl gang movie of the year 80 for Brady starring Jane Fonda, Sally Field, Lily Tomlin, and Rita Moreno, plus the super creepy Knock at the Cabin Door with Dave Bautista, and finally Alice Darling starring Anna Kendrick in a role that will hit a little too close to home for many women. Dry January may be over, but momentum is pushing many to stick with it for Dry February, especially in light of new alcohol consumption guidelines from Health Canada. Anika Sawni has helped create a solution for those looking to stay sober curious by co-founding Grüvi, a Canadian line of alcohol-free beers and wines that provide a healthy and enjoyable alternative for people looking to stay sober. Anika joins me to share the story behind the brand and with some tips for those starting their own sober journey. Canadians have always been quite proud of our universal public health care system. We are leaders on the global stage, and healthcare to this point does not bankrupt people but there are cracks appearing and provincial governments across the country are pushing us closer and closer to privatization. Ontario in particular is on high alert after the Ford government recently announced funding for private, for profit clinics or hospitals in Ontario. Shelley Roebuck from the Ontario Health Coalition joins me to discuss how they are pushing back and how we can get involved. Finally, its heart month and women in particular are at a higher risk for heart failure and heart attack death than men. Thankfully Dr. Claudia Machiella from The Wellness Prescription is here today to share some of her best tips for keeping your heart in tip top shape.

Knowing this, there needs to be an awareness that we are portraying and sharing black history and stories responsibly. Selam Debs is an antiracism educator, and anti-oppression coach. She joins me today with some advice for organizations and institutions as we head into February so that coverage is ethical instead of performative. Life for women in 2023 is chaotic. Between work and home, our mental and physical health, plus the never-ending barrage of information we must wade through, it can often feel like we’re not moving ahead and it can and does affect our productivity. Thankfully we now have an app for that. Sandra Veledar is the founder behind I.Liv, a Life Productivity App that comes paired with Program and Mindset Training.

Finally, the one and only Amber Mac joins me to discuss artificial intelligence and how it’s creating a critical skills gap in our country.

Thu, 19 Jan 2023 00:00:00 -0000

If you haven’t used ChatGPT or similar AI platforms yet, trust me when I say, you will. AI is here to stay and with it comes a host of concerns for your privacy and security. Thankfully we have Cat Coode on the case. Cat helps individuals and corporations better understand cybersecurity and data privacy and joins me today to discuss what we all should be thinking about when using artificial intelligence. Until recently menopause was a topic we didn’t openly discuss. Thankfully that is changing and there are a host of organizations and experts leading the charge to help educate women on this time of life that can last anywhere from seven to 14 years. Samantha Monpetit_Huynh is an online health coach who specializes in helping women 40+ navigate menopause and midlife through her comprehensive coaching program. She joins me to day to share her thoughts on hormone therapy. Anne Brodie jumps in with a female-centric Saturday Night at the Movies this week, starting with a closer look at Sarah Polley’s gut-wrenching adaptation of Miriam Toews book, Women Talking. This fact-based story follows a group of women from a conservative religious colony who meet to discuss how to respond to a series of sexual assaults in their community and the steps they should take. Do nothing. Stay and fight. Or leave. We also chat about the documentary Ever Deadly that follows throat singer Tanya Tagaq’s transformation of sound with an eye to colonial fallout, natural freedom and Canadian history. Burlesque, as we know it in North America, is an art form that has stood the test of time since the mid 1800s. Lauren Jiles aka Lou Lou la Duchesse de Rière, is an internationally renowned neo-burlesque dancer, and teacher hailing from Quebec. Voted into the Burlesque Top 50 by 21st Century Burlesque and currently ranked the second most influential burlesque figure in world, Lou Lou has also made history by becoming the first Indigenous woman to be crowned New Orleans Queen of Burlesque. She joins me to share how she fell into this career path and her journey to the top. Have you ever heard of the motherhood penalty? Even if you haven’t, there’s a good chance you’ve been dinged by it. Allison Venditti from Moms At Work joins me to share how the motherhood penalty shows up in places of employment, how the fatherhood bonus plays out, and what you can do to help change this reality. Finally, Ally Cribb is a star on the rise in Canada and her new album Unbroken is leaving an indelible mark on listeners with thousands of streams each week, dozens of media reviews and a finalist spot in the Song Academy Competition’s international category. Ally joins me to share a little about her songwriting process before we play the single California for you in its entirety at the end of today’s show.

Is Sleeveless Scandalous, Doug Ford Lies, Post-Traumatic Growth, & Weathering the Financial Storm

Fri, 13 Jan 2023 00:00:00 -0000

It’s no secret that women in media are often subjected to criticism about their looks that their male counterparts rarely hear. It’s 2023 and this needs to stop. My first guest today is an award-winning journalist with over two decades of experience in the industry and while we should be celebrating that part of the story, we’re not. Sadly despite all of Tess van Straaten’s hard work committed to her craft, she is often subjected to to comments about appearance that diminish and detract from her achievements, as she was recently when someone wrote a letter criticizing her sleeveless dress on air. She joins me to discuss her viral story. 2023 is the year we shift out of languishing and into post-traumatic growth. Candy Ho, Board Chair of Ceric, the only charitable organization of its kind in Canada, focused on career development education and research joins me today to discuss today to share insights on how to navigate the current workplace and workforce realities, in addition to resources available for those looking to build purposeful careers after nearly three years of disruption. Anne Brodie is here with entertainment and this week we take a look at LIVING, starring the absolutely wonderful Bill Nighy, in the story of an ordinary man, reduced by years of oppressive office routine to a shadow existence, who at the eleventh hour makes a supreme effort to turn his dull life into something wonderful. Plus Aftersun, from writer/director Charlotte Wells which dominated the Toronto Film Critics Association Awards this year. For years, nurses across the country have been sounding the alarm about the impact that staffing shortages are having on patient care—yet those warning calls have continually gone unanswered. Ontario in particular is facing a full-blown healthcare crisis and nurses have reached a breaking point. To add insult to injury, Internal documents by the Ministry of Health were released this week through the freedom of information act that shows the Ontario government knew that passing Bill 124 would worsen the province’s healthcare staffing crisis. Dianne Martin from WeRPN joins me to discuss. Finally, finances are a top concern for most Canadians right now so Stephanie Chabot from the Finance Diaries is here with some tips for riding out the storm. Stephanie believes that by being able to openly discuss finance topics: we can understand them better, avoid mistakes others have made, feel more empowered, and make better decisions.

Michelle Nadon's company, mediaINTELLIGENCE.ca, links today’s businesses with top talent through innovative talent acquisition and recruitment models, and cutting-edge career enrichment programs. She joins me today to share some tips for making a career shift in 2023. How much do you know about your Facebook friends? Amy Daughters began writing handwritten letters to an old camp friend Dana when she learned her son was sick with cancer, after his death the two women continued to correspond through the mail. This rich, meaningful experience led Amy to write handwritten letters to all 580 of her Facebook friends, and as it turns out, there were real, extraordinary individuals living very real lives behind each social media profile. Amy joins me to share the story. Anne Brodie is back with entertainment for 2023, and this week we take a look at A Man Called Otto starring everyone’s favourite Hollywood actor, Tom Hanks, plus a look at Hold Me Tight, a psychological montage of a woman’s moments, scattered across time and place and The Case Against Cosby with Canadian athlete and hero Andrea Constand, a towering figure in the #metoo movement. Women over 50 are having a moment and we’re here for it at What She Said. Sherrilynne Starkie is an award-winning digital communications consultant with more than 20 years experience working with private and public sector clients in Canada, Britain and the USA. Her new podcast 50 Women Over 50 is a passion project in which she is interviewing women past their 50th birthday to learn how they see the world, what lessons they’ve learned and what advice they have for us all. Aly Pain kicks off the first of 12 interviews this year about the parent/teen relationship and this week we look at a hot-button issue for many parents, how to best support and motivate teenagers who are struggling academically. It's natural for parents and guardians to want their teens to succeed in school, and grades can be an important measure of progress. But sometimes, despite our best efforts, teens may struggle with their grades. Aly jumps in with some advice. Finally, the last few weeks have seen some crazy changes with the advancement of artificial intelligence, specifically with ChatGPT. What does this mean for people who make a living in writing? Kate Wallace is a copywriter, scriptwriter and brand storytelling consultant. Her custom copy helps her clients capture the attention of target audiences and drive business impacts. A national award-winning journalist, Kate joins me to share her thoughts on the latest development in artificial intelligence and what it means for those with a career in writing.

How to Dismantle Public Education For Dummies

Thu, 05 Jan 2023 00:00:00 -0000

Public education is essential to a civilized society. It provides individuals with the knowledge and skills they need to fully participate in and contribute to their community. It also helps to create a more equal and just society by providing everyone with access to education, regardless of their socio-economic status or other factors. Public education helps to promote critical thinking and problem-solving skills, and it can also foster a sense of civic responsibility and social cohesion. In addition, research has shown that public education has a number of positive impacts on society, including improved health outcomes, increased economic growth, and a reduction in crime rates. And yet, despite all the evidence that public education plays a crucial role in the development and prosperity of any society, it is under threat in Canada. So today, I play devil’s advocate to Dr. Prachi Srivastava. Dr. Srivastava is a tenured Associate Professor, Western University, specialising in education and global development. She is also Member, World Bank Expert Advisory Council on Citizen Engagement, and Senior Research Fellow, NORRAG. She has been invited to provide expertise and commentary on COVID-19 education disruptions by the UNICEF Office of Global Insight and Policy, UNESCO, the BE2 education donor working group, and a range of global and Canadian civil society and non-governmental organisations. Needless to say, she could write the book on the value of public education but today we’re going to write a different book. We’ll call it the The Dummies Guide to Dismantling Public Education, where we explore the critical juncture in the education system and discuss the alarming issues that threaten to dismantle the well-functioning public education system in Canada. We break down the steps that those looking to dismantle public education might take and highlight the evidence that supports the importance of public education for society and individuals. We also discuss the motivations behind efforts to dismantle public education and the potential consequences of such actions.

Calm in the Chaos: How to Find Serenity in a Fast-Paced World with Chris Bailey

Fri, 30 Dec 2022 00:00:00 -0000

We all know, productivity advice is crucial in today's fast-paced world, but it's equally important that we also develop our capacity for calm. By finding calm, we not only feel more relaxed and at ease, but we also build a deeper, more expansive reservoir of energy to draw from throughout the day. Chris joins me today to discuss a range of topics, including how the analog and digital worlds affect calm and anxiety in different ways, how our desire for the neurochemical dopamine can lead to anxiety and a lack of appreciation for everyday experiences, and how hidden sources of stress can be tamed by a "stimulation fast." He'll also be sharing how we can use the science of "savoring" to become more present and enjoy life more, and how "busyness" is as much a state of mind as it is an actual state of life. So join us as we delve into the pursuit of calm and how it ultimately leads us to become more engaged, focused, and deliberate, while making us more productive and satisfied with our lives. In an anxious world, investing in calm can be considered the best productivity strategy around. Meet Chris Bailey. Find the book here: https://amzn.to/3Ib7i0G

Avoiding January's Financial Hangover, Healthy Holidays, Fresh Starts, and 2023's Handbook

Fri, 16 Dec 2022 00:00:00 -0000

In the week leading up to Christmas many of us find ourselves in panic mode because we often feel like we haven’t bought enough, or maybe that we should expand our giving list by adding obscure people we don’t really know. Nancie Taylor, Senior Wealth Advisor at Meridian Credit Union is here to encourage us to press pause on the present panic button so that we can roll into 2023 without the overspending hangover. Anne Brodie stops in with entertainment to keep you busy over the holidays and shares her thoughts on Sarah Polley's achingly poignant Women Talking based on the book by ex-Mennonite Miriam Toews, The Whale with a critically acclaimed performance from Brendan Fraser, and the confection we all need right now with Season 3 of Emily in Paris returning to Netflix on December 21st. Stress can affect our behaviors and habits, such as our sleep patterns, exercise habits, and eating habits, which can also contribute to an increased risk of illness. As part of our ongoing series with New Roots Herbal, I’m joined by Angela Wallace from Eat Right Feel Right who shares some tips for avoiding the some of the health risks we subject ourselves to when stressed. When’s the best time for a fresh start? Lindsay Sealey, from Bold New Girls and author of Made for More, A Fresh Start Approach to a Bolder, Brighter You, says right now is the best time. Waiting for a specific date on a calendar only delays us from stepping into the life we really want. Finally, Chris Bailey, productivity expert and international bestselling author of The Productivity Project and Hyperfocus joins me to discuss his latest book How to Calm Your Mind, Finding presence and productivity in anxious times. I’ve had the privilege of reading and putting into practice many of this book’s recommendations ahead of it’s official release date on December 27th, and whole-heartedly believe this book should be required reading for everyone in 2023. You won’t want to miss Chris’s calming advice.

Attitude of Gratitude, Intersectional Feminism, Free Air For All and One Wish

Thu, 08 Dec 2022 00:00:00 -0000

Since January The Sacred Space Coaching has been joining What She Said to help get us unstuck so that we can step into our power and live full rich lives. In the final segment of the year Jennifer John joins me to discuss cultivating an attitude of gratitude and how to leverage that to get unstuck and to enjoy our lives fully. Samanta Krishnapillai from OnCanada Project is back and this week we look at intersectional feminism. As women’s rights are being rolled back around the globe, the need for strong feminist voices is more crucial than ever but in order to achieve true equality we must make space for the most marginalized and oppressed groups of women to take centre stage. Anne Brodie drops in with new entertainment which includes a look at Guilerrmo Del Toro's Pinnochio out on Netflix now, Olivia Colman in Sam Mendes' doomed seaside romance Empire of Light and All the Beauty and the Bloodshed, Laura Poitras' documentary on artist Nan Goldin whose grassroots political activism went after Big Pharma Purdue and the Sackler Family that created a chain of drug use that has to date cost more than half a million lives with oxycontin. We all know by now that all-weather or winter tires are a must for Canadian winters, so this year Tiffany Woodley from Kaltire is here to discuss our tire pressure, something many of us give very little thought to but definitely should since it has a huge impact on our car’s efficiency, and more importantly safety. The holidays mean an abundance of food is all around us, particularly all those foods we label as naughty. Josée Cormier and Alicia Stafford from Your Way Weight Loss join me to discuss why diets don’t work, why we need to shake off our scarcity mindset, and the importance of losing the labels we attach to food so that we can breeze through the holiday buffet table with zero regrets. Finally, Alecia Aichelle was told she would never sing again after complications with throat surgery to remove a tumour on her thyroid gland.

Diet Disrupters, Meet the Duo Taking Down the Diet Industry One Donut at A Time

Thu, 08 Dec 2022 00:00:00 -0000

What if this year we vowed to do things differently? What if instead of plowing through December either depriving ourselves of delicious food, or indulging in it all anticipating starving ourselves in January, we parked all our hangups and misconceptions, and took a fresh look at how we nourish ourselves. What if before we signed up for that diet plan or invested thousands of dollars in meal plans and shakes, we stepped back to assess how our mindset affects how we eat? My guests today are here to help you shake off years of misinformation, shame, and even trauma when it comes to food, so that you can let go of all the mental space food takes up in your brain, and focus on more important things. Meet diet disrupters Josée Cormier and Alicia Stafford from Your Way Weight Loss who join me to share how to change your relationship with food for good.

Signal For Help, Teens at Christmas, Surviving a Layoff, & Sober Holidays

Fri, 02 Dec 2022 00:00:00 -0000

You’ve likely seen the viral Signal for Help that women have been sharing on social media since the pandemic started but you probably don’t know that this initiative was created by the Canadian Women’s Foundation. Pamela Di Pinto is the manager of the Signal for Help and joins me today to share how it started, some very public success stories of it working, and more importantly how you should respond should someone send you this signal. Christmas with teens can be challenging for both sides. Parents are often left shellshocked as their sweet excitable child is replaced by a sullen anti-social teen, and teens are left wondering what all the fuss is about anyway. Aly Pain, What She Said’s expert on the parent/teen dynamic is here today with some tips for getting through this year’s holiday with comfort, and joy. Anne Brodie has heaps of new entertainment including South Korea's stunning espionage thriller Hunt, the emotionally charged The Eternal Daughter starring the amazing Tilda Swinton playing a dual role as mother and daughter, the wait is finally over Three Pines on Amazon Prime, and the very steamy, super hot Lady Chatterley’s Love on Netflix that is going to give the wedding scene on The Highlander a run for it’s money. Layoffs are becoming headlines all too frequently right now and it can cause anxiety for those that fear they may be next. Natalie Romero knows how you’re feeling all too well, after being laid off this summer from Shopify. Natalie joins me to share her best tips for getting through a lay off in the best shape possible. If you’re sober curious or have given up drinking entirely, the holidays can be challenging. Sarah Kate from somegoodcleanfun.com stops by with some tips on everything from what to drink, to preparing mentally, to being the only sober person in the room. This interview is great fun for everyone, whether you drink or not, if only because it offers perspective of the other side, and that’s important when we gather to celebrate. Finally, where you spend your money this holiday season matters. Every time you spend money, you’re casting a vote for the kind of world you want to live in. Erin Brillon from Totem Design House is here to share ways to ensure your dollar helps instead of hurts, especially when it comes to purchasing indigenous made items.

Millennial Finances, Menopause is a Gender Equity Issue, Who's on the PTA, & Louise Penny

Thu, 24 Nov 2022 00:00:00 -0000

Over the last few months we’ve been chatting finances for generations with Meridian Credit Union and this week we’re looking at Millennials who often get a bad rap when it comes to finances. So today we’re leaving behind the ridiculous narrative that says they’re broke because of avocado toast and expensive lattes, and diving into the matter seriously with Maryam Mahdavifar from Meridian Credit Union. Menopause is something all women will experience at some point in their life, yet at least half of us are completely unprepared when it arrives. The lack of knowledge about menopause leaves millions of women struggling to understand what is happening to their bodies, why they may be feeling the way they do, and whether treatment and support is available. Janet Ko, President of the Menopause Foundation of Canada, a national non-profit organization dedicated to raising awareness of the impact of menopause on women and society joins me to discuss. Anne Brodie is glued to the screen now that awards season is hear but she tears herself away this week to give us an update on what’s new including a look at Poland's EO, a submission for the Best International Feature Oscar, the riveting The Swimmers on Netflix which recreates the real-life struggles of two young Syrian women, and the gloriously eccentric Please Baby Please available on TVOD. We ignore what happens in our local elections at our peril, particularly when it comes to education. Dr. Prachi Srivastava, who specialises in education and global development joins me to discuss school governance and why we need to be paying attention to who is directly impacting policy at this level. Louise Penny fans are chomping at the bit for Amazon Prime Video’s release of Three Pine’s starring Alfred Molina. Anne Brodie had the honour of chatting with Penny ahead of the series premiere and shares a bit of it with us today. Finally, we close out this week’s show with Chelle, a Pop singer-songwriter from Toronto. Chèlle’s unique sound, as well as performance style with her 5 piece band, attracts a wide range of age groups, with people from all walks of life. She joins me to discuss the inspiration behind her newest single, “Think of Me” before we play the song for you.

Christmas Mindset, Marrying a Daredevil, ADHD in Teens, and Room For Her

Fri, 18 Nov 2022 00:00:00 -0000

Just hear those sleigh bells ringing, along with the alarm bells in your head as your stress levels move into overload the closer the holidays get. This year though The Sacred Space wants you shift your mindset early so the holidays not only leave you feeling rested but prepared to hit the ground running in 2023. Denise Chand joins me to discuss. What happens when one risk adverse person meets a daredevil? They get married of course. Danielle Kaplan joins me to share details from her new book I Married a Thrill Seeker which shares the true story of her husband Stephen’s last solo free-spirited ride in the Yukon, that ended horrifically and changed their lives forever in an instant. Anne Brodie is here with the latest in entertainment with a look at The Menu starring Raph Fiennes which gives a new disturbing twist to the phrase ‘eat the rich’, the true and sad story of two Montreal influencers who chase fame and riches and end up in prison in Australia, and the very sweet Slumberland starring Jason Momoa which is perfect entertainment for the whole family. Aly Pain is here, fresh on the heels of her own ADHD diagnosis to discuss what ADHD looks like in teens, and how to best support kids who have it. Women’s mental health has been declining and more and more of us are seeking ways to address it. Thankfully there is help with Room for Her, a FREE service that offers digital cognitive behaviour therapy for one year. This incredible initiative is being supported by Greenshield Canada and Mila Lucio, executive Vice President of Human Resources and Social Impact at Green Shield Canada joins me to share details. Finally, with the Ford government trying to develop the greenbelt in Ontario, and farmland across the country at risk I thought it would be a good time to re-air an interview I did with Peggy Brekveld this summer. Peggy is President of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture, which represents over 38,000 farm families across Ontario who joined me to discuss their Home Grown campaign. We all need to know what’s at risk when we lose farmland.

Poilievre's Use of MGTOW, Unions Stand Firm and Ford Blinks, Brain Health, and The Rooftop Garden

Fri, 11 Nov 2022 00:00:00 -0000

It’s possible you missed the news about Pierre Poilievre’s use of the #MGTOW hashtag on his YouTube channel or perhaps you’re not sure what all the fuss about it is for, so Samanta Krishnapillai from OnCanada Project joins me to discuss why women across Canada, no matter where they sit on the political spectrum, should be concerned about it. This week, we saw unions across the country unite in a show of solidarity not seen in years, to push back against the Ontario provincial government’s legislation that aimed to take away the bargaining rights of CUPE, but also would have set a precedent for all workers if they got away with it. Laura Walton, President of CUPE OSBCU joins me to discuss how they got the government back to the bargaining table. Dr. Patricia Wu joins me to chat about the benefits of mushrooms on everything from brain health to immunity support as part of our ongoing series with New Roots Herbal aimed to educate consumers on the benefits of supplements. Anne Brodie is here and this week we’ve got a bit of a British focus with a look at Season 5 of The Crown on Netflix, The English available on Prime Video, which stars the uber talented Emily Blunt who also produced the series, and a series on etiquette on Netflix called Mind Your Manners which hopefully will help return some civility to our society. Finally and most important to me, is the release of two new Christmas movies coming up this season! The Rooftop Garden, is a new novel from the host of The Globe and Mail’s The Decibel podcast, Menaka Raman-Wilms, which explores timely themes including climate anxiety and the political radicalization of young men. She joins me to her why for penning her first novel. Finally, Anne had the honour of sitting in on a group interview with the Cast of Season 5 on the Crown which includes Imelda Staunton as Queen Elizabeth, Jonathon Pryce at Prince Philip, and Elizabeth Debicki as Princess Diana to name a few of the top talent in this season. We’ll listen in to a bit of that at the end of today’s show.

Greedflation, Good Food on a Budget, The Mother of All DeGrassi and Supergirl Syndrome

Fri, 04 Nov 2022 00:00:00 -0000

When Loblaws announced last month that they were freezing prices on their no name brands, the response wasn’t favourable. The public, already at or past the financial breaking point, saw it for what it was, a PR stunt meant to distract from the fact that they are making record profits at the same time that food banks are seeing their higher demand ever. Melissa Silber, aims to educate the Canadian public on large corporate conglomerates in Canada, as well as help entrepreneurs and small business owners and joins me today to discuss greedflation. From the price of groceries in stores to managing the reality at home, Puneeta Chhitwal-Varma, a food and sustainability author who teaches people how to lead a low-waste, people+planet friendly lifestyle through her website Maple and Marigold is on a mission to help a million people change how they cook and eat, while creating positive habits in their kitchen and at home, and yes, on a budget. Anne Brodie is in with entertainment and the Oscar contenders keep coming, with Florence Pugh coming in strong in The Wonder available on Netflix this month, and two documentaries about music megastars with My Life as a Rolling Stone which takes a deep dive on each member of this iconic band, and The Return of Tanya Tucker. Degrassi Fans will want to stick around for this interview. Linda Schuyler is the executive producer and co-creator of over 500 episodes of the internationally recognized, multi-award winning Degrassi television franchise. Her memoir,The Mother of all Degrassi,is out now, and Linda joins me to share the a little bit behind her incredible story. Lindsay Sealey, author of Made for More is back with a look at the “supergirl syndrome” and how it places undue pressure on GenZ women and girls. Lindsay shares some tips that we can employ to help them, and possibly even help ourselves escape from this trap. Finally, Sonshine and Broccoli the JUNO-nominated duo from Toronto who know how important it is for children to have music of their own have released a new album. Lisa Sonshine joins me to discuss how the pandemic pushed them to write this album for today’s kids, and then shares the song Born to Be Brave with us, a song kids and adults will love.

Theatre Pivot, Undercover Kindness, and Maintaining Your Sanity in an Upside Down World

Fri, 28 Oct 2022 00:00:00 -0000

Theatre took a blow during the pandemic, but who better to tackle the challenges than a creative crew. Laurie Steven is an award-winning director, playwright, dramaturge, and the founding Artistic Director of Odyssey Theatre who joins me to share how her theatre group has embraced the growing genre of audio dramas with The Other Path, a unique collection of modern folklore that tackles today’s big issues on your favourite podcast provider. We’re all starved for some kindness, so I’m delighted to have my dear friend Erica Ehm join me to discuss The Undercover Kindness Project from The Ontario Caregivers Organization that she has partnered with to help spread comfort and joy to unsuspectiing caregivers who desperately could use our support. Anne Brodie is here with entertainment and this week she shares what she feels will be an Oscar contender with Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson and Barry Keoghan for their gut-wrenching performances in The Banshees of Inisherin, South Korea’s Official Oscar Selection for International Feature Film Decision to Leave, and Margaret Brown's stunning documentary Descendent, now on Netflix. Choosing to be compassionate over cynical is hard in a world that keeps throwing us curveballs but its the only way through. Leisse Wilcox joins me to to share her three top tips for helping others while maintaining your sanity in a topsy-turvy world. Added bonus Leisse’s voice is like butter and if nothing else will soothe your soul just listening to her. We’ve talked a lot about mid-life lately on this show, so today I offer up someone who is walking the talk. Lesley Crewe wrote her first book at 50 and since then has published 14 books. She joins me to share more on this life pivot and details on her new book Nosy Parker. Finally, writing a book is a lot of work. Now imagine also creating an online world and soundtrack where fans can fully immerse themselves in your fictional world. That’s exactly what my final guest Sienna Tristen has done with her husband Avi Silver in The Heretic’s Guide to Homecoming, a labour of love that is less plot more vibes built over the last decade.

GenX Finances, Smells like Teen Spirit, Canada's Education Goals, and No Sleep Tonight

Fri, 21 Oct 2022 00:00:00 -0000

More financially educated than Baby Boomers, but less so than Millennials; GenX has found their way into a vast range of high paying careers, and have earned (and spent) an exuberant amount of money. Today Kavaughn Boismier from Meridian Credit Union joins me to discuss the unique challenges this cohort is facing and how to navigate through it all. For parents of teens there is often nothing more frustrating than when a teens intentions and execution don’t align. So how do you manage it without blowing your top? Aly Pain, What She Said’s own expert on all things adolescence joins me to discuss how to manage this very tricky scenario without losing your cool and encouraging your teen to keep going. Anne Brodie is in with this week’s new releases which includes a look at a new documentary on the legendary Buffy Ste. Marie, plus the funny and heart wrenching Ray & Raymond starring Ewan McGregor and Ethan Hawke, plus the Good Nurse with Jessica Chastain and Eddie Redmayne, and the Peripheral, a new series on Amazon which envisions a somewhat brighter future. Dr. Prachi Srivastava is back to discuss education in Canada and this week we take a look at where Canada sits on a global stage and what we should be striving for right now when it comes to 17 Sustainable Development Goals established by the United Nations. I replay an interview this week that I did last year around this time with the one and only Melissa Dilkes Pateras who skyrocketed to over a million followers on TikTok sharing laundry hacks. Who knew laundry could be so compelling? Finally, Ottawa native Steph LaRochelle pops by to discuss her debut album Wildflower and to share the single No Sleep Tonight with us.

The Appalling Rise in Transphobia, Gen Z's Quest for More, Magic Mushrooms and Homeless Concerns

Fri, 14 Oct 2022 00:00:00 -0000

I welcomed my first guest Amanda Jetté Knox onto the show three years ago to discuss their book Love Lives Here. Today they join me to discuss the alarming rise in transphobic hate and why 2022 was the first year they feared for their life doing their job as an advocate for the 2SLGBTQI+ community. Lindsay Sealey, author of Made for More is back to discuss Gen Z women and girls and this week we take a look at the relentless pursuit of MORE. More money, more cars, more clothes but is that really making us happy? Of course we all know the answer to that so how then can we help our girls find the more that really matters, more love, more fulfillment, more peace. As always Anne Brodie is in with entertainment and this week we take a look at Shantaram on Apple TV+ starring Charlie Hunnam who takes us on an extreme adventure in Bombay, Plan A on TVOD which is based on the true story of a cell of Jewish underground resistance members, Welcome to Wrexham on FX Disney + starring Canada’s favourite son, Ryan Reynolds, and Big Bad Budget Battle with the Pioneer Woman. Mushrooms are enjoying a moment in the sun as we learn more and more about their health benefits. As part of our ongoing partnership with New Roots Herbal we take a closer look today with Dr. Colleen Hartwick who breaks down their benefits on everything from brain health to immune support. Despite increased international attention the number of people falling victim to human trafficking around the world continues to grow and Canada is no exception. Alexandra Stevenson knows this all too well as a victim of sex trafficking. She joins me to share what we need to know to prevent this from happening to more young women and girls. Finally, homelessness is on the rise across Canda due to a variety of factors but the bottom line is that too many people will be cold, unsheltered, and hungry this winter. Our response needs to be swift. Dr. Karen Shin from St. Michael’s Hospital in Toronto joins me to discuss.

How Sex Traffickers Groom Victims with Alexandra Stevenson aka The Laughing Survivor

Thu, 13 Oct 2022 00:00:00 -0000

Human Trafficking is often thought of as something that only happens in foreign countries, or to those who are uneducated, perhaps poor. These are dangerous concepts to hold on to. My next guest grew up in suburbia in an idyllic neighbourhood. A straight A student, self-described nerd, a young activist, no one would have thought Alexandra Stevenson would end up the victim of human sex trafficking, especially Alexandra who only came to realize she was trafficked 10 years after her escape from her groomer. It’s a harrowing story with a lot of lessons we all need to sit up and pay attention to. In the podcast Alexandra shares how sex assault as a child led her straight into the arms of a trafficker as a late teen. She also shares the five stages of grooming, something we should all know how to identify, and what it’s like to parent young children with CPTSD. I’m largely silent in this podcast, because the story is simultaneously horrific, uplifting, and educational. Meet Alexandra AKA, The Laughing Survivor.

Truth and Reconciliation All Year Long, Starve the Hunger, Managing the Midlife Crisis and More

Fri, 07 Oct 2022 00:00:00 -0000

Truth and Reconciliation Day has passed and Orange shirts have been packed away for another year. This does not mean we can move on for another year. Only 10 of the 94 calls to action from the Truth and Reconciliation Commission have been addressed, which means activism needs to be less performative and more constructive. Samanta Krishnapillai from On Canada Project joins me to share what that should look like. Thanksgiving will not be a happy occasion for over a million Canadians this year, as inflation forces more and more people to seek relief from Canada’s food banks. Food insecurity and hunger is at an all-time high and food banks are stretched to help support soaring demand. Kirstin Beardsley, CEO of Food Banks Canada wants all Canadians to know that food alone will not solve hunger and food insecurity in Canada – and shares how we can all get involved to help our neighbours and communities. Anne Brodie pops in with enough new entertainment to get you through a long weekend and the anticipated turkey coma. Lena Dunham is back with a new show she wrote and directed on Amazon Prime called Catherine Called Birdy which Anne says is a triumph of innovation and imagination. House of Hammer on Discovery takes a look at the family legacy of violence, abuse, drugs, and murder over generations in one of the world’s wealthiest families. Plus The Lincoln Project on Showtime which takes a look at the the fastest-growing super PAC in America, as they take on the task of “saving democracy” and defeating their own party’s sitting president. Mid-life can be a crisis for some and a time of release for others, and all of that depends largely on your mindset going into it. Jennifer John from The Sacred Space Coaching pops by with some tips on moving through this time of life with intention and purpose so that you can write the best next chapter of your life. Who doesn’t want to be a badass? Jennifer Cassetta wants to help you achieve that goal with her new book The Art of Badassery, Unleash Your Mojo with Wisdom of the Dojo and lays out how you can attain black belt status in your life with this easy to follow self-help book that helps you harness the wisdom, tools, and tactics she learned on the dojo mat. Finally, Vanessa Vakharia who is half of the rock duo Goodnight Sunrise, stops by to discuss their latest single One Pill before we play it for you in its entirety.

Unleashing Your Mojo with the Wisdom of the Dojo - Interview with Jennifer Cassetta

Thu, 06 Oct 2022 00:00:00 -0000

Whether the opponent is a financial hardship, a difficult boss, being in a manipulative relationship, or emerging from a pandemic, my next guest’s new book The Art of Badassery (unleash your mojo with the wisdom of the dojo) teaches readers how to flex their mental muscle, how to rise above fears, and how to reclaim their power. I received an advance copy of Jennifer Cassetta’s book and tore through it in record speed. A self-help book addict, I’ve read pretty much all of them, and in my opinion Jennifer’s is one of the best. By taking the skills she learned in the dojo to become a third-degree blackbelt and translating them into Confidence boosters you can use in your life, Jennifer bring the perfect mix of class, sass and bad-ass to women everywhere.

Helping Iranian Women from Canada, Check Your Breasts, How to Make Friends & Comeback Snacks

Fri, 30 Sep 2022 00:00:00 -0000

Iran is experiencing feminist led protests after the death of a 22 year old Mahsa Amini at the hands of the so-called Morality Police. Women in Canada want to help but it’s hard to know what we can do. Mehry Hadi, a Iranian-Canadian who has been fighting the regime from Canada for 24 years, joins me to share steps we can all take to ensure women’s voices are heard and change happens in Iran. It’s that time of year again, time to discuss the ta-tas, as Breast Cancer Awareness Month kicks off so Dr. Paula Gordon is here to share why all women should get to know their breasts, signs to be concerned about, and how to advocate for yourself. Anne Brodie is straight off of TIFF and exhausted but she still brings the entertainment goods this week with True Story, a comprehensive study of Indigenous history in Canada on The History Channel, Sigourney Weaver and Kevin Kline in The Good House, and the long awaited release of Hocus Pocus 2 starring Bette Midler, Kathy Njamy and Sarah Jessica Parker. Making friends as an adult is hard. Jessica Painter knows this first hand after moving to Canada and starting a new life here. The founder of In Her Circle, Jessica helps women find and keep new friendships and shares tips for those searching for a BFF. Everyone loves a good comeback story, but you’ll really love the story of Emily O’Brien who set out on a mission to transform herself and make her time in jail as meaningful as possible. Using her entrepreneurial pre-sentence background and experience, Emily O’Brien birthed the idea for Comeback Snacks—a popcorn brand that creates unique flavours inspired by the ones Emily developed in prison. Finally Willie Poll joins me to discuss her children’s book together we drum, our hearts beat as one which aims to brings awareness to the additional barriers Indigenous women and two spirit people face, as well as the epidemic of missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls, and two spirit people in Canada.

Forget Aging Gracefully, Try Living Agelessly on for Size

Thu, 29 Sep 2022 00:00:00 -0000

Aging as a woman is complex. Typically as we enter our 40s, and into our 50s and 60s, our confidence and general contentment soars, but on the flip side we struggle with physical changes that shouldn’t detract from our contributions or worthiness to society but often do. Case in point, Lisa LaFlamme. At the peak of her career, trusted by Canadians for decades as an exemplary newscaster, she was dumped by Bell Media apparently because she had the audacity to let her hair go grey. Then there’s the lies we tell ourselves, that we’re too old to change, or we can’t do something because we’re over the hill. Finally, we can’t forget the pressure we put on ourselves and others to stay young, or the pressure we put on women to allow themselves to age naturally as if Botox was the enemy. The complexity of this issue prompted this discussion with Jennifer John and Denise Chand from The Sacred Space Coaching about aging.

Does Freedom 55 Still Exist, Some Good Clean Fun, and Motherthing

Fri, 23 Sep 2022 00:00:00 -0000

Meridian Credit Union is back baby for a four part series on finances during different stages of women’s life. We kick things off today with Kerri Anderson, Senior Practice Management Coach with Meridian Credit Union and it’s all about retirement, and we’re asking the question, is Freedom 55 still a thing? Who’s up for some Good Clean Fun? Sarah Kate is a former wine-loving mom of two on a mission to help women rethink drinking and overcome the normalization of alcohol everywhere by inspiring them to find the fun in life, sans alcohol. Anne Brodie’s regular Saturday Night at the Movies is a little bit longer this week simply because there is so much new in entertainment we had to! We chat about Eternal Spring, Canada's submission for the 2023 Oscars in the Best International Feature Film category, A Jazzman’s Blues on Netflix, the much anticipated Blonde also on Netflix about Norma Jean Baker AKA Marilyn Monroe, a documentary on Apple TV about class act Sidney Poitier and finally a stunning series on TVO called Great Lakes Untamed. Lindsay Sealey, author of Made for More is back for the second in a series about Gen Z women and girls and we chat about the not good enough epidemic and how we can help our young women fight back against it. If you are drawn to horror when in comes to entertainment, either in documentaries, films, or books you’re not alone. Women are weirdly obsessed with horror. Author Ainslie Hogarth and I break that down plus we talk about her latest book, Motherthing, a darkly funny domestic horror novel about a woman who must take drastic measures to save her husband and herself from the vengeful ghost of her mother-in-law. Yes, it’s fiction. Finally, Anne Brodie is back with a interview with the incredible Tyler Perry who wrote and directed TIFF hit and Netflix release, A Jazzman’s Blue which follows an investigation into an unsolved murder unveiling a story full of forbidden love, deceit and a secret.

Fri, 16 Sep 2022 00:00:00 -0000

A new national survey conducted by the Canadian Women's Foundation, reveals the top challenges parents and caregivers believe their children, aged nine to 19, have faced over the past two years. Andrea Gunraj, Vice President of the Canadian Women’s Foundation joins me to the alarming results and how best we an address these issues with our kids and others in our community. Ever wonder about the SWAG celebs receive at TIFF? Wonder no more. Jessica Glover from Glo Communications joins me to share what A list celebrities will receive in their rooms from her annual TIFF event Bask-it Style, and perhaps may give you a little inspiration for something new in your life. Anne Brodie is here with new entertainment and this week we take a look at See how they run a British whodunit with a fund twist, TIFF gems Stellar and Something you said last night, and The Swearing Jar available in theatres now Not everyone enjoys budgeting, but in today’s financial climate it’s important to keeps tabs on your dollar bills so I’m re-airing an interview with Kelly Keehen, author of Rich Girl Broke Girl, who shares details about her anti-budget budget, and gives some advice to women looking to take control of their finances. When we look at successful people we often only see the tip of the iceberg, that 10% above the water but we fail to comprehend the other 90% below the surface that propelled them to the top. The proverbial blood, sweat, and tears. Julie Ellis, co-founder of Mabel’s Labels, takes a deep dive on what we don’t see in her new book Big Gorgeous Goals How Bold Women Achieve Great Things which includes stories from 16 female entrepreneurs who have founded great businesses and done amazing things. Finally, the spooky season is here until the end of October so it’s fitting that Anne Brodie is back for a second time this week with a interview with three of the stars from the Vampire Academy who share what’s it like to be undead in this new modern series available on W Network.

Defunding the Police, Education Hurdles, Living Agelessly and Telling Tales

Fri, 09 Sep 2022 00:00:00 -0000

We kick things off today with Samanta Krishnapillai from On Canada Project for a conversation about policing in Canada and what exactly it means when we talk about defunding the police. Spoiler, it doesn’t mean chaos on the streets. Samanta joins me to share what it would look like to allocate the funds differently so that everyone feels safe and protected. Now that school is back, I thought it would be a good time to connect with Dr. Prachi Srivastava for a check in. Specialising in education and global development, Prachi is a Visiting Professor at McGill University who looks at education systems around the globe and has thoughts on how we can do better. It’s mostly about TIFF this week with Anne Brodie for Saturday Night at the Movies and this week we take a look at the new documentary about the iconic David Bowie, the comedy-drama I Love Movies about a high school cinephile who gets a job at a Blockbuster knockoff in Brampton in the 80s, and Ever Deadly which focuses largely on Tanya Taqag’s throat singing but in intercut with the harsh and otherworldly environs of Nunavut where she grew up. Aging gracefully is so old-school. Here at What She Said we’re all about living agelessly. A timely topic given news of late, Denise Chand from The Sacred Space joins me to discuss letting go of our aging hang ups so we can live life on our terms. In today’s age where we our senses are under assault constantly by screens everywhere we look, there is nothing quite so therapeutic as curling up with a good book that doesn’t keep interrupting you with notifications and attention stealers. Susan Jasper from Telling Tales.org joins me to discuss how her festival and online space is connecting children and families with authors and illustrators to open minds and hearts for everyone. Finally, K Victoria, R&B/Pop/ Soul sensation, has the music industry sitting up and paying attention and after today’s show you will be too. She joins me to share the inspiration behind her newly released single “Visions-When I Think Of You”.

Fri, 02 Sep 2022 00:00:00 -0000

Kids are heading back to class and along with the world of forms and homework coming home with them in September, you can be certain a virus or two will accompany them at some point too. Aside from Covid, we still have the common cold and flu bugs to contend with so as part of What’s She Said’s ongoing partnership with New Roots Herbal, Angela Wallace is joining me to share which supplements you may want to consider adding into your daily routine. Pandemic stress has caused a surge in eating disorders particularly amongst adolescents and teens.

Lianne joins me with some advice for parents going through this with their children right now.

Anne says the every dollar is on full display in this incredible production you won’t want to miss. Plus we talk about Love in the Villa on Netflix and After the Verdict on Paramount Canada. Aly Pain, What She Said’s own teen whisperer is here with some sound advice and strategies for ensuring back to school success with your teens this year. Aly strives to always see both sides so that she can help teens and parents have a happier and healthier relationship. You’ll definitely want to stick around and listen. I keep things in the family this week by asking my first cousin Tanya Jessome to join us for Bladder Cancer Awareness month. Tanya was diagnosed with bladder cancer when she was 38 and has endured 46 chemotherapy treatments since then. Tanya shares what you need to watch for when it comes to the fifth most common cancer.

Fri, 26 Aug 2022 00:00:00 -0000

We start with Terri Lowe who wants us to chase a feeling rather than a number on the scale. A mom, wife, businesswoman and avid traveller Terri has made a complete change with her outlook on wellness and structured her life to have a positive outlook and can-do attitude. Since starting her wellness journey with WeightWatchers Terri has committed to helping others find the wellness habits that work for them. Lindsay Sealey joins me now for the first of five conversations about Gen Z women and girls. Author of Growing Strong Girls and Rooted, Resilient, and Ready, Lindsay’s latest book Made for More is the inspiration young women need now to consider then create what “more” can mean to them while learning to let go of what they no longer need. Today we look at why Gen Z is so different than prior generations. Anne Brodie joins me for entertainment and the big release this week is 3000 Years of Longing which is a fantastical story about a genie in a bottle starring Tilda Swinton and Idris Elba. Javier Bardem brings the performance of his life to The Good Boss. On Netflix Arden Cho deals with racism and sexism as she climbs to corporate ladder in the new series Partner Track.

Hope Beyond Hurt, Careering, Limonata & Magnesium 101

Fri, 19 Aug 2022 00:00:00 -0000

As part of What She Said’s ongoing partnership with New Roots Herbal, we’re going to take a closer look at magnesium which has a hand in over 300 systems in our bodies that regulate everything from muscle and nerve function to blood pressure. Dr Katie DeGroot, an Alberta-registered Naturopathic Doctor joins me to share the what, why, and how of magnesium so we’re all better informed about this crucial mineral we all need. If you’ve had a swab up your nose to test for covid, then you’ll rejoice to know that testing is about to get a whole lot less invasive. The new Sal6830 is the only saliva-based PCR test authorized by Health Canada and it’s available now. John Andonoff, General Manager of Songbird Life Science joins me to share more about this new way of testing. Anne Brodie brings the goods this week for Saturday night at the movies. We start with The Territory, a shocking documentary about a tribe in Brazil facing genocide at the hands of land grabbers determined to drive them out. From there we move to Get Away if You Can with Ed Harris, and then to Bad Sisters which is now Anne’s new favourite series available on Apple TV+. Listen in and then pop on over to whatshesaidtalk.com for the full roundup of new entertainment. Childhood trauma can have far reaching effects into adult lives. No one knows this better than Teresa Rilling who was horrifically abused by her grandfather from the age of 2 to 10. Teresa made a decision to take control of the narrative of her own story and now offers hope beyond hurt to others grappling with their own trauma. She joins me to discuss and believe me when I say, you’ll be inspired by Teresa’s message. Working in 2022 definitely has it’s challenges which is why Daisy Buchanan’s new book Careering is so timely. Hilarious and unflinchingly honest, Careering takes a hard look at the often toxic relationship working women have with their dream jobs. Daisy joins me to discuss the inspiration behind the novel and why we need to break our addictions to our jobs. Finally, summer is isn’t over yet so we’re closing out the show with Canadian singer/songwriter Dia who pops in to share her new song Limonata, a fun and sexy single for the summer about loving and living life to the fullest.

Sex Work is Work, Happily Ever After, Task Force Nyx & TikTok for Biz

Thu, 11 Aug 2022 00:00:00 -0000

The On Canada Project intentionally disrupts social conversations by bridging information gaps and using a compassionate tone that calls people into conversations, rather than calling people out. Over the next five months Samanta will be joining me to discuss some hard topics that bring in hard facts and data so that we can all have more informed opinions. In this episode we’re tackling the topic of sex workers. Jenny Pool is the owner of Happily Ever After Books, Canada’s first romance-exclusive bookstore. Of course we could all use some more love and romance in our lives so Jenny shares why this genre of literature is so important and how you can always get your fill from her online store or pop-ups. Anne Brodie is here with her Saturday Night at the Movies roundup which includes a look at The Princess on Crave that looks at the sad saga of Lady Diana Spencer’s entry and exit from The Royal Family, Emergency Declaration a anxiety inducing film which combines a deadly virus on board a plane that no one will let land, Five Days at Memorial on Apple TV+ looks at the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina on a New Orleans Hospital, and the fun and lighthearted A League of Their Own is available now on Prime Video. Last year the world watched in horror as desperate Afghanistans tried to escape Taliban rule when US and NATO forces pulled out but Laura Deitz and Sara Gilliam sprung into action forming the NGO, Task Force Nyx to help. Task Force Nyx fights for the futures and freedoms of all Afghan women and girls by amplifying the voices of Afghan women’s rights leaders and providing emergency humanitarian support to the most at-risk activists and their families. Laura and Sara joins me to discuss. Ask any new parent what they want the most and they’ll likely reply with sleep. Astrid Loch and Kevin Wendt are no exception. Since appearing on the bachelor, the couple has put down roots in Toronto, got engaged, added two pups to their family and welcomed their first child Auggie in November of 2021. They join me today to discuss how they are all getting some much needed rest with the Owlet Baby Monitor. Finally, if you haven’t embraced TikTok for your small business marketing needs, what are you waiting for? Wave Wyld is a TikTok Marketing & Trends Expert. She has helped over 400 clients grow their TikTok accounts through consulting and courses with a community over virality approach and joins me today to share why you shouldn’t miss out on this powerful tool.

Nursing in Crisis, Self-Worth Check Up, Go To Grandma and When to Quit Your Job

Sat, 06 Aug 2022 00:00:00 -0000

Canada’s health care system is in crisis, particularly when it comes to nursing. The Registered Practical Nurses Association of Ontario (WeRPN), representing the voices of over 55,000 registered practical nurses (RPNs), is raising the alarm after a new survey has found patient care is being critically compromised due to staffing shortages and the standardization of unsafe workloads. Dianne Martin, CEO of WeRPN joins me to discuss. When’s the last time you had a self-worth check up? Jennifer John from the Sacred Space thinks this is is a check up we should do as routinely as we see our family doctor or therapist. A great way to stop self-sabotaging and move yourself out of a rut, a self-worth check up is easy to do and well worth the reward. Jennifer shares how in today’s interview. Anne Brodie is here with entertainment, and you will absolutely not want to miss Ron Howard’s Thirteen Lives that takes us inside the harrowing story of thirteen soccer players and their coach trapped underground in a cave in Thailand in 2018 and the incredible rescue that followed. Plus she has Prey on Disney+ which is the origin story for Predator, and the formulaic but charming Wedding Season on Netflix. Grandparents in 2022 are not your regular grandparents, they’re cool grandparents. Kathy Buckworth has moved from parenting expert to grand parenting expert with her show Go To Grandma that explores different aspects of being a modern grandparent from respecting your kids’ way of parenting to finding yourself once you have an empty nest. If there is one thing the pandemic has made crystal clear to people is that life is too short to be in a job you’re not happy at. How do you know when you should choose your mental health over you job? Roxanne Francis is here to help. A trained psychotherapist with more than 12 years of experience in the mental health field, Roxanne joins me to discuss what you should be looking for. Finally, Anne Brodie closes out the show with an interview with renowned and beloved British actorJim Broadbent. Broadbent stars in Roger Michell's The Duke, the true - and highly entertaining story of disabled old age pensioner Kempton Bunton who, in 1961, stole Francisco Goya's portrait of The Duke of Wellington from the National Gallery in London and held it ransom as a political statement. Anne speaks with Broadbent from his home in England.

Women in Politics, The Feminine Warrior, Staying Healthy on Holidays and Climate Optimism

Fri, 29 Jul 2022 00:00:00 -0000

More than ever we need more women in politics and not just at the highest levels. Local politics have a huge impact on policy, not to mention they inspire at a grass roots level. That’s why I’m so happy to have Megan Hanson, Mayor of Sylvan Lake, Alberta join me today to discuss her public service journey that started at 13! Megan shares her thoughts on women in politics, what she’s currently working on, and what the future may hold. Aging as a woman can present unique challenges. Helen Tansey co hosts a podcast with Dianne Wiseman called The Feminine Warrior all about women embracing themselves as they age, stepping away from the patriarch and finding their own truth and living life fully. She joins me to discuss. Anne Brodie is here for Saturday Night at the Movies and I’m not sure Anne had time to leave her couch this week with so many new shows and movies to share. Of course, how could we not discuss Canadian legend Shania Twain’s new documentary on Netflix called Not Just a Girl, but also Love Song available in select theatres, plus an homage to another Canadian legend Allen Funt called Mr. Candid Camera. If you’re like me and often let all your hard work at staying healthy slide when you’re on holidays then you’ll want to stick around for my interview with Emily Bjerkness, a Weight Watchers Workshop Coach who after 14 years of being a WW member, finally committed to healthy habits no matter where she might find her herself. Emily shares how a mindset shift makes it all possible to go away, enjoy all the good things in life and maintain your health. The threat of climate change is bearing down on us hard right now, and it can often feel overwhelming. Olivia Ulrich from Carbon Block, an environmental technology firm working to spread climate change awareness joins me to share how she is an advocate for climate optimism, helps spur people to action by moving them out of their comfort zone, and encourages women to to get into the climate tech industry as a career. Finally, Allison Venditti from Moms at Work stops in to share the new tool they’ve developed to help small businesses with no HR department navigate the laws in and around parental leave. Aptly name, “My Parental Leave”, this tool was built in conjunction with employment lawyers, human resource experts, and of course parents and is available at a price small businesses can afford.

Home Ownership Hurdles, Groundtruthing, Eating Healthy for Less, and Eco Tips

Fri, 22 Jul 2022 00:00:00 -0000

The housing market has been nothing short of a hot mess lately and many potential buyers feel they may be shut out completely. Mai Kadeer from Loans Canada has some advice. Mai is dedicated to sharing educational pieces that makes financial knowledge and debt management accessible to all, especially for millennials and Gen Z. She joins me to discuss the current housing market and some options for potential buyers looking to get into their own home. Tanya Hayles is an award-winning creative, who has built movements through her online global village of almost 30,000 at Black Moms Connection, she makes DEI work real and relatable through her firm Color In White Spaces and she is thought leader on Black motherhood, recently doing a TedxToronto talk on the very subject. She joins me today to discuss the good, bad, and ugly of social media. It’s a bit of a slow week in entertainment but leave it to Anne Brodie to pull out the gems for us including Fire of Love which tells the story of husband and wife volcanologists Katia and Maurice Krafft whose love couldn't have been more Shakespearan. From one form of nature to another, Sharkfest is back for its 10th season, and our collective obsession with sharks continues, and finally Ethan Hawke has a six part documentary called The Last Movie Stars which takes a close look at Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward. Travelling Solo as a woman can be scary, which is why Carolyn Ray is joining me for this show to help you tackle your fears and do a little “groundtruthing” in a destination. Carolyn just returned from 4 months in Mexico and shares what she learned while on the ground there. The squeeze continues at the grocery store and most Canadians are looking for creative ways to feed the family while not breaking the bank. Andrea Buckett is known for sharing practical cooking tips and kitchen prowess along with easy recipes with dynamite flavour to help combat mealtime boredom. She is here today to share some of her best tips. Finally, with heat temperatures being set around the globe right now, I thought it might be a good time to re-air an interview with Tara McKenna from The Zero Waste Collective. Tara’s book DON’T BE TRASHY, takes readers through reducing your waste month by month, which includes a No Buy Month, an #OutfitRepeater Month devoted to developing a sustainable capsule wardrobe, and a month devoted to decluttering and minimalism at home.

Helping Post Roe V Wade, Surviving St. Michael's, and the Best Ontario Hiking Spots

Sat, 09 Jul 2022 00:00:00 -0000

We all knew it was coming but it didn’t soften the blow any when Roe V Wade was overturned in the US last week. Women across Canada, myself included, turned to social media to voice their concern and support for American women. Social media however is not enough. Our support must be followed by action which is why I asked Samanta Krishnapalli from On Canada Project to join me for today’s show to share what we can do beyond the hashtag. Anne Brodie is here with entertainment and this week we start with a look at two shows that will appeal to those that picked up gardening and baking during the pandemic. Gardener’s World and The Great British Baking Show will help you hone your skills with real tips you can use. Anne also shares her thoughts on Neptune Frost, an "Afrofuturist sci-fi musical" produced by bad boy Ezra Miller and Lin-Manuel Miranda, and Apples, the feature debut of Greek director Christos Nikou, plus much more over on whatshesaidtalk.com. Last May, Connie Walker came upon a story about her late father she’d never heard before. One night back in the late 1970s while he was working as an officer in the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, he pulled over a suspected drunk driver. He walked up to the vehicle and came face-to-face with a ghost from his past—a residential school priest. From there Connie took a deep dive into her past and has now released, “Stolen: Surviving St. Michaels,” a Spotify Original Podcast Connie that unearths how her family’s story fits into one of Canada’s darkest chapters: the residential school system. In March of 2020 travel writer Lauren Yakiwchuk found herself at home with a lot of time on her hands and decided to start hiking in Ontario. She then started a website called Ontario Hiking where she hosts quarterly hiking challenges, group hiking trips, and she has amassed a whopping 86,000 members in her Facebook community. Lauren joins me now to share five hiking spots you need to explore in Ontario this summer. Finally money matters are on everyone’s mind these days, and we are inundated with advice which often makes it even more overwhelming. Stephanie Chabot from the Finance Diaries helps keep things simple for her followers. Stephanie helps make finance topics less scary by openly discussing them, sharing mistakes, and providing easy steps that anyone can follow to reach their financial goals.

Accessing Safe Abortion Care in Canada, Year of Saying No, Sustainable Travel and Bite the Rainbow

Sat, 25 Jun 2022 00:00:00 -0000

If there is one positive that has come about as a result of Roe V Wade in the US, it’s that it’s opened up broader discussions about women’s reproductive health here in Canada. The reality is that 1 in 3 women will have an abortion in their lifetime. Unfortunately many women do not understand the options available to them when it comes to abortion, and more crucially, they don’t always have easy access. Marion Ulmann, General Manager and Director of Linepharma International joins me to discuss recent findings from a Leger survey and what Canadian women need to know about accessing safe abortions in Canada. You can’t be what you can’t see, which is why I’m so grateful that Farah Nasser joins me this week to discuss her new role as weekend anchor with Global National. Farah shares why remaining true to yourself is crucial, why talking about mental health openly is so important, and why this is her year of saying No, thank you very much. It’s feast or famine in the entertainment industry and this week, it’s definitely feast with so much new in entertainment, we simply can’t get to it all, so be sure to jump on over to whatshesaidtalk.com after today’s episode to catch them all but first listen to Anne Brodie’s thoughts on The Man from Toronto starring Woody Harrelson and Kevin Hart, Official Competition with Antonio Banderas, and Penelope Cruz, plus you won’t want to miss Endangered from Ronan Farrow on HBO that takes a closer look at anti-journalistic sentiment from both governments and citizens, in nations where freedom of the press was once taken for granted. Would be travellers are a lot more mindful of their environmental impact and after two years to think about it they are looking to do things differently. Thankfully Intrepid Travel has answered the call. Dr. Susanne Etti, Global Environmental Impact Manager of Intrepid Travel joins me to discuss what it looks like to be BCorp travel provider, how they are continuously looking for ways to reduce their carbon footprint, and why travel can help local economies without harming it. Finally a little positivity to close the show this week. Ana Pac is here to share her new single Bite the Rainbow, empowering song about shattering the boxes societal norms put us in. Ana shares what inspired her to write the song before we turn the volume up and dance our little hearts out to celebrate pride month.

Miami Nice - Listen to this Before you Visit Greater Miami!

Thu, 23 Jun 2022 00:00:00 -0000

Before a recent visit to Miami, I had expectations of fast cars, hard bodies, and high fashion, it felt like a style over substance destination to me and to be honest it carried a bit of a intimidation factor as well. But while style is definitely front and centre in Miami, it’s loaded with substance too. Greater Miami is rich in culture, experiences, and nature. I knew I wasn’t the only one surprised to find so much to see and do in MIami, so I invited two of the travel writers I spent the week with in MIami to help me break it down. Karen Doradea has a job we’d all kill for. As the restaurant reviewer for The Daily Hive, Karen spends her time testing the best restaurants in Toronto and around the globe. Rosie Fitzgerald, is the special features editor at the award-winning travel magazine Wanderlust in the United Kingdom. She is also co-host with Lyn Hughes of Wanderlust’s Off the Page podcast. Over the next half hour, we break down what surprised us in Miami, what we loved the most, and hatched a plan for a reunion. If you’re planning a trip to Miami, pack away your preconceived notions for this podcast and be sure to take note of the incredible things to see and do in Greater Miami.

Sat, 18 Jun 2022 00:00:00 -0000

It’s Father’s Day Weekend, and it’s a good time to not only let your Dad know how much you love him, but to check in on his mental health. According to the Mental Health Commission of Canada, 75% of all suicides are men and 66% of men believe that mental health is worse than it has ever been. Bryan Baeumler, HGTV celebrity and Dad, was a guest speaker this week at the 5th Father’s Day on the Hill which aims to raise awareness about men’s mental health. Bryan joins me to discuss his own struggles with mental health and why it’s so important that we bring this conversation into the light. Anne Brodie has a slew of new releases for entertainment this week which includes Disney and Pixar’s Lightyear, the story of Buzz Lightyear and his adventures to infinity and beyond. The Phantom of the Open about the true story of Maurice Flitcroft, the worst professional golf player ever with the biggest heart. Season 3 of The Umbrella Academy returns on Netflix, and Jeff Bridges turns in a stellar performance in The Old Man on FX. I struggle with eco-guilt almost daily as I do my best to make smarter purchasing decisions. That’s why I’m so thrilled to share Catherine Marot’s business CASE with you. Catherine saw an opportunity for us to all do better with black plastic takeout containers which most municipalities don’t recycle. Catherine joins me to share how her business works and how you can get involved through your business. Radio is having a bit of a metoo moment after Jennifer Valentyne’s recent revelations about her experience. That moment of bravery opened the door for others to share their stories including my guest Laura Mainella, a dynamic, controversial, and opinionated voice in daytime radio. Laura joins me to discuss how now is the time for a #RadioReboot Finally, family travel can have it’s challenges but it’s worth the memories you create no matter how near or far your travels take you. Claudia LaRoye writes about adventure, family, wellness and sustainable travel and is set to release her travel anthology, 'A Gelato a Day’ which highlights family travel stories from traveling with toddlers to elderly parents and the incredible moments that only could have come about through travel.

Sat, 11 Jun 2022 00:00:00 -0000

We’re half way through our one year masterclass on moving out of a rut and Jennifer John from The Sacred Space Coaching is here to help us identify ways to empower ourselves so that we can effectively move on for good from self-sabotaging behaviour. Jennifer shares some classic ways we self-sabotage but also how to nix those old habits with a few simple shifts. Who had Monkeypox on their 2022 bingo card? It’s another health concern that seems to be growing so I reached out to Dr. Dina Kulik who is always a calm and measured voice. Dr. Dina shares the symptoms we should be on the lookout for, what to do if we suspect Monkeypox, and how to protect ourselves. As always Anne Brodie is here with entertainment and this week we take a look the new Netflix documentary Halftime about Jennifer Lopez, the incredible Martin Freeman in the Responder available on BritBox now, and the emotional thriller Madeline Collins available in select theatres now which takes an eerie look at deception. Kegel or kegel. It’s possible I butchered that word in my interview with The Vagina Coach herself, Kim Vopni. No matter how you say it, all women know what it is, but do you know the importance of doing them. As we approach World Continence Week, Kim joins me today to discuss the importance of kegels and of keeping ourselves informed because we do not have to deal with incontinence just because we’re getting older. Dr. Prachi Srivastava who has been joining me for the past six months to discuss the state of education in Ontario, joins me to share what we’re likely looking at now that Doug Ford’s Conservative Government will be leading the way for the next four years. Finally your search for your next great beach read is over. Author Nancy Mauro joins me to discuss her latest book The Sugar Thief, about a secret pastry recipe that turns a family upside down.

Andrea Gunraj from the Canadian Women's Foundation joins me to share details from a survey they did that shows that just over two years into the pandemic, almost half of mothers are at their breaking point and 2 in 5 mothers have had to put their career on the back burner. Overworked, overwhelmed, and undervalued; mental health is suffering; and the pandemic’s burdens are even greater for those experiencing poverty, discrimination, and gender-based violence.

We are less then a month away from the Ontario election, and all the parties have released their platforms including their plans for education. Dr. Prachi Srivastava joins me to take a look at each platform, and to highlight a few proposals of note including a return of Grade 13 from the Ontario Liberals and how that could help a lot of kids who fell behind during Covid. Canada's beloved The Kids in the Hall "return from the dead", 27 years after their TV series ended to kill us with laughter once again! Dave Foley, Bruce McCulloch, Kevin McDonald, Mark McKinney, and Scott Thompson star in a revival launching this week and Anne Brodie has an interview with them! Finally, Apryll Aileen wrote her latest song Eazy Love while in London, England, caught up in a misleading, whirlwind romance and then ghosted. She quickly realized a common theme while traveling and pursuing her dreams: listen closely to what people say, but more importantly, watch their actions, because people can tell you exactly what you want to hear, but it’s not necessarily the truth. She joins me to discuss and to share the new song in its entirety.

Neurodivergency In Women & and at Work

Fri, 13 May 2022 00:00:00 -0000

There is a joke in here somewhere I’m sure that the longest podcast I’ve ever recorded focuses largely on ADHD. The topic of neurodiversity however seems to be everywhere these days. Certainly amongst my peer group, I’ve seen many share recent diagnoses of ADHD and if you’re on TikTok, the explainer videos are as ubiqutous as the dancing. Listening and reading about how neurodiversity has impacted so many lives, prompted me to start learning more. Enter Nadine Araksi, one of my peers who was diagnosed in her 40s with ADHD and wrote an article for Canadian Business about supporting neurodivergency in the workplace. Together with Christina Crowe from Dig A Little Deeper we spend the next hour discussing how ADHD can present different for women, how adult diagnoses can be a game changer, and how businesses can benefit from employing a neurodiverse workforce. There’s a lot of great information in this one, and you may even find yourself having a few lightbulb moments like I did. Meet Nadine Araksi and Christina Crowe.

Identifying Self-Sabotage, Miami Nice, Emotional Flatlining and Green Pavement

Sat, 07 May 2022 00:00:00 -0000

I’m joined by Denise Chand from The Sacred Space Coaching who is here for the fifth in a 12 part series on getting out of a rut and living the life you want. Today Denise walks through some of the things that hold us back in life, how to stop undermining our own success, and how to identify self-sabotage so we can stop it in its tracks. Anne Brodie is in for a twofer again this week. First we take a look at what’s new in entertainment which includes a look at Petite Maman, a darling from TIFF this year, The Takedown on Netflix, the second season of Gentleman Jack on Crave, and Peacock’s comedy series Killing it! Also up later in the show is Anne’s interview with Into the Weeds Filmmaker Jennifer Baichwal which tells the powerful story of Dewayned Lee Johnson who took on corporate giant Bayer. Earth Month may be over but we’re going to keep sharing businesses that are trying to affect real change and not just greenwash for profit. Lauren Barnes has cofounded Last20 Pavement with her older brother Lucas. A social enterprise that upcycles plastic waste into sustainable pavement, Last20 might just be the solution we need to clear up plastic bag waste. Lauren joins me to share. Here comes the sun with Karen Doradea from The DailyHive who joins me to breakdown a recent trip to Miami that highlighted the stellar culinary scene there as well as a surprising number of outdoor activities that get travelers in touch with nature. Always changing and adapting, Miami is the perfect destination for sun-starved Canadians to escape to right now. Finally, the incredible Kelly Bos joins me to discuss emotional flatlining, something many are seeking but why we should avoid it at all costs. Kelly always has great advice for those looking to keep their mental health in check in today’s chaotic world.

Sat, 23 Apr 2022 00:00:00 -0000

If you have ever caught yourself repeating the exact things to your child that your parents said to you, you’ll appreciate my first interview today with Aly Pain, What She Said’s expert on all things teen related. Aly joins me today to discuss generational parenting patterns and how to perhaps break free of what’s not working for you or your teens. Always the voice of reason, Aly shows up with great advice and insights today. Plastic toys are a major polluter, not to mention they can sometimes pose a health risk. Monika Nowaczyk, is the CEO of Beebee & Bongo a social enterprise that believes in the power of humour and play to create connection. At all stages from design to production, to sales and marketing and beyond,Beebee & Bongo aims for a triple bottom line: people, planet, and profits. Monika joins me to share the story behind the brand. Anne Brodie’s regular segment is not happening this week but only because Anne has an interview with megastars Paul Bettany and Claire Foy who star in Amazon Prime’s A Very British Scandal based on the true story on the Duke & Duchess of Argyll scandal of the 1960s. Never fear though, Anne has her regular round up of new movies and TV series up on whatshesaidtalk.com Julie Cole joins me to share what it was like to write her new book LIke a Mother about her time building Mabels Labels, a multimillion-dollar business with her co-founders between their children’s naptimes and playdates. A constant source of inspiration and raw honesty, Julie is always a delight to have on the show. Divorce is hard, but separation can be harder. Sunnie McFadden knows from first hand experience and set out to produce a documentary about it. Broken Vows i pulls viewers into the lives of the women and children surviving through separation, and asks the question when a marriage ends, where do you begin? Committed to providing help, Sunnie has also produced a six-volume digital “companion resource” to the film, which offers real resources to help women move forward upon separation. She joins me to discuss. Finally, Victoria West used her own life experiences from childhood to present day with descriptions of love, family, loss, grief, disillusionment, immigration and and more to create beauty in words in a collection of poems called Sunset in Toronto available now.

Broken Vows: Stories of Separation

Fri, 22 Apr 2022 00:00:00 -0000

Divorce is hard, but separation, as I and many many others have come to realize, can be harder. The physiological and psychological impact can be profound even in the most amicable of separations, throw in some conflict though and the devastation can be off the charts. In the coming years we will no doubt see an escalation in high conflict separations as courts struggle to keep up with what is expected to be a tidal wave of divorce filings as the world opens up again. The cascading effect of all this of course spills out into our society and the consequences are almost immeasurable. My next guest is committed to helping. Sunnie McFadden-Curtis spent over four years filming her documentary Broken Vows: Stories of Separation that began with a simple question, When a marriage ends, where do you begin? Well for now, how about right here. If you’re marriage is coming to a close, or if you’re stuck in separation limbo, then this is a podcast you won’t want to miss. Meet Sunnie McFadden Curtis.

Federal Budget Through a Feminist Lens, Reducing Your Carbon Footprint, and Education Inequity

Sat, 16 Apr 2022 00:00:00 -0000

The Federal Budget dropped last week, and of course, it wouldn’t be What She Said if we didn’t take a closer look at it to see how it impacts women. Ann Decter, Senior Director, Community Initiatives and Policy, at the Canadian Women’s Foundation joins me now to break down the budget through a feminist lens and shares the highs and lows of a budget that had a lot of ground to cover this year. If you’re like most, you’re giving a lot of consideration to your carbon footprint. Thankfully, there is a company that is literally looking at your footprint. Natalie Ashdown from Evoco joins me to share how her company is looking to close the loop on unsustainable goods for good by creating plant based products that lead with performance. We take a closer look at Evoco FATES that is providing plant based insoles for the shoe industry. I worry Anne Brodie might be in a catatonic state soon with all the new movies and shows she’s watching recently. There appears to be a bit of a boon in entertainment. This week Anne brings the goods on All My Puny Sorrows in theatres now, Outer Range on Prime Video, The First Lady debuting this week on Crave and starring incredible actresses Viola Davis, Michelle Pfeiffer and Gillian Anderson and a look at the female-centric mind-bending 8 part anthology series Roar on Apple TV+ from executive producer Nicole Kidman. The divide between the haves and the have nots plays out in our education system daily, and perhaps nowhere more than with the social networking and connections angles that play out in our schools. Dr. Prachi Srivastva joins me to share why this happens and how we can take steps to ensure that we are closing the gap on inequities, not creating them. TikTok can bring small businesses explosive growth, as Haley Lafontaine, owner of Oak & Willow recently found out. A small business in Northern Ontario that makes and sells eco-friendly household products and cleaners, Oak & Willow moved from a small business to a million dollar business over night and that hasn’t happened without some hiccups to attend to. Haley joins me to share what the journey has been like. Finally, Frances Anne Solomon, a trailblazer in the flim and television industry joins me to discuss her new film Hero about Ulric Cross, the new Content Creator Database created to enhance the visibility of Women of Colour in the film industry, and Black Market Releasing which aims to connect BIPOC stories to the big screen.

There’s a game changer when it comes to composting and it’s called Tero. A small appliance that transforms food waste into a ready-to-use fertilizer, in just a few hours, odorless and noise-free, the Tero is the brainchild of Elizabeth Coulombe and Valérie Laliberté. This little machine is poised to do big things for the earth, all while looking stylish in your kitchen. Elizabeth joins me to share more about this incredible innovation. My friend Erica Ehm is back with an update on her latest venture the inside out initiative. This life changing program is helping today’s youth find their spark again so they can chase the things that light them up. Always a joy to have on the show Erica shares how she used her daughter Jessie as a bit of an experiment to put into action what the inside out program teaches and how you can get involved with your own kids.

Social Justice, Advocacy, and Making A Living

Wed, 06 Apr 2022 00:00:00 -0000

From the early days of the pandemic, one thing was crystal clear; women and marginalized communities were being disproportionately affected. It was disheartening to see the loss of income, education, and advancement. But there was a bright spot, because women did what women do best - they pulled together, they got loud, and they demanded change. Support and advocacy groups popped up, feminism had fresh life pumped into it, and words like diversity, equity, and inclusion became part of our daily lexicon. Some women, like my two featured guests in this podcast, turned their advocacy into businesses. Allison Venditti from Moms at Work and Janelle Benjamin from All Things Equitable are leading the charge into our post-pandemic recovery and are joining me today to share their journeys and struggles. Joining me from RBC to share insights and advice are Erin Closs, VP of Commercial Banking and Erin Rennie-Aubuchon, Manager Business Markets.

How Do Supplements Work, Carbon Neutral Packaging, Water Holidays and Water First

Sat, 02 Apr 2022 00:00:00 -0000

Andrea Donsky joins me on behalf of New Roots Herbal. Canadians love their supplements spending nearly $80 million dollars every quarter on them, but many of us have no idea how they work once we swallow them. Andrea lays out all the ways you can get your supplements from orally to topically, and how they break down in your body. Sarah Landstreet retired from engineering at the ripe old age of 23 and started a bakery in Northern Ireland to teach herself about business. She then enrolled at the Ivey Business School to complete her MBA before starting Georgette Packaging, a carbon neutral packaging company she runs today. Sarah joins me to share how she’s shaking things up in her industry. Anne Brodie brought the goods this week with so many amazing movies and shows newly released we couldn’t get to them all. What I can tell you is that you won’t want to miss Slow Horses with Gary Oldman or Life & Beth with Amy Schumer on Disney+ but you’ll have to stick around for the rest because what a week! Summer is just around the corner and thoughts are turning to summer holidays but not too far from home please. Some of us just aren’t ready for that leap yet. Thankfully Le Boat Vacations offers luxury houseboat holidays for around the price of a summer cottage rental. Lisa McLean. Marketing Manager for Le Boat in North America which is based on the UNESCO World Heritage Rideau Canal joins me to share details on this unforgettable summer vacay. Since 2009, Water First has collaborated with over 50 Indigenous communities in Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, and Labrador on a variety of water education and training projects.

She joins me to share her experience working with Water First. Finally Elke Rubach from Rubach Wealth joins me to discuss planning for retirement around the income gap, which is admittedly something I hadn’t thought of before.

Kristina Lao and Raquelle Roodenburg from Bombshell Brunches, a community where women can access real people doing big things, making changes in their lives and taking strides in this complex world. Real, raw, and funny, these ladies keep it real. Strong believers in representation, social impact, and internal revolution, they LIVE to highlight, normalize and glamourize the many different ways to live a brave and full life. Anne Brodie is here for a twofer again this week. First she joins me to share an abundance of new entertainment which includes a new series about Julia Child’s who blazed a trail for us all. Anne thinks tweenagers will rejoice with the return of Bridgerton on Netflix but I had to let her know that some of us older ladies are pretty happy about it too. Plus she doesn’t want us to miss out on Lizzo’s new Prime Video Series called Watch Out for the Big Grrrrrrls. Later on in the show, Anne comes back with an interview with HGTV Canada's renovation reality series star siblings Carolyn Wilbrink and Billy Pearson as they look under the floorboards and behind the walls with their spirit of design, redesign, and renewal and nail it every time on their series Farmhouse Facelift. If you’ve been thinking about starting to run, now is the time says Christine Blanchette. The creator, producer, and host of Canada’s only running, fitness and health show, Run With It, Christine joins me with some tips for getting off the couch, the gear you need, and why now is the best time to hit the pavement. To sleep perchance to dream, is something we all chase after but in these highly stressful times, sleep, especially a good sleep can be elusive. Adelina Doppler is the forward-thinking CEO behind Winkzzz, a Canadian-owned pillow, sleep, and wellness technology company who joins me now to share how Winkzzz is changing the way we rest our heads each night from copper infused pillows to mulberry silk covers, Winkzzz customizes your pillow based on an individual’s sleep habits. Silver linings can be hard to find when trauma happens in our lives which is why Bernadette Erb is so inspiring. Bernadette suffered physical abuse in her home as a child, sexual abuse as a child and teen, and later in life received not one, but two cancer diagnoses. And yet, Bernadette says that each of those events forced her to find the Silver Linings. She joins me to discuss her new book available now.

Closing the Gender Wage Gap, Ageism, Financing Education, and Untying the Knot

Sat, 19 Mar 2022 00:00:00 -0000

Commissioner Kadie Ward joins me for the third installment of Level The Paying Field. Today we jump into the gender wage gap and how to close it for good. As usual, Kadie comes to the conversation armed with information you need to know so you can advocate for yourself. Ageism is something we’re not talking about enough, especially when it comes to women in the workforce. Incredibly, in all of the discussions, webinars, research, white papers, and thought pieces that have been written about a ‘she-covery’ from the devastating impacts of COVID, not one piece, not one call to action, has identified the difficulties that women in this age group experience or will face. Karen Schulman Dupuis is a shift disturber on a mission to make this “invisible” group of women, highly visible to policy makers and joins me to today to discuss. Anne Brodie has new entertainment with the disturbing Alice starring Keke Palmer, the absolutely bizarre life imitating art imitating life movie about the Tiger King and Carole Baskins on Showcase, We Crashed on Apple TV starring Jared Leto and Anne Hathaway, and the amazing Ava Duvernay’s now movie DMZ with Rosario Dawson on Crave. Dr. Prachi Srivastava is back to continue our discussion on the education system. This week we take a closer look at financing education and what it will take to get kids back on track. Incredibly, Prachi shares that the government is underspending even when the dollars are there for them to disburse, plus she shares what the government needs to do to get kids caught up. Jenelle Simpson, a senior law clerk, paralegal, motivational speaker, and life coach in Toronto joins me to share details on her first book, Commitment to a Deceitful Liar that offers a peek into her life, from being raised in a West Indian home with all its beliefs and myths to unlearning instilled toxic generational cycles and relearning how to move to new levels Finally, Kelly Lavallie wants to save you money in your divorce.

The last couple of years have been filled with anger and divisiveness on just about everything in our society and it’s wearing us all down. In an attempt to turn things around and build community, Catherine Dunphy is asking people to look for the good all around them and #amplifykindness on social media whenever you see somebody being kind or alternatively when you do something kind. By shifting our focus to the helping instead of hurting, we can move together towards a brighter future. Denise Chand from The Sacred Space joins me for the third instalment on getting your life unstuck. In this week’s interview we take a closer look at taking a closer look at ourselves. From processing disappointment to assessing our thoughts and behaviours, Denise shares why the biggest key to getting unstuck starts with Betrayal, believe it or not, can be an opportunity and Stéphanie Rourke Jackson, founder of Beacon Coaching &Leadership is joining me today to discuss how.

Anne Brodie has distractions galore with entertainment this week, and once again she joins us twice this week. Her regular Saturday night at the movies takes a look at yet another Batman iteration, as well as Dawn, Her Dad & the Tractor a timely film about a trans woman and the importance of allies. She joins us later in the show with a interview with Canadian actress Jennifer Spence who plays Kathy Torrance in BritBox’s Forensic Series Traces. Just as we’re all starting to feel like we couldn’t possibly take another thing on our already full plates, tax season has arrived. Susan Watkin from TurboTax joins me today to share what we should be looking out for as we file this year, and how to get the most out of our returns. I love having Susan on the show, as she takes the fear of taxes away with sound advice. Divorce in Canada is messy. Courts are overburdened and delays can cause everything from tension to rise between ex partners to devastating financial outcomes and sadly, even loss of life. Sarah Lawrynuik from CanadaLand joins me to share details on four cases she highlighted on a recent podcast, including a story from yours truly. If you’re heading into family court, you will definitely want to hear this one. Finally Raeann Browne joins me to discuss her beautiful new book for children depicting the transformative dreams envisioned by a young Inuk girl with the help of her loving mother. A first time author from Newfoundland, Raeann joins me to discuss the importance of indigenous literature for children.

Gender Bias, Entrepreneurship, and the Power of Networking

Mon, 21 Feb 2022 00:00:00 -0000

If there is one thing that most female entrepreneurs can agree on its that your network truly is your net worth when it comes to forging a successful path in business. And while it’s not always the case, that network is primarily comprised of other women because we get it. We understand gender bias and other struggles that only women face when it comes to entrepreneurship. When covid struck, many of us were cut off from our networks and that innate need for social interaction and camaraderie went untapped, that is until Strike Up Canada launched. The little tiny online conference that could, was only meant to reach a provincial audience but ended up attracting 3000 women around the globe in its first year, fulfilling a need for connection and learning. This year Strike Up is back on March 3 and is ENTIRELY FREE TO ATTEND. The line up of women speaking are to put it simply, wonder women. Amber Mac, Joanna Griffiths, Jenn Harper and Teara Fraser are but a few of the featured speakers. Today I’m joined by two of the featured speakers, Robin Kovitz, President and CEO of Baskits Inc. and Rachel Lambo, Founder and CEO of Sade Baron. I’m also joined by Devon Girard who for the last two years has pulled Strike Up together. Over the next half hour, we dive into gender bias for female entrepreneurs, some tips for getting around it, and the elusive quest for balance. These three incredible women are not gatekeepers of information, and open up about all aspects of their entrepreneurial journey, so take the time to learn from these amazing women, and when we’re done here head on over and sign up for Strike Up Canada.

Dispatch from Ottawa, Valuing the Care Economy, White Advantage and Wasted on Your Love

Sat, 19 Feb 2022 00:00:00 -0000

Caryma Sa'd who has been on the ground in Ottawa, sharing stories and news from the occupation there since it began on January 28th. Caryma has been documenting COVID-denialism since 2021, and knew that she had to be on the ground to document the Ottawa Occupation in real time. Her coverage, largely shared on Twitter has resulted in a dedicated following of people who want to know more on everything from the absurd Queen of Canada, to the disturbing organizers with a white supremacist agenda to people there for the party. Thankfully we always have Anne Brodie to bring us new escapism weekly in the form of new movies and television series. This week, Anne has deets on the new Will Smith series that reimagines his game-changing comedy series The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air in his new series Bel-Air and its worlds away from the superficiality of the original, steeped in realism and intense drama.

Commissioner Kadie Ward from Ontario’s Pay Equity office back for Part 2 in their series on a woman’s worth and this month we’re taking a closer look at the care economy and how valuing care can support economic recovery. Language can be powerful, and often times it just takes small tweaks in the verbiage to change minds. That’s what June Findlay shares from an recent interview she conducted with Stephen Dorsey, author of Black and White: An Intimate, Multicultural Perspective on White Advantage and the Paths to Change. By changing the phrase “white privilege” to “white advantage”, Stephen received a much stronger buy in from people formerly opposed to the concept of systemic racism. June joins me to discuss. Finally Apryll Aileen is here to share why she was inspired to write her new song “Wasted On Your Love”, an upbeat dance track inspired by the pop melodies of early Madonna, a splash of Britney and the synth bass production vibes of Canadian icon, The Weekend. Apryll shares the why behind the song before we end the show with her new release.

Sat, 29 Jan 2022 00:00:00 -0000

Commissioner Kadie Ward from Ontario’s Pay Equity Office. Over the next three months Kadie will be joining me to share information women need in today’s workplace on everything from ensuring equitable pay to developing new skills. Today we kick things off by taking a closer look at a woman’s worth. Clare Kumar is a bright, happy, light in a very cold world, both literally and figuratively right now. Clare joins me to share some information on beating burnout for good by conducting Productivity CPR on every aspect of your life, so you can show up with intention personally and professionally. Anne Brodie delivers in a big week this way with so much stellar entertainment we can’t fit it all in. You will definitely want to stick around though to hear about Scarborough, a film Anne believes is going to sweep awards seasons, plus Pam & Tommy on Disney+ which is a combination we can barely wrap our heads around, plus Kirsten Bell’s latest on Netflix, and a four part series on Bill Cosby. Sarah McVie plays the hilarious Val Szalinsky in the CBC/Netflix hit comedy series Workin’ Moms. A fan favourite, Sarah joins me to share a bit on the success of Workin’ moms, and on a more personal note, her struggles with endometriosis and why we need more research into this painful condition. Jerisha Grant-Hall is an innovative and strategic thinker who is committed to moving her community forward through collaboration and conversation. Founder of the Newmarket African Caribbean Canadian Association known also as NACCA, Jerisha joins me to share why she started her non-profit and how she’s moving the needle.

Women's Empowerment, Funny Woman, Eating Disorders on the Rise and Eating Healthy on a Budget

Sun, 23 Jan 2022 00:00:00 -0000

First up, The Honourable Jean Augustine joins me to share details from her appearance this week at The Canadian Congress on Inclusive Diversity and Workplace Equity and with information about the Jean Augustine Centre for Young Women’s Empowerment. Rishma Govani is passionate about creating real positive change especially in areas of diversity, equity and inclusion. She joins me to share the inspiration for her children’s book Sushi &Samosas - a trip of tasty transformations that helps kids break down barriers by the spoon and learn more about the world around them. Things in entertainment are looking up with The Gilded Age from Downton Abbey’s Julian Fellowes premiering on HBO. With Christine Baranski and Cynthia Nixon in lead roles, this series doesn’t pull any punches and is definitely not Downton Abbey light. Also up this week is Jodie Comer in Britbox’s Help, and Fraggle Rock which brings much needed joy to kids of all ages. Lisa Baker is a transplanted Newfoundlander living in Alberta who brings her razor sharp sense of humour to Canadians on tour, and through TikTok. Lisa joins me to share some challenges she’s faced as a woman in a still largely male-dominated space, and with some advice for all of us when the going gets tough. Pandemic stress has caused a surge in eating disorders particularly amongst adolescents and teens. Lianne Phillipson is a registered nutritionist, bestselling author, podcast and radio host of EAT THIS with Lianne, and also the mother of a teen who was diagnosed with an eating disorder this year. Lianne joins me with some advice for parents going through this with their children right now. Finally, we are all feeling the pinch at the grocery checkout. That doesn’t mean we have to let go of healthy choices though. Denise Lalonde is a Registered Holistic Nutritionist and joins me with some tips to eat healthy on a budget.

Weaponized Incompetence, Right to Disconnect, Free Tech Skills, and Mental Health Help

Sat, 22 Jan 2022 00:00:00 -0000

I rarely get nervous interviewing someone but when you speak with a Canadian broadcast legend, you can’t help but get a little bit flustered. Valerie Pringle, the former host of Canada AM is now working tirelessly behind the scenes to raise awareness for the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health Foundation, and candidly shares some details of her own experience helping her three children with their mental health struggles, PLUS some tips for parents going through the same in their homes. Anne Brodie is back with more entertainment this week as Omicron leaves us few options outside the home. You will definitely want to sink your teeth into Shonda Rhimes latest on Netflix called Inventing Anna. This 10 part mini-series stars the incredible Julia Garner from Ozark in the lead as Anna Delvey, who committed massive fraud pretending to be a mysterious German "heiress”. This based on a true story series is just the escape we all need right now. The need for women in politics is clear, but the barriers to entry are high as Glynis Ratcliffe found out when she considered throwing her hat in the ring for the upcoming provincial election in Ontario. Glynis shares some of the hurdles she faced, why she had to pause, and some thoughts on making a path into politics more equitable. After almost two years in isolation together, couples are noticing a lot of things about each other, including the division of labour in the house. So when is it problematic? When it’s weaponized incompetence. Lisa Sonni, a life and relationship coach who helps clients of all walks of life overcome challenges stemming from traumatic and or abusive partnerships joins me to help us define the term, recognize it and get it out of your life. Are you looking to upgrade your skills for the job market? Then you will definitely want to stick around to listen to my interview with Nancy Baker from Fort Erie International Academy, who has details to share on ten courses being offered to the public absolutely free to help upgrade technology skills. Finally, Ontario has passed right to disconnect legislation that takes effect June 2 this year. While it’s most certainly welcome, especially for those seeking work-life balance after two years in in a pandemic, my final guest says that so far it appears to be largely a political move, that doesn’t carry a lot of substance or direction with it. Deborah Hudson, an employment lawyer from Hudson Sinclair LLP joins me to share what employers and employees need to know right now about Right to Disconnect.

Education Trainwreck, Creating A Sacred Space, The Ex-Boyfriend Yard Sale, a Dry January

Sat, 08 Jan 2022 00:00:00 -0000

COVID-19 has led to the largest mass disruption of education in modern human history. Ontario, in particular, has suffered the longest school closures in Canada, and amongst the highest in North America and Europe comparing regional averages. Protecting education as an essential service is a policy choice says my first guest today, Dr. Prachi Srivastava. Prachi will be joining What She Said from now until June every month to arm you with information and questions to ask policy makers and politicians as we approach the June provincial election in Ontario. Anne Brodie had to dig deep this week to find the best of the best in entertainment, with new theatrical releases in short supply. She delivers though with some can’t miss movies and shows to catch at home right now to beat the Omicron blues. Whether by circumstance or choice, many women have found themselves stuck in a rut as of late. This year, What She Said in partnership with The Sacred Space is going to help you get unstuck. Denise Chand & Jennifer John, are Certified Cognitive Behavioural and Relationship Coaches, Unstuck Experts, Authors, and Founders of The Sacred Space Coaching. In 2022, they will be joining me every month with tips and tools to get us back on a path that empowers us to chase our dreams. What’s the cost of love? Haley McGee, interviewed her exes and enlisted the help of a mathmetician to create a formula - with eighty seven variables - to find the true cost of love in her upcoming book, The Ex-Boyfriend Yard Sale. Haley joins me today to discuss how her attempt to turn sentimental value into cold, hard cash, became a much bigger lesson in the value of failed relationships. Finally, If current conditions in Ontario, or even the ongoing pandemic have you questioning your commitment to Dry January, I’d like you to pause before you uncork that bottle of wine and listen Nadine Araksi. A Dry January MVP, Nadine joins me today to share some tips for making it through January without alcohol and possibly beyond.

Creating Your Own Sacred Space for 2022 And Getting Unstuck

Mon, 03 Jan 2022 00:00:00 -0000

Prior to March of 2020, many of us were on our "game", working within a system that we thought we understood. Then everything we knew came tumbling down, and it wasn’t long before we started to see that the system was largely an illusion. On everything from work to home management, women learned that many of the choices we had were not really choices at all. Crushed under the weight of home learning, working at home, losing our jobs, and isolation, we fell into a rut. And ruts, as you know, are notoriously hard to get out of if you’ve ever seen a car spinning its wheels in one. That’s why in 2022, I am so pleased to introduce you to Jennifer John and Denise Chand from The Sacred Space. These two ladies are here to get us unstuck, and get back on the road at whatever speed we choose thank you very much. Together we will imagine and action a new path forward, each creating our own impenetrable sacred space. In today’s podcast we have an overview of some of the topics we’ll be exploring over the next year and some steps you can take today to get unstuck. Welcome to 2022 ladies.

Sat, 18 Dec 2021 00:00:00 -0000

Dilys D’Cruz joins me to wrap up for the Meridian Credit Union masterclass on personal finance we ran all year plus results from a recent consumer insights survey that found that most Canadians have money hang ups from childhood that still affect them today. We all know that first responders and those who serve in our military cope with a tremendous amount of stress and mental health issues. The very nature of their jobs makes it so. But what of those closest to them, their families? Heidi Cramm is an occupational therapist and associate professor in the School of Rehabilitation Therapy at Queen’s University who leads the Families Matter Research Group. She joins me to share some of the research on mental health and trauma that first responder families are going through. Yollanda Zhang wants your whole family to get the most out of 2022. She joins me to share details about her upcoming workshop for the whole family that will help you hone in on what is most important so that everyone can move forward with purpose and peace in the new year. Anne Brodie and I have a little fun this week as we share our top 3 Christmas movies with each other, and it’s clear that we have different tastes. You won’t want to miss Anne’s picks because I bet most haven’t seen them. Finally, JENNA Nation is a Canadian R&B/Pop singer and songwriter who is quickly gaining momentum on the international music scene. Considered by many as an outstanding vocalist with a charismatic stage presence, Jenna has released a new single for the holidays called “My Christmas Wish” which will be the closing song of this show, and of What She Said’s broadcast year.

The cannabis industry is continues to grow in Canada and 34% of graduating university students are interested in pursuing a career in this still new field. Becky Griffin never imagined she’d end up working in cannabis when she was pursuing her degree, but now finds herself shattering glass ceilings and stereotypes working for Molecule Inc., a up and coming cannabis beverage company in Eastern Ontario.

Fri, 03 Dec 2021 00:00:00 -0000

Vaccines are the topic of my first interview. Few issues in our society are more divisive right now than vaccinations and sadly things may only get worse now that vaccines have been approved for children. Cathryn Carruthers is a double vaxxed mom in Calgary, who along with her husband will soon face the decision to vaccinate her children. She is the founder of Families for Choice, a group comprised of vaccinated and unvaccinated families that are united on one goal, they are against vaccine mandates for children. Cathryn joins me to share the reason behind her forming this group. It’s time to change out of our regular everyday stress and slip into our glittery holiday stress. With the holiday season in full swing, adding to our everyday stressors, as well as our pandemic stress, it’s a good time for our latest interview on, you guessed it, stress. This week we are joined by Dr. Juliana Rosario Yeung who joins me to discuss ways to manage the stressful environment that we find ourselves in now so that it doesn’t wreak havoc on our bodies later. Big thanks to New Roots Herbal for helping to keep our health top of mind in their ongoing series with What She Said.

On RBC’s She’s the Boss this week, I speak with Joella Hogan from Yukon Soaps Company. Joella joins me today to share how when you support her business, you are supporting her mission to empower and nurture an indigenous community in the Yukon, in Canada’s north. Finally, If there’s one thing we know for sure, it’s that science and medicine are always evolving. Unfortunately, policy doesn’t always keep up at the same speed. Dr. Paula Gordon, one of the world’s leading and highly respected experts and advocates for breast cancer screening is joining me today to share some important new information about a decades-old Canadian study that formed the basis for mammography recommendations for women in their forties around the world.

Victoria Welsby, a world-leading expert on dismantling fatphobia and diet-culture, joins me to discuss their journey from homeless and abused, with self-esteem that was achingly low into the courageous fat activist and change maker they are today.

Jessie Votary Put Her People Over Profit, And Came Out Ahead

Wed, 17 Nov 2021 00:00:00 -0000

According to Statistics Canada, Canadians enjoyed dining out prior to the pandemic, spending $2,775 or just over one-quarter of their total food spending at restaurants in 2019. Eating out had become a way of life. Flash forward to today and over half (51.2%) of food services and drinking places do not know how long they can continue to operate before considering closure or bankruptcy. Saddled with massive government debt, rising food costs, ongoing supply chain issues and a labour shortage, few would disagree that the restaurant industry has been one of the hardest hit during the pandemic. Jessie Votary of Ramshackle Industries in Stratford, Ontario knows this all too well, and yet not a single one of the employees in her four restaurants was let go despite three government mandated shut downs. A few of her employees were even able to buy homes. Is Jessie on to something? We’re finding out in this podcast as Jessie shares her people over profit philosophy with us, and her unusual relationship with her financial advisor at RBC, Tina Tamasi

FemmeBNB is Creating Safe Spaces for Women Who Love to Travel

Mon, 01 Nov 2021 00:00:00 -0000

This is the first of five podcasts with RBC called She’s the Boss where we amplify the voices of female entrepreneurs across Canada so that other women can learn and grow their businesses from the wisdom shared here. In this episode we’re taking a closer look as some of hurdles those in travel may face. When it comes to travel, women are definitely driving the bus. Travel companies dedicated to women-only customers have increased by 230%, and 80% of all travel decisions are made by women. Even more surprising though is according to a study cited on condorferries.co.uk, Regardless of what is going on in the world, it has been found that 86% of women state that they are not afraid to travel. This independence though must be tempered with practicality, because women face risks that men don’t. This is where FemmeBNB enters the scene. Yaa Birago and her partner Diana Obeng know the pain points women face when travelling alone, and are on a mission to alleviate travel anxieties through curated services on their platform and to reshape the women’s travel experience and connect women through travel.

I’ve done a lot of heartbreaking interviews over the last couple of years but my interview with Landy Anderson will stick with me for years. Seven-year-old Katelynn Sampson was murdered by her two caregivers in their Parkdale apartment 13 years ago and Landy started a Duty to Report Campaign calling on the provincial government to legislate two of the recommendations from Katelynn Sampson’s inquest.

Menopause, Feminism, Box Sets and More with Dr. Jen Gunter

Fri, 15 Oct 2021 00:00:00 -0000

When I first started experiencing hot flashes, I went to Facebook, as one does, to ask my hive what they did to manage their symptoms. I received over 100 comments, and the most obvious consensus was there was no consensus. In fact the more I tried to understand menopause, the more confusing it became. Should I take hormones? Would they cause cancer? Was I developing early onset Alzheimers or was putting the milk in the cupboard normal? How long was this going to last? I called my family doctor to discuss, and she recommended I read The Menopause Manifesto. Game changer. As with most things in life there is power that comes with knowledge, especially when it comes to our health. Dr. Jen Gunter has become the defacto leader of feminists everywhere tired of medical misogyny and joined me to discuss everything from why feminism is such an integral part of the menopause conversation, the latest on hormones, and even a bit of a trip down memory lane.

Breast Cancer Screening Failure, Indigneous Skincare, The Vaccine Divide, and Sacred Spaces

Sat, 09 Oct 2021 00:00:00 -0000

My first guest is Dr. Paula Gordon from Dense Breasts Canada, who shares details of a new report that provides insight into how outdated and inconsistent breast screening practices across Canada are resulting in confusion over how and when women should get screened, dismissal of women’s concerns by healthcare practitioners, and tragic late diagnoses of breast cancer. This week on RBC’s She the Boss, I speak with Leigh Joseph from Sḵwálwen, an Indigenous skincare brand that honours cultural knowledge, Indigenous plant science and self care. Leigh combines ancestral traditions with modern beauty rituals, empowering people to connect to themselves and the natural world. Anne Brodie has entertainment you don’t want to miss this week including Canadian Indigenous filmmaker Danis Goulet's Night Raiders, the Wild West film Old Henry, starring Tim Black Nelson, HULU’s delicious Baker’s Dozen, and the highly entertaining one-off look at the dozens of bare-faced movie tropes we've endured as a society over the past 100 plus years on Netflix, called Attack of the Hollywood Cliche hosted by Rob Lowe. This week’s explosive news about Facebook and Instagram has us all questioning how much division social media platforms are creating in society. Sherilynne Starkie from the Being Human is Good for Business podcast joins me to specifically discuss the issue of vaccines, and you may be surprised to hear that she thinks social media is not driving us apart on this issue. Denise Chand & Jennifer John Founders of The Sacred Space Coaching join me to share a few tips for breaking free of the rut this pandemic has placed many of us and how to embrace your life to become unstoppable. Finally, Rose Powell from Zealous Baby Care wants to ensure that everyone in the family, from baby to mom, dad and siblings, are getting the rest they need so they can all be at their best.

Leveling the Paying Field, Pharmacy in a Box, Divorce Finances, and Superfood for Your Skin

Sat, 02 Oct 2021 00:00:00 -0000

Women have carried the brunt of the economic, social, and labour consequences of the pandemic inspiring new ideas like “she-cession”, “she-covery” and my recent favourite, “mandemic”. With governments and business leaders talking about a “feminist post-covid recovery”, Ontario’s Pay Equity Office wants to level the paying field. Kadie Ward, Commissioner and CAO of the Ontario Pay Equity Commission joins me to share details about their six part series Level the Paying Fieldthat explores issues related to economics, equity, women, work and money. During the pandemic, many Canadians experienced something they never experienced before….drug shortages. With supply chain and manufacturing issues, even the most basic medications were difficult to keep in stock. In underdeveloped countries, drug shortages have been a reality for much longer with 1.6m preventable African deaths per year from Malaria, HIV/AIDS, and Tuberculosis - all treatable ailments.

This week on RBC’s She’s the Boss we’re spotlighting MySuppli, a reusable takeout container service in Toronto that’s on a mission to provide takeout without the waste. MySuppli partners with local restaurants so customers can experience guilt-free takeout! Co-owners Megan Takeda Tully and Julianna Greco join me to share details about this company that is forging a brave new path in the green economy and why it matters. Anne Brodie is suffering from TIFF fatigue and joins me today with new movies and shows we won’t want to miss including Benedict Cumberbatch who goes against the grain as Phil, a psychotic rancher in the Wild West circa 1925 in The Power of the Dog, and the return of the series I’ve been impatiently waiting on since last fall, The Morning Show with Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon on Apple+TV, plus a whole lot more to keep you entertained as the days get shorter.

The High Cost of Kids, Empathy is a Superpower, Body Confidence and The Play Base

Sat, 11 Sep 2021 00:00:00 -0000

If raising kids is priceless, why does it cost so much? That’s the question we’re diving into today for the 5th in an 8 part Masterclass with Meridian Credit Union. Nancie Taylor, Senior Wealth Advisor at Meridian Credit Union joins me to discuss the price tag that comes with kids, and how with a little planning you can avoid some major pitfalls. It’s all part of our big plan to get you financially fit in 2021. In a world seemingly divided on just about everything, there is one ability that can inspire and connect, and is repeatedly being hailed as a superpower. That skill is empathy and my next guest, Erin Thorp, is on a mission to help all leaders learn this powerful skill and implement it in their leadership. She joins me to share how mastering empathy can get you further ahead at work and in life. This is the time of year that Anne Brodie works around the clock with TIFF in full swing. This week she joins me to share the best of the capsule reviews she’s seen so far including Night Raiders, a disturbing story in its own right paralleling the traumas of the residential school system for generations of First Nations. Plus some new movies and shows you won’t want to miss in theatres and at home. The negative thoughts we have about our body are not our fault. They are learned from the culture we live in where we’ve been conditioned to believe that our worth is in our appearance, SPOILER (it’s not!). Summer Innanen, a professionally trained coach specializing in body image, self-worth and confidence joins me to share ways to break free of the noise. When the pandemic first hit, women across the country were forced into their homes and into their kitchens. After cooking roughly 1 MILLION Meals or at least it feels that way, we want a break. Thankfully Jannine Rane, co-founder of Zing, a Toronto based company that makes chef- prepared pantry shortcuts to help home cooks bring a meal from your fridge to your table in 15 minutes or less joins me to share the inspiration behind the company making cooking easier for at home chefs. Finally, Play is an essential part of child development, exploration and how we learn about the world and how it works. Sadly, it is often dismissed. Frances Fishman is the founder of The Play Base, a behavioural services provider that helps kids grow through what they need most: play. She joins me to share why play is so crucial in development and how to get more of it in your life.

Dr. Krishana Sankar, Science Advisor for ScienceUpFirst, a national anti-misinformation campaign in Canada that aims to combat misinformation around COVID-19. From mask myths to virus shedding, the campaign to undermine real facts feels unending which is why it’s equally important that the campaign for truth is just as robust.

Our first profile for RBC’s She’s the Boss is Natasha Patten from My Coat is Blue. Natasha joins me to share why shopping Canadian benefits us all and why we should all be supporting black-owned businesses. Plus a fashion tip or two thrown in to keep us on trend. Anne Brodie’s emotions were put to the test this week with intense entertainment coming our way with everything from Prince Harry’s new documentary series The Me You Can’t See on Apple+ TV, New Order, an explosive portrait of social unrest you'll not soon forget and HBO Max's timely, and fact-based film Oslo about the secret backchannel meetings that took place between two Israelis and two Palestinians in 1993. Sleep has been an elusive companion for many during this pandemic, with the term coronasomnia recently being coined so I’ve invited Alanna McGinn from Good Night Sleep Site to join me this week to give us her best tips for getting the shut eye we all so desperately need. We’re not only tired from lack of sleep but we’re also suffering from Covid Fatigue so Dr. Andrea Dinardo is here to give us the 411 on Emotional CPR, which stands for Catch, Pause, and Release. You’ll definitely want to know how to master this technique. Finally, with so many women currently looking for work, Bibigi Haile from The Beauvoir Group wants women to know two things, first, do not underestimate the power of LinkedIn and second, get loud about your awesomeness because no one else is going to do that for you.

Cash in the Hands of The Homeless, Entrepreneur Inspiration, Cleaning Your Space and More

Sat, 15 May 2021 00:00:00 -0000

The New Leaf project, the world’s first direct cash transfer program and study of its size, helps those who are recently homeless. The results are ground-breaking and are paving the way for a new approach in addressing Canada’s most pressing social issues. Claire Elizabeth Williams is the driving force behind the New Leaf Project and joins me to share why we need to let go of a lot of myths and misconceptions about helping people who are homeless. Over one million women across Canada are self-employed, and during this pandemic, it’s been an ongoing challenge to stay inspired. Enter Vivian Kaye. Founder of KinkyCurlyYaki, a premium textured hair extension brand for Black women that she bootstrapped to over $6 million in revenue AND of a successful wedding decor company, Vivian also helps entrepreneurs from diverse and unconventional backgrounds use their awesomeness and unique capabilities to confidently build the businesses of their dreams. Anne Brodie has entertainment for days for us with Barry Jenkins' long-anticipated 10 episode series The Underground Railroad based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel by Colson Whitehead showing now on Amazon Prime, the deeply unsettling and excellent fact-based Profile which follows an undercover journalist investigating ISIS recruitment strategies designed to lure non-Muslim white women to the Middle East, and Jean Smart is back in a new series called Hacks. If you feel like your house is always messy despite having all the time in world in it, you’re not alone. Melissa Maker, the host of the CleanMySpace YouTube channel, founder of Clean My Space, a housekeeping service based in her native Toronto, Canada, and best selling author of Clean My Space: The Secret to Cleaning Better, Faster and Loving your Home Every Day joins me with tips to keep your space clean without losing your mind. Much has been said about work/life balance during COVID, but the focus is mostly on individual effort, leaving parents (mostly mothers) to feel it is up to them to figure out how to manage the impossible demands of doing their jobs, homeschooling, parenting, and managing the home. Anita Grace, together with her research partner Linda Duxbury, is engaged in an on-going research project about work/family balance during COVID, studying how Gen Xers are managing the competing demands of jobs and parenting. Anita joins me to share some of their findings so far. Finally moving to a new country where you aren’t yet familiar with the language, the customs, or the culture, can be an anxiety inducing experience. Doing all that under the umbrella of a global pandemic, is especially scary. Anila Lee Yuen is the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Centre for Newcomers and is here today to share some of this biggest challenges covid has presented for new immigrants to Canada.

Lifting the Matriarchy while Crushing the Patriarchy is How We do Mother's Day

Sat, 08 May 2021 00:00:00 -0000

My first guest is a mother, but also a black, Jewish woman leading a federal political party. As leader of the Green Party, Annamie Paul is not only passionate about the earth, but about social justice and women’s issues. She’s definitely one to watch as we move towards our next federal election. Anne Brodie joins me with the sweetest mother’s day documentary ever called Duty Free. She also shares details on Oxygen, a shocking sci-fi thriller that is definitely not for anyone who suffers from claustrophobia. Finally she shares details on the hilarious self-help mockumentary called Reboot Camp loaded with movie and tv star cameos. Do you adhere to best before dates? Lori Nikkel from Second Harvest would you like you to start ignoring those please. With an astounding 58% of all the food produced for Canadians wasted, not a single person in this country, or globally for that matter should be going hungry. Kathleen Donovan is a happiness expert, and that’s just the kind of expertise many of us our seeking right now. Kathie’s call to action to us is to unlearn what we think we know to be true, to stretch what’s possible, so that we can see our true potential and to live a beautiful life of our own design. And yes, you can even pursue this in a pandemic. Crushing the patriarchy is on our minds and in our actions from marches and rallies, to literature and politics. GenZ in particular is claiming digital space to educate and empower women, and they are not letting the trolls deter them. Power To Her is an organization focused on empowering women within the community and I am joined by Founders Shuchi and Sachreet who share their mission. Finally, Andriana Crawford is a Toronto-based yoga and meditation teacher, wellness entrepreneur, and writer. She created Black Yoga Society from her struggle to find Black-owned yoga studios, healing spaces, and esoteric products. Her goal is to promote well-being and self-care to BIPOC and beyond. She joins me to share her why, and with some tips stay calm in the chaos right now.

Anne Brodie has an exclusive interview today with Ottawa native, Kari Skloglund, who also happens to be the executive producer and director of Disney+ smash hit, The Falcon and the Winter solider. We definitely want to hear what she said about directing this wonderfully ambitious series with a woman’s touch. Meridian Credit Union is taking things back to basics for us this year and building out a masterclass series called “Take Control Woman!” exclusively with What She Said. VP of Wealth, Dilys D’Cruz joins me to share how we’re going to help women manage their finances through life’s various stages, from the basics, to money conversations, to building our wealth. I am so excited to be kicking this off today. Dr. Saadia Sediqzadah is a psychiatrist at St. Michael’s Hospital in Toronto and specializes in the care of patients with severe and persistent mental illness and provides care for people who are precariously housed. We talk about the pressure our current mental health crisis is having on mental health professionals, and how the pandemic is impacting those with mental illness. Finally, my Dry January turned into Dry February, March and April, and I noticed a lot of women are either dropping alcohol all together or severely limiting it’s use. Ann Dowsett Johnston the bestselling author of Drink: The Intimate Relationship Between Women and Alcohol joins me to discuss the reasons why women are giving up drinking and embracing alcohol free lives.

Losing Expectations, Budgets Done Right, No Kiss Dating and Pay What You Can Fitness

Sun, 25 Apr 2021 00:00:00 -0000

Agnes Wainman would like you to let go of all your expectations in life because they are holding you back and down. Agnes is obsessed with expectations and how they affect our lives and even coined the phrase Expectation Discrepancy Syndrome. Full disclosure, I’m a little obsessed with Agnes now after speaking with her and I’m sure you will be too. What happens when a woman tables a federal budget? A budget that makes sense that’s what. Allison Venditti from Moms at Work joins me to break down what Chrystia Freeland delivered this week and why it’s so important. Considering Anne Brodie typically watches over 60 movies and shows a week, I love seeing her act like a kid when she really loves something, and this week Anne is loving The Falcon and The Winter Soldier on Disney+ which just keeps getting better and better with Julia Louis-Dreyfus dropping into the MCU mix. She also says we absolutely can not miss Stowaway on Amazon Prime Video which presents us with a gut wrenching moral quandary in a beautifully crafted four-person character study. Plus enough to keep you going as stay at home and social restrictions continue. Dating is hard, dating in a pandemic is especially hard. Thankfully we have a coach, Canada's Dating Coach in fact, Chantal Heide’s counter-culture approach to dating is gaining traction as she teaches women how to use a “see where it goes, kiss the right one” approach, instead of today’s “kiss, then see how it goes” method that’s causing so many unhappy relationships and breakups. School is beginning to feel a little like a revolving door lately with a now you’re in, now you’re out approach, and frankly no return to normalcy on the horizon for 2021. So I reached out to the always calming Stephanie Sewell for her best tips on dealing with the education roller coaster. Finally, fitness should be accessible to all, not just those that can afford fancy stationary bikes and monthly memberships which is why Sharon Devellis’s business Reflective Fitness may turn the industry on its head with her “pay what you can” model.

Cities are Sexist, Which is Why Women Should be Designing Them

Tue, 13 Apr 2021 00:00:00 -0000

I think about the space I take up in the world a lot as a woman. There is rarely a day that goes by that I’m not acutely aware of how my gender affects the outcome of a lot of the choices I make but like many, I’m so immersed in my experience that I rarely give thought to how the world I interact in actually determines the space I have physically. My next guest has done a deep dive on this matter thankfully. Leslie Kern, is a feminist geographer, and has laid out what a female centric city might look like through the lens of motherhood, friendship, protest, and safety in her new book Feminist City: Claiming Space in a Man-Made World. Trust me, you’ll never look at the infrastructure surrounding you quite the same way again.

Every woman who listens to Kimberley Black’s story will have chills. In the early evening last July, Kimberley went for a walk in her neighbourhood as she often did and was found 18 hours later lying in a creek with multiple life-threatening injuries, after being assaulted and left for dead. Less than a year later Kimberley is moving forward with her life, and is offering up tales of resilience through her #bpositive initiative to help other women move forward after traumatic events in life. We are all longing for a return to normalcy and Carolyn Ray brings us a glimmer of it this week with the results of a new travel survey her company Journeywoman conducted on women’s travel readiness. Carolyn shares what travel will look like, the trend towards slow travel, and why personal safety is a top concern. How are you making out with that #quarantine15? A recent report on CNN shared that some people may have gained more than 1.5 pounds on average Lindsay Gee and believes life is about balance and finding what you need to make you feel strong and healthy. She joins me with some tips for staying healthy without beating up on yourself. Finally, I know this week has been hard on you.

I could have spent the entire hour with Anne Brodie this week, there’s just so much entertainment on the docket this weekend, but we crammed as much as we could into the short time we have including Michelle Pfeiffer in French Exit, Godzilla vs Kong which might be the campy escape you need this weekend, plus HBO Documentary Films brilliant four-part series Exterminate the Brutes from Raoul Peck which is a no holds barred, dizzying examination of the cost of men's greed, genocide, and colonialism. Have you ever wondered what life might look like if women designed the world? Thankfully Leslie Kern has. A feminist geographer, Leslie has laid out what a female centric city might look like through the lens of motherhood, friendship, protest, and safety in her new book Feminist City: Claiming Space in Man-Made World. Misconceptions about obesity has led to an increase in weight shaming during this pandemic and frankly it’s a stigma that really needs to end now. Dr. Sarah Nutter from Obesity Canada’s Every Body Matters collaborative joins me to share what’s driving the behaviour of some to judge others and the damage it can do. Finally, we’ve all been looking for comfort during the last year, so it’s fitting that this Easter weekend, you might find it with a Rabbit, and it’s trust Bear friend. Tara Shannon, illustrator and author joins me to share details about her new book for the young and young at heart called Rabbit & Bear Make a Wish, based on a drawing that went viral exactly one year ago.

Bella Brave, TikTok Megastar and Medical Mom Kyla Thomson

Tue, 30 Mar 2021 00:00:00 -0000

If we’re being really honest with ourselves, we have to admit that many of us have got caught up in the “poor me” loop of living through a major pandemic and all the negative effects it’s had on our life. You can certainly colour me “guilty as charged” but when I have those moments, I look for two things, 1 )Perspective or contrast and 2) Uplifting stories, which is why I reached out to my next guest to join me because both of those things are achieved every time I check in on them. Kyla Thomson is the mom of Bella, and their account on Tiktok has grown to over 1.9 million followers as of this air date, and it just keeps growing. Listen to Kyla as she shares Bella’s story of over 800 nights in the hospital before she was 7, her wait for a bowel transplant, the weight of Covid, how Bella is dealing with Tiktok stardom, but most of all, listen for the love, hope, and determination in this story, and then ask yourself, if Bella can do it, why can’t you?

Sat, 13 Mar 2021 00:00:00 -0000

The Honourable Jean Augustine is a social justice warrior in the truest sense of the word and a hard woman to pin down. A Grenadian-Canadian educational administrator, advocate for social justice, and politician, Dr. Augustine was the first Black Canadian woman elected to the House of Commons and she is absolutely tireless and always working as you’ll hear through the interview with the buzzing and beeping in the background….it seem everyone wants to hear what Dr. Augustine has to say but you can here WHAT SHE SAID here.

Kelly Peters, CEO and Co-founder of BEworks joins me to discuss the vaccine showdown shaping up in our country, and how we can address concerns of those that believe they are not safe.

Tiffany Moyer, my tire guru from Kal Tire joins me to share why it’s so important not to ignore the hits your car takes on spring roads, and what you need to watch out for on your tires and with your car’s alignment. Also, you’ll definitely want to know about what your car insurance might say about the time to switch your winter tires. No organization felt the impact of Covid 19 faster than Food Banks of Canada. Last year I interviewed them a mere two weeks after lockdown and the effects were profound. I caught up with Kirsten Beardsley this week to hear some of the incredible stories of humanity that have come out of this and how Food Banks of Canada continues to innovate and help those in our communities across the country that need it. Sticking with the topic of food, the last year has had a lot of us reassessing our diets as we seek to make our bodies and our planet healthier. Shelby Taylor, CEO of Chickapea is on a mission to create good for the world through nutritious and organic meal options and joins me today to share some of the why behind her increasingly popular brand and what it means for her to be a Certified Women-Owned Business and B Corporation.

Women at a Breaking Point, The 'N' Word, and Help For The Fashion Impaired

Sat, 20 Feb 2021 00:00:00 -0000

As we near the one year mark of this pandemic, the experts are now debating if the Covid virus can be likened to a wave or a forest fire with variants across the country threatening to roll us back into lockdown and dampening spirits everywhere. Women especially are watching this news with increased trepidation since we’ve already been carrying a heavy load and are unsure how much more we can endure. In fact my first guest today shares that only 7% of us claim to be doing well. Erica Ehm from Ehm & Co joins me to share details on a survey her company conducted recently that highlights some disturbing trends amongst moms which includes, but is not limited to less sex, more drinking, less exercise, and definitely more frustration. This is a must listen for all women and anyone who loves a woman. Anne Brodie has the biggest Saturday Night at the Movies ever to share and all I can do is wonder where is all this entertainment coming from. No matter though because tv shows and movies are bright spots in our lives right now, and this week you’ll want to hear Anne’s thoughts on Allen vs. Farrow, a four-part documentary series about Dylan Farrow’s shocking recollections with her adoptive father Woody Allen. Plus a look at Framing Britney Spears on FX and I Care A Lot with Rosamund Pike on Netflix. Samantha Kemp-Jackson joins me to discuss the N Word and yes, you know what n word I speak of. You will definitely want to hear Samantha’s thoughts on free speech, whataboutism, and whether or not there is ever an acceptable time to use that word. Would you ever suspect that systemic racism could show up in how we treat breast cancer in this country? Well as we are all learning, systemic racism is insidious and shows up in everything. Dr. Paula Gordon is one of Canada’s foremost experts on breast cancer and joins me to share how breast cancer affects women of colour, how our system is currently failing them and what we need to do to change it. If you now consider what’s fashionable your daily decision of what top to match with your flannel pjs, perhaps it’s time for a refresher course. Rachel Bristow is a fashion-savvy influencer who has spent the last year seeking out the best Canadian online shops to help us stay on trend, and in a price range we can all afford. Finally, you’d be hard-pressed to find a person who hasn’t been doing some deep thinking about their future and what they’d like to do with it these days. The result is that a lot of women are returning to school to either upgrade their credentials or pursue an entirely new passion. York University anticipates interest in its Masters of Leadership and Community Engagement degree program will be at an all-time high this year and Professor Vidya Shah joins me to share details about this program meant to help shape our world into a better place. You’ll definitely want to stick around to hear this one because the next application period doesn’t open up until 2023 so NOW is the time.

Triumph from Turmoil, Heart Matters, Uncle Tom, Deidentification, and Valentine's for Singles

Fri, 12 Feb 2021 00:00:00 -0000

Often in life, it’s the biggest disappointments that lead us to find our fire. My first guest is a case study in turning rejection into redirection. Janelle Benjamin is the Founder & Chief Equity Officer of All Things Equitable Inc. a company she founded after suffering her own mistreatment in the workplace. Janelle decided it was time to help others and effect systemic change. She joins me to share her story with us, and give details on how she is driven to make workplaces more diverse, inclusive, and safe. The heart is the focus this month when it comes to love and to health. Heart month is here and while many of us think of diet and exercise when it comes to heart health, you could find clues to your heart in your smile. Anaida Deti from DentalX shares what you should be looking for while taking care of your mouth. Anne Brodie is back with a sweet & fluffy movie on Netflix called To all The Boys: Always and forever plus more to help celebrate Black History Month with Judas and the Black Messiah based on Black Panther Fred Hampton who was murdered by law enforcement in the organizations early days. She also has rave reviews for A Day in the Life in on YouTube. The Black Lives Matter movement, particularly in the last year has ignited a commitment and desire for Canadians to learn more about how history has brought us to this point so that we can forge a new and better path forward. And let’s be honest, it’s clear we have not been getting the whole story and sometimes not even part of the story from our history books. Dr. Cheryl Thompson, an assistant professor at the University of Toronto dives into the history of Uncle Tom in her latest book called Uncle; Race, Nostalgia and the Politics of Loyalty which hits shelves February 16th and should be on everyone’s reading list . Cat Coode, my go to for everything to do with privacy online joins me to discuss deidentification. Never heard of it? Me either, and yet if you own a business or work for one that collects information then you’ll want to know exactly what deidentification is and why it’s so important for your customers that you do. Finally, Valentine’s Day can be challenging if you’re single but Natalia Juarez from Lovistics wants to change that. Natalia helps men and women through the entire spectrum of breakups or divorce; helping them recover, initiate a separation, win an ex back, and find new love. She joins me to share how you can take an empowered, proactive approach to your love life.

Financial Feminism, Valentine's 2021, and Risky Investments

Sat, 06 Feb 2021 18:00:08 -0000

By 2030 women will control 65% of the wealth in Canada. This is big news ladies, and I have a mandate here at What She Said to make sure we are all empowered and educated enough to use this transfer of wealth for good and that starts in our own portfolios. Judy Fairburn and Shelley Kuipers from the51, a Financial Feminist™ platform aims to build mutual wealth and social/environmental impact, share knowledge and experiences, and help women become influential investors, innovators and consumers. This Valentine’s Day is going to be so different for our kids but that doesn’t necessarily mean worse. Jaime Damak, always a bright light, joins me with some super sweet ideas that focus on making memories that neither you or the kids will forget anytime soon. Anne Brodie is sharing love stories this week with Netflix’s Malcolm and Marie starring Zendaya and John David Washington (Denzel’s son) and Two of Us, a touching story of the love between two senior women who have kept their love for each other a secret from others for years. She also shares details on HBO’s remarkable anthology called Black Art; In the Absence of Light from documentarian Sam Pollard which reveals a vivid history of a strong African-American culture of art and the new talent springing up all over the US. We’ve all been caught up in the Gamestop phenomenon happening in the stock market, and some of us might be thinking it’s a good time to jump in and invest in some of these heavily shorted stocks. Not so fast says Melissa Leong one of Canada’s best-loved authorities on personal finance. Melissa isn’t saying no necessarily but she does want you to definitely look before you leap. Let’s face it, we are all running out of things to do and so it’s with great joy that I can share The Quest with you today, a month long virtual experience you can sign up for at home. Added bonus? You can help raise funds for the more than than 240,000 people living with Alzheimers in Ontario. Even better? If you participate from another province you can even designate the funds go to your local Alzheimers society. You’ll definitely want to hear more about how you can become the hero in your own story, and in someone else’s. Finally, women entrepreneurs across Canada have been missing attending conferences for inspiration, aspiration and education. Thankfully, the conference all business owners have been hoping for is here with four incredible workshops built to help you grow your business in the these difficult times, and featuring two keynote speakers you definitely don’t want to miss! Devon Girard joins me to share details about this FREE digital conference for women entrepreneurs on Thursday March 4 called StrikeUP.

Unschooling Rules, The Little Things, Gut Health, Suspended Disbelief and More

Sat, 30 Jan 2021 00:00:00 -0000

Over the last year our education model has been flipped on it’s head, and many parents, are finding that the current way public education is modelled is no longer working for them. It’s a huge discussion topic, and over the next few months one we’ll be diving into it deeper as we look at alternative models of schooling and ways to inspire our kids in their education journey. Heather MacTaggart, founder of UnschoolingSchool.com believes there is no “school as usual’ in this Covid moment and now is the time to create schooling that works for kids. Anne Brodie joins me twice this week. First she’s here with the latest entertainment reviews including the edge of your seat suspense thriller The Little Things starring megastars Denzel Washington, Jared Leto and Rami Malik. Plus an understated, and moving performance from Justin Timberlake in Palmer on Apple TV, Penguin Bloom staring Naomi Watts, and Amazon Prime’s Small Axe. How’s your gut? In the past few years we’ve learned that the state of our microbiome can be directly related to everything from mood disorders to chronic disease. Most recently, science has discovered that poor gut health could put you at risk of more severe outcomes if you contract COVID-19. Dr. Sapna Makhija Gastroenterologist and Co-founder of GI Health Centre in Burlington, Ontario joins me to share what you need to know. In the month of January we talked about resilience a lot, but simply talking about and defining resilience isn’t enough. Sometimes you need to see it in action. Heidi Latsky has done just that with her short film Suspended Disbelief, featuring Erin Ball, a circus artist, who when lost on a winter hike for six days suffered such severe frostbite that she had to have both legs amputated from the knees down. Anne Brodie is back for a second segment this week with an exclusive interview with Emma Caulfield, who plays Dottie, Queen of the Suburbs on Disney Plus’s new Wandavison. If you haven’t started watching this yet, I can confirm it’s a must see and of course once you get to know Emma a little better, you’ll definitely want to tune in. Finally, I haven’t highlighted a lot of Canadian musicians on What She Said recently but when Julie NEff’s EP was sent to me I knew I had to have her on for two reasons, 1) Julie’s voice is mesmerizing and the songs are too and 2) how can I not have someone on who titled their album Over it because if that doesn’t describe every Canadian woman right now, I don’t know what does.

Canadian News Media is At Risk. This is Why it Matters

Sun, 24 Jan 2021 15:16:16 -0000

We live in a world divided on just about everything. From wearing masks, to left or right politics, and to conspiracy theories. How then do we deal with disinformation, particularly when each side believes their side is right? Equally as pressing, how do we ensure that Canadian news content has a fair shake when global companies are driving the views and news online? Heather Bakken, the Deputy Publisher at iPolitics.ca joined me recently to discuss why it’s so important to protect Canadian news media and some ways to tackle the disinformation war.

How Lack of Pay Transparency is Screwing You, Resilience 101, and Canadian News Crisis

Sat, 23 Jan 2021 00:00:00 -0000

Allison Venditti from Moms at Work joins me to discuss pay transparency. If you’ve never heard of pay transparency before, but you’re one of the 1.5 million women who have recently lost their job and you’re now actively seeking employment, you’ll definitely want to know about the tactic used to pay women and people of colour less. Anne Brodie continues to round up the best of the best to keep us busy at home with entertainment and this week she has a round up of films from around the globe including one from France called Lupin available on Netflix. Plus she shares her thoughts on Our Friends starring Jason Segal, Dakota Johnson and Casey Affleck. Not gonna lie, the trailer for this one had me crying the big ugly tears, you’ll want to stock up on tissue before watching. The hottest buzzword we’re all throwing about in 2021 is resilience, but what is it and how do we get our hands on some of that. Komal Minhas, an internationally known resilience expert joins me to share how you can become more resilient in 2021 with five simple steps. Where are you getting your news from? Chances are you find headlines through Google or Facebook. The problem is that 80% of Advertising revenue that used to go to Canadian media is now being funnelled to tech giants outside our country and that puts the squeeze on news organizations who pay journalists for investigative reporting. That’s bad news for Canadian content, and equally as bad news for democracy. I share 10 minutes of my interview with Heather Bakken from ipolitics in today’s show, but it’s such an important topic, you can catch the extended interview on podcast. From headlines to waistlines. How many times have you started a new fitness routine and then quickly forgot about it? Sharon DeVellis feels your pain, and joins me to discuss ways to simply get more movement into your life, without signing up for expensive programs and unattainable fitness goals. Finally, we’re digging for goals not gold around here at What She Said and Justine McDonald is here to help. A mom of two, entrepreneur and coach dedicated to helping career- driven moms maximize their work and home life through online courses, events, coaching & the Mama's Got Goals Planner, Justine is here to give us a nudge in the direction of our dreams.

A certified professional coach and behavior-change specialist Catherine helps her clients focus on mindfulness, adaptability and accountability and shares a little with us. Blue Monday, typically known as the most depressing day of the year is right around the corner and to compound that we’ve also all got a case of the Covid Blues. What better way to get around that then by planning for the future. Teresa Valenti, Senior Wealth Advisor at Meridian Credit Union joins me to share how taking active steps will prepare you financially in the short, medium and long term and improve your overall emotional and financial wellbeing. Do you feel like you’ve been winging it for much of this last year? Then you might be perfect for improv.

Mon, 14 Sep 2020 00:00:00 -0000

As I record this the El Dorado fire in California has burned over 14,000 acres. Aside from the sheer horror Californians are facing right now, it’s even more insane to think that this particular fire was started by a gender reveal party, crazier still, it’s not the first time.

When my next guest’s daughter came home and declared herself a “tomboy”, she didn’t just question what that word meant, but felt compelled to find out where it came from and how it’s evolved over they years and that deep-dive into one word has led to her book Tomboy that explores the gender spectrum and offers us all incredible insight into how we can do better for our children.

The Future of Food is Here and It's Buggy

Tue, 08 Sep 2020 00:00:00 -0000

There was nothing more disconcerting for many of us than entering the grocery stores in late March and early April 2020 and seeing the shelves bare. Of course, we had all seen images like that in our life from other countries, but to actually experience it, was an entirely different feeling. Like most things in life, being told something could happen feels abstract to us. So when it comes to the future of food, maybe this experience has made us collectively understand that things are changing. Our dependence on meat is harming the planet, bees are dying, and climate change is laying waste to crops around the globe. We will need to start looking at other sources of nutrition soon, and some of it is going to feel very very odd to us. Entomo Farms is ahead of the curve though, with cricket farming, an excellent source of protein, good for the planets, and comes in as many flavours as your favourite potato chips. Lauren Keegan, CEO of Entomo Farms joins me to discuss everything you wanted to know about cricket farming and then some.

WE Charity and the Problem with Charitainment

Tue, 25 Aug 2020 00:00:00 -0000

Of all the things that 2020 has brought forth, who possibly could have predicted that we would have seen one’s of Canada’s brightest stars, WE Charity, under a microscope. My next guest had a pretty good idea back in 2012 when she wrote her Masters thesis "Pomp and Circumstance: Communication Strategy, Charitainment and the Media Event in the Humanitarian Context" focusing on the communication strategies of WE Day, which won the Best Civil Society Thesis award in 2012 in Sweden. When WE Charity became a headline for all the wrong reasons this summer after the Liberal party awarded WE the administration of a payment program for the Canada Student Service Grant Program, a $900 million volunteer program, the opposition quickly raised questions about ties to the Trudeau family,. My next guest tweeted out her thesis and it instantly went viral. Meet June Findlay, a social media creative strategist based in Toronto and tipper of sacred cows.

Single By Choice, Not Chance

Sat, 15 Aug 2020 00:00:00 -0000

I think about being single a lot. I constantly weigh the pros and cons of being in a relationship in a way I never even considered before. In retrospect it’s also made me question why I ever wanted to be married in the first place. Looking back, it never occurred to me that I could have a full life unless was half of a couple, half of a whole. That type of existence never seemed like a viable option. We live in a couple-oriented culture and I knew no different. Would I have chose differently if being single was modeled or accepted in society? Would you? My next guest has always been single, by choice, and when she was diagnosed with cancer and felt that the health care system tried to kill her because of her marital status she started to research and write about being single in a society that tells us being in a relationship is the only way to be truly fulfilled. Meet Joan DelFattore, who is single by choice, not chance.

Sun, 09 Aug 2020 00:00:00 -0000

How often do you think about your privacy? Do you think about it every time you login to Facebook? Post an instagram picture? Send an email? Do you regularly ask Google or Siri to help with a task? Do you worry about data breaches or have you just resigned yourself to accept there is no such thing as privacy anymore? Personally, I know that I was at that point, and I emphasize was because in this next podcast I speak with Cat Coode, who is on a mission to help safeguard our data and protect our digital identities.

Living With the "Isms",

Sun, 26 Jul 2020 00:00:00 -0000

I first heard of my next guest when I read a Huffington Post article about his fears raising black sons during this time. It became quickly apparent thought that it’s not just the systemic racism of being black that Avi deals with on a daily basis but the that he is living with ALL the isms, seriously, almost every one. Trans, black, Jewish, in an interracial relationship to a gay woman, adoptive parent to two children with developmental hurdles in the form of fetal alcohol syndrome and autism.

As it turns out with a great deal of empathy and a calling to teach others how to treat LGBTQ kids with kindness and equality. Meet Avi Magdisohn.

Parents and Teens in Isolation. What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

Wed, 22 Jul 2020 00:00:00 -0000

Raising teenagers to paraphrase Charles Dickens, “is the best of times and the worst of times”. It’s been this way for time immemorial, but in 2020 we added a plot twist. We have taken teens who are hardwired to be seeking independence and pushing boundaries and locked them in a house, often with parents who are going through their own developmental stage at mid-life and then we soaked the fuse on this powder keg in fuel that comes in the form of school closures, non-stop social media, cabin fever, and mental health crisises. It’s a lot mama. My next guest is a straight shooter who is here to neither coddle the parent or the teen, but with empathy and a clear voice is helping to bridge the gap between parents and teenagers in a time of great crisis. Meet Aly Pain, from alypain.com, certified life coach and relationship systems expert, and viral TikToker. Bet you didn’t see that one coming.

Eating Your Feelings? You're Not Alone

Thu, 16 Jul 2020 00:00:00 -0000

If you’ve baked all the bread, then proceeded to eat it all. If you’ve ate every chip in the house, including the ones you’ve hid from the family during this pandemic then you’ve likely succumbed to emotional eating. We’re all guilty of it. Food brings comfort, whether it’s the feeling that comes from digging into a giant bowl of pasta or the high of overdosing on a box of chocolates, many of us have ate our feelings and maybe even some of our friends and family’s feelings too. The question of course, as the #quarantine15 sets in, is this, is emotional Eating bad for you? I was pretty surprised to find out the answer and you may be too but emotional eating is just one aspect of our relationship with food, so my next guest goes a little deeper on eating disorders and when real concern should set in.

Why Are Girls Dropping Out of Sports in Record Numbers?

Sat, 11 Jul 2020 14:26:06 -0000

When girls aren’t participating in sports it’s not just a kid not exercising anymore. It’s so much bigger than that. It’s a girl losing a healthy outlet to express themselves, to gain self confidence, to make lasting friendships, to learn how to lead, and how to fail. It means as a society we have less mentally healthy people in it, and ultimately when girls aren’t supported and given the best chance to excel mentally as well as physically, society loses. It’s much more than just exercise. I speak with Allison Sandmeyer-Graves - Chief Executive Officer, Canadian Women &Sport who shares some of the findings from The Rally Report and what we can do to keep girls in the game.
