Enter: Danielle Bayard Jackson, a Friendship Coach and Expert. Yes, it’s a thing! Danielle focuses on navigating female friendships through coaching and workshops. She conducts her own surveys and research-based strategies to provide tools and tips for making friends, keeping friends, and even handling the end of friendships too.

Carmi Levy is a Canadian technology journalist. You may recognize him from the many appearances he’s made over the years breaking down how technology shapes how we work and live. And while he could give us a perfect explanation on the latest iPhone, our conversation is about the health event that changed his life. Carmi suffered a very unexpected stroke in 2013. And while he’s always been a very thoughtful and genuine person, the stroke heightened his appreciation of the in-between moments of life.

I’ve always marvelled at the ways in which Carmi is attuned to the bright side, and how he injects kindness in everything he does. Carmi is a mensch, through and through.

You’ve probably heard some version of: The type of attachment you have with your parents or caregivers as a young person, helps inform how you operate in intimate relationships. Makes sense in theory, right?

The theory we’re talking about is Attachment Theory.  You may have read up on your attachment style, seen a post on it, or even taken a quiz to figure out what attachment style you or a loved one would fall under - but there’s a lot more nuance to the theory.

Sexologist Dr. Jess O’Reilly is back to explain Attachment Theory, but also help us understand why the styles should be seen as fluid instead of fixed.

Greg and Sam chat about "Shut it Off" - their youtube series on climate change and sustainability, how science and spirituality can co-exist, how to thrive making content online and the new generation of brilliant and diverse science communicators.

Grief isn't a linear process. Despite the depictions of grief we've seen and heard, the 5 or 7 stages might not be a category you fit into. So, what happens when you lose someone who you had a strained relationship with? What does grief look like in that case?

In this episode, Sam East chats with medium Tracy Stella. Tracy uses a process called Automatic Writing to connect people with loved ones that they've lost. She helps provide some clarity around what happens in the afterlife, and why our actions here on earth affect the ones we've lost. She also connects Sam with her Dad who passed in 2011.

Would you consider yourself to be a resilient person? Dr. Christy Gibson is a family doctor, and trauma and resilience specialist who focuses on equity work, medical education, and global health. She's built a community by sharing free resources to help manage and heal through trauma, while building resilience. She says, even if you've experienced catastrophic trauma, there is a way for you to heal through it - it's just a matter of understanding, and possibly rebooting, your nervous system. Christy has a book coming out in Spring 2023 called "The Modern Trauma Toolkit", which aims to make healing accessible to everyone - regardless of background, social class, access to resources, and what kind of trauma you've experienced.
