Have you ever set boundaries-  I mean your own personal boundaries,  or do you constantly tell yourself that some things are simply out of your control? You find yourself feeling let down, walked over, taken advantage of or worse silenced.  Our emotional and physical systems are tracking our boundaries all the time. The trouble—the reason - as you will learn in Nancy Levin’s book—is that in many cases, our conscious mind is totally unaware we have a boundary, much less that it’s been...

Never in a million years did I think I would be mentioning meditation and yoga in the same sentence as to things I practice in my life. I am beyond grateful that I didn't let stubborn and preconceived notions continue to fester and hold me back from things I would eventually learn to love. There are a number of disciplines and ways to practice yoga. I have learned that there are diverse teachings and teachers, studios, mantras, environments and the list goes on. I am excited to introduce you...

Burnout isn't just for us middle agers anymore... However, unlike the Baby Boomers and Generation Xer's - this new generation is quicker to ask for help- reflect and pivot. Just ask Mallory Rowan. In this podcast we talk about Mallory's quick rise with a global brand and the physcial and emotional toll it took. Mallory refocused, restructured and a rebuilt a business with a differnent focus: Health & Wellness.  She now helps others, especially Millenials and Gen Z's to shift their...

I am so excited to be tackling this topic and being able to do it with Dr. Andrew Pipe, one of Canada's leading experts on this topic. I have already mentioned to my girlfriends that it's a must listen (especially for anyone with teenage aged kids). Its scary, eye opening and something you need to be be up to date with. Did you know there is an actutal vaping line of clothes desgined to conceal the actual vapes so kids can vape in class? Did you know, last month, the yougest victim to die...

Lori Preshing speaks to Lianne about allergies in Children

Wim Hof , The man himself,  also known as "The Iceman"  got his nickname by breaking a number of records related to cold exposure. His feats include climbing Mount Kilimanjaro in shorts, running a half marathon above the Arctic Circle on his bare feet, and standing in a container while covered with ice cubes for more than 112 minutes. Here is a little background: Over time, we as humans have developed a different attitude towards nature and we've forgotten about our inner power. This is the...

I am hoping that some of you see the topic of this podcast and breathe a sigh of relief that it doesn't affect you. Infertility can be devastating for couples wanting children of their own. I am, however, really excited to bring you the information that could help you, your loved ones and future generations to come.  If you know people who are thinking of starting a family, trying to start a family or are struggling already with getting pregnant- please listen and share the content. This...

Are you dreaming of that perfect job? Maybe you are still trying to figure out what it is you really want to do in life? Have you been stuck in the same job for years and feel like you are being passed over for a promotion? Are you simply going through the motions living your life for the weekend? Do you tense up before a job interview or can’t figure out why you aren’t getting hired for the jobs you want?  We spend the majority of our adult lives at work. So it should be a place you...

Are you all in? I mean "All or Nothing" when it comes to your new years resolutions? No room for failure on any given day. If that’s your outlook, you may run into roadblocks that will have you heading in the wrong direction. Somewhere in there- there needs to be a Grey Zone, and wellness consultant, coach, trainer, speaker, author and mental health advocate Lydia Di Francesco has this zone well planned out- with room for miscues and missteps. Lydia and I go way back to the CTV Morning live...

Lianne speaks with Eliza Kingsford, a mind/body practitioner and nationally recognized weight management expert

Mental Health- I figured this was as good as a time as any to bring this topic to light with the holidays. We all suffer in our own ways. No one is perfect, we all have our inner battles. There are places of darkness and of light. We seek love and acceptance and we strive to be the best version of ourselves. I am very aware this is easier said than done- but when we have "hope"  - we have purpose. The focus for this podcast is on Cognitive Behavior Therapy. In a world that is creating an...

How many viral videos have had an impact on you? I caught one a couple months ago that made me stop, rewind, and watch again…It was a video of a teenage autistic boy with physically disabilities opting to leave his wheelchair behind and go for a walk. His name is Brandon and the video taken by his trainer garnered over 6.8 millions views on LinkedIn and 150 million combined views on other forms of social media and through news outlets. His trainer, Daniel Stein is the man behind Special...

Sometimes you can walk into a room of people, and be able to describe the energy in the room. It can feel cold or hostile, or on the other spectrum can feel warm and inviting.   Albert Einstein explains that energy cannot be created or destroyed- it can only be changed from one form to another. Here are some of my favorite "quotes" on energy:  "Energy is contagious- either you affect people or you infect people" " We become what we think about…energy flows where attention goes" I doubt I...

We hit on a topic that goes much deeper than what we see on the surface. We dive into the world of plastic surgery- although I promise you, not from the "House Wives Of Beverly Hills" standpoint.  Please don't envision nose jobs, tummy tucks, liposuction, face lifts, and breast augmentations. I truly am not looking to offend- but the reality is, plastic surgeons and their work goes far beyond esthetics and often deeper into health benefits, comfort, reconstruction and improved quality of...

A new podcast will be released overnight with Lance Essihos, the host of the popular podcast "Univeristy of Adversity".  The word “Adversity” is described as unfavorable fortune or fate- a condition marked by misfortune, calamity or distress. Used in a sentence “Friends will show their true colors in times of adversity”. It's synonyms include- catastrophe, disaster, misery...It'santonym is prosperity… Talk to successful people about their adversities and usually you find their road to...

Remember the slogan and the song...."Don't worry - Be Happy"? How wonderful life would be if it were just that easy. That's exactly the topic of this week's podcast and I found the discussion quite fascinating. We all seem to know someone, who always seems to be smiling, happy, content, grateful- we think they must be faking it, putting on an act to mask their real emotions and pain. I mean, let's be honest – who is really that happy. Is it actually possible?  Are we so numb to people...

Whether its joy, trauma or singular significant events, we each carry with us, hundreds – if not thousands of images in our mind which play a critical role in how we see things, our lives and the world. Most people think that you can't actually change ingrained patterns like anxiety, fear, lack of confidence, stress lack of fulfillment, low energt pain, patterns of self defeat, under- earning, underperforming and so much more.... Leading world Eidetics expert, Wendy Yellen knows you...

I met Rory Gardiner on the set at CTV Morning Live and interviewed him about his country music career. It's impressive.  He has toured worldwide and recorded songs in Nashville, and even opened up for Keith Urban. His latest albums are geared for kids. He's also a comedian, performing at comedy clubs all over North America and chillin with canadian comics like Tom Green and Mike MacDonald. But the turning point for me asking Rory to come on the podcast was his experience as a TedX speaker...

Nabil Khatib would likely have me running in the opposite direction if we encountered each other on a dark path, he’s the exact look alike of every villain played in every movie every written, however since I know better, I’d be clinging to his arm knowing he’d likely be the best to defend against any danger. He is a teddy bear wrapped in an MMA fighter. While he can play the tough guy on film, stunt double some fight scenes and ride off like fast and the furious, this former professional MMA...

Move over BNN and MSNBC. I managed to get former Canopy Growth Founder and CEO Bruce Linton to sit for an hour. He thought it couldn't be done- and time flew :) Where do you start when you know the man sitting across from you helped build a company valued in its infancy years at almost 20 Billion Dollars (Canadian). We had plenty to talk about! It’s always had a bit of a Hollywood script to it- An abandoned chocolate factory turned into a thriving production line of contraversal product,...

I’ll be honest, I have been targeted over the years by numerous companies like Arbonne, Isagenix, Beach Body, Body by Vie and the list goes on. Each message is beautifully crafted with a compliment and then a suggestion that I would be perfect for a product and an opportunity to have increased income. I’ve politely declined them all.   With that being said- I feel the role I have created here on this podcast is to provide information, knowledge and tips on living your best life and so I...
