What She Said!

We're starting off with Candice Batista, an esteemed environmental journalist and one of Canada's top eco advocates. In her new book, "Sustained: Creating a Sustainable House Through Small Changes, Money-Saving Habits, and Natural Solutions," Candice offers practical steps to make our lives and homes more sustainable. It’s a guide that promises to ease the burden on our planet while padding our wallets.

Anne Brodie is here with her latest entertainment picks. She'll take us through the lyrical drama "We Grown Now," set in the infamous Cabrini-Green projects, and "After The Flood," a British murder mystery that doubles as a call to action on climate change. Plus, she gives us a sneak peek at "Shardlake," a unique series set during Henry VIII’s reign.

Joining us from the world of political satire is Clare Blackwood, a brilliant mind behind Canada’s top satire site, The Beaverton, and the creator of "Late Night in Canada." Clare will share her insights into the nuances of political satire, her experiences with backlash, and her creative inspirations.

We'll also explore the transformative power of self-compassion with Steph Kelly from Copper Thread Coaching. Steph's unique coaching style empowers her clients to find a balance between achieving their goals and maintaining their mental health, a particularly poignant topic for today's celebration of mothers.
Wrapping up, Willie Poll, a proud Metis author and advocate for Indigenous education, returns to our show. Willie's latest children’s book, "My Little Ugochida," is an Indigenous lullaby that beautifully captures the deep love and hopes Indigenous parents have for their children.
So, relax and let us take care of you with today's lineup of enriching discussions.
