Human Rights, Empowering Communities & Unfiltered Beauty

It’s almost been a year since Roe V Wade was overturned in the US and in that time Canadian women have watched in horror as our American sisters have their human rights violated. It’s important we don’t get too distracted south of the border though and pay attention to what is happening here. Megan Johnston from Abortion is Healthcare joins me to share what we need to focused on to protect our own rights. Every year Canada’s most vulnerable population leaves money they are entitled to from the government on the table. These funds can make a huge difference in their lives which is why Food Banks Canada is helping helping food bank users claim refunds and benefits in partnership with KPMG. Kirstin Beardsley joins me to share how it works. Anne Brodie is in with new entertainment and this week we look at The End of Sex, an hilarious look at two people trying to spice up their marriage, Crave’s comedic, satirical take on Watergate with White House Plumber, and Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story which is more delicious eye candy from Shondaland. When’s the last time you took a picture and didn’t filter it or photoshop it. It’s hard not to in a society that is constantly pushing and promoting unrealistic beauty standards. Nuovo Photography wants to change that. Founder Catherine Theoret and marketing manager Devin Hickman join me to share how their six photography studios across North America are helping women fall in love with their natural beauty. Seasonal allergies affect nearly 18% of Canadians according to the Government of Canada, and that means there are just over 6 million people walking amongst who may not be feeling their best. Further, for those living with Asthma, seasonal allergies only intensify their symptoms. Dr. Christine Palmay joins me as part of our ongoing series with Care to Know to share information you need to know. Finally Lindsay Misiner & the 7th Mystic is a 9 piece, Halifax-based Soul and RnB band featuring an eclectic group of musicians with undeniable talents and personalities.
