In this episode I talk about what is - in my opinion - the number one relationship killer: contempt! If your relationship is contemptuous... it's doomed! In this episode I dive into what contempt looks like, how it feels, what it tries to achieve, why it happens, how it can cause us to act (without us realizing it), and what we can do when we experience it. This is also a call out to anyone who does fall into acting contemptuous in your relationships: cut it out! And if your relationship has contempt in it... get out sooner rather than later.

Guess what? The Canadian federal election is on Monday! I’ve already voted, and I’ll be involved on Election Day… but I’m not sharing in what capacity until the election’s over. In this episode, I talk about how precious (and rare) fully free democratic countries are, why we shouldn’t take democracy for granted, and why voting is important. I’ll also discuss my annoyance with the Trump-centric phenomenon of everyone and their dog bringing up Trump even when the political topic doesn’t even relate to Trump all that much, if at all; of course, on my recent Instagram post about how happy I was to vote in the Canadian federal election, of course some Americans wanted to make my pro-democracy, pro-Canada, pro-freedom, and pro-positivity post about Trump. In this episode I’ll also share about why I’m no longer talking to Americans about Trump, unless they do this ONE thing. Listen to find out what that is, and why, and why you - if you’re also Canadian - may want to implement the same rule in a North American political climate that seems to have forgotten that the world doesn’t revolve around the United States; nor do all political systems echo the American one.

Pessimism and negativity are out, positivity and optimism are in: if I declare this to be true, that means it’ll be true, right? LOL, I wish! While I can’t snap my fingers and get rid of all the world’s negative Nancys and pessimistic depressed masses, what I CAN do is tell you about why cultivating a positive imaginary and worldview (and default perspective) isn’t spiritual bypassing (or bullshit), and about how it can and absolutely will make you a happier, healthier person. Will you join me in making sincerity and earnestness and optimism cool again?
