When you're listening to this, Nikki and her family have added a 3rd bundle of joy to their family. And it's got me thinking about raising kids... Lots of them. And no one knows how to raise a bunch of kids better than Nikki's mother, Nancy Lee. So here she is! The top pieces of advice that I'm taking from chatting with Nancy is that it's important to set clear ground rules and boundaries and to make sure that your kids feel comfortable talking to you about everything. But first, you're going to need to accept that your kids are different and so they need to be parented differently. And that's not all she had to say.

Not sure what to say? Listen and learn how to speak about race, gender identity, and sexual orientation.In this episode of Ridiculously Happy Pplcast, Sophia sits down with Shayna Beeksma of ⁠Beeksma Law⁠ to discuss the current, tough social climate. Many in our communities are struggling with the anxiety of what to say to whom, especially concerning race, gender, and sexual orientation. So we discuss how to be a compassionate, kind person who is inherently ignorant--just like everyone else. Shayna A. Beeksma is an award-winning lawyer and the founder of Beeksma Law. She received her J.D. from Osgoode Hall Law School in 2011 and was called to the Ontario Bar in 2012, and she founded Beeksma Law in 2018.

All behaviour is communication. But when a member of the family struggles to communicate directly, it can be difficult for all members of the family to live in harmony. That's where Ariela Koldorf comes in. Founder of Spectrum of Light Support Services, Ariela has spent the past 20 years working in social services. Most of that time, she has been supporting high-needs kids with developmental disabilities and complex behaviour. A mom of a neurodiverse kiddo herself, she is passionate about giving parents and caregivers the perspective and tools they desperately need to confidently support their children and to bring harmony back to their home. In this episode, Ariela and I discuss how everyone is their own normal, the difference between a tantrum and a meltdown, and how a child's needs will change as they age. Everyone can learn an important lesson in communication by listening to this episode. So throw on your headphones and hit play.

Do we need permits? A liquor license? Insurance? Why would I need insurance for a wedding?? In this episode, Melissa Twist and I discuss the things you need to consider when planning a private property wedding. For example, where is the power coming from for the DJ? It might be cold, so you should consider getting blankets. Depending on where you’re getting married, you should probably rent a tent. Consider family dynamics and how alcohol should be handled. Book your shuttle service early. Make sure you have lights so your guests can see in the dark. And, have you thought about security? Yes! Having your wedding at home might seem easier… but in reality, it isn’t. So, be sure you know what you want, and if you’re not sure, listen to this!

Be yourself. That’s the first piece of advice I want to give you. And the second is not to judge a book by its cover. When I first came across Vanessa’s Instagram, I laughed. She has a flare for the ridiculous, and I love that. And when I reached out to her to ask her if she would be a guest on this show, she was so warm and open. I’ll admit I didn’t expect that, which is only proof that I don’t always follow my own advice. Vanessa Stubbs has transformed her creativity and flare for the ridiculous into a cheeky, sometimes vulgar business. Subversive Sisters makes her clients laugh and challenges everyone who meets her and her work to open their minds.

When you have big ideas, you need big confidence to make them reality. Especially when social media is ready and waiting to rip you apart. No one knows this better than Nikki Gal, who started her career at just 15.

Communication is key in any relationship. Romantic, familial, friendly, and professional. And that goes for coordinating with your wedding vendors as well. In this episode, Melissa Twist and I take our wedding planning series to the next level by discussing what you need from your vendors! And ultimately it boils down to communication. Your vendors should be able to communicate what will happen while you work together, from start to finish. You should also be signing contracts with each of your wedding vendors. Those contracts should clearly outline additional costs that you might incur and why. Melissa is an expert in events wedding styling with more than 20 years of work and educational experience.

Got laundry coming out the wazoo? Why not just throw it all in the washing machine and wash it all together? This is what I've been doing for years. And any little bit of self-judgement that I felt was washed away when Tamara's reel popped up in my Instagram feed saying just that: you do not have to separate your whites from your colours. Tamara Ebel had been styling hair for 9 years when the pandemic hit and she was six months pregnant. Seizing the opportunity, she bid farewell to her career. Juggling a new baby and feeling a need for flexibility, Tamara created her residential cleaning business. What started with a few cleaning gigs turned into a two-year whirlwind, booking clients a year and a half in advance, and a waitlist the length of her right leg. She wasn't one to rest on success, though. Tamara saw a need and created the Clean It Club Podcast, the Balance It program, and other resources to aid families—especially moms—in mastering the art of balancing time and energy. Tamara's businesses are all about the sunny side, never letting hurdles dim her shine. She's dreaming of ridiculous happiness for everyone, even when life spills the milk.

When we first start using our voice, we use it without fear. We scream, we cry, we whine, we coo, we laugh, we barble… we do it all with our voice.

Lauren Best, a seasoned performance poet and voice coach with 15+ years of experience in musical leadership, extends her creative prowess through projects like her 2023 poetry collection “Just Leaves.” Former Poet Laureate of Owen Sound (2017-2019), she’s currently crafting an audio poetry collection with sound art and intermedia poetry for site-specific installations.

Your goals matter the most to you and no one else. How are you going to prioritize them this year? Listen to this convo with Leah Vandolder. Most importantly, we want you to remember that it is not selfish to practice self-care. In my line of work and working so closely with families for over a decade, I have seen how women, especially, often put their own health to the side day after day. But, as Leah puts it, "No one is coming to save you." If you want to be happy and healthy, you have to figure out where you want to be and make the choices that will get you there. No one else is going to prioritize your health for you. In this episode, we talk about Leah's "hell no" foods, diet tracking, how stress affects diet, alcohol, sleep, and how to get back on track when you've strayed off your path. Leah Van Dolder is a women’s health & success coach. She’s also a registered dietitian who specializes in weight loss & behavior change. Leah helps her clients take charge of their health by empowering them with simple strategy, practical solutions, and mastery of their mindset. Leah is the CEO of her virtual coaching business Leah Van Dolder Coaching Ltd., is the host of The Reclaim Podcast, and is a regulated member of the College of Dietitians of Ontario. On a personal note, Leah lives in Collingwood, ON with her husband Chris and cat Gigi. She loves anything outdoors, enjoys investing in real estate, and is an aerial silks student at The Collingwood Circus Company.

Where should you start when planning your dream wedding? Listen to this for the piece that most couples miss. I sit down with Melissa Twist from Melissa Twist Events to kick off our wedding planning series. We get started with the challenges that we see couples running into and the importance of defining your priorities. If you find yourself planning a wedding, the absolute first thing you need to do is to sit down with your partner and discuss your must-haves and must-dos for your wedding. This needs to happen first. It should happen before choosing your wedding date, venue, photographer, DJ... You need to know what your goals are before you can choose a budget. And before your family starts giving their two cents, you need to know what is most important to you. Melissa is an expert in events wedding styling with more than 20 years of work and educational experience. This has enhanced her ability to be creative, adding a unique flair to each event she organizes. When not working, you can find Melissa planning her next adventure.

Kick of 2024 by collapsing time between where you are now and where you want to be one year from now. Paige Royal from Paige Royal Coaching gives us expert advice on how to do just that with visualization practices. This episode starts out with Sophia experiencing hormonal anxiety after her breakthrough with Paige, and the great advice that Paige had to get through that. Then we get into goal setting and why it is so important for us to really feel our feels when it comes to goal setting. Paige is an NLP Mindset Coach for Entrepreneurs and a Certified Master Coach and Trainer of Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP), Mental and Emotional Release (MER®) and Hypnosis. She specializes in discovering the limiting beliefs and unconscious blocks and patterns that drive our behaviours and hold us back from what we want. She is also a 20+ years former Corporate Securities Paralegal who took the leap into entrepreneurship. To say she had some unconscious mental and emotional blocks to overcome throughout that process is an understatement. Now, she helps people break free from their unconscious limitations and redesign their unconscious minds so they can create the life and business they want on their terms. AND ultimately reach their full potential in relationship to their personal, financial and business success, with ease and speed.

Do you have a teenage or pre-teen girl in your life? This episode with Tara Filteau from Mother Daughter Empower is a must-listen for everyone who feels passionately about the future for girls. By the time she turns 14, a girl's self-esteem will be 30% lower than her boy classmates'. That is an awful place for a girl to kick off one of the most hormonal, confusing, and difficult times in her life. And this is why Tara Filteau founded Mother Daughter Empower with her daughter. This Canadian charity helps arm mothers and daughters with the tools to deal with difficult emotions, build confidence, establish friendships, and communicate. We talk about social media exposure, bullying, friendships, hormones, and more. And most importantly, Tara challenges parents and bonus parents to look at how we are showing up for the girls in our lives. They might not listen, but they do absorb. So we have to be aware of how we are speaking to them and to ourselves. Tara Filteau is a registered social service worker and the founder & executive director of Mother Daughter Empower, a Canadian Charity on a mission to empower both women and girls. Before launching Mother Daughter Empower, Tara managed events, community outreach, and fundraising campaigns for some of Canada’s largest charitable and not-for-profit organizations. She takes pride in being a wife, mom of three and a parent, education & community advocate who is dedicated to leading a life filled with both passion and purpose.

You aren't going to get where you want to be by talking down to yourself. So why do you do it? If you're wondering the same thing, you need to listen to this episode with Beki Waples from Small Towns, Big Dreams Podcast. While pursuing a full-time career, Beki was told she was too "bubbly" to be promoted. She felt like she was constantly being pushed down and wanted a change of personality that would make things easier. But when she was diagnosed with ADHD, her life changed. She got more focus, her impulsivity and distraction faded away, she stopped talking down to herself, and she embraced her bubbly personality. She hasn't stopped talking, though. And it turns out that that is a great thing. Shortly after leaving her full-time position to work from home, she started Small Towns, Big Dreams Podcast. On her show, she talks with small town creators about the advantages and challenges of living and working in a small town. Living in Saugeen Shores, Beki lives with her husband and two children. Recently self-employed Beki is navigating being a podcast host and working in digital marketing. She is a self-proclaimed foodie who is working towards tackling a 10K in 2024.
