So since the start of the year we've been talking about, speculating about, and gossiping about the Toronto real estate market over the course of this year. From reading off statistics we've seen, rumours we've heard from other professionals in that market, and headlines you see in the news about Toronto. Toronto real estate is ALL BAD, it's crashing, the correction after a 25 year bull run is here, and dog crate condos in Toronto is the Hindenburg that's taking everything else down with it! Well, that's all very dramatic. So we thought it best to bring in an expert in that market to break down what's really happening. Today's gueat is Alec Bowes from Indi Mortgage, a licensed mortgage broker with almost 20 years experience in the industry, who actually navigated the 2008 financial crisis, and who works in the GTA today. Please welcome Alec!Highlights of today's episode. 1.) First Time Home Buyers are no longer the driving force behind Toronto real estate prices. 2.) The market is softening with the banks being tighter on lending as you see people's appraisals actually come in below list and sale prices. 3.) The Guelph real estate market is actually in a very healthy place. Sellers are still getting their prices and buyers have time in the market to pick and choose, and negotiate a fairer market deal for themselves. 4.) Insurance fires. (Another rumour!) And so much more! Enjoy!Jason Paul902-220-7357jason@infinityrealestategroup.a@jasonpaulhalifaxrealtorAlec Bowes519-341-1299 EXT. 1alec.bowes@indimortgage.caMatt Legatto902-240-3304matthew.legatto@indimortgage.ca@mattlegatto.mortgages

Feeling wired, tired, and secretly dreading Mondays? In this episode of Wickedly Smart Women, host Anjel B. Hartwell welcomes Jasmin Dennis, health and wellness leadership coach. Jasmin breaks down her Burnout Pie Framework so you can recognize early signals, prevent a crash, and lead with resilience. Whether you're considering leaving corporate or staying and thriving, this episode gives you the tools to assess where you are and what to do next. What You Will Learn: The critical distinction between burnout as an occupational phenomenon rather than a medical disease. The dangerous cultural pattern of wearing burnout as a badge of honor or turning it into water cooler talk. Why burnout can easily mask clinical depression and go undiagnosed, leading to devastating outcomes when the chronic stress is treated as just exhaustion. How money becomes the primary driving force keeping people trapped in burnout cycles. Practical holistic prescriptions for common burnout symptoms. The power of holding space for someone in emotional crisis by simply allowing them to cry for 15 to 20 minutes without saying a word. How asking someone in crisis to return in two days rather than making decisions in the moment gives them time to release toxicity and get clear about what they actually need. The principle that pulling one thread of wellness unravels the entire tapestry of unwellness. Why the goal is not to eliminate all stress but to successfully manage chronic stress before it accumulates into the eight slices of burnout that require intensive intervention. How burnout affects not just corporate environments but also self employed entrepreneurs, healthcare workers, and stay at home caregivers, making community wellness talks essential for reaching people outside traditional workplace settings. How to use body awareness and emotional intelligence to recognize when someone else's mood or energy is triggering your irritability. Why the scientific community and World Health Organization are still working to identify the root cause of burnout. Connect with Jasmin Dennis LinkedIn Connect with Anjel B.

Check us out: www.thereadinesslab.com/dtp-linksIn this gripping episode of the Disaster Tough Podcast, host John Scardena speaks with Lauren Taylor, a 911 dispatcher who coordinated the emergency response during the October 1, 2017 Las Vegas mass shooting at the Mandalay Bay. Lauren shares her firsthand account of one of the most devastating active shooter incidents in U.S. history, describing the chaos, fear, and determination that defined those 11 minutes—and the long hours that followed.From the moment the first calls came in, Lauren was responsible for directing teams into a dangerous and rapidly evolving situation. She recalls the overwhelming sound of screams through the radio, the responsibility of protecting responders entering the unknown, and the emotional toll of hearing from people she personally knew on scene. Scardena and Taylor explore what it means to perform under extreme pressure, and how dispatchers—often unseen and unsung—serve as the foundation of every successful emergency operation.The conversation also delves into Lauren's continued service in public safety, including her recent experience during the Spokane shooting, and how these events shaped her decision to pursue a degree in Emergency Management. Together, they discuss resilience, leadership, and the lessons learned from crisis—how to process trauma, support teams through recovery, and lead with both faith and compassion.This episode offers raw insight into the reality of mass casualty coordination, the mental health challenges faced by dispatchers, and the courage it takes to keep showing up after tragedy. Lauren's story stands as a powerful reminder that while responders are often called heroes, the voices behind the radio are heroes too.Major Endorsements Impulse Bleeding Control Kits by Professionals for Professionals https://www.impulsekits.com Doberman Emergency Management Subject matter experts in assessments, planning, and training https://www.dobermanemg.com The Readiness Lab Trailblazing disaster readiness through podcasts, outreach, marketing, and interactive events https://www.thereadinesslab.com For Sponsorship Requests 314-400-8848 Ext 2 Email contact@thereadinesslab.com#DisasterToughPodcast #TheReadinessLab #JohnScardena #DobermanEmergencyManagement #EmergencyManagementPodcast #LasVegasShooting #MandalayBay #October1 #ActiveShooterResponse #MassCasualtyIncident #911Dispatch #DispatcherLife #PublicSafetyCommunications #FirstResponder #EmergencyDispatch #CrisisLeadership #IncidentCommand #EOC #IMT #EmergencyOperations #CrisisManagement #ResponderWellness #MentalHealthForFirstResponders #TraumaInformedLeadership #PublicSafetyTraining #FaithAndResilience #LeadershipUnderPressure #CourageInCrisis #HumanBehindTheHeadset #HeroBehindTheScenes #ServiceBeforeSelf

When was the last time you asked clearly for what you are worth. In this episode of Wickedly Smart Women, host Anjel B. Hartwell welcomes Amy Cosper, storyteller and brand builder to talk about risk, money, and the power women unlock when they find their voice. Hear why acting like Silicon Valley dulls your authenticity, how stories shape culture, why we cannot outsource them to AI, and the simple courage move that flips fear into forward motion. Smart, practical, and heart forward.   What You Will Learn: Why many women are trained to avoid risk and how regular practice with small asks makes courage feel normal. A quick test to notice when you are using a fake voice versus your true voice in rooms, pitches, and content. How authenticity grows as an asset over time and becomes a moat that cannot be bought or borrowed. Why community makes courage easier and how to borrow bravery from other women until yours grows. How classic story arcs help you frame your work so people remember it. Why AI can remix words but cannot create your lived experience and how to keep your stories original. How to use emotional honesty without oversharing and without losing authority. Why asking is non negotiable for funding and fees and how to state your value without apology. What shifted in recent decades for women and business credit and why that context matters for courage now. How to stop giving away ideas and execution and install healthy boundaries around your work. A clean way to reframe failure so sunk costs turn into useful data. How to build a personal story engine so your brand shapes culture instead of chasing it. Why moving one person today is a worthy metric when scale feels far away. A two part mantra for hard conversations.

Looking for more DTP Content? Check us out: www.thereadinesslab.com/dtp-links On this episode of the Disaster Tough Podcast, I sit down with Andrew Donawa, Emergency Management Coordinator for the Pasco County Sheriff's Office, to talk about what it really takes to bridge the gap between law enforcement and emergency management. Andrew brings a rare perspective—combining the mindset of a responder with the strategy of an emergency manager—and he's helping shape how Pasco County handles everything from hurricane response and flood recovery to incident management and public safety coordination. We dig into lessons from Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton, where Pasco County faced record flooding and major operational strain, and how his team worked hand-in-hand with fire, EMS, and outside IMT resources to stabilize the county. Andrew shares how he's earned trust across a culture that doesn't always mesh easily with emergency management, walking us through the balance of humility, persistence, and leadership required to build credibility inside a sheriff's office. We talk about how faith and service guide his leadership, how to drive policy changes that actually stick—like improved responder safety standards and water-rescue PPE—and what it means to lead with integrity when everything is on the line. This episode is packed with real-world takeaways on incident command, resource management, and interagency collaboration, and it's a must-listen for anyone working in public safety, emergency management, or crisis leadership. From Oklahoma tornado deployments to Pasco County's hurricane operations, Andrew shows what it looks like when emergency management becomes mission-ready, proactive, and trusted by the people it supports.

What if your fatigue, insomnia, or autoimmune flare wasn't a problem to suppress, but a message pointing you back to your purpose? In this episode of Wickedly Smart Women, host Anjel B. Hartwell welcomes Dr. Kelly McCann, the only physician worldwide board certified across internal medicine, pediatrics, integrative and functional medicine, and medical acupuncture, plus she holds a master's in spiritual psychology. Dr. Kelly McCann shares a radically different approach to chronic illness. That unique combination allows her to see what most doctors miss: your symptoms aren't just physical glitches. They're a guidance system activating when you drift from alignment. If you've been feeling that shimmy, that sense that something's off even when you can't name it, this conversation will help you understand what your body is trying to tell you.   What You Will Learn: Why multipotentialites struggle with niching down and how forcing yourself into one box can show up as stagnation or health symptoms. How symptoms function as data and direction, serving as your body's early whisper before it becomes a shout. The connection between purpose, nervous system regulation, mitochondrial energy, and immune system boundary health. How beliefs about worthiness and belonging may dysregulate the immune system and reduce cellular energy production. A reframing of chronic illness using body maps like chakras, meridians, and metaphors to decode what a symptom might be asking of you.

Looking for more DTP Content? Check us out: www.thereadinesslab.com/dtp-links Host John Scardena sits down with Moose Mutlow, Search and Rescue (SAR) expert, author, and instructor based in Yosemite National Park. With over 20 years of frontline experience in swiftwater rescue, recovery, and family liaison operations, Moose shares hard-won lessons about humility, leadership, and resilience in the face of tragedy. The episode opens with John contextualizing a recent Yosemite accident—emphasizing that the discussion was recorded before that event but underscores the real-world gravity of Moose's work. Realities of Search & Rescue Operations Yosemite averages 220 SAR missions annually, from twisted ankles to multi-day helicopter recoveries. Moose recounts six-month recovery efforts and multi-year search closures, explaining how search theory must adapt to reality.  Leadership, Ego, and Humility A central thread throughout the episode is balancing confidence and humility. Moose and John explore the dangers of overconfidence—both in rescues and leadership. “A good leader listens, delegates, and lets go of control,” Moose notes. “You're not the hero if you can't come home.” They discuss teaching younger rangers through “safe humility”—allowing controlled failure to build competence and self-awareness.Emotional Health & Responder Wellness Moose details using the stress continuum to track emotional health, emphasizing the importance of processing trauma before it compounds. He explains the role of Family Liaison Officers in managing information flow to grieving families—balancing empathy, structure, and control. Both men share personal experiences with loss and coping, from fatal rescues to family grief, reinforcing that “holding space in silence” can be the most powerful act of compassion. Writing, Reflection, and Legacy Moose's books—When Accidents Happen and Searching—help responders process trauma through structured reflection. Writing, he says, “forces you to articulate intuition,” turning instinctive experience into teachable frameworks for others. John parallels this idea to the podcast's mission: amplifying field wisdom for professional development and collective growth. The Humanity in Service “Service is a gift, but it comes at a cost,” Moose says, calling for responders to protect their humanity rather than armor it away. The episode ends with a heartfelt reminder to reach out for help, celebrate small joys, and share mental health resources with others.

What happens when the worst moment of your childhood becomes the catalyst for a lifetime of creative power, advocacy, and audacious dreams? In this episode of Wickedly Smart Women, host Anjel B. Hartwell welcomes Lolita Milena, a paraplegic actress, author, and digital creator whose journey from Siberia to the stages of America is nothing short of extraordinary. In this deeply honest conversation, Lolita opens up about transmuting trauma into purpose through dark humor, sisterhood, and relentless creativity. We dive into the hard truths about the U.S. foster care system, what actually keeps kids safe, and how she's building a sustainable creator business while staying true to her mission.  Whether you're interested in disability representation in media, survivor advocacy, or simply how to build an audience that truly cares, this episode delivers proof that your darkest moments don't have to dictate your future.   What You Will Learn: How to turn trauma into creative fuel without letting it consume you through dance, theater, writing, and digital storytelling. Why dark humor became Lolita's survival tool and how she uses comedy to bridge grief and agency while always punching up, never down. The real problems in the U.S. foster care system that most people never hear about, from understaffing to inadequate background checks. A smart awareness strategy for child abuse prevention that starts with people who don't know what they don't know and equips them to share. The difference between performative activism and tangible action, and why survivors need both to create real change. How to build a multi-interest audience that sticks with you by leading with story first, niche second. The meaning behind 2,4,5,9 as Lolita's sci-fi novel title and how she honors family through art and memory. A simple two-part self-soothing practice for hard days using oldies or folk music that grounds your body and soul.

Drawing on real experiences from disasters like the 2011 Brisbane Floods, the 2013 Calgary Floods, and the Queensland floods of 2022, she explains how early warning systems often fail survivors — and how FloodMapp bridges that gap.The conversation breaks down the complex science behind meteorology, hydrology, and hydraulic modeling — the three layers needed to predict where floods will hit, how deep the water will get, and what communities, infrastructure, and lives will be impacted. Juliette also highlights how debris flows, wildfire burn scars, and contaminated floodwaters pose unique risks, and how new data sources — from drones to social media — can be used to calibrate and validate models in real time.John and Juliette also discuss real-world challenges: why agencies sometimes rely on gut instincts in the absence of data, how false alarms affect public trust, and why risk management (not perfection) is the right framework for evacuation and emergency decision-making. With case studies from Oroville Dam, Hurricane Harvey, and more, Juliette shows how better models can prevent loss of life and reduce long-term recovery costs.

Even though we're heading into fall, sunscreen is still a product we recommend daily — for every skin type, for every client. But if it's not performing the way it should, that's a major red flag for us as professionals.

With decades of law enforcement, ATF Special Response Team service, and experience leading security for a large church, Jim shares practical approaches for balancing protection, ministry, and community trust.Topics Covered in Part 3Perimeter strategy — why extending security outward, even to sidewalks and parking lots, creates more time and distance to respond.Church disruptions vs. rare violent threats — preparing for the more likely challenges such as disruptions, vandalism, or medical incidents.De-escalation and “pastor-first” approach — treating people with kindness while being ready to shift into protection mode when necessary.Cultural balance — how to avoid turning places of worship into “fortresses,” while still ensuring safety for congregants.Active Threat Mitigation — Places of worship, like businesses and schools, should rely on trained, professional responders to protect congregations. Volunteer greeters and ushers are vital for hospitality and situational awareness, but they should not be expected to act in a professional security or use-of-force role unless they hold current, verifiable professional security or law enforcement credentials.Family and community role — why parents and local culture remain the first line of defense, and how churches can reinforce these values.Key TakeawaysPrevention begins outside the building — greeters and safety teams should look outward as well as inward.Most church incidents are not violent — disruptions and vandalism are far more common and deserve focused planning.De-escalation matters — approach with kindness first, but be ready to act decisively if needed.Faith and safety can coexist — churches can remain welcoming while still protecting their community.Families remain central — cultural norms of responsibility and involvement are more powerful than mandates.Part One: Leadership in the FieldPart Two: Charlie Kirk, Schools, & MitigationMajor EndorsementsImpulseBleeding Control Kits by Professionals for Professionalshttps://www.impulsekits.comDoberman Emergency ManagementSubject matter experts in assessments, planning, and traininghttps://www.dobermanemg.comThe Readiness LabTrailblazing disaster readiness through podcasts, outreach, marketing, and interactive eventshttps://www.thereadinesslab.comFor Sponsorship Requestscontact@thereadinesslab.com314-400-8848 Ext 2#DisasterToughPodcast #EmergencyManagement #ChurchSecurity #CrisisLeadership #DisasterResponse #ActiveShooterAwareness #PublicSafety #Resilience #Leadership #IncidentCommand #FaithBasedSecurity #CommunitySafety

Transforming Workplace Communication with Linda Carlisle - Ep.335

What happens when a brand strategist discovers her true calling isn't external marketing, but transforming company culture from within? In this episode of Wickedly Smart Women, host Anjel B. Hartwell welcomes Linda Carlisle, a fractional corporate communications partner who helps mid-market companies navigate high-impact change with clarity, compassion, and culture-forward leadership.  From mergers and acquisitions to organizational restructuring, Linda shares how her internal comms expertise supports psychological safety and lasting performance.   What You Will Learn: Internal communications is a form of marketing that influences how employees experience and engage with company culture. A strong internal culture directly shapes customer experience and brand perception. Leaders can intentionally design company culture through communication, behavior modeling, and what they choose to reward. During mergers or major transitions, thoughtful communication helps employees feel informed, supported, and psychologically safe. Fractional leadership allows experienced professionals to support multiple companies without full-time commitments. Financial planning and runway preparation are critical for women stepping into entrepreneurship. Having internal alignment around values and purpose is essential to maintaining team cohesion during growth or restructuring. Giving employees opportunities to volunteer together can deepen workplace relationships and improve retention. The success of a culture transformation often depends on whether leaders are open to embedding new behaviors, not just new messages. Working capital can come from many sources, but entrepreneurs need a plan for navigating income fluctuations. Being part of a leadership team as a fractional partner enables more informed and integrated communication strategies. Disruption doesn't have to equal chaos; done well, it can lead to growth, clarity, and stronger organizational identity.   Connect with Linda Carlisle Website Connect with Anjel B.
