Kelowna, BC  -  The Cavernous, a heavy psychedelic electronic duo from Kelowna, BC, are releasing their most unconventional project yet: Please Hold, a full-length concept album only accessible by calling a toll-free number. The album dropped July 28, 2025. Dial 1-877-420-9159 and you won't find a streaming link - you'll be placed in a surreal hold sequence filled with lo-fi beats, ambient textures, dissonant soundscapes, and cryptic automated messages. It's an experience equal parts soothing, uncanny, and existential. While Please Hold is only available in full via phone, the lead single “Guile” will be released on major streaming platforms with an official video, offering a glimpse into the project's eerie, immersive world. Built around a shifting tapestry of paranoia and tension, “Guile”showcases The Cavernous' ability to blur the line between unsettling and sublime. Known for their wall-of-synths setup and experimental ethos, The Cavernous (Rob McLaren and Jesse Barrette) draw sonic inspiration from HEALTH, Nine Inch Nails, and Mogwai's electronic works. Please Hold pushes that further, weaving together washed-out electronica, eerie downtempo, and progressive synth odysseys into a nonlinear meditation on death, vulnerability, and the fractured calm of modern life. Created over the winter of 2022–23, Please Hold was born out of asynchronous collaboration. McLaren leaned into the slow, liminal quality of looping improvisations, inspired by ambient comfort and the strange stillness of lo-fi music. Barrette added unpredictable rhythmic complexity, like the rare 15/8 time signature on “Quinze,” and sonic oddities - glass bottle percussion, banjo-synth hybrids, and distorted field recordings. Tracks like “Vitric” unfolds like a synthesizer-led funeral march, written the same week McLaren's cousin and closest childhood friend was found after going missing. The album's narrative turns hauntingly personal as it progresses. In “Lo-finite,” an automated operator breaks the fourth wall, reminding listeners that they, too, are on borrowed time. Please Hold lulls the listener into a false sense of security before pulling the rug out, one dial tone at a time. “It started as a joke about hold music,” says McLaren. “Then it became a meditation on death.” Please Hold isn't just an album - it's a call you won't forget. To experience the album, dial:

You can easily avoid the mistakes that I made. Many of us start businesses while we're still in a place of feeling unworthy of abundance. We're desperate to land clients, so we cast the net wide (too wide), and end up with misaligned clients. Initially, many business owners also underestimate the power of networking and community. If you're just starting out, don't wait to launch your first offer until you feel like it's perfect, and don't wait for the timing to be perfect either. Instead of just talking about doing the thing, actually go do it. In this episode, you will learn about: What I offered when I launched my first business, and why it was exhausting. The one thing that changed which set that business on the path of growth. What happens when you overstuff your offer (and why we feel we need to do it). Questions you can ask to identify the client you're speaking to. Why you don't need a perfect product when you're launching your business. Why you should focus on transformation over strategy when launching your offer. Tips for pricing your offer (hint: it's not for work done by the hour). Why you shouldn't be afraid to go big, especially if your intuition tells you to.     Get 10% off your Sage Haus House Manager today!

Yesterday, both the U.S. Federal Reserve and the Bank of Canada cut interest rates by a quarter point. On paper it may sound small, but in reality it was a major signal. Central banks rarely move in tandem unless the global economy is flashing warning signs. In this case, the cuts were not acts of strength, but indications of a weakening economy. The Fed acted on the back of softening labour and inflation data. The Bank of Canada responded to one of the worst employment reports the country has seen since the financial crisis, alongside a GDP contraction and a decade-long stagnation in productivity.Canada has shed 106,000 jobs in just two months, the steepest decline since 2009 outside of the pandemic years. The unemployment rate sits at 7.1%, though the reality is worse given the growing number of discouraged workers who are no longer counted in the labour force. GDP shrank 1.6% on an annualized basis in the second quarter, far worse than expected (0.6%), and per capita GDP has not grown since 2016. Productivity has declined in 15 of the past 18 quarters, leaving Canada stuck while the United States continues to pull ahead. Against that backdrop, rate cuts were inevitable. They are not preemptive adjustments - rather it feels like recession management.What holds the system together in moments like these is confidence. Confidence in the housing market, confidence in the stock market, confidence in government. Yet for many Canadians, that confidence has already been shaken. Housing prices have surged far faster than wages, eroding real purchasing power year after year. Families increasingly feel that elected officials have failed them, and the erosion of trust has become a slow leak. Rate cuts might offer a momentary reprieve for borrowers, but they cannot restore confidence on their own.Vancouver, by contrast, is experiencing a rental paradox. Sales ticked up slightly in August, but remain nearly 60% below peak levels. The sales-to-new listings ratio has fallen below 40%, a threshold that historically precedes price declines. Inventory continues to rise, months of supply sit at their highest since 2012, and the price index slipped again last month. At the same time, rental construction is surging. Metro Vancouver will see a 17% increase in rental supply over the next two years, while Kelowna is on track for a staggering 33% increase. With population growth slowing, this supply wave will inevitably push vacancies higher, something Vancouver has not experienced in years. Renters will see relief in the short term, but single-family permits are at record lows, which points to severe shortages by the late 2020s and a return to undersupply by the 2030s for both asset classes.The central bank cuts will ease borrowing costs slightly, and some buyers will return to the market. But rate cuts cannot create demand where none exists, nor can they resolve structural oversupply. In fact, by keeping weak projects alive longer, they may extend the correction rather than shorten it. What truly matters is confidence. Rate cuts feel like gifts, but they are really warning signals. They tell us that fragility is here, not ahead. The question is whether we treat this fragility as a chance to reset and rebuild trust, or whether we allow confidence to erode further. Because when confidence is restored—in our homes, in our markets, and in our leaders—the system doesn't just hold. It thrives. _________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

Why is it so crucial for you to invest in your own visibility? Staying hidden can block your growth and keep you from reaching the level of success you want in your business. But when you lean into your own authentic visibility, you open the door to more clients, revenue, and opportunities. If you want to scale your business, you need to be seen—and not just in a way that gets likes but in a way that also converts. Showing up authentically doesn't just empower others, it empowers your audience too. Today I'm sharing tips for increasing your visibility in a way that feels strategic, sustainable, and aligned with you. In this episode, you will learn about: Why you're hiding in your business (and what you can do about it). How hiding feels safer, but actually costs you more. What it looks like to trust the process of being seen (and how I do it). The one thing you must know before you practice visibility. Who I'm on a mission to serve and how that supports my authentic visibility. How you should measure the success of putting yourself out there. Why focusing on “perfect content” doesn't work when building visibility in a real way. How to go from feeling annoying to acknowledging your gift to serve.     Get 10% off your Sage Haus House Manager today!

Speaker: Josh DoolSeries: Taboo Topics

What if I told you that being too nice isn't helping you? Being a “good woman” or a “nice girl” can actually be to your detriment. At the same time, as women, we are conditioned by society to please others and keep the peace. The problem is that “nice girls” live for other people while their dreams go to the grave. If you relate to this, you're not alone—and you're not stuck. Learning to lean into discomfort and taking a leap into being direct could change everything. Getting over decades of programming isn't easy, but your life and business will be better when you do. In this episode, you will learn about: The big mistake I made when playing nice with a company I shouldn't have. The difference between being polite and being nice. Examples of when we hold back from being honest (but we shouldn't). The ways our social programming shows up later in life and sabotages us. Why we feel scared to demand for what we really want as women. Why direct communication can be difficult but is also so important. How people exploit nice women, including real life examples that happened to me. What really great clients actually want you to deliver.     Get 10% off your Sage Haus House Manager today!

Welcome back! We kick off Season 9 of the Glass and Out Podcast with episode 306, featuring Seattle Kraken Assistant Coach Jessica Campbell. Campbell is of course getting set for her second season behind an NHL bench, after having the distinction of being the first female to be hired as a full-time NHL coach. The native of Moosomin, Saskatchewan parlayed her skating business and the experience of training NHL players in the off-season in Kelowna into the opportunity to coach professionally in Europe. It was then that Dan Bylsma, then recently hired as the Head Coach of the Kraken's AHL affiliate in Coachella Valley, reached out to interview her for the opportunity to join his staff. Two seasons and consecutive trips to the Calder Cup finals later, Bylsma was hired as Seattle's Head Coach and Campbell got the call to join him.  You can check out her IIHF Coaching Symposium presentation on Feeding the Attack by Breaking Down the PK now on The Coaches Site. Listen as she shares her keys to creating a cohesive power play, how to help players out of scoring slumps, and how breaking barriers has influenced her coaching philosophy.

Do you ever feel like you're crushing it in business and serving your clients well, yet you're still missing out on some major opportunities?

Your success can't be measured by how much money you make. Many entrepreneurs set that $1 million milestone for their business thinking that on the other side of that number, they'll find fulfillment and happiness. The reality is that making a million dollars doesn't paint the whole picture of success. The real markers of success aren't represented in numbers on paper. Breaking old family patterns and internal conditioning, creating a happy life with your family, and living a life you don't want to run away from are the true reflections of a life created well. In this episode, you will learn about: What I did to look like a “powerhouse mom” and why it was a lie. How the illusion of success shows up in life and business. The way people project success on social media versus the reality of it. The pressure of building a family while building a business too. The hidden tax on achievement that took me too long to figure out. Three stages of entrepreneurial burnout and what it looked like for me. The big mistake I made out of sheer exhaustion and how it traumatized me. What kind of changes I had to make to crawl my way out of burnout. What creating a more productive environment looks like, especially for women.     Today's episode is brought to you by LinkedVA.

This is how I really feel about getting older. I just survived another trip around the sun, and while I'm not one to celebrate birthdays, it has allowed me to reflect on where I'm at in my life now. I see a lot of women my age still carrying the weight of societal expectations, and it's time to stop being a “good woman” and stop playing by the rules. When you stop being the “good woman” and you stop apologizing for your desires, your whole world can change. People start treating you differently, and you suddenly become more sought after. In this episode, you will learn about: The expectations women grow up under and how it influences us. Why now is the time for you to start breaking the rules (and invite strategic rebellion). Society's narrative about your expiration date (and why it's irrelevant). What the “good woman” trap is and where the pressure actually comes from. An example of saying no confidently without the need to overexplain or justify it. How embracing rich woman energy changes the way I live my life. Why it's important to stay humble, without downplaying your achievements. Why we need more women talking about money.     Today's episode is brought to you by LinkedVA.

Dana Sutton Shares Her Latest Children's Book: Maddie Finds Her Place. This is episode 780 of Teaching Learning Leading K12, an audio podcast. Dana Sutton is a tutor, coach, and parent with decades of experience working with children (biological, adopted, and stepchildren) and young adults. She had also worked in preschool, and as a substitute teacher. She is now inspiring young minds with an empowering series of children's books that includes You Can Do Hard Things and Maddie Finds Her Place.  A keen athlete while growing up, she enjoyed playing fastball, ringette, volleyball, hockey, martial arts and skiing (both in water and downhill). While raising her children, she spent evenings tutoring students from primary school to first- and second year post-secondary school, as well as coaching and instructing various sports teams and athletes, including hockey, fastball, slow-pitch softball, martial arts, power skating, and ringette.  She has owned her own business for the past decade, providing consulting, payroll and accounting services for businesses in the Okanagan, Canada.  Sutton earned a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Calgary. Born in Ontario, and raised in Calgary, she has spent most of her adult life in Kelowna, British Columbia.  These days, when she isn't busy with work or grandchildren, Sutton can be found reading a book or riding her motorcycle (an Indian Scout) throughout the Okanagan, where she lives with her husband, Ray and their two Old English Sheepdogs, Guinness and Misty. Guinness, Misty and Bailey (Misty's predecessor) can be found as background characters in many of her children's book stories. Our focus today is Dana's book Maddie Finds Her Place.

We help you focus on the one thing you need to do right now to get to that next level alongside incredible peers you didn't realize you could connect with.

My husband Dan Martell is back, and we're sharing everything from our recent trip to Monaco. Dan and I think we're pretty good at squeezing every bit of fun we can during our vacations together, but we're also great at taking lessons from our travel experiences together too. In this episode, we're reflecting on the experiences from our latest vacation. Whether it was switching seats at a restaurant or making custom requests from our hotel, we found a way to flow on our vacations with ease. You can't force fun on a trip, but you can embrace your preferences and do it the way you want to. In this episode, you will learn about: An awkward-turned-enjoyable dinner experience we had together. A lesson in what makes people valuable (and what doesn't matter). How to know if you belong in the room you're in. The sunk-cost fallacy you don't want to fall into on vacation. How honoring your preferences can help you enjoy your trips more. Why we stick to a healthy lifestyle on our vacations and what that means. Our ultimate trip hack that made travelling way easier. What we'll do differently on our next trip.     Today's episode is brought to you by LinkedVA. Transform your business growth with expert virtual team members who handle your essential tasks.

My recent trip to Monaco gave me more insight than I could have imagined. It has taken a lot of work to get where my husband and I are in our family, our businesses, and our personal lives. We've been building wealth, and that's what we thought we needed to have the most incredible travel experiences. Yet, the biggest things I've learned have nothing to do with money. From embracing being disconnected to not caring what anyone else thinks, I got a lot out of my latest trip. I hope the lessons I share in this episode give you something to think about before you're set to travel next. In this episode, you will learn about: What true wealth actually is and why it's important to prioritize. How a recent restaurant experience with Dan taught me about self-confidence. Why we judge flashy people (and why it really doesn't matter). What it means to romanticize everything in your life (and what it looks like). How slowing things down beats living with a sense of urgency. Why being disconnected is an underrated business hack. How disrupting my regular routine helps me reset on my trip.   Today's episode is brought to you by LinkedVA.

Let's honor a friend and previous guest, Rachel Luna. Rachel encouraged women to stand in their truth, even when there's pressure from other people to stand down. Although she passed away recently, she was and continues to be a lighthouse for so many. In this replay, Rachel discusses the toughest moments she faced as an entrepreneur, why it's okay to offend others (and even judge them), her experiences with racism and cancel culture, and how to anchor your life and business in your values. Rachel lived unfiltered and unafraid, and she's deeply missed. In this episode, you will learn about: Having faith and respect for other people's beliefs (and their curiosity). The toughest moment she faced as an entrepreneur. How her priorities changed after her breast cancer diagnosis. How a shift in language can activate your unconscious programming. Rachel's neuroscience perspective on judgement and what it really means. Why you have permission to be offensive and how to use it for good. How to make better decisions in your personal life and your business. What it means to be a wild woman: Freedom to be—whatever that means to you.

Being at the top doesn't mean you have to be alone. When I reflect back on the success I've had in life and business, I realize it all came down to the quality of the relationships I had. When I'm comfortable and safe with my tribe, I feel healthy and complete. There's no greater feeling than being surrounded by women at the same-level playing field. So, what kind of people should you look for to build your group of business besties? In this episode, I'll share the steps you can take to build your community, along with how creating your own group of business besties will support you. In this episode, you will learn about: How the right people have come into my life by design. How being around the right people influences your energy and mindset. What successful business people focus on (and it's not what you think). What the studies say about women in community and why it matters. Why your tribe doesn't have to be full of entrepreneurs (and who they should be). What to do to find the kind of women you want in your tribe.   Today's episode is brought to you by LinkedVA.

The next step for your business might already be decided. Kiki Keysers founded KIVARI in 2014, and now she has 11 retail store locations across Australia.

Why the photoshoots are Kiki's favorite part of the process. Why failure needs to be normalized, especially in business. Kiki's biggest mistake that she has made in her business.

Think everyone working in Hollywood is rich, famous, and living the dream? Think again. In this episode, host Gabe Howard pulls back the velvet curtain with therapist and Hollywood insider Shanelle Connell to expose the reality behind the entertainment industry's glossy facade. Forget the multimillion-dollar paychecks and private jets — most working actors, crew members, and directors grapple with constant rejection, financial insecurity, 12- to 15-hour workdays, and the unrelenting pressure to smile through it all. Even finding a therapist can be a minefield when your life is dismissed as glamorous nonsense. Takeaways: The emotional whiplash of booking a gig… and the crash that follows How societal judgment can keep performers from getting help The hidden cost of “doing what you love” when your work devours your identity Why so many stay in the industry — even if it weighs on them Whether you watch tons of movies or just wonder how fame warps mental health, this conversation will challenge everything you thought you knew about Hollywood — and the humans who keep it running. Our guest, Shanelle Connell, completed her BA in Psychology at the University of British Columbia – Okanagan. While there, she briefly served as a UBC Mental Health Network board member and performed research under Dr. Jocelyn Wentland and Dr. Suzanne Holtzman. Additionally, she participated in the Indigenous Research Mentorship Program, which awards First Nations, Inuit, and Métis undergraduate students (like herself) the possibility to work alongside faculty mentors to gain research experience of their ideal interest. Shanelle also ensured to enroll in many special interest classes at her university, like the Psychology of Creativity, Humour, and Interpersonal Relationship Psychology – contributing to her expansive understanding of how our unique psychology colours every aspect of our lives.  As a former Miss Universe Canada delegate and Miss World Okanagan, Shanelle has used her platform to actively advocate on behalf of individuals who have experienced and survived domestic, mental, and sexual violence/abuse – and continues to work with individuals healing from the effects of narcissistic trauma.  In 2019, Shanelle re-entered the film industry and began her professional work as an actor. She leveraged her 20+ years engagement in performance arts and commercial market to guide her journey as she made her way to on-screen entertainment. However, Shanelle did not start there and has worked in various positions like stand-in and graphics department, producing, and even has had a behind-the-scenes look at the chaos that follows agency life and the casting process. Hence, she truly understands our everyday ups and downs in this creative field. Today, Shanelle is an active member of UBCP-ACTRA and the CMPA, living between Vancouver and Kelowna, British Columbia. She frequently collaborates with our unions, non-profit organizations, and industry leaders to ensure she stays proficient in what film needs for mental health support. Even more, she values the feedback of her peers (those on and off set) on what can make her practice and our industry better. Therefore, Shanelle proudly amalgamates this insider information with her credentials to finally offer our colleagues what they deserve. Our host, Gabe Howard, is an award-winning writer and speaker who lives with bipolar disorder. He is the author of the popular book, "Mental Illness is an Asshole and other Observations," available from Amazon; signed copies are also available directly from the author. Gabe is also the host of the "Inside Bipolar" podcast with Dr. Nicole Washington. Gabe makes his home in the suburbs of Columbus, Ohio. He lives with his supportive wife, Kendall, and a Miniature Schnauzer dog that he never wanted, but now can't imagine life without.

Your relationship and your business both need attention and hard work. My husband and I are both entrepreneurs, we have two kids, and we're growing businesses.

The way we deal with our issues when they come up. How we use weekly meetings to create intentional space for each other. What we do to manage the differences in our personalities. Why you don't need to marry someone who thinks exactly like you. How we work together to protect each other's energy.

In this episode, you will learn about: Where our visions actually come from and how to let them unfold. What we tend to do when doubt creeps in, and what to do instead. How a woman's intuition shows up when she's finding her vision. How getting diagnosed with a brain tumor changed everything for Jackie. How to break free when you feel stuck in a loop. The types of founders Jackie's been working with more recently and what it's taught her. Why Jackie believes strongly in coaching (but the mistake she initially made with it).

Sometimes it's the money you don't spend that ends up costing you the most. Broke thinking isn't about your account balance, it's about your relationship with possibilities and growth. Being smart with your money is one thing, but acting with a fear-based mindset is another (and will actually keep you from making more). If you want to get unstuck from the money mindset you have now, you can take the steps I'm sharing in this episode. Once your perspective starts to shift, you'll see the truth about spending. In this episode, you will learn about: The difference between how rich people think versus how broke people think. Where broke thinking shows up even when you have money. The actionable steps to rewiring your broke mindset. Signs you need to do a money language audit (and what that looks like). How the cost of not doing something can be more expensive than doing it. The ultimate money reality check that will help you make better decisions. What you can do today to take the first step into a wealthy mindset.   Check out The Pink Skirt Project, happening June 11-12, 2026 in Kelowna, BC, Canada.   Got a minute?

You can do both, but you need to approach them strategically. If you're sitting on the fence of deciding whether to build a business or not because you're worried about how it will affect your role as a mom, this episode is for you. You don't have to choose between raising your children and building an empire, but if you want to do both, you do have to carefully consider about how to go about it. As a mother, you learn how to be ruthlessly efficient and prioritize incredibly well. When you start implementing this as a practice across your life and learn to say no to what doesn't matter, you'll realize you can do both. In this episode, you will learn about: Why you're not selfish for starting a business (and why others project this onto you). The importance of protecting your energy as a busy business-building mom. Why communicating with your people before resentment pops up really matters. How systems create freedom (and save your sanity). How I've changed since having kids and how this evolution supports my work too. Why community isn't just nice to have, it's necessary. Who you need to get on your side if you want to run a business as a busy mom.   Check out The Pink Skirt Project, happening June 11-12, 2026 in Kelowna, BC, Canada.   Got a minute?
