You know how when you have a good idea, you get a little lightbulb over your head? What if you had a bad idea, and a million cubic feet of rock collapsed on you.On today's episode: why the tourist bureau for today's story drink so much; how the people in today's episode work with equipment that would rattle an melt your skull off and sometimes want to cry and eat each other; and why the phrase “well, I'm glad that's all over” is rarely misapplied this badly.And because you are listening to this as a Patreon supporter, you get to enjoy an additional 10 minutes where we discuss: the hodge podge of brutalized bones and missing appendages that have sailed over the Falls; you'd hear about the increasingly ill-conceived and sketchy reasons people have tried their luck over the Falls on purpose; you would hear the tales of two waterways widely described as “inhospitable to human survival; and you would learn about the only unintentional subaquatic river trolley in the world.Niagara Falls has always been a magnet for honeymooners, daredevils, stunt performers and industrialists, but there is no place more ready to delete you from your travel itinerary in so many permanent and awful ways. It's also been a magnet for nature-inspired calamity. This is our second episode from this exotic location, and I could do an entire episode on just the daredevils alone. I really wanted to record this episode at Niagara Falls, but I also wanted to get it out in the first half of 2025, so no dice. That said, you can't do an episode about Niagara Falls without talking about the numbers of people who “take that vertical swim” on purpose.If you or someone you know sounds like they'd like to visit the Falls so-to-speak, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Children and teens face pressure from school, friends and social media, with added risks from intergenerational trauma. We ask viewers about how to support young people's mental health with a panel of experts — Coast Mental Health senior director Margaret Flynn, Indigenous physician Dr. Evan Adams and Kids Help Phone counsellor Joe Adetuyi.

Do you know the difference between your guts and balloon animals? Organs are ever-so slightly more flame resistant! On today's episode:  you'll learn how to squeeze every penny out of a beloved animal corpse; I'll accidentally teach you why fire is the best way to get rid of leaves, or a body; and you'll learn the surprisingly simple thing you should do if you found yourself full-bodied origamied into debris. And if you were listening to this as a Patreon supporter, you get to enjoy an additional 8 minutes where we discuss: two warm up disasters that lead to this one; how close medicine cabinets used to be narcotic liquor cabinets; the incredible fallout of trying to kill people on Twinkies; and the story of high fallutin' wild west rodeo “war hero” Buffalo Bill Cody I'm quick to point out to listeners that I don't like doing episodes where children or animals are hurt, and I'm happy to report the only things dying in this episode are 86 fully grown adults! (And a few animals, I'm sorry, it happens). However, at the very end of this episode, I really let it go to hell. First I tell you about an elephant that unplugged itself and created a minor panic that my parents may or may not have named my sister after – immediately followed by a barrage dog, bird, car and plane noises all competing to make it unlistenable, but I did it for a very good reason as you will see. Without getting too deeply into it, I have said pretty much since the beginning of this show that we need to keep as many listeners alive and safe as we can. A lot of times, that just means talking.

Wehlann  And really, the healing can happen in an instant, but we need words for how to process these things. Sometimes things happen, but it's words, and it's through the language that we can we can heal, and we can start to transform things.   Andrea L. WehlannAnd I think, I think it takes only one person to see you, one person to understand you. And I think that that can be so transformative, just one person, just one poem, one breath at a time, one heart at a time. Andrea L. Wehlann Your mind is a liar and a trickster and but that is a feeling that's inside, that's inner peace. And I think that yoga, each time you experience that, it builds on that and expands. And I really believe that there is a kingdom of love, of peace, of light inside all of us right now, right now.   ABOUT ANDREA L. WEHLANN: Today, Andrea L. Wehlann is CEO & Founder of Ganga Moon Yoga & Reiki Skool, a bestselling author and poet.  She's a highly regarded expert in yoga a Certified Hatha Yoga Teacher.   She's also a social worker with a BA in Psychology from Brock University and a Social Services Diploma from Niagara College.

Guest: Wendy Gillis, reporter at the Toronto Star Imagine someone going through a serious mental health crisis — and calls for help to prevent hurting themselves — and is then seriously hurt by those who responded to the distress call. It happened to a man called Brent Langille in an example of police on the frontlines of mental health calls. But shrinking budgets for mental health programs has led to the police becoming de-facto front-line mental health workers. We take a look at how this recent case highlighted cracks in the system.

This week on Unpacked we are chatting with guests Patricia Sproule and Hanna Mughal. Patricia or Patty as we know her is the President and CEO of Sproule Consulting, Executive Director with Synergy, an amazing advocate for youth in Chestermere. Hanna Mughal, University Student Research and Synergy employee and long time advocate for youth in Chestermere. We chat with Patty and Hanna about the need to listen and ask questions on youth safety and how to best serve the physical, emotional, social and mental health well being of the young people in our city. The need comes out of a response to a tragic suicide of a local youth and this group of community leaders were desperate to prevent this from happening again. Patty and Hanna share with us the process and their heart break and walk us through the survey results.  The data may be specific to Chestermere, the common thread of challenges for our teenagers affects all of our neighbourhoods. Unpacked is a podcast exploring life as messy people.

Life Juicy Podcast - Episode 13Serie Children Sexual Abuse Dating, the healing process continues This episode contains content regarding child sexual abuse that some may find triggering. Listener discretion is advised. As my spiritual master says: fear will always be there until the mind is completely enlightened. When you have experienced sexual abuse in childhood, it has impregnated all aspects of the mind. That is my experience. And, it comes back anytime you choose to get out of your comfort zone and expand your wings in life; the paradigm of fear will show up. And this is when it is important to dare to communicate my needs. So, after years of celibacy, I decided to get out of my comfort zone and be on a dating app…. After some cancelled dates, I met this person and fear showed up. I am grateful for your listening!

Content/Trigger Warning: This episode discusses subjects of burnout, self-care, self-harm, suicide, and mental health. I recently connected with Stephanie McMahon, a registered psychotherapist in Ontario, who happens to also be a wildlife rehabilitation centre volunteer, to talk about what burnout is and how it impacts individuals, what clearing space for self-care looks like, and how we can all ask for help when we need it. This week we're talking about self-care and burnout, and that means difficult conversations regarding mental health, self-harm, suicide, and what it looks like to ask for help. If you need immediate help because you're feeling you may harm yourself or others, please contact emergency services in your area. If you're in Canada visit talksuicide.ca or call 1-833-456-4566 to connect with crisis responders.

Guest: Nadine Yousif, mental health reporter A recent survey conducted by the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) has found disturbing trends. More than half of the 2,200 kids in grades 7-12 surveyed are not just reeling from the effects of the pandemic, they are anxious about climate change and the future. This is an eye-opening glimpse into how young people across Ontario have been coping over the last two years and is a snapshot of a generation that has grown up with the knowledge that they are set to inherit the Earth's worsening natural disasters. The Star's mental health reporter Nadine Yousif explains the Ontario Student Drug Use and Health Survey. If you are thinking of suicide or know someone who is, there is help. Resources are available online at crisisservicescanada.ca or you can connect to the national suicide prevention helpline at 1-833-456-4566, or the Kids Help Phone at 1-800-668-6868.
