Leticia Racine calls herself a “Returning Warrior” of the Sixties Scoop. As a child, she was at the centre of a landmark Supreme Court case that paved the way for Indigenous children to be adopted into non-Indigenous homes. Judges ruled that Leticia's foster parents could adopt her, and suggested her connections to her Indigenous mother and their heritage were likely to “abate” over time." IDEAS producer Dawna Dingwall explores how Leticia —and other adoptees — found their way back to the families, communities and culture — that never really left them.Dawna shares Leticia's story and this precedent court case on the CBC podcast, See You in Court.

We're kicking off our new series, David Lynch: Between Two Worlds, where we explore the dream logic, fractured identities, and spiritual mysteries of Lynch's later career — beginning with his polarizing Twin Peaks prequel, FIRE WALK WITH ME. In this first of our two-part deep dive, we explore how Lynch returned to Twin Peaks after its cancellation — and how his original vision for a Twin Peaks movie evolved into something far darker and more personal. We'll track the story from the series' troubled end through the film's early development, the departure of co-creator Mark Frost, the decision to center Laura Palmer's final days, and the winding, often surreal path the script took. We also dive into Lynch's inspiration, his collaboration with new and returning cast members, and the emotional weight of revisiting the trauma at the heart of the original series — this time from Laura's perspective.

I'm so thankful for this conversation with Stephanie Broersma about her brand-new resource: Reclaimed: A Course to Guide You Through Betrayal and Infidelity Trauma. This powerful resource is designed for those walking through the trauma of betrayal, offering hope, healing, and a path forward. In our conversation, Stephanie shares how the course helps you stay connected to the Lord in the midst of grief, while also providing practical next steps and long-term rhythms to move toward restoration. She reminds us that your spouse's decisions do not define your worth and that there is a real enemy fighting against both your marriage and your identity in Christ. If you've been hurting, this conversation will point you back to truth, hope, and healing.   Episode Highlights: What fires together, wires together. You have options when triggers begin to surface. Triggers don't equate to a lack of forgiveness. There's no need to rush. Give yourself time to get your emotions regulated before making a major decision. Allow the Lord the space to work in the midst of the grief and in the midst of the stillness and heaviness.   Quotes from Today's Episode: Give yourself time to grieve and heal the right way. -Dr. Kim God designed emotions to inform us about our world. They are not bad. They give us language to express what we are feeling.- Stephanie Triggers point you to an experienced trauma in your life and then you have an option. You have a choice. What am I going to do with this trigger?-Stephanie As you heal, the triggers become less damaging. -Dr. Kim Sexual addiction, at its deepest level, is a spiritual issue. A disorder of worship, not to God but to self.- Stephanie Healing does not happen in isolation. You are not meant to be alone in this journey.-Stephanie Forgiveness is a posture of surrender that says, 'I can't fix him. I don't want to fix him.'- Stephanie Your spouse does not define you or your future. As long as God leaves, as long as you get that breath, God's got a plan for you.- Dr. Kim If you're going to get healthy, there has to be boundaries in place. And they have to be consistent.- Dr. Kim Hope chooses faith even in the mess. Questions for Reflection: In what ways have you been tempted to let someone else's choices define your worth, and how can you replace those lies with God's truth about your identity? What is one practical rhythm you can begin this week to stay connected to the Lord as you process pain or grief? How can you recognize the enemy's attempts to attack your marriage or identity, and what steps can you take to guard against them?

I grew up hearing one story: your fertility drops off a cliff at 35. That belief drove me into panic — until I started asking questions. In this episode, I walk you through my 10+ year journey from medical student to naturopathic doctor to a woman who chose her timing — without letting fear run the show.This is a compassionate, evidence-aware look at fertility that combines research, mind-body medicine, and real clinical stories. If timelines have you anxious, if you feel pressured by culture or partners, or if you want practical ways to support your fertility without shame — watch this.

Kelly's insomnia began after the birth of her first child. Sleepless nights quickly turned into panic-filled evenings, anxious days, and a desperate search for fixes that only made things worse. Her turning point came when she realized it wasn't her body that was broken, but the exhausting fight with sleep and her thoughts. By loosening her grip, letting go of rituals, and meeting thoughts with openness, she began to live more freely. When insomnia returned during pregnancy, Kelly chose acceptance over fear. Instead of battling sleepless nights, she allowed them to unfold. The fear eased, sleep returned naturally, and today her life is no longer defined by insomnia. Watch/listen to this episode

In this episode, we break down the strategic urgency of reclaiming Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan. Far from a full-scale invasion, modern technology and drone capabilities make retaking this critical base a precise operation—key for countering terrorist training camps and projecting power across the Middle East and beyond. We explore how the previous Biden administration's withdrawal left the base in the hands of the Taliban and China, the implications for Al Qaeda and emerging terror networks, and why Trump sees Bagram as a linchpin for future operations against Iran's nuclear program. From border security to global military strategy, this episode examines why “doing nothing” is not an option—and how modern warfare changes the game.

This week, Pastor Joe continues our sermon series called Faith Reclaimed by turning 1 Timothy 1:12-17 and inviting us to reimagine regret. What might it mean for us to become guardians of the truth, and not defenders of national ego? What might it mean for us to to allow mercy to meet us in the places we're finally brave enough to name?

For many of us, “the hustle” has become a way of life. Long hours, endless responsibilities, and the constant pressure to do more often come at a cost—our health. Few people know this better than Umashnee Naidoo, who faced the heavy toll of burnout, weight gain, and depression before transforming her life through holistic healing. From Burnout to Breakdown Like so many professionals, Umashnee poured herself into her work. On the outside, she was driven and successful. But inside, the stress of hustle culture was taking its toll. The result was emotional exhaustion, severe depression, and a body carrying 60 extra pounds of weight. It wasn't just about how she looked—it was about how she felt. Every day became a struggle. Choosing a Different Path Umashnee realized that if she didn't make a change, she risked losing more than her health—she risked losing herself. That realization led her to embrace holistic health practices: yoga, meditation, and energy medicine. These weren't quick fixes, but powerful tools that helped her reconnect to her body, calm her mind, and begin the journey of true healing. Through consistency and self-discovery, Umashnee not only shed 60 pounds but also regained her joy, energy, and sense of purpose. Her story is proof that sustainable transformation happens when you address both the mind and the body. The Power of Mind-Body Healing What makes Umashnee's journey so impactful is her focus on the whole person. She learned that depression, weight gain, and burnout are often symptoms of deeper imbalances. By aligning her nutrition, movement, and mindset with her values, she was able to heal from the inside out. Today, she shares her knowledge and experience to help others reclaim their health and happiness. Her story is a reminder that true wellness isn't just about losing weight or following a diet—it's about creating harmony in your life. Lessons for All of Us There are three key takeaways from Umashnee's journey that anyone can apply: Listen to your body. Fatigue, stress, and weight gain are signals, not just inconveniences. Prioritize mental health. Depression and burnout require attention, compassion, and care—not silence. Small, consistent changes matter. Yoga, meditation, and mindful eating create long-term transformation when practiced regularly. Connect with Umashnee If you're ready to step off the treadmill of hustle culture and into a healthier, more balanced life, you'll find Umashnee's work inspiring and practical.

This week, Pastor Joe launches a new sermon series on what it means to reclaim our faith. In this first sermon, he challenges us to understand reconciled relationships not as a way to smooth things over, but as a way to find liberation and justice against the systems that oppress.

Change always feels like loss—until you see what God is making room for.

What does it mean to be human? To navigate a Soul? To learn to heal from Life & its experiences? How can we come to be fully present in our bodies and trust ourselves and our paths? These are question that my guest this week, Kyla Gagnon, is deeply acquainted with. She is a strong advocate for Feminine empowerment and inner strength combined with peace. She wants women to speak all the way up about anything +everything & to know what safety in their body feels like, safety in partnership feels like and safety in FULLY living feels like. Kyla aims to inspire women to disengage from mediocre and step into their wildness. On this Guest episode Kyla tells us about her journey work as a trauma release breathwork facilitator and empowerment coach for women.We discuss her mission to help 1,000,000 women reclaim their power and amplify their lives and how we can all be apart of this mission. She shares about how After a 15 year career as a fitness coach, competitor, model and writer, yoga instructor and retreat leader SOMETHING wsmissing. There was a DEPTH I was craving, and fitness felt limiting and superficial. I found Breathwork in 2019 and everything changed for me , literally overnight. The depth I was seeking was within ME and it took a breathwork journey to open this up for me. I burnt my business to the ground and dove head first into somatics, trauma training and breathwork. Now 6 years later I am HOME, and get to support others in finding this magic within them everyday. BIO:Kyla Gagnon is a somatic Breathwork facilitator and embodiment and empowerment coach for women. She is also a retreat host, and the host of Reclaimed, the podcast. A podcast dedicated to supporting women in reclaiming their power. Kyla's work is rooted in trauma informed nervous system regulation and emotional regulation through a somatic lens (body based vs mind based).She is the founder of Breathe With Kyla, a somatics and BREATHWORK membership for women, and School Of Breath Medicine a breathwork and somatics teacher training program. After 16 years in the fitness industry, it became crystal clear that there had to be something more, something deeper and it's been through conscious connected Breathwork that she has found this depth both within herself and within her clients. It was an immediate and intuitive knowing that this was the direction to take, and after one session she began the process of closing her business of 16 years and stepping fully into somatics and Breathwork. LINKS: Breathe With Kyla Masterclass Membership.  ( use code PODCAST) for 15% off  School Of Breath Medicine January 2026

Brett Miller visits Olde Wood Limited and chats with owner Tommy Sancic about his passion for working with reclaimed hardwood. 

When Saul's army was worn down and facing the Philistines, he made a bold-sounding—but foolish—oath: no one could eat until victory was won. His rash words nearly cost his son Jonathan's life and drained the strength of his people. In this episode, we explore how emotional foolishness shows up in our own words and relationships, and how the gospel makes us secure enough to stay quiet—and brave enough to speak truth in love.

This episode introduces the concept of Success Architecture—the intentional framework that allows healthcare practices to grow predictably and profitably without requiring constant reactive management.

Kingdom Reclaimed – Week 2: Breaking the Walls of IsolationEver tried to “punish” someone by giving them the silent treatment—only to realize the only one hurting was you? That's exactly what isolation does. We think it protects us, but it actually sabotages us.This week in Kingdom Reclaimed, we look at Saul in 1 Samuel 18–20: a king who let jealousy, fear, and insecurity drive him into isolation. Instead of listening, he lashed out—at David, at Jonathan, even at his own future.But there's a better way. In Christ, we don't have to hide, wall ourselves off, or push people away. The gospel gives us the security to be fully known and fully loved—free to risk vulnerability, invite trusted voices in, and build real community.

If you've ever wondered how some people just emanate an aura of radiance, magnetism, & glow, this episode is for you...Because we dive into how you can too -- it's not something outside of yourself that you achieve, but rather an internal transformation that takes place through self-acceptance.Enjoy & make sure to rate the podcast & send to a friend who you know would benefit from this episode

In this solo transmission, Dr. Samuel B. Lee, MD offers a riveting and urgent call for all awakening souls to step out of victim mode and reclaim their divine authorship. With the Earth entering a rare 208,216-year inflection point from 2025–2030, Dr. Lee reveals why old karmic patterns, martyrdom loops, and ancestral trauma are no longer compatible with the ascending morphogenetic field.Through the lens of advanced DNA science and spiritual truth, Dr. Lee explores how trauma becomes embedded in our scalar templates, and how the Christic 12-dimensional light field initiates true cellular transmutation. This is not mindset work — this is the reactivation of your eternal self.He guides listeners through a powerful visualization to help dissolve ancestral karma, override distorted codes, and anchor the Base-12 Eternal Life Blueprint — a pathway to freedom encoded in your very DNA.

We're obsessed with royalty—from fairy tale weddings to royal scandals—but Israel didn't just watch kings, they demanded one. In 1 Samuel 13, Saul's insecurity under pressure cost him more than a battle—it cost him his kingdom. In this episode, we'll unpack how insecurity is like a slow leak that flattens your influence, and how the gospel gives us the security we need to lead with freedom and strength.

“Our dear enemies,” a French writer once called the English. Englishman John Cleese called the French “our natural enemies” and joked “if we have to fight anyone, I say let's fight the French.” With the exception of some (very important) twentieth-century alliances, the French and the English have been at each others' throats for a thousand years. Occasionally this has meant warring over land or religion or rule. But what if the battlefield were limited to the literary? What if supremacy was determined not by the sword but by the pen? In this episode, Jacke and Mike choose their sides and get ready to wage a literary battle between two proud, rivalrous, and highly literate nations.

Ever felt invisible? As if society has decided women of a certain age should gracefully step into the shadows? Martina Gruppo knows this feeling all too well - both from experiencing cultural invisibility in Italy and from years spent with a covert narcissist who methodically dimmed her light and tried to take her power.In this profound conversation, Martina shares her journey from silent suffering to radiant self-reclamation. Her story, captured in her book "Hello Flower," reveals how even the strongest women can become entangled in relationships that slowly strip away their sense of self. With remarkable candor, she describes the perfect storm of early menopause triggered by chemotherapy and a partner who used her vulnerability against her - even suggesting she was "making up" her symptoms.Martina shares her A.A.B method for healing: Acknowledge what you've been through, Allow yourself to feel all emotions, and Build up your self-esteem. Her message resonates beyond those who've experienced narcissistic relationships, speaking to anyone who's ever felt diminished or overlooked. As she beautifully puts it, "It's amazing when you allow yourself - and I say allow because the empowerment is within us - to feel your own empowerment and take control of your life."Bio Martina Gruppo is a writer, survivor, and advocate for women healing from emotional abuse. After over a decade in a marriage marked by covert narcissism and psychological control, she emerged stronger, wiser, and more determined to reclaim her life. Despite appearing outwardly confident, Martina endured years of manipulation disguised as love—a journey she candidly unpacks in her self-published book, Hello Flower (May 2024). Through her story, she sheds light on the devastating reality of coercive control and the importance of boundaries, self-trust, and healing. Today, Martina lives with intention, making empowered choices that reflect her renewed sense of self.

In this week's episode, Lauren is joined by Debbie Lehr, a recent graduate of the DCB coaching program and a type 1 diabetic of 30 years. Though Debbie had always felt in control of her diabetes, a cross-country move and the onset of menopause left her feeling stuck, isolated, and overwhelmed- resulting in her highest A1C ever. After hearing about Risely through her daughter's best friend, Debbie took a leap and joined the program, seeking both support and a fresh start. What followed was a powerful transformation: within three months, Debbie lowered her A1C, stabilized her blood sugars, and found renewed confidence in her management. In this candid conversation, she shares how community, structure, and learning her own patterns helped her go from frustrated to empowered.
