In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan sits down with Alisha Esmail from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada to unpack a founder truth most people avoid. Burnout is not a badge, it's a bottleneck. Alisha shares how burning out three times forced her to rebuild her business approach with stronger systems, clearer priorities, and a “harmony over balance” mindset. They break down her Five Tanks Framework (emotional, mental, physical, relational, spiritual) and a practical daily check-in to spot depletion before it snowballs. They also get real about using AI and automation to buy back time without losing the human edge. If you're building a company, leading a team, or just tired of the hustle narrative, this one is a clean reset. About the Guest: Alisha Esmail is a purpose-led founder behind one of Canada's recognized coffee brands and a builder working at the intersection of AI, human performance, and sustainability. She teaches founders how to reduce burnout through systems, clarity, and her Five Tanks Framework. Key Takeaways: Burnout repeats when recovery is treated like a break, not a redesign of how you operate. “Harmony” beats “balance”. Some seasons require intensity, but the system has to pay you back with time later. The line between healthy intensity and overextension is context. Most “emergencies” can wait till tomorrow. Use the “three cards” rule. Limit how often you pull people into after-hours work so you don't burn out the team. Five Tanks Framework is universal: emotional, mental, physical, relational, spiritual. The refill method can vary by personality and season. A fast daily audit works: draw five circles, label the tanks, score each 1 to 10, then act on the lowest tank first. Empty tanks show up as short temper, conflict, anxiety, spiraling thoughts, and feeling out of control. AI should not replace thinking. It should remove repetitive tasks so founders stay in strategy, creativity, and leadership. Practical AI win: rewrite intense messages to reduce conflict and prevent “emotional shrapnel” in relationships. Scarcity is not a reason to self-destruct. It can be a forcing function for creativity and smarter leverage. Clarity kills chaos: define your real end goal, then work backward instead of sprinting toward a vague “success.” Community Guidelines Check (YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn): Not violating.

Episode No. 736 features artist Dyani White Hawk. The Walker Art Center in Minneapolis is presenting "Dyani White Hawk: Love Language," a 15-year survey of White Hawk's career. The exhibition spotlights how White Hawk (Sičáŋǧu Lakota) has foregrounded Lakota forms and motifs to challenge prevailing histories and practices around abstract art. The exhibition was curated by Siri Engberg and Tarah Hogue with Brandon Eng. The Walker has published an excellent catalogue; Amazon and Bookshop offer it for around $50. After closing at the Walker on February 15, "Love Language" will travel to the Remai Modern in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. White Hawk's work is in the collection of institutions such as the Walker, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York; the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Smithsonian Institution, Washington; the Museum of Modern Art, New York; and the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. White Hawk was previously a guest on Episode No. 610 of The MAN Podcast. Instagram: Dyani White Hawk, Tyler Green. Air date: December 11, 2025.
This week, stories of people racing to save something before it disappears completely.For most of his life, Gerry Smerchanski has watched the stars from his property in the small town of Teulon, Manitoba. But now the town has grown up around his home, and the amateur astronomer's night sky is disappearing because of light pollution. Find out how he's fighting to preserve the night sky, and why it matters.After looking all over her Saskatoon home, Barb Rudoski finally found her old wedding video from 1991. Now that she's transferred the VHS to digital, she's finally able to take her daughters back in time to the big hair, shoulder pads, and 90s-tastic realness of her wedding day, with hilarious results. Where have all the male friendships gone? According to Statistics Canada, we're seeing our friends less often, and have fewer close friends to confide in — and this is especially true for men. Find out how something called the "Wednesday Waffle" is helping Justin, Arman, Sawyer and Mike of the Toronto Dingos Aussie-rules football club stay connected, after suffering a devastating loss on their team.Life in the small town of Flatrock, N.L. used to revolve around the church — until it was put up for sale. Although they couldn't save their beloved church, Sonya Power-Parsons and a group of volunteers now dedicate much of their lives to reviving the community cemetery where generations of family members are laid to rest, a place that was also at risk of disappearing forever.And what happens when you're a little too good at saving things? When her living room was so filled with boxes that there was only a narrow path left to walk through, Colleen Peters knew something needed to change. Hear the tips and tricks that helped her face her collecting problem.Isabell Weitman has always loved creating, but she turned to art as her creative outlet when she was diagnosed with a nervous system disorder and wasn't able to work. The BC-based artist creates beautifully eerie pieces using items that a lot of us would never think of saving, including bones, dead insects and dried flowers, plants and fruits. And she recently found an artistic collaborator — an orb weaver spider named Gary, whose webs have become the focal point of Isabell's works.
Kyle Danylyshen is one of four residents living in one of Elmwood Residences' community homes for people with intellectual disabilities. For 56 years, Elmwood has supported individuals experiencing intellectual disabilities with the care and services they need to live full and meaningful lives. The organization operates 15 community homes in Saskatoon.

Kyle has lived here since 2021, and one of his best friends is his roommate, Tiernan Huber, who moved in last August.

In today's episode of Moony Birth Stories, we welcome Alyssa from Saskatoon as she shares the pregnancy and birth stories of her two children, Amelia & Theodore. Alyssa's first birth was a hospital birth under the care of a midwife. She initially felt very fearful of birth, but after diving deep into research she planned for a hospital water birth. Alyssa unfortunately had a negative experience with her first doula but thankfully had the support of her midwife and husband. Alyssa goes on to share her experience with oral ties. Alyssa's plan for her second birth remained the same as with her first and this time they hired a doula that was more aligned with them. Alyssa went on to have another incredible hospital water birth. She experienced a significant amount of bleeding postpartum which led to another hospital visit. Take a listen as we chat about the incredible care midwives offer, holistic birth, and MORE!

Sydney doesn't put away its party hats after the New Year is rung in, because from January 8, the city comes alive once again for the Sydney Festival. Simon Moore sat down with new Festival Director Kris Nelson to provide some highlights of the upcoming festival and revealing his hopes and ambitions for it as it reaches half a century.Festivals are very much in Kris Nelson's blood, having just finished a six-and-a-half year stint as Director of the London International Festival of Theatre, and prior to that having a long run as Director of the Dublin Fringe Festival. Kris traces his personal and professional journey, from growing up in Saskatoon, Canada, through grassroots theatre and festivals, to leadership roles in Montreal and beyond. He reflects on the energy of fringe culture, and the joys of presenting unique shows that find the festival environment as their homes.The Sydney Festival runs from 8 to 25 January.
Imagine being at Shoppers Drug Mart to mail some parcels when a masked man enters the store with a weapon, yelling at the clerk to open the till. A Saskatoon woman shares her eye-witness account just as Saskatoon police launch their quarterly “retail blitz” to target increasingly violent shoplifters, who often use knives, bear spray and bats to steal items.
Evan catches up with Saskatoon's Chief of Police, Cam McBride, to talk local crime statistics, how the city is doing in 2025 and what information people in Saskatchewan should be aware of.
Good day ladies and gentlemen, this is IRC news, I am Joy Stephen, a certified Canadian Immigration practitioner, and I bring to you this Provincial News Bulletin from the province of Saskatchewan. This recording originates from the Polinsys studios in Cambridge, Ontario.

"Saskatchewan is set to finish 2025 with one of the strongest labour markets in Canada," Deputy Premier and Immigration and Career Training Minister Jim Reiter said. "We have had an incredible year of growth. Saskatchewan employers have created thousands of new jobs and we have maintained one of the lowest unemployment rates in the nation. Our government is ensuring our province remains attractive not only to capital investment but for people who want a vibrant province to call home" Year-over-year, employment for women is up 11,300, an increase of 4.0 per cent, and employment for men is up 5,200 an increase of 1.6 per cent.

25 marca 2015 roku w kanadyjskim Saskatoon przy jednej z dróg znaleziono ciało 18-letniej Brittney Gargol. Początkowo policja miała niewiele tropów i przez wiele miesięcy okoliczności śmierci dziewczyny pozostawały zagadką. W końcu w sprawie nastąpił przełom - za sprawę zdjęcia w mediach społecznościowych. Na Facebooku śledczy natrafili na zdjęcie, które Brittney opublikowała tuż przed śmiercią i na tej fotografii znajdowało się nie tylko narzędzie zbrodni, ale i sprawca.

Later this week, Pope Leo XIV begins his first international apostolic visit: a six-day trip to Turkey and Lebanon from November 27 to December 2. At the center of that journey is his stop in Nicaea—today the town of İznik—where the first ecumenical council (325 A.D.) set down the Nicene Creed, the profession of faith that has united Christians for seventeen centuries. Pope Francis had hoped to make this pilgrimage in May; now, Pope Leo is taking up the mantle. We're re-running our deep dive episode on Nicaea today—originally published before Pope Francis' death. It explores the history of Nicaea and its ongoing importance for Christians, particularly in working toward a common Easter date. In the show's introduction, producer Ricardo da Silva, S.J., updates listeners on Pope Leo's new document on Christian unity, released to commemorate the council's anniversary, and on a recently issued doctrinal note on monogamy from the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith. In the deep dive, you'll hear from: Aristotle (Telly) Papanikolaou, Professor of Theology and the Archbishop Demetrios Chair in Orthodox Theology and Culture at Fordham University John Chryssavgis, deacon of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America and archdeacon of the Ecumenical Patriarchate Donald Bolen, Archbishop of Regina in Canada and a member of the Vatican Dicastery for Promoting Christian Unity Married professors Ben Hohman, a Roman Catholic, and Claire Koen, an Eastern Orthodox Christian Sandra Beardsall, Professor Emerita of Church History and Ecumenics at St. Andrew's College in Saskatoon, Canada, an ordained United Church minister and a member of the World Council of Churches' Faith and Order Commission Support Inside the Vatican by subscribing to America Magazine!

Health, Inspirational, Lifestyle, The Breggin Hour https://mega.nz/file/kohiiTLT#TG7leWXo2KZ6-mcsCxE69WbTImhUclncPTS9ir0t0I4 Acar accident, a stroke, a virulent infection, a broken hip…. may you never have to go to a hospital. We all swear we will never go—but then something happens and the next thing you know, you are in an ambulance. On The Breggin Hour, we had the great pleasure of talking with one of the most sensitive gentlemen we know—Dr. Francis Christian, who is for more than 30 years a physician, trauma surgeon, and poet. Dr. Christian was also one of the ethical and courageous physicians in Canada who spoke out very early against the COVID vaccine rollout—calling for genuine informed consent. Despite working in a remote region of Saskatoon, the psychological operations intent on silencing dissent and criticism found him, and he was fired from his position with the University of Saskatchewan, College of Medicine. Dr. Christian has continued to speak truthfully about the vaccine dangers and is an eloquent advocate for patients, scientific medical practice, and medical ethics. Additionally, Dr. Christian has written and had published a book of poems, To A Nurse Friend, Weeping. The two physicians, Dr. Peter Breggin and Dr. Francis Christian, had a thoughtful and in-depth conversation ranging from medical ethics to each of their personal experiences in hospitals this year. Their discussion focused on healthcare experiences, particularly on hospital care and the role of hospitalists. Peter and Ginger shared their challenging experience with Peter's hospitalization, including issues with a robot-like monitoring system and medication side effects. Dr. Christian, who has a Substack newsletter, discussed his own experience advocating for his granddaughter's care in the hospital and emphasized that patients need to be their own best advocates. The conversation highlighted concerns about modern hospital practices, including the emphasis on quick patient turnover and the challenges posed by hospitalists and rotating medical staff. Hospitalists are full-time medical staff who have replaced personal physicians, who used to admit their patients into the hospital and then further oversee their treatment while hospitalized. Now, personal physicians have no contact or responsibility for their hospitalized patients who become managed by strangers who feel and have more allegiance to institutional rules and norms than to individual patients. Dr. Breggin and Dr. Christian describe their own personal frustrations trying to advocate for the safety and proper treatment of their families and themselves, and lament how much more difficult it is for nonmedical people to protect themselves and their families in a hospital setting.

Ukrainian officials are pushing back on a purported peace plan that would require major concessions to Russia. A former American ambassador to Ukraine tells us Kyiv won't accept any deal that looks like surrender. A paramedic in Saskatoon tells us a toxic drug supply caused more than a hundred overdoses in just seven days -- and that crisis has also taken a toll on first responders. An Indigenous woman whose mother lost her status for marrying a non-Indigenous man celebrates a change meant to ensure that status passes through generations -- regardless of who you marry. An Oxford University biologist traces the history of the kiss -- and finds that the ancestors of humans and other large apes were locking lips at least 16 million years ago. When an NBA rookie's parents suggested he invite some friends over for dinner, they weren't expecting the whole Charlotte Hornets roster to turn up.We hate a mosquito's proboscis when it's sucking our blood -- but we love a mosquito's proboscis when scientists take it off the mosquito, and use it as a nozzle in a 3D printer.

Welcome to Saskatoon Fire and Flood. It's a Friday afternoon and Brennen Mills is showing me and my photographer, Rona Andreas, around the building. It's a really impressive space full of tools and equipment designed to help people recover from an incident such as a house fire. I feel lucky to say I have never had to call on Brennen and his team for their help. In fact, Brennen was not on my radar for podcast guests until his colleague, Candace Chickowski nominated him through the YXE Underground website. Her email was compelling and it really got me thinking of how important communication is in Brennen's line of work. Here is a portion of Candace's email that really connected with me and got this episode in motion. Brennen was born and raised in Saskatchewan's construction industry. He knows this work inside and out, but what makes him different is his ability to see the human side of it. We deal with people going through some of the hardest days of their lives, fires, floods, and major loss and Brennen never lets us forget that we're not just fixing buildings; we're helping people get their lives back. Helping those in need and giving back to the community are priorities in Brennen's leadership style and his personal life. He is the Vice-Chair of the Saskatoon Public Schools Foundation and his willingness is volunteer his time and energy led the SPSF to recognize Brennen and Saskatoon Fire and Flood at this month's National Philanthropy Day. Here's the thing about Brennen; he would rather talk about anything else than himself, which made for some very funny moments in our conversation when I would press him for a story.

It's a rainy day in Birderland. It's October 30, 2025 and I am writing this on night before Halloween. I won't claim that this is going to be a spooky episode, but there are one or two scary birding stories from our guest Liam Ragan. Liam broke the record for a Vancouver Island, British Columbia Big Year, but beyond that, he does a lot of fine conservation work out west, for the Rocky Point Bird Observatory. His job gave him the freedom to travel around the island while also allowing him to go after his Vancouver Island Big Year record. But enough about Liam. Time to get back to me. As you may have ascertained, I just love talking about birds and myself, not necessarily in that order. If I didn't cut out all of my personal stories, these podcasts would be twice as long, and nobody wants that. That being said, and the reason for a two month gap between episodes, is that I have been on the road birding nearly every day since the end of August. On August 29, I finally got my first Wilson's Warbler of the year at Long Point and later that afternoon a Buff-breasted Sandpiper at in the sod fields of Brant County. A week later I was back at the Long Point Field Staton for a very rare Townsend's Warbler. That same afternoon I rushed to Staynor, Ontario for a Ruff. All the while I was planning my trip out west to see the Whooping Crane migration for the first time, in Saskatchewan. That had been a dream trip of mine since beginning birding in 2012. I had seen Whooping Cranes where they winter in Texas, in Wood Buffalo National Park, where they breed in Northern Alberta and in between, a couple of others in Florida and Michigan. Finally, on September 30, 2025, after a four day drive, I saw my first flock of migrating Whooping Cranes in North Battleford, Saskatchewan, just north of Saskatoon. I met up with my friend Gavin McKinnon and his birding group and we all got to enjoy these marvelous, but endangered birds. I then headed down to Grasslands National Park, but made a stop in Swift Current for a Broad-billed Hummingbird that had been visiting feeders and Josie's back yard. This bird went north instead of south and was enjoying the cool autumn weather of southern Saskatchewan. Alas, it's fate is unknown, as it likely never found its way back to the southern United States. The next morning I got to Grasslands National Park as the sun was coming up and after an hour found what might have been the last remaining Burrowing Owl in the park. The rest had headed south for the winter. Back in Ontario, I've been seeing fall specialties like Red Phalarope and Nelson's Sparrow and chasing rarities like Purple Gallinule, Western Cattle-Egret and Little Blue Heron. With those birds I surpassed my best Ontario species count ever. We also had two super rare birds, a Graces Warbler, which I was a day late for in Algonquin Provincial Park and a Gray Kingbird in Chatham-Kent. I wasted no time with that one and raced down the highway to see it. A new Lifer for both my Ontario,(386) and Canada,(496) lists. I am exhausted from all the driving, chasing and even just recounting of these stories, not to mention editing this very podcast. So, it's time to relax, clear your mind of birds and chases and lists and such and listen to Liam Ragan's story of his Vancouver Island Big Year, where he will recount his stories of birds and chases and lists and such on this very podcast. He even has a few scary tales from the west coast of Canada, as is fitting for a Halloween episode. So, Happy Halloween, happy birding, and may the Ravens and crows stay away from your eyeballs, while you enjoy yet another episode of The Big Year Podcast.

According to the latest data from the Canadian Real Estate Association, national home sales declined by 1.7% month-over-month in September, ending a string of steady gains that began in the spring. Even so, this was still the strongest September for sales since 2021. On a year-over-year basis, transactions were up 5.2%, while both new listings and total active listings fell 0.8%. That left just 4.4 months of inventory available nationwide — the lowest level since January, and below the long-term average of five months.The Home Price Index dropped 0.1% month-over-month and is now down 3.4% year-over-year. Average prices, meanwhile, rose a modest 0.7% compared to last year. Regionally, B.C. and Ontario are the only provinces still showing price declines, while every other province posted gains. Yukon led the pack with a 13.4% annual price increase.But when you adjust for inflation and measure from the February 2022 peak, the story changes dramatically. Real home prices in Canada are now down roughly 29%. In nominal terms, they're down 18%. Hamilton has taken the biggest hit—down about 40% after inflation—followed by the GTA and then Vancouver, which is sitting around a 20% real decline. On the flip side, Greater Moncton and Saskatoon are actually up roughly 19% nominal, or about 8% in real terms, since that same peak.The widening gap between new listings and completed sales continues to point toward more downward pressure on prices ahead. And even though affordability has “improved” from the record-breaking lows of 2024, it remains completely out of reach for most Canadians. In Vancouver, the monthly mortgage payment on a median-priced home still eats up about 87% of the median household income — a figure that's almost comically unsustainable.So where does that leave us heading into the final stretch of 2025? Will collapsing affordability finally force the next rate cut — or will the Bank hold the line, freezing the market even further? We break it all down — from record-level mortgage exposure to the cities where prices have quietly crashed 40%.This episode also marks a huge milestone — Episode 300 of The Vancouver Life Real Estate Podcast.

In 2006, a construction crew in Saskatoon unearthed a barrel hidden in an abandoned well, containing the preserved remains of a young woman murdered a century earlier. For nearly twenty years she was known only as The Woman in the Well, as police tried facial reconstructions, DNA testing, and countless appeals for clues. With the help of investigative genetic genealogy, her identity has finally been revealed: Alice Spence, a seamstress, wife, and mother. This episode of Canadian Gothic traces Alice's life, her erasure, and the modern science that brought her back into memory.
