About Leela Aheer   Hon. Leela Sharon Aheer was first elected as a Member of Alberta's Legislative Assembly for the Chestermere-Rocky View constituency on May 5, 2015.  She was re-elected on April 16, 2019, as the MLA for the newly formed riding of Chestermere-Strathmore.  Born in Edmonton and raised in Chestermere, where she raised her family, Aheer is a proud wife and mother of two amazing young men.  She is also a professional singer, vocal coach, and music teacher, instructing singing in seven languages.  Her passion for music led her to own and operate a successful music studio for twenty-four years in Chestermere and Calgary, where she was heavily involved in arts, volunteerism, and community service.  As Minister of Culture, Multiculturalism and Status of Women (2019 - 2021), Hon. Aheer made significant strides in promoting multiculturalism and women's status.  Her proclamation of Women's Entrepreneurship Day in February 2019 was a historic moment for Canada.  She was the first Minister of Multiculturalism in the last twenty-five years and the first Deputy Leader of the United Conservative Party.   A key priority of the new government was to provide more protections for women through initiatives like Clare's Law.    Hon. Aheer has worked tirelessly to affirm her position as an ally within the Alberta Legislature for those seeking shelter from gender-based violence, racism, and female genital mutilation.  In May of 2022, her work on this matter came to fruition when The Health Professions (Protecting Women and Girls) Amendment Act, 2022, a Bill she championed in the Legislature, earned Royal Assent.  This significant achievement is a testament to her commitment to social justice.  MLA Aheer is renowned in her community and among her peers for her strategic insights and ability to build meaningful partnerships.  Hon Aheer was appointed Senior Director of Strategy and Partnerships with BioAro Inc., a precision health and longevity medicine leader, in July 2024.  She was also appointed the BioSport Chief Growth Officer. Her visionary approach and commitment to the public are invaluable in navigating the complexities of global health markets.  Episode Notes  00:00 Introduction 12:31 Lesson 1: Love Boldly, Even When It's Tough 15:59 Lesson 2: Silence Speaks Volumes that Connects 19:08 Lesson 3: You Are Not What Happened To You 23:49 Lesson 4: Courage Isn't Always Loud 28:11 Lesson 5: Stay Open to Unexpected Turns 29:39 Affiliate Break 30:04 Lesson 6: Children Teach Us More Than Books 35:28 Lesson 7: Forgive to Free Yourself 39:10 Lesson 8: Purpose is Built, Not Found 41:37 Lesson 9: Speak Up, or Be Defined by Others 47:10 Lesson 10: Gratitude is a Game Changer

What makes some people heal faster than others?And how can you use that information to speed up your own healing process? Since healing myself in 2018, I've worked with hundreds of men and women — in my clinic and online — to find and fix the root causes behind their gut, skin, sinus, hormone, and autoimmune issues. And after working with all these clients, I started asking myself: what made the difference that helps some clients heal fast, while others healed slow? Was it random who healed quickly? Or was it from invisible, uncontrollable factors like their genes? Turns out—it wasn't random. And it definitely wasn't genetics. There were clear, repeatable habits my fastest-healing clients shared. Today, I'm breaking down the top 3 things my most successful clients do to heal their gut FAST—so you can do the same.

We all carry invisible chains: beliefs like "I'm not enough," "I'm not ready," or "What if I fail?" The real cage isn't the world around us; it's the story we've been told about who we're allowed to be. Because freedom doesn't come from trying harder, proving more, or fitting into someone else's mold, it comes from letting go. In this Language of Love Conversation, I sit down with Jennifer Pastiloff, author and speaker, whose new book Proof of Life explores the powerful act of reclaiming permission to exist fully in your own body, voice, and life. After years of self-doubt, shame, and self-abandonment, Jennifer shares how healing began with learning to speak her truth out loud. We dive into Jennifer's journey of self-discovery, which was shaped by moments of struggle, loss, and personal awakening. In this Conversation, we explore:  How to recognize your “inner asshole” and stop believing its lies Why speaking your truth out loud is where healing begins What “heart-sight” means and how to listen to it The trap of “when I get there, then I'll be happy” How making bad art can actually set you free Why finding your “I got you” people changes everything The lesson grief teaches us about living now, not later If you've ever struggled with shame or felt disconnected from yourself, this conversation is a beacon back home. Remember to check out Jennifer's book, Proof of Life: Let Go, Let Love, and Stop Looking for Permission to Live Your Life, now available on Amazon.

In this intimate face-to-face conversation, Kavi and Amoda explore one of the most vital themes of the spiritual path—openness. What does it truly mean to stay open when life hurts, when fear arises, when the ego contracts in self-protection? Why is openness central to freedom and not merely a psychological tool? With clarity, tenderness, and depth, they examine how our culture teaches closure and how the path of awakening is a journey into the radiance of being, which is always open. This conversation points to the heart of non-dual realization, while also offering gentle guidance for those still navigating emotional contraction, fear, and the longing for peace. Whether you're a long-time seeker or just beginning, this dialogue offers a bridge between the human struggle and the timeless ground of awareness.

Pat explains how Nugent and Dear Leader Trump are very much alike, and not in flattering ways. Pat then talks about how nearly half of Detroit's apartment complexes are without air conditioning, and Michigan's high unemployment rate. He concludes by underlining the big time victory of Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani in the NYC mayoral race, and how it's yet another example of how progressive economic populism is not only popular, but it WINS elections! 20:29-42:23: Derrell Slaughter of NRDC-Michigan Interview Derrell Slaughter is the Michigan Policy Director for Climate & Energy at the Natural Resources Defense Council.

Slaughter explains why this unprecedented move will cost Michiganders both economically and environmentally. 42:24-48:04: Last Call on Unhinged Democrats The "Last Call" this week spotlights those Democrats who view progressive Democrats, like Zohran Mamdani, as more of an enemy than they view MAGA Republicans as the real opposition to the working class, to liberty, and to democracy.  48:05-50:30: Ending Please, subscribe to the podcast, download each episode, and give it a good review if you can! leftoflansing@gmail.com Left of Lansing is now on YouTube as well! leftoflansing.com NOTES: "Trump Administration's DOE Is Forcing Coal Plants to Stay Open.

Moses Williams (SO/SP 5w6 513) returns for a third and unexpected installment. After the emotional closing of our last conversation, the relationship he spoke about fell apart, and Moses recorded this solo reflection as a final statement. It's part post-mortem, part self-reckoning, and it is beautifully 5: heady, searching, at times heartbreakingly tender.

With an innate eye for detail and an unwavering commitment to excellence, Starr has transformed her passion for beauty into a thriving career that spans hair, makeup, and the intricate art of brow design. Born and raised in San Diego, California, Starr's journey into beauty began at an early age, influenced by the dazzling world of pageantry. Her curiosity and natural talent led her to refine her skills in hair styling and makeup artistry long before she stepped into the professional space. By her teenage years, she was already styling hair for friends and adult clients alike, demonstrating an unparalleled dedication to her craft. Her career took a transformative turn when she joined MAC Cosmetics - a brand that not only shaped her technical expertise but also introduced her to the world of high fashion, editorial artistry, and corporate professionalism. She became a key figure in the industry, opening MAC's first Harlem store and later working in the elite Flatiron District showroom, where she collaborated with some of the most influential names in beauty and fashion. Working alongside legends such as Charlotte Tilbury and Pat McGrath at New York Fashion Week refined her artistry and deepened her passion for creating beauty that transcends trends. While her expertise spans multiple disciplines, Starr found her true calling in brow artistry. Her innovative approach to eyebrows goes beyond shaping - she sees brows as an expression of identity, confidence, and self-assurance. Through years of refining her technique, she has mastered nano artistry, a cutting-edge approach to permanent makeup that enhances natural beauty with precision and elegance. Her philosophy is simple yet profound: beauty should complement, not overpower. Her work is celebrated for its ability to bring out the best in each individual, seamlessly blending artistry with authenticity. In 2021, Starr took a bold step in her journey and founded Blackshere Beauty, a premier beauty studio dedicated to offering top-tier services in makeup, lashes, and brows.   She believes that creativity thrives in an environment of passion and fulfillment, and she instills this philosophy into every aspect of her work. For Starr, success isn't measured solely by accolades or financial milestones - it's found in the joy of creating, the confidence of her clients, and the lasting impact of her artistry. Through her journey, she has proven that with dedication, adaptability, and a fearless pursuit of passion, the possibilities are limitless.    Key Takeaways 1. Find Your Niche and Own It – Starr explored multiple areas of beauty before discovering her true passion for brow artistry. Your journey may take different paths, but once you find your calling, commit to mastering it. 2.

Growth comes from embracing change and staying curious about your craft. 3.

If you want to elevate your career, be willing to take bold steps. 4. Persistence Opens Doors – Starr's journey to MAC wasn't guaranteed, but she prepared, strategized, and positioned herself for success. Keep showing up, refining your skills, and opportunities will follow. 5. Attention to Detail Sets You Apart – Whether it's shaping brows or enhancing a face with makeup, Starr's precision and artistry have made her stand out. The little details can make a big impact in your work. 6. Confidence and Professionalism Are Key – Breaking into new spaces requires more than just talent.

Protect Your Joy and Passion – Success isn't just about money or accolades; it's about finding joy in your work. Starr believes that happiness fuels creativity, and staying passionate is the ultimate key to long-term success.    Quotes 1. “Success as a creative isn't about how much money you make or how many jobs you have - it's about protecting your joy. When you find joy in your craft, creativity flows effortlessly.” 2. “Your journey will have twists and turns, but every experience, good or bad, teaches you something valuable. Stay open, stay learning, and keep evolving.” 3. “Confidence comes from preparation. If you want an opportunity, do the work, sharpen your skills, and show up ready. When the door opens, you'll be prepared to walk through it.” 4. “Excellence is in the details. Whether it's brows, makeup, or business. Refining the small things sets you apart and turns good work into great work.” Connect with Starr Website -  www.Blacksherebeauty.com Instagram -  Instagram.com/Blacksherebeauty Facebook -   Facebook.Com/Blacksherebeautyllc Email - Starr.blackshere@gmail.Com

In today's episode of Notable Leaders' Radio, I explore strategies for designing the next chapter of your career and life in a constantly evolving marketplace. We dive into building powerful networks and uncovering the areas of learning that will enhance your relevance and impact. In this episode, we discuss: The Power of Releasing the Outcome: Shifting your focus from specific outcomes to purposeful actions can free you from the stress of rigid expectations. This mindset not only reduces pressure but also creates space for unexpected and rewarding opportunities, transforming how you approach both challenges and successes. Building Authentic Connections with Ease: Meaningful relationships develop over time through genuine interactions, not transactional exchanges. By allowing connections to flourish naturally without immediate expectations, you can cultivate a powerful network that brings unforeseen opportunities to your professional and personal life. Embracing Lifelong Learning and Experimentation: In rapidly shifting industries, relevance requires an unyielding commitment to growth and adaptation. Embracing new learning experiences with an open mind positions you to thrive amidst change, turning challenges into catalysts for advancement. Transforming Setbacks into Strategic Insights: Perceived failures are, in fact, your greatest assets on the path to higher success. Each setback provides valuable data and insights for course correction. By detaching self-worth from specific outcomes, you can maintain emotional resilience and strategic clarity. Commit to Action, Stay Open to Outcomes: The journey to your goals is where true fulfillment lies. Maintaining commitment to purposeful actions while embracing diverse outcomes ensures a rewarding experience, regardless of how the specifics unfold. Tune in to discover how to elevate your career trajectory with intention, resilience, and a mindset open to limitless possibilities.
