Frankie Holness who was first diagnosed with breast cancer in January 2021 and learned that it was metastatic breast cancer shortly thereafter. COVID-19 has played a role in her entire journey with mBC. She joins me today to share details about her journey through a medical system that is under pressure. Kelly Bos, is a psychotherapist, and co-host of the podcast talktherapypod. Kelly joins me to discuss the loss of civility, and more importantly how to bring it back. With family and friends gathering again, it’s important we remember how to interact without losing our cool over contentious issues. Anne Brodie joins me with an action packed week in entertainment starting with Kristen Stewart who is absolutely freakishly Diana Princess of Wales in the imagined and much-anticipated biopic Spencer. Plus a look at Tom Hanks as Finch, the lone survivor of an apocalyptic environmental disaster that erased all known life except him and his dog Goodyear, and 13 minutes, a throwback to the old days when natural disaster films swept the multiplexes. We are on the 7th of 8 masterclasses on Personal Finance with Meridian Credit Union, and today Teresa Valenti joins me to share 10 of the biggest mistakes women make during a divorce. You definitely want to stick around for this interview because the information Teresa brings is invaluable. Every woman going through a divorce should know to avoid these all too common missteps. Our relationship with work has changed drastically through this pandemic and not only are employees pushing back against the status quo, but employers are shaking things up as well.

My final guest of this week’s show just released her 5th studio album Fight Left In Me on November 4th which takes a deep dive into the nooks & crannies, and under the radar experiences of(mostly) women who are at a time of their life when their own personal identity is often tangled up with those around them.
