Wellness is much more than merely physical health, exercise or nutrition. It is the full integration of physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being. And this is precisely one of the pillars of Vitality Health Wellness & Beauty, co-owned by Valter Feleja, who joins me today for another episode of Real Talk.

During the pandemic, Valter created a much-needed wellness program for men, and this is the Real Talk for this episode. Find out what Valter has to share with us, how the pandemic inspired him to create something so important when it come to wellness.

Here’s a question I have for you: have you ever walked into a room full of vibrant, bubbly and smiley people and instantly felt positive? That’s because as human beings other people’s emotions will affect us and will have an impact on the way we feel. That’s why the most successful people tend to be those who are happy, healthy and have a positive approach to life. This is what Real Talk is all about this week. Enjoy!

Any life is a life of change, as change is a constant. How do you deal with it? Are you a person that panics at every shift that happens in your life? Or do embrace change as something is meant to be?

Accepting change within your mindfulness practices can have an extremely positive effect on your ability to deal with change in your day-to-day life. How do you accomplish it? Watch this episode of the Real Talk!

Are you having awful days? Do you feel like everything is just going against you?

If that’s the case, have you stopped to ask yourself: what is the universe teaching you?

Gratitude is key to changing our life for better. It allows us to notice our blessings and create balance from life’s difficulties. This is the topic of this episode of Real Talk. Hope you enjoy it.

This week’s Real Talk is with the President of Centum Canada, Chris Turcotte. When it comes to mortgages, Centum is a family business with franchises owned by families and for whom integrity and trust are everything.  With innovation, work ethic, and making decisions with his network and customers in mind, Chris acquired Centum a few years ago and took it to a whole new level. Let’s find out what motivated Chris to acquire Centum and to innovate it to what it is today!

In a world of perfect angles on social media, of perfect life styles being thrown at us on a constant basis, we often feel isolated and lost with our own struggles. 

I often hear people ask me “how can you stay so positive?”, as if I don’t have struggles to overcome. So, here’s the Real Talk for this episode: how to overcome struggles. 

I recently posted about my miscarriage as a way to show that I am not perfect, nor should I be. No one is meant to be perfect. Much to my surprise, many women reached out to me to express they too had to go through a similar situation. The truth is, as female leaders, we also struggle with the concern of always having to compete with the male side of the business. What we often forget is that they too have their own struggles. Regardless of status, everyone, as humans, goes through similar emotions. The way you deal with them is what makes the difference. 

So, how do we overcome struggles? Watch this episode of Real Talk. 

In the world of mortgages, one of the key aspects is to be willing to walk a path of positivity, confidence and teamwork.

That’s the main theme of this episode of Real Talk, this one with Dee Sgro. Dee was the first one to start this adventure with me, as a mortgage agent and my assistant. Over the years, she has walked this path and learned to become a leader in charge of her own team. Her story is inspirational and one I am sharing with you here on this episode.

What are some issues affecting the mortgage industry?

There is talk about bullying and sexual harassment in the mortgage industry as we know it. There seems to be this idea that if someone has money, if someone is a top producer, it’s easier to become a bully. On the other hand, there is also a lack of respect for female leadership. If in the 21st century anyone lacks respect for a female leader, that’s a different story.

So, what is my opinion on sexual harassment, bullying or lack of respect for female leaders? Listen to this episode of Real Talk to find out and to learn about one of the topics I am really passionate about.

Research - here’s a term we all should focus on more and more! In a society where people just seem to think that their opinion is “the truth”, we should be really looking into fact checking everything we say, whether at a professional or personal level. This episode of Real Talk with Carmen Costa is all about this and so much more.
