  • Ep.160 - Judith

    Journaliste, chroniqueuse, autrice et animatrice, Judith Lussier porte un regard affûté sur les enjeux de société. Bien qu’elle s’intéresse plus particulièrement aux questions féministes ainsi qu’aux droits des minorités sexuelles et de genre, les différents livres qu’on lui doit, sur les dépanneurs, la procréation assistée, les sports en fauteuil roulant ou le militantisme à l’ère des réseaux sociaux témoignent de la diversité de ses champs d’intérêt. Son plus récent essai, Annulé(e), porte sur la cancel culture, et son balado, Les Sorcières, est disponible via Patreon et les plateformes de diffusion habituelles.

  • Ep.153 - Lesleigh

    Here's Lesleigh in her own words; it was a pleasure having her on!

    "I am trained as a psychotherapist with 4500 hours of clinical work. In 2019, I became certified as an Advanced Grief Recovery Specialist so that I am now qualified to teach my seven-week program online.

    It is both humbling and fulfilling to witness my clients’ transformations from a short-term program that has defined and empowered actionable steps.

    In my lifetime, I have suffered an inordinate amount of personal losses and have chosen to turn my pain into purpose.

    I am a youthful senior who has passions for hot yoga, sushi, meditation, and spirituality."
