Boundaries are limits you set for the kind of behaviour you will accept from others and what others will accept from your behaviours.

Liana takes us through the Top 10 Boundary-Busting Behaviours and how we can course-correct for better outcomes in life

"If you’re anything like me, you’re tired of folding yourself into a neat little box with clean descriptors that make linear sense. Women’s lives and experiences just aren’t like that.

Lots to listen to for both women and men.

As people have pointed out, the word 'diet' begins with 'die' - society's unhealthy focus on a person's weight has killed the self-esteem of too many men and women - too often with fatal results. The 'diet culture' messaging that bombards us is based in outdated attitudes, racial biases, perceptions of wealth and commerce. Liana talks about the problem and solutions with Carolyn Karoll, a licensed therapist, author and authority on eating disorders and body image.

When many people lean on you for emotional support, who do you lean on? This is a question that caregivers and members of the clergy wrestle with every day. US Army Lt.

Canada's first female mayor, Dr. Charlotte Witten, said “Whatever women do they must do twice as well as men to be thought half as good. Luckily, this is not difficult.” With respect to Dr. Witten - yes, it really is. Dated perspectives often punish women for the very thoughts and behaviours men are celebrated for.
