This week on Finding Your Bliss, Celebrity Interviewer and Bliss Coach Judy Librach is joined by Runway and Cover model Sarah Tahseen.

Sarah Tahseen started modelling when she was in her twenties. She stopped shortly thereafter when she had a family. And then, when she turned 50, she decided to give it another go and this time for REAL! In 2023, she attended Coco Rocha’s model camp and she has been actively modelling ever since. She mainly shoots fashion, but she also enjoys runway work. She’s an actor too, so keep an eye out for her because you definitely will be seeing her on the big screen! Her photos have been published in various magazines and she has walked the runways in Toronto, New York, Milan, Paris and Miami.

When Sarah’s not slaying it on the runway, or in front of the camera, she’s coaching models. She’s teaching the necessary techniques so that they can thrive in this competitive industry. 

She loves being in front of a camera and enjoys working with photographers who share her passion and creative approach. She’s excited and proud to represent herself as a mature model, as well as her demographic of ladies who are 50+ and fabulous.  As she says  “Age is just a number and fabulous is eternal.”

Also on the program, we have super-talented singer/songwriter Shanaya Patel!

Born with an innate gift for captivating audiences, the 22-year-old sensation, Shanaya Patel, is more than an artist; she's a mesmerizing storyteller. The Mississauga-born muse, of South Asian descent, weaves her magic through the realms of pop music. Shanaya’s musical journey kicked off at the young age of 6, when she already became hooked on performing. At 11, she began crafting personal stories into melodies, establishing the groundwork for her distinct musical identity.

In a world inspired by Ariana Grande, Alicia Keys and JP Saxe, Shanaya's deep vocals and piano artistry create a vibe that's pure enchantment. Her YouTube cover of Julia Michaels’ "Issues," earned her 4.1 million votes for her MTV "Cover of the Month" nomination in 2017. Notably, in 2022, Shanaya signed with daCosta Talent, fortifying her presence in the ever-evolving landscape of the entertainment industry and embarking on her journey through the world of voiceover and on-camera acting.

With 70k+ streams across all platforms, tracks like "Not Bitter" (May 2023) and the summer bop, "Good Company"(July 2023) mark milestones in Shanaya’s career. The singer, songwriter and actor has performed at the likes of The Danforth Music Hall and The Opera House in Toronto, adding star power to her journey. After posting a snippet of her original song on Instagram, a moment that garnered a staggering 1.4 million views, she followed her viral reel and released the highly anticipated "August Twenty-Second" in August 2023.

Currently, she's in the studio in Toronto recording a new set of songs, all set to grace the upcoming record.
