years experience working in healthcare. Listening to the guidance of her body, she left

her government position and embraced entrepreneurship to fulfill her soul's purpose.

Since childhood, Alana Joy experienced many unusual and poorly understood injuries

and symptoms and she accumulated multiple diagnostic labels. Her experience of her

body was often disbelieved and she learned to distrust it and become disconnected

from it.

In her 30’s, Alana Joy was diagnosed with a rare genetic degenerative condition

of the connection tissue. Her diagnosis followed by her father’s death confronted her

with her mortality and catalyzed her spiritual awakening.

A disorder of connection- she

HAD to reconnect.

The layers of conditioned patterns, behaviours and identities

collapsed and she reconnected with her core essence, uncovering her soul's purpose.

In her work, Alana Joy brings together her knowledge and experience as a nurse,

psychotherapist and her own awakening, weaving science and spirituality for deep

physical, emotional and spiritual healing.

Her mission is to guide others through the

process of reconnecting with their heart, body and soul for a more purposeful and joyful life.

Born in 2006 in Homs, Syria, Anas Mohamad’s first few years alive were as normal as any other child around the world. However, around 2010, his life would take a dramatic turn as the Syrian Civil War began to take form. His family, left with no option but to relocate due to dangerous conditions in their home city, would make the move to the coastal city of Tartus. Fortunately, in 2015, Anas, his mother, and his sister, would all make the life-changing move of immigrating to Canada. Although the first few years in a new country would bring its fair share of challenges, Anas and his family would eventually begin to thrive. Upon his arrival in highschool, Anas would prove himself to be a capable and talented student-athlete. He would go on to graduate as the Valedictorian of the 2024 graduating class. Anas will continue his studies at the College of Engineering at the U of S, and hopes to continue to thrive in both the academic and athletic spaces.

Being present... what does it mean to you?

Is it simply physically being there? That's what I used to think when I felt disconnected and out of touch with my body.

However, once I learned to let go of the burdens and live in alignment with my true, authentic self, I finally understood what being present truly means.

A world that has increasingly become a difficult place to speak up, and communicate freely, and without judgment. This book became his salvation during times of sadness, uncertainty, and indeed, during his awakening.

Except it wasn't IDGAF, it was IDARA: "I Don't Actually Give A Rat's Ass" about my own pain.

Turns out, that facade is about as healthy as a week-old burrito.

Let me tell you why peeling back those layers is where the real magic happens.

Growing up in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, and being the middle child between 2 amazing sisters, Curtis Korchinski felt the pressure of being groomed to take over the family business, along with marrying a nice Catholic girl to raise our children. 

By Grade 9, he feared that would not be an ideal plan for himself and struggled with the societal influences that were prominently displayed throughout his upbringing, in the media and within their family. Curtis left home at 17 to figure life out, and found his home in the hospitality industry at age 19. After a few years of battling the internal demons he had created for himself. He finally came out and cleaned up his addictive behaviour. In 2003  Curtis met the true love of his life, Jordan. They started seeing each other shortly after and were married in February 2005. 

Being adopted, Curtis always wanted to pay it forward so Jordan and himself eventually became fathers to 2 sons, while owning & operating 2 restaurants. My Mom's family is very musical, so I started a band with a close friend of  his (Amanda Hagel) in 2004 and have been playing gigs ever since, and in a few other local bands as well. His other hobby is competitive bodybuilding which he's been involved in since 2011. His career has shifted from hospitality to commercial real estate and he truly enjoys the company he works with and the clients he represents.

 Curtis and Jordan are very fortunate to be fathers to their sons, and are very thankful for their health, and an amazing group of friends and family.

Energized at the MYM Conference

Last weekend, I buzzed with energy at the MYM Conference hosted by Sarah Swain. It was an inspiring gathering of 400 people: entrepreneurs, doctors, investors, lawyers, energy workers, artists, and everyone in between.

We delved into the importance of reconnecting with our bodies and pursuing business on our own terms. We also explored how fear is often a self-created story, and in most cases, simply untrue.

Fear can hold anyone back. We've all succumbed to it at some point, letting it talk us out of our dreams. But that's changing!

Instead, there is a growing recognition that coaching should focus on nurturing a supportive and encouraging environment. This shift prioritizes personal development, enjoyment of the sport, and the cultivation of essential life skills such as teamwork, perseverance, and respect.

By adopting more empathetic and constructive coaching methods, we can ensure that junior sports programs not only produce skilled athletes but also foster well-rounded individuals who are prepared for future challenges both on and off the field, ice or court!

Taking a chance on yourself isn't just about blind optimism—it's about summoning the courage to bet on your own potential, no matter the circumstances. It's about embracing the unknown, even when the road ahead seems shrouded in fog.

So go ahead, take that leap of faith. Trust in your abilities, even when doubt comes knocking at your door. Because when you bet on yourself, you're not just rolling the dice—you're making a wager on the most valuable asset you'll ever have: you. And who knows? That leap of faith just might be the catalyst for your greatest triumph yet.
