Tanisha focuses and assisting young mothers, families and single men and women with their financial literacy as she had to go through the journey as a young mother, in her early twenties. She became an emotional spender to cope with the stresses of parenting and life in general and so she fell into a little debt from her overspending. 

But thankfully through her faith in the lord and through therapy sessions she was able to recognize her overspending habits and to curb them and deal with the emotions behind them. She says that you need to get to the root cause of your spending habits. When you feel stressed and go to the mall, or go online shopping or buying fast-food, or even gambling… People cope with stress in many different ways. You have to figure out what triggers you and when you are shopping ask yourself do you need this? Does it really serve a purpose? 

Tanisha is currently focusing on helping her son transition to starting his first year of university. And her future goals are to continue working on her upcoming podcast as well as other projects.

Habeeb Ali, executive director of One Love Family Services and One Love Media. He has created community initiatives to help meet peoples needs especially during the pandemic. Habeeb is an interfaith chaplain, who was born and raised in Guyana. He grew up in an interfaith family with Hindu and Muslim parents and was a Bob Marley fan and even became a Rastafarian briefly, for a few years as a youth. His diverse background and passion for bringing people together would serve him later in life. He studied at Queens College in Guyana, then gained the opportunity to study a Masters in Islamic studies in India. Afterwards he immigrated to Canada and has been working as a Muslim chaplain over the past 17 years.

Ali was inspired to create the One Love gala, 10 years ago, during his tenure as a chaplain for the Federal institution when Stephen Harper removed all non-Christian chaplains. So Ali wanted to award and acknowledge the successful integration of chaplains, including minority chaplains like Jewish, Muslim and Rastafarian, who were former inmates into society. Ali also works with other community activists who try to encourage inmates to stay out of crime through sharing their testimonies and even to encourage youth to not pursue a life of crime.

Besides the gala, Ali also helped to co-found the One Love Family Services non profit organization. Their goal is to to provide food hampers that are culturally appropriate to families in need through curb side pickup and through volunteers delivering to clients across the GTA. One Love Family services even does family wellness checks especially during the pandemic.

One Love Family also has a food drive which is sponsored by partners in churches, mosques, international students, seniors, single mothers, people from Vaughn, Markham, Whitby, Christian, Jewish, Atheist, Hindu have all participated and used their food drive through this difficult time. Ali was even inspired by one of the families that was helped through the drive as they are now successfully back on their feet and able to donate to the food drive to pay it forward.

We encourage our listeners to check out the One Love podcast where you can listen to the replay of Ali’s interview of our show host Nikki Clarke by following this link at:

Sharna Knowles is an author and pastor who wrote the daily devotional “30 Days in the Word,” to inspire people to grow in their faith and share tips to dig deeper into the word and prayer. Sharna’s faith journey started from childhood in Kingston Jamaica, when she was baptized as a youth and loved the things of the lord. When she grew up and and became a teenager she went astray but and had to deal with many challenges including her grandmother passing away and then her mother immigrated to Canada. During her late teens, she joined her mother in Canada. She also decided to turn back to her faith after being invited to church. She said a pivotal moment the helped her to turn back was hearing a sermon at the church where the pastor told her and the rest of the congregation to “seek ye first the kingdom of god”. She took this message to heart and leaned more on the lord even getting involved in church as an usher/greeter, then becoming a Sunday school teacher, working in the kitchen, doing outreach ministries and lots of work behind the scenes. All of the roles trained her and prepared her for god’s calling on her life to serve in Ministry years later as an author and pastor.

Sharna encourages people to overcome fear during difficult times by believing in Jesus as your personal saviour and to get connected back to the lord through the confession of sins, find peace, prayer and give thanks to him. Trust in the lord every day, even when your are not necessarily feeling positive, but to lean not on our own understanding. She also advises us to read the word and to stay connected and to fellowship with your church community to grow with and encourage each other.

Since she was 27 years old she wanted to write a book about her life’s journey but in February 2020 she was inspired to write the devotional, after going to conference by Pastor Toure Roberts, where she heard that she needed a destiny connector and a book to get to her next level in faith. That moment and through the holy spirit she decided to begin writing her book which was published in April 2021. One of the most important lessons she learned through this process was to refuse to quit. You will never produce if you quit. Continue to pray and move forward.
