My guest on this week’s episode of The True North Show is Kris Vallay, she is a woman who embraces her authenticity in every conversation and interaction she has.  Kris shares a defining and pivotal moment in her life 21 years ago and how that has led her to continually pursue JOY in everything she does.  We talk about the shame that comes with being a woman and sex and her answer to my last question is so incredibly insightful and moving.

Bio:

Kris Vallay is an unapologetically honest writer, podcaster, and truth-teller known for her radical take on sex, self-love, and authentic presence.  The author of “The One”, a raw, powerful memoir that strips back societal shame around women's pleasure, Kris has quickly become a fierce voice for women everywhere who are done hiding.

A solo parent to four neurodivergent children, Kris blends fierce advocacy with deep emotional intelligence, using humour and lived experience to open taboo conversations.

As co-host of the Sex and the One podcast, she continues to dismantle outdated ideas around love, dating, and female desire, one spicy, soulful conversation at a time.

Kris’s audience spans women seeking empowerment, men who want to understand intimacy beyond the surface, and the sex-positive communities.  Through every word and mic drop, she reminds us that authenticity is our greatest power and we don’t need to apologise for wanting more.

Kris operates in all areas from a deeply spiritual root system that has been continually and consistently downloaded and acclimated over the years.  Kris uses all her gifts and intuition to guide her life in every area as a truly embodied soul.

My guest on this week’s episode of The True North Show is Naomi Cao, an incredibly inspiring woman I met about 4 weeks ago, and as soon as we started chatting I knew she would be a perfect guest.  Naomi shares with us her incredible journey from being a refugee in Melbourne Australia to how she reframes challenges as opportunities and how those opportunities have shaped her life to what she does now, helping people who are facing separation and divorce.

Bio:

Naomi Cao is a Divorce Coach and Strategist, specialising in helping individuals navigate separation with clarity, compassion, and confidence.

With lived experience of a 17-year marriage breakdown, Naomi brings a rare blend of empathy and strategy, drawing on her professional background in healthcare, education, and coaching to empower clients to rebuild their lives with resilience.

Amid her professional achievements, Naomi’s personal life was undergoing profound change.  After 17 years of marriage, she faced the painful reality of separation and divorce.  Like many, she was confronted not only with the emotional toll but also with the daunting practicalities of financial uncertainty, parenting transitions, and redefining identity.

Naomi allowed herself time to grieve the loss of her marriage and the family unit she had worked so hard to protect.  But she also began the journey of reclaiming her voice, her independence, and her sense of self.  Her lived experience became the foundation of her coaching practice: a powerful reminder that even in the most fragmented of times, “Split Happens – finding power in the pieces”.

Out of her journey, Naomi founded Naomi Cao Coaching where she helps her clients prioritise what matters most; children’s welfare, financial stability, emotional well-being, and break overwhelming challenges into manageable steps. 

She reminds her clients and herself that life when Split Happens, is not an ending but the beginning of a new chapter.  Today, Naomi is a trusted guide for those facing one of life’s greatest upheavals.  Her message is simple yet powerful: you are not broken, you are becoming.

My guest on this episode of The True North Show is a beautiful friend of mine who is also my business partner, a major sponsor of this show and someone who isn’t a stranger to being on a TV show with me.  Beth and I discuss how important breathwork is when it comes to calming our nervous system and she shares her journey on how it all started and how, at times, she just needs to take “one breath at a time”.

My guest on the first episode of Season 2 of The True North Show is Dr Melissa Raymond, PhD who is a returning guest to the show.  In today’s episode Melissa shares with us how and why she moved into working with clients who suffer with eczema and how she finds balance when it comes to approaching this work with a non-medical lens.  We also explore her experience of having to embrace the flow when her career needed to pivot in a new direction.  You won’t want to miss our conversation! 

Bio:

Dr Melissa Raymond is a physiotherapist with a PhD, researcher, university lecturer and Eczema and Quantum coach.  She's worked with thousands of patients over her 20+ year career in health and countless families with eczema, topical steroid withdrawal, and other health conditions over the last 9 years. 

After searching for answers for her son’s eczema and fighting against the ‘steroids for life, antibiotics for a year, wet dressings, and bleach baths’ lifetime sentence from doctors, she sought the advice of over a dozen health professionals to help heal her son's skin at the root - and he now lives a life completely eczema-free! 

Melissa works with clients all over the world with eczema, topical steroid withdrawal, and other health conditions do the same for themselves and their children – only faster and with less guesswork and overwhelm.  Using a quantum approach to identify and clear root causes, along with epigenetics, she loves seeing her clients finally living the lives that they could only dream of.

My guest on this week’s episode of The True North Show is Chris Brandell who is an incredible and inspiring intuitive abstract artist who does everything with love.  Her pieces are an ever-evolving interpretation of her connection with something greater.  Chris shares with us how she had to learn to quieten her logical brain and step fully into a creative space that was completely intuitive while learning how to bring herself back to presence and being rounded. Everything she does is always with love and it is evident throughout our conversation.

Bio:

Chris Brandell is an intuitive abstract artist whose minimalist compositions are intimate expressions of her interactions with the natural world.  Exploring the dynamic interplay between presence, intuition and quiet space, her limited palette and the texture and marks she makes are informed by the things she loves found near her studio: shells, driftwood, pieces of concrete, and wire and more.

Chris also feels the energy connected to words, quotes and poetry, music and lyrics.  She represents these physical and heart-felt inspirations abstractly with oil paint and a variety of drawing media on large-scale two-dimensional surfaces.  Chris emphasizes the authenticity of intuition over planning—believing that a painting’s truth lies in its lived discovery, not in the mind’s design.  Her paintings usually start with an organic drawing which may end up being the focus of the composition or just the foundation for something new.  This method prioritizes negative space, letting it speak as powerfully as marks.  She treats sparsity not as emptiness, but as meaningful pauses full of potential where her work invites viewers to reflect and insert their own interpretations into the negative space.

Fundamentally she paints about all types of love: spiritual, romantic, platonic and self-love. She is interested in the idea that Divine perfection – essentially the ultimate form of love – exists in every aspect of life.  Her mantra is “do what you love and forget the rest” and this is the truth of Chris’ work: no matter where it takes her, it is always about love.

Through her work, Chris aims to craft spaces that channel love and peace. Born and raised in New Rochelle, New York, Chris’ work continues to evolve in her studio in Marco Island, Florida. After a successful career as a business executive and part-time artist, she has been focused on painting full time since early 2019. 

Her paintings can be found in private and corporate collections including that of Southern Methodist University, Phi Beta Phi in Texas, and The Silva & Edge Buildings in Maryland. She is represented by Gardner Colby Gallery, Huff Harrington Fine Art, Artful Sol Gallery and Design Supply Gallery.  These notable galleries, and others, have praised her paintings for their meditative presence and quiet elegance.

In sum, Chris Brandell’s artistic journey is a poetic testament to following one’s inner call: from corporate precision to the meditative freedom of abstract painting, her art is a quiet dialogue between presence and absence—and a call to find beauty and love in simplicity.
