Xposed Living : Be Ageless

What if success isn’t about having it all — but believing you can create what truly matters?

In this Xposed Living: Gen X Wellness Evolution conversation, Stacey Vanthuyne reconnects with Catherine Vu — one of Edmonton’s most influential entrepreneurs and philanthropists — to talk about authenticity, courage, and creating impact that lasts.

Long before boardrooms and business awards, Catherine attended Stacey’s aerobics classes in the early 2000s. Decades later, both women have built lives defined by resilience, reinvention, and purpose. Their energy is contagious, their laughter is real, and their insights are game-changing.

As founder of Pro-Active IT Management Inc. and creator of The Vu Impact Fund, Catherine shares how she’s built trust, led with curiosity, and stayed grounded in a male-dominated industry. Together, she and Stacey redefine what balance really means — proving that authenticity always wins and that giving back expands everything.

 In this episode, you’ll get Xposed to:

• The myth of balance — and what real alignment looks like

• How authenticity builds stronger teams, cultures, and communities

• The secret to staying grounded while scaling success

• Why leadership is about impact, not accolades

• Courage, curiosity, and trust — the unshakable trio of influence

• How giving back fuels both business and joy

 This isn’t a highlight reel.

It’s a behind-the-scenes look at two powerhouse women who’ve lived, led, and evolved — and are still just getting started.

Because in leadership, believing in your ability is an inside job.

“You don’t have to do it all—you have to do what matters.” - Angelina Rivera

What if “busy” is the very thing stealing the life you want? In this Xposed Living: Be Ageless conversation, time management coach Angelina Rivera gets unapologetically real about treating time like the most valuable currency Gen X has. We dismantle busy culture, reframe discipline as freedom, and build a week that actually serves your goals, your energy, and your life.

Angelina breaks down her SHINE principles—habits, intentionality, resilience (and the courage to say no)—so you can move from overwhelm to ownership. We go deep on clarity (what you really want), delegation (what you should stop doing), boundaries (what you won’t negotiate), and celebration (fuel that keeps you consistent). This is productivity without the punishment—life-first planning for people who refuse to live on autopilot.

In this episode, you’ll get Xposed to:

• Time as currency: spend it on what compounds—health, impact, relationships, results.

• Clarity > chaos: define the one outcome that moves the needle this week.

• Boundaries that breathe: how to say no without guilt (and mean it).

• Delegation that frees you: what to automate, outsource, or drop entirely.

• SHINE in practice: habits + intentionality + resilience you can start today.

• Schedule like a pro: design your week in advance (and actually keep it).

• Celebrate small, win big: everyday wins that build unstoppable momentum.

Who this is for: Gen X leaders, builders, and do-it-all humans who are done with hustle theater and ready for intentional, results-driven living—alive, free, unfiltered.

What does it really mean to live unapologetically?

In this episode of Xposed Living: Be Ageless, Stacey Vanthuyne gets real with Erin Renninger — Authentic Success Coach, speaker, retreat host, and creator of the Unapologetically Authentic podcast and events.

Erin knows what it means to blow up the rule book and choose a life built on courage, faith, and freedom. From leaving behind a successful salon to selling everything and moving into an RV with her husband and kids, Erin’s story is about stripping away people-pleasing, surrendering to the unknown, and creating success on her own terms.

Together, Stacey and Erin uncover what happens when you stop editing your life, stop apologizing, and start living bold:

 Why self-discovery is messy, raw, and never finished
 The hidden cost of people-pleasing — and how to break free
 How faith and surrender create the space for growth
 The role of humor and curiosity in keeping relationships alive
 Redefining success when society’s checklist no longer fits
 What it really means to live free, alive, and unapologetic

This conversation isn’t about surface-level “authenticity.” It’s about being uncovered, unfiltered, and unapologetically Xposed.

Because you only get this one life. Don’t waste it living someone else’s version of success.

“Grief doesn’t define you—it refines you.” - Sri Mahabir

What happens when grief collides with growth? When fear of being seen turns into the fuel for building community, impact, and unapologetic success?

In this Xposed Living: Be Ageless conversation, Sri Mahabir strips away the filters and gets raw about her journey from camera-shy to confidence. She opens up about the weight of grief, the courage it took to go live on social media, and the unshakable faith that turned vulnerability into visibility.

This isn’t a story about perfection—it’s about persistence. About breaking generational patterns of emotional suppression. About asking nine times before a yes. About building resilience in the fire of loss. And about leading with authenticity so real, it pulls people closer instead of pushing them away.

If you’ve ever felt like you had to “wait until you’re ready” before showing up, this episode will expose the truth: courage comes first, clarity follows.

In this episode, you’ll Get Xposed to:

• Visibility as a practice: how Sri moved from hiding to thriving on social media.

• Grief as a teacher: using pain as the foundation for purpose.

• Vulnerability as leadership: why showing your cracks creates deeper connection.

• Community as currency: why who you walk with matters more than what you sell.

• Faith as fuel: navigating entrepreneurship when logic isn’t enough.

• Three tasks a day: the simplicity of progress without burnout.

• Courage over comfort: the only way to step into authentic growth.

This is the truth Gen Xers and beyond need to hear: stop waiting to feel ready. Ready is a lie. Courage is the decision that changes everything.

In this raw, unscripted solo episode, Stacey Vanthuyne gets deeply personal about identity, endurance, and the power of living from the end. Fresh off completing her first Ironman 70.3, Stacey opens up about what it really takes to become the person capable of your biggest goals — and why authenticity, commitment, and belief are the true finish lines.

This isn’t just about triathlons. It’s about life, leadership, and legacy. It’s about breaking the illusion of “someday” and choosing to live fully now. Stacey shares what it means to shed old beliefs, embody a limitless mindset, and rise into the identity of someone who doesn’t just chase goals — she creates them.

She also shares her upcoming mission to Thailand, where she’ll join The Wholeness Journey to stand with and support women who’ve survived human trafficking. Because living Xposed isn’t about success for self — it’s about using what you’ve built to make an impact.

This episode is your permission slip to stop waiting.To stop trying to control outcomes.And to start trusting — your faith, your training, your timing, and yourself.

Because belief is the beginning of becoming.

If this episode spoke to your soul, share it, tag me, and let’s redefine what midlife looks like — together.

What if midlife wasn’t about slowing down—but about chasing adventure, building legacy, and reinventing what’s possible?

In this episode of Xposed Living: Be Ageless, I sit down with Todd Lawson—author, explorer, and entrepreneur—whose life has been anything but ordinary. From riding motorcycles across the world with his family, to carrying legacy through loss, to building businesses that connect people to nature, Todd’s journey is a masterclass in courage, creativity, and freedom.

Today, Todd’s mission is clear: to bring the healing power of nature to more people through Air Nest—an innovative camping solution designed to simplify the outdoors and make adventure accessible to everyone.

We get Xposed to the truth about:

• Why there’s no ceiling to what you can achieve—at any age

• How to overcome fear and trust the process in entrepreneurship and life

• The power of simplifying experiences—like camping—to create more joy

• What nature teaches us about resilience, presence, and well-being

• How travel rewires our perspective on humanity and connection

• Why reinvention is less about becoming someone new—and more about becoming who you’ve always been

• The importance of legacy, memories, and living a story worth telling

As Todd says, “One day or day one—you decide.”

This isn’t a politics podcast. This is about people who dare to step out of their comfort zones, who choose courage over fear, and who put themselves on the line to create change.

Fidel’s story is one of transformation, courage, and community. From nearly three decades in Edmonton’s transit system to stepping forward to run for city council, his journey is fueled by family support, a deep love for his community, and the belief that leadership means influence — not control.

Together, Stacey and Fidel talk about:
 The courage it takes to run for office — and the “why” behind it
 Fidel’s vision for a safer, more connected Edmonton
 Why revitalization must start with residents, not politics
 The role of family and personal transformation in bold leadership
 How living Xposed means getting involved, taking risks, and standing for change

This episode is more than whether or not you live in Edmonton or who if you do you will vote for, this episode is a reminder: leadership starts with courage, community, and connection.

The Edmonton municipal election is on October 20. Wherever you live, vote.  Your voice matters.

What if the parenting “rules” we were raised with are the very beliefs keeping us stuck in stress, guilt, and disconnection with our kids?

In this powerful Xposed Living conversation, Stacey Vanthuyne sits down with Bryan Post—renowned therapist, adoptee, and creator of the Fear to Love Method—to strip away the myths of control and uncover what really heals families.

Bryan shares his raw personal story of being adopted, the pain that shaped his life, and how it fueled his mission to help parents move from fear to love. Together, we dive into the unfiltered truths:

 Why “all behavior is communication”—and how to actually hear it
 Why control and punishment backfire—and what to do instead
 How stress and unresolved grief sabotage parenting (and how to release it)
 Why influence > control when raising strong, connected kids
 The surprising role of technology in real-time parenting support (Bondify.ai)

This isn’t about being the “perfect parent.” It’s about showing up with presence, breathing through the chaos, and choosing love as the most powerful force in any relationship.

Whether you’re parenting teens, navigating midlife reinvention, or healing your own inner child—this conversation will Xpose you to a new way of seeing yourself, your kids, and the legacy you’re creating.

 Because healing doesn’t start with control. It starts with love.

What happens when you say YES—even when it terrifies you?

In this raw and powerful episode of Xposed Living, Stacey Vanthuyne sits down with Jessica Dahl—founder of The Wholeness Journey—to uncover the truth about trauma, healing, and the radical freedom that comes when women trust themselves again.

Jessica shares her journey of facing the darkness of human trafficking head-on and choosing to build light through community, purpose, and empowerment. Together, we go deep into-

 Why saying YES to hard things is the key to growth
 How to trust your intuition—even when fear + ego scream louder
 Why reinvention is available to anyone, no matter your past
 The power of community in reclaiming your voice + identity
 Why healing isn’t about perfection—it’s about grace, love, and self-compassion

This conversation will Xpose you to the whispers inside you—the ones that guide you to step out of fear, step into purpose, and create impact in your own life and beyond.

 You are not defined by your past. You are worthy. You are powerful. You are limitless.
