What happens when you stop asking “What’s the worst that can happen?” and start asking “What’s the best case scenario?” In this episode of The Karas Wright Show, Business & Leadership Coach Karas Wright (Wright Step Coaching) sits down with Terra Hall, founder of TAKEsnacks, a vending solutions company built on connection, service, and community impact.

Terra shares what it really looks like to start a business in a new season of life — from building confidence through hard decisions, to finding mentors and partnerships, to creating a “team” that doesn’t look traditional (family, friends, accountants, business partners… all of it counts). They dig into entrepreneurship myths, solopreneur loneliness, and why customer experience matters even in a vending machine business — plus how Terra brings added value through relationship-building, QR-driven snack requests, and charitable giving in the Okotoks community.

If you’re in the “muck” right now — personally or professionally — this conversation will help you reset, refocus, and move forward with grit and gratitude.

In this episode of Spirit Speaks, host Charlotte Lomenda sits down with Stephanie Eli for a powerful conversation about anxiety, intuition, and what the soul is trying to communicate. Together, they explore how anxiety can show up when our mind, body, and spirit aren’t in sync — and how something as simple as breathwork can bring us back to the present moment.

Charlotte shares meaningful stories about working with children who are sensitive to energy and spirituality, and why creating a safe space for kids to express what they’re experiencing matters so much. Stephanie opens up about her own life as a mom, her child’s struggles at school, and her journey of learning to trust her intuition instead of masking it. The conversation touches on sensitivity, labels, creativity, healing, and stepping into your power — especially when you’ve spent years feeling “different.”

Women in leadership are still facing a different set of rules — especially online. In this episode of Hear Me Out with Belinda, host Belinda Waites (Hearing Aid Practitioner at Hear Right Canada – Okotoks) sits down with Mayor Tanya Thorn of Okotoks for a real and vulnerable conversation about leadership, cyberbullying, and community.
Tanya shares how social media has shifted over her 12 years in public service, the toll that online attacks take on leaders and their families, and why “attacking the policy, not the person” matters more than ever. Belinda and Tanya dive into double standards for women in leadership, emotional intelligence, mental health, and how parents’ behavior online impacts their kids.
They also explore how real-life connection — volunteering, joining local groups, having coffee with a neighbour — can build resilience in our community and help bring kindness back into everyday dialogue.
If you care about Okotoks, community, or kinder conversations, this episode is for you. 💙
