The Oh Hi Podcast

Oh hi, I'm back! It was a busy and exciting summer. Now that I've reached a new normal, it's been fun getting back into the studio to chat with some cool people! Today I got to chat with Michelle Sparrows. She is a creative inspiration! We talk about her career as a pharmacist, taking chances to invest into her passions, her brand new husband, and more! Find Michelle @yumaste.ca on Instagram. She...

I was so JAZZED to chat with an old friend of mine today, Amelia Lee. Amelia and I have known each other since our wholesome and maybe cringy middle school days. We got to catch up and chatted about her pursuit of dance and being glad it didn't end up being her career, her hustle lifestyle, how she keeps her ego in check, and more! So many great little nuggets today, thank you Amelia!!

Sarena Colbourne and I knew each other from high school, and only started talking again more recently when we found out we are both homeschooling our kids. I think it's so great when 2 people may not know each other well before, but then their paths cross again down the road and connect on so many things. Today we chat about pursuing her career in hair so that she could stay at home with her k...

I got to catch up with one of my oldest friends today, Jodi Min! Jodi and I have known each other for practically our whole lives, but somehow the years have added up since we've had a good catch up! We reminisce about our childhood and some of our earliest memories, chat about sibling relationships, her decision to leave her teaching career, transitioning to starting her own business @luminiq...

I was soooo excited to chat with Kelsey Bang today! I've been following Kelsey's YouTube channel for over 5 years now, and was always so drawn to her positive attitude and desire for adventure. I'm so thankful I got the chance to get to know her better! We chatted about getting started in making videos, putting their life up on YouTube and social media, making drastic life changes, liv...

I got to chat about alllll the things today with Janel Kidd! It's amazing when you get to meet someone and can relate on so many topics. Farm life (ok I can't relate with this but I love the idea of it lol), being an example to your kids, association, marriage, traveling with kids, and more! I hope you enjoy! <3

Today I got to chat with Deanne McIntyre, some that my volunteer producer (hi Stacey haha) introduced me to. But then we realized we were both part of @streetparking and in a private group chat together - love when that happens! We chat about her unconventional path to now being a personal trainer, going after what you're passionate about, raising her awesome young men, facing discrimination i...

Today I got a chance to have a chat with Nancy Surby, whom I met on a pub crawl for a friend's birthday (hi Jaclyn!!) years ago. I never got to know her better, but she always stood out to me! We chatted about how she got into her career as an interior designer, finally giving in to owning her own business, her and her husband's decision to not have kids, learning how to pivot, and more! C...

Most people would probably be a bit shaken up after an attempted break and enter, but nope...Klarissa Paradis BROUGHT IT today! She dropped so many gold nuggets. We chatted about being an intellectual rebellion, focusing on outcome instead of tactics, toxic positivity, and more! Find @klarissadawn and check out her podcast - Be Better Podcast with Klarissa Paradis.

Today I got to chat with Sarah Attivi, someone I met through a previous guest (thanks Stacey!). We got into some LIFE stuff today. We talk about her career as a hair stylist, gaining confidence in business ownership, the loss of her sweet mom, living through grief, and so much more! I appreciate the vulnerability my guests have when they come on the show, thank you so much! <3 Enjoy!

I was HOWLING while chatting with Nikki Cloutier, I think you will too! She brought such energy and joy to the pod today. We chat about her rugby & first responder career, starting a business days before the pandemic, not giving a f***, and more! Tune in today if you want a good laugh and to learn about perseverance and having a positive attitude (or making an effort to :P).

No April Fool's here! Today I got to chat with Adam Tymko, and I feel like he could've shared a dozen other stories! We chatted about his mindset when choosing his career, being in discovery mode to develop his spirituality, deepening his meditation practice, and takeaways from just a few of his travels. Adam's got some exciting things going on in the near future, so perhaps we'll...

20th episode! When I first started this podcast, my goal was to record 20 episodes, not really sure where things would go or how I'd get there. But here we are, and it's been such a joyful ride! I'm so glad I got to spend this special episode with Daphne (@noeldee), my first "stranger!" We chat about her journey in becoming a Reiki Master (so cool!), how her spiritual identit...

What an episode! Carole and I met years ago at work, but at best we were acquaintances. Carole discovered my podcast recently and reached out, and we were able to reconnect by recording an episode! You're in for a treat - Carole is such a great storyteller. I was captivated by her stories of past and present. We chat about defining periods in her life, being stuck in emotionally abusive relati...

Time always goes by quickly when I'm chatting with my guests, but today did in particular! I got to spend some time with Stacey Bootsman today, and found out we actually have a lot in common: rugby, CrossFit, and letting go of control and expectations (ha!). We chat about her active nature growing up, how that's transitioned into her current life, modeling that for her kids, being intentio...

It's crazy to think that Lindsey and I have only met once in person, but have talked online so much more, and so it feels like I know her better than I do. So I was looking forward to actually understanding her story more. She's got quite the story! We talk about her reasons for going into and out of social work, navigating anxiety and pain, the power of food, and more! Find Lindsey @be.we...

I think I had a smile on my face the whole time during my chat today with my friend, Jaclyn! See if you can listen to her talk without having a smile on your face, or being in a better mood after. We chat about her positive outlook, being called a unicorn, becoming best friends with her husband, and pursuing meaning in her career as a Recreational Therapist. Enjoy!

I got to chat with an old classmate, CJ Baker, today. CJ and I were more so acquaintances during our university days, so I was really looking forward to getting to know him a bit better. We chat about life after university, switching careers once the joy is gone, working on something that fills your soul, and more! I hope you enjoy :) Find CJ on YouTube and Instagram @toyotaFANatic81

Today I got to catch up with my very flexible, creative, and chill friend, Tori Taphorn (those are the 3 words I would use to describe her lol)! It has been a long minute since we chatted, so I was so looking forward to hearing about everything that's been new for her. Tori shares about her upbringing in rural Alberta, curating her education to compliment her passion for art, and exploring new...

5-6-7-8! What a great time I had today catching up with an old friend of mine, Amanda Ducharme.

I was able to catch up with my friend, Nicole Fremit, today. We met over a decade ago at a bus stop, and have been friends ever since! It really goes to show how you never know who you can meet if you're willing to just say hi. We chat about choosing the hard path versus the easy one, leaning into discomfort, being spontaneous while also intentional, and being in a constant pursuit of self-dis...

Today I got to catch up with an old friend/colleague of mine, Nicole Thompson. We worked together for approximately a year, and have only kept in touch through social media. I was really excited to catch up with her and hear about her (wild) journey throughout the years, because it's so different than just seeing it on a post. We chat about her relationship with each of her parents, her transi...

Oh hi! I thought perhaps I should put myself in the hot seat and be the "guest" for Episode 10. I got my husband to be the host, and I really wasn't sure where this conversation was going to go. I promise, we didn't plan it out! We chat about the importance of my cultural upbringing, how I've learned to grow in relationship, CrossFit (with a shoutout to @richfroning lol), and...

Merry Christmas! Today I got a chance to catch up with a friend that I've known for over 2 decades! We lost touch through the years, and so I was excited to be able to see what Shaheer has been up to.
