First up, I'm delighted to welcome back family conflict expert and professional certified coach Aly Pain. Aly's insights on parenting, especially when it comes to dealing with teenagers, are always enlightening. Today, she will be sharing valuable advice on how to model healthy conflict for your teens - a skill every parent should have.
Next, if you're planning a summer getaway, let me take you on a virtual trip to the heart of Toronto. Tracy Ford, the Director of Public Relations at the Chelsea Hotel, will guide us through the vibrant, bustling city with its lively festivals, rich cultural heritage, and a food scene to die for.
Following our virtual tour, my regular contributor Anne Brodie will join me with her weekly round-up of film and TV reviews. This week, we'll discuss the intimate family portrait Something You Said Last Night and the poignant drama Tiger Within featuring the late, great Ed Asner in his final film role.
After the film reviews, I get to dive into a candid conversation with Jessica Earnshaw about her new documentary, Jacinta. Unfolding over three years, this intimate story of addiction and recovery explores the lives of a mother and daughter, both incarcerated and struggling with drug addiction.
Wrapping up the show, Anne Brodie is back with an insightful conversation with the team behind 'This Place', a groundbreaking coming-of-age drama exploring themes of displacement, love, and cultural identity. Anne will be speaking with the film's writer-director V.T. Nayani and actor Priya Guns. This compelling film weaves together the experiences of refugees, Indigenous peoples, and the LGBTQ+ community with a touching love story at its core. Stay tuned for this engaging interview!
