    On a family trip to Vancouver, Jonathan interviews his younger sister Maria who moved out to study there in 2021 and has lived there since.

    In a unique, "day-in-the-life" and sightseeing-style podcast episode, Maria talks about her experiences as a student in British Columbia, her thoughts on the education field which she is planning on working in, and reminisces with Jonathan about family trips out to Vancouver in the past.

    Jonathan also shares his knowledge of facts and history of the Vancouver sports world including the NHL Vancouver Canucks (plus some digs at the NHL Toronto Maple Leafs‬), the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics and Alphonso Davies' time on the MLS Vancouver Whitecaps.

  • E11 | Laura Loving | 2025/03/19 | Call From Los Angeles, California, United States of America
    2026/01/28

    Originally: Consciousness Prints Podcast Episode 11 - Creativity, Spirituality, Intuition, Boundaries, Romance, Self-Love

    Laura Loving has had incredible life journey with unique experiences with family moves as a child from Mexico to Canada to the U.S.A., a love for reading and deep conversations, and has been inspired by many great teachers and educational programs.

    In Consciousness Prints Episode 11, Jonathan video calls Laura in Los Angeles on Google Meet from his home city of Kitchener, Ontario, Canada and they both share their recent and past life experiences and insights around spirituality, the various types, feeling different (such as being "the new kid") and getting through challenging circumstances such as the recent California wildfires. They also talk about their own creativity and dealing with the sometimes harsh financial reality of pursuing exploring one's creative side but use artists such as Chappell Roan as inspiration to keep going.

    Setting healthy boundaries in all types of relationships and making sure you are strong and grounded in your own life and love for yourself before seeking an intimate partner is advice that's brought up. Following one's inner nudges in all aspects of life from romance to vocational choices, is the key theme and take-away. Jonathan and Laura provide some general examples and insights from their own life experiences to illustrate this.
