LATEST EPISODE 🔗
Strength training is about muscle, bone density and aging well physically. But it can also give us tangible proof of what we are capable of. Sometimes we have to experience our own strength before we can truly believe in it. And a strong body can become a doorway to a strong heart and a strong mind…

Today, we’re tackling one of the most overlooked foundations of kids’ health: physical literacy. It’s time we stop treating movement as optional. Like reading or writing, it’s a skill every child deserves to master. And few people understand that better than Dr. Ali McManus, Director of the School …
Today on the (w)healthy podcast we’re talking about an area of women’s health that needs to be talked about way more. It affects far more women than most of us realize — and for many women, the impacts last long after treatment ends. About a year and a half ago, thanks in part to a sizable donation…

Meaning that the “oldest old” population is growing fastest! So what can we do to prepare ourselves for aging? In this episode of the (w)healthy podcas…
In Canada, more than 772,000 people are currently living with dementia, and that number is expected to nearly double within the next 20 years. Which is why today we are joined by Dr. Pieter Strauss, a physician and clinical researcher who is not just observing where Alzheimer's research is going, h…
Just over a year ago on Day of Giving the community rallied to raise funds to bring Vinni, a surgical robot, to Kelowna General Hospital.
