The advertised status quo of ‘beauty’ is fleeting for most. We believe in finding inspiration in the natural world around us and reminding ourselves we are of this magnificence. Not only will we make more ethical and green choices about our beauty regimens, but we can rediscover and activate this natural magnificence in ourselves. With over 20 years of industry experience and now a practicing Clinical Herbalist, our host Michelle Rosetta seeks to support our natural beauty not only from the outside, but from inside as well.
Join Michelle as she covers topics such as skin sag, swelling, hormonal impact on the skin, menopausal belly, your beauty mindset and vibration, and even the best shade of nontoxic blush for the season. With a panel of neighbours from next door along with experts in their fields, we as a community will delve into products, activities, and tips that will support your beauty. Subsequently, TRU Beauty Confessions will offer a safe space to discuss how we really feel about our transforming bodies and what may be helpful to prop up the other integral, but unspoken, aspects of a beautiful self including the emotional, mental and energetic. We refuse to fade out into the background and will continue to be bold and beautiful in every season of this life journey. We cannot wait to dive in!

About the Episode:
We talk about what it means to be the Thunder Bay Radio Diva and grow up behind the mic. We ask Dee if she believes in the idea that growing gracefully is possible? Do we really get more beautiful with age. Dee discusses how embracing yourself especially as we get older allows others to relate to us in a real way, and connection to others being the ultimate impact in our world. We discuss how our friends influence how we see ourselves, for better or worse. We get down and dirty about Botox, and what Dee’s experience was. How do we know a beauty procedure is right for us? Does altering our bodies get in the way of the personal journey to connect with our inner self? Learning to be ourselves can one of the most difficult things to do, but one of the greatest gifts you can offer to yourself and your community.

About the Episode:
Michelle and Amber not only give us some advice on runny eyeliner, but they discuss how what another may say to you from the perspective of their own story can have severe negative impact on how you see yourself and the roles you choose to play. Amber discusses what a healed, whole, and mature person means to her. She is passionate about women, and men too, taking back their own narratives and having the courage to be their most authentic selves. She is not scared to voice how she feels about the world around her and realizes the importance of showing up as your full self to the table. Amber discusses how toxic femineity and masculinity ages us and can make us ill. We know exterior beauty and even celebrity beauty has little to do with whether our partners cheat on us or not, so what is it then? How discernment and free will is necessary when partaking in social media and the world around us. We can choose not to participate, so that we may leave space to be who we really are. This is how we can wake up, break the beauty curse, and open to the destiny meant for our lives.

About the Episode
Mindy discusses what she learned about herself, the health and beauty industry, and self-love during her long-time career in the sports and fitness model industry. Mindy confesses the moment she realized this industry that she had helped develop was not serving her community the way she had initially perceived. She recognized that looking like a superhero on the outside and asking your body to be its best physical self, does not necessarily translate to inner confidence or self-love. After a traumatic event Mindy realized it was necessary to course correct and choose an alternative way to act in the world. Mindy shares ways she has found true inner acceptance, and why it is important for the whole self. We discuss the three factors to premature aging, and how a water fast may be one way to reduce the impact on our body and skin.
Guest Bio:
Mindy Heather Blackstien, together with her husband Jeffrey Kippel, are pioneers in the fitness and bodybuilding world having helped to spearhead these niche cultures. They created the World Natural Sports Organization (WNSO), founded The FAME Agency, produced the FAME World Tour, created Fit Connections with Robert Kennedy, and published FAME Magazine. As a result, people from all backgrounds, experience levels, age groups and ethnicities successfully transformed into bodybuilders, fitness models and athletes. Many went on to become top influencers, cover models, sponsored athletes, world champions and stars.
Despite this, and after running FAME for about a decade, Mindy came to the realization that being FIT goes beyond appearance. Just because someone looks like a superhero, doesn’t mean they feel like one. Being a solutionary, she chose to discover how to fill this void and course correct. Fueled by a vision, she immersed herself in empowerment education, mentored under leaders in their field and set the intent to discover the people, products and philosophies that could truly help others love better how they think, function and feel.
As a result, she became a whole life coach, Thai yoga massage instructor, metaphysical minister, and non-surgical surgeon along the way. Currently Mindy has a show on the Doc STAR TV network. She co-created Rethink Fitness, a masterclass and certification course for personal trainers, and is set to travel the world to deliver it. She sits on the Board of Advisors for The Social Universe (TSU). She just authored a book with her husband —The Ridiculous Adventures of Serbinand — that is both humourous and empowering. And, she is developing a gamified movement to help anyone self-love and self-heal.

About the Episode:
Michelle and Anna discuss what it means to be aligned with self even when it may be difficult to stick to the path, how the idea of beauty shifted for Anna from being called flat chested in Grade 6, to an introduction of beauty in the music industry during the era of Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera, eventually coming into her own and realizing her light comes from the inside to emphasis the external physical body. We talk about how simple breath can divert not only bad behaviour but bad photos. Anna explains how she was able to begin the reconnection with self and quiet the mental chatter, when a drummer in her band asked her to come to a yoga class. Anna offers simple, accessible yoga poses and breathing techniques to bring oxygen back to the skin, detox the body, and reduce inflammation. Anna allows us into her emotional space and personal growth in a very authentic and meaningful way.
Bio:
Polish, Canadian, singer, songwriter and performer. She has a smoky-pop voice, animated stage presence, and a sexy one-of-the-boys kind of personality that ranks up there with Gwen Stefani and Debbie Harry. Toronto’s own, Anna Cyzon is a bona fide rock star. Born in Krakow Poland, Cyzon came to Canada with her family in 1990. She attended the University of Toronto where she obtained a Bachelor of Arts in Criminology. Her career in media began publicly when she auditioned for Canadian Idol in 2004.
A former Top 20 Idol finalist, MTV Canada host, Cyzon represented her homeland in the Eurovision Song Contest in 2010, placing second in the pre-selections with her song “Love Me" from herself titled independent debut. She’s since followed with the release of a 7 song EP, a full-length Polish and English album, Letters to Love, from which she started releasing singles in 2019. Her highly infectious “Wannabe", a collaboration with British- Canadian producer Alex Reid, can also be heard on Spotify and the music video (shot in Olon, Ecuador) has over 3 million views on YouTube.
In December 2018, while finishing writing and recording L2L with long time friend and Toronto producer, La Flamme, Cyzon released “Mistletoe”, an original Christmas song she and La Flamme co-wrote. Following the original, there was also a cover of "Merry Little Christmas" (2019). But it wasn't until 2021 that Cyzon would release her most personal songs yet "Lay Your Body" and "Losing You", about her breakup. In addition, that year, she recorded and released a Polish duet, "Pierwszy Raz" with Pawel Nawrocki, and shot a music video in the city in which she was born. Cyzon is looking forward to continuing to release new material and share music with her fans. "Songs give me purpose. Hope my voice and lyrics resonate with the beat of your heart."

29 AUG 2022 · About the Episode:
Michelle books herself a Cosmetic Acupuncture appointment with Dr. Dori and we have the pictures to prove it! Through the years Michelle has looked at clean products, exercise and good diet to keep her skin glowing, but as she begins to round the bend into 50, she is interested in finding out about potentially more invasive procedures without surgery. This non-surgical face lift helps to promote collagen production, lift sagging skin, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Does it hurt!? Does it work? And why does it work? Not to mention we had an online epiphany as to why managing our emotions and allowing these forces to release through our face is so very important to our overall health. We talk about collagen, the eleven lines, Botox, and robot models, all within the wealth of knowledge Dr. Dori has to bring to our community from Chinese medicine to her naturopathic wisdom.

About the Episode:
It sounds easy to check your inner battery, but how many of us check our energy levels throughout the day? You cannot run a car on a depleted battery, neither can your body run on limited energy. When our internal energy stores are low, Jennifer explains how this impacts all areas of our lives, including the way we feel about how we look and how we appear to others. If we do not learn how to care for this inner battery, there is no getting to the gym, or trying new recipes, or getting off the couch to enjoy the sunlight. In short, we cannot get the glow with no go! Jennifer shares how her own life was impacted by not checking in with herself, and how this practice changed the way she moved through her day and the activities she chose to do. She offers us a few of her unique tools and daily practices that we can do at home to recharge our beauty battery. Get a piece of paper, a pencil and join in.

About the Episode
In this episode Nikki, Jamaican born, discusses her personal struggles with how she looked and what the world told her was beautiful. She shares how this impacted her health, and how her efforts to change her body to fit an ideal ultimately harmed her health and well being. She walks us through important relationships, how the role of motherhood, and her faith helped her to own her ‘thick’ beautiful, and from requiring external validation to finding true acceptance from within. We look at how this inspired her clothing line and the advice she has for others in coming to terms with their own lines, while being your best self. We discuss her beauty secrets as a gorgeous 54-year-old who spends much of her time under the bright lights. Nikki tells us her musts to keep her skin, hair, and body camera ready, including a few from childhood that we only now understand the importance of as adults. We are given a insight into how being bold, allowing for vibrancy, owning it, and having fun can bring beauty to any body.

Guest: Alicia Bucknor, The Royal Artist
About the Episode
There is beauty in adversity, and Alicia is a testament to this. Motherhood and a traumatizing car accident asked our guest to re-evaluate her priorities, how she saw herself, and her role in the community. We discuss fashion to sea moss, and the importance of just doing ‘something’ during the day for our health and fitness. Alicia shares her passion to empower not only her girls but the wider community to understand how special and royal they really are. A beauty crown is not something we fight for at a pageant, it is something we must learn to crown ourselves with, this being something only you can do for you. We discuss the importance of our children understanding early that the idea of beauty is more than just the clothes you wear, how you look, or what other’s think, it is about a resonance that can only come from the inside. When we discover this vibrational beauty in ourselves, the entire world including all the unique people we see during the day becomes a masterpiece.

20 APR 2022 · TRU Beauty Confessions is a part of the EcoParent Podcast Network: www.ecoparent.ca/podcasts
Guest: Zhana Dmitryuk, Founder, Owner and Instructor of Flexspace Studios
About the Episode:
It is always about the lines, and in this episode Michelle and Zhana take on the saying, “no pain, no gain,’ at least when that comes to the world of beauty and the body. Is a healthy, fit body not within our reach, if for whatever reason we can no longer sweat it out with the latest hardcore fitness phenomenon!? We look at how ‘gentle’ does not just benefit your overall well being but gets the results you are looking for. Zhana explores the unrealistic view of her body through the eyes of the dance world, while also breaking down physical barriers as to what is possible. She shares how she frees herself from a limiting medical and societal narrative by listening to her body. Zhana walks us through her journey from illness, to discovery, to recovery, and now a whole-body vitality. We are excited to share Zhana’s beauty secrets and exercise tips that anyone can do from home to start their own healthy and healing fitness journey.
Guest Bio:
Zhana is a stretching instructor and owner of FLEXSPACE STUDIOS, a fitness studio that teaches stretching as a workout. Zhana was enamoured with the dance world as a young child but was unable to participate do to a debilitating childhood illness that left her watching from the side lines. When she got out into the world as a young adult, she wanted to try everything and discovered her passion for movement in her late 20's. Nonetheless, by pushing her body from zero to full out, she found her body falling apart from a lack of balance between spending hours at her desk job and a passion for her pole fitness hobby. She was looking for foundational fitness that would help bridge the gaps in her strength and flexibility and allow her to live pain-free, as well as find freedom of movement in any activity that she chose to take on. She found this in stretching, and, 3 years later, has left her corporate job to teach and run her studio full-time. Zhana specializes in teaching adults with no prior movement background, and those who have always thought themselves to be inflexible. She takes special pride and joy in unlocking an individual's potential and proving to them that they can be stronger and more flexible than they ever thought they could be possible.

The advertised status quo of ‘beauty’ is fleeting for most. We believe in finding inspiration in the natural world around us and reminding ourselves we are of this magnificence. Not only will we make more ethical and green choices about our beauty regimens, but we can rediscover and activate this natural magnificence in ourselves. With over 20 years of industry experience and now a practicing Clinical Herbalist, our host Michelle Rosetta seeks to support our natural beauty not only from the outside, but from inside as well.

We refuse to fade out into the background and will continue to be bold and beautiful in every season of this life journey. We cannot wait to dive in!
