Unlock the Power of Positivity: Your Wellness Wake-Up Call
"Cancer, Heart Disease, Health, and Well-being — with a dose of laughter to keep us going.
These days, Cancer and Heart Disease affect far too many men and women.
Nothing truly prepares you for the shock of a diagnosis or the terrifying moment of chest pain followed by a heart attack or cardiac arrest.
In our podcast, we open up about our own journeys — from diagnosis and treatment to the vital support of family, friends, and the mental health battles in between. We dive into the resources available, both medical and financial, and share the ways outside support can make all the difference.
But it’s not all heavy. We also talk about everyday life — news, sports, hobbies, arts, crafts — the things that keep us smiling through the toughest times. Special guests join us too, bringing their own stories, experiences, and fresh perspectives.
Most importantly, our podcast is light-hearted, funny, relatable, and inspiring. It’s informative without being overwhelming — and once you tune in, you’ll want to keep coming back.
So join us, laugh with us, and remember: all we ask is just a little smile.

The Language of Loss
The boy's are joined again today by another special guest Debbie Briden Author of her new book "The Language of Loss"
Before retiring in October 2024, Debbie worked tirelessly for 2.5 years establishing a top-notch, bank-wide bereavement team. She spent six months researching how banks and customer service providers treat bereaved families, and we were surprised to learn that it’s often quite shocking.
Through Debbie's involvement in external bereavement and loss training, along with her work with bereaved families, She became familiar with various grief behaviours. Her years of management experience have also given her insight into behaviours exhibited in response to loss, whether it pertains to health, wealth, or happiness; these reactions are pretty similar to those associated with grief.
Debbie has taken everything she's learned and experienced and turned it into a book. It’s not all doom and gloom—it will resonate with everyone. The book reassures readers that how they respond to any situation is normal and perfectly okay.
Debbie kindly gives us a interview today which many will find interesting and will have experienced at some stage in their lives.
We hope you enjoy todays Podcast and hope it helps you understand grief and how you can deal with it.
Debbies book can be found on Amazon now by following the link below;
