About What Should We Call It?

In an effort to reach out to the world, we are attempting to podcast regarding mental health, wellness, and self-care. While we may deviate from the common theme, the various topics will still bring it back to how each idea relates to our overall health. We are still learning how to be healthy, and we want to share with you what we have learned. We hope that you enjoy this journey as much as we do. Any suggestions, comments, feedback, likes, and downloads are greatly appreciated! @oneofeightbillion_1o8b remona2017.blogspot.com

   Woogie Woogie

   This is a short story that I wrote for World Storytelling Day in March 2026. I was not able to tell it then, but I polished up the writing to keep it just over 5 minutes. I suppose the term short story can have a few meanings. However, there was not enough time given to really build up suspense or allow for a meaningful resolution. I hope you enjoy it anyway. It is meant to enlighten, teach, and horrify! Okay, it might only be scary if you are 5. But, according to AI, I could turn it into a YA novel...you never know. And you would have heard it here first ;) remona2017.blogspot.ca

   Dàjiā Hǎo - A Continuation of Merci D'Avoir Choisi Une Bonne Santé Mentale

   In today’s very special Mother’s Day Episode #10, we welcome back our guest, Chris from Episode #1 to follow up with his health and wellness journey. In the well-told story from Episode #1, we learned of Chris’ health decline starting when his father fell ill. He became an instant caregiver resulting in his own stress-related and mental health issues, including panic attacks, Bell's Palsy, insomnia, TMD (temporomandibular disorder), and finally the horror of gastroesophageal reflux disease, with dysphagia. Now, 9 months later, we ask Chris to provide an update of what he considers to be self-care and how he has learned to manage his stress, going forward. While the quiz game and rapid fire questions may have given us a small insight into how Chris is doing today, we also offer up some holistic options, alternative to medication and self-medication, including box breathing, CBT (cognitive behaviour therapy), soft fascination, interoceptive exposure, bilateral stimulation, high-sensory, low-thought, and mammalian dive reflex. If you have ever felt "checked out" or overwhelmed, keep this episode saved so that you can try some of these tools when you are having trouble feeling grounded or emotionally regulated. Consistency is key and you never know which method could help you in a time of need. Please join us in this continuation of our journey to choose good mental health for Episode #10! @oneofeightbillion_1o8b Remona2017.blogspot.com

   Je Ne Sais Quoi

   During episode #9, we finally take the opportunity to interview my best friend from childhood. Michelle from Saskatchewan has been in my life during the good times and the bad times, but then I moved away, and we lost touch. Michelle and I reconnect in this special and heartwarming episode to talk about how she stays healthy through those long, cold winters in Saskatchewan. Self-care is a big theme in this episode, as Michelle has very busy days; between working full-time as an educational assistant and making sure that her mom's needs are met, she also has a lot of emotional load to take on from dating Rory and dealing with the grief of her father's sudden death. I hope you enjoy listening, as we get vulnerable with words that so often go unsaid. If you can get through the girl chat, there is a big reveal at the end of the episode. Don't forget to submit your answer for the poll, as we are curious about where you stand on the use of AI. This episode was powered by Gemini AI. remona2017.blogspot.com (remona2017.blogspot.com)

   Love Versus Abuse

   In today's episode #8, we have guest Chaya Garcia, The Epic Love Expert. As the host of The 100% Podcast, she illuminates through her interviews, that we are all 100% effed up and still, simultaneously, 100% lovable! Chaya is the founder of the growing #LoveLighter movement, a movement for women to learn how to light up their own love and choose a partner based on attracting someone who will only add to her light! She is an expert on all things relationships: first dates, narcissism, dating with intention, and saving marriages before the first date. She is on a mission to revolutionize marriage and relationship dynamics by bringing people back home to themselves first. We had a great conversation of how hard it is to educate women on what it means to be loved and to consider yourself to be loveable. Many times, women end up in abusive relationships because they don't believe that they are worthy of love. Chaya offers a 6-month Masterclass for singles and married women with weekly live coaching calls to learn how to love yourself again. She has written multiple (unpublished) books and offers further advise on her YouTube channel: @EpicLoveExpertYou can book a call with Chaya here: www.connectwithchaya.com (www.connectwithchaya.com) P.S.

   Nanabush and the Dancing Ducks Storytelling

   In honor of World Storytelling Day, I have a story to present. This is a story about Nanabush, the Spirit, who likes to get into trouble. He is the grandson of Nokomis and son of the West Wind, or the Sun. In telling this story, with permission from the author's son, I sought to find the true origin of Nanabush. The author had spent time relearning the stories on her reserve. I have also found an article stating that Nanabush is the Anishinaabe (Ojibway) sacred teacher and trickster. There are 10 stories written by Dr. Daphne Odjig, all as entertaining as this one! https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/daphne-odjig (https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/daphne-odjig) My blog:Child of COVID-19 (https://remona2017.blogspot.com/)

   Save The Lighthouse

   This is not a regular podcast episode but a figurative "cry for help". Save the Lighthouse is a real lighthouse up for sale in my community. Please listen to my fictional story, and, if you feel inspired, please donate! I started researching lighthouses when I was asked to tell a story for a World Storytelling Day event where I live. I found that the Port Burwell Lighthouse has been in dire need of restoration, and it needs to stay in our community, as it has been a historical property for decades. I have written a short story about it, in hopes of inspiring you to donate: https://www.gofundme.com/f/save-the-port-burwell-lighthouse (https://www.gofundme.com/f/save-the-port-burwell-lighthouse) Thank you!

    4K Versus Streamers

    Join us for Podcast #4 as we listen to the history of physical media from VHS to 4K movies, and we talk with my husband, Ryan, about the importance of high-quality video. We will introduce some neuroscience from M.D. Shirley M. Mueller's Inside The Head of a Collector: Neuropsychological Forces at Play, learn valuable insights from Werner Muensterberger about the difference between hoarding and collecting, and finally, discuss attachment styles from Cheralyn Leeby, Ph.D., as we try to deep dive into Ryan's brain to find his motivation for collecting 4K movies and whether or not he's willing to declutter for the sake of my sanity! remona2017.blogspot.com

    Back to School Blues

    Join Chris as he hosts Podcast #3 in an episode that is very relevant at this time of year: lamenting the end of summer vacation and preparing to head back to school! Listen to guest Remona Johnson as we discuss the three aspects of raising a child in a post-COVID education system. Anxiety is just one aspect of the challenges that students face today.

    DC Versus Marvel

    Join us for Podcast Episode #2 with Ryan, who will be speaking about his journey from childhood, collecting Spiderman and X-Men comics, and how the comic book industry has transformed over the decades to become larger than life, or at least as big as an IMAX screen. Follow along as we describe the history of comic books, decade by decade, while Ryan provides his perspective and input, especially on what it felt like to learn that a comic book from his childhood was becoming a wide-screen movie. It was a child's dream come true! We will discuss how to find comic books that could increase in value one day, or at least, how to not get duped into overpaying for one that doesn't have much value. Finally, we will dive into what Ryan's motivation was for collecting and what actually might pull collectors into wanting to collect more and more. A great reference is a book by Shirley M. Mueller, M.D., called Inside The Head of a Collector: Neuropsychological Forces at Play, but we ran out of time to psychoanalyze Ryan...this time! Please like and download, as this podcast is a mere 38 minutes, compared to 1:23 for the first one. English language. remona2017.blogspot.com
