The Jack Shit Show

Tammy Phan is a high school drop out (much to the shegrin of her traditional Asian family) who found incredible success following her passion for all things luxurious. Now the owner of multiple, internationally successful companies, Tammy is here to talk about learning curves and future plans. 

The man crush of literally everyone who listens to this podcast (as proven by my inbox) has returned to finish what he started... and potentially win over the hearts of everyone on the Earth. Enjoy part two with Cole Bernier.

Tell my old teachers I still haven't used the Pythagorean theorem once, please. Learning about budgets, bank jargon, credit scores, and the stock market really would have served us all a lot better. But, better late than never, right?

Meet our new financial guru, Tori Fischer. I learned more in this conversation talking to her than I did through all my years of school. She's making numbers digestible, making banks less scary, and teaching us about how psychology is connected to your relationship with money in way more ways than we thought. YEW this is a good one! In the last episode of season 1, we're gearing up to take control over those pesky finances.

See you in the New Year for season 2!!

*Eminem voice* Guess who's back, back again...

If you haven't listened to part one with my girl, Natalie Maleschuk, you should go back and start there (Episode 25 Wild Ride), because in this one we are getting into the nitty gritty of ✨manifestation✨. I know you've heard the term, but do you really know what it is?  

Now before you roll your eyeballs at us, there is SCIENCE behind these methods - heck, we all learned about atoms and particles in elementary school so what if you start learning about the laws of vibration and how can you align yourself to be on the same wavelength as the things you really want in this life?

You are literal magic, baby, let's start putting that to good use.  

Say it with me - COMMUNITY IS EVERYTHING. 

A little funny group text between friends turned into PPG, a brand that we're about to watch take off right in front of our eyeballs. Driven by community and a love for mental health awareness, Sophie McLean has big plans for her little quarantine baby. With the official launch party happening next week, she pencilled us into her busy schedule to talk business, branding, mental health, and burning journals (and bridges that no longer serve us). 

Maddi Kempf-Stoltman is the embodiment of 'cowboy up'. After suffering a tremendous loss in her life, she used her undying grit and determination to build her dream life using rock-bottom as the foundation. She now runs a successful business, Level Up, is a professional barrel racer, and has even made appearances on television shows (most notably, The Grand Tour). She has documented every high and low along the journey for her faithful followers on her YouTube channel, Barrel Racer Life.

She constantly encourages all those in her reach to step out of their comfort zones and just do the damn thing. To know her is to love her, and we sure do love her. Please enjoy this conversation with one of my favourite lights at the end of the tunnel.

Things around here are getting curiouser and curiouser, but not without a whole lotta ✨work✨ behind it.  Meet my girlfriend, Natalie. She manifested her dream life and now works as a National Speaker and Strategist for the Tony Robins. She popped in to chat about positive mindset, signs from the universe, morning routines, and going for runs in Florida heat.  Let your ears be #blessed this week as we get ready to take on the world with love, light, and a little attitude.

When I say the glow up is real... 

Meet Pahnia, my sweet P, Fort Mac mama and one of my dearest friends. This week she's an open book on her eating disorder, past traumas, what it took to get her to where she's at (and she is *thriving*), and a whole heck of a lot of hilariously dramatic stories from our twenties. I look up to her on so many things and she has continuously taught me that it's ok to not be where I think I should be at on a certain timeline. Enjoy this long overdue, very honest and real conversation with one of my forever humans.

⚠️ TRIGGER WARNING - we're learning about the atrocity of residential schools and the finding of 215 babies in Kamloops by the Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc First Nation (my humblest apologies for not knowing the pronunciation).
