My new podcast is out today! @ChefPamFanjoy and I talk about all things conversation in the kitchen! Chef Pam shares so much practical wisdom. Tough conversations sometimes work better when you let them marinate or have them as leftovers the next day. You don't want to miss this!

Can you imagine calling 911 for a medical emergency but having no ambulances available? In 2021, there were 1,139 Code Red incidents in Toronto (0 ambulances available).

The Truth vs Many Truths
As a mediator, my job is not to determine The Truth, but to work with the many truths in front of me. https://t.co/g57OOgqYb4

[Deborah Graham @DeborahGraham15]

Family law lawyers are like settlement mid-wives in December, noticing whether it's time to push hard and cross the settlement finish line and when it's time to send a client home to wait for contractions to get closer together in the new year.

[Deborah Graham @DeborahGraham15]

I’ve been looking forward to this one!
