#211 Horribly Lovely. With Jon Kohrs

11/7/2025
Jon Kohrs brings a deeply original voice to questions of identity, healing, and the messy, beautiful work of becoming. His writing defies genre, weaving symbolic narratives that are dreamlike, lyrical, and poetic, inviting readers into the raw, unfiltered beauty of being human. With roots in shamanism, the Enneagram, and Jungian alchemy, Jon explores the phenomenological experience of love—how it melts the hardened statues of identity and invites us to play with the clay of the soul. Through this work, he seeks to break the norms of expression and awaken truth in its most idiosyncratic, real, and uncomfortable forms.

#200 Parachutes for Pets. With Melissa David

8/22/2025
What if your dog saved your life and inspired a movement that’s now saving thousands more? That’s exactly what happened to Melissa David, a former law enforcement officer whose cancer diagnosis (& deep bond with her pup Charlie) led her to launch Parachutes for Pets, a powerful nonprofit that helps people in crisis keep their beloved animals safe. In this episode, Melissa shares her moving story & the ripple effect her work is having across Alberta and beyond. Melissa founded Parachutes for Pets in 2019, driven by the belief that pets are family and lifelines during our hardest days. After her dog Charlie helped her through cancer as a young adult, Melissa set out to ensure no one would have to choose between getting help and keeping their pet safe. A former RCMP employee, she now leads two Pet Advocacy Centres in Calgary and Edmonton and Canada’s most comprehensive pet safekeeping program, including a 24/7 Angel Team supporting first responders when pets need care. Her mission: to keep pets and people together, no matter the crisis. Her goal is to have Parachutes for Pets in each major Canadian City.

Allan emphasizes that ChatGPT alone is not enough and introduces a number of powerful tools to help individuals and businesses thrive with AI. He also shares his 4-step plan for levelling up in AI: 1. Subscribe to AI newsletters 2. Watch/listen to AI videos and podcasts daily 3. Use 3 AI tools every day 4. Explore and use one new AI tool each week ChatGPT 10:22 – 11:04 | 15:20 – 16:09 | 35:38 – 36:08 Discussed as the default AI tool people use, but Allan urges people to go beyond it.
