Facing Fear on Dead Man's Hill | Canada News
Today00:01:39Tap to summarizeNita Knapp conquered her deepest fear by riding a quad up Dead Man’s Hill — a brutal, rutted climb that forced her to face the terror she’d carried since childhood. Once paralyzed by anxiety over judgment, crowds, and isolation, she transformed her pain into purpose, launching a coaching business to help other women break free. The ride was terrifying — tires lifted, oil leaked, heart racing — but her husband’s encouragement and the stunning view at the top reminded her: courage isn’t the absence of fear, it’s choosing to move forward anyway. Now, she’s proof that stepping into discomfort unlocks beauty, growth, and the life you were meant to live. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

Yesterday00:02:05Tap to summarizeLiberal MP Parm Bains, who discovered he had only one kidney decades ago and received a transplant in 2022, is leading a powerful push for national kidney health reform. Backed by the Kidney Foundation of Canada’s new three-pronged framework—focused on prevention, equitable care, and research—he’s rallying support across party lines, including Conservative MP Ziad Aboultaif and Independent Senator Tony Loffreda. With kidney disease affecting one in ten Canadians and costing the economy over $10 billion annually, the initiative aims to shift the focus from treatment to early detection and proactive care, turning a silent killer into a preventable public health priority.
