On this episode of Finding Your Bliss, Celebrity Interviewer and Bliss Coach Judy Librach is joined by Sherry Gallant, who’s back on the show again for a new and fascinating conversation. Sherry always knew she was intuitive, but it wasn’t until March 2002, when she experienced a horrible car accident, that she truly believed in her abilities. Months before her accident, Sherry began to feel premonitions — something bad was on the horizon. On that day in March, a driver made a quick decision resulting in his vehicle colliding with Sherry’s, and the car ultimately spun out of control towards her door. With Sherry’s life in danger, she felt as if someone took her out of her car, giving her no recollection of the impact or pain of the crash. When she came to, she was in a cemetery only steps away from a loved one’s grave - her very close friend who had passed away in 1993, whom Sherry named her son after in 1994. Sherry’s experience reaffirmed her connection to the spirit world; she knew that it was her friend who saved her life on that March day. Even her injuries, which should have been much more severe in light of her accident, were relatively minimal. Sherry knew then that this moment was her spiritual re-awakening and vowed to accept all spiritual signs and signals from then on. Now, with almost 20 years of experience, Sherry has become a leading voice in the movement surrounding mediumship, self-help and connections to the spiritual world. Sherry’s hope is that her experience will inspire others to connect with their own loved ones who they have lost and find their own spiritual connection. Sherry knows that she was put on a journey to help as many people as possible, by using the best of all her gifts, talent and knowledge. Using her training as a Grief Coach, Regulated Acupuncturist, Holistic Nutritionist, Reflexologist, and a member of the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine (retired), Sherry is able to provide her clients with perspective like no other. Also on the program, we have talented singer-songwriter, Tik Tok and Instagram sensation, Liz Lieber, who’s back again with more music and the latest news about her upcoming shows and all of her Instagram, Tik Tok and Facebook LIVES. With her velvet alto vocals and more hair than she knows what to do with, Liz Lieber is an NYC-based singer-songwriter known for her lush, soulful sound. Influenced by artists like Carole King, Sara Bareilles, and Amy Winehouse, she brings a unique blend of honesty and sass to her music. Liz discovered her musical passions at a young age, starting piano lessons in first grade and adding voice lessons three years later. With a mission to spread her love of harmonies and catchy hooks around the world, Liz continues to captivate audiences with her powerful voice and infectious energy. You can catch Liz performing live weekly on Facebook and TikTok, as well as sharing fresh tunes across her social media pages. You can follow us @theblissminute on Instagram, TikTok and Facebook.

On this episode of Finding Your Bliss, Celebrity Interviewer and Bliss Coach Judy Librach is joined by author and celebrated international yoga teacher, Reema Datta, who’s here to talk about her latest book “The Yogi’s Way: Transform Your Mind, Health, and Reality,” which empowers readers to break free from the destructive tendencies of their minds and experience lasting peace. The book is a beautiful, very well written, inspirational, insightful and practical guide on how to achieve this. And the wonderful lessons and practices throughout the book are rooted in yogic wisdom, cutting edge science and the realities of modern life. Reema Datta is a teacher, speaker, and mantra singer based in Taos, New Mexico. She founded The Yogi’s Way® to offer a holistic and healing approach to yoga, emphasizing emotional well-being as a cornerstone to transformation. Reema is the author of The Yogi’s Way: Transform Your Mind, Health, and Reality (New World Library, 2025), blending ancient yogic wisdom with practical tools for modern life. As a woman in this field, she brings a much-needed and often missing female perspective, guiding students toward freedom from kleshas – destructive emotions – and realization of svadharma, their unique purpose. Raised in a family of yogis between the U.S. and India, Reema was immersed in Vedic wisdom from birth. Her grandmother, an Ayurvedic practitioner, embodied resilience in the face of adversity, while her grandfather, a Vedic scholar, introduced her to yoga philosophy and pranayama. From the womb, she was surrounded by her mother’s mantra singing. Since 2002, Reema has led yoga and Ayurveda retreats in over 20 countries, working with luminaries such as Sting, Paul Simon, Edie Brickell, Sujatha Baliga, and Zainab Salbi, as well as health professionals and students worldwide. In 2012, she fully devoted herself to The Yogi’s Way, an innovative methodology incorporating movement, breathwork, mantra, meditation, visualization, and the wisdom of the original yoga texts, including the Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita, and Yoga Sutras. Her HEAL YOURSELF NOW™ 70-minute sequence supports this transformational journey. Reema holds degrees from Vassar College and the London School of Economics and previously worked for the United Nations. She is also the co-author of Sacred Sanskrit Words for Yoga, Chant, and Meditation and has released mantra albums through Nettwerk Music. Reema is a certified Ashtanga yoga and Tibetan heart yoga instructor and is an Ayurvedic therapist. Her greatest teacher? Her feisty, strong, independent daughter.

On this episode of Finding Your Bliss, Celebrity Interviewer and Bliss Coach Judy Librach is joined by Linda Kohanov! Linda Kohanov is the author of the Tao of Equus, which has now been revised and reprinted in a new and exciting edition. She's on the show to talk all about her connection with horses and how they can teach us to have better relationships and be better humans on this planet. A 5 time author and an internationally recognized author, speaker, and educator, she specializes in exploring the power and potential of the horse-human bond. Linda specializes in developing and teaching socially intelligent leadership, nonverbal communication, and other advanced human development skills. In 1997, she founded a Southern Arizona-based collective of educators, coaches, counselors, and horse professionals exploring the power and potential of the incredible connection between horses and humans. The organization, Eponaquest Worldwide, has grown to serve clients on six continents. Linda’s first bestselling book The Tao of Equus was selected as one of the top books of 2001 by Amazon.com and received appreciative reviews in diverse publications. This title, and her subsequent four books, have been translated into French, German, Dutch, and Czech, and are used as texts at universities. In 2013, Linda’s fourth book The Power of the Herd: A Nonpredatory Approach to Social Intelligence, Leadership and Innovation explored what horses have to teach us about leadership and social intelligence, with extensive historical and scientific research showing why the world’s most innovative and effective leaders, from Alexander the Great to the Buddha to George Washington and Winston Churchill, were exceptional horsemen who honed the nonverbal skills associated with leadership presence on horseback. The book also translates the practical skills horses teach directly to use at work, school, home, and in religious, political and social activism contexts. Linda’s fifth book The Five Roles of a Master Herder, was published in June 2016, and has been translated into multiple languages. Over the last decade, Linda has appeared at numerous conferences, universities and retreat centers, including the Organization Development Conference, the Omega Institute in New York, Naropa University in Boulder, CO, the University of Arizona, Prescott College, the International Transpersonal Conference, Hollyhock British Columbia, and the 2008 Equine Guided Education Conference, among many other venues. She has been a leadership trainer for Raytheon since 2007, and has also led trainings for executive teams at Nike, Chubb Insurance, Best Friends Animal Sanctuary, and the Bensman Group of financial advisors, among other companies. In 2014, she led a master class on the Five Roles of a Master Herder in Paris at the Executive MBA Program “Leading Innovation in a Digital World” de l’Institut Mines-Telecom. Didier Tranchier, head of this international program, wrote that this presentation “changed my life and the life of everyone in the conference room. Explaining the differences between a dominant and a leader, and the usefulness of predatory power when balanced with non-predatory power were real insights to understand how companies are working and how we can improve our efficiency. With very simple words and great examples coming from the world of horses and traditional herding cultures, Linda explained the power of groups and how to build relationships that can enable any individual to steer and leverage large and powerful organizations.” Linda is considered one of the founders of the field of Equine-Facilitated Experiential Learning, which teaches people how to excel in life by practicing innovative leadership, relationship, nonverbal communication, and emotional and social intelligence skills through safe, engaging, non-riding activities with horses. She has also worked with a number of psychologists in the field of Equine-Facilitated Psychotherapy, and reg ...…

Ben is a Toronto-born actor and artist educator who has been honoured to be part of a 10-month fellowship called Sprout Ideas Fellowship for young social innovators. Through the fellowship, Ben has been working on a project to create a play based on the themes from the collective book called “Everyday Stories” where the vision was to break down the stigma around disability. He has maintained that vision by taking the themes and concepts from that book off of the page and to the stage. Many of the artists from these projects originally took part in a social group Ben co-created 10 years ago called “Everyday Friends.” The vision of this social network was to fill a gap in the social lives of youth and young adults with disabilities. Ben received the Community Inclusion Award of Excellence from UJA Toronto in 2018. Ben has a passion for acting and musical theatre, as well as advocating for disability arts. He has performed in many musicals, plays and dance performances. Ben is always promoting disability awareness on social media and is always advocating for the disability community. What better way to advocate for a marginalized community than the power of stage and stories? He is a community-engaged artist who has worked with many diverse groups of people. Erica May-Wood is a professional actor, theatre maker and teaching artist. Her practice and passion of the last many years has focused on guiding collective creation work - with teens for the Hamilton Fringe Festival, with under-housed adults via a touring St. Michael’s Hospital STAR show, in a commission from Harbourfront Centre for a new play by kids/for kids, and in a global project, involving seven countries during the pandemic lockdowns.
