Did you ever dream of building something with your best friend? Discover the inspiring story of April Brown and Sarah Sklash, who quit their jobs and purchased a roadside motel in Prince Edward County.

With hard work, dedication, and little experience, they transformed the dingy motel into a beautiful space reflecting life's sunshine and simple pleasures. Their entrepreneurial adventures caught the attention of Netflix, which produced Motel Makeover, a show about their next motel venture in Sauble Beach.

Today, The June Motel boasts three locations, including their latest project, the June in Beaver Valley, a cosy 8 room outpost, nestled in nature. This story is about following your heart and taking risks, believing in yourself and your vision, and on your terms. Join us as we learn how "The June" came to be, the inspiration behind its iconic pink doors, and why chasing dreams matters.

I am thrilled to introduce a new sponsor for Chatter that Matters. Mark Rolnick, EVP, Head of GreenShield Administration, then joins the show to talk about why small businesses matter and why they have launched GreenShield for Small Business to help small business owners promote employee well-being. A flexible benefit solution makes it easier to attract top talent so that small business owners spend more time doing what they do best - building a healthy business.

Today, I welcome Jeanne Beker, a global icon and an inductee into the Marketing Hall of Legends. Jeanne is also a dear friend and a trailblazer who has found success as a world-renowned fashion journalist, entrepreneur, author, keynote speaker, and, above all, a wonderful mom.

At age 72, Jeanne continues to fashion her destiny with passion, creativity and talent. In this candid 'chat to me about anything' session, Jeanne shares many beautiful stories, life lessons we can all benefit from, and how, instead of burying the news she had breast cancer, she used her platform to raise awareness and to help raise much-needed funds to tackle the disease.

Here is to the one and only Jeanne Beker.

This will define our country in the future: dreamers and doers who are taking on our most significant problems and then exporting their ideas and technology around the world.

For my Earths Day Show, I chatted with Phil De Luna. At age 32, he is among the most brilliant people I have ever interviewed. Phil has a great personality, radiates passion, and has a powerful connection to the human race.

Phil makes me feel optimistic about science's role in battling climate change.
I know you will enjoy his story, which also reflects the tapestry of Canada. A family of newcomers who came to Canada to improve their circumstances and a son who honours their sacrifice by making a positive dent in one of humanity's biggest problems.

Phil offers his five-step plan for saving our planet. He also discusses the carbon tax and offers ideas for better serving our planet and the Canadian economy.

I also included an interview with John Stackhouse, SVP of RBC. John is a nationally bestselling author and one of Canada's leading voices on innovation and economic disruption. He talks about the RBC Climate Action Institute.
