Here and Now has launched a new series called I Just Called To Say Thank You, in which prominent Canadians thank someone who has had a significant impact on their life. Host Gill Deacon came up with the idea for the series after reflecting on a special person from her own past.
Neil Pasricha talks a lot. The New York Times bestselling author is well-known for his popular Ted Talk, "How do you maximize your tiny, short life?" But that might not have happened without the support of one special teacher, who the author recently got a chance to thank.
"There is no order to grief," CBC Radio's Gill Deacon writes. "It is a mountaintop from which we each descend by our own means; a path with sudden twists. My path of grieving took me down a very narrow, rocky incline a few weeks ago, and I began to lose my footing."
