Unbinding the Chains of Generational Trauma
“Puro ka kasi cellphone” is the phrase that every Filipino Gen Zs has always heard growing up. Headache? Puro ka kasi cellphone. Stomach ache? Kaka-cellphone mo 'yan. Fever? Oh, that's probably because of using your phone too. Little did they know, technologies and social media are gradually becoming the platform that lets this generation breathe from the ‘gaslighting’ they’ve been raised to.

Silicon Valley bank collapsed, and federal regulators took control, impacting tech startups, and leaving customers in limbo, with concerns about the broader economy
Silicon Valley bank failure results in federal regulators assuming control, impacting tech startups and leaving customers uncertain. Concerns arise regarding the broader economy. The Federal Reserve utilized quantitative easing as a measure to boost the economy during the financial crisis. Interest rates were reduced to near zero, and quantitative easing was initiated by purchasing government securities. Banks exploited the Fed's program designed to aid the real economy, focusing on maximizing profits quickly. The Fed's role in the economy has evolved to become the primary driver of economic growth in the United States. Democratic institutions are losing effectiveness, leading to a reliance on non-democratic entities such as the central bank. The Fed's loose monetary policies have led to a surge in the stock market and increased risk-taking. Quantitative easing artificially inflated stock prices, resulting in a temporary market boost. Wealth inequality has been exacerbated by quantitative easing, as lower interest rates drive stock prices up, benefiting the wealthiest individuals. The American dream is perceived as unattainable, with the system appearing rigged. Donald Trump's populist campaign highlighted the system's failure to support the poor and middle class. Government inaction and political gridlock have impeded economic investments and infrastructure development. The tax reduction policy has further exacerbated economic inequality. Jerome Powell's appointment as Federal Reserve chairman resulted in the hastening of interest rate hikes.

There once was a time when most households only had one income. When most households only needed one income. Yes, this was a time that most of those households were married couples with kids. Now this version of the world seems like a dream, or a fantasy. It makes me wonder if this is just Canada, or the whole world? Is it just the reality of living in Canada?

Death: Embracing Life's Final Journey with Compassion
Death is often avoided and hushed away in our culture. We learn not to talk about it, along with topics like sex and religion. Our avoidance of these subjects has made us unprepared for dealing with death and supporting those who grieve.1 But it's time to change this and see the value in discussing death freely.1
