On this episode of Finding Your Bliss, Celebrity Interviewer and Bliss Coach Judy Librach is joined by Rose Barroso. Entrepreneur, luxury real estate broker, award-winning home builder, and now author of the inspirational new book, Indestructible: Transforming Survival into Success. Rose Barroso has built an empire in two of the most male-dominated industries in the world—luxury real estate and custom home construction. Now, she’s breaking new ground as an author, with her powerful debut memoir, Indestructible: Transforming Survival into Success, releasing January 2026 through Sutherland House Experts. Born in Portugal and raised in Toronto, her story is not one of privilege or easy breaks. Abandoned by those meant to protect her and raised in a shattered family, she learned early on that survival meant building walls around her heart, around her dreams, around her very sense of self. But walls couldn’t silence the echoes of self-doubt, fear, and rage that lingered long after the bruises faded. Indestructible, rips the mask off a life built in defiance of deep trauma. With raw vulnerability and unapologetic strength, Rose Barroso exposes the hidden scars of her childhood and reveals how pain shaped her, tested her, and ultimately forged her into a tenacious woman who conquered her inner demons—and the boardroom. This is more than a memoir. It’s a battle cry for anyone who’s ever been told they wouldn’t amount to anything. It’s a roadmap for women in spaces where they’re underestimated, overlooked, and undervalued. And it’s proof that healing doesn’t make you soft; it makes you unstoppable. “The strongest women are often built from the hardest truths; the deepest wounds can produce the strongest spirits. As Rose says, “Healing doesn’t make you soft…it makes you unstoppable.” Join us today at 1 PM on Finding Your Bliss. You can follow us @theblissminute on Instagram, TikTok and Facebook.

Celebrity Interviewer and Bliss Coach Judy Librach is joined by Michelle Sadowski, Jennifer Small and Vivian Schwartz Kalfon of The Legacy Project. Also on the program, we have Shira Lev from The Reena Foundation. The Legacy Project is a charitable production company based in the Greater Toronto Area that was established in 2024. The Legacy Project’s mission is to bring together talented community members with a shared love of philanthropy and a passion for the arts. The Legacy Project prioritizes fundraising for Canadian-Jewish organizations. The concept of Tikkun Olam, or repairing the world, is a pillar of Judaism and an important part of Jewish culture. In 2025, they put on their inaugural show, Volume 1. They were fortunate enough to have 750 people in attendance to watch 3 sold-out shows, and were able to donate almost $65,000 to the Reena Foundation. That first show, Volume 1, and their upcoming show Volume 2, is in support of the remarkable Reena Foundation, which raises funds to improve the lives of people with Autism and other developmental disabilities, mental health challenges, and other diverse health needs. As the fundraising arm of Reena, they support transformational housing projects and vital programs, including programs during the day, respite care and employment opportunities. The support of the community has helped improve the lives of individuals supported by Reena, by funding important initiatives. For instance, in their first show which they called Volume 1, they donated almost $65,000 to the Reena Foundation, which meant that 60 Reena residents were able to participate in summer camp this last year. The Legacy Project is now proud to be producing their second show, Volume. 2. This May, 2026. This show is a music revue, where the talented cast perform unique versions of classic hits from the 80s, 90s and 2000s! Everyone will have the opportunity to dance in their seats, and sing along to every number! And their Sunday matinee performance will feature a live performance by the incredible Reena All-Star Choir.

On this episode of Finding Your Bliss, Celebrity Interviewer and Bliss Coach Judy Librach is joined by celebrity publicist, founder of OverCat Communications, and now author, Audrey Hyams Romoff, to talk about her riveting new memoir: The Ripple Eclipse: Turning the Tide of Inherited Trauma. In The Ripple Eclipse: Turning the Tide of Inherited Trauma, Audrey Hyams Romoff masterfully navigates between two seemingly disparate worlds: the glamorous, high-stakes realm of celebrity public relations and her ongoing struggle to break free from the grip of inherited trauma. With unflinching candour, wit, and a veteran storyteller’s ear for dramatic moments, Hyams Romoff expands the lexicon of silent suffering, introducing a new way to describe how pain ripples across generations and obscures joy. For over thirty years, Hyams Romoff has been a fixture on Canada’s cultural landscape, running the renowned agency OverCat Communications and shaping the public image of A-list clients, including Lady Gaga, Sarah Jessica Parker, Katy Perry, will.i.am, Isabella Rossellini, Timothy Olyphant, and Shania Twain. She gives readers a front- row seat to remarkable behind-the-scenes moments of celebrity culture, rendered with cinematic flair. Amidst the sparkling lights, Hyams Romoff is haunted by the dark spectre of family trauma. Hyams Romoff grew up in the shadow of silence—her mother and grandmother survived the Holocaust but never spoke of it. One of Auschwitz’s youngest survivors, her mother was emotionally unreachable. Her father became her lifeline. At forty-five, tragedy struck: her parents were found dead together in their garage. Her mother’s suicide was clear; her father’s death remains a mystery. From that darkness, she emerged with a vow: to confront the trauma that impacted four generations of women in her family. Hyams Romoff’s titular metaphor, “ripple eclipse,” neatly captures how trauma, particularly one as profound as surviving Auschwitz, is not confined to the person who endures it. Instead, its impact ripples outward, affecting children, grandchildren, and generations beyond. The pain can be so great that it covers over feelings of warmth and happiness, much like the sun being blotted out during a solar eclipse. With this phrase, Hyams Romoff offers a new way to identify a legacy carried by many but rarely acknowledged. Refusing to pass darkness to her daughter, Lindsay, Hyams Romoff chooses to break her grandmother and mother’s tradition of suffering in silence. However, establishing new lines of communication can be a bumpy, enriching and amusing journey. With a PBS film crew following them, she and Lindsay visit Auschwitz and confront their family’s demons. Hyams Romoff rejects the false promise of finding “closure.” Instead, she’s learning to walk, hand in hand with Lindsay, beside their family trauma. A beautifully crafted story of struggle, survival and spectacle, The Ripple Eclipse expands the vocabulary of inherited trauma. Hyams Romoff’s journey will speak to anyone navigating the complex interplay between family legacy and personal growth. AUDREY HYAMS ROMOFF is also president of OverCat Communications, a highly respected communications agency specializing in luxury clients. She is a wife, fiercely devoted mother, and over-the top animal lover. Audrey expertly manages a complex, multifaceted existence, wearing a fabulous array of designer outfits. She holds a PhD in compartmentalization and excels at creating the illusion of living a perfectly manicured life. Join Audrey and her daughter Lindsay on a decades-long journey of intergenerational trauma and crushing grief, affecting four generations of women in their family.

The previous year, Laila’s eponymous release won her a JUNO for “Vocal Jazz Album of the Year” and top prize at the Canadian Songwriting Competition in the Jazz category. Laila was the youngest-ever double winner at Canada’s National Jazz Awards, when she was named “SOCAN Composer of the Year” and “Keyboardist of the Year”, and she received her first JUNO nomination for Tracing Light in 2011. When Laila isn’t on stage or in the studio, she’s busy hosting CBC Music’s national radio show, Saturday Night Jazz – a weekly program broadcast to millions of listeners across Canada. And while she continues to earn high honours in the jazz world, Laila’s signature sound transcends genre – “masterfully mixes jazz and pop, bringing virtuosity and unpredictability to songs that are concise and catchy” (Washington Post).
