Season Eight of CKUA’s Notes on Wellness will feature a new voice from the host chair: Joe Hartfeil!
A familiar voice to CKUA listeners through On the Rise, Wax & Wane, and Morningsong, Hartfeil brings his experience as a broadcaster, interviewer and community storyteller to Notes on Wellness. For his part, Hartfeil is excited to share fresh perspectives on wellness with the CKUA community.
“I think it’s important. A lot of people carry CKUA with them wherever they go and throughout their day,” Hartfeil says. “You need to find wellness and ways to maximize how you’re living and relating to whatever experience it might be at any given time of day.”
Hartfeil is taking over for CKUA host Kate Stevens, who hosted Notes on Wellness for numerous seasons and hundreds of episodes. He plans to build on the segment’s foundation while exploring a broader range of conversations around health, wellbeing, and the ways people create balance in a busy and overwhelming world.
“The whole idea of setting aside time to prioritize yourself can seem like a luxury at best,” Hartfeil notes. “One topic that is ever relevant—increasingly relevant—is how to find wellness and create wellness for yourself, even in the context of a busy life.”
Hartfeil hopes Notes on Wellness will continue to be a source of connection and inspiration for CKUA listeners, filled with thoughtful interviews and practical insights into wellness.
“I hope that what we present continues to be relevant to the broad audiences who are part of the CKUA community,” Hartfeil says.
“I think it’ll be a shared learning journey for me and for the community.”
