Dr. Ingrid Pincott, ND Naturopathic Physician Do you have depression, anxiety, hormonal imbalances, irritability for no reason, insomnia or an inability to handle stress? Are you now developing chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, menopause, PMS and frequent infections? In both men and women if your adrenal glands are worn out then your body does not have the reserve to help you prevent these symptoms. At this point you may start to use sleeping medications for insomnia, caffeine to keep you alert and prescriptions for anxiety and depression. Exhausted adrenals or hypoadrenia is not a diagnosis in conventional medicine. Naturopathic medicine is very well suited to diagnose and recharge these very important “battery cells” called the adrenal glands. There is a treatment program for every budget that is geared for not only treatment but also prevention. Are you ready to get that spring back into your step?

economic expansion. Changes in the productive process, emphasis by government and private industry on construction and on research and development, expansion in health, welfare and educational services, and the need to advertise, sell and finance new products all created new jobs for women. By 1951 women comprised 22% of the total labour force and the FLFPR was 24%. As the economy developed and as labour’s productivity increased, consumer goods, cheaper in price, became available to more people. Mass consumption of these goods was imperative to the economic system. Between 1951 and 1994 the FLFPR of married women rose from 11% to 57.6%. Since the 1950s there has been a steady increase in part-time work and by 1994 the number of

part-time jobs, which have few benefits and little security, had expanded enormously; 69.4% of these were filled by women. Women continued to earn lower wages than men and in 1980 the average wage rate for fulltime women workers was 64% of that of the average wage rate for men workers. By 1993 women’s wages had increased somewhat and men’s wages
had declined, narrowing the gap between their earnings to 72%. In 1994, 70% of women were still employed in clerical, sales, service, teaching and nursing and health-related occupations; women comprised 43% of the total labour force and the FLFPR had risen to 52%.

Local Women MAKING A DIFFERENCE Women leading the way as Canada’s new entrepreneurs
Women entrepreneurs are one of the fastest growing segments of the Canadian economy...
and represent a growing economic force according to recent findings. A report on Canada’s business scene by the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce shows a 50 per cent increase in the number of self– employed women in Canada over the last 15 years. According to Statistics Canada there are now more than 826,000 women entrepreneurs in Canada who annually contribute in excess of $18 billion to Canada’s economy. The rate of growth of businesses run by women entrepreneurs is 60 per cent faster than those run by men, as 4 out of 5 new businesses are now started by women. ~ News Canada

How to balance your career and family The biggest challenge many of us face is how to balance the demands of family, friends, and career
W
hile we want happy and fulfilling lives outside of work, we have to make personal sacrifices in order to achieve our career aspirations. How do you balance those sacrifices so they don’t greatly interfere with your personal goals? How do you fit roles such as wife, mother, and friend into an already hectic schedule? Since time is precious, keeping a bal-
ance between the two worlds can be a challenge. Fortunately, with proper planning, balance is possible. Set Your Priorities Early The first step to achieving balance is to get your family to agree on what the priorities should be. Realize that business success often requires long hours and travel. In these instances, support from your
family has to be there. Additionally, when children are involved, many people discover that they have to re-balance their lives so they have time to spend with the kids. Consider What Is Right for You When placed in identical situations, no two people will make the same choices. Each person has to evaluate the

event and then make a decision based on what is right for her at the moment. Just because an outcome worked for one person, doesn’t necessarily mean it will work for another. Prioritize your own commitments. Decide what is most important to you. Where do you want to spend your time and energy? How important is your career in the scheme of your life? How do you define success? Every day we hear of increasing numbers of people who reach the pinnacle of their careers and decide it’s time to embark on a new stage of life. They quit their jobs, start a family, change careers, or take an extended leave. Others start businesses out of their homes so they can be with their families. Some companies are reluctant to support a person’s career advancement if they don’t know the person’s goals—both personal and professional. Therefore, once you know what you want, communicate it to your management and get support. If the company will not support your personal goals as well as your professional ones, then it’s time to evaluate whether this is the right com-
pany for you. Balance Points to Consider Before you make any drastic changes to your personal or professional life, consider the implications of each decision and how you plan to integrate the changes into your schedule. For example: • What effect will having children have on your life? • How much time do you want to take off when you have a child? • Do you want to come back to work full time? • What support systems exist to help you? • Will leaving at 5:00 allow you to get our work done? If not, are you willing to take work home? • How much control do you have over your workload? Different jobs have different requirements. Study your field to see if it meets your goals and aspirations. If not, it may be time to consider a change.
Allison Kilby
What’s Your Balancing Decision? We all make sacrifices to get what we want. Think about where you want to be in 10 or 20 years and what it will take to get there.

Celebrating women in non-traditional occupations
I
t’s important to remember how far women have come in achieving equality with men, especially in the workplace. While women have continued to shine in the traditionally female-dominated sectors, caring for, educating, and helping others, there hasalso been a recent rise in women taking on nontraditional occupations. Here at The Campbell River Mirror, our of office is made up mainly women (only 4 men employees). In an industry that has always been considered a ‘boy’s club’, we are proud to have eleven amazing women at the helm of this community’s newspaper.
There has always been an unfortunate under-
representation of women in hard news, business, and politics. But things are beginning to look up. Did you know that women premiers now lead the provinces of British Columbia, Alberta, Newfoundland and Labrador, as well as the territory of Nunavut? Christy Clark has been governing B.C. since March 2011, Alysson Redford is head of the
government in Alberta, Kathy Dunderdale was reelected premier of Newfoundland and Labrador in October 2011, and Eva Aariak has been Nunavut’s premier since November, 2008. It’s no wonder why political parties understand the attraction of female leaders. They are seen as being credible and innovative. Many people believe that they will be more attentive to social issues, such as the preservation of the public health system and improvements in education. Other less traditional occupations such as firefighting, trucking, and auto repair are
increasingly practiced by women. With such a high demand in B.C. for skilled tradespeople, now is the perfect time for women to consider a career in the trades. Tradeswomen of all ages are finding challenges, independence, good pay, and job satisfaction. Campbell River wouldn’t be what it is today without the mining,
fishing and construction industry and women are beginning to be more prominent, whether it’s on-site in a trades position, or off-site in an office position. At the end of the day, choosing a profession is a personal choice. Every industry has its value, and every person (male or female) has their own likes and dislikes.

Family Chiropractor
Decompression Laser Center Dr. Janis Guthy opened her Chiropractic Clinic on Dogwood Street over 7 years ago and continues to expand the services for her chiropractic patients while treating everything from severe headaches, sprained ankles to more complex neck and back pain. Most recently she has added Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression and Laser Therapy to her clinic. This computerized apparatus relieves pressure on the spinal nerves through the use of a mechanical traction device that is applied in conjunction with a highly sensitive computer. This device is highly effective for relieving pain due to degenerative, herniated or protruded discs. Having always embraced state-of-theart- therapy, Dr. Guthy has also added the latest technology for providing rejuvenating massage with the Thermal Shiatsu Massage Bed. In addition, Dr. Guthy has had much success in treating her patients who walk on unbalanced feet and as a result often create compensatory patterns in their ankles, knees, hips, and back. Along with foot treatment, Dr. Guthy provides comfortable Custom Pre-scripted Foot Orthotics. Results may vary.
Whether women are finding themselves in ‘traditional’ or ‘nontraditional’ jobs, the victory is that women are continuing to increase their presence in the workforce within many different industries. Hopefully one day the two categories will disappear and all industries will be equally populated with both women and men.
