Supporting Parents Of Children With Special Needs Featuring Jan Stewart31 Jan 202300:16:14

Jan Stewart is a highly regarded mental health governance expert and advocate. Growing up in New York and moving to Toronto after marrying a Canadian, she was untouched by significant adversity throughout her youth. She imagined a similarly happy life for her children. In her brutally honest memoir Hold on Tight: A Parent’s Journey Raising Children with Mental Illness, to be published in March, she candidly describes the shock she and her husband faced when each of their two young children started exhibiting troubling behaviors.

As a mental health governance expert, advocate, author of Hold on Tight: A Parent's Journey Raising Children with Mental Illness, and parent of two children with multiple, complex mental health disorders, my goal is to inspire and empower parents of similar children to persevere, have hope and not give up. I want them to live life on purpose, learn to take more control, and optimize success for themselves and their children. Jan is a Diamond Life Master in bridge and enjoys genealogy, fitness, and dance.

Leaning Into Your Authenticity With Jacklyn Purvis17 Jan 202300:21:35
Jacklyn Purvis co-founded the Be Do Have Movement; the High-Performance Coaching Company founded in 2019.

This company was founded when she and her business partner (and father) left industries in which we were no longer happy.  Jacklyn left the corporate world of marketing and advertising after realizing that she wasn't living the life she wanted and was settling for a career that left her with severe anxiety.

After personally studying coaching programs and certifications to move forward in her own life and business, she realized it was her responsibility to ensure other people had this information too. Stuck can be a place you are in, yet it doesn't have to be where you stay.

Breaking through anxiety and making massive changes in your life and business to follow purpose and passion is possible. Women can have the life and business they desire when they learn to live by the Be Do Have Method. That's what you learn with the Be Do Have Movement.

What is the one thing listeners need to know about working with you?

That I got into this industry initially because I was lost, anxious, and unsure of the next step in my life. I felt like I never fit in and did not know where to go to move forward; I was where they are too. Now I am on the quest to help other women know that change is possible for them too.

- Anxiety, Mindset, and Movement can change everything in your world
- You don't have to stay in something that isn't making you happy
- You have a choice every day to step into the woman you desire to be
- Growth is possible. It begins with the Be Do Have Method

Connecting IRL and outside of AI with Lea Williams29 Dec 202200:20:23
I'm a big believer in more life. I'm happy to be a spark that lets a person know, "it's gonna be alright." - Lea Williams. The story of Chronicler X begins with seeing (and experiencing) that we humans love to receive letters.  Period.  We do. We also want to feel valued.  Since I see you as precious - even sacred - it’s important that you get that message in a tangible way.  Letters do that.  I know of nothing else that does that so beautifully, do you? I’m Lea Williams, (“Lee”) compulsive creator of written and photographed images. You know:  we all have gifts.  After years as a travel writer, publicist, and editor, being on-air on the radio, and doing photo gallery shows, it’s very clear this is my gift.  Creating letters that take you on illuminating, comforting adventures. There are two messages floating around about letters now: 1.  they’re a “lost art”  (don’t get me started!) 2.  we miss getting them.  In fact, we get dewy-eyed, remembering when we got them. So starting Chronicler X was both  “not so fast, buster!” and let me give you that lovely pleasure again.  You can have it again! Now, of course, Chronicler X is not the one and only letter subscription.  So why this one? Well, this one responds to  -- your desire to learn, explore and drink in some lovely adventures in the wide world. And your longing for the comfort and uplift of letters. First, the giddy joy of seeing it in your mailbox.  Then the reading - the escape, the discoveries, and even the delicious feel of the heavy, textured paper. One subscriber said each letter is “a little trip that makes you want another.”  I deeply believe you deserve that.

Creating Internal Self-Care With Lea Misan27 Dec 202200:20:06

Set Yourself Free, Dreaming of the Future - Lea Misan

As an International, I felt lost in a new culture, again and again, as one who doesn’t fit in, isolated from friends and loved ones back in my home country. I wanted to feel accepted and at home.

  • I hid in a corner and waited for permission to invite me in for others to initiate.
  • I busied myself doing other people’s bidding.
  • I deferred to the needs and wants of others and pleased others at my own expense.
  • I froze at the slightest whiff of conflict.
  • I blanked out each time someone else chose to ‘define’ me.
  • I was accused of not doing enough and not having a backbone of my own.

To shape the life I wished to live, I knew I had to do something. It took me years to crack out from beneath the frozenness I felt and then to start identifying what was taking my power and draining my energy.

I was able to interrupt old patterns and change the dynamics of power that held me captive. And I started to gain my freedom and take charge of my own life.

My organization provides coaching, psychotherapy, and group work to Internationals, Expats, and Global Nomads in particular, but also many people.

Lea Misan is an accomplished consultant in systemic psychotherapy and process-oriented psychology who is passionate and dedicated to helping people involved in conflict, abuse, trauma, and leadership. She is also a Facilitator, Trainer, Coach, Founder, and Director of the mental health charity, Act for Change.

A Fireside Chat On Collaboration With Jenny Jackson20 Dec 202200:20:23
Meet Jenny:  Award-Winning International Author, Successful Entrepreneur, Keynote Speaker, Entrepreneur Mindset Coach, And Student Of Life.

From Jenny - I am a coach, entrepreneur, and author.  I have been a passionate self-improvement student for over 15 years now. I published my book The Whywareness Effect in May 2022. I love to serve and share knowledge. Master at failing in multiple businesses until I found my calling, and along the way, I discover that it is not the number of times you try but the journey, the questions you ask, and the mindset you build while doing so.

The Whywareness Effect

Have you ever asked yourself why we are so in love with the word Why? And the number of times we use this word unconsciously throughout our lifecycle.

Human beings are curious kitties, hungry to find a reason for each event that occurs in our lives, especially if those events are related to our development.

If you want to know more, grab a copy; you will not want to stop reading.

My Mission

After struggling for so long doing things I thought would make me happy, I noticed something was missing and couldn’t figure it out.

After attending my first live seminar, something clicked inside, and things were the same and decided to learn and share this, becoming passionate about helping and serving others to find their way through, just as it did for me a few years back. I am sharing this to inspire you because you are not alone, and if you want to improve in any area of your life, you will need some guidance.

Remember that we are just an email away!

Courage, Intention, Connection & Hope with Carisa Cole Sharrett15 Dec 202200:22:42

Free gift from Carisa Cole Sharrett:  A Simple Guide to Knowing Whether I Am Advocating or Complaining

About Carisa:

During the most painful, exhausting, and overwhelming years of my 16-year journey as a mom to a son with disabilities, I discovered all sorts of information and resources to get help for my child. 

However, there was not (and still is not) much out there to support me as a mom. I thought my path with my son would be more of a detour than a whole new journey in our lives. This thinking caused me to focus so much on him and what he needed that I didn’t prepare myself for the journey ahead. My exhaustion turned to burnout, my overwhelm turned to despair, and my fierce focus turned into loneliness as I realized I had depleted myself and become a shell of the passionate, determined woman I once was. Even more frightening was the journey I was on was nowhere close to being “over,” and it was definitely not a “detour.” 

I set out to reconnect with myself to bring healing, purpose, balance, hope, and joy back into my life. I had to learn what worked through trial and error. For many days I didn’t know if I could do it. But with determination and effort, I rediscovered myself and my passions. I learned how to be compassionate and kind to myself to give the same to the people I love. I have embraced a future of possibilities with my hope restored! 

Wouldn’t you like to claim that hope for yourself and discover a way out of the cycle of exhaustion, overwhelm, and loneliness that often comes with caring for a child with disabilities or other special needs? 

Let me help you do that without going through your own trial and error and without spending all the extra time and effort just to figure out what you might need to get there.

Instead, allow me to personally share with you my powerful blueprint for living a life with courage, intention, connection, and hope.

In addition to being a mom to a young man with Autism and Intellectual Disability, Carisa Cole Sharrett:

  • holds a Master of Education in Special Education degree from the University of Phoenix,
  • is a Certified Special Needs Life Quality Coach,
  • serves as an Accountability Group Facilitator for the University of Phoenix chapter of the National Society of Leadership and Success.
  • is a member of the Leadership Learning Guild for the National Society of Leadership and Success.
  • Carisa also holds a current K-12 Special Education teaching certification and served as a lead teacher, trainer, and district case manager for eight years in both the public and charter school systems.

I also work privately in a virtual setting with families (Moms, Dads, Parents, Siblings, Grandparents, Extended Family) of children with disabilities or other special needs. I have options for:

  • a single 1-hour session,
  • a package of three 1-hour sessions, or
  • a package of five 1-hour sessions.

Together, we will decide what is right for you. As a private client, each session is personalized for you. During your complimentary 30-minute 1:1 Transformation Session, we’ll have a candid conversation where we uncover what is going on in your life that is not working, has you stuck, or is keeping you from living life and getting the desired results.

A Fireside Chat On The Hustle and Grind Culture With Michelle Thompson13 Dec 202200:23:30

Founder and Owner Michelle Thompson is a Legal Coach and operates Resistant Vision Coaching and Consulting, LLC.  

How Do I Work with Clients?

At Resistant Vision, we have three steps to working with clients:

  • Calming your nervous system using the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/tapping), self-care, and pleasure inventories;
  • Clarifying your goals and paving a path ahead; and
  • Committing to your goals to bring about the life you want.

As a coach, I work with lawyers to:

  1. Get out of the fight, flight, or freeze - no more feeling held hostage to your bosses and clients;
  2. Prioritize your well-being;
  3. Reconnect with the amazing ways you wanted to make a mark on the world; and
  4. Set a path forward to leaving your mark.

As a result, clients have built the professional and personal habits they need to have a sustainable legal career and create the world they want without burnout and exhaustion.

The Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), also known as tapping, is a simple tool that can clean up the feelings associated with trauma and physical hurts by tapping on acupuncture points while repeating phrases. This is fundamental to lawyers transforming their work lives, so they're not held hostage to work, their family, or the community. This is fundamental to creating pleasure in your life and spreading that pleasure.

The four biggest challenges my clients face that undermine overall well-being and productivity are:

  1. Reducing Stress by Taking Charge of Your Time: How to Prioritize Yourself for Professional Success and Avoid Burnout;

  3. Writing with Support: Using the Tools of Social Writing to Keep Large Writing Projects Moving Forward.
  4. How to Use Billable Hours as a Planning Device to Direct Your Time, Your Focus, Your Priorities, and Your Energy.

I give speeches and workshops about these four topics and more and would love to share what I know with your colleagues, department, division, or law firm.

Hindsight is 2020 Featuring Author Fani Mari08 Dec 202200:21:53

Hindsight 2020: Tribulations and silver linings during a global pandemic

Hindsight 2020: Tribulations and silver linings during a global pandemic is a collection of non-fiction short stories that feature unfiltered first-person accounts of the incredible, heartbreaking, and, more often than not, catastrophic effects 2020 had on people's lives. Hindsight 2020 offers an overview of the big events of 2020 through the moving personal stories of 10 people from around the globe.2020 was a life-changing, historic year, largely because of the pandemic, but coronavirus is not the main focus of the book. 

More on Fani:

I live and breathe beauty, value personal connections, and above all - authenticity is at the core of my brand. Growing up, I had acne (I've had it for over a decade) and remembered seeing all the perfectly polished images on Instagram and in magazines. It was devastating and made me hate myself and my skin. In the last few years, I vowed to be as honest as possible, showing my skin with all its so-called "imperfections," and if I manage to help even one person, that will be enough! In my writing, it's essential to provide value to the reader, so all my pieces are always well-research and include expert opinions. I love reading scientific journals and learning about new ingredients, beauty treatments, and more. I'm very creative, organized, and a bit chaotic!

BREAKEVEN is a London-based blog written and edited by Fani Mari, a beauty, lifestyle, and fashion journalist.

With a master's degree in Fashion Journalism from Central Saint Martins and various contributions to publications such as Coveteur, HuffPost US, Cosmopolitan UK + US, The Independent, Glamour UK, Byrdie, MINE Magazine, Citizen Femme, Global Blue, 1Granary, Design Scene, D’Scene Magazine, Drapers and others. This blog is a personal diary, a compilation of product reviews, traveling, outfit shots, inspiration, general thoughts, and everything in between. This blog is mainly about beauty and skincare as well as fashion.

Fani has seen the catastrophic effects of fast fashion over the years of working in the industry and has always favored up-and-coming designers and high-quality materials that last the test of time; hence she’s involved in a peer-to-peer rental platform By Rotation, to add to the circular economy movement and focusing on sharing rather than owning.

Self Forgiveness & Setting Boundaries With Jeanine Grayson06 Dec 202200:19:08

Hi! I’m Jeanine.

I help high-achieving women set guilt-free boundaries, conquer self-doubt, and fill their confidence cups.

I’m a gal who got tired of being a people pleaser and putting my needs behind everyone else's. I decided to believe in myself and start pursuing the life I desired, and I love helping others do the same.


Although I am grateful for my journey and where it has brought me, life has tossed me some tough chapters.


I knew that to change my life; I would first need to change my thoughts. Once my new thoughts became beliefs, I had the courage and the confidence to take massive action. Today my life brings me immense joy and gratitude, and I know YOU can have the same.

For years I struggled secretly in a toxic relationship, quietly battling chronic stress, infertility, pregnancy loss, and cancer. I was always a private person, and most of the people around me during those years had no real idea what I was going through. I wasn’t a complainer, and I put others’ needs before my own constantly as I silently watched my happiness, hopes, and dreams slip away.

Until one sunny summer day, I was sitting in my backyard with my dogs, feeling defeated, tired, and angry. I remember every single detail of that day, and I think I always will. It was a pivotal day. It was the day that my mindset just shifted. I thought to myself, “Enough! I don’t want to do this anymore. If I continue to live this way, I will continue to feel this way, and I will never be happy.”

That was the day I began to change my thoughts and speak to myself differently. Eventually, those thoughts turned into a new set of beliefs. I believed I deserved a different way of life and that my happiness and goals must be prioritized.

I began to take action and make big changes. I identified every aspect of my life that I wanted fulfillment and growth, and then I went after it. I left a toxic relationship. I left a comfortable job that wasn’t challenging me any longer. I met the man of my dreams. I moved to a new city. I became an entrepreneur. Sure, there were a few bumps in the road along the way…there always are, right? 

But I stayed laser-focused on what I wanted and what I confidently knew I deserved.

Mindset and Confidence Coaching

Confidence work truly begins in our mind. The conversations we have with ourselves and how we speak to ourselves set the tone for what we carry out in life and what we settle for. When we live with a scarcity mindset, we tend to think and do small and question our choices every step of the way.

When we live with a mindset of abundance, we empower ourselves to think big and to challenge our doubts and fears.
Confidence inspires impact-oriented action to begin setting boundaries, increasing self-love, and focusing on those goals and dreams of ours that somehow got lost along the way.

Just think of some of the possibilities in your life for change, growth, and fulfillment:
  • Stop avoiding feelings and master the art of speaking your truth.
  • Identify your limiting beliefs and empower new thoughts.
  • Create guilt-free boundaries and begin to say no unapologetically.
  • Stop settling for mediocre relationships.
  • End the comparison game, insecurity, and low self-esteem and step into confidence.
  • Embrace ownership of your life, self-love, and empowerment.

Getting Free From All Types Of Toxic Relationships With Linda Sage01 Dec 202200:23:30

Linda Sage is a criminal psychologist, speaker, writer, and broadcaster living in Leeds, England. Linda has spent over 40 years with the most heinous criminals in the UK’s recent history; serial killers, sex offenders, murderers, and psychopaths were her daily companions. She has lived and worked in many places throughout Europe, the Middle East, the USA, Canada, and Spain.

Psychopaths are not all axe murderers; they are found in all walks of life.  Psychopathic traits are found in many people. Corporate leadership is often a great home for them.  Loving a narcissistic personality will leave you scars, but there are tells and red flags to see if you want to.

Impacting A Generation With Destiny, Aasha & Imahkus Manns08 Nov 202200:30:10
Equipping your child with the life skills necessary for living a successful and, most importantly, fulfilled life” - Founders of Kidz2kidz Coaching

The Manns Girls... Destiny, Aasha, and Imahkus Manns are three sisters born and raised in Ghana, West Africa. 

Their Dad is African American and lived in Ghana for 20 years, building and developing his Chiropractic Center with his wife, Mavis Manns, whom he met a few months after arriving in Ghana. The three have been homeschooled most of their lives using the accredited Abeka Academy program based in Pensacola, Florida. 

During their free time as youth, they were involved in many extracurriculars from Swimming, language, and music classes to Shotokan Karate, where they each rose to the ranks of Black belt, with Aasha becoming the youngest Black belt in Africa at age 8. 

In 2014 their family packed up, sold many of their belongings, consolidated their Chiropractic and Wellness center to run without the CEO's constant presence, and began what would be later called the Manns 7 World Tour. For the next five years, they lived for 2-4 months in over 20 countries, 32 cities, and 48 U.S states. 

At the end of their travels, the two oldest girls graduated high school and chose to attend the Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) in Richmond, VA, where, in their senior year, they study Sociology, Psychology, and Business Marketing/sales. Aasha is looking to pursue a career in law, Destiny a career in Financial Services, and the youngest sister, 

Imahkus, recently began her first year at the University of Virginia (UVA) where she is looking to pursue the Pre-med track. 

The rest of the Manns family, including the rest of the Manns siblings, lived in Richmond for the older girl's first years at University but are now moving back to Ghana. 

During their travels, the Manns girls developed the idea for their business, Kidz2Kidz Coaching LLC, and finally launched in September 2021. 

For the past year or so, they have been working hard to perfect and grow their program and connect with schools and organizations in Richmond to provide their services as Kids' Soft skill Coaches.  

Email Address kidz2kidzcoaching@gmail.com OUR VISION

OUR VISION is to impact the kids of this generation and future generations by teaching them the crucial life skills not taught in schools. This will allow them to better face life's challenges and make more emotionally mature and informed decisions, ultimately leading to fuller and happier lives.

OUR MISSION

OUR MISSION is to build a worldwide community of kids' whose lives were impacted by the life skill knowledge gained through Kidz2kidz Coaching’s various programs

Kim Lengling Author

Author, Host of Let Fear Bounce podcast.   Host of the Write Stuff, the author's voice TV Show, coffee drinker, and dog Mom.  "Let's spread hope like confetti."

Kim Lengling

A bit different, she listens to shadows and talks with animals. She also happens to write a monthly column for a local newspaper sharing veteran stories; she is a guest columnist on USMILITARY.com and is the co-host of a twice-weekly local radio show focused on veterans. She currently has two veteran-related books published.

When she’s not writing or dog-sitting for her friends and family members, you can find her taking walks through the woods and fields that surround her home, crocheting, reading, listening to music, singing, or assisting veterans within her community. With her wonky sense of humor and the proclivity to talk with critters, you have a small glimpse of her, but just a small one.

Join me as I host special guests for a casual chat to talk about motivation, inspiration, and the occasional dog story. We'll share stories of kindness, compassion, and the decision to let fear bounce. Providing hope and light to those who may need it. We may or may not discuss coffee as well.

Overcoming Through Mindset Shifting With Eric Clayton18 Oct 202200:28:26

Emotional Thought creates reality.

Eric Clayton helps people understand how they create their world by joining what he calls Emotion Labels and thought, which we combine to call Emotional Thought. He states that we should separate emotion, thought, and feeling. (Not Feelings) We only have one feeling, and it is the same for all emotions, for it is the creative power that impregnates the subconscious mind with the baby of the Emotional Label and the thought. Awareness of this power will eventually create a neural pathway in your brain, which will alert you of all subconscious pregnancies.

Your glass is never half empty or half full. Your glass is always full if you have the right glass!

I am at my best when I am encouraging and helping others to be their best. My desire to be my best spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and physically fuels this passion. To do this, I practice self-care. Several years ago, my physician told me that if I did not change how I cared for my body, I would become pre-diabetic. They offered me the choice to use medication or diet to help make the changes. I chose diet. And from that day to this, I have been on a journey to heal myself holistically and help others do the same.

Why Your Mindset Shift Is Necessary With Rochelle Parker22 Sep 202200:22:29

ROMANS 12:2

Shift your life.

I HELP PEOPLE TRANSFORM THEIR MINDS TO WIN!

Meet Rochelle Parker

Motivational Speaker | Coach | Minister

At a young age, Rochelle knew helping people and sharing the gospel in a transparent way would lead her to greater heights. Rochelle E. Parker, an ordained minister since 2016, listened to the strong calling for ministry in her life, and God began to show her the power of manifestation, which resulted in an evolution in all aspects of her life. Although, as a little girl, Rochelle worked in ministry, as she began to step into her purpose, she learned to achieve her duties in Christ by being persistent, diligent, and faithful.

God speaks to your future and not your present circumstance. -Rochelle Parker

Educating herself in her areas of interest lead to her receiving her Associate's degree in Communication. Speaking to individuals in public became second nature to her. She began ministering at events, in self-development courses, and during church service. Her passion for speaking and ministering led her to a bigger platform.

Rochelle founded and operated her first organization, What’s Your Truth, where she developed a series of presentations that focused on young women acknowledging their inner and outer beauty and seeking visual mentors who represent truth and value. On a mission, she started a business, Your R.E.P. LLC, Reach. Empower. Produce a Coaching agency designed to continue her work with women.

Her experience with helping others began at Young Minds Christian Preparatory School as a teacher, where she had the opportunity to constantly engage young people. Rochelle has also dedicated much free time volunteering with local initiatives and organizations such as Northwest Westside CDC's city clean-up, walk with a Doc in Washington Park, and Educate 2 Educate as a Program Coordinator for global leadership. Rochelle Parker is a native of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, with a diverse cultural background. Her mission is to inspire women and girls from all walks of life to live in their purpose, using faith and reflection as a guide to manifesting the life they want

A Fireside Chat On The Introvert's Life With Birgit Livesey20 Sep 202200:21:01

Living on the B Side has evolved a lot since I initially had the original website created. From a personal blogging website, it has now turned into a Podcast focused passion project whilst still having the guest blogging element to it.

I also learned more about the power of music and how amazing it can be to integrate it into my daily life. Chatting to others about their take on how music impacts their lives has contributed heavily to the changes now being made to my website.

Please bear with me whilst I work through this process; I want to get it right to do my vision for it justice.

In the meantime, I would love to stay in touch with you so we can continue to share our common passion for music and life.

Below are a few ways we can make that happen, and you can connect with the B-Sider Community and me.

Keep rocking & keep dancing, B xo

LISTEN TO MY PODCAST

In every episode, I cover a song or song-related topic that has impacted me in some shape or form. I also talk to individuals about their own experiences with music and how they see it impacting their lives.

Then I also share some ideas, tips, and information about how you can start to consciously use music more in your life.

You can listen to the Podcast on iTunes, Spotify, and other regular channels. Click on the link below to find out more.

FACEBOOK GROUP

Join me and other B-Siders in our private Facebook Group to mingle, and share our favorite songs and how music changed our lives.

There is also planning going on for free challenges to dive a little deeper into the benefits of music and possible live guest interviews within the group (on top of the Podcast).

My intention is to keep it fun and light with lots of reminiscing going on, yet also informative and create a supportive and encouraging music lovers community.

JOIN MY MAILING LIST

I am sharing any news, updates, and other announcements with my B-Sider Community via email.

This will include upcoming Podcast guests and other things I am in the middle of planning out. My email community will be the first one to find out, so sign up today to not miss anything.

Self Love And Self Care While Healing Trauma With Ruth Bermudez13 Sep 202200:23:00
READY  TO MAKE  YOURSELF A PRIORITY?

Join Tribe

A Seasonal Subscription box full of Worldwide Black-Owned Self-Love Products and Activities to Help Women Embrace Their Healing Journey!

Meet the Founder

BIO

Hi, I'm Ruth Bermudez, The founder of Afrowarriors subscription box. For many years, I've dealt with on-and-off depression, low self-esteem, and little to no confidence. In early 2019, I surrendered to God. I just wanted to be alone, wanted to heal from past trauma, was tired of being in the same cycle, wanted to find my self-worth, to find my glow, and work on being the most unapologetic natural version of myself. The thing is I didn't quite know how or what to do to heal.

Since I've surrendered, I wrote a note apologizing to myself for mistreating her (me)  and, most importantly, neglecting my soul for all these years. I cut my damaged hair, symbolizing me removing the damaged pieces I was holding on to in life. Then I planted a seed symbolizing my spiritual growth and Personal Development.

I  started doing things on my own and asking myself questions, like " why am I so afraid to be with myself ?", " What are some of your triggers from the past ?" "Have you forgiven that person who hurt you?". From there, I began my self-worth/spiritual Journey.

I want to be able to share my story and experience and reach out to millions of women, who are healing from domestic violence, Absent/hateful parents, betrayal from friends/family, academic denial and want to find their self-worth, finding self-love, work on personal and/or spiritual growth. I started this company because healing doesn't have to be boring or unbearable. Make it fun getting to know yourself, and Remember, No matter where you are in your journey, know that healing is beautiful.

Who Are We?

Afrowarriors offers a unique Retreat wellness experience for women by incorporating high-quality black-owned products and self-love activities in each box every month to empower and help women embrace their healing journey.

For only $89.99, we offer 2 subscription boxes for every season (summer, winter, spring & fall).  You will receive 5-8 high-quality black-owned products in each box with activities to self-reflect and have a connection with your true inner self, a priceless experience to have. You can also get a single box for $49.99 until you're ready to join the tribe. But don't wait too long, spots are filling up, and this offer ends soon.

Authentic Relationships In Business With Amy Siegfried06 Sep 202200:22:28

TAKE YOUR SEAT AT THE TABLE.

Life is full of challenges. Some, like choosing between rosé and champagne, are easy. (Answer - both). As women, we are constantly hurdling unrealistic expectations, but what if we could make that easier?

AMY

While Amy’s athletic career was short-lived, she fell in love with the world of sports. That learned love for sports came in handy when she embarked on her career in professional sports. She’s lived internationally, which provides her with a global sports perspective. With a career in marketing, partnerships and public relations, the TedX speaker has mastered small talk, which comes into play when breaking down sports so you can conquer your next networking event.

Her career has included working for a Major League Baseball team and in other male-dominated industries. A third-generation entrepreneur, Amy once flew around the world in 58 hours and 37 minutes, has lived internationally, and is a master of small talk, bringing people together and the handwritten note. You can often find this married lady working with the entrepreneurship community nationwide and teaching her toddler about sports, food and other things he’ll have to use to make small talk one day.

ABOUT LAST NIGHT’S GAME

Why are they running off the field? What’s an out? Unimaginable sports questions like that inspired brother-sister duo Amy and Scott to start Last Night’s Game. When searching for a source that breaks down sports in an easy-to-understand way, they couldn't find anything. So they created it.

Our fans are addicted to the short, sweet, and entertaining content delivered via a triweekly email publication and weekly podcast. They use what they learn to join the conversation at the office, at cocktail parties, or on a date.

There are no egos here. We want to hear from you! Email us your sports queries and bewilderments.

Finding The Goodness Around You With Dr. Lynda30 Aug 202200:27:28

Learn about Dr. Lynda Ulrich, Founder of The Goodness Exchange.

Welcome! I’m Dr. Lynda M. Ulrich, DMD: writer, artist, global traveler, citizen scientist, and founder of the Goodness Exchange (formerly Ever Widening Circles)

In this bio, I’m going to tell you a lot about myself because I want you to feel like you are having coffee with a friend when you visit the Goodness Exchange.

Additionally, I am skeptical of websites where you look at the “about” page, and there is only an impersonal, canned blurb there, or maybe nothing at all. Who are these people? Why should I trust them with my time?

I know my bio here is unconventionally long, but adhering to “convention” has never been one of my strong suits, so please feel free to step off the “Dr. Lynda Story” at any time. Really, this is far too long, but it is the whole story of an ordinary person who has found her way in and out of a lot of extraordinary circumstances.

Here is one of my favorite quotes:

Louis Pasteur"Chance favors the prepared mind."

A fortunate confluence of aptitudes and events has uniquely prepared me to create the Goodness Exchange (formerly EWC). Here are a few of the high and low points in that journey:

A message from the goodness family

There are millions of people quietly working around the world to make life better for others. Unfortunately, their stories are often drowned out by the negative noise of the 24/7 news cycle. As a positive media company, the Goodness Exchange (formerly Ever Widening Circles) celebrates meaningful insights and innovations through uplifting content that prove it’s still an amazing world.

About Us

We are on a mission to celebrate the wave of goodness and progress that is well underway all around the world.

You were right to believe that there is a world of goodness out there that we're not seeing. Together, we can change the negative dialogue about our times!

Why us?

The team at the Goodness Exchange is on a mission to help people find and celebrate the wave of goodness and progress, a movement we call The Conspiracy of Goodness™. We are a team of ordinary people who have come together to grow a global community and share stories of ingenuity, wonder, and good news that almost anyone would agree signals great progress in the world. So, say hello!

Aligning Your Beliefs With Your Goals25 Aug 202200:10:57

In this episode, I am talking about aligning your beliefs with your goals.  

The first step in creating goals that are aligned with your internal beliefs is identifying what those beliefs are. Many of us have hidden beliefs that we're unaware of, which can sabotage our efforts to achieve our goals. 

For example, if you believe you're not good enough or don't deserve success, these beliefs will prevent you from achieving your goals.

Check Your Inside; It's Not Always The External - What's Hindering You?18 Aug 202200:13:23

Lots of times, people say outside forces are hindering them from being successful.  I call FOUL!  Why?  Because while yes, some external factors exist that attempt to hold us back...we are usually our own hindrance.  And it begins with our thinking.  

This is an in-your-face, no holds barred episode.  I'm talking about the negative thinking that you're creating as your own reality that's holding you back.  

If you want to achieve success, then you must first believe that it’s possible. If you doubt your ability to succeed, you will never take the actions necessary to make it happen.

Changing your thinking patterns may take some practice, but it’s well worth the effort. Your success depends on it.

Creating POWER Goals To Achieve Your Greatness

You know you want more out of life, but you're unsure how to get there.

Setting and achieving goals is one of the most important things you can do for your personal growth, but it's not always easy.

This worksheet will help you create a roadmap to achieve the greatness you deserve. With S.M.A.R.T. goals set both long term and short term, you'll be able to stay on track while reaching for greatness.

Now...I want to thank you for listening in today.  My goal here at GO BE GREAT WITH COACH KARENA is to bring you tips, tools, and strategies to live not just your best life but your most authentic life.  I do that by bringing you the hard questions, the topics that create deep thought, and I also bring guests who want to share their jewels and gems of wisdom and their products and services with you to help facilitate that authentic life.

Our goal is to help you transform your life from your best life to your most authentic life and achieve your goals.  Why do we want to do this?

Because it then helps you to create a space and journey to find your purpose in life, and we are here to help you feel supported on that journey.

Be sure to come to every episode with your journal or notebook, your coffee, tea, or beverage of choice, and let's get into it.  If you must...put this last episode on repeat until you've truly digested it and begin transforming your life.  I'll see you on the flip side.

Investing Into Your Future With Lane Kawaoka16 Aug 202200:23:36

More about and from Lane:

Aloha, my name is Lane!

“The true meaning of wealth is having the freedom to do what you want, when you want, and with whom you want. Building cash flow via real estate is the simple part. The difficult part occurs after you are free financially to find your calling and fulfillment. But that’s a great problem to have ;)” excerpt from “The One Thing That Changed Everything”

After 12 years as a Licensed Professional (PE) Civil/Industrial Engineer, I fired the boss and began to focus 100% of my time on my investing and helping others in my Passive Investor Accelerator & Mastermind. 

I began investing in 2009 in rainy Seattle; being a ramen-eating cheapo, I was able to buy a property early, right after college. After discovering the difference between ‘Cashflow Investing’ and ‘appreciation investing (gambling/speculating)’… I moved my portfolio into 11 single-family rentals in Birmingham, Atlanta, Indianapolis, and Pennsylvania. Today, I am investing in syndications that invest in Class C & B Multi-Family Apartment, RV Parks, mobile homes, and assisted living facilities because of this Nation’s demand for affordable housing – not rich people's Class-A assets. My mission is to help regular people into good deals that were once only accessible to the rich. The passive income from investing in stabilized rental properties made it possible for me to move back home to Hawaii, where the cost of paradise is 10%+ cost of living and -30% less pay for comparable jobs on the US mainland. There I was able to live a lifestyle where I was able to bike to work. It did not take me long, however, to finally quit the day job and ditch the e-bike for a Mercedes.

I want to share how I paid 4% in taxes for 2018

Annoyed by the bogus real estate education programs out there (that take money from people who don’t have it in the first place), I set out to make this free website to help other hard-working professionals, the shrinking middle-class dispel the Wall-Street dogma of traditional wealth-building and offer an alternative to “garbage” investments in the 401K/mutual funds that only make the insiders rich. We help the hard-working middle-class build real asset portfolios by providing free investing education, podcasts, and networking plus access to investment opportunities not offered to the general public.

Yes, the website is a little all over the place but join me on my journey to help build the Simple Passive Cashflow system.

The Long Game Of SEO In Digital Marketing With Brandon Leibowitz09 Aug 202200:16:16

Brandon Leibowitz of SEO Optimizers brought key elements to the show today surrounding SEO, the dark web, how long it should take, and other valuable insights.   The main vital takeaway here is that when it comes to SEO timeframes - It really depends on the business, it depends on the competitors, and it depends on what you're trying to rank for. If you have a highly competitive keyword, you may be looking at 6 months before you start seeing any real results. But if you have a less competitive keyword, you might start seeing results within a couple of months.   Take a listen and be sure to grab your notebook, journal, coffee, tea, or beverage of choice and take great notes.

A working definition: Inflammatory Breast Cancer (IBC) is a rare and very aggressive disease in which cancer cells block lymph vessels in the skin of the breast.

This type of breast cancer is called “inflammatory” because the breast often looks swollen and red, or “inflamed”.info@marthavandam.com (to contact me)
