I have created an e-book that provides tips on how to maintain a healthy mind, body, and spirit. This guide to wellness is not something I take lightly, as it is so important to stay healthy and well in all aspects of life, especially for entrepreneurs who face the challenges of hard work. The e-book offers natural choices that can help individuals live healthier lives and feel better.  I encourage you to access the guide here.  The episode highlights the benefits of personal development for entrepreneurs, particularly in building resilience and improving decision-making skills. The statistics presented in the episode show that entrepreneurship is challenging, and many businesses fail within the first few years.

The episode emphasizes the importance of continuing to do the work and showing up for oneself to build resilience and improve decision-making skills continually.

I share them today as our daughter has had a set back and needed more help.  This disorder and addiction journey is long and hard. I have learned so much about the roller coaster of emotions.

I come to you today solo.  It's been a while since I turned the mic on myself.  I found myself reflecting on the choices that we make and being present to those choices during my last Ballroom dance competition. I feel privileged and blessed to be able to participate in dance as I do. And yet if you have listened to me before or followed me on social , this dance is truly a metaphor for life.  I learn so much about myself and how I show up in the world when I challenge myself with dance.  I speak today about comparison and how that is the thief for all joy.  Signs from the universe as I hear a song that reminds me of my mother.  And so much more.  Where do you find yourself today?  What choices are you making?  Are you truly appreciating them ?  Would love to hear from you.  Find me on IG or FB .  ------------------------------------ If you are ready to journal your way to more joy, check out my journal today.

Matthew Brownstein joins me today for a fascinating conversation about spirituality and meditation. He had a spiritual awakening which lead him to seeking the truths of all mediation, hypnotherapy and more.  He is a wealth of information. His story and journey of life has been great.   Matthew J. Brownstein’s journey into spirituality, health, and healing began in 1992 with a profound spiritual awakening that made him begin seeking the truths of all the world’s great wisdom traditions.  This sudden shift into a spiritual view of life led Matthew to change his major in college to Philosophy, yet in time it became clear to him that Philosophy was too intellectual and did not offer the direct experiences that he sought for.  Changing his major to Religion, Matthew soon discovered Mysticism and the more esoteric branches which led to his increased spiritual experiences.  Not knowing what to do with this knowledge, he then went to his first Acupuncture College to learn more about how energy blockages keep us from health, wholeness, and spiritual realization. You will find him and all that offers the world through his site here.  You can learn more about meditation and find some samples of meditations on his OnLIne Monastery here.  -------------------------------------- If you are ready to journal your way to more joy, check out my journal today.

These last 2 years have been challenging to say the least.  I have met so many that have found a way to thrive or reinvent themselves.  And I've spoken with many who find themselves stuck and unsure how to get going again.  Many have gained weight, gotten out of shape, felt the need to change jobs or careers, even left and changed relationship.  As a wellness advocate and retired RN, I know the importance of creating healthy habits. They keep us grounded and help us move towards the goals that we have.  Even creating habits can help us start by creating the goals for what we want in life.    I have been partnered with Shaklee for over 22 years, the most clinically proven wellness company in the world, according the Forbes. I believe it with ALL the clinical proof there is about the products.  I share today about a simple way to get started to reset your habits.  What is it that you want?  If you are feeling stuck I encourage you to take a listen. I think you will hear some things to help you get moving again in life and health.    Need a little extra help ?  I offer FREE consultations. Let's connect .

When you hear Dr. Robb you cant help but be lifted up ! Today on the show he shares his story that lead him to losing everything from his business, his wife, his children and being homeless on the streets of Manchester England for over a year . On a cold and wet English night, he fell to my knees and begged God to help him find a way from the endless nightmare that was his existence and moments later a man carrying a bible rounded the corner and offered me a helping hand.  His story is remarkable.  His level of commitment and compassion to help others who are struggling with addictions is tremendous. He does not mince words.  He had me laughing.  He had me crying.  He challenges us all.  And left me knowing that if we can help others have a better tomorrow than today , then we should do it.  You can find Dr. Robb Kelly on his site here.

Summer time is busy and fun .  And I'm sharing some of my favorite interviews and episodes that i have done in the last 2 years.  Since I just started a little running out side again, I thought I'd share a Wellness Wednesday episode with Chris. He is an avid runner and quite an athlete. We had a fun conversation about running and travel and life in general.  --------------------------- My time with my business and my partnership with Shaklee I have met some awesome people. Chris Bartholomew is no exception. He is currently The Eastern Regional Sales director yet has been involved in our incentive trips quite a bit. And I've noticed that he is an avid runner. Not just a few miles but many miles that he puts in during the weeks. I am privileged  that he sat down with me for a conversation about running and his travels and what running gives to him. And then a neat discover he made about hydration after one hot day.  The thoughts he shares at the end are so good for running and exercise and really life.  1. Make a decision : Just start, once you do the inertia keeps you going.  2. Have Fun!! Love that. We need to do things to bring us joy and fun.  You will also learn in this episode why we both choose Shaklee as our brand of wellness products and why a host of Olympic athletes do as well.  Chris is the most knowledgable about the Shaklee Pure Performance Line and you will learn a lot from him today.  So grateful for this time with Chris. I really enjoyed it and had fun learning more about Chris.  ----------------- Like this podcast ? Give it a 5 start review, subscribe and share .

Amy Guerrero, trauma-informed recovery coach, conscious sober person, and founder of Thrive In Recovery, has a coaching practice developed for sober people to heal their trauma, find success, and create healthy relationships with people, money, and themselves. Amy has learned how to go from admitting she was powerless to living powerfully, and believes it is her ultimate act of service to share her journey with others. I’m reaching out about having her on your show.    Amy knows from experience that getting sober is only the first step in a journey towards healing. She was pretending to be happy, thinking that the next meeting or the next therapy session would “fix” her and allow her to finally feel comfortable in her own skin, but it just wasn’t happening. Amy got busy educating herself, training and working with people in somatic experiencing, attachment theory, and other trauma-informed modalities, and relating it to living a conscious sober lifestyle. She turned her healing into her life’s work and now uses that education to coach people to feel more courage, hope and confidence in their sober life.  Blessed to be lead to Amy who is helping me today and our family. as our daughter has returned home from a treatment center.  I learned a lot. I think you will too.  ------------------------------ Support this podcast by buying a cup of coffee .

I love the song Days like this by Van Morrison. I never did pay attention to the words until it was mentioned as a possible mother-son dance at a wedding.  Then I listened. The words are below and I reference them in this episode.  And reflect on all that I have been doing the last 2 months, since my 58th  bday.  There has been lots of struggle and joy-less days.  And yet I found myself....in these 4 mentioned occasions , finding a feeling a JOY inside of me. And I knew there were days like these...and yet wondered if they would happen.  I hope you listen and enjoy...and hear that when we want the joy...its up to us!!!  And it's possible.  Days like this: Van Morrison.  When it's not always raining there'll be days like this When there's no one complaining there'll be days like this When everything falls into place like the flick of a switch Well my mama told me there'll be days like this When you don't need to worry there'll be days like this When no one's in a hurry there'll be days like this When you don't get betrayed by that old Judas kiss Oh my mama told me there'll be days like this When you don't need an answer there'll be days like this When you don't meet a chancer there'll be days like this When all the parts of the puzzle start to look like they fit it Then I must remember there'll be days like this There'll be days like this When everyone is up front and they're not playing tricks When you don't have no freeloaders out to get their kicks When it's nobody's business the way that you want to live I just have to remember there'll be days like this When no one steps on my dreams there'll be days like this When people understand what I mean there'll be days like this When you ring out the changes of how everything is Well my mama told me there'll be days like this   ----------------------------- The Journey to Joy Journal is available now.  My journal is available .

As many of you know if you listen to this podcast and follow me on social media,  I took up ballroom dance lessons last July during the pandemic.

What ballroom dance has taught me.  Red Light Stories: What I learned at my first Ballroom dance competition  I decided to compete in another competition in September and I decided to go into it with a whole new mindset. And what a difference it made.  I had these thoughts while in Michigan with our son, helping him move in. So I recorded this.

The first 200+ pound weight loss contestant from Extreme Makeover Weight loss edition Jacqui McCoy joins me today. I heard her story while at a Shaklee convention and we immediately struck by her honesty and truth she spoke about how this experience which should have been such a high point, lead to years of more struggle with body image and weight and so much more.  We have become close over the years and I am honored that Jacqui is able to share with you today her story. She has gotten through the tough spots of counting calories and workouts and working so hard for something that she thought she wanted to achieve. The television show left her  with her own eating disorder and much to learn about health. There were SO many extremes that they were expected to accomplish. She didn't even know how to be healthy after all that.  I know you will love this episode not just about the show but really about the NOW!!  You can find Jacqui on Facebook and IG here.    --------------------- Like this podcast ?

When someone is caught up in an eating disorder or addiction, they do lose out on these parts of life. And as a mom I have found myself grieving for a life I wish I had with my daughter.,  a life I wish she had with her family. It's sad and a reality. I find myself reflecting on this particularly now as my daughter , if she had followed a 'normal 'path to college after high school should have graduated now  I talk about the 12 steps, specially #11 , seeking after prayer and meditation and knowing that this path of my daughters is not her will or my will, it's really Gods plan and will.  Acceptance is key. Realization that grieving is ok . And what we can do during this time.  Have you felt grief like this? Mourning for a life you wish you had with your loved one? Would love to hear about it.  Like this podcast ? Want to support it?  Buy me a cup of coffee here. https://www.buymeacoffee.com/juggling   Give it a 5 start review, subscribe and share .

Richard Wasson joins me today from Ireland to have a great discussion of life. We met through Clubhouse and had a great connection over sharing stories of adventure, travel and life. He celebrates 2 years sober now and believes his life is so wonderful now.  Having a base is so important, be it with relationships with other friends or people Or with the God that you believe in. We talk about faith, about connecting the dots about our  experiences, self sabotage, travels and books and not staring at the past.  So often we don't listen to the signs and the whispers in the head that are edging them along.  Richard  now shares his love of reading and inspiration in his club of The Success Book Club. You will find him on Facebook there. He interviews authors and also reads from books he loves and has learned from.  The books mentioned are :  Don't Push Too many Trolleys : By Ying Tan Not Dead Yet: by Phil Collins   ------------------------------------------ Like this podcast ?

As many of you know, my mother passed away on April 12th after a struggle with Parkinson's and Dementia. She did not suffer long and my whole family was grateful for the time we had to be together to say good by, share memories and support my father as he continues on with his life.  I spent much of the week following her passing to think of how I could honor her at her service. I was encouraged by my husband Tom to speak and I am glad that he did.  Although my relationship with my mother was not always good, in the 57 years of life that she gave me, she did teach me many things. I chose a few of those to speak and share about at her service. I wanted to share those words with you.  I am encourage you to see the good even when there may be struggles. Take time to reflect so you can see what you have learned from others, especially our parents, those who gave us life.  What have you learned to value from your parent?  I'd love to hear.  Share with me on IG or send me a text at 708-977-7326.  Live your life and life it abundantly and honor those who have gone before.    ------------------------------------------ Like this podcast ?

Ive recorded an episode with this topic as I began my podcast last year. Its a powerful exercise to do at the beginning of the year or really any time. My women's circle that I am a part of challenges us to go through this exercise during our last support session with each other.  I challenge you to take time to think:  What will I stop doing?  What will I start doing?  What will I continue ?  I share my initial reactions and then what I felt as I dove a little deeper.  I'd love to hear from you and what you came up with.  When we take time to think about what is working our our lives and what is NOT and what we can accept to change...that is when the real growth happens.  Want to support the podcast ?  Start by buying my a cup of coffee:  https://www.buymeacoffee.com/juggling Check out the branded merchandise at Redbubble   Give it a 5 start review, subscribe and share .
