Cherry Hill, NJ -- Andrea Regal founded Applied Universal Alchemy based on the premise of “global evolution through personal evolution.” She says, “Every physical discomfort, be it in the body, in relationships, finances, work or living situation, is a guidepost leading us to explore and discover our own unique truth on the path of spiritual development.” Regal explains it takes an immense amount of energy by one’s subconscious defense system to suppress distressful feelings. Through her work, clients learn to free this energy and allow for the release and relief of physical maladies, emotional anguish, mental confusion, unhealthy relationships and constant struggle.
Andrea offers “Psychoalchemy” sessions, an energy field interface with the higher consciousness of the body through nonlinear models of healing allowing for shifts on physical, mental and emotional levels. facilitating personal transformation, wherein clients experience and receive guidance from a wider spiritual perspective that they can apply in daily life.
“Alchemical Transmutation Immersion” Sessions incorporate eclectic modalities of psychoenergetics to reveal the deeper ‘knowing’ within the psyche, transforming the body and energy field to create a radical shift in one’s perspective of reality. This expanded awareness enables new ways of relating to yourself, others, the planet and beyond. From this awakened consciousness comes alignment with one’s Soul Purpose, increased Life Force and connection to the multidimensionality within and around us.
She says, “We are the universe!”

Englewood, FL -- Denise Clark is a long-time nurse with a mission: to help attorneys and plaintiffs win their cases, and to help spread the word that this specialty she considers her second career exists.
Denise was always a skilled RN interested in expanding her knowledge base, in fact she has a Board Certification in Emergency Nursing, a clinical area she worked in for about 35 years. Few nurses have the initiative to undergo additional training and sit for an exam to attain that honor. Denise then went on to explore a new career, one that would utilize her clinical instincts and ability to explain things to patients in terms they could grasp. It was also a career that had more flexibility in scheduling. Denise is now an independent Legal Nurse Consultant with full certification.
It means she is a nurse who gives attorneys involved in medical cases a competitive edge, helping them analyze electronic medial records, develop reports and discovery questions, and prepare briefs or depositions.
“As an ER nurse there were many times I had to explain things to a patient. The doctors didn’t have time or used complicated terms. This is similar. We collaborate with attorneys to educate them and their clients on the nursing aspect of what happened to the patient. It helps jurors understand once the case goes to court. This is also lifesaving work.”
All those years in the Emergency Department helped Denise realize that no two cases are ever the same, even people with the same symptoms or diagnosis are after all, two different people, with distinct needs and desires that have to be taken into account.

Our curriculums are based on organic chemistry, general chemistry, anatomy, and biology. It’s all designed to be a hands on experience.”
“We also work with schools for field trips and assemblies, where we do the craziest experiments and then teach the students about it,” adds Zahraa. “Also, we offer after school programs. Other services include one-on-one tutoring, where the subject range goes beyond the sciences and includes other subjects, and the ages range from pre-school all the way to college level. She offers birthday parties where she serves liquid nitrogen ice cream and chemist breath balls, also made with liquid nitrogen. We also have Kid Chemist Kits that can be purchased online to continue the learning at home.”
One of the more unique aspects to Kid Chemist is that the students wear lab coats. Zahraa feels that this gives kids that boost of confidence, similar to how she felt in college when she wore her lab coat. “We want our students to feel like a kid chemist,” declares Zahraa. “We like to give back to our kids by offering them scholarships for a science fair that we hold.”

Rochester, NY – With over 25 years building a successful career managing teams globally in large Information Technology (IT) environments, and earning credentials in Sustainability, Katia Chaban is perfectly positioned to change the way businesses think. With her IT background, a Master's in Science and Technology, and a Doctorate in Business and Innovation, she is excited to help IT rethink how it engages with supply chains, rethink how they build and consume services, and rethink the challenges of product lifecycle.
"When you consider that humans are depleting Earth's resources so quickly and creating so much waste, that by 2030 we're going to need two planets to continue live, the message comes home. What we're doing today impacts our future. ReThink Strategies’ objective is to help shape our future so we can sustainably live on this one planet."
The word sustainability is very broad. Too many people immediately imagine tree-hugger. To add to this confusion, sustainability has different meanings to various industries and businesses. For Katia, addressing sustainability in IT is incredibly exciting because it's invisible.
If they aren’t already, businesses will start feeling pressure to report on these ESG activities (especially those that are SEC-based) . All businesses working or selling in the EU will have to adapt, and of course, if their consumers start to make sustainability important to their buying decisions, that will help create change. These companies have to begin rethinking now. ReThinkIt Strategies is ready to help guide them today for a sustainable tomorrow.

Indianapolis, IN – Eve Carson is the author of the book Simple, Safe & Secret: The 1981 Murder of Joan L. Webster. Eve seeks to keep alive the memory of her sister-in-law, Joan Webster, a Harvard Student, who perished in November of 1981, under very suspicious circumstances. Despite being a cold case and meeting resistance at every turn, Eve continues to seek justice for Joan.
“I investigated the investigation itself, and that’s where the problems were,” explains Eve. “It was a fabricated story – verifiably false. Authorities even today have circled the wagons to cover up malfeasance. There are a lot of things that can contribute to authorities being involved.”
In this new two-part radio series, Eve will offer a more detailed perspective surrounding this decades long cold case. Some of the material that Eve will discuss includes the cab driver at Logan Airport that last saw Joan alive, observations surrounding the Webster family, and how the documents that she was able to acquire do not match up with the investigation. She then will conclude with her views on how this case can and should be resolved. “To be silent, would make me complicit,” declares Eve. “Knowledge is very empowering, and has been healing in some regards.”
Eve actively calls for justice even to this day. In fact, she is in the process of starting a nonprofit called Victims of Injustice Speak (VOIS).

Phoenix, AZ – According to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, as reported by Fundera, approximately 20% of small businesses fail within the first year. By the end of the second year, 30% of businesses will have failed. For too many of us, success can be elusive. According to Kathy Taylor Salsbury of TaylorMade Consultants, that's because we all define success differently. "We all have different meters for success," explains Kathy.
"For example, one person can feel successful after 30 years on the job, while another will find that lifestyle stifling," Kathy elaborates. Entrepreneurs first need to think about how they define success.
"I created TaylorMade Consultants to eliminate these roadblocks to success," Kathy shares. "I'm also thrilled to be creating a legacy for my family with this family-run business."
Kathy and her daughter, Jazzmine Jacks, also offer personal styling services. "We've had clients who just didn't know what to wear to a meeting, so we go shopping for them, help with makeup, and work on presentation skills." TaylorMade doesn't stop there—personal style and branding is also offered for social media and websites.
TaylorMade also offers financing support, collaborating with lenders which work with challenging credit.
TaylorMade Consultants offers free 15-minute consultations. As Kathy explains, "I am in this for the joy of seeing people succeed. Taylormade's goal is to improve the percentage of failed businesses statistic in the best way that we can."

Omaha, NE – Ralph Abalo is a perfusionist serving hospitals across the United States and Canada. Unusually, he does not hold a doctor title. Neither as a medical doctor, nor having a doctorate, his highest education is a master’s degree.
“A perfusionist is a highly trained medical professional that works mainly in cardiac and pulmonary surgery to assist the blood flow during such surgeries,” explains Ralph. “The devices known as a cardiopulmonary bypass machine or a bypass heart-lung machine, acts as the heart and lungs during heart and lung surgeries. It contains an oxygenator, a reservoir, tubing, and a pump. The oxygenator is similar to the lungs. The reservoir is to hold the blood. Tubing connects from the reservoir to the pump which acts as the heart.”
He also started a charity known as Friends of Togo. Having become an official nonprofit in 2021 and later earing the 501c3 status from the Internal Revenue Service in 2023, Friends of Togo pays it forward to Ralph’s native country of Togo by improving education and health. In terms of education, his nonprofit provides school supplies to students and supports teachers by building classrooms. His ultimate goal is to build a library. In terms of health, one key objective of Friends of Togo is to vaccinate children against preventable disease.
Through his medical skills and his nonprofit, Ralph hopes to one day bring cardiac surgery to Togo. Even though he has no plans to be a surgeon, he is more than willing to share his skills as a perfusionist.

Royal Oak, MI -- Live Life Now with Purpose is the name of Nanette's ever-growing business and a central theme in the book that she wrote. It is the story of her personal self-care adventure, entitled Shattered Dreams and New Beginnings: A Journey of Heartbreak, Healing, and Growth. The book is featured on her own website and on Amazon.com and contains much of the advice about bouncing back from trauma and moving on with intention she shares with clients. Nanette’s writing has also appeared in Brainz Magazine, and she has been a featured podcaster on youtube. She also speaks at private events and before women’s groups, always covering the self-care for women and divorce subjects.
Nannette’s coaching relationships with women all begin with affirmations for the client: how strong they are, how much courage it took to even seek her out, and to ask for help in future steps. She lets them know that she has “walked in their shoes,” that a divorce coach can be more of a saving than an expense, and then together they define the goals for moving forward
Nanette notes that when women learn a divorce is pending, the first thing they usually do is hire an attorney, She believes they should start a coaching relationship at the same time, or even before. They should also make contact with a financial advisor early on. When you are sorting out 25 to 40 years of a life together, preparation is key.
“I recognize marriage is never easy and I sure don’t advocate for divorce. But if it does happen, knowledge and preparation are vital. There’s a process for getting out and you need to understand it.”

Her mission is to help as many individuals as possible, achieve optimal health while avoiding the overuse of medication and drugs that can pose risky side effects. Dr. Polly recommends seeing a chiropractor at the onset of minor pain before it becomes a serious problem.
Dr. Polly emphasizes that nutrition is a critical component of chiropractic care. Many of our pesky aches and pain that we experience throughout our lives, she points out, actually come from poor nutrition. For example, consuming excess sugar and loading up on junk food are huge contributors to inflammation that lead to severe joint pain. So before you pick up that next donut or drink another bottle of diet coke, Dr. Polly cautions us that poor health choices will lead to terrible consequences physically and mentally. Limit worry and stress as well. We must be our own health care advocates if we wish to be in the best of health today and in the future.
Dr. Polly says Your nervous system is the master system and controls every cell in your body, so it is the most important organ in our health and well being, so make certain to keep it functioning as it’s best every day of our lives. Preventative measures are always the best way to live a disease and pain free life.

San Diego, CA -- Edward Smink, PhD is a mostly retired caregiver who nearly lost it all until he came to the realization that he had an issue that he could not solve alone. He reached out for help and he credits his coach in saving his life. He learned the value of self-care, sharing his story, and valuing his emotions. Now he runs a coaching business, publishes books, and speaks on the topic of The Soul of Caregiving.
Dr. Smink notes that caregiving is a dance, a dance between caring for others and selfcare. We are hardwired as humans to give instead of receive, and we frequently neglect to care for our own selves. He has defined the term compassion fatigue, which is different from burnout, as being exhausted from doing something that you love to the point where it hurts.
Whether the caregiver is a family member, a healthcare worker, or a first responder such as a fireman, they can all reach that same point of exhaustion. They care because they are human. In his radio show, he will go over what he calls The Big Three Cultural Taboos caregivers face. Healing means to do the opposite of what we were culturally taught.
Dr. Smink will also talk about the new edition of his book which has questions and pages one can use to journal. It is not a how-to book, but a series of stories that will inspire caregivers and help them reflect on their individual emotions and experiences. It can help the provider do what they do best and still be supportive—without feeling overburdened or alone.
“Caregivers are notorious for not developing skills of self-care. Yet it’s not their fault alone,” he stresses.

Kitchener, ON -- Kathy Baldwin is an acclaimed author, speaker and coach whose work all focuses on the same subject: rising up from the pain, trauma, and challenges that keep us from being whole, empowered, and successful. This is one reason her business is named Rise Up Coaching.
Kathy shares her journey in speeches and books, such as the new release Unlearn the Crap about Personal Success and Empowerment: Shattering the Illusion of What it Takes to Become the Real You. This inspirational book provides a roadmap to overcome self-doubt and trauma and build a more abundant life.
Kathy says that often we don’t adequately process trauma and stress through our lymphatic system, and it can alter our biochemistry and create disease. Once we learn about the quantum energy field, it can all be released or transmuted. It is also important to rewire our brains to generate new, more positive beliefs
As a coach she helps people acknowledge their unprocessed trauma and cut the ties to anything that is disempowering. She guides them to understand the signals from their body and make a wise decision on what to do next. Some of her teaching is based on the universal laws of attraction, but Kathy notes that no one combines this with energy healing and empowerment tools quite the way she does. Kathy helps people realize that we can create ourselves and our futures.
“We can all create a new chapter and a new identity. Find the transition point and then, wow! It’s like a second puberty. Done with that past phase and on to what I want next. Only this time, we’re prepared for it.”

Huatulco, Oaxaca, Mexico – Get Your Vibe Right, a transformative online emotional support community founded by Body Code™, and Belief Code® practitioner, and mindset coach, Kary Vannice.
Kary originally started Get Your Vibe Right as a temporary solution to the isolation, fear and stress many women were experiencing because of the global pandemic in 2020. At the end of the pandemic, she closed the doors of the community thinking it had served its purpose, but years later, she is still seeing women suffering from high levels of anxiety, emotional isolation, and what she calls being emotionally “strung out” because of the uncertain times we’re living in.
So, Kary has once again decided to open the virtual doors to a new and improved Get Your Vibe Right community in honor of International Women’s Day on March 8th, 2024.
The women learn new healing strategies and tools, such as EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) or how to leverage the power of neuroplasticity to reset brain function and overcome limiting beliefs that hinder their physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Within the community, they start to thrive, not just survive. With these tools, they are empowered to shift out of stagnation, frustration and resignation and begin to manifest a life aligned with their deepest values.

Los Angeles, CA – Maurice J. Jordan is an aspiring speaker who seeks to educate others about mental illness, especially dementia. “I want to use my skills and abilities to bring to the forefront, by being a speaker, to talk about mental illness and to bring more awareness,” corroborates Maurice.

Maurice started noticing early signs of dementia in his wife back in 2017. She was officially diagnosed a year later. Maurice was determined to mitigate the effects of her dementia by keeping her mind and body active.
With his current experience, amazing backstory, along with a seventeen-year membership, and having made hundreds of speeches as a Toastmaster, he is the ideal candidate to discuss mental illness and dementia – in an informative, yet entertaining way.
Currently, Maurice is employed as a residential real estate property manager with SNT Properties. Most notable is his employment at Hillcrest Country Club where he was a chef, as his first career, and where they met.

Woodbridge, VA – Jenniffer Wilson is a well-respected employee of the federal government. Since 1989, she has worked for several government agencies with the primary responsibility of auditing. She has paid it forward by shifting her focus to training and mentoring other auditors.
“I am not a financial auditor for the IRS,” clarifies Jenniffer. “I am a performance auditor in the oversight community that helps to promote efficiency and effectiveness in agency programs and operations.”
“I have a lot of international experience combined with domestic experience, recalls Jenniffer. “The Department of Defense Office of Inspector General (DODIG) is where I started my work. I then moved to the Government Accountability Office (GAO). The Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) is where I temporarily stepped out of the audit world and became a certified project manager for information technology and got involved in major transformational initiatives. The Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) is where I held positions of escalating responsibility, eventually becoming the senior representative in Afghanistan. The Special Inspector General for the Troubled Asset Relief Program (SIGTARP) is where I became a board-certified senior executive. SIGTARP has to do with all the financial crisis money during the Great Recession. After, I moved to the Pandemic Response Accountability Committee (PRAC). That had to do with the money allocated for COVID-19 relief. Since October of 2023, I have been back at the Government Accountability Office (GAO) but this time, with the Center for Audit Excellence.”
“I love being a public servant and serving the American people,” concludes Jenniffer. “I have found it very rewarding through having a passion for what I have been able to accomplish – protecting the taxpayer.”

Cherry Hill, NJ -- Andrea Regal founded Applied Universal Alchemy based on the premise of “global evolution through personal evolution.” She says, “Every physical discomfort, be it in the body, in relationships, finances, work or living situation, is a guidepost leading us to explore and discover our own unique truth on the path of spiritual development.” Regal explains it takes an immense amount of energy by one’s subconscious defense system to suppress distressful feelings. Through her work, clients learn to free this energy and allow for the release and relief of physical maladies, emotional anguish, mental confusion, unhealthy relationships and constant struggle.
Andrea offers “Psychoalchemy” sessions, an energy field interface with the higher consciousness of the body through nonlinear models of healing allowing for shifts on physical, mental and emotional levels. facilitating personal transformation, wherein clients experience and receive guidance from a wider spiritual perspective that they can apply in daily life.
“Alchemical Transmutation Immersion” Sessions incorporate eclectic modalities of psychoenergetics to reveal the deeper ‘knowing’ within the psyche, transforming the body and energy field to create a radical shift in one’s perspective of reality.

Gambrills, MD – Dr. Richard Benjamin is currently doing economic consulting in the realm of energy. This encompasses various sub-disciplines within energy economics.
Currently, his focus is on the development of renewable energy resources. He plans to offer a research proposal to optimize the integration of variable, renewable, energy resources on electric grid operations. The paper in which Dr. Benjamin intends to do this is titled Optimal Pacing of the Energy Transition. He plans to submit it to energy publications, with the goal that it will also be seen by politicians, academia, and especially the general public.
“It’s regarding the necessity of firming up variable and renewable energy resources, such as wind and solar, through technologies such as energy storage while maintaining enough natural-gas-fired electrical generation to ensure the reliable transition of the grid to greater renewable penetration,” explains Dr. Benjamin. “The most basic issue that the world is dealing with right now is the transition to renewable energy in hope of attaining a lower carbon footprint. The issue is regarding energy windmills and solar and having so much renewable energy being produced on the grid. With renewable energy, the issue is variability. With renewables, you need to have a backup generation available to pick up the slack that wind and solar create when you aren’t getting much energy from them. That puts more stress on fossil fuel facilities.”
“It’s not necessary that we be in a great rush that we reach a certain amount of renewable energy usage within a specific timeline,” concludes Dr. Benjamin.

BOISE, ID – Carla Crane Osborne grew up, as one of her book titles boasts, Under the Barnyard Light, in Southern Idaho. Playing out there with a bunch of boys, most of whom were Crane cousins, not only gave Carla immense pleasure and set the course for a future in performing arts but also gave rise to her nickname Gona (one of the boys could not pronounce Carla and it came out Gona.) Gona sticks with her still and went into the names of her business, website, and YouTube channel: Gona’s Reading Ranch.
Carla’s first book, Under the Barnyard Light, was published in 2020 at a time when Carla’s four children were grown and her father, a central figure in the book and her life, was fading. While classified as a children’s picture book, adults love this delightful story as well, who cherish togetherness at dusk, when the natural light would change and automatic lights outside the barn would flicker on.
Carla is going to appear on the talk radio show to inform listeners about how her career, her five books (all true stories from her childhood), stuffed animal characters, and the regular readings on you tube have all evolved. She will let people know how to find her website, where they can purchase titles like Pony Express (2021) and Alex the Wonder Lamb (2022) that are so endearing to kids, teachers, parents, scouting groups, etc.

Chesapeake, VA -- The author known as J Marcelo Baqueroalvarez has at times been called Marcelo Baquero or even BeeZee, the nickname that shows up on his blog, which is called Half Life Crisis. Not to be confused with a midlife crisis, this title refers to the fact that most of us spend so much time toiling away to make a living that we forget to actually live. As Bee Zee prepares to leave the US Navy after over 20 years, his idea of living your life to the fullest will take on new meaning and direction. He jokes about rediscovering what’s at the end of the pier.
Bee Zee stresses that his constant goal is to create a better world through his writing, capturing events and issues that are intellectually honest, foster critical thinking, and help people from falling into the trap of divisive tactics.
As BeeZee prepares for his show, he is glowing in the praise of his latest book, Woke and Proud The Charlatans’ Inconvenience which was released early February and featured (along with his blogging expertise) recently in The Festival of Storytellers Roundtable Sessions from Book Magnet. BeeZee shines as a blogger for his honesty, wit, engaging family material featuring Alicia and Samantha. He is also noted for politicized views that touch on his vision—for example, the recent post America vs. America which highlights consistent indicators of a potential civil war and the undermining of our country’s global position.
“Sometimes we need something to reset. I’m happy to provided that kind of interesting detail.” Mr. Baqueroalvarez (BeeZee) says with pride.

Oakland, NJ – Barry I. Gold is a retired scientist who studied pharmacology and is especially knowledgeable regarding the opiate addiction crisis. “This is something that I am passionate about,” he emphasizes. He is also the author of two books, We’re Overdosed and the upcoming book Boomer Dad: A Lifetime of Endurance, Resilience, and Disconnection.
“I start the book We’re Overdosed, by discussing the history of opium and where it came from,” explains Barry. “This includes how heroin was invented.”
“I am trying to advance opiate education,” adds Barry. “I don’t give an anti-opiate message, as much as I encourage others to learn about this, so they can know the next time they come in contact with it.”
While Barry has made the painstaking effort to educate others about opiates, he also embraces the challenges of fatherhood at an advanced age, as he is a baby boomer.
“I am the single parent of a fourteen-year-old in addition to two older children, 49 and 47, from a previous marriage,” explains Barry. “I am in the process of writing a book titled Boomer Dad: A Lifetime of Endurance, Resilience, and Disconnection. Targeted to men and women who are baby boomers, it’s a memoir which highlights Barry’s life, past and present, including his two divorces, his children, and his global career in the pharmaceutical industry.
“Opiate addiction is a public health problem, and not a legal problem,” concludes Barry. “They are not criminals. They are sick people who need help.”

Langhorne, PA – Dr. Gerald Smith is the president of the International Center For Nutritional Research, Inc. (ICNR). He also is the brainchild and originator of the Frequency Shop. Dr. Smith maintains a private practice in Bucks County, Pennsylvania where his focus is in the field of energetic medicine.
Dr. Smith has written many articles and authored nine books, which are available through his website (ICNR.com) and Amazon. In addition, he created two online docuseries, Cancer Deconstructed and Energy Medicine. Dr. Smith eagerly seeks to educate others about energetic medicine as well as his knowledge surrounding the dental-whole body connection. Dr. Smith’s primary focus is on defining people and professionals on the root causes of the medical malady.
In addition to energetic medicine, his dental background offers a unique perspective surrounding the dental-whole body connection. “In my estimation, seventy to ninety percent of all medical problems have a dental origin,” explains Dr. Smith. “If you look at an anatomical drawing of the teeth, each tooth gives off a nerve, which is directly connected to your brain. For instance, if you have an infection in your tooth, it has the potential of going directly to your brain. If you have toxic materials, such as a silver-mercury amalgam filling, that mercury migrates from your tooth to your brain..”
“Do your homework and do your research before you subject your body to any conventional medical services,” concludes Dr. Smith.

She develops her own research protocols as a staff scientist. Most amazing is that she works in this hospital as a civilian, as opposed to being on active duty.

They also might be service members of all branches. It involves one-on-one interaction. There are specimens collected where we will do lab-based analyses on them. It is also human-based interaction that might be education and teaching study participants.”
“I have been conducting experimental and observational research studies along with a team of other health professionals for many years,” notes Mary. “Mostly, I have a strong interest in nutrition. I look at the elements of nutrition that impact the health and wellness of the individual. For several years, I have been focusing on nutrients – vitamins and minerals.

NEW YORK, NY – Margaret Enloe is a one-time lawyer who discovered her “second act” at a training seminar when she was a partner and Associate General Counsel at a Big 4 Accounting Firm. Her decades-long legal experience and the training at the Hudson Institute in Santa Barbara guided Margaret towards her new career as a professional certified coach and led her to establish a practice of her own. For the last 10 years, she has focused her skills, knowledge and energies on coaching people to articulate their goals and gain the confidence to act on them.
Margaret works with senior legal and other professionals to increase job satisfaction and resilience, improve leadership, business development and communication skills, and make career transitions. She speaks on these topics as well.
“People feel stuck. They know they want something more but are not sure how to get there. And many suffer from lack of confidence or what is known as the Imposter Syndrome. That’s where I come in. There’s an innate satisfaction in helping others to move forward.”
Margaret has faith in her capabilities as a coach and it starts with her natural interest in helping others, her positive attitude, sense of humor and her many years as a lawyer helping people in difficult situations. Margaret also underwent some of her own challenging life experiences which allowed her to better understand the stresses and strains people cope with. Living and working in New York City, with three children, is a trial in and of itself, she jokes.

Kearney, NE - Doris Burby can help you finally meet the guy of your dreams. As a certified Jungian life, Jungian mindset, and relationship specialist coach, Doris’ work is focused on working with our unconscious mind.
Doris explains in most cases, we choose these wrong partners for a variety of psychological reasons. We are literally attracting someone based on our unconscious so our unconscious attracts someone else’s unconsciousness. It’s a recipe for disaster.
According to Doris, we need to evolve and develop psychologically, and when we do so we won’t attract these types of people anymore.
So until we change ourselves, we will not only attract the same guys, but we will continually fill our wounds with alcohol, over spending, eating junk food, and vaping, and other maladaptive habits. When we find our romantic partners, we hope they will fill the void and rescue us. We expect them to give us something that we lack in ourselves. But that’s not what a partner is meant to do. Not until we do our inner work, and embrace the amazing potential we have, can we ever find the right relationship no matter where we search.
The answer resides in the unconscious, and Doris with her warm, practical, down to earth nature, expertly and magnificently assists us in doing the inner work. By asking us the right questions and helping us dig deep, she probes us into finding what we can’t see. Finally, we can love our authentic selves and let go of all the unconscious patterns that have been holding us back from genuine happiness.
Through her intense coaching work, Doris helps us connect with ourselves, find inner happiness, gratitude, and self-acceptance.

BILLINGS, MT -- Jennifer Tipton is a model of tenacity both for her work as an entrepreneur and previous career as an equine (horse) dentist. For years she bonded with animals, observing their behaviors, and understanding some of their natural grooming tendencies. She noted what felt good and comfortable and also what tugged, itched, or prickled during grooming times. It led her to develop an innovative grooming tool that can make any type of curly, shaggy, wiry, or horribly long coat neater and sleeker. Because it performs so quickly and simply, she worked the word easy into its name – SleekEZ.
In 2018, Jennifer’s SleekEZ (www.sleekEZ.com), became one of the top selling products on Amazon. But the journey of this specially bladed and toothed comb was long and hard, including personal battles with early stakeholders, resistance from patent attorneys, and rip offs by certain marketers and distributors. Jennifer launched the fledgling company with her own money and has since become an expert at living simply (instead of with extensive debt.) She even bought her last home for all cash.
Jennifer is a true animal lover and has always lived with a 4-legged family. For many years she was situated in Billings Montana. Most recently she has been living “off the grid” in a 40’ trailer with acres of land around her. She has 6 horses and 6 dogs with her, one of them just turned 14. Jennifer says the dogs are her eyes and ears in a remote area akin to the Wild West of US past. The animals also enjoy their property in the Northeast corner of Nevada which includes a creek that runs into a mysterious underground river. And that is just the tip of the phenomena around her.

Peterborough, NH – Deb Mills is an Energy Medicine Practitioner and the founder of The Radiant Soul. Established in 2019, her primary focus is using Biofield Tuning to help bring harmony and wellness back to our systems.
Biofield Tuning is a form of sound healing, developed by Eileen McKusick, that uses tuning forks in our energy field to help clear up the static and noise in our system. Where does this “noise” come from? Every thought, every emotion, every life situation affects our personal energy. Unprocessed emotions, negative thought patterns, or any kind of trauma, can trap energy in our field. The result is that this energy is no longer in flow. Using this transformational energy healing technique, the tuning fork’s coherent sound helps the body recognize the distortions and bring them back into balance.
Deb’s healing journey started when she was in the hospital for a chronic illness and a volunteer did Reiki on her. This opened her to the world of energy medicine. With 30 years of experience as a research scientist in Academia and the Biotech industry, Deb is always interested in learning. Since that first experience of Reiki, she has studied to become a Reiki Master, a Certified Crystal Healer, attended the Rhys Thomas Institute for Energy Medicine, and became a Biofield Tuning Practitioner.
Deb’s mission is to help people feel seen and heard; to break down the walls that are holding them back from living up to their highest potential, so their inner light can shine through, and they can experience happiness, fulfillment, and purpose in their lives.

WAKE FOREST, NC -- Denise Lucille has been blessed with several gifts that she uses to help people live a life full of health, harmony, and good fortune. One of those gifts is as a Numerologist, in fact, she waited for a certain fortuitous date in her own numerological chart to do her upcoming radio show with Doug Llewellyn.
Denise also has credentials as an ordained minister and uses her spiritual knowledge and training as a vessel while performing the various services she offers -- which include house blessings, smudging rituals, Reiki healing, energy work, and the Numerology consultations. All of these services are designed to uplift our energy, align our conscious thoughts, and help us to feel and live better.
All of Denise’s specialties have an underlying connection and that is Energy. Whether she is helping to clear negative energy from someone’s body (with EFT or Reiki) or personal space (house blessings), or when she is plotting their soul’s chart using numbers, Denise is always attempting to raise energy vibrations.
The third specialty that Denise will talk about on her January radio show is house blessings. She uses custom-blended smudge, candles and sacred holy water from a Shaman to remove negative energy from spaces. Far from the paranormal spirits people might think of, it is more a matter of removing the negative energy attached to the space and one’s possessions.

Rockland County, NY -- Yulia has an undergraduate degree in accounting and business and a master’s degree in taxation. She also has a wealth of experience to share. For about 10 years now, she has piloted her own firm, a consultancy that creates tax plans, retirement plans, and financial plans for small businesses, entrepreneurs, the self-employed and families.
Yulia helps clients in several ways. She enlightens them about things that might be deductible but were never considered, and ways to defray income from being taxable. It is a customized plan that involves a lot of questions and research to understand the individual, their business, their family, and everything they support personally and professionally. As a coach, she not only creates the strategic plan, but advises people on how to follow it.
“A good tax strategy can cut your bill by 80%. That’s huge, especially if it happens over and over for a few years.”
In the radio show, Yulia is going to talk about her experience, what she expects customers to know, and how to tackle the goals of different groups. For instance, the FIRE people (those seeking Financial Independence for Early Retirement.) There is also WATER (Wealth Accumulation for Independence and Early Retirement.) There are people who like to take long pricey vacations, people who either love stocks or fear their risks, and those who have an emotional attachment to their money. And then there are couples whose monetary concepts might not match.
“I try to help people secure themselves in any economy.”

Chesapeake, VA -- The author known as J Marcelo Baqueroalvarez has at times been called Marcelo Baquero or even BeeZee, the nickname that shows up on his blog, which is called Half Life Crisis. Not to be confused with a midlife crisis, this title refers to the fact that most of us spend so much time toiling away to make a living that we forget to actually live. You will learn more about this title and its meaning in his upcoming radio show. BeeZee will also talk about his work as a writer and blogger then, in particular his two full-length books Authoritarianism & Propaganda: The Puppet Master Tools and Woke & Proud: The Charlatans’ Inconvenience.
In his radio show, BeeZee will again explain how he got his nickname, and talk about some highlights of his naval career. He will illustrate the wit and intellect that make his blogs and books both thought-provoking and entertaining. He will discuss what prompted him to write this new book, the meteoric success of his first book, and how followers of his web posts have increased since that first book made its debut and his last radio show aired. It is all part of an effort to express his unique views on old-time politics and current events, enable people to be more aware of what’s been happening (none of it is accidental) and make more informed decisions and wise choices.
This is some of the wisdom BeeZee shares as he speaks. He also shares with an accent that related to his heritage and birth country of Ecuador. BeeZee came here as a youth with his mom and brothers. Today he is the ultimate symbol of the American Dream.

There's only three factors to look at to determine our health needs which are lifestyle, environment, and genetics so it is critical we need to collect data on all of these data points to determine proper therapies for each patient.

Morris, IL – Garrett Glass is the author of several historical fiction books which provide hypothetical, non-canonical accounts surrounding the growth of Christianity as described in The Bible. His first book in the series starts on the day of Christ’s crucifixion, and from there his books contrast two storylines: the path the earliest followers of Jesus took in response to his death; and the response of the Roman empire to this growing threat to imperial rule.
“The focus of these books is to contrast what was going on at the highest levels of the Roman Empire, against the activities and struggles of the small Christian communities that were popping up in all major cities of the Empire,” summarizes Garrett. “My approach is not to make this Biblical, though I am using individuals cited in The Bible. In writing Jehoshua: Signs and Wonders, and Jehoshua: Conflagration, I tried to explain why people at the time would construe certain events as miracles. Fundamentally, my novels follow major events as described in The Bible, or in the historical record.”
As a result of the Jesus Movement, Garrett became disenfranchised with the Catholic Church and religion.
To explain his own religious beliefs, Garrett authored Who Cuts God’s Hair. “I describe myself as an atheist, but with a big difference,” says Garrett. “I believe God exists, but I also know where he lives. In Who Cuts God’s Hair, I establish both where he resides, and why belief in God is the default position of mankind. It’s not delusional to believe in God.”

Auburn Hills, MI – Tarla Gernert is the founder of Homeschool Connections Educational Services, a homeschooling program based in Southeast Michigan. By utilizing classroom-like facilities, such as in churches, Homeschool Connections has provided a plethora of interesting, in-person classes for homeschoolers since 2002 and currently maintains five different campuses throughout the region.
Tarla identifies several myths around homeschooling. One is that the student is home all the time and has virtually no socialization with peers. Another, is that the parent has to teach their children everything themselves. A third myth is that homeschooling children miss out on many opportunities that other children have. Fourth, and most pertinent to current trends, is that a remote, online curriculum is best, but what Tarla expresses is that homeschooling can be very different.
“We provide educational opportunities for people who homeschool their kids,” explains Tarla. “We offer interesting classes taught by people who are passionate about what they know and want to pass that on to our students. Parents pick and choose the classes they want their child to take for the semester or year. Our classes are hands-on, and activity-based so It’s multifaceted learning where the students are engaged and everyone is participating. It’s designed similar to a college model, where the students get a syllabus, have to be prepared for class, and come in-person once a week for classes to do labs, experiments, projects, and activities that will enhance their learning.”
“Homeschooling is like a secret door,” concludes Tarla. “Whenever you enter into it, you find a rich, full world of learning opportunities to help you educate your children.”

Cincinnati, OH – Ronda Gish is an artist and founder of Captive Image 1, where she creates art, using various mediums. Most amazing about Ronda is that she never received any formal training, and everything she knows was self-taught.
“I paint with watercolor, oil, acrylic, and ink,” explains Ronda. “I even sculpt – work in clay. I do a lot of different things I draw. I have even written poetry and have been thinking of writing a book.”
“My subject matter depends on what has influenced me,” adds Ronda. “The inspiration depends on how I feel, or what is around me – people and events. I just sit down and start doing something. My mind is always going. I also receive a lot of commission work.”
One of Ronda’s most amazing projects, which took her over eighty hours to complete, was a stained-glass piece for Roger Reiman, famous motorcycle racer and head mechanic for daredevil Evel Knievel. She also recently painted a piece titled The World Today, which depicts and emphasizes diversity. It attracted the attention of national magazines. Another significant project was a meerschaum pipe that she hand-carved for a retiring police officer.

“Art is in everybody,” concludes Ronda. “Even the person that says ‘I can’t draw a stick figure’ – there is something there. Art is a great outlet for just resting your mind. Everybody should try it.”

BILLINGS, MT -- Jennifer Tipton is a model of tenacity both for her work as an entrepreneur and previous career as an equine (horse) dentist. For years she bonded with animals, observing their behaviors, and understanding some of their natural grooming tendencies. She noted what felt good and comfortable and also what tugged, itched, or prickled during grooming times. It led her to develop an innovative grooming tool that can make any type of curly, shaggy, wiry, or horribly long coat neater and sleeker. Because it performs so quickly and simply, she worked the word easy into its name – SleekEZ.
In 2018, Jennifer’s SleekEZ (www.sleekEZ.com), became one of the top selling products on Amazon. But the journey of this specially bladed and toothed comb was long and hard, including personal battles with early stakeholders, resistance from patent attorneys, and rip offs by certain marketers and distributors. Jennifer launched the fledgling company with her own money and has since become an expert at living simply (instead of with extensive debt.) She even bought her last home for all cash.
Jennifer is a true animal lover and has always lived with a 4-legged family. For many years she was situated in Billings Montana. Most recently she has been living “off the grid” in a 40’ trailer with acres of land around her. She has 6 horses and 6 dogs with her, one of them just turned 14. Jennifer says the dogs are her eyes and ears in a remote area akin to the Wild West of US past. The animals also enjoy their property in the Northeast corner of Nevada which includes a creek that runs into a mysterious underground river. And that is just the tip of the phenomena around her.

LAS VEGAS, NV - Madison Gulli is a professional known as a sexologist, which is not a term everyone will immediately get, but makes perfect sense—she is a trained clinical psychotherapist who focuses on issues that relate to sex. After obtaining her Master’s Degree and Licensure in Marital and Family Therapy, Madison decided the area she wanted to focus on next was sex, which can actually be a mental health issue but is often just a matter of wanting to have more enjoyable sexual relations..
She coaches people on many things that can interfere with their bliss—whether it is a matter of fears, rigid cultural upbringing, changing hormones due to childbirth or aging, or loss of libido. Many occurrences– even just the pressure of managing bills and daily life—can leave people feeling they are not themselves. Add in family demands and depressing current events, and it’s difficult to maintain one’s enthusiasm nowadays.
“People should not be too worried about life, and particularly, a sex life. Individuals, both men and women, need to be adventurous, playful.”
Giving and receiving pleasure, she says, should not be a teeter totter. Both men and woman need to understand they can give or accept pleasure without a sense of obligation.
“Sometimes one partner, or a couple, will come to realize that what happened in the past may not be sufficient now. They want to deepen their understanding of different skills and techniques. To learn to relate to the other one with a richer level of intimacy. I help them achieve their goals.”

Las Vegas, NV -- Dr. Adah Kennon has accomplished much but she is perhaps best known for her work as a novelist – writing romance novels that feature characters treated unfairly through no fault of their own, or who make self-destructive decisions. Free will is the unknown element. Will they overcome barriers which stand between them and their ability to evolve, accept help from the most unlikely sources and reach their true destiny?
A prime example is her most recent novel. The Blessing: Responsibility to Redemption is paranormal in nature. The main character, Ra, is a walking, talking aura that can shape shift and move from ethereal to human form to carry-out his mission in different dimensions.
A stand-alone product in it’s own right, The Blessing: Responsibility to Redemption is the first book in the Your Vibe…Now Mine trilogy. The provocative story line makes it Adah’s personal favorite and she hopes it will evolve into a television series.
In addition to relatable morals, Adah’s books feature a lot of vibrant imagery and a raw writing style. She doesn’t sugar coat anything. “Writing creatively is quite different than when I wrote reports as a psychologist.”
The Blessing; Responsibility to Redemption and all of Adah’s books are available through Amazon, Barnes and Noble online, her website and book signing events she does in her Las Vegas home area.

Kamloops, BC - If you read the Holistic Fertility Coaching website, you will learn some startling numbers about infertility in the US and even worse in Ashley Holmes’ Canada. Ashley herself was nearly one of those statistics about 13 years ago. She tried the traditional clinical route because it was all that she knew but was still anxious about striving to conceive. When she finally did, it was a high-risk pregnancy, birthing experience, and postpartum period.
All that Ashley learned about relaxing, shifting negative thoughts to positive ones, and focusing her energy, not only helped her to turn things around, but it actually became her avocation. Today she is the owner of a wellness practice that encompasses Reiki, assorted styles of Yoga and energy medicine disciplines.
Ashley is certified in Yin Yoga, Hatha Yoga, Therapeutic Yoga, Reiki (Level II) and other techniques to isolate and release blocked energy. What she once learned is a daily practice for her clients as well as herself. She now has three children, twins who are 10 and a 5-year-old.
Ashley notes that the relaxation and balance techniques she teaches can help at every stage of pregnancy, including delivery (a more open channel) and restoration after (due to a C-Section or new mother exhaustion.) Focusing on the mom, as well as the baby, is a different health mission, and she is glad to be part of the dynamic change.
Ashley offers her services, which also include Ayurvedic medicine, online via Zoom and on the health and wellness platform ViBLY.
She has also published much of her wise advice in downloadable guides and articles in Brainz Magazine.

Sonoma, CA - Lindsay Whiting is an author, independent publisher, and book coach iwho is equipped to help writers at any stage of the book publishing process.

Whether you need referrals to vetted editors or book designers, Lindsay helps writers achieve their goals and objectives.

Production planning helps to get books into print and distribution, and creating a sales and marketing plan will help authors raise their profiles and attract new opportunities.
Lindsay wrote and self-published her first book Living into Art, Journeys Through Collage, through her imprint, Paper Lantern.

Edinburg, TX - Today, systemic racism continues to persist in our communities and while the nation has undoubtedly made progress structural racism is still embedded and deeply rooted in our culture. Data and research show how Black Americans experience different treatment from their white counterparts. Even though we have become more racially and ethically diverse, hate crimes have been on the rise not only has it pervaded our economic, social, and civic systems but also how we interact with one another on a daily basis. Through individual and collective efforts, we have made meaningful progress where people have become determined to never give up till all people have equal rights.
The tragic cases of Eric Garner, Michael Brown, Tamir Rice, Breonna Taylor, and George Floyd all killed at the hands of police incited such outrage that massive protests ignited across the country as a cry for racial justice. The Black Lives Matter movement was formed from these horrific incidents of police brutality sparking major transformation across policing, education, entertainment, and more.

Indianapolis, IN – Eve Carson is the author of the book Simple, Safe & Secret: The 1981 Murder of Joan L. Webster. Eve seeks to keep alive the memory of her sister-in-law, Joan Webster, a Harvard Student, who perished in November of 1981, under very suspicious circumstances. Despite being a cold case and meeting resistance at every turn, Eve continues to seek justice for Joan.
“I began researching this case back in 2006, because the former prosecutor announced that he was writing a book about this case.” mentions Eve. “Having understood the case from the beginning, I understood that what he wrote was similar to the story that was promoted through the media. However, it did not match up with documents that I recovered.”
“The case is forty-two years old, and no one has been tried or charged with the crime,” explains Eve. “The state of Massachusetts alleged that Leonard Paradiso picked up Joan at Logan Airport, took her to a boat, murdered her, and then dumped her in Boston Harbor. Her body was missing until 1990, when her remains were discovered in a wooded area in Hamilton, Massachusetts – and NOT in Boston Harbor.”
Eve’s passion for this case manifested itself into a book that she authored – Simple, Safe & Secret: The 1981 Murder of Joan L. Webster. This book offers a more detailed account of the events, evidence, and people surrounding Joan Webster. She has dedicated the book in memory of Joan.

TUCSON, AZ - Robert Douglas has formed a coaching business, and it is a coaching business unlike any other. While he focuses on leadership, he does it in a way that blurs the lines between business consultant and life/transformational coach—by helping people make new and better choices and identify the leader they were meant to be (as opposed to the position they may have been assigned.) He molds real champions.
Robert is getting ready to retire from a long career in the US Army that has involved leadership roles. He says that the way they do things in The US Military Service is not always a best-case scenario—assigning leadership titles based on education or length of deployment. People in The Service must implicitly trust their leaders when a true leader should be earning the trust of their teams.
“I believe good leadership is more essential today than at any other time in history; a time when influencers are seemingly everywhere thanks to regular and social media. We need to grasp the responsibilities that come with influence and leadership.”
Robert has put some of his insights into a book titled Leaders Make Time: Leadership Philosophy Made Simple. He will discuss this book in his November radio interview, including a favorite chapter called Cowards Always Say Yes, which addresses how to set healthy limits, say no with grace, and ensure that we are agreeing to do is something we really can do.

SALT LAKE CITY, UT – Desiree Musselman is a certified coach and professional trainer who specializes in developing leadership skills and propelling people to true greatness.

The ELI-MP one is a real distinction: it represents the Energy Leadership Index (ELI), a tool for assessing leadership capabilities and personality traits.

It is also a springboard for building better and more effective interactions with people -- and how an individual might best navigate the emotional and mental parts of leadership. Desiree also has credentials from Integrated Wellness Academy that help this coach/trainer and her Desired Effects Coaching business to stand apart.

Loveland, CO – Susan Robbins is a top-notch evolutionary Epigenetics Human Performance Coach and founder of Healthy Awakening, a client-centered coaching practice with a focus on optimization of overall health and quality of life according to how you are created; precision health.
As an Epigenetics coach, Susan affirms the best investment you can make for yourself, your overall health and wellbeing is understanding your unique needs and how to successfully implement that knowledge and identify what works specifically for YOU. She guides, empowers, and teaches us how to fundamentally incorporate lifestyle components including diet, mind, exercise, sleep habits, even the environment around us to influence expression of our genes, thus giving us the ability to largely control our health outcomes. In other words, a genetic blueprint that predisposes us to disease is not a guarantee we will contract that disease, as it comes down to choices.
Susan works with 2 epigenetic platforms. She does DNA testing, and within her coaching program combines it with the ph360 Shae platform, which looks at how you are formed in the womb and the predominant hormones that drive you. She also offers epigenetic age testing, as aging is the number one risk factor for disease.
Epigenetics is how our lifestyle and environment affect how our genes express, and we can literally regulate outside factors to either turn on or turn off specific genes. Epigenetics coaching focuses on genetic expression.
You can’t afford to miss Susan’s upcoming interview with Jim Masters. Join us for a deep dive into understanding and unlocking the secret to living your best life. It will absolutely change you.

Chesapeake, VA - The author known as J. Marcelo Baqueroalvarez, has at times been called Marcelo Baquero or even BeeZee, the nickname for his Blog, known as Half Life Crisis.
Marcelo was born in Ecuador and came to the US in 1995, living in Florida. He owned a business with other members of his family dedicated to video and web production, and his degree was in commercial art and video production. In his 20s he was persuaded by those slick ad promises to join the Navy but was not initially assigned to the kind of unit he aspired to.
One day while on leave, Marcelo saw his true self reflected in the eyes of his old friends, and that’s when the realization that we are not truly living life to our fullest struck him. When he launched his website and blog, it was an effort to give voice to his own little rants, and to talk about things like music and art again, as well as create a platform for the work of his daughter, Samantha. She has used tools like abstract painting and black and white photography to voice the thoughts going on in her head, because she has a nonverbal form of Autism.
Marcelo has put his various thoughts into book-length manuscripts too, and on the radio show, he is going to talk about them. His debut book Authoritarianism & Propaganda: The Puppet Master Tools examines authoritarians from the Bolshevik Revolution to modern times.
Far from giving away Naval or Government secrets, Marcelo simply tells us all to take a closer look at what we have seen going on in the world these past few years.
“I get an opportunity to speak to the world and express what I find most interesting or relevant”

DALLAS, TX -- Michael Armour holds a PhD from UCLA (among other degrees) and has achieved impressive strides in diverse fields that include education, non-profit administration, ministry and the US Navy. He later founded a consulting company that speaks to his decades of leadership accomplishments -- Strategic Leadership Development International (SDLI).
As an executive coach, business strategist, and keynote speaker there are few subjects that he has yet to broach. Doctor Mike, as he is affectionally known, has coached close to 1000 executives and entrepreneurs. He has consulted with corporate leaders and individuals in nearly every business, industry, and geographic corner. He has shared his insights in numerous venues, such as training sessions, conferences, face-to-face discussions, and public addresses, as well as articles and even a bestselling book Leadership and the Power of Trust. Over the past five years, Dr. Mike has taken to podcasts to spread his messages about career and managerial success.
With this notable background, Mike Armour realizes more than most that highly successful people never tackle the biggest projects or issues alone. They thrive on the support, ideas, and feedback of people at the same career, emotional, and personal level. That is why they seek out others at conferences, networking events and increasingly nowadays in Mastermind Groups. This ensures that as one ascends the ladder, it is not a solo expedition.
Dr. Mike has served as the facilitator of such Mastermind Groups in the past and may be launching another one in the near future. So be sure to listen and learn and decide if you have what it takes to be part of these powerful initiatives.

Huntsville, AL – Melitta Thorn is an evidential medium, who also practices other spiritual modalities such as trance speaking and trance healing, and tarot reading. Melitta refers to her clients as sitters.
According to Melitta, “an evidential medium is a messenger between both worlds – our world and the spirit world. The evidence is what people can unmistakably recognize that it’s their loved one. They bring specific pieces of evidence. This includes mannerisms, likes and dislikes, how they dressed, what they looked like, where they lived and other pieces of proof.”
In trance speaking and trance healing, a spirit guide named Star Bright, speaks through Melitta. “I am just a vessel,” elaborates Melitta. “Healing can take place on the emotional level, physical level, mental level, or spiritual level.” Trance is different from hypnosis in their approach but both are altered states of consciousness.
Melitta also does tarot card reading. What makes Melitta different is that she feels that the future is not always set in stone because people have free will and can make decisions with an infinite number of possible trajectories and outcomes.
In the near future, Melitta plans to host more workshops where she plans on teaching how to awaken psychic abilities and spiritual awareness. “It’s not a gift, but an ability,” declares Melitta. I let spirit guide me to serve to the best of my ability to help people with their innate talents.”
“I am just so grateful that I have this ability to help people on both sides,” concludes Melitta.

Los Angeles, CA -- Partnerships have been an integral part of business in every industry, yet with the recent push toward “everything” being offered as a service, the dynamic of partnerships has evolved. When delivering customer outcomes, companies have more ways to partner now, not less. It is this dynamic that motivated Elaine Goodman to offer channel advisory services aimed at enhancing the performance of her clients’ channels and partnerships.
A channel, for those of us who are not experts, is an extension of a business’s salesforce and delivery mechanisms. It can consist of partners, resellers, independent sales representatives and a distribution network that all help to move a company’s solutions to customers. The channel takes care of functions that a company either can’t execute or chooses not to, by creating greater scale, breadth, and depth.
Elaine says that her vantage point as an advisor is unique because her experience unites best practices from multiple industries. In addition to high-tech and software as a service (SaaS), she has worked with clients in automotive, consumer electronics, sports, and hospitality/travel, to name a few. Each one of these experiences brings compelling learnings and processes that can later be applied to strategy and execution for go-to-market plans, programs, incentives, or demand generation.
Elaine‘s home base is in the Los Angeles area. As a channel leader for the last 13 years with a global technology company, she has launched multiple global initiatives, including new programs and a route to market.

Sonna’s past careers include being a spokesmodel for many well-known names, such as the giant COMCAST for whom she did and exclusive national television campaign; corporate training and workshop facilitation; executive sales and being a wife and mother.

Baltimore, MD – Nikia “Niki” Pratt is a “Moach” (Mom Coach) at To Know Thy Self LLC, where she coaches “mompreneurs” (mom entrepreneurs).
“Operating nationally and internationally, I have a one-on-one moaching program,” adds Niki. “Every mom I encounter is unique; therefore it’s not a one-size-fits-all program. The mom and I collaborate and decide which issues are most important to her and create a plan of action/framework together. The framework includes the mother and myself creating a mission statement for her life. This is extremely important because much like a business, the mission statement is the ‘Why’ behind her purpose”
“In addition to being a Moach, I am an international motivational speaker,” mentions Niki.
“I have the pleasure of adding the title of ‘author’ to my resume,” explains Niki. “Published about a year ago, the book I wrote is a novel titled Picture Perfect. It is a story loosely based on my life.”
Niki also announces her new line of t-shirts being released this month.
“The mission statement for my life is to operate at my maximum potential and live a life of abundance,” concludes Niki.

The signature program most associated with Lesley’s coaching is Reset Rebuild Restore. While the coaching offered can be one-on-one, group, or subscription-based community through Facebook, it provides the client access to a series of online courses. It also includes weekly group coaching sessions designed to help people shift out of the areas in their lives where they are stuck.

“The Innergetics process is a permanent solution for all eating and weight issues,” summarizes Shirley. “It’s permanent because I guide individuals to put their eating back in order, which means I reconnect the person to their original boundaries of eating.”
“Working in-person and remotely, I provide tools and guidelines to guide them to put eating back in order,” explains Shirley. “I created an online three-month course that has over sixty videos. It has handouts, diagrams, checkpoints, and a recording card. The recording card is used for all eating occasions and is a detailed system to create an unbelievable awareness of their start and stop regarding eating. I use all these tools along with individual coaching.”
Shirley also has four certified coaches that she has trained who utilize her methods. Two are based in England. One is based in Australia. The final coach is based in South Africa. “I worked with these four coaches who have gone through the process and also made sure that they not only live it, but can also teach it,” mentions Shirley.

Hermantown, MN – Dr. Prince Singh is a highly sought after kidney disease specialist and the founder of Kidney Solutions Pro LLC. Dr. Singh is trained in general nephrology (Mayo Clinic, MN) and transplant nephrology (Duke University) with a background training in Internal Medicine.
As a nephrologist, Dr. Singh can diagnose and treat kidney disease and if needed.
Kidneys as an organ are primarily responsible for cleaning your blood by filtering out unwanted and excesses substances. Kidney disease is defined as any kidney condition that can interfere with the function of the kidney. It ranges from chronic kidney disease, kidney stones, glomerulonephritis, polycystic kidney disease, and urinary tract infection.
According to Dr. Singh, diabetes and high blood pressure are among the leading causes of kidney disease among other causes such as kidney stones, chronic use of pain killers (NSAIDs) and autoimmune diseases.
Dr. Singh urges us to take proactive steps to protect our kidneys. Some important tips include drinking plenty of water, avoiding chronic use of NSAIDs (Aleve, ibuprofen, Advil), controlling your diabetes and high blood pressure among other things.
If kidney disease gets worse over time, your kidneys may stop working completely and at that point dialysis will be required to perform the function of the kidneys. Dialysis cannot cure kidney disease, but it can prolong your life. In some cases, a kidney transplant may be recommended.
Hope is on the horizon for treating chronic kidney disease as new drugs emerge where people may be able to delay dialysis or kidney transplants.

Beltsville, MD – Dr. Young Suh Kim was born in a farming-and-fishing village known as Sorae in Korea. Dr. Kim spent his teenage years in Seoul and completed his high school education in 1954.
In September of 1954, Dr. Kim came to the United States to become a freshman at the Carnegie Institute of Technology, which is now Carnegie Mellon University, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. While studying physics there, he heard about many famous people in the United States including Albert Einstein, who was based at Princeton University.
"I went to Princeton University in 1958 to pursue graduate work in physics, and to also meet Albert Einstein,” recalls Dr. Kim, “even though Einstein died in 1955.”
In 1962, Dr. Kim became an assistant professor of physics at the University of Maryland.
However, the reaction from American physicists was "Dashen is a genius, but Kim is only a Korean. Send him back to Korea." Dr. Kim thus went to his old Princeton professor for help, but his reaction was even worse. "Never come to Princeton again." However, the University of Maryland looked at Dr. Kim's case carefully, and he was promoted to an associate professor with permanent tenure in 1968.
After retiring from teaching duties in 2007, Dr. Kim became a Professor of Physics Emeritus at the University of Maryland. As a result, he retired from teaching, and he has been focusing full-time on research.
Other physicists that Dr. Kim has respected include Murray Gelman, Richard Feynman, and Paul Dirac.
“I believe in what I believe in,” concludes Dr. Kim. “I endured a lot of hardship in delays in promotion and I succeeded. That is what I am proud of.”

In addition, he works as a carpenter for Back Country Construction and Development, a construction company, and a property manager that manages nine different companies, overseeing more than seventy different units, two developments, and an airport.
“I build businesses from scratch,” clarifies Seth. “I find areas where a product or service is not being provided in the market and I will form a business entity, connect with vendors, or anything else that I need to do, to get it fully functioning by itself.

In September of 1954, Dr. Kim came to the United States to become a freshman at the Carnegie Institute of Technology, which is now Carnegie Mellon University, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

In 1962, Dr. Kim became an assistant professor of physics at the University of Maryland.
However, the reaction from American physicists was "Dashen is a genius, but Kim is only a Korean. Send him back to Korea."

However, the University of Maryland looked at Dr. Kim's case carefully, and he was promoted to an associate professor with permanent tenure in 1968.

Scotch Plains, NJ – Susan Lieberman is one such professional. She is a highly regarded Certified Holistic Life Coach, nurse, energy healer, meditation teacher, Keynote speaker, and owner and CEO of Pathways to Mind Body Wellness.
As a nurse for over thirty years, Susan has experienced first-hand a dysfunctional health care system where people are not being offered holistic healing. Instead, the system focuses on symptoms and prescription of medications that can have major side effects. Western medicine is very effective, especially for acute rather than chronic conditions. Many times, it forgets about the emotional component of healing that tremendously affects our mental and physical health.
Susan’s work is deeply rooted in an integrative approach as she supports us on our healing journey by viewing each person as a whole-body, mind, and spirit.
As an example, through somatic healing, Susan addresses trauma symptoms that can create dysfunction in our nervous system, which is affected by our life experiences and everything we think and feel.
Jin Shin Jyutsu, another energetic healing art, facilitates the flow of energy in our body. Energy blockages in the body due to stress, diet, lifestyle, and even environmental factors, can be a contributing factor to “dis-ease.”
Another healing modality she works with is Medical Qi Gong, which harmonizes the energy pathways (aka “meridians”) in our body by balancing our life-force energy or “chi.”
Susan’s warm, practical, and evidence-based approaches make her relatable to all the clients who seek her services for profound healing.

Kathi works to correct imbalances that interfere with our optimal well-being and functioning with remarkable results through energy healing and a dialogue that reveals truths from deep within the soul.

Her work began centering around soul transitions and grief. During her early nursing career in the 1990s she learned hands-on energy technique and was awestruck by its effectiveness. From 2015 to 2020, she worked with an integrative medical team at Canyon Ranch in Lenox, Massachusetts performing energy work that included preventive health to lower our risk of getting sick in the first place.
Kathi says it’s when we connect with Spirit to receive the grace and blessings available for us in the universe then we may not ever get sick or if we do, we can slow progression of any disease and live happier lives. This inspired her to write her book On Becoming You.
Through her unique group teachings and writings Kathi merges us to the divine life where the essence is a place of purity so we can become that person we were meant to be.

Hermantown, MN – Dr. Prince Singh is a highly sought after kidney disease specialist and the founder of Kidney Solutions Pro LLC. Dr. Singh is trained in general nephrology (Mayo Clinic, MN) and transplant nephrology (Duke University) with a background training in Internal Medicine.
As a nephrologist, Dr. Singh can diagnose and treat kidney disease and if needed.
Kidneys as an organ are primarily responsible for cleaning your blood by filtering out unwanted and excesses substances. Kidney disease is defined as any kidney condition that can interfere with the function of the kidney. It ranges from chronic kidney disease, kidney stones, glomerulonephritis, polycystic kidney disease, and urinary tract infection.
According to Dr. Singh, diabetes and high blood pressure are among the leading causes of kidney disease among other causes such as kidney stones, chronic use of pain killers (NSAIDs) and autoimmune diseases.
Dr. Singh urges us to take proactive steps to protect our kidneys. Some important tips include drinking plenty of water, avoiding chronic use of NSAIDs (Aleve, ibuprofen, Advil), controlling your diabetes and high blood pressure among other things.
If kidney disease gets worse over time, your kidneys may stop working completely and at that point dialysis will be required to perform the function of the kidneys. Dialysis cannot cure kidney disease, but it can prolong your life. In some cases, a kidney transplant may be recommended.
Hope is on the horizon for treating chronic kidney disease as new drugs emerge where people may be able to delay dialysis or kidney transplants.

Oakland, NJ – Barry I. Gold is a retired pharmacologist and author of We’re Overdosed. Barry attended the University of Cincinnati where he graduated with a B.S. in zoology. He was awarded a Ph.D. in pharmacology by Boston University and took a Postdoctoral Fellowship at Yale University’s medical school.
He has published in Woman’s Day, History Magazine, Parent.com, Ducts.org and the book Short Story Contest Winners by Warren Adler.
According to Barry, our health care system remains woefully sluggish in effectively responding to addictions and the urgency to ramp up ongoing efforts to treat addictions is critical. In order to address his growing concern, Barry was inspired to write his thought- provoking book We’re Overdosed which examines the history of opioids that began in response to combating chronic pain that so many people were incessantly struggling with.
From his scientific perspective, Barry shares his expertise regarding gaining control of prescription opioids through Federal legislation.
Although opioids are commonly used for pain treatment such as morphine, fentanyl, and tramadol prolonged use can lead to opioid dependance. Barry says although recovery from addiction is a lifelong process, it is absolutely attainable and there are multifaceted approaches and evidence-based treatments to helping individuals recover and live as valuable members of society.
Barry encourages us on how we must systemically and collaboratively make the road to recovery more appealing with the promise for long term outcomes.

Melissa’s fascination with neuroscience and how it applies to the world of business has been fundamental in her efforts to increase awareness for creating happier, safer, more fulfilling workplaces.

Marlton, NJ – Kim Condurso, founder of Quantum Origins, has been on a relentless quest for most of her adult life, to find the key to be able to unlock her and her family's health and happiness. Although it took years of searching, she has finally found this missing link which came with her discovery of energy medicine.

Santa Fe, NM – Tracey Whittet is a highly sought after Transformational Agent, Intuitive guide, certified spiritual healer, multidimensional body balancer, Reiki master, Creative Wellness Instructor, and energy healer. Tracey is also the co-author of The Magi Within: Unlocking the Gifts of the Inner Self. Her next book called Transmosis Healing: Realizing Wholeness is with her publisher now.
Tracey says the gift of healing is her calling. She is the facilitator of the Transmosis Healing process so we can become whole again. In order to do this, we must clear stuck energy mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. That requires inner work and tapping into our body, mind, and spirit.

No matter what you’re hurting from, even things that commonly ail us all like stress and grief, Transmosis is the key to restoring balance and sustainable growth. It is multidimensional healing on all levels, layers, timelines, and dimensions. Some call it Spiritual Hygiene.

Charlotte, NC – Melissa Domingo is a Certified Emotion Code and Body Code Practitioner at Purely Elevate. In addition, Melissa is a Complementary and Alternative Healthcare Practitioner and trained in Naturopathy, who specializes in energy medicine.
Created by retired chiropractor, Dr. Bradley Nelson, Emotion Code is according to Melissa, “a modality with a fundamental basic, where you are finding a heart wall, trapped emotions, or compound emotions, and then releasing those through magnetic therapy. These trapped emotions can create blockages, or emotional and physical ailments.”
Melissa observes that there are several types of trapped emotions. These include common trapped emotions, pre-natal where the trapped emotions were absorbed by the fetus in the womb by either one or both parents, pre-conception trapped emotions, inherited trapped emotions, and absorbed trapped emotions where you absorb an emotion from someone else because you don’t want them to hurt. People can even share trapped emotions with one another.
“The body code is much more detailed where there are six main imbalances,” adds Melissa. “There is energy, circuit/systems, toxicity, pathogens, misalignments, and nutrition/lifestyle.”
In addition to Emotion Code and Body Code, Melissa provides additional services. Her most prominent is Reams Biological Theory of Ionization (RBTI). RBTI, is a urine and saliva test to see how the digestive system is running.
“No matter how low your valley is, you can get up to the mountain,” concludes Melissa. “You have to look at the wins and the losses to press forward and I can be that bridge to help you on that path.”

Green Bay, WI – Michelle Poole is an energy healer and the founder of Reclaim Balance. Established in 2018, she currently specializes in sound therapy, emotion code, and body code.
According to Michelle, energy sound therapy is more than just singing bowls. “While singing bowls are more for a group setting, energy sound therapy is targeted for the individual with one-on-one sessions,” clarifies Michelle. “I start my sessions by asking the client what they would like to work on. They can tell me as little or as much as they want.”
“Every emotion has its own frequency and its own frequency card,” adds Michelle. “The body identifies that emotion by its own frequency and they are all unique. Taking the average adult between sixty to ninety minutes in a typical session, the speakers are placed on the body with the objective of releasing the trapped emotions.”
Emotion Code, like sound therapy also addresses trapped emotions. What makes Emotion Code different is that in addition to addressing trapped emotions, it also addresses inherited emotions, absorbed emotions, and heart walls.
“Body Code is a Level 2 to the Emotion Code,” explains Michelle. “Body Code has Emotion Code within it, but it focuses on rebalancing the entire body. Emotions, if stored long enough, can wreak havoc physically. Energetically, with the use of a magnet, we can realign the physical body.”
In addition to the current modalities practiced by Michelle, she currently is working on her certification in a new energy healing modality known as Belief Code.

Nashua, NH -- Ronald J. Glossop is a man who stands apart in many ways, starting with his name and birth to his career achievements, as a great thinker and educator.
Ronald’s last name is derived from a town in England near Manchester that he once visited (he has travelled extensively in his lifetime). Ronald also was born a twin; his older brother was named Donald after their dad and Ron was given a first name that went with Donald.
Ronald analyzed things and had deep thoughts as a youth and once considered going into the ministry, but later he changed his path and went into education. In 1960 Ronald got a Ph.D. degree from Washington University in St. Louis. He began teaching at Boise Junior College in Boise, Idaho. Today, he is best known among Esperantists as "Professoro Ron," and he has had a notable career in public and state universities, both near his childhood home in Aurora, Illinois near Chicago and then his wife’s ancestral home in St. Louis Missouri. For a little over a year now, after his wife’s death Ronald has lived in New Hampshire with his son, who is a computer guru.
Ronald is also heralded as an author. In 1974, he wrote Philosophy: An Introduction to Its Problems and Vocabulary, and it was a best-seller. He also published World Federation (2001) which was also printed in an Esperanto translation as Monda Federacio. Professor Ron stresses that Esperanto is such a great language because it is easy to learn and is pronounced just the way it is written.

Lake Havasu City, AZ – Glenda Olmstead is a highly sought after Emotion Code and Body Code practitioner. Glenda has a BS in Sports Science and is Certified Personal Trainer through the Cooper Aerobic Institute in Austin, TX. She is also certified as a biomechanics trainer by the Justin Price institute.
Based on the fact that everything is energy, the Emotion and Body Code balances in these different aspects: emotional, energetic, nutritional, structural, pathogens and toxicity. Anything that is imbalanced in the body is able to be identified and corrected.
Glenda reminds us that this technique is not meant to replace any medical treatment, but by correcting underlying imbalances, we help the body’s innate self-healing ability to take over. As a result, discomfort and malfunction in the body often disappear, the organs function as they should, nutrients are absorbed properly, energy levels are raised, and emotional issues become manageable or nonexistent.
Glenda underwent her own dark times when her beloved husband tragically passed away from a brain tumor attributed to long term exposure from cell phone usage. Through that experience she became very interested researching EMF's and the energy fields that affect us. This prompted her to take a second look and to her amazement she discovered how our bodies are a superhighway of energy currents and there were numerous miraculous energy healing modalities that promotes overall wellness that heals us mind, body, and spirit. It dawned on Glenda that rather than help her clients through physical training as a biomechanics and Wellness coach she could utilize two of the most practical and effective tools the Emotion Code and the Body Code.
Glenda believes that we when are fully healed, we can shift our mind into balance and harmony resulting in self-love, inner wisdom, and enlightenment.

New York, NY - As Maureen Santora prepares for her two radio appearances this September, the nation is preparing to observe Patriot Day, a name designated for September 11th. Then President Obama proclaimed it as “a time for Americans to honor all those who lost their lives to the heartbreaking attacks of September 11th and made the ultimate sacrifice to our country.”
Maureen’s only son Christopher was one of those special Americans. He had always wanted to be a hero as a child and had his chance to do that on 9-11. But sadly, he perished, and it changed Maureen’s life forever.
Christopher had also wanted to be a firefighter, as close as he could get to the comic heroes he’d loved as a child. Chrisopher eventually became one and also achieved goals in his mother’s field, teaching.
To honor his legacy Maureen took the government issued funds, as well as a chunk of her own retirement money, and launched a scholarship fund in his name. The happiest people, she believes, are givers.
“He was such a scholar and loved life. He was an athlete and so gracious. I wanted to honor him and to perpetuate his work.”
Now, 20 years later, The Christopher Santora Memorial scholarship has given out $ 700,000+ and helped foster the dreams of numerous students.
Marueen herself was a teacher from 1967 until a recent retirement. She wishes debate teams and cursive writing were part of the school experience the way they were in her best years of teaching.

DALLAS, TX - For decades, Mike Armour (or Doctor Mike, as he is popularly known) has compiled an exceptional leadership record in far-ranging fields of endeavor. He is a multi-dimensional achiever, and it consistently puts him in demand as an executive coach, business advisor and trainer-- focused on management, leadership, cultural transformation and other aspects of enhancing performance at any level.
In his September series, Doctor Mike is going to discuss an intriguing topic that applies in both personal and Business/Executive coaching scenarios: Abundance, and more specifically, Abundance as a State of Mind. Week-by-week he will talk about creating a sense of abundance within, why abundance is a mindset, and the aspects of leadership that inspire abundance in the workplace.
Doctor Mike holds a PhD from UCLA and has achieved impressive strides in many different fields, from naval intelligence to university administration, to motivational speaking (much like Covey and Marshall Goldsmith.)

It is a means to reach, inspire, and educate executive level leaders. In each milieu, a sense of abundance can be beneficial, particularly if it comes with the best of intentions (helping not hoarding) and the desire to reach a professional peak.

He is the author of over thirty non-fiction books about theatre, film, and popular music, including Musical Misfires Three Decades of Broadway Musical Heartbreak, The Oxford Companion to The American Musical, and his newly released Broadway Decoded.
While in high school, Thomas’s interest in Broadway musicals and their cinematic versions came to life after seeing My Fair Lady and West Side Story. The subject matters, performances, and musical numbers spoke to him so powerfully it launched his writing career and beginning in the early 90s’s he started writing. Although most of his books pertain to musical theater he has also written about film and popular music of the past as well as lesser- known parts of Broadway musicals. Now retired from the university and happily living in St. Augustine Florida he teaches theater and film part time at Flagler college.
In his upcoming interview, Thomas will be discussing his latest release, his well-researched Broadway Decoded, an excellent resource about Broadway musicals. He chose fifty of the most produced and well know musicals and lists all the expressions and idioms that we don’t typically understand and brings them to light. It’s a fun read as well as useful and practical.
Thomas graciously emphasizes that he writes books not for the “scholars,” but your average run of the mill individuals. Even though impeccably researched they are not meant be boorishly academic but lively and fun.

Hollywood, FL – Let’s admit it: we are a society that lives to eat. In fact, we are continually centering everything we do around food. Every social event we attend is paired with food.
According to Joe Carvalho, even eating just one meal a day can be very beneficial. This is otherwise known as intermittent fasting. It can help you burn fat and improve your metabolic health. Simply put, humans don’t need to overstuff themselves with food.
Joe also insists we must greatly reduce or eliminate sugar consumption because cancer and many “diseases” have been linked to consuming massive amounts of sugar, as seen in the SAD (Standard American Diet). He suggests drinking unsweetened coffee and iced tea, if not just water.
Moreover, it’s a myth, he says, that cholesterol per se is bad for us when it’s actually essential for good health. We need cholesterol to make hormones and build cells.
Joe also has some interesting thoughts for those of us who are on vegan diets to take precautions on what ingredients are actually in our meatless burgers, and other non-meat products, as many are filled with sugars, vegetable oils and various chemicals. He urges us to be wise consumers and check all food labels.
“Clearly food is double-edged straight line to both health and illness” says Joe.

New York, NY - As Maureen Santora prepares for her two radio appearances this September, the nation is preparing to observe Patriot Day, a name designated for September 11th. Then President Obama proclaimed it as “a time for Americans to honor all those who lost their lives to the heartbreaking attacks of September 11th and made the ultimate sacrifice to our country.”
Maureen’s only son Christopher was one of those special Americans. He had always wanted to be a hero as a child and had his chance to do that on 9-11. But sadly, he perished, and it changed Maureen’s life forever.
Christopher had also wanted to be a firefighter, as close as he could get to the comic heroes he’d loved as a child. Chrisopher eventually became one and also achieved goals in his mother’s field, teaching.
To honor his legacy Maureen took the government issued funds, as well as a chunk of her own retirement money, and launched a scholarship fund in his name. The happiest people, she believes, are givers.
“He was such a scholar and loved life. He was an athlete and so gracious. I wanted to honor him and to perpetuate his work.”
Now, 20 years later, The Christopher Santora Memorial scholarship has given out $ 700,000+ and helped foster the dreams of numerous students.
Marueen herself was a teacher from 1967 until a recent retirement. She wishes debate teams and cursive writing were part of the school experience the way they were in her best years of teaching.
For more information about the Christopher Santoro Educational Scholarship Fund, check out this video interview Maureen and her husband Al had with our host Jim Masters https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iE4jmeaYusA

After doing so, we can be empowered to live up to our fullest potential.
She is passionate about helping others learn to live wholeheartedly, as a way of intentionally living life! She says, “Decluttering your relationship with yourself and your past helps you see a new path forward, because the most pivotal relationship we have is the one with ourselves.”
In fact, clients in her Wholehearted Living program discover that, through the exploration of their own stories with complete authenticity and vulnerability, they acquire self-compassion. They also come to realize they are not alone and learn we all have much more in common with each other than they could imagine.

Reading, PA – Brenda Russell is a forensic psychologist, highly sought after key known speaker, dedicated feminist, and the author of five books, "Gender and Domestic Violence: Contemporary Legal Practice and Intervention Reforms, Oxford University Press" "Intimate Partner Violence in the LGBT+ Community" "Online Research Essentials", Jossey Bass-Wiley, and "Battered Woman Syndrome as a Legal Defense", MacFarland, Inc., and "Perceptions of Female Offenders: How Stereotypes and Social Norms Affect Criminal Justice Responses", Brenda has two more books coming out early next year including a two volume second edition of Perceptions of Female Offenders.
Brenda is best known for her exemplary work on interpersonal violence and sexual harassment with a dedicated focus on elevating awareness. Her recent research investigates domestic violence myths towards male victims, exploring how the legal and criminal justice systems can evolve to recognize and serve all victims equally.
She recognizes that this traditional gender paradigm with its notions of masculinity and femininity, does not fit in our evolving society. Her mission is to shine a light on the obscured reality that abuse is not confined to gender and that heterosexual male and LGBTQ individuals are also victims of these crimes often at similar or higher rates.
Brenda does not intend to minimize the abuse of women, but rather seeks to create a society where all victims of abuse are treated with the dignity, compassion, and understanding they deserve, no matter the gender identity or sexual orientation. She assertively stands against the trivialization of abuse for all victims and works to help others recognize these crimes as a human issue, not a gendered issue.

Climate change presents us with a very high price tag, perhaps one that is unaffordable.”

MILWAUKEE, WI -- Victoria J Mondloch is an inspiring physician who is doubly certified and has changed her career focus several times—from group to private practice, from OB/GYN to General and Internal Medicine, and later to holistic, wellness, and alternative therapies.
The doctor has spoken often on this web radio channel and is about to wrap up an extensive series. She has discussed novel therapies in the past, including the purest collagen supplements, blended medicine, bio-identical hormone replacement, and wellness models. Doctor Mondloch, or Dr Vicki as patients affectionately refer to her, has also been most vocal on her feelings about disparities in the way American Medicine is provided, and the demise of old-fashioned doctor-patient relationships.
She is going to approach some of the most provocative topics yet—from Regenerative Medicine (once referred to as Stem Cell Therapy) to Energy Medicine. She will also address aging and anti-aging, exploring the shades of difference between Dementia and Alzheimer’s disease, and novel approaches to treatment for them both. The doctor will also revisit favorite topics from past shows and her books, such as auto immune disease and hormone balancing therapy.
This is a can’t miss opportunity to hear from an authority in medicine who has more than 35 years of practice experience and treated patients with unprecedented success—and that includes the hormone balancing she did for herself. Mondloch is also a noted author, with two books and numerous articles published, and a trainer and curriculum developer for other physicians at the leading edge of care.

Milwaukee, WI -- Victoria J Mondloch has more than 35 years of experience in private practice with the bulk of it focused on wellness. She blends traditional medicine with alternative health modalities to help people stay out of hospitals, avoid select medications with scary side effects, and feel more vital and youthful. She also emphasizes lifestyle changes for optimal health. She has made a name for herself in the field of hormone balancing, a subject many other practitioners pass on, and an area of health management that affects many other aspects of disease, particularly as we age.
Dr. Mondloch has written two books about the changes our hormones go through as women reach certain life stages. It is a subject of high interest to women, yet also applicable to men. Of course, women facing menopause are known to experience certain symptoms, say night sweats or changes in libido, yet balancing hormones can impact many other areas of wellness: improved sleep, better short -term memory, healthy skin/less skin rash; even less muscle cramps and less restless leg syndrome. And further, improvements in GERD, even reducing the risk of heart disease and some cancers! Hormones regulate EVERY facet of our physical, emotional and mental health and well-being.
In her upcoming shows, Dr. Mondloch will explain the various hormone-secreting glands in the body and what they control.
Mondloch will further introduce the topic: The Fragmentation of Medicine. There was a time when hormone disorders, were something a general practitioner would oversee, but today the trend is a trip to the Urologist or Endocrinologist.

Lloydminster, SK - Bonnie Wirth is a highly regarded Empowerment Strategist, Emotional Resilience Expert, and Mentor.
“Every relationship we have requires accountability coupled with responsibility. Accountability is a fundamental principle that creates healthy bonds and nurturing relationships. It involves acknowledging and owning up to our mistakes and wrongdoings, taking responsibility for the consequences of our actions and making amends whenever necessary. Accountability fosters trust, demonstrates integrity, leads to mutual respect and the overall health and longevity of any relationship.”
Bonnie explains that accountability is expressed by taking ownership for our actions, by saying “I am sorry”, and admitting to our mistakes. Responsibility is the duty to correct past mistakes and take some form of action to set things right and be mindful of each other. Accountability allows us to work together towards a resolution.”
Through Bonnie’s coaching work, she guides her clients to become more empowered in their choices, to be more accountable for their lives, and develop healthier habits and behaviors thus creating a ripple effect of positivity in their own life and the world around them.
“Placing blame on one another and finger pointing is one of the worst ways to handle conflict in any relationship. By creating a culture of accountability, we foster trust, honesty, and continued self-improvement. In doing so we create a life where we feel empowered, we feel good about ourselves, and we will inspire others. Accountability is courageous and is the antidote to finding peace within us and the world around us.”

I have taken all the experience I learned in these cases to create Leave Management Solutions (LMS). I realized that these lawsuits had much to do with the implementation of these regulations, specifically when they run concurrently, or if there is an ongoing harassment or discrimination investigation with a stress component that requires FMLA. LMS has the tools and resources HR needs, plus an annual membership, which includes free bi-weekly consulting meetings that enable me to mentor HR responsible for managing leaves and accommodations in the workplace.”

Milwaukee, WI -- Victoria J Mondloch has more than 35 years of experience in private practice with the bulk of it focused on wellness. She blends traditional medicine with alternative health modalities to help people stay out of hospitals, avoid select medications with scary side effects, and feel more vital and youthful. She also emphasizes lifestyle changes for optimal health. She has made a name for herself in the field of hormone balancing, a subject many other practitioners pass on, and an area of health management that affects many other aspects of disease, particularly as we age.
Dr. Mondloch has written two books about the changes our hormones go through as women reach certain life stages. It is a subject of high interest to women, yet also applicable to men. Of course, women facing menopause are known to experience certain symptoms, say night sweats or changes in libido, yet balancing hormones can impact many other areas of wellness: improved sleep, better short -term memory, healthy skin/less skin rash; even less muscle cramps and less restless leg syndrome. And further, improvements in GERD, even reducing the risk of heart disease and some cancers! Hormones regulate EVERY facet of our physical, emotional and mental health and well-being.
In her upcoming shows, Dr. Mondloch will explain the various hormone-secreting glands in the body and what they control.
Mondloch will further introduce the topic: The Fragmentation of Medicine. There was a time when hormone disorders, were something a general practitioner would oversee, but today the trend is a trip to the Urologist or Endocrinologist.

Helena, MT - Brielle Gurr is a top-notch practitioner certified in The Emotion Code, working towards certification in The Body Code, and owner of Spring Seed Wellness.
“The reason the Emotion code is such a miraculous, powerful, life changing energy healing technique is that it removes the energy of trapped negative emotions like anger, fear, depression, and shame, that have been lodged in our bodies that can date back to our childhood and even earlier. Through the Emotion code, I help you to connect to your subconscious mind, find and release the root cause of the problem, and free you from these trapped emotions. This can alleviate chronic pain and bring profound healing to your mind, body, heart and spirit.”
Brielle says that healing from our old wounds is critical to healthy living because left to fester in our bodies, we begin to feel resentment, anger, and disconnected to our loved ones and people in general. As evidence has suggested, when we continue to suppress our feelings over time our negative emotions can lead to disease, chronic illness, and mental health conditions. On the other hand, when we begin to heal, we can live with gratitude, joy, self-love, and be aligned with our authentic selves, which are all key to greater happiness and fulfillment.
Brielle underwent her own struggles and dark times. It was when she heard about Energy healing that she began furtively researching natural healing modalities that she instantly connected with the Emotion code. Over time she began to feel like a new person. Renewed, re-energized, ready to take on the world. In fact, she became so inspired that she realized becoming an emotion code practitioner was her true calling. Today, with her warm, approachable, down to earth practical style, she is helping many other individuals find their own path to most optimal health and wellness.

Huntington Beach, CA – Daniel Anselmi is a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) at Guiding Empathy Inc.
“I provide mental health therapy services for a variety of individuals and age groups,” explains Daniel. “Often times, people come to me with relationship issues, communication issues, difficulty controlling their emotions, being confused about who they are and who they wuld like to be.”
Daniel offers both in-person and telehealth services. He works with a broad group of individuals with diverse backgrounds and situations. The person seeking him out may be an adult, adolescent, or child. It may be an individual or a couple. It may be someone with a chronic medical condition which affects their mental health.

Officially becoming licensed as an LMFT in August 2017, Daniel started working as part of a group mental health practice. Then, in November 2019, Daniel left the practice and founded Guiding Empathy Inc., established on Daniel’s principle of “empathy first, problem-solving second”.

NAPA, CA -- Jayson Uribe is a talent whose name is synonymous with achievement. For this amazing young man, it is not a matter of achieving for self-grandeur; the quests that count most to Jayson are ones that enable him to solve nagging problems and help other people. That holds particularly true for his work as a volunteer firefighter and his Code 3 Consultations services.
While Jayson is recognized for his career as a motorcycle rider and motor sports trainer, his recent focus has been as an accident investigator who specializes in vehicular analysis of car, truck and motorcycle-related incidents. Jayson carefully determines the probable cause of them and helps clients uncover the truth in court cases. When diagnosing such situations, he uses 3-D recreation technology, an advanced degree, and an innate understanding of vehicle mechanics and road conditions.
He also boasts 20+ years of experience in the motorsports industry, a coaching background, a 5-year EE degree plus apprenticeship, and several years of experience in private vehicle investigations. In addition to his expert witness testimony and analyses, Jayson continues to ride and fight blazes
Jayson had been interested in firefighting for a long while and finally found the means to make his wish come true. He underwent the 6-month training program from the Napa County Fire Department in June of 2019, and has been a member of the volunteer-staffed Station 21 in Deer Park ever since.
“I have to know more about what happened and find out the genuine answer to the puzzle,” Jayson explains.

Brooklyn, NY – Lance Growth is the co-founder of Growth 1031, Inc., an exchange accommodator headquartered in Brooklyn, NY and San Diego, CA.
According to Lance, a 1031 exchange is a “tax shelter where people who sell investment properties can use to defer paying capital gains tax.”
According to the tax laws, an investor has 180 days to make a 1031 exchange, with the first forty-five days given to identify a property that they want to invest in.
“People think that a 1031 exchange is a tax loophole for the rich, but it’s a tax loophole for the informed,” explains Lance. “Anybody can do it with a property worth $5,000,000 or $50,000.”
“Because people are nervous when they do this, we offer personalized service and will offer our cell number to them,” touts Lance. “We want to assure them that they have a support system throughout the entire process.”
As Lance is eager to get the word out about 1031 exchanges, he hosts a webinar every two weeks which offers additional information and opportunities. “We’re very big on education,” confirms Lance.
Lance has been featured in Opportunity Zone Magazine as one of the Top Ten Most Influential People in the realm of Tax and Real Estate.
“People have to start making decisions about their money,” concludes Lance. “People should learn more about the benefits of a 1031 exchange and how to reinvest their money into real estate.”

Hinsdale, IL – Michelle Sherbun is a highly regarded leadership coach, award winning fundraiser, and classically trained vocalist and actor.
“My primary job as a coach is to simply help people get out of their own way. My clients know the answers, but their fears and false expectations hold them back. When we name our fears, we take back our power and the freedom to choose what can make dreams a reality. When we get out of our own way, we become the best versions of ourselves.”
Prior to becoming a coach, Michelle had an extremely successful career as a consultant for non-profits.
Michelle also focuses on developing transformative leaders. She says top-down management, autocratic leadership, is rigid and does little to create a productive workplace.

Women with diverse experiences come together once a month to support each other as they discover and reclaim their personal an professional voices. Together they explore their deepest dreams and goals, and spark new thinking and innovation – all the while encouraging clarity, passion, and purpose in their lives.

New York, NY – Emmanuel Joseph Ajala is a biomedical researcher and principal investigator on a relentless quest to resolve some of the scariest diseases of our times, which includes cancer, diabetes, HIV, Ebola, Zika, and especially COVID-19. Some of these quests began when a person near and dear to him was stricken by a particular disorder and he wanted to get to its root cause, such as Frontal Temporal Dementia and Breast Cancer.
Emmanuel was born in Nigeria and came to the US to attend university as his studies advanced. He has a BS in Chemistry and an MS in Chemistry and is a candidate for his PhD. He was also invited, in the middle of his studies, to attend Medical School for Podiatry, and has worked as a professor, surgical technician and research scientist. He is a member of the American Association for the Advancement of Chemistry the American Chemical Society, and the New York Medical Association, and was featured in multiple Who’s Who editions. He has many more years of experience than other researchers; scientific expertise that enabled him to get to where he is today.
He is certainly a scientist in eminent standing, and while employed full time in the daytime, it is the night-time work in his own private company that has the most significance.
One study that Emmanuel Ajala is heavily involved in, is silencing the COVID-19 pathway through a set of glycoproteins derived from the immune system’s dual mitochondrial and endosomal compartments. In plain language, this means he knows that sugar metabolism is chemically related to breaking down the virus, and a potential cure may be a substance close to insulin. He will discuss this in further detail, along with other issues surrounding COVID-19.
In addition, he will discuss his impressive research surrounding the additional issues regarding breast cancer which includes its causes and possible ways to deal with it.

Milwaukee, WI - Dr. Victoria J. Mondloch is a practicing physician with 35 years of experience specializing in Women’s Health, Family Medicine, and Preventive Health & Wellness. Her innovative practice format allows patients to partner in their own healthcare and she has a mission to empower patients with an understanding of how to work together on medical diagnoses – and by educating them on the best steps to keeping them healthy. Often, the root of it lies in hormone balancing and she has become a subject matter expert on that approach. Dr. Mondloch has written about this in two books for women at different life stages and also teaches current/future doctors her approach in professional seminars. She is known as a doctor with a classic, highly devoted approach that is rare to find in contemporary medicine.
“When I was a teen, there was a TV show called Marcus Welby MD. He was known as The Doctor People Want to See. There is also that famous picture of a doctor by Norman Rockwell, who reflected a more humble, kind, and gentle culture. In it, the doctor is checking a little girl’s doll with his stethoscope, his black travel bag at his feet. We wonder what happened to such doctors. But I know it is the kind of doctor I want to be known as.”
Dr. Vickie, as patients affectionately call her, believes there is a giant disconnect between what a patient’s perception of good healthcare is and what the medical field has created today. People want to be heard, they want to take time on their visits, they want to have their questions heard and answered.
She will go to any length to preserve patient’s health and dignity.

Napa, CA - Just what does it mean to be an expert witness? It means you have intimate knowledge and specific skills that enable you to say what happened at a scene even when you weren’t physically on the scene. For competitive motorcycle driver Jayson Uribe, that intimate knowledge is of cars, bikes, vehicle mechanics and electrical systems, all of which enable him to analyze and reconstruct accidents and vehicular occurrences on public roads. His skills also come from years of professional riding/driving and advanced studies in Electrical Engineering.
Jayson’s quest to investigate and understand accidents began when a good friend of his faced jail time for a vehicular issue. Jayson felt the right tools and knowledge might have helped to clear his friend and vowed to make a difference in the future. It led to a new career path for him and the formation of his blossoming Code 3 Consulting practice (Code 3 is a term Jayson took from firefighting, where it is used to indicate the severity of an occurrence.)
Jayson is now an expert witness and accident investigator who specializes in vehicular analysis of car, truck and motorcycle-related incidents—who carefully determines the probable cause of them and helps clients uncover the truth in court cases.
When Jayson was just three years old he attended his first racing event at a local track and was determined to enter the motor sports field one day. That same spirit of determination led him to pursue firefighting and an advanced education in electronics. It also led him to launch this consultancy, and Jayson wants all people to embrace that positive stick to your dreams kind of mindset.

Plymouth, MN – Rosie Ward is a highly regarded Leadership coach, consultant, Keynote Speaker, podcast host, CEO of Salveo Partners LLC and author of Rehumanizing the Workplace and How to Build a Thriving Culture at Work.
Through her coaching and consulting work, Rosie has helped thousands of leaders and teams become more effective by learning how to navigate the messiness of being human in this never-ending disruptive world. It all boils down to our mindset, she says, and shifting from one of scarcity and self-protection to one of openness, curiosity and impact. It requires getting out of our comfort zone to do the important work to “upgrade” our mindset to support the skills people are trying to hone.
Rosie’s coaching work involves helping her clients identify the influence of how our childhoods shape our adult years.
“I have been fortunate to have had in-depth training with many gurus who understand adult development, including Bob Kegan and Lisa Lahey from Harvard and Brené Brown; I’m blessed to have tools in my consulting and coaching toolbox to help people, teams, and organizations get out of their own way and show up more courageously in their lives. “
She also points out how critical it is to have an inclusive workplace where people belong to support people’s psychological wellbeing. Yet so many of our leaders are not equipped, she emphasizes, to deal with ongoing stress from this constant stream of crises, and what we used to do just a few years ago isn’t working today.

Milwaukee, WI - Dr. Victoria J. Mondloch is a practicing physician with 35 years of experience specializing in Women’s Health, Family Medicine, and Preventive Health & Wellness. Her innovative practice format allows patients to partner in their own healthcare and she has a mission to empower patients with an understanding of how to work together on medical diagnoses – and by educating them on the best steps to keeping them healthy.

There is also that famous picture of a doctor by Norman Rockwell, who reflected a more humble, kind, and gentle culture. In it, the doctor is checking a little girl’s doll with his stethoscope, his black travel bag at his feet. We wonder what happened to such doctors. But I know it is the kind of doctor I want to be known as.”
Dr. Vickie, as patients affectionately call her, believes there is a giant disconnect between what a patient’s perception of good healthcare is and what the medical field has created today.

Napa, CA - Just what does it mean to be an expert witness? It means you have intimate knowledge and specific skills that enable you to say what happened at a scene even when you weren’t physically on the scene. For competitive motorcycle driver Jayson Uribe, that intimate knowledge is of cars, bikes, vehicle mechanics and electrical systems, all of which enable him to analyze and reconstruct accidents and vehicular occurrences on public roads. His skills also come from years of professional riding/driving and advanced studies in Electrical Engineering.
Jayson’s quest to investigate and understand accidents began when a good friend of his faced jail time for a vehicular issue. Jayson felt the right tools and knowledge might have helped to clear his friend and vowed to make a difference in the future. It led to a new career path for him and the formation of his blossoming Code 3 Consulting practice (Code 3 is a term Jayson took from firefighting, where it is used to indicate the severity of an occurrence.)
Jayson is now an expert witness and accident investigator who specializes in vehicular analysis of car, truck and motorcycle-related incidents—who carefully determines the probable cause of them and helps clients uncover the truth in court cases.
When Jayson was just three years old he attended his first racing event at a local track and was determined to enter the motor sports field one day. That same spirit of determination led him to pursue firefighting and an advanced education in electronics. It also led him to launch this consultancy, and Jayson wants all people to embrace that positive stick to your dreams kind of mindset.

CHARLOTTE, NC - Toni Curtis is a seasoned and certified birth doula and childbirth educator, but what is even more significant than her credentials, is her history of accomplishments in this segment of maternal healthcare, and her groundbreaking work in bridging the gap of racial and socioeconomic disparities in the maternal healthcare system. Toni has been a practicing birth worker for nearly 25 years, attended over 400 births, and is known for providing extraordinary, memorable and personalized care to every mother, baby and family she’s served.
Doulas also form a bond with the mother and family that begins with the decision to have a child, and then lasts for years after a successful birth. It is a long-term plan of care that takes many factors into account—from the home environment to the mother’s learning style, and also the mother’s physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health.
The doula and mother explore many key life areas together and formulate answers to important questions. This usually entails a longer consultative session than most doctors will allot time for. The doula/childbirth educator also discusses the vital importance of diet and nutrition, local support resources, and other variables that can affect pregnancy, birth and afterwards, from lactation and postpartum recovery to medical conditions that may arise as a result of labor and delivery.
“Pregnancy is the beginning of change. This new life changes everything -- your home situation, your physical body, and your brain chemistry. Everything you do and feel going forward is going to be a new experience. We talk about this process – thoroughly, candidly and truthfully.”

Buffalo, NY – Stephen Eoannou is a short story author and novelist that derives his inspiration from the history and landmarks in Buffalo, NY. Eoannou is announcing his upcoming novel Yesteryear, which will be released this October. According to Eoannou, “Yesteryear is a fictional imagining of how Fran Striker came up with the idea for The Lone Ranger, and why he sold the rights for ten dollars.”
“Not many know about him because when Striker sold the rights, he kept writing for the show,” explains Eoannou.
Fran Striker received recognition from Buffalo for his work. On Washington Street, by the Central Library, also known as ‘Lit City’, is a banner recognizing Striker, along with many other Buffalo-connected writers. Striker’s banner is by The Brisbane Building, where Woolworth’s was once located and where Striker worked before becoming a writer.
The Lone Ranger celebrates its 90th anniversary this year.

Silver Spring, MD – Cecilia Sepp, Principal and Founder of Rogue Tulips Consulting, is an experienced and sought after non-profit management consultant, a leader in her profession of nonprofit management, and an advocate for professional development for nonprofit professionals. In addition to her work with clients and developing education for nonprofit professionals, Cecilia is the host of her own podcast "Radio Free 501c” where guests discuss current trends and themes affecting the non-profit sector today.
The term “non-profit” means that all income is put back into the organization, as opposed to a for-profit that might pay out dividends. A benefit for non-profits is that they are exempt from federal income tax which allows them to keep more resources to support their mission. Another major differentiator for non-profits is that they are required to have a Board of Directors while for-profits have options for incorporation. This is why Cecilia is an advocate for consistent and in-depth board training and education. Well-educated and thoughtful board members are essential for the success of non-profits.
She notes that for the non-profit community to move into the future, they cannot wish for the old pre-pandemic days. Non-profit organizations need to fundamentally rethink strategies and position themselves to handle change with agility and resilience. For Cecilia, the coming year ahead looks extremely bright and promising. With more speaking gigs lined up, a full course catalog for 2023, plans to write a book, and plans to further her own education, the sky’s the limit.

Touted by Vito as a “one stop shop,” they handle all types of investigations from criminal defense, fraud cases, divorce, bankruptcy and many others. Additional services include complex litigation support, subject experts, cyber and digital forensics, paralegal services as well as prison and inmate advocacy services. While they work with attorneys and other legal staff, they are NOT a law firm, nor do they offer legal advice.
“Because what I do is so diverse, I enjoy it,” asserts Vito. “Every case is different. Every client is different. My goal is to give them the best defense possible. Sometimes, it’s better to instruct the client to plead guilty.”
For thirty-one years, Vito worked for the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) in a variety of assignments, many of which were undercover operations and then transitioned to senior DOJ management at the highest level.
“I worked in Miami for ten years during the Miami Vice Era,” explains Vito. “I worked mainly undercover. They placed me in an undercover airplane business. I drove the Mercedes – the hair in the wind, meeting the high-level Colombian drug traffickers.”
“If you are ever confronted with a situation where you would need private investigation, reach out to The MPM Group,” concludes Vito. “Some situations aren’t as dire as they seem. Seek out a good attorney and contact the MPM Group and we will provide the best defense possible. Don’t lose hope!”

NEW YORK, NY - Emmanuel Joseph Ajala is a biomedical researcher and principal investigator on a relentless quest to resolve some of the scariest diseases of our times. Some of these quests began when a person near and dear to him was stricken by a particular disorder and he wanted to get to its root cause, such as Frontal Temporal Dementia and Breast Cancer.
Emmanuel was born in Nigeria and came to the US to attend university as his studies advanced. He has a BS in Chemistry and an MS in Chemistry and is a candidate for his PhD. He was also invited, in the middle of his studies, to attend Medical School (Podiatry) and has worked as a professor, surgical technician and research scientist. He is a member of the American Association for the Advancement of Chemistry the American Chemical Society, and the New York Medical Association, and was featured in multiple Who’s Who editions. He has many more years of experience than other researchers; scientific expertise that enabled him to get to where he is today.
He is certainly a scientist in eminent standing, and while employed full time in the daytime, it is the night-time work in his own private company that has the most significance.
One study that Emmanuel Ajala is heavily involved in, is silencing the COVID-19 pathway through a set of glycoproteins derived from the immune system’s dual mitochondrial and endosomal compartments. In plain language, this means he knows that sugar metabolism is chemically related to breaking down the virus, and a potential cure may be a substance close to insulin.
“The people on the right, left, east and west all need to get together, to share discoveries and work on the cure.”

Overland Park, KS – Gayle Faulkner is an artist that paints with acrylics. The type of paintings that she does is known as textual impressionism. What is most unique about her work is that she mostly uses a pallet knife, as opposed to a paintbrush.

Impressionism is defined by Gayle in the following way. “When an artist is immersed in the creative process, their connection to the subject comes through,” defines Gayle. “The impressionist artist lets their passion create in the moment application of paint with light and shadow as well as layers of color.

Northampton, MA – Zan Ottaway is an animal communicator that works internationally. Having done so since 2013, she communicates primarily with cats, and dogs. Not only does she communicate with living animals, but also with those animals that are with us in spirit: those animals that have already passed on.
Zan describes what she does as “mental telepathy with animals but mixed with rational behaviorism, that’s grounded in a meditative state. I use the behaviorism and mental telepathy to bring this all together.”
There are many purposes that an owner will seek out Zan for her services. For instance, if an owner has ruled out various sicknesses with a vet, and the animal still isn’t feeling well. Also, if the owner suspects that the area of concern is behavioral such as animals not getting along, attacking other animals and people, or “doing their business” in places other than a litter box or outside. She sometimes will consult a terminally ill animal regarding the issue of putting it to sleep. One of the most unique services that she provides is to help find lost animals.
In addition to cats and dogs, she has communicated with other animals.
Very passionate about sharing her abilities, she offers a sliding scale fee and encourages people to only pay if they are happy with the service. She also enjoys performing her animal communication service with rescue animals. In addition, the proceeds earned from this service are donated to the Dakin Humane Society. Also as a musician, she has written an performed a few songs about her career as an animal communicator, as well as for the purpose of raising money for the Dakin Humane Society.

WAUKESHA, WI - Victoria J. Mondloch is a doctor who has both experience and credentials as an Internist and OB/GYN. Throughout her years of practice, she has watched her chosen discipline evolve and nearly implode, as the values and delivery models of “Western Medicine” and traditional healthcare shifted. Her desire to be a doctor, uphold her oath, and heal people never wavered though. So, Dr. Mondloch, or Dr. Vicki as many patients call her, has moved away from the larger health systems and group practices, and on to a more independent and wellness-oriented style of practice.
Wellness means different things to different people, she notes, and her version of wellness medicine is not always what a patient might expect. For this novel doctor, wellness is switching from chemical and pharmaceutical solutions to symptoms and diseases to the more natural ones. Sometimes, conventional medicine needs to be added back in, and then it becomes more like blended medicine, but still, with the best of intentions – getting more answers and helping the patients to feel and function better.
In her upcoming radio shows, Dr. Mondloch is going to talk about what a patient can expect from a wellness doctor, and what they should be getting as part of their annual exam.
Dr. Mondloch notes that many doctors work on an actuarial based model, ordering this or that test when people present with certain symptoms, but that may not always get to the heart of what’s wrong. People should always come before profits, and doing real discovery is more important.

For example, many wonder if this is the right time to make a career move. Working with senior leaders in transition, Dr. Maddalena, a highly sought-after Executive Coach states: “Leaders in transition will always continue to move forward in their careers, even in this confusing work environment. Some may seek to take on greater authority in their current firm or expand their skill set by accepting different challenging work, perhaps in a different company or field.”

Asheville, NC – Faith Laux is a highly sought after sex, love, and relationship coach who has helped women, men and couples find their sexual aliveness and satisfaction.
“My role as your coach is to help you connect to your deeper desires. Once you have clarity on what it is you truly want, I support you to create sustainable transformation to reach your goals. I help my clients overcome a variety of sexual issues at a pace that works for their nervous system so that lasting change can occur. Many people who come to me do so for a multitude of reasons. Most of us are struggling with internalized shame when it comes to our bodies and sexuality. If we learned that sex was dirty or bad, that has an impact on our ability to enjoy and feel safe in our sexuality. That’s where I come in. In our sessions together we tap into the wisdom of your body to create a deeper sense of confidence, acceptance and ease.”
The truth is, sex is incredibly healthy for us. Good sex releases endorphins that not only counteract stress but make us feel a deep sense of contentment.
One of Faith’s specialties is supporting women who are ready to redefine sexual intimacy with their partner after having a baby. So much changes after having children. She loves supporting moms to prioritize themselves and to love and feel pleasure in their bodies.
“Our sexuality can be so much richer than we ever imagined. It is a sacred connection with our bodies and a gateway to incredible pleasure and surrender. It has a profound effect on our overall well-being. Great sex is a fuel that can sustain us through the challenges that life throws our way. It is a gift that connects us to our power, aliveness and our most potent essence.”

Sooke, BC – Terry Andersen is a controlled remote viewer who integrates this unique modality into many types of more specialized services such as medical and spiritual intuition, as well as business, life insights, and coaching.
According to the International Remote Viewing Association (IRVA) Controlled Remote Viewing is defined as “a novel perceptual discipline for gaining information not available to the ordinary physical senses.” Terry defines it as an “evolution of consciousness” where she sees into the past, present, and future.
“When I do a session, my consciousness is in a different state,” explains Terry. “In my training, we’re taught to be in a different state of mind, not in our ego. “We’re taught to just get information and not judge it, but to just report it. I share all details with each person and don’t edit anything out.”
One of her most widely utilized specialties is the medical application of controlled remote viewing, where through this modality, she can identify an illness in others, often before they realize it themselves. She is also able to determine if an individual (or someone they know) already had a medical event.
In addition, she also offers general controlled remote viewing services for any field, spiritual mediumship, coaching, teaching and public demonstrations.

She published a Mindfulness Journal for Mental Health in February of 2022 which offers a range of practices readers can try as they experiment with mindfulness. So many people deal with anxiety and yet don’t access the benefits of mindfulness and her book was an effort to make mindfulness less daunting. There continues to be confusion around what mindfulness and meditation are and how to incorporate a regular practice into daily life. This is where Elizabeth comes in. She is committed to helping others learn about and experience the wide range of benefits which include positive changes in both physical and mental health.
Elizabeth is excited to offer a new group program that not only teaches women to meditate but walks them through the process of establishing a regular practice. Her course provides the support and encouragement required for real results.
“I wholeheartedly encourage women to sign up for my program because it can be extremely challenging to incorporate these techniques without professional guidance.”
Her unique, not to be missed, eight-week program, offered via ZOOM, is designed to help participants learn, understand, and practice in a warm and caring environment.

Corpus Christi, TX – June Warren is an excellent highly sought after health coach and founder of June Natural Wellness.
As a passionate Health Coach June partners with us in setting goals to encourage the development of sustainable healthy behaviors holding us accountable so we stay focused and determined to maintain our health for the long term.
She says our lifestyle factors will help improve our gut microbiome because when it is out of whack that leads to chronic constipation, digestive issues, and excessive bloating. Eating a high amount of fiber contributes to a healthy gut microbiome as well. Since each one of us have different body types and blood types, ideally we need to figure out what foods work best for us and June will be there for us every step of the way.
June has a program called Restore Your Gut Naturally and she is very excited to share it with us.
June emphasizes that even mental illness is coming from the health of your gut because our brain is connected to the gut. Healthy gut, Happy brain! Restoring your gut can boost your mood, increase focus and decrease stress. Our immune system lives in our gut and if we are feeding it sugar, excessive junk food canola oil, and fried foods the results will be catastrophic. In fact, statistics show that most people who suffer heart attacks have generally eaten high amounts of fried foods! Sugar builds up slowly but fried foods have an immediate effect.
She also suggests that we keep our bodies moving, movement is vital to our bodies. A body in motion stays in motion, a body at rest stays at rest. Our bodies were made for movement and several parts of our bodies rely on movement.

Yerington, NV – Patricia L. Blake is a retired police lieutenant and the author of Touched by the Hand of God in the City of Angels – SEND ME!
“There is a struggle between good and evil and that’s why angels on earth come in the form of first responders and their tremendous sacrifices putting their own safety on the line every day for us. Our first responders are unequivocally called by God to be our angels in our darkest moments of terror and fear they are here to protect, rescue, and comfort us.”
In Psalm 91, we are reminded that “God commands the angels to guard us in all our ways. With their hands, they shall support you, lest you strike your foot against a stone.”
Patricia, a former LAPD officer, is one such angel on earth bringing light, love, and healing to us all. She was inspired to write her book Touched by the Hand of God in the City of Angels – SEND ME!, to share her true-life account in law enforcement.
Her book was written to honor fellow officers “whose purpose is to fight evil.”
In one ne of her most heart wrenching chapters titled “The Baby Girl and the Monster,” Patricia also recounts the morally reprehensible acts of a father who physically and psychologically abuses his four-year-old daughter and when Patricia meets this beautiful child, she is in hospital bed connected to tubes. Seeing this sweet little girl in the last moments of her innocent young life, Patricia is forever changed by her and encouraged to go on fighting injustice.

Waukesha, WI - When Dr. Victoria Mondloch began her career as a physician, she was an OB/GYN with multiple credentials, but over the years her practice has evolved, and she now functions more like an Internist or General Practitioner—but still with an emphasis on women. Why? It had to do with her desire to work in partnership with patients towards their individual health goals. Sometimes that is still in the realm of OB/GYN diseases and treatment, but it is often another condition that will cause people to seek out her wisdom and expertise -- particularly in the workings of the female hormone system at stages, from puberty through menopause and after.
Patients applaud Doctor Vicki, as they fondly call her, for her ability to listen, look deeper, order specialized tests, and “hold their hand” as they find answers to their health matters. Beyond recognition from patients. Dr. Mondloch has been honored by professional associations, with a 4-star rating from US News and Word Reports, Best in Medicine honors from the American Health Council and Top Medical Director in 2021 and Top Women’s Health Physician in 2022 by International Assoc of Top Professionals. Dr. Mondloch has appeared on Close Up Radio before, including as part of their Women to Watch in America series. She also has her own Youtube channel, which is humorously named Hey Doc What’s Up?, a common greeting that she gets from her own patients.
Dr. Mondloch treats women and men in a way that involves them in their own decision making and treatment planning. Together, physician and patients explore the best steps to take towards their optimum health.

WILMINGTON, DE - Andre Lamar Henry has made a name for himself in several categories. First as an accountant, loan officer and savvy investment advisor. Then as a member of the For(bes) Culture Council and a nominee for their 30 Under 30 award. As the founder of his own business, and a NASDAQ Mentor, there is much more one could say about his professional journey, numerous accomplishment, but equally impressive is Andre's personal journey.
After a tragic roadway accident that took the life of his mother, at age 8, Andre became an orphan. Today he is a renowned financial genius and a millionaire.
“I was lonely, angry, and disruptive. I had no one I could talk to who could quite understand what I was going through. So, I pushed them all away.”
Eventually, Andre did break free, via a long reflective journey that led to peace, discovering his purpose, and writing his first book, From Orphan to Self-Made Millionaire. Andre says It was a therapeutic tool for his growth. This book talks about his pain points, how he released pent-up feelings, and got clear on his vision...
This February Andre will be on the radio talking about that comic series and the latest volume of it, due out later this year. Andre says he wrote them as comics, because it is any easy-to-read format for youth. The company and its books are called Dream Again, The Legacy, after Doctor Martin Luther King and his famous dream speech.
Andre’s comics are one of many tools he has for giving back to the community.

West Bloomfield, MI - Dr. Josefino Tunac is a disease expert and the chairman and president of Arterez
Diseases are the bane of our existence. Throughout history diseases have been the major killer of humans.
In the Medieval period, doctors thought the Bubonic plague was created by air and fumes produced by poor sanitation. Because of the ravages of smallpox, in desperation, Benjamin Jesty, a Scottish farmer in 1774 injected (vaccinated) a pus from a cow infected with cowpox to his family and found protection from smallpox. Vaccination was later championed by Edward Jenner and credited for the eradication of smallpox.
Just like Jesty with the smallpox, Alexander Fleming serendipitously discovered the antibiotic penicillin which was introduced in 1940 as the panacea for bacterial infection. Thereafter, smallpox and bacterial plagues were under control. The next challenge for modern society is effective treatment of chronic diseases like cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, and now Alzheimer’s. More recently (2020), the government enacted “Operation Warp Speed” (OWS) and identified the spike-protein component of COVID-19 as target for diagnostics and vaccines. Dr Tunac agrees with government’s effort to fund and solve problems, but what Dr Tunac does not agree is the platform of reducing the diseases into component parts or symptoms as treatment targets and ignoring the global nature of the disease.
Alternatively, Dr Tunac addresss the global etiology of diseases as target(s) for drug treatment, which he calls “Burglar Proofing”. This involves the design of a multicomponent drug to fortify or restore the innate (physical) and immunological defense system.

Greensboro, NC – Mary Ellen Hettinger is an evidential medium, Certified Angel Guide, psychic, and animal communicator at HeavenlyVisitors.com. An award-winning reporter and writer with 40 years as a professional communicator, Hettinger discovered her communication skills extended to the afterlife—i.e., she “talks to and sees dead people”--only eight years ago.
As a medium, Hettinger acts as a bridge between the spiritual world and the physical world. Her heartfelt, evidence-based messages of hope can help bring comfort and closure to those grieving the loss of loved ones.
Another fascinating aspect to her mediumship is that currently all consultations are by phone—yet she can connect with people around the globe.
“As an animal communicator, I ‘speak’ with animals telepathically, both living and those who have crossed over, so I can convey their thoughts, feelings, and emotions. When I communicate with pets this can help create positive changes in their behavior, or I can discover what is bothering them. This helps us form an even stronger bond with our animal companions who have so much to teach us.”
“More people are interested in learning about topics such as mediumship, accessing their intuition, interpreting dreams, raising their ‘frequency’ and what that means, etc.,” notes Hettinger.
“All of these things are, I believe, part of a transformation where we are becoming aware of a ‘collective consciousness.’ That is, we are all connected.
”When I provide my clients with messages from their loved ones, they get closure and comfort.” Hettinger says.

Fallbrook, CA – Heart disease, cancer, strokes, and diabetes are just a few of the devastating illnesses that send millions of people to the hospital every year. However, traditional treatment options, such as surgery or harmful drugs, often only mask the symptoms and fail to address the root causes of the disease. Recognizing the shortcomings of the current healthcare system, which prioritizes profit over patient well-being, Board Certified Nurse Coach, Founder and CEO of Bondaventure Wellness & Coaching, Luanne Bond, set out to create a different approach.
Drawing from her 27 years of experience as a nurse, Luanne saw firsthand how patients were suffering and how traditional treatment methods were not effective. She observed that hospitals lacked a focus on preventive care and often left patients feeling isolated and alone. Additionally, she experienced severe burnout in her role as a nurse. As a result, Luanne decided to become a Nurse Coach, with the goal of helping people avoid devastating illnesses and the need for hospitalization.
As a Nurse Coach, Luanne guides clients to make healthy lifestyle changes and achieve total wellness in every aspect of their lives. She emphasizes the importance of a holistic lifestyle, including eating nutritious foods, and recognizes that the Standard American Diet has been a major contributor to poor health for decades.
She also offers wellness retreats at her avocado and vineyard farm property located in Fallbrook, CA where attendees can experience deep connections with other like-minded individuals and learn how to live their best lives.

Waukesha, WI - When Dr. Victoria Mondloch began her career as a physician, she was an OB/GYN with multiple credentials, but over the years her practice has evolved, and she now functions more like an Internist or General Practitioner—but still with an emphasis on women. Why? It had to do with her desire to work in partnership with patients towards their individual health goals. Sometimes that is still in the realm of OB/GYN diseases and treatment, but it is often another condition that will cause people to seek out her wisdom and expertise -- particularly in the workings of the female hormone system at stages, from puberty through menopause and after.
Patients applaud Doctor Vicki, as they fondly call her, for her ability to listen, look deeper, order specialized tests, and “hold their hand” as they find answers to their health matters. Beyond recognition from patients. Dr. Mondloch has been honored by professional associations, with a 4-star rating from US News and Word Reports, Best in Medicine honors from the American Health Council and Top Medical Director in 2021 and Top Women’s Health Physician in 2022 by International Assoc of Top Professionals. Dr. Mondloch has appeared on Close Up Radio before, including as part of their Women to Watch in America series. She also has her own Youtube channel, which is humorously named Hey Doc What’s Up?, a common greeting that she gets from her own patients.
Dr. Mondloch treats women and men in a way that involves them in their own decision making and treatment planning. Together, physician and patients explore the best steps to take towards their optimum health.

WAUKESHA, WI - When it comes to their health and well-being, people have different relationships with health providers. Sometimes they passively listen to a doctor or other skilled practitioner.

Penelope is also the author of Animal Talk: Interspecies Telepathic Communication, and When Animals Speak: Techniques for Bonding with Animal Companions, and Animals in Spirit: Our Faithful Companions Transition to the Afterlife.
“My work as animal communicator is about communicating with animals telepathically, both living and those who have crossed over, so I can convey their thoughts, feelings, and emotions to their people to bring more understanding and resolve problems. This two-way communication creates positive changes in animal behavior and an even stronger more loving connection and understanding between you and your animal friends. Animals generally do not lose awareness of their spiritual nature as humans often do. With their innate wisdom, they have so much to teach us."
Although she is officially retired from practicing animal communication as a profession, she continues to help others learn and she accomplishes this through her amazing blog, books, audio recordings, and videos.
“Although many animals have been traumatized from abusive situations and need time to heal, unlike humans they don’t dwell on the past. They will say ‘that happened but now I’m here with you, so let's go for a walk and have fun.’ They're comical, joyful, and keep us energized.”

Calgary, AB – Avery Thatcher is a top notch highly sought-after burnout coach and the Founder of Becoming Avery.
“I help highly sensitive, high achievers recover from burnout and restructure, streamline, and optimize their habits. Through my unique coaching framework and proven techniques, I guide them on how to consistently maintain their energy and focus and set healthy boundaries so they can finally have the impact they have been aspiring for, but without being overly stressed and in survival mode. I show you the tools to find balance and true happiness that is life long and sustainable.”
Avery’s work is rooted in an understanding that physical and emotional health is everything. Her role is not to tell you what to do, but to help you tap into your own inner resources by showing you how to unlock your potential. She offers us the tools to combat self-defeating thoughts and restore balance in our mind, body, and spirit.
Avery developed a unique, amazing 4 Step program called the Flow State Framework that shows high achievers how to work with our current energy levels, rather than against them, and unlock the cycle of burnout. She says that no matter what the cause of our burnout is, this 12 to 16 week program is highly effective and life changing. It encourages the body’s self-healing mechanisms to get long-term relief, unlike masking disease with pills that don’t actually eradicate our issues.
“Always do our best doesn’t always mean always being perfect. In fact, perfection doesn’t exist and once you realize that you will be on a path to a happier healthier you. I am here to support you in your journey to live your very best life.”

WAUKESHA, WI - When it comes to their health and well-being, people have different relationships with health providers. Sometimes they passively listen to a doctor or other skilled practitioner. Sometimes they do research, take an active role, and even seek a specialist’s advice. Sadly, there are times when people have complaints that might be dismissed by the doctor, or labelled unresolvable, and the relationship ends. The best results though, can be achieved from a partnership—when patients who are knowledgeable and inquisitive, and want to explore treatment options work with a doctor who takes a highly personalized approach. Dr. Victoria J. Mondloch, a long-time provider of OBGYN and Internal Medicine care in the Midwest, is that kind of foresighted and committed doctor.
“As a teaching doctor, I have a sense of duty to empower people with knowledge. So, you will understand what is going on inside your body to a greater extent. And become an excellent steward of your own health. And so that you can navigate the medical system more easily and successfully for the rest of your healthy life.”
Dr. Mondloch describes herself as a wellness physician, someone who works to keep people out of hospitals, away from costly medical office visits, and off of the common medications that can have scary side effects. She accomplishes her goals with promising options that have included bioidentical hormones and exosomes (the name for the new protein serum and a more portable generation of stem cell therapy.) And she also taps into a rare and deep level of concern for each individual and their health complaints.

Malvern, Worcester, United Kingdom – Julie Angel is an International highly sought-after Psychic Medium. Julie is also a real-life psychic detective who also finds missing people, pets and objects. Her national and global predictions can be found on her new page on this website "Global predictions".
“As a professional psychic, I shed light on some of your most pressing questions. As a Medium I will help you communicate with your loved ones who have passed on; this brings peace and solace to grief-stricken hearts and souls.”
Julie says that as a psychic and medium they are sharply distinct from one another. Psychics tune into the energy of people and places. They sense elements of their past, present and future through their psychic ability. On the other hand, a Medium will help communicate with our loved ones who have passed on. As a clairvoyant medium, she sees pictures in her minds’ eye and around her client’s aura that relay messages.
Although Julie Angel does in fact bring much needed healing to many of her clients she strongly emphasizes that she is not a grief counselor or psychologist. Her role is to bring insight and clarity into what is likely to happen given someone’s current circumstances and she is the catalyst for what Spirit divulges to her.
“No matter what our past holds we can live in gratitude and consciously create an abundant life. I am dedicated to giving you a reading to the best of my ability so you can make better life choices and live every day grateful for your life and looking forward to the next chapter ahead.”

Fountain Valley, CA – Carol Cole is an experienced Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in trauma, anxiety, depression, and addiction.
“As a certified EMDR therapist, I take a holistic approach to healing, sometimes using EMDR, a fabulous, effective intervention which uses the brain’s natural process of healing with extraordinary results. It desensitizes past traumatic memories without triggering any fight, flight, or freeze responses helping ur tio store those experiences as just another memory.”
EMDR are initials for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, an intervention that uses bilateral stimulation or right/left movement of the eyes (or right/left tapping), similar to what happens during REM sleep. This releases emotional experiences that have been “trapped” in the body and frees our neurophysiological system of any blockages. It’s like a magic wand freeing you from emotional baggage!
A child of alcoholic parents, Dr. Carol had a tough upbringing. However, by relying on her intuition and resiliency she got through her childhood to seek a better life. She taught school for a few years, met and married her Eternal Sweetheart, then returned to grad school for a second Bachelor’s, second Master’s and a Doctorate in Psychology. She feels it’s the best thing she’s ever done.
Today, she works with people in all types of relationships and has helped hundreds of individuals to find long term healing.
“Not only is EMDR therapy effective, but it doesn’t have to involve pills or medication. With EMDR therapy you get to the root of your problems and truly become whole again.”

New York, NY – Donna McGrath is a former NIH Molecular Biologist, highly sought-after Master Energy Healer and Intuitive Medium and author of From Corporate Mentality to Spiritual Reality, A True Out-of-Body Journey to Enlightenment, who has worked with over 60,000 clients since her 1994 transformation.
She says, “Our thoughts, words, emotions and surrounding environment (epigenetics) absolutely affect our health. What people do not realize is that disease is actually formed from the outside in. Therefore, negative thoughts, words and patterns, spiral around and around. Finally, when repeated long enough, negative patterns eventually cause dis-ease, or an un-easeful state in the body.
In my 1994 experience, I was gifted with the knowledge of which emotion effects which body part. With my energy work, I then intuitively identify, target and remove the specific core emotional traumas from the past that originally caused the problem. When this is done, the good news is that miraculous results often occur!
Through my Healing Your Feelings, Change your Life workshops, Conscious Communication workshops and Quantum Manifestation workshops, I teach how to transform your pent up emotions from a negative to a positive state and how to communicate and manifest miracles into your life. The result of the work helps people of all walks of life to find a life of health, abundance, love, peace and joy.”
“The idea is for us to live on this earth in peace and love so we are literally in control of our emotions and for all of us, collectively, to be interacting with each other compassionately, lovingly, creating earth as it is in heaven, literally.”

Mount Prospect, IL – Tim Wolfe is a Certified Tax Coach (CTC), Certified Public Accountant (CPA), tax planner, and author of Fight Back: Successful Income Tax-Savings Tips and Strategies to Keep More of Your Own Money, which is available on Amazon, and is complete with strategies on how to use the tax code as a tool to significantly reduce income taxes.
“A tax strategist is literally the opposite of a tax preparer. The tax preparer helps you file a tax return based on last year’s transaction that is now set in stone. However, the tax strategist looks at your future transactions and advises you on how to modify or recast transactions, that enables a taxpayer to substantially reduce taxes. You may only see your tax preparer once a year. However, a tax strategist will become a trusted adviser you can rely on through the years to work with you to achieve your financial goals.
Tim explains that there really is no cost to use his services, only a risk-free investment from which you will receive a great return. How can it be free of risk? Because if there are no tax savings, there is no investment. And the investment is based only on first year tax savings even though there will be similar tax savings every year, unless circumstances change.
Tim also encourages taxpayers to become business owners, including those side gigs, to turn personal expenses into tax deductions like business related mileage and home office expenses. Employees on the other hand with W2s are limited to what they can use as tax deductions.
“I very much care about you. Please contact me so I can make sure you are not paying more tax than you are required to.”

Once we start to lose those old patterns, we have an opportunity to live more fully, unapologetically, to be more conscious, and consequently to achieve more of what we want in life.
Andrea says we can achieve this through our own life experiences and opportunities that help us grow because you “can’t heal till you learn to feel.”
“My coaching focuses on the connection between mindset work and body awareness. I help you reframe your thinking and develop a more empowering outlook on life. I inspire my clients to live as aligned to their soul as possible. When we do this our lives will become more joyful, vibrant, and profoundly empowered, with a more cohesive link between mind, body, and soul.”
Andrea teaches us to never be afraid to chase our dreams and to create a better way of thinking. To embody what we wish to see in the world and live fearlessly. By connecting with our spirit, living by our core values, and projecting positivity we can live meaningful lives that we love.

Murrells Inlet, SC - Betty Houbion is a human sex trafficking educator, advocate, and one of the most influential voices in raising awareness.
As Betty continues to be one of the strongest advocates against trafficking, she is excited to discuss how technology is advancing our fight to stop it one day for good. To combat the horrors of human trafficking, law enforcement can benefit from the latest technologies to aid them in catching these evasive predators, she says. That’s because human trafficking is prevalent in places we would never suspect, from affluent communities to impoverished ones, in rural areas to large cities. To shut down this insidious widespread modern slavery, police need to gather evidence
Once unequipped to gather hard evidence against perpetrators now thanks to the capacity of big data analytics, law enforcement have become armed with new tools to build criminal cases
One such tool used by Law enforcement agencies is the use of data visualization technologies that provides real-time views of locations, are able to gather fact based, clear-cut evidence, greatly increasing the likelihood of solving crimes more rapidly.
Furthermore, law enforcement agencies should be turning to more fact-based, hard evidence to create compelling cases and increase the chances of conviction once perpetrators have been caught.
Another way is through the use of Air tags, a tracking device developed by Apple, designed to help people find personal objects.
As more technology emerges there is hope for us to one day put an end to criminal activity and help us live in a safer and peaceful world.

Mount Prospect, IL – Tim Wolfe is a Certified Tax Coach (CTC), Certified Public Accountant (CPA), tax planner, and author of Fight Back: Successful Income Tax-Savings Tips and Strategies to Keep More of Your Own Money, which is available on Amazon, and is complete with strategies on how to use the tax code as a tool to significantly reduce income taxes.
“A tax strategist is literally the opposite of a tax preparer. The tax preparer helps you file a tax return based on last year’s transaction that is now set in stone. However, the tax strategist looks at your future transactions and advises you on how to modify or recast transactions, that enables a taxpayer to substantially reduce taxes. You may only see your tax preparer once a year. However, a tax strategist will become a trusted adviser you can rely on through the years to work with you to achieve your financial goals.
Tim explains that there really is no cost to use his services, only a risk-free investment from which you will receive a great return. How can it be free of risk? Because if there are no tax savings, there is no investment. And the investment is based only on first year tax savings even though there will be similar tax savings every year, unless circumstances change.
Tim also encourages taxpayers to become business owners, including those side gigs, to turn personal expenses into tax deductions like business related mileage and home office expenses. Employees on the other hand with W2s are limited to what they can use as tax deductions.
“I very much care about you. Please contact me so I can make sure you are not paying more tax than you are required to.”

New York, NY - COVID Long Haulers can find a new resource to learn how to turn their lives around, with the help of Sally Riggs, psychologist and polyvagal coach, and her new Facebook community group.
Sally Riggs is a psychologist and polyvagal coach who helps COVID Long Haulers—people suffering with Long COVID—understand how to navigate the different states of their nervous system and to improve vagal flexibility and tone. Once they can do that, long haulers can spend more time in a "rest and digest" state so that their body can start the healing process and ultimately enhance physical and mental health.
Long COVID—recognized as a physiological and vascular disease—is, in fact, associated with the nervous system, which mediates many of the symptoms experienced in the disease, such as chest pain, shortness of breath, increased heart rate, nausea, dizziness, etc.
Polyvagal Theory, initially put forward in 1994 by scientist Stephen Porges, focuses on a cranial nerve known as the vagus surrounding the parasympathetic nervous system. Polyvagal Theory offers implementing strategies and resources to help long haulers seek a healthy connection with their nervous system in order to enable us to respond more appropriately to stressful situations and trauma.
While she is not a physician and cannot give medical treatment, Sally plays a crucial role in two ways: First, in connecting people with the doctors who have significant knowledge about Long COVID. Second, in helping clients calm their nervous systems so that they can reduce overwhelm and make the next right decision.

The dental team handles the ins and outs of the business from accounting to hiring or firing, a well-trained staff is always one of the biggest components to an organization’s success.”
“In dental school, dentists are not taught the business side of dentistry that’s why they may incessantly struggle to efficiently run an office. In my experience, building a high-powered team requires strong leadership”
Pauline also emphasizes how fear of the dentist literally keeps people from getting their annual checkups and as a result can wreak havoc on their overall health. On the other hand, when patients feel, they are going to a well -run office, their anxiety greatly diminishes so it is a win win for everyone.
What makes Pauline’s coaching so effective is as an objective partner with inter relational holistic approach, she skillfully provides the much-needed mentoring and clarity that expertly takes her clients to the next level and empowers them to be the best version of themselves, both personally and professionally.
“I am passionate about being your support system so you can reach your highest potential and carry that out to everyone you meet.”

Warwick, NY – Every lawsuit has three components: The evidence (the case itself), the law, and the subject matter. Most people – including all lawyers – think that the most important element is the law. Most experts realize that what is far more important is a knowledge – hopefully a mastery – of the subject matter. This insight led Close-Up News Radio to launch a series about expert witnesses – aimed largely at an audience of attorneys. Among those experts we sought was Ned Einstein, with 47 years of experience in the public transportation field, 34 years spent mostly as an expert witness, with 700 cases and more than 300 magazine articles (among other publications) “under his belt.”
Mr. Einstein is unusual not only as an expert, but unusual for anyone in his field. He had the good fortune of spending time directing or participating in projects, at the highest levels, in every single ground transportation mode: Transit, paratransit, schoolbus, special education, motorcoach, non-emergency medical transportation, taxis, TNC’s, shuttles and passenger rail services. He also spent a full decade directing the operations of his own 70-vehicle door-to-door paratransit system. Even more uniquely, he directed the design and marketing efforts associated with a European-manufactured schoolbus and motorcoach. He has the unique ability to see every mode from every angle. He also has a mastery of the industry standards of care in every sector, and a mastery of key regulations at the Federal level, and a working knowledge of many at the State level.
Mr. Einstein hopes that his presentation will be highly-informative, and that every attorney, good, bad or excellent, will learn a lot.

New York, NY - COVID Long Haulers can find a new resource to learn how to turn their lives around, with the help of Sally Riggs, psychologist and polyvagal coach, and her new Facebook community group.
Sally Riggs is a psychologist and polyvagal coach who helps COVID Long Haulers—people suffering with Long COVID—understand how to navigate the different states of their nervous system and to improve vagal flexibility and tone. Once they can do that, long haulers can spend more time in a "rest and digest" state so that their body can start the healing process and ultimately enhance physical and mental health.
Long COVID—recognized as a physiological and vascular disease—is, in fact, associated with the nervous system, which mediates many of the symptoms experienced in the disease, such as chest pain, shortness of breath, increased heart rate, nausea, dizziness, etc.
Polyvagal Theory, initially put forward in 1994 by scientist Stephen Porges, focuses on a cranial nerve known as the vagus surrounding the parasympathetic nervous system. Polyvagal Theory offers implementing strategies and resources to help long haulers seek a healthy connection with their nervous system in order to enable us to respond more appropriately to stressful situations and trauma.
While she is not a physician and cannot give medical treatment, Sally plays a crucial role in two ways: First, in connecting people with the doctors who have significant knowledge about Long COVID. Second, in helping clients calm their nervous systems so that they can reduce overwhelm and make the next right decision.

WAUKESHA, WI - Dr. Victoria Mondloch has returned to Close Up Radio this fall to discuss her theories, case studies, and research into health and wellness solutions that can keep women more balanced, effective, healthy and youthful at every age and every hormonal stage. In the coming weeks she will be speaking on topics like Progesterone and its role in balancing women’s health and wellness, Postpartum Depression, and diseases of the female organs such as Endometriosis, Fibroids, Ovarian cysts and even Uterine, Ovarian and Breast Cancer. She will also talk about the gap in women’s health care and life expectancy, and how more preventive and specialized care bears on the statistics, particularly during the years she has been an OB/GYN.
She empowers patients so that they work together on diagnoses, care, and treatment. Often the key is hormone balancing. Since balancing, she looks much younger and is more vital than her true age would tell you. Dr. Mondloch wants to help other women take the same journey, so they can be highly functional, comfortable and valued throughout perimenopause and menopause. Dr. Mondloch discusses much of this in one of the two books she has written about hormones and women’s health, titled Full Bloom.
Beyond recognition from patients, Dr. Mondloch has received many professional accolades. She was 4-star rated by US News and World Reports and named Best in Medicine by the American Health Council, each honor for her for her achievements in the Women’s Health field.

Verona, WI - Andrea Andree is a top-notch Empowerment Coach and Energy Healer and owner of The Empowered Living Space.
“Through my coaching, I help you identify the thought patterns keeping you from creating your optimal life and becoming the most authentic version of yourself. As an energy healer, I guide you to releasing the painful emotions behind those thoughts that weigh you down. Done continuously, this allows you to move into a greater unity with your higher self.”
Andrea accomplishes all this not by encouraging us to ignore or block out our thoughts and feelings but by embracing the thought, releasing the emotion, and tapping into the energy that we wish to feel.
Once we start to lose those old patterns, we have an opportunity to live more fully, unapologetically, to be more conscious, and consequently to achieve more of what we want in life.
Andrea says we can achieve this through our own life experiences and opportunities that help us grow because you “can’t heal till you learn to feel.”
“My coaching focuses on the connection between mindset work and body awareness. I help you reframe your thinking and develop a more empowering outlook on life. I inspire my clients to live as aligned to their soul as possible. When we do this our lives will become more joyful, vibrant, and profoundly empowered, with a more cohesive link between mind, body, and soul.”
Andrea teaches us to never be afraid to chase our dreams and to create a better way of thinking. To embody what we wish to see in the world and live fearlessly. By connecting with our spirit, living by our core values, and projecting positivity we can live meaningful lives that we love.

Hackettstown, NJ – Lori Sweetman is a highly sought-after Life Coach, public speaker, and founder of LGBTQ Education and Consulting LLC.
“Through my coaching work I empower queer folks to live their lives genuinely and with self-acceptance wholeheartedly embracing all facets of themselves so they can live freely and fearlessly. Whether they are questioning their place in the LGBTQ spectrum, or need the encouragement to come out, I offer the tools, resources, and support so they can discover their strengths from within and literally feel so empowered, they find the courage to live unapologetically and seek fulfilling, meaningful lives.”
Unlike a counselor or therapist helping an individual suffering from mental illness or trauma, Lori’s unique coaching style utilizes positive psychology interventions to help us move from feeling “just ok but things just don’t feel quite right,” to excelling and living the lives we dream of. It’s a liberating life affirming process yet also challenging and tough. That’s why her coaching is about asking the right questions to help us dig deep and go at our own pace and comfort level.
She encourages us to surround ourselves with positivity and hope. Through our difficulties we find resilience and never let oppression weigh us down.
Currently, she is working on LGBTQ affirming support groups and group life coaching programs so queer communities can socialize and build a peer support system and help each other navigate their feelings of shame and internalized fear.

Canmore, AB – Lin Heidt is a Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner, a form of body centered therapy, a certified yoga teacher and founder of LinHeidt.com and Earth Fire Water Air (EFWA)
Somatic Experiencing (SE) ™ is an extremely valuable approach because it recognizes that our mind and bodies are connected and that distressing experiences are stored in our tissue on a cellular level and in areas of the brain. Stress and anxiety can cause irreparable harm to our immune and other bodily systems, but somatic therapy releases these stuck energies that have remained in our bodies for possibly long periods of time. The work of Somatic Experience (along with Polyvagal theory) integrates mind, body and soul brings us back into clarity and coherence.
This work allows the nervous system to release and discharge locked energy and to return to balance. By using any of the tools of SE, yoga, meditation, and breathing and relaxation exercises, your heart and soul will be gently nourished and restored and you will begin to finally live the life you absolutely love.”
In Lin’s sessions, we are guided to connect with our internal state, foster receptivity and deep listening, and to pay attention to people, places, and things that bring us joy, so we begin to radiate and love ourselves more fully and unconditionally.
Along with somatic experiencing, Lin practices and teaches meditation and yoga from the Hatha and Vinyasa traditions. She describes yoga as the process of self awareness and coherence of the body mind and soul, and emphasizes how yoga is not simply a physical practice of fancy poses.
Lin’s mission is to help us live the most authentic, joyful lives possible.

Lloydminster, SK - Bonnie Wirth is a highly regarded Empowerment Strategist, Emotional Resilience Expert, and Mentor.
“Genuinely happy people grow through their hurts and experiences, they look past the difficult times, and hold unwavering faith. No matter what happens, from the personal upheavals or to the disastrous events occurring in the world around us, keeping faith in our Higher Power will always keep us grounded, strong, and give us hope when we need it the most.”
Bonnie encourages us to not only engage in self-care and loving who we are but to extend this love right in our very own homes, at work, among our circle of friends. We can literally make the world a better place by being kind and empathetic.
Her work is centered on healing mind, body, and soul. When we are genuinely happy, we become a light, an inspiration to everyone around us.
“By turning to harmful ways of coping like alcohol, drugs, or other addictive behaviors, mistreating our selves or even striking out in violence or discriminating against others, we are not allowing for the positive change we want to see in the world. How can that happen when we are harming ourselves and others in the most detrimental and traumatic ways?”
Healing the world starts within each of us. We are all responsible for this. Once we start choosing to do our part, in big ways or small, we will experience more harmonious living and joy. Life will smile back at us and anything we dream of will absolutely become possible. Life moves in cycles and it’s not about resisting change but opening to it in the kindest and most compassionate ways. This is how we embrace our evolution. This is how we evolve.

Bellevue, WA – Fay Andersson is the founder and owner of Louie de Coton a successful, enterprising, top-notch business designing and manufacturing sustainable and stylish dog products focusing on health and wellness. Recently celebrating their 10th anniversary, she is a leader in the industry living her dream to the fullest and working tirelessly to educate us about the benefits of her company.
“Our products are individually made in Seattle, Washington because I am a firm believer in keeping jobs right here in the United States. We use highly technical materials with no harmful chemicals for the environment and our pups. Many of our components including tags, labels and packaging materials are even made here. Pet apparels and carry-on bags manufactured overseas don't meet the same standards as products made in the USA.”
Prior to starting her own business, Fay was in a deadly accident which led to few broken ribs. During her slow recovery, she got a Maltese named Louie de Coton. Fay purchased jackets for their long walks together. Hiring a talented seamstress, she designed a fashionable, warm, durable jackets and coats for Louie derived from the highest quality technical materials that are offered by top athletic brands.
Creating her own wearable dog products, Fay uses only natural, recycled or organic materials determined to protect them from toxic and harsh chemicals that are used in the manufacturing pet products.

Santa Monica, CA – Michelle King is an experienced registered Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in trauma, anxiety, and addiction, with a focus on EMDR therapy.
Developed by psychologist Francine Shapiro, EMDR, which stands for “Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing,” treats anything from trauma to addiction, anxiety, eating disorders, and panic attacks.
Describing EMDR as a brain-based therapy, Michelle explains how EMDR actually works. The brain has three parts: what we can call the “thinking brain,” the “feeling brain,” and the “primitive brain.” When a “regular” memory is processed, it is stored in the thinking brain, while traumatic memories are stored in the primitive brain, which is where the fight/flight/freeze response can get activated. In an EMDR session, Michelle facilitates bilateral stimulation, typically through eye movements, which reprocesses a traumatic memory and basically moves it from the primitive brain to the thinking brain. Afterwards, a person’s responses to trauma change, and the negative thoughts that have been causing them so much pain no longer have a strong emotional charge. They can become more at peace and once again, life can be good. Of course, every case is unique and results can vary, but EMDR therapy is scientifically proven to be very effective.
Michelle states that through the power of EMDR therapy you can change the way you see yourself and turn your negative thoughts and perceptions into healthy positive ones. She is honored to have gained the trust of her clients so they can share their most extreme vulnerabilities. Michelle is passionate about helping as many people as she can.

Murrells Inlet, SC - Betty Houbion is a human sex trafficking educator, advocate, and one of the most influential voices in raising awareness. Betty’s unwavering mission is making certain that one day we will eliminate the horrors of human trafficking and she will not stop until this has been accomplished. Thanks to Betty’s incredible perseverance South Carolina has become one of the highest-ranking human trafficking laws in the country. Although it took three years to get it passed, Betty managed to draft laws for South Carolina in 2012 when legislature passed the human trafficking laws unanimously into law, part of which South Carolina can seize all assets of that convicted trafficker, and if a business owner is convicted their money is confiscated and the business is closed down and liquidated. The State of South Caroline can seize all assets regardless of location.
The horrifying ways people are used in trafficking include forced labor, forced marriage, and sexual exploitation including prostitution. The poor and the most vulnerable are generally the most at risk and the most population that is preyed upon by traffickers.
In Betty’s eagerly anticipated 2-part radio series she will discuss the reality of human trafficking, her continued fight to continue to bring awareness that is both eye opening and truthful. Betty will go over books written and harrowing real life accounts that are disturbing, heart wrenching, and a triumph of human resilience and survival.

Murrells Inlet, SC - Betty Houbion is a human sex trafficking educator, advocate, and one of the most influential voices in raising awareness. Betty’s unwavering mission is making certain that one day we will eliminate the horrors of human trafficking and she will not stop until this has been accomplished. Thanks to Betty’s incredible perseverance South Carolina has become one of the highest-ranking human trafficking laws in the country. Although it took three years to get it passed, Betty managed to draft laws for South Carolina in 2012 when legislature passed the human trafficking laws unanimously into law, part of which South Carolina can seize all assets of that convicted trafficker, and if a business owner is convicted their money is confiscated and the business is closed down and liquidated. The State of South Caroline can seize all assets regardless of location.
The horrifying ways people are used in trafficking include forced labor, forced marriage, and sexual exploitation including prostitution. The poor and the most vulnerable are generally the most at risk and the most population that is preyed upon by traffickers.
In Betty’s eagerly anticipated 2-part radio series she will discuss the reality of human trafficking, her continued fight to continue to bring awareness that is both eye opening and truthful. Betty will go over books written and harrowing real life accounts that are disturbing, heart wrenching, and a triumph of human resilience and survival.

"The goal or vision you ultimately have for yourself, or your organization should sincerely be treasured. You should keep your ears open, and your eyes peeled to people that can add to it and make it flourish and come to fruition. Think of it as a seed planted in your heart. Some people you meet might add droplets while others might pour into it the nutrients it needs to grow and prosper. Regardless, we can never give up on that vision and that's the type of guidance I provide people and organizations.”

Hustontown, PA – Dr. Sharon Martin is a highly sought-after shamanic energy healer and allopathic physician. She is a rare physician who blends traditional Western medicine with shamanism.
“As an internal medicine physician trained at one of the most prestigious Ivy league medical schools, over the years I started to realize that regardless of how many medications people take, recovery came from a variety of healing practices. We can be fighting cancer and yet feel healed if we are aligned with our soul and feel right with the world. Through my years of practicing medicine, I have perceived the limits of today’s modern drugs and how people are not empowered over their own health and well -being. As humans, we all have access to a life force that exists outside of the realm of prescription medicine. And as physicians and healers if we can successfully help people tap into that, then the possibilities to heal are absolutely limitless.”
Doctor Martin practices traditional Internal Medicine in a rural clinic in South Central PA. She works with her shamanic and alternative medicine clients remotely, and she can be contacted by email at sharon@drsharonmartin.com.
Doctor Martin is the author of “Maximize Your Healing Power: Shamanic Techniques to Shift Your Health Challenges” to be published by Inner Traditions in May 2023. This book can be preordered on Amazon or Barnes and Noble.
She is also the host of two radio shows, hosted on the Transformation Talk Network, titled Maximum Medicine and Sacred Magic. These shows are streamed live on Facebook and details can be found on Doctor Martin’s website:.www.drsharonmartin.com

Sewaren, NJ – Connie Elek is a psychic medium, clairvoyant, empath, Reiki master, Tarot reader and angel power therapist.
Connie channels souls who have passed over to help clients find a sense of closure when a loved one has died.
“When I was a child, everyone just thought I had an active imagination,” recalls Connie. “I knew that I had abilities that other people didn't have. I knew what was going to happen before it happened.”
Today, Connie says it’s her soul's calling to help people who are in distress and in transition. Connie says she is almost always able to make contact with the deceased loved one to bring them messages of what actually happened.
The future can scary. If we don't have someone to talk to, it's difficult to take that first step toward the future. In assembling all these modalities, it's one thing to have the talent, but Connie has created structure around her abilities.
In addition to her work as a psychic medium, Connie also helps clients navigate transition in their lives, like marriage, separation, divorce, illness, death, loss of jobs, children leaving home. All are stress factors that people face every day. Some people cope better than others dealing with life's ever changing conditions.
“It's enabling people to find what is it that they love to do,” says Connie. “What are you passionate about? It doesn't matter, as long as you find joy in what it is that you're doing. For me, it's helping people.”
“I’m most proud of helping people find their passion and their joy. It's what gives me a great sense of accomplishment.”

Chicago, IL – Traci Hill of Conscious Evolution is a highly sought- after top-notch Subtle Energy Alchemist Coach
“My goal as a coach is to support women who are feeling stuck in life. So many women are living a dull existence but know there is something missing and want to feel fulfilled and alive with energy. I help them to uncover their true identity, so they can be in alignment with who they really are, cultivate new perspectives, and embrace authenticity. I help you dig deep and shift to a positive way of living through reprogramming beliefs so you acquire a better understanding of who you are and this mental and emotional clarity will set you on your path to wholeness so you achieve anything your heart desires.”
Prior to becoming a coach, in her teen years Traci was an all-around star athlete. After graduating from high school, she joined the army and soon afterwards began having medical issues. Then she was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. This prompted her to turn to holistic ways of healing. Today she takes zero medications and is living her best life.
Traci also has the rare gift of reading fingernails giving her astounding insight to automatically know our physical issues. For instance, as typical woman we get married, have kids, takes care of the household and then we forget who we are. This type of woman tends to be an over-giver. Overgivers are prone to diseases.
“Everyone should know the energy we put out to the universe is just as significant as the energy we get back from the world. If we wish to be happy, healthy, and abundant we must genuinely believe that we are.”

Los Angeles, CA – Luz Chacon is a highly sought-after Wellness Coach and EFT/Tapping Practitioner.
After becoming a Certified Health Coach through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition in 2013, Luz recognized that most of her clients who were struggling to stick to healthy eating were doing so because they had an ingrained pattern of escaping from their emotions with food.
With Luz’s practical, holistic approach she helps us create a new mindset around food so we can step into a lifestyle enriched with self-care, self-love, and tools to better manage stress and emotions. One of the most effective tools she uses to help us on our healing journey is Emotional Freedom Techniques, which involves tapping on the end points of “energy meridians”. While it may sound or look strange, EFT/Tapping is a scientifically-proven modality that lowers stress hormones and has been shown to help with cravings, weight loss, phobias, anxiety, emotional distress, pain, and more. Luz wholeheartedly incorporates Tapping into her work with amazing results.
Another part of her work entails offering workplace wellness services. She offers workshops and programs to help employees and companies prioritize self-care and well-being in order to reduce stress and burnout. The pandemic has significantly increased stress among employees in many sectors resulting in high turnover rates.
Luz reminds us that a health coach doesn’t tell you what to do; they guide you in the right direction and support you to get there. She is our cheerleader, our partner, and biggest advocate.

Mount Pleasant, SC - Alisa Turner is a highly sought-after Integrative Nutrition Coach and founder and owner of Alisa Turner Health.
Alisa notes, “My work is focused on helping people heal their relationship with food. Most clients who seek me out have intense and distorted emotional relationships to food, and they feel powerless over their food choices. Many are on a drug/alcohol addiction or eating disorder recovery journey. Some are nighttime emotional eaters, and others are trying to break an unhealthy familial relationship to food that has been passed down generationally.
Alisa’s work is rooted in an understanding that physical and emotional health is everything. Her role is not to tell you what to do, but to help you tap into your body’s intuitive healing ability by challenging you with some strategic incremental improvements and by being a voice of encouragement and validation. She offers tools to combat your critical, self-defeating thoughts and to restore you to balance in mind, body, and spirit. When we have inner peace, it’s much easier to make healthy food choices.
Alisa decided to pursue a career as a health coach from her own personal journey with eating disorders, addiction, and ending a toxic career.
Today, she is helping hundreds of clients heal old patterns in order to achieve their health goals and love life again by connecting the dots to figure out what negatively affects their health. Her evidence-based, strategic tracking system gives her a bird’s eye view of the biggest culprits, and it enables her to customize a plan to precisely tackle health concerns.

San Francisco, CA – Ellen Rothstein is a certified Life Transition Coach, an exhibiting artist, and a contributing author for She Is You, a supportive community helping women in their 40s, 50s reinvent their lives with passion and confidence.
“As a coach I guide and assist individuals facing any type of life transition to help them acquire self-assurance as they envision what their transition will look like, ensuring they gain new insight and fresh perspective. Together we create strategies that are customized and actionable so that they can work through barriers and live life on their own terms.”
Before becoming a coach, Ellen received a B.A. from University of California, Berkeley, and worked as a successful artist for a number of years. After she married and had two children, she worked in advertising and digital media, and after many years of dedicated work she ended up getting laid off. It was an eye opener - as an older woman being in a young tech town it was difficult to get hired. But she worked with a Life Coach who asked her what had given her the greatest satisfaction at work. She realized it was when she was acting as a liaison with people, and she had often been told she was very intuitive. This led her to become a Life Transition Coach, helping others to feel more empowered themselves.
Ellen encourages us to always be true to ourselves.
“When we listen to our inner voice, we are being authentic to who we really are because we are being honest about what is most important to us. By confronting our fears and roadblocks and freeing our innate wisdom and experience to guide us, we can then develop an actional plan to achieve our aspirations.”

Guelph, ON - We have been so influenced by our limiting beliefs of what constitutes a successful woman that we are easily caught off-guard and without resources when the structures start to crumble around us.
We are adrift and a sense of disempowerment can easily creep in as a societal and internally perceived decline into mediocrity takes hold.
Society does not define us. We have always defined ourselves, even within the structures that we operated within. The real challenge is how to step outside of those structures of beliefs that create our value and decisions about who we are as self-actualizing human beings to our very last breath and beyond.
As an experienced Certified Practitioner of NLP, Timeline and Hypnosis, utilizing a virtually content free, evidence driven, results based ‘Do With’ vs. ‘Do To’ proven system, I serve as your Guide to real and lasting change from your unwanted patterns served by outdated beliefs about yourself and the world you live within. From the first visit, my clients have been known to experience inner shifts and change that they never imagined possible, and with ease. I treat Health, Wealth, Love issues, Depression, Anxiety, Trauma, Phobias, and any trailing feelings, thoughts and behavior that get in the way of living to our full potential.
I believe all of what I do is even more important as we move out of the systems that have rewarded us into being ourselves, more fully and completely, into the truest time of freedom of our lives, The freedom to choose who we Are, with all of our magnificent wisdom and skills that we have built and continue to build, as an integral, meaningful and vital part of society as a whole.

Boulder, CO – Avinash Phipps, along with his partner Punitama Phipps are the founders of The Sattva Institute for Transformation integrating Western Psychological models and Eastern Philosophy and Mindfulness work for overall holistic health and healing.
“Through my unique teachings from mindfulness techniques, mediation, and trauma resolution. Through the unique teachings of mindfulness, meditation, and trauma resolution I bring more consciousness, wholeness, and wellness into your life. By uncovering personality blocks you will feel more energetic and literally improve your mental and physical health achieving harmony and balance mind, body, and spirit.”
Recent scientific evidence supports the fact that mindfulness meditation helps us resolve trauma. Avinash emphasizes that his distinctive unique approach is not external, based on the world around us, but who we really are internally. In fact, he says, our personalities are based on masks, because we are living in superficiality since our past conditionings, beliefs, worries, and anxieties block us from experiencing who we really are because we generally “act” as society expects us to causing us to feel lost and disconnected.
As a sought-after group leader meditation mentor, much of Avinash’s teachings are done through his engaging workshops, seminar and individual sessions where he teaches a variety of modalities like self-exploration and Breath and Trauma Release.
“We all face adversity and grief but we can manage these issues when we are physically and emotionally healthy and whole.”

WAUKESHA, WI - There are many health conditions that impact the lives of women. Many doctors fail to listen to patients and get to the root cause of their problems, but one doctor, a top-ranked OB/GYN with nearly 35 years of practice experience, not only looks at the hormone connection but has made it her mission to raise awareness of it! That Doctor is Victoria J. Mondloch.
Dr. Mondloch listens to patients so well that they view her as a partner and ally, and most refer to her as Doctor Vicki. As her website notes, she aims to empower patients, work together on diagnoses, partner in care and treatment, and discover the best steps to take towards optimal health. Often the key is hormone balancing, something the doctor herself learned when she had various skin and auto-immune symptoms back at the peri-menopausal stage.

LONG ISLAND CITY, NY - Maureen has dedicated her life to education and Christopher taught for a time as well. Two of her daughters also became teachers. She made one more notable contribution to the education field when she established The Christopher Santora Educational Scholarship Fund in honor of her son.
“He wanted to be a firefighter from the youngest age. So, we decided to honor him in a way that would help other students pursue their dreams too. Children need to hear that nothing should stand in the way of achieving what you wish for.” Over these years, the scholarship fund has endowed about three-quarters of a million dollars at many levels and continues to have influence for high school students.
Maureen is a noted education advocated and a teacher whose career began in 1967 and stopped only a few years ago. There was a small gap while she raised her four children, three of whom went into the education field as well. Maureen believes the first, best, and most constant teacher any child could have is their parent, and that every aspect of life together should center on education—from dinner table debates to family outings.
Maureen has nurtured families, students and other educational professionals, and participated in shaping curriculum, sharing effective methods, and creating the latest programs and policies. She focused on early childhood education (usually grades K to 2). She wishes we could get back to basics, and teaching geared to the most intelligent students. She loves to see parents and teachers thoroughly involved in education, both at home and in the community.

Wauconda, IL – Lila Solnick is a Certified Emotion Code® and Body Code™ Practitioner and the owner of Whole Heart Alchemy.
“I help people release trapped emotional baggage picked up from any traumatic experience throughout their lives. Research supports the fact that, if left untreated, emotional trauma often negatively impacts our wellbeing. This makes us more susceptible to chronic health conditions, strokes, diabetes, and all types of debilitating diseases that can affect us years after the trauma has occurred. After all, our minds and bodies are connected and when we don’t heal from our emotional wounds it stops us from fully connecting with ourselves and others and living our best lives.”
The Emotion Code® and Body Code™ were created by Dr. Bradley Nelson, a holistic chiropractor and medical intuitive. Dr. Nelson is one of the world’s most notable experts in the emerging fields of Bioenergetic Medicine and Energy Psychology. When he discovered that releasing trapped emotions allows the body to truly heal, he made it possible for every single one of us to live free from the physical and emotional wounds we experience in our daily lives.
Lila emphasizes how we are all energetic multi-dimensional beings having a human experience. We create our physical health and mental condition by the thoughts and emotions we choose. By embracing elevated emotions, we can create wholeness and joy which will lead to health and wellbeing. This is a partnership, where the client takes responsibility for consciously changing their behaviors, thoughts, and emotions to maximize the potential of working together. The Emotion Code® and Body Code™ make this journey much easier.

Verona, WI – Andrea Andree is a top-notch Empowerment Coach and Energy Healer and owner of The Empowered Living Space.
“My focus is working with moms who are feeling stuck and seeking to improve their lives, leverage their potential, and improve the ongoing process of being in a relationship with their child. I help you break through your energetic blocks and restore the balance and flow of energy throughout your body and soul, clarify what is important to you so you can overcome obstacles, and empower you to create strategies for achieving your goals.”
Before going into coaching, Andrea was working at a corporate job that left her feeling drained every day, while undergoing her own struggles as a new mom. One behavior that took her by surprise was how often she was yelling at and reacting to her small child. Seeking a more compassionate approach to parenting, she began exploring ways to regain control. It led her to learn about energy healing and how it helps diffuse triggers. She uses these techniques in her coaching, which helps her clients enhance their sense of confidence and look towards the future with optimism and hope.
The key is to let go of the disempowering thoughts, release the suppressed emotions, then call in the energy we want to feel instead. Once we feel the energy within our body, we can direct it out toward the goals we have in mind.
One of her favorite quotes is, “Be the change you wish to see in the world,” because it’s easier to change ourselves than convince someone else to change.

Asheville, NC – Tara Chandler is an experienced counselor focused on Somatic and EMDR treatment interventions that help individuals deal with emotional, psychological, and physical trauma and co-owner of Appalachian Counseling and Psychological Services.
For over ten years, Tara has been helping clients heal from their past wounds and pain through a specific type of somatic therapy, EMDR which stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. This therapy uses bilateral stimulation by moving the eyes in a directed way, to blur the emotions connected to any horrible experiences we have gone through. It can also help with anxiety disorders, depression, and even panic attacks.
Aside from EMDR, another therapy tool she uses somatic therapy, examines the body’s relationship to the mind and actually helps us get connected to our bodies. Because when we undergo trauma, our bodies hold on to memories of that trauma and we need to release them in order to fully recover. Through techniques like breathing exercises, dancing, and meditation we begin to genuinely feel better, lighter, with a better sense of purpose and renewed confidence.
Tara’s work is also tremendously focused on working with women going through any life transition, from divorce or relationship breakup, dealing with the loss of a loved one, becoming empty nesters, career changes, menopause, motivating us to achieve greatness and not get stuck in our limiting beliefs.
“If you are struggling with trauma and other challenges and issues you don’t have to suffer in silence and pain. There is no shame in reaching out for help and the benefits will be incredible. You can move from inner conflict to harmony and I am here to help you get there.”

WAUKESHA, WI - There are many health conditions that impact the lives of women. Many doctors fail to listen to patients and get to the root cause of their problems, but one doctor, a top-ranked OB/GYN with nearly 35 years of practice experience, not only looks at the hormone connection but has made it her mission to raise awareness of it! That Doctor is Victoria J. Mondloch.
Dr. Mondloch listens to patients so well that they view her as a partner and ally, and most refer to her as Doctor Vicki. As her website notes, she aims to empower patients, work together on diagnoses, partner in care and treatment, and discover the best steps to take towards optimal health. Often the key is hormone balancing, something the doctor herself learned when she had various skin and auto-immune symptoms back at the peri-menopausal stage.
Beyond her recognition and accolades from patients, Dr. Mondloch was 4-star rated by US News and World Reports and named Best in Medicine by the American Health Council, each authority honoring her for her achievements in Women’s Health.
In this new radio series, Dr. Mondloch will discuss Full Bloom, her first book Blossoming (which centers on the pubescent years to age 30) and the section she contributed to a new book published by The Professional Women’s Network. She will also reveal firsthand experiences with her health and her daughters, and why she turned her back on a successful group practice to explore leading edge medical approaches.

LONG ISLAND CITY, NY - Maureen has dedicated her life to education and Christopher taught for a time as well. Two of her daughters also became teachers. She made one more notable contribution to the education field when she established The Christopher Santora Educational Scholarship Fund in honor of her son.
“He wanted to be a firefighter from the youngest age. So, we decided to honor him in a way that would help other students pursue their dreams too. Children need to hear that nothing should stand in the way of achieving what you wish for.” Over these years, the scholarship fund has endowed about three-quarters of a million dollars at many levels and continues to have influence for high school students.
Maureen is a noted education advocated and a teacher whose career began in 1967 and stopped only a few years ago. There was a small gap while she raised her four children, three of whom went into the education field as well. Maureen believes the first, best, and most constant teacher any child could have is their parent, and that every aspect of life together should center on education—from dinner table debates to family outings.
Maureen has nurtured families, students and other educational professionals, and participated in shaping curriculum, sharing effective methods, and creating the latest programs and policies. She focused on early childhood education (usually grades K to 2). She wishes we could get back to basics, and teaching geared to the most intelligent students. She loves to see parents and teachers thoroughly involved in education, both at home and in the community.

Bedford, NY - Anne Reid is a dynamic personal development coach and keynote speaker who was always willing to step outside the box into a new challenge. It started back in her college days, when she travelled to Europe by herself and ventured on a post-graduation cross-country car trip with her roommate – taking nothing but a tent, a road atlas, and an insatiable curiosity about the world around her. Anne still consciously chooses to do something slightly outside her comfort zone daily. She describes this process of seeking and embracing discomfort as providing opportunities for self-discovery and personal growth. Such practices help set the tone for Anne’s life and contributed to her decision to become a coach full-time.
There was another element to her decision, a personal experience that led Anne to realize the full value of the coaching relationship. It was when this avowed outdoorsperson who had never walked or biked more than 10 miles in a single day, decided to enter a 100-mile bicycling event.
Anne believes it is also important to help clients identify the resources they’ll need for their journey—whether that might be more funding, equipment, specialized training or just mental fortitude.
Before becoming a coach and increasingly popular speaker and workshop leader, Anne spent many years rising through the ranks of the financial industry, dealing with the sale of securities and real estate projects. When her daughters reached a certain age in the early 2000’s, Anne wanted to be more flexible, more available, and to do something that felt more like a calling than work. So, she underwent her first coaching training. The rest is history.

Murrells Inlet, SC - The horror of human trafficking takes place in almost every area of the world. Everyday millions of adults and children worldwide are bought and sold, exploited, and violently abused through forced labor or sexual exploitation.
Betty Houbion is a human sex trafficking educator, advocate, and one of the most influential voices in raising awareness.
“Tragically, thousands of victims are trafficked into the United States annually. I encourage all of us to become involved in making change. For instance, spreading awareness in schools and universities. Also making certain to find local, state, and federal government representatives and encourage them to make stricter laws and make trafficking a policy priority.
Men are also diabolically lured into forced labor with false promises of a better life. No matter what race, color, religion, age, gender socioeconomic status, or education level, human traffickers relentlessly prey on their victims but generally exploit the most vulnerable people they can lure or trick into slavery. Remaining vigilant, knowing the signs of potential traffickers, and becoming more aware of our surroundings are also key to protecting ourselves and loved ones.
“Monitor your child’s online friends. Love them wholeheartedly and speak with them with understanding and love so they don’t become runaways and end up on the streets as easy prey. Everything you do makes all the difference in the world to keeping yourself and your family safe.”

Raleigh, NC - Lena Jackson is a young businesswoman with a story similar to that of many job seekers she supports in their efforts. She had risen to the top of the corporate ladder, but instead of being joyful about her accomplishments she felt a sense of dread at the thought of returning to work each Monday. By starting her own business, she satisfied her creative side, and feels more passion for what she’s doing. Lena’s team provides solutions that are effective, starting with the cornerstone service that gives the consultancy its name, The Resume Fix. Guidance is available for job transformations at every level, from the recent graduate to a top tier executive.
“We offer professional and creative resume writing, and several other services that facilitate results.”
Lena notes that her small team does a lot of career coaching with clients, whose challenges fall into three buckets. One is that they need help with interviews, especially once their enhanced resume gets them to the interview stage. The Resume Fix people walk job hunters through the process from A to Z, so they “show up in a major way” and have a more successful interview.
Lena mentions other services they provide for the modern job search, such as helping people evaluate their role or employment situation to see if that is truly the right spot. They assess benefits, work/life balance, and individual skills, particularly when it comes to working remotely. The Resume Fix team’s last area of focus is the enthusiasm for the work we do.

Saskatchewan, Canada - Elaine Unruh is a woman’s health advocate and owner of Ask Big Sister.
“My website and community page Hot Flashes to Menopause were developed based on candid conversations I had with clients and friends over the years who felt free to talk straightforwardly about their lives and sexual health issues. Women to women, we openly discussed health and sexual health, living with debilitating conditions and straight talk about everything from hormones, intercourse, relationships and being a woman. Through these candid conversations, I watched women open up thus eliminating the shame and stigma surrounding vaginal health by allowing them to view their sexuality with positivity and joy.”
Using the Sisterhood approach, Elaine’s website is designed for all of us to enjoy these frank discussions about everything from sexuality, healthy relationship behaviour, and reproductive health so we can stay informed and know we aren’t alone no matter what issue we face as our bodies evolve over time. Her site and community page are styled in an open forum format so women can actively ask questions and learn from the experiences of other women facing the same issues.
She became inspired to help others and pave the way for her own daughters and other women as they encounter issues so they won’t have to struggle to find answers as she did. Ask Big Sister allows you to ask the sisterhood for support and answers.

Yerington, NV – Patricia L. Blake is a retired police lieutenant and the author of Touched by the Hand of God in the City of Angels – Sent Me!
Patricia’s story began in her early childhood growing up in Oregon. As the firstborn of four children each born one year apart, she was expected by her parents to watch over her brother and two sisters. They would play cops and robbers and “Catch the Bad Guys”. In 1972, when she was 19, Patricia experienced a devastating traumatic event when her husband of four months, returning from serving two tours in the Vietnam War, tragically took his own life with a rifle. In the midst of her grief and pain, Patricia experienced a powerful miracle when she felt the hand of God or one of his Angels on her right shoulder. Instantly, her pain and grief was replaced by an incredibly loving presence and power of peace, love, and comfort.
Filled with new profound sense of awareness of God and his Angels watching over us guided her path into the field of law enforcement as First Responders and warriors for God’s Will, as she endearingly words it, “To be the devoted protectors of our most innocent and vulnerable.”
In 1983, Patricia was one of the first female police officers working the streets in Los Angeles.
Today, retired but still active as a Reserve with the LAPD in the local community, her mission reminds us of the transformative power of our own humanity, that even in these overwhelming difficult times of struggle, God surrounds us and protects us and shields us with his eternal love, forgiveness and power. Her book “Touched by the Hand of God in the City of Angels – Send me,” will be released soon during the beginning of August through Amazon and Barnes and Nobel on Kindle, hard cover and paperback.
Toronto, ON - Jason Young is the President and founding partner of Advantage Forensics, a forensic engineering firm based in Toronto. Jason has been featured in the media across Canada and on expert panels in the U.S. for his vast knowledge in Collision Reconstruction, Human Factors, and Biomechanics.
“As an expert forensic engineer, I investigate collisions, biomechanics, and all kinds of slips, trips, falls, and unfortunate accidents people get into on daily basis. I testify on slippery conditions, on vehicle speeds, on injury fraud, and on all human factors contributing to accidents. Ultimately, my job is to assist the court by explaining the science and engineering behind the case in clear-cut language that they will understand.”
One of the highlights that sets Advantage Forensics apart from other firms is their incredible attention to detail using the most state of the art analysis tools. Advantage Forensics uses highly sophisticated collision simulation software, forensic video analysis software, and vehicle download software for infotainment consoles that most experts have never been trained in.
“We are also recognized world-wide experts in night time collision investigation and re-enactment. We have re-enacted the most complex night time collision scenarios that most other firms won’t even attempt.”
All of these cases either proceed to trial with a judge and jury, or settle out of court. In fact, one of the major frustrations in the industry, according to Jason, is throroughly preparing for court on a case that ends up settling at the doorsteps of trial.

Atlanta, GA – Lisa Edmondson is a Leadership Coach and founder of Leadership Reno, LLC
“My primary goal is to convince organizations to redefine the characteristics of a successful people leader, recalibrate the metrics used to measure their success, and raise awareness about the severity of the consequences that result when organizations don’t get it right. Toxic leaders and bullying in the workplace have become a global pandemic that is a key contributor to the Great Resignation. Unequivocally, people-leaders have the most influencial role in an organization when it comes to employee engagement and productivity. They can make or break the success of an organization. For instance, when people-leaders engage with their employees with authenticity, genuine empathy, self-awareness, and strong communication skills, they inspire personal and professional growth. This results in the innovation and productivity that positively impact the bottom line.”
Before starting her coaching practice, Lisa experienced her own personal struggle as a target of workplace bullying. Having worked at a company successfully for almost 11 years, she suddenly found herself in a scenario where she experienced intimidation, harassment, and sabotage that ultimately cost her a job where she was revered by her employees. Today, she finds fulfillment speaking about her experience and collaborating with other industry experts to fight the battle against workplace bullying.
Lisa believes great people-leaders are the solution to companies struggling with a disengaged and disconnected work force. A leader who puts their people first creates an optimistic, collaborative workplace destined for success.

LONG ISLAND CITY, NY - Maureen Santora has dedicated her life to education. She also embraced education professionally, as a teacher since 1967 who only retired a few years ago. There was a small gap while she raised her four children, three of whom went into the education field as well. Maureen believes the first, best, and most constant teacher any child can have is their parent.
Maureen has been a vocal advocate for education and is a notable expert in the field. She supports families, students and other professionals in shaping curriculum, sharing effective methods, and creating programs and policies. She made another notable contribution to education when she established The Christopher Santora Educational Scholarship Fund in honor of her son, who was a history major, then a substitute teacher and a firefighter. Sadly, Christopher passed away in the September 11th national tragedy.
“He wanted to be a firefighter from the youngest age. So, we decided to honor him in a way that would help other students pursue their dreams too. Children need to hear that nothing should stand in the way of achieving what you wish for.” Over these past 20 years, the scholarship fund has endowed about three-quarters of a million dollars at many levels and continues to make a difference for high school students.
Maureen has particular expertise in early childhood education. She wishes we could get back to basics, and teaching geared to the most intelligent students.
Maureen also encourages parents to take a more active role in their child’s education, at the home and school levels.

Yerington, NV – Patricia L. Blake is a retired police lieutenant and the author of Touched by the Hand of God in the City of Angels – Sent Me!
Patricia’s story began in her early childhood growing up in Oregon. As the firstborn of four children each born one year apart, she was expected by her parents to watch over her brother and two sisters. They would play cops and robbers and “Catch the Bad Guys”. In 1972, when she was 19, Patricia experienced a devastating traumatic event when her husband of four months, returning from serving two tours in the Vietnam War, tragically took his own life with a rifle. In the midst of her grief and pain, Patricia experienced a powerful miracle when she felt the hand of God or one of his Angels on her right shoulder. Instantly, her pain and grief was replaced by an incredibly loving presence and power of peace, love, and comfort.
Filled with new profound sense of awareness of God and his Angels watching over us guided her path into the field of law enforcement as First Responders and warriors for God’s Will, as she endearingly words it, “To be the devoted protectors of our most innocent and vulnerable.”
In 1983, Patricia was one of the first female police officers working the streets in Los Angeles.
Today, retired but still active as a Reserve with the LAPD in the local community, her mission reminds us of the transformative power of our own humanity, that even in these overwhelming difficult times of struggle, God surrounds us and protects us and shields us with his eternal love, forgiveness and power. Her book “Touched by the Hand of God in the City of Angels – Send me,” will be released soon during the beginning of August through Amazon and Barnes and Nobel on Kindle, hard cover and paperback.

Columbia MD – Tom Glenn is a Vietnam vet who has had multiple careers including intelligence operative, musician, linguist in seven languages, cryptologist, caregiver for the dying, and leadership coach. He has a BA in Music, a master’s in government, and a doctorate in Public Administration. A sought-after public speaker, he is the author of a series of novels and short story collections: Friendly Casualties, Last of the Annamese, The Trion Syndrome, No-Accounts, Secretocracy, and Coming to Terms.
“It’s unbelievable how the U.S. essentially and unapologetically glorifies combat. I stopped reading books on war because they never truly captured the savagery, carnage, and the unimaginable devastation that surrounded us on the battlefield. How we had to witness our buddies horrifically killed when their mutilated body parts landed all over us. The helplessness, suffering, and anguish of combat is indescribable.”
With such gut wrenching accounts, how does it not evoke our sense of humanity? Yet we continually disengage and desensitize ourselves and enjoy watching bloodshed depicted in movies which, for the most part, are purely made for entertainment and profit.
Tom emphasizes how today the similarities of the atrocities in Ukraine remind Tom once again the senselessness and depravity of putting young soldiers and civilians through the horror of battle.
Tom says the United States must restore its international leadership role. “It is crucial that we lead the world toward universal democracy and freedom.”

Clarksville, TN - Margaret Rennerfeldt has an MFA in Dance and Performance and is a member of ISMETA, the International Somatic Movement Education and Therapy Association, as well as SEI Somatic Experiencing International. Several years ago, while continuing to teach reading and dance, she launched a new venture. Mindful Movement is dedicated to authentic and creative movement, innovative and technical approaches, and the ability to spur emotional growth and heal trauma via the physical body.
“My work is different from any psychologist or talk therapist in that it’s not about the story, or about talking, it’s about discovering what is left in the body that was not completed during a traumatic event.”
Margaret understands that when you move the body in distinct ways stuff comes up. People don’t always understand what is happening and what they are feeling and that’s where her role as a teacher, somatic educator and somatic experiencing practitioner comes in. In a typical one-on-one session, Margaret invites the sensations to arise, encourages people to be curious about them, and observes movements as well as subtle changes in the nervous system. Together, they explore all that is taking place. Sometimes people will identify a certain trauma, pain, or unresolved aggression.
Margaret has not performed in recent years but says she will always be a dancer and use her body as long as she can. She believes her passion for dance and knowledge of how the body works are invaluable in helping others to explore movement and achieve optimal wellness.

New Port Richey, FL - Rose Claire is a sought after, successful Psychic Medium, writer, editor, business owner, and teacher. She holds a Master’s Degree in Exceptional Student Education and a Bachelor’s in Sociology.
“My work is focused on using Tarot and astrology to provide the clarity people need, which empowers them to make better life decisions. Through my work, people can deeply reflect on their lives and envision a more enlightened, happier future ahead.”
Rose says Tarot is the most ideal tool for self-discovery. With a Tarot reading, we acquire new perspectives based on the interpretation of the cards. On the other hand, astrology is based more on archetypes and how they relate to one another, although Tarot and astrology strongly intertwine to help us reconnect with our inner selves. While astrology focuses on planetary movements, Tarot depends on the reader’s interpretation of the cards. With positive, encouraging guidance, Rose helps us become self-aware of our issues and concerns so can take our next steps with renewed confidence and greater perception.
As a medium, Rose connects us with those who have passed on.
Aside from her readings, Rose expertly shares her gifts by teaching classes in psychic development, mediumship, and reading Tarot cards. Additionally, she helps writers, actors and artists tap into their intuitive, creative sides so they can thrive in their professional careers.
“I absolutely love guiding my clients and helping them find comfort and purpose through my guidance. My mission is to help you obtain a wonderful life that is right within your reach.”

She supports families, students and other professionals in shaping curriculum, sharing effective methods, and creating programs and policies. She made another notable contribution to education when she established The Christopher Santora Educational Scholarship Fund in honor of her son, who was a history major, then a substitute teacher and a firefighter. Sadly, Christopher passed away in the September 11th national tragedy.
“He wanted to be a firefighter from the youngest age. So, we decided to honor him in a way that would help other students pursue their dreams too. Children need to hear that nothing should stand in the way of achieving what you wish for.” Over these past 20 years, the scholarship fund has endowed about three-quarters of a million dollars at many levels and continues to make a difference for high school students.
Maureen has particular expertise in early childhood education. She wishes we could get back to basics, and teaching geared to the most intelligent students.
Maureen also encourages parents to take a more active role in their child’s education, at the home and school levels.

Fort Worth, TX -- Dave Koger has 42 years of experience designing and installing image analysis systems, training users, and conducting analyses of photos and image data. He has achieved a name for himself in government, academic and defense circles, and also supported various corporate clients Dave has also worked with explorers and broadcast journalists on a number of exciting discovery activities, such as where The Titanic went down, how the "picture" came to be imprinted on The Shroud of Turin, and where landslides are endangering what lies below. Dave also worked on the many detours taken by the Santa Fe Trail in Kansas and Oklahoma.
“I look at the earth with imaging technology, like satellites and aerial photography. LANDSAT data are distributed by the US Geological Survey team, and SENTINEL data comes from the European Space Agency. My clients all need the same thing: information."
That is how Dave explained a recent focus of his consulting work, expert witness. Wildfires damage crops, buildings, fences, equipment, and habitat...and literally scorch the soils. Where the wildfires started was critical information for several Central Texas ranchers, where wildfires had been costing them dearly year-after-year. In another case, an oil operator didn’t want to clean up after himself, so Dave gathered proof of damages and pollution on the land and nearby lake.
Dave says that his work as a systems trainer taught him valuable lessons about sharing techniques and learning from colleagues. He looks forward to sharing his knowledge and discoveries with others in his July talk radio appearance.

Betty’s unwavering mission to make certain that one day, we will eliminate the horrors of human trafficking and she is determined to achieve it.
“The bigger challenge, besides fighting against it, is to reduce demand. It’s also important in educating our most vulnerable population about the very real dangers and horror of human trafficking and ways they can be easily lured by predators. In addition, we must teach political officials, children, parents, and police officers the reality that it’s also more rampant and must be addressed more frequently in our communities.”
Betty reminds us how the obscenely wealthy own the actual resorts where brought boys and girls are trafficked, making it an even bigger challenge to overcome. The average age of the sex victim has shifted now from very young girls to women in their thirties creating an even more widespread probem.
Betty encourages supporting Polaris Project, with whom she works closely. Polaris Project is a U.S. based anti-trafficking NGO where we can all share our voice of protest.

Internal coaching is when coaches and coachees work within the same organization. An important component of building an internal coaching culture is to infuse coaching skills in all people leaders and influencers within an organization. When you couple this with strong mentorship and advocacy programs, you start to promote a clear commitment to helping employees succeed. You will magnify an employee’s contributions and development when you layer this with a program that enables people to work with coaches within their organization, with shared experiences and who have “skin in the game”. An internal coach understands the company’s culture, mission and goals. An effective internal program is one where the coaches are focused on coaching as a primary role and responsibility and are specifically trained to work with people who do not report to them.
Currently Joe is engaged in mergers and acquisitions assisting two company cultures grapple with how to assimilate in their new roles and helping leaders find their voice.

SANTA BARBARA, CA - If there were such a thing as a professional worrier, it is a title that Cassandra “Cassie” Anne Shea nearly adopted. She once fretted over everything. Then one day Cassie found her inner voice and it changed everything. She became a book author and a Life Experience Coach, using all she had learned to help others from being robbed of pure happiness.
When it comes to life experiences, Cassie notes it’s the quality, not the quantity, that counts. While she might be young, Cassie has already faced some of the toughest crossroads—things like a job change, a divorce, moving to a new place. Now she helps others who are at a transition point in their life to reshape their life experience. The first step she says, is to realize you have to be someone different to get to the other side.
This requires dealing with things deeply and soulfully, which is not necessarily the same as seriously. Cassie says approaching things from a point of humor can take the sting out of the stories we don’t want to tell. In fact, her forthcoming book Let’s Worry About Everything relates her own life story with a healthy dose of humor. Cassie shares her feelings of being lonely or hollow, all that stress from earning an MBA then taking on multiple responsibilities for people and marketing strategies, and even her failed personal relationships. But her life story changed to a positive one when she decided to stop worrying so much.
According to Cassie, “I help them to narrow the focus, set priorities and design the change. And I give them the tools to get to their goals.”

Conroe, TX – Vanessa Correa is founder and CEO of Correa Pearson and Associates an accountant, tax strategist and and financial coach taking accounting to a whole new level of financial services.
"We are an accounting firm with a non-traditional, holistic approach towards financial literacy. What's different about CP&A is they are not just an accounting firm that files taxes. They provide long term value by coaching and educating their clients year-round to teach them smarter ways of handling their money.”
During a college internship at an accounting firm, Vanessa noticed how little CPAs seemed to focus on the value being provided to their clients with regard to guidance in their overall financial goals.
Vanessa's goal through her company is to ultimately help individuals and entrepreneurs achieve financial abundance and to help them create the freedom needed to grow their business and live a life of wealth and success. She is enthusiastic about a new generation of business owners and freelancers starting out in the new workforce but also cautions those new business owners who may want to manage their own finances.
"So many people want to do their own taxes. They see it as a necessary evil. That's the tax process. For us it starts the day they open their business."
Vanessa encourages us to invest wisely from the start in our financial future by seeking out firms like hers that will not just file taxes, but help navigate them through the many pitfalls that failing businesses succumb to in the end.

Brian’s own life journey as a gay man is what inspired him to go into coaching.

Eventually, he left his corporate job and opened up his practice finally discovering his true life passion as the gay guru.
Brain works with five specific areas including coming out as a gay man, aging, career, relationships, and spirituality every single one customized and tailored to his client’s individual needs.
“Queer folks need to realize that there’s nothing wrong with who they are. That realization is key to an abundant life. With my coaching I assist them in embracing their authenticity as the wonderful people they truly are. Then they can live the life they want in peace and prosperity.”

A sought-after public speaker, he is the author of a series of novels and short story collections: Friendly Casualties, Last of the Annamese, The Trion Syndrome, No-Accounts, Secretocracy, Friendly Casualties, and Coming to Terms.

Pinedale, WY – Jan Schaad is a top notch psychotherapist, known nationally and internationally, and an approved consultant and trainer with the EMDR International Association.
“My work centers on helping people work through emotional difficulties and mental health challenges so they can become their best selves,” says Jan. “Fortunately, in psychotherapy today, we have been increasingly and successfully integrating alternative medicine techniques into healing our clients with remarkably sustainable results.”
Developed by psychologist, Francine Shapiro, EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing and can treat anything ranging from mental health issues to addictions. In an EMDR procedure, the therapist leads clients in specific eye movements, and other movements, that release our bad memories and allow negative thoughts, beliefs and emotions to be constructively recycled and eliminated.
“My work is also focused on the whole person approach,” says Jan. “This emphasizes how our thoughts and attitudes affect how our bodies function since the mind and body are clearly linked. For instance, when we are depressed or anxious this affects our physical bodies as well and our overall health and longevity.”
With her tailored and structured treatment plans, Jan encourages people try a variety of different modalities like acupuncture, massage, meditation, reiki, and yoga that provide them ways to connect more with themselves and their life’s purpose.
“I love supporting my clients to be more self-aware of their internal state and get help to navigate through problems and shift their perspective.”

Long Island City, NY - While preparing for this series, Maureen had just returned from a camping trip with her family. Camping, she notes, is one of many family experiences, such as sports activities and global travel, that Maureen has enjoyed all her life, and experiences that provide teachable moments,
“There is a teaching moment in everything. If a child loses a game, if a student doesn’t get an excellent grade, that is a teaching moment. It works for everyone and in every situation.”
So says this dynamic educational expert who has been teaching since 1967 and only retired a few years ago. There was a small gap while she raised her four children, three of whom went into the education field as well. Maureen believes the first, best, and most constant teacher every child can have is their parent.
Maureen has been a vocal advocate for education her entire life, helping families, students and other professionals to shape curriculum, share effective approaches, and participate in program and policy making. She made another notable contribution to education when she established The Christopher Santora Educational Scholarship Fund in honor of her son, who was a history major, then a substitute teacher and a firefighter. Sadly, Christopher passed away in the September 11th national tragedy.
Maureen has particular expertise in early childhood education. She wishes we could get back to basics —like phonics, math by formula/repetition, and teaching geared to the most intelligent students (which she considers top down instead of bottom up.) Maureen says teachers know better than anyone else just how kids learn.

Additionally, Magdalena was struggling with her own poor health including pre-diabetes and the stress of her nursing job. Once she made the decision not to undergo surgeries or radiation loaded with toxins, Magdalena began her own amazing natural healing process.

Placerville, CA – Janet DeMaria is an inventor, entrepreneur, owner, and founder of Skadoosie, an online apparel for newborns.
An interior designer by trade, Janet decided to leave her corporate job after her husband tragically and unexpectedly passed away from asbestos cancer. In deep mourning, feeling she needed positive change, she decided to start babysitting. One day, while she was changing the diapers of a 4-month-old she found herself extremely frustrated with the snaps on the baby’s onesies. These snaps were the cause of sweating and rashes when her own son was a baby. At that point, it dawned on her that she could design her own onesie, so she expertly began creating prototypes. Gone are the days of discomfort, rashes, and sweating for our pampered little babies.
Soon after, Janet began diligently working with a manufacturer, and started attending trade shows and expos all over the country, officially becoming an online business. In 2016 Janet acquired her patent. Skadoosie has received, Parents Magazine Editor Pick 2018 titled “Why didn’t I think of that”, The National Parenting Seal of Approval, and Mom’s Choice Award Gold.

Santee, CA – Dr. Wayne Whalen is a highly sought after chiropractor and founder and owner of Whalen Chiropractic.
According to Dr. Wayne Whalen, a full service chiropractor who has practiced chiropractic medicine for over 35 years and has co-authored multiple peer reviewed guidelines for the profession.
"I recommend seeing a chiropractor at the onset of minor pain before it becomes a serious problem."
He sees the problem from a mechanical perspective and has co-authored the national guidelines to address these ailments in a more holistic approach rather than rely on over-the-counter or prescription drugs. His first recommendation would be a 6 visit trial including spinal manipulation, exercise advise and other options. Most spinal problems relate to mechanical dysfunction, and respond well to mechanical, rather than chemical treatments. He recommends a thorough evaluation, trial of care, and assessment for improvement after treatment.
Dr. Whalen also points out that seeing a chiropracter is a much safer option than taking drugs or having surgery.
"There is a reason we have an opiode crisis in this country.and a lot of it stems from all the physicians over prescribing drugs that are both addictive and deadly."
Dr. Whalen now works with a team of practicing chiropractors who have created national guidelines on addressing lower back pain. A couple of years ago, he published a guideline on neck pain, and most recently chronic pain.
“My work is all evidence based and although I do not make promises, I explain how I approach pain management."

Las Vegas, NV – Kashif “Chief” Brown is a top-notch counselor and Founder and President of Chief Counseling, which offers effective tailored therapeutic approaches with a main focus on an evidence-based psychotherapy called EMDR.
“My counseling work is centered on allowing people suffering from past disturbing or traumatic experiences to successfully heal,” says Chief. “No matter what type of emotional suffering, anxiety, panic, or anxiety they have, I help them decrease those symptoms so they go about living life again before the trauma impacted them or discover a new, magnificent way of living they never thought possible.”
EMDR, which stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, uses bilateral stimulation, in the form of rapid eye right/left movement which activates both sides of the brain, much like what occurs in REM sleep. This releases emotional experiences “trapped” in the nervous system assisting the neurophysiological system to free itself of blockages. EMDR relieves our negative emotions safely, effectively, and efficiently.
Engaging fully with his clients, Chief creates a safe space where clients can heal, grow and flourish, and feel more comfortable in their own skin. With compassion and empathy, he genuinely cares about their healing journey.
“We don’t need to keep our pain bottled up inside. EMDR means hope and gratitude. Whatever your pain is, you are not alone. Seek out professional qualified people like myself who are determined to help you so you can love life again and see a better tomorrow.”

Waterloo, Ontario – Jan Yordy is the founder of Waterloo Brain Connections, where she specializes in NeurOptimal®, a neurofeedback system designed to help your nervous system become more flexible and resilient.
According to Jan, we have to train our brain like we train our muscles. NeurOptimal® is a non-invasive way of addressing our hidden beliefs that allows us to make changes without getting stuck in old patterns and reactions.
Traditional linear neurofeedback systems only work with the conscious mind, but the conscious mind is only a very small percentage of the whole activity of the brain. NeurOptimal® is unique in that it is the only neurofeedback system that works in a non-linear, dynamical way; it works with the whole brain, not just the conscious mind.
Jan compares NeurOptimal® to holding up a mirror to our nervous system so it is informed about what it is doing.
Jan was a therapist for over twenty-five years and has used NeurOptimal for over fourteen of those years. On January first of this year she launched Waterloo Brain Connections and decided to focus exclusively on NeurOptimal®..
“I've always been fascinated with the brain and energy,” recalls Jan. “For many years I was using NeurOptimal® with most of my therapy clients.”
Not only does Jan see clients in person at her location in Waterloo, but she also rents out neurofeedback systems, assists in the sale of systems and teaches NeurOptimal® certification classes for those who want a more in depth understanding of NeurOptimal® and how it works.

Columbia, TN – Danielle Rose is a certified Emotion Code practitioner and the founder of Risen Light Works.
“My mission is to bring people into a place of wholeness spiritually, emotionally and physically,” says Danielle. “I want to bring people into a place of a faith, abundance, health, and peace so they can walk in the fullness of their God-given talents. Nothing brings me greater joy.”
According to Danielle, our emotions play a major role in our overall well-being. Our emotional state and stress, particularly trauma, can feed disease processes in the body and create unhealthy thought patterns in the soul.
The Emotion Code, developed by Dr. Bradley Nelson, is an energy healing modality, which helps the body to achieve higher vibrational states. Dr. Nelson has defined 60 negative emotions that can become trapped in the body, like balls of energy, which may lead to physical discomfort and pain, as well as create anxious thought patterns, fears, sleep issues, among other emotional difficulties. Through the Emotion Code, Danielle can release that energy.
“What we're doing is removing the energetic blocks that prevent the body from returning to a place of healing and homeostasis,” says Danielle.
Everyone is on a journey, and Danielle says her journey has been challenging in many respects. Before she discovered the Emotion Code, Danielle suffered from severe anxiety. Her son had various challenges, and she was desperate to find healing for him.
More people are beginning to understand the connection between mind, body and spirit for our overall health. Holistic modalities like The Emotion Code offer patients an alternative path in their quest for healing.

Becket, MA -- Gail Valentin is a date coach and former matchmaker who helps high-achieving women over 40 to attract the love of their lives—without wasting time dating the wrong men. With her strategic support and coaching steps, women can find love, and do so in months, not years.
Gail says her coaching is about love mastery. Once a woman finds her irresistible and magnetic self, it makes attracting the right man inevitable. But love is an inside job and requires work on ourselves. More than shifting your thinking, it’s about re-programming your beliefs and the powerful words we tell ourselves.
Gail emphasizes that we only accept the love we think we deserve, and we must change that by erasing negative thoughts of being unworthy, unlovable or even uninterested. We must heal past wounds so that we make choices from our worth rather than our wounds. We must make better choices in finding a nurturing partner who will give us all that we deserve. Also, when we do find that wonderful guy, we have to work at the love relationship. Address conflicts. Agree to disagree. Discuss dreams and even intimacy openly without fear.
Learn more about the five key steps to uncover your love blocks, become magnetic, and attract and keep the perfect mate when you listen to the show. Gail will give us a mini master class on how to win at love during her chat with Jim Masters and invite interested women to get a copy of The Dating Woman’s Guide to Spotting Red Flags by visiting https://bit.ly/grab-dating-guide.

Additionally, Kerri is working with a company called iFranchise to franchise the vacation rental side of her cleaning business where any of us can buy the rights to use her dynamic systems and processes and have a short-term rental cleaning business in their area.

SONOMA, CA - During the 25-years Maggie Huffman was busy building two substantial careers in male-dominated industries (winemaking and information technology), the business world was transforming, becoming more diverse, and welcoming multiple viewpoints into decision-making. So, when Maggie officially became a coach in 2014, it was a boost for all those women who wanted to move into leadership but who may not have had confidence that their experience, skills and knowledge were enough. Maggie, who already had a master’s degree that included counseling, and had been building and inspiring teams all along, then pursued several new certifications. Since becoming a certified coach, she’s helped countless women to reflect, peel away layers, and discover their hidden talents and worth.
Maggie created a coaching program to help people, particularly women, become new or more effective leaders. The process, named Your Leadership Color Palette, guides clients to assess, close gaps, gain clarity and confidence, and become the leader they aspire to be. This program evolved from a book she published, and one of four she wrote on personal development subjects, The Rainbow Onion: The Transformative Power of Color Thinking. Maggie is currently working on a card deck for step-by-step execution of this incredible color-based development process.
Maggie stresses that women are often more critical of themselves and their skill sets, because they were socialized to be that way. She challenges women to re-examine their skills and leadership abilities.
Close Up Radio will feature Maggie Huffman in an interview with Jim Masterson Thursday, June 2nd at 12pm Eastern

Naples, FL – Weather and climate are huge influences on nearly every aspect of our lives. This includes our everyday activities, the clothes we wear, the foods that can be grown, our livelihoods, our travel (local and vacation), the cost of heating and cooling our homes, our health, and much more.
Yet, the concepts of climate and weather are often muddled, while the two are actually fundamentally different. According a colleague of Mike’s, “Climate is what you expect, weather is what you get.”
Today, we have daily weather forecasts, hurricane season forecasts, and longer-term climate and climate change predictions. The latter are often presented with the same authority as the shorter-term weathercasts we have come to love on TV and on the Internet. When the media, social media, schools, and tv meteorologists all preach human-caused climate change, it’s hard to get the whole story.
This interview will explain that climate change is real, but that it goes beyond just carbon dioxide. It will challenge you to think about the many implications surrounding climate change.
To help listeners better understand the two science areas, Mike routinely writes a blog where he explains weather. You can reach this blog by visiting his web site http://www.weatherworks.com and scrolling down to the link to “Lifelong Learning Blog.” He also has a published book entitled “Extreme Weather,” in which he explains weather of all types and goes into detail about climate and climate change. Feel free to contact him at learning@weatherworks.com for more information.
Kitchener, ON – Cheryl Himburg is a certified Mindset & Leadership coach and the founder of Key Element Solutions, where she empowers women to shatter their glass ceiling and achieve ambitious results.
“Key Element Solutions is a space for women to be able to explore their goals and visions of success and be supported in developing their own styles of leadership,” says Cheryl.
Cheryl is a catalyst for growth and success. She understands the need to continue evolving individually and in business, and she has developed an approach to overcome barriers standing in the way of success.
“Growing up, I was told if I wanted to be successful, I had to work hard and have a good attitude,” recalls Cheryl. “Well, I worked hard and I had a good attitude, but it didn't bring me what I desired.”
Cheryl struggled she says, because she was never taught how to cultivate the right mindset.
According to Cheryl, we can never outperform our subconscious beliefs. By understanding how we think and how our experiences have shaped us, we can reshape our limiting beliefs into beautiful confidence.
“I wanted to create space for women to be able to move beyond the feeling that the world is against them,” says Cheryl. “We always have that capability within ourselves to make decisions that are empowering for us. I’m most proud of the relationship I've built with myself. The impact I'm having, the shift and the change I get to bring into the world would not be possible without my journey. I leaned in when it was uncomfortable and built myself into the woman I am.”

Springfield, MA – Winning the fight against breast cancer is reason for celebration, but the physical and emotional scars remain.
When Linda Washington finished treatment, she proved she was much more than just her disease, but the dating world had changed.
“When some men hear you had breast cancer, their whole demeanor changes, and the coldness and the rudeness that comes after is beyond cruel,” says Linda. “They said I’m not a real woman anymore, nobody is ever going to want me, and I needed to get used to that. I thought you were supposed to love people for who they are.”
Linda says her experience is something that happens to a lot of women, but they usually stay silent, so she launched a blog called Strength of Survivors. She wanted women facing these same challenges to not lose hope.
Today, Strength of Survivors is a place breast cancer survivors can go to express their concerns about dating after breast cancer. Linda helps motivate and comfort her fellow warriors to let them know finding love again is possible.
Linda also writes and records music to lift up breast cancer survivors.
Linda says she would like to fall in love again and enjoy the rest of her life with someone who sees her for who she is.

Double Oak, TX – How do airlines ensure they do not discriminate against people with disabilities, but treat them with respect and dignity?
In 1986, the Air Carrier Access Act (ACAA) was enacted to ensure people with disabilities are treated fairly when flying and that all services offered by airlines are accessible to them. This important legislation, signed into law four years prior to the American with Disabilities Act, provides passengers with disabilities rights and expectations when traveling by air.
With a near 40 year career with American Airlines, Bonnie Hayes has extensive experience in serving passengers with disabilities, training front line employees on how to deliver services and developing policy and procedures that impact the travel experience for people with varying types of disabilities.
“I can remember the years before the ACAA was enacted and how passengers with disabilities were treated,” says Bonnie. “This regulation has brought about many necessary improvements to the aviation industry.”
Today, Bonnie is an expert on 14 CFR Part 382 and the founder of Access 382, where she specializes in litigation consulting and expert witness testimony relating to cases involving with airline passengers with disabilities. Many aviation consultants or expert witnesses are pilots whose focus are aircraft incidents and safety of flight. They aren’t familiar with accessibility for people with disabilities and how federal regulations protect them from discrimination.
As for the future, Bonnie says she would like to see airlines partner with the disabled community to not only meet their needs but exceed their expectations.

Garland, TX – Dr. John Lundell is an anesthesiologist and expert witness.
“Explaining to patients what I plan to do and why is great practice for writing a report that is easy for a judge or a jury to understand,” says Dr. Lundell. “Even though attorneys and judges have lots of knowledge, it’s not medical- or anesthesia-related knowledge. It’s a lot like teaching—explain medical terms in words the audience can understand. Pictures and charts help, but I like analogies. If people can relate a complex medical concept to something they know already, it is easier to understand.”
“You have such a good bedside manner—why waste it in anesthesia where your patients are all asleep?”
Dr. Lundell has been answering that question since 1994 when he first began training to be an anesthesiologist.
“As an anesthesiologist I give patients medication to induce sleep,” explains Dr. Lundell, “but I also place breathing tubes, arterial catheters, central venous catheters and nerve blocks. I manage consciousness, patient safety and positioning, blood pressure, heart rate, respirations, urine output, blood loss and transfusions under changing surgical conditions. I transport critical patients between the OR and the ICU, manage critically ill patients for emergency surgery and run intraoperative codes. Complications can happen during any of these activities.”
The question, says Dr Lundell, is always: “Did the anesthesiology team meet the standard of care?
“I know being an expert witness has made me a better anesthesiologist,” says Dr. Lundell.

Morgantown, WV – Disaster can strike at any moment. Do you know what to do in an emergency situation?
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Jeanie Edwards is the founder of The CPR Gals, specializing in disaster preparedness education and first-aid training.
“The question is not if something is going to happen, but rather when,” says Jeanie. “Once you accept that, you can start preparing for the inevitable. With training, you will feel a whole lot more comfortable and confident because you can handle pretty much anything that gets thrown at you.”
The CPR Gals teach people how to help save lives, offering classes in CPR and First Aid classes so people can be prepared and confident enough to act until uniformed first responders arrive.
“Keep the patient calm, make sure 911 has been called, and begin administering CPR because every second counts,” says Jeanie. “CPR is cardio pulmonary resuscitation. When the body stops breathing, and you can no longer feel a pulse, you need to take over the body’s job: breathing and pumping the heart to keep the vital organs alive until advanced medical care can begin.”
Jeanie was inspired by her grandparents, who were British Red Cross in the 1920s. Jeanie herself has been a volunteer with the American Red Cross since 1968 and an EMT for 20 years.
“I’m most proud of knowing that I have made a difference in people's lives,” says Jeanie. “There is a ripple effect.”

Tustin, CA – Unexpected deaths happen all the time as a result of complications from surgery. Some deaths are unpreventable. This was not one of those times.
Dr. Darwish is a board-certified internal medicine physician and full-time practicing hospitalist at the University of California, Irvine Medical Center.
Dr. Darwish is currently the director of the Morbidity and Mortality Conference at UCI. Any unexplained deaths are submitted for his review.
“From the time I started, I was always interested in learning from mistakes in the hospital,” says Dr. Darwish.
As a hospitalist in the university setting, Dr. Darwish teaches the doctors of tomorrow to improve their skills, knowledge, and bedside manner.
“I try to put my feet in the physician’s shoes,” says Dr. Darwish. “I have young doctors around me all the time, but I see it from the young doctors, as well as the most experienced, where things could have been missed.”
Expert witness work is an extension of what Dr. Darwish already does at UCI.
“It's detective work. I like trying to figure out like the true reason behind what happened,” explains Dr. Darwish. “Was there something that could have been done before or after surgery that could have prevented this from happening? Was there a deviation from the standard of care? I review that based on the written record.”
Of course, the jury eventually decides. But Dr. Darwish says being an expert witness allows him to be a part of the system trying to find balance.
“It helps to deliver justice and it helps improve the health care system.”

Menifee, CA – Kimberly Wagenmakers is a Psychic Medium Empath and Healer that helps rescue, restore and balance energy for Harmony.
Kimberly says she knew from a very young age that she was different. She could hear spirits, but she tried to hide her gifts and suppress them. Her devotion to being a psychic medium began after the loss of her son.
“He was my home. He was my family. We had an incredible connection,” recalls Kimberly. “I knew I had gifts my whole life. When I let him go, everything I'd been holding back flooded open. I thought, ‘I'm going to be me from now on. This is what he would want. This was his purpose.’”

Through her abilities, Kimberly has helped many people recover from their loss and brokenheartedness.

Canandaigua, NY – Kristen Fragnoli is a life and leadership coach and the founder of Quest Potential Coaching where she helps people integrate their life with their work.
“Life and leadership go together,” says Kristen.
According to Kristen, a life consisting of two disparate parts actually creates more stress, because you are not being authentic. That’s why Kristen works primarily with executive leaders on how to prioritize their authentic selves.
Kristen coaches her clients to connect with those gifts and talents in themselves and in others to see leadership in new ways, allowing teams to bring their skills and talent to the table, so they can bring enthusiasm and find meaning.
“Your team can only be as vibrant as you are,” says Kristen. “Finding it in yourself is always where it all starts.”
Prior to launching Quest Potential Coaching, Kristen worked in higher education for 30 years as a professor, dean and finally vice president of a college.
“I loved higher education, until I didn't,” recalls Kristen. “I experienced that sense of disconnection. I definitely had a split life. I didn’t plan it that way. I didn't connect with my work colleagues outside of work and they didn’t really know about my personal life. My friends didn’t really know a lot about what I did professionally.”
That’s when Kristen discovered coaching as a new way to apply her skills and integrate her life while helping other people integrate their lives as well.
“We want you to be a whole person. We want you to bring your strengths and your talents. We want to hear your true voice.”

St. Louis, MO – Percy Menzies is a respected and sought after speaker and President and founder of Assisted Recovery Centers of America one of the top centers in the country for the treatment of alcoholism and drug addiction.
According to Percy, our health care system continues to be sluggish in effectively responding to addictions and we must ramp up ongoing efforts to treat addiction as a prolonged, but absolutely curable, condition.
“Addiction throws people into a survival mode and human beings are meant to thrive not survive, which is a dangerous state to be in and not a sustainable way to live,” says Percy.
Prior to opening up his own treatment center, Percy worked for over 18 years for DuPont Pharmaceuticals where he recognized how naloxone and naltrexone, largely underused at the time, had a tremendous potential as key medications to battle the opioid and alcoholism addiction.
Part of Percy’s success is based on the meds he offers such as buprenorphine and naltrexone which protects patients and curbs craving for drugs and alchohol. The key, he emphasizes, to treating addictive disorders, is that patients must stay on meds indefinitely. Once you successfully curve their craving and their withdrawal systems they will get better.
Through Assisted Recovery Centers of America, Percy creates a purpose driven atmosphere to protect the patient living in drug infested environment be encouraged to seek self-care. With so many drugs continuing to come in it’s troubling that we have a supply driven problem and Percy emphasizes we must curve the supply and demand and make certain the demand is gone.

So she started educating myself through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, as well as the Institute for Functional Medicine and the School of Applied Functional Medicine.
Today, Dr. Patterson is bridging the gap between conventional and alternative health.
Dr. Patterson works primarily with busy, stressed-out moms of multiple children in high-performing professional careers, with a special focus on fertility.
From a functional perspective, Dr. Patterson believes all health begins in the gut.
“I can trace almost every single dysfunction or disease back to the gut,” says Dr. Patterson. “It's the modern stresses that we have. It's the unhealthy foods that we're eating. It's the toxins that were exposed to. By focusing on imbalances in their body, and making lifestyle changes and nutritional changes, we can bring ourselves back to optimal health.”

Springfield, MO – Amy Anfinson is a positive change coach who has spent the last few decades searching for answers to the problems that have troubled humanity and uncovered the secrets that so many successful people are using to live out their biggest dreams.
From an outsider’s perspective, it seemed like Amy had the world at her fingertips. Happily married with two wonderful children, going on lavish vacations, owning a beautiful home, and having a successful business on the side, but she still felt empty. She knew something was missing in her life.
Through this journey of self-discovery, she uncovered truths about herself, the world, and the laws of the Universe that changed her life forever.
Her gentle, yet powerful approach to life has helped her clients achieve what they thought was impossible. From attracting financial freedom, dream homes, and harmonious relationships, to recovering from past trauma, physical ailments, and addiction, there is no limit to what she can help people experience, if they’re ready to take that next step.
Amy says, “When we learn how to understand our emotions, work with our own energy, and move within the laws of the Universe, we experience the abundance, liberation, and heaven that is already here on Earth.”
Using her unique gifts, she intuitively brings the subconscious thoughts that keep us stuck in fear or self-sabotage to light and holds the space for her clients to release their resistance, feel worthy of what their heart desires, and open up to a greater perspective of what’s possible.

Morgantown, WV – Disaster can strike at any moment. Do you know what to do in an emergency situation?
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Jeanie Edwards is the founder of The CPR Gals, specializing in disaster preparedness education and first-aid training.
“The question is not if something is going to happen, but rather when,” says Jeanie. “Once you accept that, you can start preparing for the inevitable. With training, you will feel a whole lot more comfortable and confident because you can handle pretty much anything that gets thrown at you.”
The CPR Gals teach people how to help save lives, offering classes in CPR and First Aid classes so people can be prepared and confident enough to act until uniformed first responders arrive.
“Keep the patient calm, make sure 911 has been called, and begin administering CPR because every second counts,” says Jeanie. “CPR is cardio pulmonary resuscitation. When the body stops breathing, and you can no longer feel a pulse, you need to take over the body’s job: breathing and pumping the heart to keep the vital organs alive until advanced medical care can begin.”
Jeanie was inspired by her grandparents, who were British Red Cross in the 1920s. Jeanie herself has been a volunteer with the American Red Cross since 1968 and an EMT for 20 years.
“I’m most proud of knowing that I have made a difference in people's lives,” says Jeanie. “There is a ripple effect.”

Long Island City, NY – Maureen Santora has been a powerful advocate for education her entire life. The Christopher Santora Educational Scholarship Fund has awarded more than half a million dollars in scholarships to New York City’s elementary, middle school and high school students.
“I see everything in terms of: “How are we going to teach our children to become responsible accountable adults?” says Santora. “Teachers, students and parents form a trinity. They are partners in the development of a human being. They have to work in tandem to create a wonderful person. My philosophy is that all of us can be teachers.”
Maureen has been in teaching since 1967, but she says parents are still the primary educators of their children. She says parents have the right to be involved and to empower themselves to be actively involved in their kids' education.
“The core problem right now is a school districts, principals and administrators, don't believe parents have the right to ask questions,” says Santora, “but they're our children, and we are ultimately responsible for them. That’s where the parent voice can be loudest. The bottom line is that parents have a lot of power, and more and more are speaking out, but we need to have a real movement.”
“As a child, the most important person in your life besides your mom and dad is your teacher,” says Santora. “When they can have a constructive dialogue with each other, when they can be on the same page, it doesn't matter who has more power.”

Petaluma, CA – When people fly an airplane for the first time, they get hooked, and Bert Botta got hooked.
Bert got his start in commercial aviation, after a tour in the Navy, as a pilot flying for TWA, during what he describes as the “glory days of Aviation.”
After retiring from TWA he went to work for NetJets, where he spent nine years flying high-end clients as a Gulfstream Corporate Jet Captain. He recently retired from NetJets to concentrate on his Expert Witness and Aviation Writing careers.
Today, he brings his 35 years and 16,000 hours of flight experience to the legal field as an Aviation Expert Witness and Writer.
As an Aviation Expert, Bert combines his background as a pilot with his training as a Licensed Professional Counselor. This gives him a unique perspective when the emotional fitness of someone is in question; this is in addition to other human factors related to an aircraft accident or incident.
His aviation areas of expertise include pilot and flight crew human factors, emotional and psychological effects on pilot judgment, pilot behavior analysis, accident analysis, with a specialty focus on the emotional fitness of individuals, pilot error, adherence to pilot professional standards, flight crew performance, pilot complacency and fatigue, aviation emotional intelligence, in-flight safety and cockpit behavior.
As for the future, Bert says he looks forward to working on more cases and growing through the process, especially when he can help in bringing emotional closure and healing to people in cases that have tragically impacted them.

Menifee, CA – Kimberly Wagenmakers is a Psychic Medium Empath and Healer that helps rescue, restore and balance energy for Harmony.
Kimberly says she knew from a very young age that she was different. She could hear spirits, but she tried to hide her gifts and suppress them. Her devotion to being a psychic medium began after the loss of her son.
“He was my home. He was my family. We had an incredible connection,” recalls Kimberly. “I knew I had gifts my whole life. When I let him go, everything I'd been holding back flooded open. I thought, ‘I'm going to be me from now on. This is what he would want. This was his purpose.’”
Today, Kimberly communicates with spirits in transition after their passing. She is certified through renowned psychic Lisa Williams’s mediumship mentorship certification program.
Through her abilities, Kimberly has helped many people recover from their loss and brokenheartedness.
“I'm very empathic, and sensitive. I genuinely care,” says Kimberly. “So when people come to me and they're broken, there's nothing better than making them feel good. I’m changing their whole dynamic from sadness, grief and anger to calm and peace and confidence.”
Kimberly says she is most grateful for the trust her clients place in her.
“It is rewarding, because I know that I've helped somebody. It's just such a gift,” says Kimberly. “Spirit will always take care of me for doing a good job.”

Dobbs Ferry, NY – We are all given a superpower, and we must leverage our superpower to add value to the world.
Patty Franco is an executive coach and the founder of Patty Franco Coaching, where she works with leaders in both entrepreneurial roles and corporate roles to go from surviving to thriving and navigate their career with more ease.
Patty spent the first 15 years of her career in HR working for Fortune 500 companies. She could have stayed on that path, but the longer she stayed, the more she saw the limitations to her happiness.
And so Patty became the owner of a massage therapy franchise location in New York, but that brought its own challenges.
“I was working seven days a week, 12 hours a day with two small children at the time, and at one point, we were not making any revenue at all,” recalls Patty. “It was very challenging from a physical and mental standpoint. I felt like I wasn't adding value to my family. In hindsight, I wish I had access to the tools I now use with my clients.”
Still, Patty says the experience was the equivalent of earning a master’s degree in business. Patty learned marketing, sales, recruitment, staffing and payroll. Patty also worked with a coach to figure out how to pivot in her career.
“My coach helped me realize that throughout all of my roles what I loved most was coaching and training and mentoring,” says Patty. “This is my superpower: helping people grow and develop and see their blind spots.”
Patty’s niche is executives who are also parents. She helps them build self-awareness and leverage their strengths for overall success.

St. Louis, MO – Percy Menzies is a respected and sought after speaker and President and founder of Assisted Recovery Centers of America one of the top centers in the country for the treatment of alcoholism and drug addiction.
According to Percy, our health care system continues to be sluggish in effectively responding to addictions and we must ramp up ongoing efforts to treat addiction as a prolonged, but absolutely curable, condition.
“Addiction throws people into a survival mode and human beings are meant to thrive not survive, which is a dangerous state to be in and not a sustainable way to live,” says Percy.
Prior to opening up his own treatment center, Percy worked for over 18 years for DuPont Pharmaceuticals where he recognized how naloxone and naltrexone, largely underused at the time, had a tremendous potential as key medications to battle the opioid and alcoholism addiction.
Part of Percy’s success is based on the meds he offers such as buprenorphine and naltrexone which protects patients and curbs craving for drugs and alchohol. The key, he emphasizes, to treating addictive disorders, is that patients must stay on meds indefinitely. Once you successfully curve their craving and their withdrawal systems they will get better.
Through Assisted Recovery Centers of America, Percy creates a purpose driven atmosphere to protect the patient living in drug infested environment be encouraged to seek self-care. With so many drugs continuing to come in it’s troubling that we have a supply driven problem and Percy emphasizes we must curve the supply and demand and make certain the demand is gone.

Waterloo, Ontario – Jan Yordy is the founder of Waterloo Brain Connections, where she specializes in NeurOptimal®, a neurofeedback system designed to help your nervous system become more flexible and resilient.
According to Jan, we have to train our brain like we train our muscles. NeurOptimal® is a non-invasive way of addressing our hidden beliefs that allows us to make changes without getting stuck in old patterns and reactions.
Traditional linear neurofeedback systems only work with the conscious mind, but the conscious mind is only a very small percentage of the whole activity of the brain. NeurOptimal® is unique in that it is the only neurofeedback system that works in a non-linear, dynamical way; it works with the whole brain, not just the conscious mind.
Jan compares NeurOptimal® to holding up a mirror to our nervous system so it is informed about what it is doing.
Jan was a therapist for over twenty-five years and has used NeurOptimal for over fourteen of those years. On January first of this year she launched Waterloo Brain Connections and decided to focus exclusively on NeurOptimal®..
“I've always been fascinated with the brain and energy,” recalls Jan. “For many years I was using NeurOptimal® with most of my therapy clients.”
Not only does Jan see clients in person at her location in Waterloo, but she also rents out neurofeedback systems, assists in the sale of systems and teaches NeurOptimal® certification classes for those who want a more in depth understanding of NeurOptimal® and how it works.

Bridgewater, NJ – They say in many professions you have to be a jack of all trades and a master of none, but in the field of Emergency Medicine, doctors have to do their best to be a master of all.
Emergency medicine is by its nature unscheduled care. Most first presentations of anything emergent or urgent, like a heart attack, stroke or severe abdominal pain, are typically first examined by an emergency medicine doctor in the sometimes frenzied location of a hospital Emergency Department.
Due to the unselected nature of patients and the limited time that can be spent with patients, many factors not under a physician’s control can affect the attitudes and even the clinical outcomes of patients.
It’s no wonder the majority of emergency physicians have been named in a claim for malpractice at least once.
Dr. Edward Gosselin is a board-certified residency trained Emergency Medicine physician, a graduate of Boston University School of Medicine and the founder of EMG Consulting & Contracting LLC. He has several decades of practice both clinically as well as administratively. He has been an Emergency Department director for 3 separate facilities. He also provides litigation support services and expert witness investigation and testimony in the field of Emergency Medicine for Consultations, Affidavits of Merit, depositions and trials.
To become an expert witness, you have to be an expert, and Dr. Gosselin has spent more than 30 years in emergency medicine and continues to practice.
“It's very hard to both be an expert witness in this field unless you continue to practice,” says Dr. Gosselin. “I have seen some doctors attempt to do this work soon after their residency, and although they may be board-certified with the full complement of education, they may not necessarily have the expertise or nuanced experience.”

Mundelein, IL - Susan Finerty is the founder and CEO of Finerty Consulting, author of three highly acclaimed books: Master the Matrix: 7 Essentials for Getting Things Done in Complex Organizations; Cross-Functional Influence: Getting Things Done Across the Organization and The Cross-Functional Influence Playbook. She and her team help clients maximize their expertise.
Finerty Consulting offers keynotes, workshops, coaching and assessments. Their approach is steeped in the research that is the foundation of her books , and tailored to their client organizations’ culture and needs.
“We believe strongly in the power of people coming together to learn and solve problems simultaneously. There is great power in learning together, because you can’t learn to tackle—let alone actually tackle--our complex organizational issues in isolation. When we are connected and working in the collective, it is amazing what we can achieve.”
Susan acknowledges that these connections aren’t easy to establish and maintain in our global, virtual work environments.
“At work, we are missing the three typical ingredients for solid relationships—proximity, chemistry and time. We don’t run into each other in the hall, we may not have commonalities that drive natural chemistry, and we don’t have the luxury of building relationships over time.”
“The most satisfied and successful people I work with have channeled the power of connection and curiosity,” Finerty says.
Susan is also excited to announce the new edition of her book Master the Matrix: 7 Essentials for Getting Things Done in Complex Organizations.

Thillen Education Foundation has partnered with Greene College and Career Academy to deliver an innovative, coaching, scholarship and financial assistance initiative that will enrich the lives of thousands of students for years to come.
“I'm driven by a passion to help kids,” says Thillen.
“I grew up in poverty, but I went on to receive a master's degree in math,” recalls Thillen. “When I retired from IBM 24 years ago, I volunteered for Habitat for Humanity building houses. After two years, I asked, “How can I do more to help the kids that live in these Habitat for Humanity houses?’ so I started installing refurbished computers donated by the community and coached the kids who lived in the houses. Almost all of them graduated high school and many of them went on to college.”
Now in its fourth year, Thillen Education Foundation has 120 volunteer career coaches from the community.
Students also have the opportunity to earn “Dave Dollars,” which they can cash in for real dollars upon graduation.
“We put together what I call ‘the promise,” says Thillen. “If you continue your education, start your career or join the military, we promise you financial assistance to get started.”

St. Louis, MO – Percy Menzies is a respected and sought after speaker and President and founder of Assisted Recovery Centers of America one of the top centers in the country for the treatment of alcoholism and drug addiction.
According to Percy, our health care system continues to be sluggish in effectively responding to addictions and we must ramp up ongoing efforts to treat addiction as a prolonged, but absolutely curable, condition.
“Addiction throws people into a survival mode and human beings are meant to thrive not survive, which is a dangerous state to be in and not a sustainable way to live,” says Percy.
Prior to opening up his own treatment center, Percy worked for over 18 years for DuPont Pharmaceuticals where he recognized how naloxone and naltrexone, largely underused at the time, had a tremendous potential as key medications to battle the opioid and alcoholism addiction.
Part of Percy’s success is based on the meds he offers such as buprenorphine and naltrexone which protects patients and curbs craving for drugs and alchohol. The key, he emphasizes, to treating addictive disorders, is that patients must stay on meds indefinitely. Once you successfully curve their craving and their withdrawal systems they will get better.
Through Assisted Recovery Centers of America, Percy creates a purpose driven atmosphere to protect the patient living in drug infested environment be encouraged to seek self-care. With so many drugs continuing to come in it’s troubling that we have a supply driven problem and Percy emphasizes we must curve the supply and demand and make certain the demand is gone.

Southborough, MA – Anesthesiologists are often faced with patients suffering from severe or significant pain following surgery.
As a result, they possess the most comprehensive understanding of the neuroanatomy of pain pathways in the body, with the most experience using medications and nerve blocks to treat pain.
That’s why anesthesiology and pain management go hand-in-hand.
Dr. Thomas Simopoulos is anesthesiologist and pain management specialist at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center.
In addition to his work as a pain management specialist, Dr. Simopoulos is also an expert witness, offering litigation support services to attorneys of both plaintiffs and defendants for 15 years.
“Expert witness work found me rather than I found it,” laughs Dr. Simopoulos. “What I like about the expert witness work is I just have to stay within the facts and the evidence.”
So while most of cases are standard chart reviews, there are cases that require Dr. Simopoulos to perform his own medical examination. These cases are typically complex nerve injury cases that may develop into chronic pain syndromes that at times may be diagnosed correctly or incorrectly and are difficult to treat or resolve.
“In the legal system, nerve injury related pains and chronic pains are tough to define. This creates a lot of challenges in our system. I come in as an as an expert witness to shed some light and create a direction,” says Dr. Simopoulos. “Sometimes we reach maximum medical improvement. That may not be satisfactory for either the patient or the employer, but some patients never improved adequately with their chronic pain condition.”

Reno, NV – Osteoporosis means bones become more fragile due to structural bone loss from aging. Bones become porous so they don't have the structural integrity they once had.
According to board-certified and fellowship-trained orthopedic physician Dr. John V. Foley, osteoporosis is a nationwide epidemic, and the problem is only getting worse.
One half of the women in the US will experience a fragility fracture at some point in their life, and the risk factors for men aren’t much better. As the baby boomer generation continues to age, Dr. Foley expects we will see more and more fractures.
“In my 30 years doing orthopedics, it's still a whisper and not a scream,” says Dr. Foley. “I see billions of dollars being spent treating fractures instead of preventing them unless we have a national wake up call.”
One of the main problems for preventing osteoporosis, says Dr. Foley, is that osteoporosis is a silent disease: you do not know you have it until you fracture a bone.
“Unless you kind of stir the pot with your doctor, you won't know you're at risk,” says Dr. Foley, “but there are ways to diagnose your bone health.”
“There is a low dose radiologic study called a DEXA scan that assesses your bone health and the structural integrity of the bone,” says Dr. Foley.
“We start very simply with lifestyle changes like not smoking, not drinking to excess, resistive bone weight bearing exercises to maintain current bone health. We also worry about fall risk, and we talk a lot about fall prevention.”

Stuttgart, Germany – When it comes to psychics, it's hard to know who is real and who is a fake.
Lisa Lanno is a psychic medium, "Seer” and paranormal researcher offering life path guidance, healing from past life trauma, connection with your guides, increased intuition and paranormal research.
Still, she says her favorite thing to do is spotting and busting fake psychics.
“This work is all about helping people, and I can help and guide the average person not to get taken advantage of by fakes,” says Lisa.
This is really useful information for people to know.
“If you go to someone for a reading, and they say they see negativity around you, or they try to sell you candles, I hope to God you walk out,” says Lisa. “I tell people to beware of generalities, pushing things on you, telling you that you are cursed, or you have to buy crystals from me or nothing good will happen, or they end the session on a cliffhanger.”
All mediums are psychic, but not all psychics are mediums, explains Lisa.
While mediumship is about communicating with the deceased, psychic work is more focused on your potential future: When am I going to meet somebody in my life? Where did my parents stash the money? Where do you see me in five years for work?
“If you ask me about your future, I tune into you your energy,” says Lisa. “It's validations as well as predictions, and the predictions are only going to happen, if you want them to.”
“If I say I see you with four children, that just means there are four entities that would like to have you as a mom. It doesn’t mean you have to have four children,” says Lisa. “It's still your life. Psychic work allows people to see the choices before them.”

Toronto, ON – The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the trajectory of all of our lives, and the impact of these changes will be felt for decades to come.
We had no choice but to navigate our way through it best we could together. Some of the rapid adjustments were more successful than others: the healthcare sector adapted very quickly; education for millions of children was irreversibly disrupted.
Whatever our world will look like after the pandemic is finally over will be determined by organizations and institutions committed to change and willing to take the lead.
Being involved in community organizations and giving back has always been a big part of Dr. Dan Andreae’s life.
An expert in leadership, education, health, neuroscience and philanthropy, Dr. Andreae describes himself as an academic-practitioner, or a “pracademic.” Pracademics focus on translating concepts into real action that makes a difference in people's everyday lives.
“Imagine a plane: one wing is the theory and developing critical thinking skills; but the plane won’t fly without the second wing: the human side,” explains Dr. Andreae. “Things are not isolated. Everything revolves around the human element. The pracademic asks, “What can we do about it?”
Dr. Andreae has devoted significant energies over his career to educating about health issues from a broad perspective including stress and neuroscience. He sees his role as strengthening partnerships between organizations to ensure the road back is navigable and smooth.
“The circumstances have changed through COVID, but I think my philosophy has actually been reinforced,” says Dr. Andreae.
San Tan Valley, AZ – Judy Holt is an intuitive health guide specializing in the Emotion Code and Body Code, energy healing modalities designed to release trapped negative emotions from the physical body.
“The Emotion Code and Body Code instructional program teaches you techniques to use with a knowledge based guide when investigating a person's symptoms or concerns,” says Judy. “By identifying the root causes, I can remove or release the specific negative energy that's causing the issues both emotionally and physically in a person's body.”
According to Dr. Bradley Nelson, creator of the Emotion Code and The Body Code, there are 60 common trapped emotions. Trapped emotions can build up inside over time through our experience in this life or they can be inherited from previous generations.
Using the Emotion Code and the Body Code, Judy receives messages if her client has a trapped emotion and releases it. Releasing trapped emotions makes conditions right for the body to heal physically. Emotional difficulties often disappear or become much easier to deal with.
Prior to becoming a Intuitive Health guide, Judy spent 40 years in elementary education as a classroom teacher and a PE teacher.
As a teacher, Judy said her job was to teach her student's skills, nurture their self-esteem and encourage them to always do their best. She says it’s not that different from the work she does today: helping clients along their journey by teaching them how to succeed and developing their spirit in a positive way.”
“I want to help people identify their purpose or directional path,” says Judy.

Richmond, VA – When a case contains digital evidence, it requires testimony to clarify what evidence was found and how it was found.
Digital forensic investigators collect and analyze digital evidence, including everything from text messages, pictures, email and web history to document metadata that may be relevant in civil or criminal cases.
Patrick Siewert is the founder of Pro Digital Forensic Consulting, a one-stop shop for electronic evidence collection, analysis and expert witness testimony in support of litigation and investigations at the governmental, corporate and private levels.
Siewert began his career in law enforcement in 2000 at the patrol level in Richmond, VA. He later transitioned to serving as a school resource officer in both middle schools and high schools to bridge the gap between law enforcement and the community.
It was in this role that Siewert was introduced to the Southern Virginia Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force, where he learned how to conduct online undercover investigations.
“ICAC is responsible for tracking down online sexual predators of children and purveyors of child sexual abuse material on the internet,” says Siewert.
Siewert left law enforcement in 2014 to launch Pro Digital Forensic Consulting full-time.
Combining best practices in forensic methodology with the most modern investigative techniques, today, Pro Digital Forensic Consulting offers a 360-degree litigation support approach, with highly-trained forensic examiners to conduct the analysis, report findings and testify as expert witnesses as needed.

Prior to embracing her psychic abilities, Lisa was a pharmacist.

As Lisa progressed further in her pharmacy career, a level of dissatisfaction crept up, and she started to have physical problems as well. So Lisa began to explore alternative therapies, which resurfaced her psychic abilities.

Long Island City, NY – Maureen Santora has been a powerful advocate for education her entire life. The Christopher Santora Educational Scholarship Fund has awarded more than half a million dollars in scholarships to New York City’s elementary, middle school and high school students.
“I see everything in terms of: “How are we going to teach our children to become responsible accountable adults?” says Santora. “Teachers, students and parents form a trinity. They are partners in the development of a human being. They have to work in tandem to create a wonderful person. My philosophy is that all of us can be teachers.”
Maureen has been in teaching since 1967, but she says parents are still the primary educators of their children. She says parents have the right to be involved and to empower themselves to be actively involved in their kids' education.
“The core problem right now is a school districts, principals and administrators, don't believe parents have the right to ask questions,” says Santora, “but they're our children, and we are ultimately responsible for them. That’s where the parent voice can be loudest. The bottom line is that parents have a lot of power, and more and more are speaking out, but we need to have a real movement.”
“As a child, the most important person in your life besides your mom and dad is your teacher,” says Santora. “When they can have a constructive dialogue with each other, when they can be on the same page, it doesn't matter who has more power.”

Los Angeles, CA – From incarceration and financial ruin to cancer and divorce, Rhonda Farrah emerged empowered.
“I made some very poor choices with people who were not reputable, and I did not do my due diligence. I take total responsibility for that,” recalls Rhonda. “I missed every holiday with my daughter and my family for six years, but I needed to be incarcerated in order to be liberated, to regain my sense of self.”
While incarcerated, Rhonda became an advocate and teacher for her fellow women inmates to make some Life changes…and truly Live the best Life they could regardless of their circumstances. What followed was a journey of transformation.
“I realized that the only person I could take responsibility for was myself. That’s when I began the journey of helping people help themselves,” recalls Rhonda. “I was coaching women to lead a better life and understand the strength within to help themselves.”
With a background in psychotherapy, Rhonda began coaching upon her release in 2005.
“I was in a prison physically, but many people are in prison mentally, spiritually, emotionally,” says Rhonda. “It’s my life goal to help others conquer their most negative habits and build new, healthy and successful lives for themselves based on their needs and desires.”

Mundelein, IL - Susan Finerty is the founder and CEO of Finerty Consulting, author of three highly acclaimed books: Master the Matrix: 7 Essentials for Getting Things Done in Complex Organizations; Cross-Functional Influence: Getting Things Done Across the Organization and The Cross-Functional Influence Playbook. She and her team help clients maximize their expertise.
Finerty Consulting offers keynotes, workshops, coaching and assessments. Their approach is steeped in the research that is the foundation of her books , and tailored to their client organizations’ culture and needs.
“We believe strongly in the power of people coming together to learn and solve problems simultaneously. There is great power in learning together, because you can’t learn to tackle—let alone actually tackle--our complex organizational issues in isolation. When we are connected and working in the collective, it is amazing what we can achieve.”
Susan acknowledges that these connections aren’t easy to establish and maintain in our global, virtual work environments.
“At work, we are missing the three typical ingredients for solid relationships—proximity, chemistry and time. We don’t run into each other in the hall, we may not have commonalities that drive natural chemistry, and we don’t have the luxury of building relationships over time.”
“The most satisfied and successful people I work with have channeled the power of connection and curiosity,” Finerty says.
Susan is also excited to announce the new edition of her book Master the Matrix: 7 Essentials for Getting Things Done in Complex Organizations.

Long Island City, NY – In our society today, everything is divided in into right and left politics. It's very difficult to have conversations with people who are on the opposite side of the political divide, even people that you love.
Education advocate Maureen Santora believes we need to rethink where we are heading and how the conversation is evolving for young people to be successful in life.
She has been a powerful advocate for education her entire life. The Christopher Santora Educational Scholarship Fund has awarded more than half a million dollars in scholarships to New York City’s elementary, middle school and high school students.
“Being an American was always about being concerned for the next generation,” says Maureen. “We're trying to educate young people to know they can pursue a variety of possibilities.”
“When we had dinner every night, we would have debates. My son was always on the opposite side of his sisters,” recalls Maureen. “The reason a person goes to college is to open his or her mind. It doesn't necessarily give you a job. It enables you to see a different vision, and things that you've never, ever thought about.”
Maureen has been in teaching since 1967, but she says parents are still the primary educators of their children. They have the right to be involved and to empower themselves to be actively involved in their kids' education.
“We have to be brave enough to speak out, even if the opinion that we possess is not the popular opinion.”

Washington, DC – Dr. Philip Cross is the founder of Kenyon Consulting LLC, where he provides economic and statistical consulting services to law firms, businesses, non-profits and government agencies.
Dr. Cross specializes in econometrics, which combines statistical analysis with economic theory to draw inferences about economic outcomes. Dr. Cross has worked on a wide range of litigation matters both on the plaintiff side and the defense side. He says both sides are happy to retain him because they know he will deliver unbiased, scientifically-grounded economic and statistical analysis.
Unlike the economists one might see on cable news, who are typically macroeconomists, Dr. Cross is a microeconomist; he doesn’t study the economics of large entities like countries, but rather the economics of small entities, like workers or customers or firms.
In a wrongful termination lawsuit, for instance, Dr. Cross’s job is to calculate how the worker’s future wages are impacted by the alleged wrongful termination.
Originally from Australia, Dr. Cross has spent 20 years as an economist in academia, government and consulting.
Prior to launching Kenyon Consulting, Dr. Cross taught in the Economics Department at Georgetown University..
“Some of the analysis that I do can be a little bit high tech, and one of the skills of being an expert witness is breaking down technical concepts in a way that a lay audience can understand,” says Dr. Cross. “So when I testify in front of a judge or a jury, I draw on my experience teaching college students, finding the right level of detail to explain what I'm saying in a way for to understand.”

Lexington, MA – Successful leaders recognize there are many unknowns, and each level of leadership is a new paradigm, a new chapter they will have to engage with and master.
Beth Masterman is the founder of Masterman Executive Coaching, where she works with C-suite leaders, as well as emerging leaders and managers, to help them find the clarity and confidence they need to succeed.
“No matter what my client brings into the room, we always consider, “How does that affect you at work?” says Masterman. “I help people unbundle the issues that are impeding their flow.”

Long Island City, NY – In our society today, everything is divided in into right and left politics. It's very difficult to have conversations with people who are on the opposite side of the political divide, even people that you love.
Education advocate Maureen Santora believes we need to rethink where we are heading and how the conversation is evolving for young people to be successful in life.
She has been a powerful advocate for education her entire life. The Christopher Santora Educational Scholarship Fund has awarded more than half a million dollars in scholarships to New York City’s elementary, middle school and high school students.
“Being an American was always about being concerned for the next generation,” says Maureen. “We're trying to educate young people to know they can pursue a variety of possibilities.”
“When we had dinner every night, we would have debates. My son was always on the opposite side of his sisters,” recalls Maureen. “The reason a person goes to college is to open his or her mind. It doesn't necessarily give you a job. It enables you to see a different vision, and things that you've never, ever thought about.”
Maureen has been in teaching since 1967, but she says parents are still the primary educators of their children. They have the right to be involved and to empower themselves to be actively involved in their kids' education.

Washington, DC – Dr. Philip Cross is the founder of Kenyon Consulting LLC, where he provides economic and statistical consulting services to law firms, businesses, non-profits and government agencies.
Dr. Cross specializes in econometrics, which combines statistical analysis with economic theory to draw inferences about economic outcomes. Dr. Cross has worked on a wide range of litigation matters both on the plaintiff side and the defense side. He says both sides are happy to retain him because they know he will deliver unbiased, scientifically-grounded economic and statistical analysis.
Unlike the economists one might see on cable news, who are typically macroeconomists, Dr. Cross is a microeconomist; he doesn’t study the economics of large entities like countries, but rather the economics of small entities, like workers or customers or firms.
In a wrongful termination lawsuit, for instance, Dr. Cross’s job is to calculate how the worker’s future wages are impacted by the alleged wrongful termination.
Originally from Australia, Dr. Cross has spent 20 years as an economist in academia, government and consulting.
Prior to launching Kenyon Consulting, Dr. Cross taught in the Economics Department at Georgetown University..
“Some of the analysis that I do can be a little bit high tech, and one of the skills of being an expert witness is breaking down technical concepts in a way that a lay audience can understand,” says Dr. Cross. “So when I testify in front of a judge or a jury, I draw on my experience teaching college students, finding the right level of detail to explain what I'm saying in a way for to understand.”

Sparks, NV – John Haut is a financial and accounting consultant and expert witness with 20 years of experience with working with major firms on high-stakes matters.
Prior to launching his consultancy, John spent over 20 years at Charles River Associates and Compass Lexecon. Today, he brings big firm experience with small firm prices.
John operates at the intersection of law and accounting, but to call him a forensic accountant understates his capabilities. He has done forensic tracing, but he can do far more.
Unlike most CPAs, John can understand both financial and legal aspects of the case, and tailor his analysis to address issues without improperly rendering legal conclusions.
John’s specialties include business valuation, economic damages, securities litigation and shareholder appraisal actions.
In college, John majored in business administration with a concentration finance, which included the full complement of accounting courses. He received his MBA, passed the CPA exam, then attended law school at UCLA to become an attorney.
“That's where I really got into litigation support,” recalls John. “Although I like the law, I love working with numbers. I love to perform analyses, supervise cases, draft expert reports, and create demonstratives for depositions and trial. I’m most proud when my clients are able to resolve the situation favorably without requiring additional testimony and additional cost to their clients.”

Chicago, IL – Post-traumatic stress disorder is typically associated with veterans who have experienced the trauma of war, but PTSD can develop from many different sources. PTSD has been referred to as a disorder, yet many claim it is an injury. Stella and others have suggested a new term – Post Traumatic Stress Injury (PSTI) – in place of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
When we experience trauma, our brain’s fight-or-flight response becomes stuck in high gear. This may cause an injury to the brain, resulting in the symptoms of trauma like hypervigilance, insomnia and irritability.
Dr. Jason Brajer is a board-certified clinical anesthesiologist and interventional pain management specialist with the Stella Center, where he administers a fast, effective, and lasting treatment for the symptoms of emotional trauma: the Stellate Ganglion Block.
The Stellate Ganglion Block is an injection of a local anesthetic into the stellate ganglion, a nerve bundle in the neck, to suppress the fight-or-flight reflex. The SGB resets spinal cord pathways to the brain and the patient experiences an almost immediate sense of calm. The procedure has been shown to provide relief from symptoms like continual sleep disturbance, surges of anxiety and irritability, hypervigilance, difficulties concentrating and jumpiness.
With the SGB, a patient’s trauma no longer needs to be part of their everyday life. It doesn't mean the trauma is not still lingering there—patients should continue to see their mental health provider—but more than 80 percent of Stella patients have found relief from their trauma symptoms.
“I've been doing pain management for 25 years and I'm most proud of how many people I've helped,” says Dr. Brajer.

El Segundo, CA – When you buy an insurance policy, you hope you never have to use it. As a result, you don't really know if you bought a good policy until you need it.
The truth, according to Frederick Fisher, is that as much as you may expect your insurance agent or broker to advise you and make recommendations, their obligation is only to obtain the coverage a consumer requests.
Frederick Fisher is a professional liability specialist, risk management consultant and the founder of Fisher Consulting Group, where he provides specialty lines of insurance-related consulting services, including expert witness services, litigation strategies and support and claim prevention.
Fisher has spent decades in the insurance industry. He spent the first 20 years of his career as a professional liability claims investigator. Through The Fisher Associates, he provided claims investigation services and resolution services for insurance companies, as well as management consulting, loss control consulting and claims auditing for numerous self-insured and reinsurance clients. Later, as the founder of ELM Insurance Brokers, he provided financial security to his customers.
“I have always been concerned with the financial security of my customer,” says Fisher. “That's how I conducted our business affairs when I ran a claims company and it’s how I ran an insurance brokerage.
“My entire career has been about making sure that the policy provided is what any reasonable person would expect it to cover, whether you are a doctor, lawyer or an architect,” says Fisher.
Today, Fisher provides his expertise to help others provide the same to their clients.

Cincinnati, OH – Dr. Jonathan Gully is a family medicine doctor and expert witness specializing in medical malpractice.
As an expert witness, Dr. Gully’s work relies heavily on reviewing charts
“When you are doing chart analysis for a medical malpractice case, you need to find out exactly what happened, so you have to be a student of history, but it’s mostly a matter of experience,” says Dr. Gully.
According to Dr. Gully, everything comes down to the standard of care. The modern standard is that a doctor must provide “minimally competent care.”
Instead, says Dr. Gully, while diseases sometimes present in a classic way, they often do not, and it can be harder to discern the right course of action.
“When you dissected a frog in high school biology class, they give you a color-coded diagram of what everything is and where it should be, but when you open it up, it doesn't look like that at all. Everything is grey,” says Dr. Gully. “That’s what it's like being a doctor.”
“What I deal with is mostly missed diagnosis,” says Dr. Gully. “You can often be forgiven for missing something once, but the second time, you should have thought more. When I look at charts, a lot of these doctors were a bit lazy in their documentation. You have to show you're thinking about the possibilities.”
A graduate of the University of Cincinnati Medical School, Dr. Gully says what he enjoys most about expert witness work is he gets to use his expertise in a different way.
“I was deposed several years ago, and I really enjoyed the process of being grilled by lawyers,” recalls Dr. Gully.

Oconomowoc, WI – Susan is a well-regarded speaker, leadership advisor, and founder of Backbone Institute working with high performance leaders in the public and private sector, non-profit agencies, and public education. Susan is also the acclaimed author of four books Mom’s Gone Missing: When A Parent’s Changing Life Upends Yours, How to Grow A Backbone: 10 Strategies for Gaining Power and Influence at Work, Of Beauty and Substance: A Backbone Guide for Women, and Life. Be In It.
Before launching her own company, Susan led a turnaround of a private marketing firm in the mid-1990s, which was the practical culmination of years of learning.
When she started her own company, she became instrumental in helping clients learn strategic and marketing planning and professional development. The common thread through all her work was leadership growth. In perhaps an ironic twist of fate, this work fortified her for a more personally grueling chapter of assisting her parents through their battles with Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia.
Several years after her parents' deaths, Susan established monthly online Compassion Chats, which have rapidly become an indispensable resource for caregivers needing guidance with the challenges associated with Alzheimer's and Dementia.
In fact, Susan was inspired to write Mom’s Gone Missing the true story of both her parents' battle with Alzheimer's and dementia. Susan says many of us are unpredictably thrown into caregiver roles without being taught how to cope.
All of Susan’s work is indicative of her passion to help others lead with purpose and intentionality.

Seattle, WA – We live in an engineered world. If someone has an idea, it is up to an engineer to make it a reality. From a building to an airplane, to the shirt on your back, engineers take those desires and figure out how.
Civil engineers design roads and structures. Aeronautical engineers design airplanes. Electrical engineers work with electrical power. Chemical engineers work with chemicals
And mechanical engineers do everything that is left over.
VA:W stands for "Value Added by Werner."
The “Werner” in question is Alan Werner, and the value added is his expertise in engineering, specifically mechanical engineering.
As a mechanical engineering consulting firm, VA:W has performed mechanical design projects relating to equipment installation, process design or support structures. Werner’s experience and skills range from process industry design to product development, and his expertise spans district energy, plant boilers, pulp and paper, gypsum wallboard, cement production, food processing and brewing.
Today, Werner’s clients are typically lawyers and insurance companies. While Werner retired from design eight years ago, he retained his professional engineering license for the credibility it brings him in his current role as an expert witness.
“My job is to take a situation and put it into layman's language and translate the information to the lawyers in a way that they can understand,” says Werner.
“It goes back to the fact that I have skills and experience that I can still apply, and I can bring satisfaction as a result of what I'm doing,” says Werner. “I'm most proud of the results I can deliver for my clients.”

Boulder, CO – The need for forensic engineers has never been greater than it is today. Civil and criminal litigation often rely on forensic engineers and their expert testimony to help resolve cases in the courts.
Forensic engineers apply engineering and scientific principles in legal proceedings to determine why and how something happened. They investigate and analyze complex evidence to help lawyers, judges, and juries understand how technical evidence relates to a case. Forensic engineers also serve as expert witnesses when they provide expert testimony at depositions and trials.
"As a forensic electrical and telecommunications engineer, I consult on civil and criminal cases nationwide," says Mark McFarland. "I provide unbiased, clear, and meaningful explanations. My goal is to inform lawyers, judges, and juries so they have the best information available to make their important decisions."
Mark has contributed to a broad range of cases. Many of the civil cases involve personal injury and product liability arising from problems such as electrocution, faulty electronics, and malfunctioning communication systems. Other types of civil cases Mark has investigated include insurance claims, and license and contract disputes.
Mark has investigated criminal cases involving murder appeal, securities fraud, home invasion, and even sex trafficking. Many of these cases involve cellular and GPS evidence.
Mark aspires to continue to grow his practice, and he is deeply passionate about his work.
"I've been really blessed with some great work experience---industry, government, research, and forensics---and a lot of education."

Gig Harbor, WA – Alayna Hale is an educational consultant, teen mentor, master certified life coach and the founder of Infinite Potential For You, where she engages clients to embrace their unique learning languages for success and happiness.
Alayna launched Infinite Potential For You almost eight years ago after she left the classroom as a teacher.
“There were so many children in my classes who were suffering from anxiety, stress and depression at a very early age, nine and 10 years old,” recalls Alayna. “As a teacher in a classroom of 36 kids, I was unable to reach all of those children in differentiated instructions and strategies to create success for them.”
Alayna says parents usually seek her out when they are at their wit's end and don't know how to support their child’s needs.
“Coaches look at what is happening now in order to create for the future,” says Alayna. “We send them off with the tools to go forth and become successful in their own way.”
Of course, the pressures of academics are oftentimes placed on children by the parents. That’s why Alayna requires parents to also work with her.
As for the future, Alayna says she would like more parents and academic institutions to be aware of what is possible when teaching kids from a place of question and opportunity.
“Part of learning is exploring and making mistakes,” says Alayna. “Our world, especially the classroom, is designed to be right or wrong with expectations of success or failure, but to me, failure is actually one of our greatest assets.”

Washington, DC – The law attempts to make things black and white, but medicine is very gray.
Some people will respond to a drug while others may not respond because everyone’s genetic makeup is very different.
With so many people using different type of drugs, drugs are used, abused and misused.
Forensic pharmacologists take that information into court:
Forensic pharmacology is the intersection of the applied nature of pharmacology in an everyday setting and the law.
Dr. Robert Copeland PhD chairs the Department of Pharmacology at Howard University’s College of Medicine.
He is an expert on forensic pharmacology and toxicology and serves as an expert witness.
As a forensic pharmacologist, Dr. Copeland’s role is to analyze, assess, review legal cases and help attorneys prepare to cross-examine the expert on the opposite side. Dr. Copeland’s area of expertise includes a broad range of cases such as blood alcohol level (BAL), DUI, adverse drug reactions to medicines, overdose of medicines, drug interactions, and personal injury resulting from an exposure to medicines, effects from drug abuse or industrial chemicals, and induction of cancer by chemicals.
Dr. Copeland says his expert witness work grew out of the work he does at Howard, where he teaches the fundamentals of pharmacology to medical students, dental students, pharmacy students, and graduate students.
Dr. Copeland has been teaching for over 35 years. Whether it’s a college class or a jury, he is always educating people.

Greenville, SC – Deb Bucci is the founder of Life Well Strategies, where she specializes in helping organizations transform workplace culture by offering pathways to increase engagement, improve well-being, and live a healthy rewarding life.
Bucci is a thought leader preparing business for the future of work.
“When employees are engaged, it affects more than just their productivity. It affects their personal health, physical health, mental health,” says Bucci. “When the pandemic first began, employees were more engaged than ever out of fear of losing their jobs, but now engagement has dropped to an all-time low and employee wellbeing with it. The only way that this is going to shift is if we really hear what employees are saying.”
A lifelong nurse, Bucci works in the energy/stress management/well-being niche as a coach/consultant helping organizations provide research-based programs and resources for their people.
“I really believe in the talent of the millennials and Gen Z,” says Bucci. “They are the best and the brightest and the most fearless group of people I've ever had an opportunity to be around.”
Performing well in a business environment requires us to be whole and resilient while engaging with our fullest energy.
“I don't believe in the term work-life balance. I just call it Life,” says Bucci. “Performance is a function of ability X motivation. We can expand our knowledge, but our ability remains fairly stable. The variable in this equation is motivation, and the factors that influence motivation are everything we've been talking about autonomy, flexibility and freedom.”

To present himself as a credible consulting meteorologist, Mogil must demonstrate scientific knowledge, ethics, and communicate information in a way an attorney, a court and a jury can understand it.
“We pride ourselves in being able to take complex weather and related information and translate these into easy-to-understand interpretations, presentations, and visualizations at all legal levels,” says Mogil. “I want to be credible. I want to be honest and forthright and find the truth. If the truth helps my client, that’s great. If my research says they don't have a case, I can tell them that and they respect that.”

Regina, SK – Darci Lang has been a motivational speaker since she was 24 years old.
Born in Biggar, Saskatchewan, a town of 2,600 people, Darci’s mother was only 16, so until she was eight years old, she lived with her father, her first mentor.
“I get my entrepreneurial blood from my dad. He ran a Volkswagen repair shop in the backyard of our home,” recalls Darci. “I grew up working in my dad's garage.”
When Darci was 18, she packed up her Volkswagen Beetle and moved two provinces away to interview for a tuxedo rental company. From the first day she was hired, she sought mentors.
“Every day I had a leadership team of 125 years combined experience. They would all ask me the same question every day: what can I teach you today?” recalls Darci.
Pretty soon, Darci was running the store. At 24, she convinced the eleventh bank she walked into to give her a loan to buy her own store.
She got to know the bank manager really well. In his last year of retirement, he became another mentor for Darci.
Darci has had a 100% referral-based motivational speaking business for 28 years.
Now 52, Darci says her duty is to be a mentor to others, to pay it forward.
It's very hard to see what's good, the 90%’s when you don't feel good. says Darci. ”You need to keep asking the person in the mirror - the only person you can control - “What do you need?” What do you need mentally, physically or spiritually to take care of yourself, so you can focus on what is good? Once you do the difficult job of making yourself happy then you can carry the 90% magnifying glass to work and see your job through a 90% lens.”

Long Island City, NY – In our society today, everything is divided in into right and left politics. It's very difficult to have conversations with people who are on the opposite side of the political divide, even people that you love.
Education advocate Maureen Santora believes we need to rethink where we are heading and how the conversation is evolving for young people to be successful in life.
She has been a powerful advocate for education her entire life. The Christopher Santora Educational Scholarship Fund has awarded more than half a million dollars in scholarships to New York City’s elementary, middle school and high school students.
“Being an American was always about being concerned for the next generation,” says Maureen. “We're trying to educate young people to know they can pursue a variety of possibilities.”
“When we had dinner every night, we would have debates. My son was always on the opposite side of his sisters,” recalls Maureen. “The reason a person goes to college is to open his or her mind. It doesn't necessarily give you a job. It enables you to see a different vision, and things that you've never, ever thought about.”
Maureen has been in teaching since 1967, but she says parents are still the primary educators of their children. They have the right to be involved and to empower themselves to be actively involved in their kids' education.

Delray Beach, FL – Bees don't just make honey. They are critically important to nature, more so than people ever realize. They play a vital role as pollinators, ensuring we have beautiful flowers, fresh fruits and vegetables.
Tragically, bees have been dying worldwide at an unsustainable rate, with serious consequences for our natural world. The number of honey bee hives in the U.S. has decreased from 6 million in the 1940s to only about 2.5 million today.
Nina M. Kelly is the author of HoneyBee TreeHouse, a children's picture book that introduces young readers to the importance of saving the bees, and what they can do to help.
Nina was inspired to write HoneyBee TreeHouse doing what we all did at the beginning of pandemic: walking in nature.
Of course, most children, and even adults, are afraid of bees.
“Truthfully, if you leave bees alone, they will not harm you,” assures Nina. “Bees are much smarter than you think. They are very community minded. They have jobs and they do their job. Writing the book, I learned not to be afraid of them. I love bees!”
HoneyBee TreeHouse has even drawn the attention of the World Bee Project’s founder Sabiha Rumani Malik, who writes, “In this beautiful book children discover wondrous facts about these little creatures who we depend on for most of the food that keeps us healthy.”

Leanne’s own path of personal development started over twenty years prior to opening Unleashed Essentials. As a physiotherapist, Leanne underwent her own struggles physically and mentally. Even within her clinic where she had access to holistic modalities, she wasn’t feeling any better. When her doctor prescribed antidepressants, Leanne knew she had to focus on the conscious creation of her own life. By looking within and realizing she lacked self-love and the right mindset, she began accessing clarity and thinking abundantly. Today she has helped thousands of clients stuck and struggling by getting to the root cause and following her tried and true methods.
Leanne’s unique powerfully effective program is called The Abundant Life Method where she offers two ways to serve people. One is through her wonderful book Fear Unravelled and through her two distinctively effective coaching programs Ignite your Intuition Group and Abundance Accelerator.
“I do this work for selfish reasons because I hope for a better world. By me helping you take care of YOU then you will be contributing to a better world.”

When we learn a new skill or capability, and then that forms the foundation for good, strong, capable leadership to emerge, that is authentic and genuine.”

West Palm Beach, FL – Reinsurance allows multiple insurance companies to share risk by purchasing insurance policies from other insurers to limit their own total loss and protect their surplus.
Dorothy Muir is an accomplished insurance and reinsurance executive with over 30 years of experience handling claims.
“Some of our clients pay us a hundred million for coverage, hoping if they need it, that we are there to assist them in good faith,” says Dorothy. “The biggest part of my job was to make sure that when we dealt with our clients, we dealt with them fairly. If you’re not handling claims properly, that's when you get suits, and it affects everyone's bottom line.”
When insurers do not want to cover claims, even though they should, policyholders will litigate. When they litigate, they need experts to testify as to why a claim should be covered or why not.
Today, Dorothy provides expert witness opinions on insurance, reinsurance and insurance claims handling matters.
“If the claims handlers are not working in good faith and they deny claims that shouldn't be denied, this is where bad faith claims handling comes in and where expert witnesses are needed,” says Dorothy. “As an expert witness, I have to read everything. I have to go back to the insurance contract and the claim file to decide if it should have been covered or not. I submit my opinion to the attorneys who hired me. They may settle. They might decide to go to court. In which case I have to be deposed and testify at trial. So it's an interesting field.”
“You have to be fair in your assessment,” says Dorothy.

Eagle Mountain, UT – New leaders must learn to navigate the waters of middle management, where you have one foot in the field and one foot in corporate. They must shed the thought process of a sole contributor and become more strategic.
Desiree Musselman is a Leadership Development Coach and Trainer and the founder of Desired Effects Coaching, where she works with new and mid-level leaders to enhance their leadership skills and take their businesses from good to great.
I help them create their own motivation, figure out what they wanted to do, where they wanted to go, and learn patience, says Desiree.
Desiree has designed full leadership development programs for existing and upcoming leaders focusing on soft skills, including emotional intelligence, communication skills, team dynamics, and work/life integration.
Desiree was certified as a coach in 2016. At the end of 2019, she left corporate and started coaching on her own.
More recently, Desiree has developed a passion for neuroscience and how it can be incorporated into leadership
“Our brain is fascinating. What we're really trying to do is outsmart it,” says Desiree. “Emotional intelligence is based on understanding how our brain functions and how we intake information and how it passes through our brain. If we can understand how that computer system in our head works, it's a lot easier to understand why challenges are coming up for us and move past them. When I can help my clients understand how their brain works, they can create new neural pathways and get out of those default tendencies.”

Santa Monica, CA – Melanie Klein is an empowerment coach and an expert on Embodied Resilience.
“Embodied Resilience is the gateway,” says Melanie. “It’s the ability to truly have flexibility and bounce back in the midst of challenges. When you have the ability to be adaptable, to be flexible, to bounce back from challenge and adversity, it creates that opening to step into an incredibly empowered state.”
Embodied Resilience, says Melanie, is about stepping into that version of yourself that feels incredibly aligned with your own truth. It's the part of you that feels confident and authentic.
Melanie says the pandemic revealed how much change we need to make to our world. Through Embodied Resilience we have the ability to feel what is happening as it is happening.
“No matter what's happening, there is always constant change occurring,” says Melanie. “Most people either don't notice it or they resist it. So it’s about really pushing people to their boundaries and forcing them to take a look at the fact that we need to be flexible. I'm glad that people are paying attention more. I'm glad that people are engaged more. I'm excited for people to be challenged a little bit in their thinking. If people allow it to be, this can be a really powerful time for everyone. If we begin to focus on purpose and meaning, we recognize we have more choices about how we think feel and do.”
Melanie is the co-editor of the new anthology Embodied Resilience Through Yoga: 30 Mindful Essays About Finding Empowerment After Addiction, Trauma, Grief, and Loss. Her work blends yoga mindfulness and meditation practices.

Paradise, AZ – The hand is the way the body interacts with its environment. As a result, it is the most commonly injured part of the body; people are always putting their fingers where they shouldn't.
A hand surgeon uses one’s hands in the finest, most manipulative way possible.
Dr. Ralph Purcell is an orthopedic surgeon and hand surgeon, who is the founder of the Purcell Orthopedic Institute, where he offers “orthopedic excellence with a personal touch.”
Dr. Purcell has been a practicing physician for over 30 years and has extensive experience in General Orthopedics and Hand Surgery. He is a former Director of Hand Surgery and Attending Orthopedic Surgeon in the Department of Orthopedic Surgery at Columbia University and a former Attending Surgeon at Beth Israel Hospital at Harvard University. He is currently an Attending Orthopedic Surgeon at the HonorHealth hospital system in Scottsdale and Phoenix, AZ.
Dr. Purcell pursued a microsurgery/hand surgery fellowship at New York University, which required an additional year of training following his orthopedic residency.
Unlike almost every other hand surgeon, however, Dr. Purcell never gave up his general orthopedic surgery practice.
By pursuing a career as both a general orthopedist and a hand surgeon, Dr. Purcell is able to provide the necessary overview required for a multi-trauma case, without the need to enlist multiple specialists with their limited focus. This has served him particularly well in his additional career as a medical expert witness.
As an expert witness, Dr. Purcell provides clarity to the most complex general orthopedic and hand issues, including injury causation and extent of impairment.

Corona del Mar, CA – If you exercise or play sports, the older you get, the more your body will begin to break down due to injury, illness and hormonal changes. It begins with inflammation, then muscle fatigue, decreased range of motion, a greater propensity for injuries, invariably leading to chronic pain.
It is possible we could stimulate cell regeneration, tissue repair, enhance blood flow, accelerate metabolism, and relieve pain.
Using the latest advances in LED technology, photobiomodulation or Low Level Light Therapy (LLLT) is a stunning scientific breakthrough that harnesses the natural therapeutic power of light to treat inflammation, wounds, aches and pains, and strengthen your immune system.
Brooke Luciano is the founder of UltraRed Light Therapy, a wellness clinic specializing in pulsed red and near infrared light therapy.
Nicknamed the “Light Ninja Warrior,” Brooke has been using light therapy herself for nearly 20 years. It changed her life so profoundly that she felt compelled to help others through the same approach.
According to Brooke, Ultra Red Light Therapy stimulates healing at a cellular level. Flexible pads of light, with over 1200 LEDs, are positioned on the body and different wavelengths and frequencies are determined for treatment.
The FDA-approved LightMD system we use is the most powerful device on the market. Clients can buy or rent the LightMD device through UltraRed Light Therapy.
Says Brooke: “We are passionate about LightMD and providing it to our community and expanding the community nationwide and around the world.”

Long Island City, NY – In our society today, everything is divided in into right and left politics. It's very difficult to have conversations with people who are on the opposite side of the political divide, even people that you love.
Education advocate Maureen Santora believes we need to rethink where we are heading and how the conversation is evolving for young people to be successful in life.
She has been a powerful advocate for education her entire life. The Christopher Santora Educational Scholarship Fund has awarded more than half a million dollars in scholarships to New York City’s elementary, middle school and high school students.
“Being an American was always about being concerned for the next generation,” says Maureen. “We're trying to educate young people to know they can pursue a variety of possibilities.”
“When we had dinner every night, we would have debates. My son was always on the opposite side of his sisters,” recalls Maureen. “The reason a person goes to college is to open his or her mind. It doesn't necessarily give you a job. It enables you to see a different vision, and things that you've never, ever thought about.”
Maureen has been in teaching since 1967, but she says parents are still the primary educators of their children. They have the right to be involved and to empower themselves to be actively involved in their kids' education.
“We have to be brave enough to speak out, even if the opinion that we possess is not the popular opinion.”

El Segundo, CA – When you buy an insurance policy, you hope you never have to use it. As a result, you don't really know if you bought a good policy until you need it.
The truth, according to Frederick Fisher, is that as much as you may expect your insurance agent or broker to advise you and make recommendations, their obligation is only to obtain the coverage a consumer requests.

“My entire career has been about making sure that the policy provided is what any reasonable person would expect it to cover, whether you are a doctor, lawyer or an architect,” says Fisher.
Today, Fisher provides his expertise to help others provide the same to their clients.

Inverness, IL – Today’s pharmacists have evolved beyond the traditional transactional role of the drug store Rx to become a crucial contributor to the clinical healthcare team.
PharmDs work alongside the clinical team to look at a patient's medications and provide consultation on how to adjust drug dosage. PharmDs observe healthcare in action in real time, learn from it, and provide guidance on how to manage it.
Forensic pharmacy is the intersection of the law and prescribed medication.
A forensic pharmacist can be a valuable resource in legal cases involving medicines and medications. They combine the science of pharmaceutical drug research with criminal justice and legal practice.
Forensic pharmacists may be called upon to testify about the side effects of a drug or perform research to determine the effect that a drug had in a person's death.
Dr. Gourang Patel is the PharmD Expert, a clinical pharmacist in the Intensive Care Unit and Perioperative area, as well as a consultant specializing in the areas of pharmacy, toxicology and pharmacology.
Dr. Patel has served as an expert and consultant in the areas of pharmacy, toxicology and pharmacology, and consults equally for defense and plaintiff.
The foundation of the field is based on the principle of learning, so it is always evolving. It never stops. What are the ramifications of utilizing drug A versus B versus C in the same type of surgery? Is there a safer alternative? Is there a more cost effective alternative? How do these medications interact with other medications?
“It's a deeper dive past what's in a text book.”

South Jordan, UT – Structural and civil engineers are deeply involved in the day-to-day operations of creating and maintaining the built environment in which we all live. Maintaining safe and serviceable infrastructure is a complex process, and things can and do go wrong from time to time. Failure occurs when all or part of the built environment becomes unsafe or unfit. When large-scale structural failure occurs, like the collapse last June of the Champlain Towers South in Miami wherein lives were lost, we question our built environment.
Marcor Platt, a forensic structural engineer, says: “There is a phenomenon I often encounter when I investigate the cause of a failure, which is that there were signs beforehand that failure was likely.
Growing up, Marcor says he loved math, physics, logic, and how these are applied in the physical world. He was also raised on cattle ranches in central Utah and eastern Arizona. He built fences, sheds, and other infrastructure with his father to support the ranching operations. Later, at his own house, he designed and built a swing set and chicken coop with his children.
Today, he lives in Utah and works with Precision Systems Engineering where he specializes in both structural and civil forensic engineering services, structural design, and providing expert testimony regarding many of the facets involved in creating and maintaining our built environment.
“I don't focus on generating a high volume of expert witness work. I will accept a forensic or expert witness study only when I have the resources and expertise to do it very well,” says Marcor.

Bedford, NY – Our brain is our greatest asset and our greatest liability.
Motivation is what gets us to override our primal brain and achieve our dreams.
Anne Reid is here to help you activate your motivation manage your primitive brain.
Coaching helps people access the higher functioning parts of the brain and to recognize when they are reverting back to the part of the brain that will do anything to avoid discomfort. And uncertainty. Anne helps her clients access their choices, recognize their self-defeating patterns, and train their higher-level brain to work for them.
With a strong mix of honesty, encouragement and accountability, Anne focuses on her clients’ top priorities and helps create effective strategies to get them there.
“I’m an accountability partner: I ask hard questions; I call people on their nonsense; and I teach them skills,” says Anne. “My first coach told me, ‘You will find that the people you trust are the people who tell you what you don't want to hear. I believe if people aren't honest with you or think you're not being honest with yourself and don't call you on it, it's really a disservice. This can be done kindly and sternly depending on what style the person needs or can hear. As a coach, I very much try to say things in a way that my client can hear them.”
Anne says she’s most proud when her clients discover their Aha! moment.
“People become more of who they want to be and can be, but may not have believed they could be,” says Anne. “I get to watch them take their first step towards freedom.”

Houston, TX – Everyone’s body is so different and unique. A diet, a workout, a lifestyle that works for someone else may not work for you.
No matter what you are trying to achieve, whether it’s a goal like weight loss, increasing energy levels, overcoming food sensitivities, or reducing symptoms of chronic illness, it is important to recognize what is getting in the way.
The body is self-healing with the proper tools, methods and environment in place.

According to Heather, in order to heal naturally, the body, the mind and the gut must be nurtured. Heather teaches her clients how to heal their body by nurturing their mind.
One of the things that allows Heather to catapult her clients’ healing, is that she has been where her clients have been. Following a suffocating health battle and mired in grief due to the loss of a family member, Heather’s mind and emotions were in such turmoil her whole body went into shock.
Heather’s newest signature program FFF, Food Fashion and Fitness is designed to help her clients gain more confidence and in these three areas. Heather helps her clients find relief, clarity and direction around these choices to feel more energized, focused, and reduce bloating and brain fog.
“I like to make things as simple as possible so that whatever we do is realistic and sustainable,” says Heather. “Do a little bit less of what you know is not as good for you and a little bit more of what you know is good for you.”

Delray Beach, FL – Bees don't just make honey. They are critically important to nature, more so than people ever realize. They play a vital role as pollinators, ensuring we have beautiful flowers, fresh fruits and vegetables.
Tragically, bees have been dying worldwide at an unsustainable rate, with serious consequences for our natural world. The number of honey bee hives in the U.S. has decreased from 6 million in the 1940s to only about 2.5 million today.
Nina M. Kelly is the author of HoneyBee TreeHouse, a children's picture book that introduces young readers to the importance of saving the bees, and what they can do to help.
Nina was inspired to write HoneyBee TreeHouse doing what we all did at the beginning of pandemic: walking in nature.
Of course, most children, and even adults, are afraid of bees.
“Truthfully, if you leave bees alone, they will not harm you,” assures Nina. “Bees are much smarter than you think. They are very community minded. They have jobs and they do their job. Writing the book, I learned not to be afraid of them. I love bees!”
HoneyBee TreeHouse has even drawn the attention of the World Bee Project’s founder Sabiha Rumani Malik, who writes, “In this beautiful book children discover wondrous facts about these little creatures who we depend on for most of the food that keeps us healthy.”

“It’s another dimension,” explains psychic spirit medium "Seer” and paranormal researcher Lisa Lanno. “We tend to look up to the heavens and the sky because it's beautiful, but it's a dimension close to ours, like they are in another room maybe with the door shut. Sometimes you can hear them clearly, sometimes it’s a bit muffled. I deliver the mail. I don't necessarily know what the mail means.”
Lisa started playing with tarot cards when she was 19 but she was not a medium and professional psychic until she was 54 years old.
“My daughter's friend committed suicide, and my daughter asked me for a reading on the girl,” recalls Lisa.
After that, says Lisa, it just kept happening.
I just said to the universe said, “If this is going to keep happening, I need you to put me where you need me.”
In addition to Mediumship, Lisa also offers life path guidance/tarot, healing from past life trauma, connections with your guides, teaching others to increase intuition, paranormal research, and guidance for the average person not to get taken advantage of by fakes.
She is also the author of the children's juvenile fiction novel, The Secret Cave, an adventure/mystery for readers 8-12. The books helps young readers use creative thinking.

Cranberry Township, PA – When a business is trying to grow, especially in the digital realm, search engine optimization is essential.
SEO boosts a business’s visibility online by tailoring its website to match the preferences of its users as well as Google’s algorithm.
Alicia Cleary is an SEO specialist and the co-founder of Cyber Writers Ink, a full-service SEO and website development company specializing in content optimization for small businesses.
“Our favorite thing to do is empower small businesses,” says Alicia, “but our mission is to help businesses of all sizes grow to their fullest potential.”
On a fundamental level, says Alicia, Google for example, looks for customer value. If Google continues to deliver relevant websites in their search results, people will continue to use their platform, in turn, the overall experience on a website must meet the needs of its users.
“We have to strike a balance between what the owner wants and what their audience needs,” says Alicia. “It’s a long term process, but the results are longer lasting. If we build a user experience that people come back to, and continue to build on what people respond to through engaging content, those results only get better and better and last for a longer period of time.”
Alicia has been a published writer since she was a teenager, but her love for numbers led her toward the world of SEO and digital analytics.
“SEO may seem intimidating, but businesses will have to compete because things are not going backward,” says Alicia. “The data gets better every day and this realm is expanding constantly.”

Anne Reid is here to help you activate your motivation manage your primitive brain.
Coaching helps people access the higher functioning parts of the brain and to recognize when they are reverting back to the part of the brain that will do anything to avoid discomfort. And uncertainty. Anne helps her clients access their choices, recognize their self-defeating patterns, and train their higher-level brain to work for them.
With a strong mix of honesty, encouragement and accountability, Anne focuses on her clients’ top priorities and helps create effective strategies to get them there.
“I’m an accountability partner: I ask hard questions; I call people on their nonsense; and I teach them skills,” says Anne. “My first coach told me, ‘You will find that the people you trust are the people who tell you what you don't want to hear. I believe if people aren't honest with you or think you're not being honest with yourself and don't call you on it, it's really a disservice. This can be done kindly and sternly depending on what style the person needs or can hear. As a coach, I very much try to say things in a way that my client can hear them.”
Anne says she’s most proud when her clients discover their Aha! moment.
“People become more of who they want to be and can be, but may not have believed they could be,” says Anne. “I get to watch them take their first step towards freedom.”

Naples, FL – Robin Jelinek is a conscious channeler of Athena in Truth, a group of 10 entities delivering messages from universal consciousness.
“Something else speaks through me,” explains Robin. “The primary reason is to assist humans to get a better understanding of how to manifest. They want everyone to feel and be free of resistance.”
The group inhabits Robin’s body, and she receives the download of information. Robin allows it to happen and simply steps aside.
“We are moving through her,” says Athena. “I am the one that speaks for the group.”
Athena in Truth is helpful to people who are struggling in their lives, whether it be in their relationships or their business. It’s hard to prepare someone for what to expect, but the one thing you will receive is the truth.
According to Athena, when we are on this emotive plane, the ups and downs of our emotions are oftentimes what messes us up. Athena helps Robin’s clients move into a higher state of connection.
“We want to say hello and introduce you to yourself,” says Athena. “We want you to enjoy your life. We want to be in your joy.”
“Living without reflection is what we would call unconscious living. There are so many joyous events that are going unnoticed. Humans become victims and they feel downtrodden,” says Athena. “We would love humans to be more conscious of everything, even the coffee they drink. When you are conscious, you find appreciation. We are ecstatic about this opportunity to link with Robin and help humans understand that they are the creator.”
