His story of resilience to overcome all things in life through humanity’s gift of the “irrevocable seed of greatness” is sure to inspire you to greater heights not only in your career, but much more importantly in your life as a whole.

After quite the hiatus, I am back and armed with a newly trademarked podcast and receipts consisting of exposed emails and signed contracts to tell the full unedited story of a situation that was largely alluded to this time last year, but was never able to be fully told until today. I caught my first clinical instructor actively violating patient privacy laws for 6 years straight. She then lied to my face, blindsided me with seven "critical incidents" and threw salt in the wounds she gave me on my way out as I left her clinic and blocked her and all her employees for life. You don't want to miss this one. See you next Monday ;)

The first My Dad the Life Coach segment kicks off with several questions from our listeners - if YOU have a question for him that you need answered, DM me on instagram @keepingupwithkennedyann or email [email protected] with all your inquiries. Our lesson of the week this week then emphasizes the importance of trusting your instincts when presented with a challenging decision. Cheers to 2022!
