  • In today’s episode, I have the opportunity to speak with Rachel S. Heslin, an expert in individual and social psychology. Rachel is passionate about helping people become more flexible, resilient, and adept at managing change. Her journey began early, as her father, a clinical psychologist, introduced her to neurolinguistic programming at the age of nine, sparking a lifelong fascination with the human mind.

    Rachel's path has been deeply influenced by her personal experiences, particularly her marriage. She shares how the challenges and growth in her relationship with her husband were pivotal in her life and her thinking. Rachel shares the profound loss she faced with her husband’s sudden passing, using it as a catalyst to delve deeper into her understanding of grief and resilience.

    Rachel’s recent TEDx talk, titled “A Defense of Victim Mentality,” underscores her commitment to fostering compassion and understanding for others. This talk, given on the eve of the second anniversary of her husband’s death, was a heartfelt tribute filled with her wisdom and desire to assist others navigating their own struggles.

    Listeners are encouraged to explore how thoughts, feelings, and actions interplay in shaping their lives, and how embracing these elements leads to personal growth, even in challenging times. Rachel’s insights are practical and helpful for anyone dealing with loss.

    About the Guest:

    Rachel S. Heslin has been immersed in the study of both individual and social psychology for decades, with an emphasis on how interactions between groups and individuals affect our identity and experience. She is fascinated by why people and organizations act the way they do, especially when those actions seem counter-productive.

    Through her company, The Fullness of Your Power, she uses her expertise and insight to help others become more flexible, resilient, and successful as the world around us continues to change. Rachel is currently the author of two books: Navigating Life: 8 Different Strategies to Guide Your Way, and Rituals of Release: How to Make Room for Your New Life.

She encourages women to celebrate their financial wins—big and small—and to find joy in financial growth and learning.

    Join us as we explore the transformational journey of taking control of your finances, aligning your money management with your life goals, and eradicating the shame and fear often associated with financial discussions. Tune in, relax, and get inspired to take charge of your financial future.

  • Today, I am joined by Penny Fisher, an author and speaker. Penny recounts her experience of battling a mysterious and severe illness that led to septic shock, a medically induced coma, and life-altering surgeries, including being revived from death. As if these challenges weren't enough, she also faced a painful divorce, raising her two children on her own while undergoing intense physical and emotional recovery.

    Despite the overwhelming adversity, Penny's story is one of incredible tenacity and transformation. She shares how she managed to rebuild her life, focusing on self-worth and resilience, and how she turned her experiences into opportunities for growth. Penny's journey didn't stop with her recovery; she has since authored a memoir, "Aftershock: Reinventing Yourself One Piece at a Time," which captures her extraordinary comeback.

    Throughout the conversation, Penny emphasizes the importance of self-discipline, inner dialogue, and the power of community. She candidly discusses how she overcame bitterness, fostered open communication with her children, and even worked towards mending her relationship with her ex-husband before his untimely passing.

    This is an honest and open conversation about the ability to create the life you want to live through believing in yourself and being open to healing and transformation.

    About the Guest:

    Penny Fisher is an author and public speaker on resilience and reinvention. After 3 months in a coma on life support, she woke up to a terrible new reality with no roadmap or support. Penny spent the next 14 years rebuilding as my husband left me and our children and I had to turn my life and theirs around

She's a cancer survivor who has endured a stroke and a heart transplant, but through it all, she emerged with a fervent mission to help others live their lives fully, even in the face of adversity.

Undeterred, Jessica fought through chemotherapy, a bone marrow transplant, and a stroke, each event fortifying her resolve to live life with gratitude and joy.

    Her heart transplant in 2021 marked a new chapter, infusing her with not just a new lease on life but also a profound sense of purpose. Jessica recounts the spiritual and physical transformation that followed, leading her to embrace every moment and adventure, inspired by the gift of life from her heart donor.

    In addition to her health battles, Jessica speaks candidly about her mindful separation from her husband and the emotional challenges of navigating this significant life change while ensuring the best for their three daughters.

    Throughout our conversation, Jessica highlights the importance of gratitude, setting daily intentions, and seeking joy. Her reflections on resilience are an inspiration for anyone facing their own struggles. Jessica’s story is a testament to the human spirit's incredible capacity for renewal and positivity, and her practical advice on fostering resilience is invaluable.

  • In this episode, I have a thought-provoking discussion with Mark Entrekin, a distinguished expert with a master's degree in organizational management and over a decade of experience with Toastmasters. Mark’s current passion lies in fostering a world free of hate, anger, and prejudice.

    Mark shares his unique journey from his early years in diverse communities to his experiences in the legal system during his divorce. He reflects on how these life experiences shaped his commitment to advocating for equal parenting rights. Mark discusses his involvement with organizations such as Fathers For Equal Rights and the Children's Rights Council, emphasizing the importance of viewing both parents as essential to a child's life.

    Listeners are invited to shift their perspectives on anger and conflict. Mark introduces the idea that anger often fails to yield effective results, coining the term "actions not gaining effective results" to describe it, and contrasts it with calmness as more productive responses. He encourages us to question the value of anger and prejudiced actions, advocating instead for the development of compassionate, understanding relationships.

    Through storytelling and insightful dialogue, Mark provides strategies for transforming anger into constructive action. This episode is a must-listen for anyone navigating family disagreements, workplace conflicts, or societal divisions, which are all too common in our world today.

    About the Guest:

    Mark Entrekin may be known by his Master’s Degree in Organizational Management or his Bachelor of Science degree in Business Information Systems or his work over the past decade in Toastmasters or possibly by the multitude of certification acronyms that follow his email signature or because of his love for good red wine… …but, his passion is to continue his motivational and positive attitude as he wants to share the truths that many seem to avoid through their own portraits of illusion! As we continuously receive “media misinformation” or “soundbite slurring” or political “jabs of junk” or “twitter tirades”; how can we exhibit a positive attitude as we continue our day-to-day life around acquaintances, coworkers, friends or family members? Mark shows us how to understand the Strength of Caring, Helping and Including Others as we End Hate, Anger and Prejudice (EHAP), personally and professionally.

  • In this episode, I have a heartfelt conversation with Amanda McKoy Flanagan, a licensed master social worker and certified intuitive grief coach. Amanda's journey through sobriety, loss, and spiritual awakening is a profound testimony to the potential of healing and self-reflection. After getting sober in 2006, Amanda embarked on an 18-year-long journey of recovery, grappling with numerous personal tragedies, including the devastating loss of her brother in 2018.

    The conversation sheds light on Amanda's methods, including imago relationship therapy and the importance of inner work, illustrating how partnerships often mirror our wounds and challenge us to heal. Amanda emphasizes that both partners must be willing to do the emotional labor to achieve a thriving relationship. Through her narrative, she passionately advocates for doing the deep, uncomfortable work of healing past wounds, stressing that resolving our internal conflicts can set us free.
