She is also the Leader of The Global Sisterhood an organization that guides and supports the dreams of Women and children all over the world!   Shellie brings so much to Women today from her rich background in education as a former tenured professor from Robert Morris University, as an award winning author of the Common Threads trilogy, and she has earned numerous awards , like Entrepreneur of the Year and Women of Achievement.    What I enjoyed discovering about Shellie, and I think you will too,  is that in her heart of hearts she is not only a collector of stories, she feels compelled to curate stories about Women from around the world, in particular ones where Women have overcome personal and cultural adversity. Emphasizing the triumphant spirit of their humanity, is a recurring theme and seems to be at the center of what inspires her and in turn how she inspires us!  Listen in and you'll find out why!!!   As successful as Shellie is today, she reveals her own challenging story with us and the pivotal moments that lead her from a darker place to a tenure track as Professor in Pittsburgh, then on to inspiring Women and becoming an award winning author.     We traverse many topics and stories in our chat, some lead us to explore how vision and drive inspire her, why mentors are essential and the secret magic to having a great mentor / mentee relationship; the exchange of ideas and through a reciprocal relationship based on mutual growth! Knowing how to keep yourself grounded and engaged with what's important like quality family time, self-care, and authentic friendships that have evolved from her sisterhood tribe.   Being an entrepreneurial Woman myself, I ask: What advice do have for Women with big dreams trying to actualize them? She answers emphatically: Creating vision boards with a clear mission incorporated for each new idea and project!  Learn more about my Sponsor Sudio here!   Listen here and Be Inspired with Dr. Shellie Now!

Like accepting the fact that you are not perfect, no one is and...that's ok!

So how do we own our messy brilliance? You have to be willing to pull together all the aspects of yourself - the good, the great, the bad and the ugly... (overdoing, perfectionism, victimhood, confidence, strengths, personal power,) it is about opening to the fullness of who you are and ultimately accepting it and even loving it! I know that this may sound new, perhaps even daunting, but Kelly shares her 7 tools and exercises to bridge this gap in our belief about ourselves, and how to integrate what we can't abide about ourselves, to opening up to the idea that our messiness is the very source of our beauty and strength!   Listen in to learn how you can easily use these 7 Tools: Curiosity, Awareness, Acceptance, Intuition, Choice, Manifestation and create the infinite roadmap to your wholeness!

Images that you weren't aware existed and certainly did not approve of and you have no control of removing. The person who committed this atrocious act, you once lived with and loved. And is now trying to humiliate you and destroy your reputation. Turns out there is no legislation that can prevent this from occurring to you nor ensure that the pictures are removed!   This act commonly referred to as cyber revenge porn, to Darieth, it felt more like an act of cyber rape. "It still leaves me feeling as if I had been raped, stripped of my identity and dignity."  Spiraling into a place of shame and silence, Darieth gets raw and real with me as she reveals what it was like dwelling in shame and victimhood, the key turning point that enabled her to find her way out and how she confronted this dark place with these insightful question: Did this happen to me or for me? How best can I use this experience? Who do I need to become in order to overcome? Moving forward with courage and conviction you will be astounded to learn what followed: A powerful awakening to her divine assignment!  A Social Justice Project creating a documentary on cyber crimes Launching her new platform 50 Shades of Silence. offering support and resources for other cyber harassment victims.    Listen in to the rest of this story where Darieth shares how her divine assignment unfolded, how you can be supported with resources and how you can get involved as an Angel Ambassador!

I am simply enamored with my guest this week, Laurel Moll and her totally refreshing approach to dealing with FEAR!   Which is not to run or hide from it, and especially not to fear it, instead she believes that fear leads to joy and not surprisingly, her philosophy is to FOLLOW FEAR and enjoy the ride it takes you on!   After experiencing a series of truly traumatic life events in 2013, Laurel plunged into overwhelming despair. Through her tears and vulnerability she found herself surrendering to 'what is' and allowed her curiosity to explore if there was a 'greater force at play' in her life and wondering 'Are my fears trying to tell me something'?   What follows are the beautiful lessons of surrender and trust, and the transformative power of following your fears. The pivotal turning point came by creating daily gratitude listing practice, which opened up a flow of love, support, joy and discovery of her true self.   By choosing to follow her rather lengthy list of fears, 30 of them, she found herself swimming with Whale Sharks, flying an airplane and embarking on writing her first memoir: Following Fear: How I faced 30 fears and learned to Trust the Unknown.    This collection of vulnerable short stories aims to inspire others to follow their fears instead of running from them and we touch upon how you too!   Laurel takes fear and turns it into a beautiful metaphor that is so appealing that you will find yourself ready to step in and embrace YOUR fears!                             LISTEN HERE

My guest this week is San Francisco Songstress Nina Grae! This singer songwriter pours her heart out to reveal not only her grit for taking charge of her dreams and talents by leaving the Corporate scene to be a musician, but also her courage to express her searing and soulful truth.   Nina came from a successful Marketing career, but as she followed her passion to study with the world's great Teachers, she soon grew tired of the marketing world's methods and messages of portraying people as broken in need of fixing.    As a recording artist she is committed to creating music with conscious, love centric message and aspires for her music to be a home and a sanctuary for humanity from duality of the world.   As her story unfolds we learn that her wake up call came the day Steve Jobs died. The legacy of his innovation and contribution to technology had such a profound impact on her, she found herself asking; "Am I making a difference?" The response came as a resounding No! And what she did next was completely crazy....to most people! But Nina is not most people and that is why I knew I had to interview her, share her story and her voice with you! She shares so much with us about the music industry, her great influencers and sage advice for budding musicians to follow.   Her first release is called The Remedy~ which seems to be in perfect alignment with her mission! Take a listen folks to this interview and enjoy the bonus track at the end when Nina serenades us with a beautiful ballad!  

Having some fun this week with Marta Foos Mazoni of Marta on the Move Podcast and you will too! Wait until you hear the 'Happy Trails' this local Pittsburgh gal has been on!   Marta thrives on solo adventures in pursuit of her truth and shares her love for exploring and then linking her cultural experiences back to Pittsburgh through her podcast Marta on the Move.   She claims that she maintains her sense of self by keeping healthy boundaries, choosing to be with people who lift her up and uses Yoga as a centering practice while dipping into flotation tanks to stay grounded.   And unlike most people, because Marta is unlike most people, she is not afraid of her fear, in fact fear is the driver that leads her passions!    Our chat takes an interesting turn when she defines her sense of adventure through tomb excavation in Greece and spends her post honeymoon helping to rebuild a 10th century castle in the south of France. This is her way of giving back and connecting with people & cultures globally. She finds her podcast a suitable vehicle to share her experiences and sees it as an audible scrapbook of sorts.     We can all take a page from Marta's book in the way she lives her life in pursuit of her desires and gives back in some extraordinary ways. She is a beautiful example of holding on to what is precious; and that is the unique expression of her soul! Take a listen here for some inspiration and a good time!
