The Society of Professional Journalists, Colorado Press Association, Colorado Mountain News Media and Purdue Exponent have recognized April for her notable writing and graphic design achievements.

They have also partnered with Dream Smart Academy to get the program out to communities.More Notes:How to get from where you are now to healthy thriving family relationships. Getting caught up in perfection and expectations causes obstacles. Strive for harmony, be in the present, have grace when you fall short. Be focused on the process, strive for harmony not perfection.Let go of control - you can't control what children, spouse, others do.Break pattern of pleasing and enabling (co-dependency)- empathy and kindness is interdependentIs it easy? No Perfect balance? No It's all about harmonyTips for today:This situation shall pass. You can only do your best. Clear, specific communication is key.People learn from what they observe. Set the example.Relate and understand. Then be clear about expectations and what the day looks like.Strive for that harmony.Know it's a process and do the best you can.Kids need to feel heard, as we all do.Keeping things in perspective and clear, we can begin to develop solutions.Control what you can, letting go of what you can't.

    This is episode 2009 of the Vibrant Living Series. I’m Kimberly Henrie and this is Living the Good Life. Guest: Cathy HeyligerAuthor of children’s book, Love is... https://www.amazon.com/Love-Cathy-Heyliger/dp/1793382638/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=heyliger+cathy&qid=1590162275&sr=8-1Host: Kimberly Henrie, www.kimberlyhenrie.comMore episodes: www.kimberlyhenrie.com/the-show Today’s topic is about acceptance. Not only acceptance but our response to unexpected circumstances. There’s been a bit of that going around lately. Many of us feel knocked around by Federal, State and Local executive orders, CDC guidelines, masks, no-masks, social distancing, isolation and more. Some are doing better than others, but we are all affected in one way or another. We question who has our best interests at heart and we struggle with safety versus economy and all that entails. Several of our guests in this vibrant living series have shared wisdom that can help us navigate. Mindfulness practitioner Brenda Chamberlain in episode 2002 spoke about how a mindfulness practice can help us to respond productively to these circumstances rather than reacting wildly out of fear or anger. Bruce Cryer, Marcia Martin and Tom Terwilliger all shared important teachings on mindset and how we can move through fear and be empowered in our response. I love Marcia’s verbal illustration of breaking free of the prison we created for ourself. When we can take a pause, mindfulness, assess our circumstances, awareness, and understand that how we participate in our circumstances dictates not only our reality but how we feel about that reality and the amount of joy or self-satisfaction we live with… we become empowered individuals. That doesn’t mean we are all going to agree on the guidelines and executive orders. However, if we can shift our mindset to understanding that most all of us are navigating this the best we can, including business owners and leaders of government at all levels, then hopefully we can be more effective in discussing solutions and showing grace for ourselves and each other when the fear does get in the way.In this episode, I want to share a meaningful conversation that I had with a local author last year about this time. Cathy Heyliger created a children’s book titled Love is…. When I saw her two grown boys read the book aloud on social media, I had to get to know the woman behind it and learn how it all came about. As I listened to it again today, I realized, though on the surface the subject is different from the coronavirus pandemic we are facing today, the divisiveness and the acceptance message of it all still applies. The uncertainty on how to proceed, how to navigate new information, new reality is relatable. I hope you find a nugget or two that speaks to you as I sit down with the author of Love is… Cathy Heyliger.More on Cathy Heyliger:The author Cathy Heyliger of Love is… wanted to share this book with other parents because of her unique experience as not only a parent, but an early childhood educator. As a Montessori preschool teacher since the late 80’s, she knows how much wisdom the young child carries in their heart. How very aware they are of who they are and how they fit into the world. It is our job as parents to help them be aware of all the aspects of being human and prevent them from suffering whenever possible. One of her sons knew there was something different about him in kindergarten when he had a crush on a boy named Quinn. It was at that moment in his life that he started to question how he fit into the heterosexual world. Every year it became more solidified and more defined in his mind that he did not fit. Instead of thinking it was okay he began to hate himself for being different, he thought he was a freak. Her husband and she had no idea he was grappling with these thoughts. If only they had been more aware of his conflict, they could they have addressed and possibly prevented his pain.This book is her prevention method! There are lots of books out there about my two mommies or two daddies, but unless you are from a family like this, it is not necessarily a book you would seek out or pick up. She did not… but wishes with all her heart she would have! It would have prevented years of heartache for both of her precious sons who came out in their early teens. She aches to know of all the men and women out there who have gone through any part their lives hiding their secret to try and fit in! She also understands how terribly painful it must be for a child who begins to realize they are transgender! Her most fervent hope is that Love is… is an early and first step in exposing our children to the ideas of acceptance and love for whoever they are!!!Previous episodes referenced:LTGL 2002 - Brenda Chamberlain, Mindfulness Practionerhttps://www.kimberlyhenrie.com/the-show/episode/79b66edc/ltgl2002-vibrant-living-series-brendachamberlain-mindfulness-coachLTGL 2006 - Bruce Cryer, Heartmathhttps://www.kimberlyhenrie.com/the-show/episode/78df1c1f/ltgl2006-vibrant-living-series-brucecryer-heartmathLTGL 2007 - Marcia Martin, Reach Your Full Potentialhttps://www.kimberlyhenrie.com/the-show/episode/79cec1ef/ltgl2007-vibrant-living-series-marcia-martin-reach-your-full-potentialLTGL 2008 - Tom Terwilliger, The Comeback Planhttps://www.kimberlyhenrie.com/the-show/episode/7990f5e3/ltgl2008-vibrant-living-series-tomterwilliger-the-comeback-plan

Today, in our Vibrant Living series, we’ll be talking about the benefits of chiropractic, how to choose the appropriate professional technique and professional for you, why chiropractic may be beneficial and what to do if you can’t get to your chiropractor right now. We’ve got a lot to talk about, so let’s get started.Kimberly: Our Guest today is the owner of Trailhead Chiropractic, a graduate of the Palmer College of Chiropractic, and specializes in pregnancy and pediatrics with a certification in the Webster technique, and practices Torque Release Technique in his offices at Trailhead Chiropractic, where he is the owner and I think Smoke (dog) is the manager. Welcome. Dr. Tom Wessel. Dr. Tom: Hi, Kim. You so much for having me. I really appreciate it. Kimberly: We appreciate you jumping on here and helping us learn a little bit more about how we can take control of our situation, our circumstances, and create the best life possible. That's what it's all about. Right? Dr. Tom: That's the goal. Kimberly: Exactly. Yeah. So, how are you spending this time during the quarantine this the stay-at-home order. Dr. Tom: We are spending our time just getting outside as much as possible. Just enjoying the sunshine. We live in a rural area and so get outside enjoying the sunshine staying active, you know, just not let trying not to let that boredom take over.Kimberly: Right. Well, we live in a beautiful place. We both live here in Colorado. So we're very fortunate. There's a lot of things to get out and do and a lot of space to do it. That's awesome. And I know you're looking forward to getting back into the office very much. So what do you think folks should be doing right now if they can't and we want to talk about Chiropractic and why that's a benefit but there's a lot of folks who can't get in to see their chiropractor right now. So what kind of recommendations do you have for them? Dr. Tom: Yeah. So Chiropractic is all about adapting the body to deal with stress and so in a time where you cannot further adapt your body to deal with those stressors in your life, what you want to do is limit your stress even more than you normally would now stress comes down to three things and that's thoughts traumas and toxins. Okay, those are all types of stress and so keeping your mind active not letting those negative thoughts take over would be one part of that staying active staying healthy exercising eating correctly. So you're not putting toxins in your body. Basically just living a healthy lifestyle as best as you possibly can will not only increase your body's ability to adapt to stress. It will also increase your body's ability to adapt to other things such as what's going on right now currently with this virus pandemic. Kimberly: Right. I love practicing daily breathwork. Breath work for me is a total stress reliever along with the exercise and getting outside just brings everything down to a nice calm gentle level. Tell me, let's kind of go back to your journey here. Why are you a chiropractor? What drew you into the profession? And what do you find helpful and beneficial about offering that service? Dr. Tom: It's interesting. I think I think you and I have talked about this before. I don't remember but I was drawn into Chiropractic at a very young age. I grew up in northern Wisconsin and my father was a Forester. So instead of paying for daycare, I would just go to work with him every day....Thanks again to Dr. Thomas Wessel for educating us today. You can reach out to Dr. Tom at trailheadchiro.com.

It brings people together and is an opportunity to reset the playing field. Chris believes strong interdependent family structures lead to strong communities and businesses.EFA was formed by Chris and Joe Cohen (Author of Right Father, Right Son). Chris was influenced by Joe’s book. Interviewed Joe and saw a synergy and mutual belief that dads play an important role in the development of children. The EFA process was born out of this collaboration.EFA trains facilitators to bring the process to the communities. They have also partnered with Dream Smart Academy to get the program out to communities.More Notes:How to get from where you are now to healthy thriving family relationships. Getting caught up in perfection and expectations causes obstacles. Strive for harmony, be in the present, have grace when you fall short. Be focused on the process, strive for harmony not perfection.Let go of control - you can’t control what children, spouse, others do. Break pattern of pleasing and enabling (co-dependency)- empathy and kindness is interdependentIs it easy? No Perfect balance? No It’s all about harmonyTips for today:This situation shall pass. You can only do your best. Clear, specific communication is key. People learn from what they observe. Set the example.Relate and understand. Then be clear about expectations and what the day looks like.Strive for that harmony.Know it’s a process and do the best you can.Kids need to feel heard, as we all do.Keeping things in perspective and clear, we can begin to develop solutions.Control what you can, letting go of what you can’t. When you’ve mastered that things will start to change for the better.We get in our own way. You vs you, we vs weEFA’s wish is for every family to put that into practice.Give without expectation.

    LTGL 012 Andy Imhoff Andy is host of Boost, Booze and BBQ and Pardon My Fork podcasts.Andy parted out a race car and had some money that needed an outlet. He had raced and even has trophies from doing that. He got tired of waiting for someone to contact him for an interview on a podcast and started his own. He did lots of research and found that “precious few items” would provide professional quality. He started in February of 2016. His most popular episodes were about food and it has grown from there. It keeps gaining attraction and followers and getting more popular all the time.When talking with people about food, it’s visceral. It’s so tied in centrally with our brains – sights, smells, touch, sounds – it’s all so integral. Food is ingrained in us because it is so vital to life. Most people congregate around where the food is. Sales tip – be near the food and you’ll be around the people.As Andy says, “Food for thought and knowledge for life!”He is hardest on himself. Most people are. “But it resonates so much with me. I thought it might be short term, I could sell my equipment and move on. And now I find I am shoulder deep in a journey to be more fully committed.” It’s time for me to do that. He was an 80 percenter. He is leaving that behind him now. No longer a status quo guy because it is a ridiculous self-fulfilling prophecy. Depression, crippling depression, was a part of his past. He could accomplish things but it stayed in his life. He wanted to be happy. Not for the sake of being happy, it just wasn’t enough. He felt accomplishments left a bitter taste in his mouth. This is why I am so drawn to food. It’s such an experience of touch and feel. For instance, fire allows me to step out of a crisis. As Kim said, it is a form of meditation.The smell, the sound, the heat of a wood fire brings back all the sensory and innate memories of this experience. Andy says that a great team building exercise is build a fire and cook a steak over it. Each person has their own steak. It is often done in corporate parking lots today.Kim tells us about an experience she and her husband had about cooking steaks at the end of sticks over the fire. Then they ate the steaks caveman style. It was a memorable bonding experience.Andy reminds us that about 60 years ago, people switched to indoor cooking. It was natural to cook outside over a wood fire.Andy was invited to a massive event and opportunity. His wife insisted that they go. She overrode his self-denial and they went to the WFC (World Food Champs) event. It was a fantastic event. They became the last minute sou chefs. It worked for them because they are super competitive. And his parent s had a restaurant.He relates a memory where he started the grill on fire. Someone was screaming, ”Fire. Fire” Instead of using a fire extinguisher, he leaned in and blew the fire out! Much to the chagrin of his eyebrows.We ended up with 3rd place in the competition. Usually first timers don’t do this well. We went to the final round and got 10th place. He explains the low placement being due to using a tortilla instead of a hamburger bun.His “inner ham” came out. He jumped in front of the camera every chance he got.For his show, he doesn’t do a lot of prep. He loves to explore the art of conversation. It makes for an organic conversation. Kim and Andy have fun, entertain and inspire. And shift perspectives.Conversations should be embraced and not avoided. Andy says that he has found that his food show has allowed people to seek out the people that know what they are doing and are hands on. Being an independent food journalist means a lot to Andy. If it’s important to Andy, it shows.Duck meat is one of the most underutilized proteins. It takes the smoke so well. Smoke it on the second rack in the smoker and capture the fat and the liquid runoff. It is amazing. Make your rice with it. Use the liquid and mix with milk – coconut milk, salt, pepper, chives, etc. It is so delicious. One recommendation is Duck Char. Their product is astounding. They sell the duck breasts.

    This conversation circles around selfies, social media, breast cancer, essential oils, the impact of the choices we make and much more.Today’s Trivia: How many selfies are posted each day?Fabianna Marie of FabulouslyFighting.com was diagnosed at the age of 27 with Breast Cancer. She's endured over 150 rounds of Chemotherapy, radiation, and a deteriorating kidney. She fights every day and has chosen to share her journey with the world through blogging and social media in hopes of inspiring anyone facing adversity.She launched her first book in November of 2016. She has been a guest speaker at national cancer charity and fundraising events as well as part of a national ad campaign for the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer. She is also an award winning photographer, best selling author and writer and is a former model and entertainer. Along with her degree in Liberal Arts and Business she also holds certifications in Raw, Vegetarian and Vegan Cuisine, and is a Certified Holistic Nutritionist and aromatherapy Practitioner. Her company, Fabulously Fighting LLC, is dedicated to helping others live through adversity through love, laughter and honesty.Fabianna’s life changed when she figured out that she had the choice on how to live and move through her life. It wasn’t an overnight realization. Over time she realized creating her ideal life was going to manifest through the choices she makes.Her life is not sunshine and rainbows, living with metastatic breast cancer, but she gets to choose how she responds to the hard times. The name of her business came from someone describing how she viewed Fabianna’s journey. Her first book, Cancer is What I Have, Not Who I Am is a compilation of her blog posts about what she’s been going through or other life stories. In the beginning, everyone had their opinions about how she should treat her cancer (and also Lupus that she has been diagnosed with.) She realized she wanted to control how she responded to her diagnoses. When she realized that she could do her homework and learned how she could change things on her end, she realized that trusing her gut gave her power. Dr’s were giving her 5 years to live (she’s on 13 years as of today) she decided that she was going to take those years (vs being “given” them.) She butted heads with her doctors, bringing in research about different therapies, diets, etc. Fabianna’s daughter, Mackenzie, was one year old when she was diagnosed. She believes that if she had not taken control, she may have only lived the 5 years expected and would have missed out on so much of Mackenzie’s life.Photography served as an outlet and turned into a career. Now, she has achieved the level of Naturopathic Practitioner and is pursuing certification as a naturpathic doctor. She is excited to use the knowledge that she gained in her fight against cancer to serve clients in her practice. One of the areas that she works deeply with clients on is essential oils.Essential oils can be so good for you, but you need to work with a professional, because they can be hazardous to humans and pets used incorrectly. She is creating personal oil blends based on a clients holistic picture and having great results treating such conditions as bursitis, breast cancer, anxiety, depression, multiple sclerosis(MS.)Fabianna says making choices for yourself means that you are authentically living. Every challenge becomes an opportunity.She says Living a Good Life means living authentically.http://www.FabulouslyFighting.com###Trivia Answer: There are 93 million selfies each day, which would represent 2,583,333 rolls of film. According to Pamela Rutledge, director of the nonprofit Media Psychology Research Center. She says “Posting high points in life increases confidence, empowerment, gratitude, and appreciation through mindfulness, and the ability to visualize desired outcomes.” So that’s good news. Also, if you are working your business in the social media realm, you’ll be glad to know that 80% of Instagram users follow at least one business AND over 200 million of them visit a business Instagram profile every day. Just to balance things out… one more interesting statistic. Did you know, in the year 2015 there were more deaths from taking selfies than there were from shark attacks?

    Al Kessel is a full-time narrator and voice actor who works out of his professional home recording studio in sunny Arizona. He began several successful podcasts in 2010 and is a prolific audiobook narrator and has lent his voice numerous other projects, including apps and video games. He's not all work though... let's learn more about Al Kessel. He likes to focus on the “good” stuff. Audio books weren’t where he wanted his career to go. But he loves books and always finds something appealing. He never read a book in his voice. He always created a character voice to match his imagination of the character. His audiobook career spans the time since 2013. Before that point, it was doing podcasting with his wife. He had been doing the same job for 15 years, then he was downsized out of a job. He began his voiceover journey. It got hard, but his wife encouraged him to stay with it, even when he would get discouraged. Recording audio books means sitting for very long times – hours even. But even though you are all alone, you are talking “with” someone. Not just a cold heartless microphone. He imagines himself sitting around a campfire telling stories and his listeners are spellbound. His philosophy? Every story deserves to be told. Every story. Every story also deserves to be heard. Fun comes from hanging out with his posse- collection of figurines - all around him in his studio. His cast of fun characters includes Buzz Lightyear and other fun characters. Al and his wife love DisneyLand. Tales from the Mouse House comes from a visit to DisneyLand. The second he walked through the gates, he was a kid again. Then the ideas flowed. They did the podcasts for a couple of years. They thought people would want to know of the little hidden details and interesting things to do in DisneyLand. When they stopped doing it, there were about 75,000 downloads per episode. Al says podcasting is an interesting medium. It is a great way for anyone to get their great ideas out into the world. It’s really about taking passions and monetizing them so that you can continue doing what you love. Because the key to success is doing something you are passionate about it. Your audience can always tell someone who is just reading a script to someone who is connecting with people through their passion. Everyone faces times when they want to “throw in the towel”. Al had been used to having an idea and being successful with it. The voiceover industry doesn’t work that way. As this was unfolding, Al was 49 years old. He had been at a job for a long time. People don’t want to see these things on your resume. So, they pass you by. He pulled his big boy pants on to give it his all. Al’s wife supported me with incredible grace. I knew if I could make a success of what makes me happy, we would both be happy. Al says, “This was the best choice and decision of my life.” Al’s most memorable projects are – the first one was Out There. It was the life story about a 100 mile runner. He actually chose me to read his story out of hundreds of auditions. His book portrays his struggles with various addictions. He was really broken and had a heart attack. He left the hospital and started running. It is an inspiring story. The other memorable book was by Dr. DisneyLand, Jeffrey Barnes. He wrote a couple of books. They are backgrounded in Walt Disney and the Disney parks to make his points. The non-fiction is where I get inspired and get involved. There are so many stories to be told in non-fiction form. Even the quietest mouse in the corner has a story. A good life is doing something you are passionate about, something you love doing and sharing it with someone. “When I look ahead, I would love to voice some animation and some video games. But my true love is audio books. I don’t see myself stopping this.”Post Production: Avery Russell Links: AlKessel.comAl Kessel on Audible - https://tinyurl.com/y99gheww Tales From the Mouse House Podcast-talescast.com The Wisdom of Walt https://tinyurl.com/yasmuhmx Out There: A Story of Ultra Recovery https://tinyurl.com/y893csen www.kimberlyhenrie.com/the-showFB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/LTGLCommunity/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/kimberlyhenrie Sponsors: Texas Media TV: http://www.txmediatv.com Making Shifts Happen http://www.makingshiftshappen.com Fruition StudioIf living your good life means doing work you love and making a difference, consider this: How can you do either, if no one knows about what you do?Marketing is what gets your work into the lives of those you serve.Fruition Studio helps entrepreneurs use marketing to connect with customers and grow.Fruition Studio offers a full spectrum of email marketing, copywriting and design services.Find free tools and more at fruitionstudio.com.

    Paul Wagner believes that finding your purpose is more important than finding your passion. In fact, he says relying on your passion is bogus (he uses another word, for the record.) Living and working on the crunchy side in Boulder, CO, Paul is a self-described geeky tech guy who also has a tremendously spiritual side. His Personality project, including an app, tarot cards and book, are being updated with artificial intelligence components and two new books. Additionally, he's teaching and touring around his business book, Start Up Confidential.Paul talks about how the 234 personalities were revealed to him and how utilizing these tools can help you better understand your true, authentic self and get closer to your purpose. Allowing yourself to decompress in presence of light, finding, releasing and expressing emotions releases peacefulness and breeds authenticity. This discussion also challenges the ideas around New Agism and white male culture.
