She is a very selfless person and has some very definite feelings about death and our life and our soul. I appreciate what she does and for being on the show. This guest is Star Bradbury. Star is a senior living expert who has given thousands of families the education and information needed to navigate the complex world of senior Healthcare. She has been working with seniors for over 25 years and as the founder of Senior Living Strategies, she regularly collaborates and consults with individuals and families from all walks of life as well as professionals in the legal, medical, financial, and long-term care insurance world.

Imagine leaving the comforts the corporate world can provide to find and do something greater than yourself. You can find purpose and fulfillment in helping others through dedication, compassion, and having a good heart. Today's guest has done just that. He is a gentleman I have known for years from the cycling world. I always wondered, “how is he involved in all these things?!” while smiling and making great connections. Chris Doane is a Branding and Digital Marketing Director who found his sense of urgency growing as he approached age 40. He believes that we are all born blessed in some way. He feels strongly that if we're not using those blessings to make a positive impact around us, we are wasting something that is God-given. To this day, he continues to be blessed with a lot of energy to serve his purpose. Through his volunteering at many cycling-based programs, Chris teaches others that the things that seem to cause so much anxiety in life will take a back seat when one's energy goes toward service. He believes that peace and personal satisfaction with life come through embracing a purpose and being relentless about fulfilling it. He also motivates people to ‘keep showing up' and continue to pursue their interests, regardless of anyone's looking or recognizing them.

Today's guest is Suzanne Conti, a woman who was 45 years in the science lab and has since started a thriving private chef business called The Farmer Can Cook. I can attest it is flipping delicious! I have ordered amazing dishes from there and will continue to do so. There is way more to her story than a woman who went from the lab to cooking. She lived in an RV with her husband and planted her orchard. She has gone up against the state pest regulation of South Carolina and won and does not want glyphosate and other pesticides on her vegetables and herbs. She's a grandmother like me and just turned 66 with her own private chef business. With determination and intuition, she skipped retirement and kept moving forward in her second wind.

“Be who you are, say what you feel. Those who mind don't matter. And those who matter don't mind” by Dr.Seuss is a little quote I keep on my kitchen window sill that my friend, Amy Anderson, gave me as a gift many years ago.

From then on we have done a bunch of stuff together like chatting on the Second Wind podcast.Today's guest is Amy, who is that friend that reminds you there's more to consider than the everyday life of mom and wife duties. She shows us that it is not just what you see on the surface, there's more to life than that.

She makes us ask questions in order to figure out our lives. I thought, who better to have on this podcast than someone who is living the second wind journey every single day?Heal your body and mind with RYZE mushroom coffee.

“What I love to help women to do, it feels a bit radical, is to introduce the idea of bringing the full season into your month.

This is a podcast episode I have been waiting to record and share. Dr.April Warhola is a Chiropractor by trade. However, what she offers to her clients and those simply in her space is true healing. There is an energy that April has and can deliver. She “reads” our bodies and clears pathways for communication within her patient's systems in order to heal.Dr. April grew up within a family of Chiropractic Doctors with different styles and expertise. As a child, Getting adjusted is what kept her family healthy. They did not need conventional Doctors. Runny nose, ear infection, headache, sore ankle? Get on the chiropractic table.Dr. April didn't really know that how her family was healing was so different until she saw firsthand when her girlfriends all started menstruating. They would carry around the Tylenol and complain of cramps and headaches. Funny, April did not have any of those symptoms.April always had an intuitive and empathetic side that quite often made her feel like an outcast. She just did not fit in and felt it. But all kids want to fit in, especially as we go through high school and college so, April abandoned her real true self and covered it up to try to be something and somebody she was not. She always wanted to help people but thought studying to be a Lawyer would get her there in the best and most conformist way.After a professor had her “try it out” on the weekends in the courthouse, she had her aha moment when she realized, sitting inside and being part of the public defender world was not true to her sprint, the one she had shoved down. It was time to peel away the layers and honor her talents.Switching majors, April became a Doctor of Chiropractic. April also works with and is certified/licensed in working with animals.The stories she shares in this episode about a couple of animal cases will make you tear up for sure!What sets April apart is her fascination with the body, its own energy, and its ability to heal itself. She is always studying new information within this subject and integrating real techniques into her practice. Add the fact that she has intuitive abilities and truly open communication with nature, and April is a true healer.I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did recording it, and I hope you decide to look into ways to allow your body to heal on its own.
