Visiting Normandy and touring the beaches from D-Day, June 6, 1944, is a powerful experience. It is an experience that all American citizens should plan to do. There are incredible stories of American servicemembers that left their homes to serve and sacrifice for a cause greater than themselves. It is important to remember and honor these heroes. Many people do this every year as there are approximately 1.7 million people who visit the Normandy American Cemetery annually. In this podcast episode, I speak with a tour guide, Yannick Sterke, who gives tours of the Normandy battlefields. In the summer of 2022, I took a three day tour with Yannick. He is a wealth of knowledge. He showed our group significant places including Omaha beach, Utah beach, Point du Hoc, and Saint Lo. At each place, he told us about the history of D-Day and the invasion of Normandy with a lot of powerful stories. Yannick and I kept in touch and he agreed to do an interview to talk about the history of World War II, D-Day, the Battle of Normandy, and his work showing people (including World War II veterans) the battlefields.

Show Notes:How much do you think about your thoughts? Seems kinda like a funny question, don't you think? Thinking about our thoughts? But in all reality, this is something people have encouraged me to do ever since I was a kid.  But my early training around paying attention to my thoughts really only focused on moral cleanliness. I didn't think about learning to observe and actively choose my own thoughts in other areas until I got more involved in personal development.

Show Notes:We've all come across the internet trolls. They leave annoy or at the least frustrating comments that we all wish we could just reach across the internet sometimes and put them in their place. But unfortunately, if we do happen to be in a moment when our frustration or even self-righteous indignation get's the best of us and we write back a pithy and scathing response, we immediately regret it. But what if we could teach ourselves to always pause just before then, take a moment to think clearly, and then respond more thoughtfully. Well that is exactly what today's guest's system is designed to do. Our guest today is Darcy Luoma.

Show Notes:"To thy own self be true." Have you ever pondered on what this oft quoted saying from Shakesphere's Hamlet means? Better yet, how have you come to better know yourself? For me I've done at least half a dozen different personality quizzes, strength finder tests, and purpose discovery worksheets.  Each one has been helpful, but, for me personally, it's been the culmination of all of these together coupled with journaling and frequent reflection that's allowed me to better come to see myself, and as I have done this work I've come to believe that this process of coming to see ourselves more clearly is a vital part of our own individual journey through life. Our guest today has gone through the work to know herself and that work that has completely changed the course of her life. Our guest today is Liz Pessaran.  Liz is a Licensed Therapist, Life Coach and Speaker who helps people around the world let go of what they “should” do and embrace what they feel “connected to”. Ultimately thriving in their purpose. She helps folks walk away from their unfilled jobs and lifestyles and step into their dreams and cultivate the life they always desired. With nearly a decade of counseling experience, Liz utilizes her unique skill set to guide women to tap into their deep soul so they can shatter the box of limited belief and embrace their inner magic.  Liz has a Masters in Counseling Psychology and is trained as a Life Coach with the Beautiful You Life Coaching Academy. She currently resides in beautiful Tennessee with her husband and dog, and loves to travel often.

Show Notes:If you are a person of faith, no matter your concept of God and faith, what role does your faith in God play in your path towards your success? For me personally it's impacted the goals I have chosen to pursue, my view of what success is, my feelings about money, and more. For our guest today, her faith in God has influenced her own journey every step of the way. So much so that she now hosts a very successful podcast focused on faith and strives to live every day so she can be a little pencil in God's hands. Our guest today is Morgan Jones. Morgan is the host of the All In podcast and works as a senior content producer for Deseret Book. She previously wrote for the Deseret News where she published more than 480 stories.

Show Notes:What comes to mind when you hear the word freeloader? What about mooch? Parasite? Slacker? Or deadbeat? No matter what came to mind, it likely wasn't something nice. But at the end of the day we all know what it means: someone who takes advantage of the kindness and charity of others who shouldn't.  And almost universally we wouldn't want to be described like that. But the problem is that none of us really is a “lone wolf”. We all need each other. So how do we appropriately accept and even at times elicit help from others without becoming that freeloader we all despise?Well our guests today were given a lesson, or better said six little lessons, in how to give and receive help when in less than four years they went from a young married couple with no kids to parents of six and they had to learn how to be willing to receive help in order to just keep things afloat and, later, the value of returning the favor. Dallin & Alyssa McEwen's story began when they were 12 years old leading them to finally be in the same place at the same time in college. They've been married for 8 years. The first year spent playing college sports and the next two spent trying to grow their family. After a successful first round of IVF they had twin girls join the crew. 18 months later came what they believed to be the biggest surprise of their life when their little boy was born. But then a year and a half later, they got pregnant with triplets!  If you're still doing the math that's 6 kids in 3 years. As they say, their life is busy and chaotic and filled with love, giggles and a lot of diapers. They wouldn't change their circumstance for the world, but instead have jumped two feet in to making the day to day not just manageable but enjoyable. On the show today we discuss the following:Who are Dallin & Alyssa and what do they do (4:08)How they have 6 kids ages 4 and under (5:43)What is life like? (10:17)How structure helps Dallin & Alyssa thrive (12:51)Learning how to allow others to serve them (14:35)Dallin & Alyssa's annual ritual that keeps their lines of communication open (20:57)How they make time for each other every day (25:53)How Dallin uses the financial pressure of life with 6 small kids to make him better professionally (29:33)How Alyssa became an Instagram Influencer (38:16)How Alyssa handles social media trolls (44:08)How Alyssa balances being authentic and protecting her children (46:36)What does it mean to them to be a Contender (51:52)How to learn more about Dallin & Alyssa:Dallin's LinkedInAlyssa's Instagram (alyssa_mcewen)Additional Books, Individuals, or Items Discuss in the show:Marriage Communication Book: For All Eternity by John L.

August 31, 2015 - In our last episode of August, we introduce you to our first History Author Show correspondent: Amanda Read. Amanda Read grew up across the States and overseas as an Army brat before her family settled on Fair Hill Farms in Alabama. She graduated from Troy University Magna Cum Laude in 2013 with a Bachelor of Science in History and a minor in Political Science. She's done voice-over work on previous shows, performing dramatic readings from war diaries and the letters of First Lady Dolley Madison. Amanda has a love of old fashioned things, from dipping pens to vintage dresses. She even dresses her horse in period tack. She is passionate about two historical figures in particular: Isaac Newton and Harvey Wiley. Keep up with Amanda’s wide range of work at AmandaRead.com, LukeHistorians.com, or on Twitter @SincerelyAmanda. While we're meeting Amanda, we also enjoy her first interview: A chat with Jim Leeke, author of Matty Boy: A Civil War Novel for Young Readers. Amanda seemed perfect for this conversation. She not only counts both Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee as ancestors, but she's the eldest of nine children. We'll also hear from Jim Leeke again on a book for adults: Nine Innings for the King: The Day Wartime London Stopped for Baseball, July 4, 1918.  You can follow Jim on Twitter @9Innings4King, or visit his website at SamsLeague.Blogspot.com.
