April is Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month. Our guest, Rajia Abdelaziz, is the Co-Founder and CEO of invisaWear, the best safety jewelry and fashion accessories technology on the market.From her own personal experience, Rajia understands how important it is to feel safe. She was walking to her car after an event at college, when a car full of guys pulled up next to her, yelling frightening comments at her, and when one of the guys started to get out to take action, Rajia was able to run and get in her car, unharmed. However, the feeling of being extremely helpless did not go away. Which is why, at just 21 years old, Rajia and her Co-Founder, Ray Hamilton, developed invisaWear, a life-saving technology for jewelry and fashion accessories. invisaWear's smart jewelry and accessories allow users to instantly connect with friends, family and authorities in case of an emergency. They look like necklaces, bracelets, keychains, fitness bands, and even scrunchies… but they are actually safety devices!With a double press of the button on the accessory, ADT Security sends a discreet alert containing the GPS location to up to 5 pre-configured emergency contacts and optionally alerts authorities. ADT is able to connect directly with 9-1-1 dispatchers at the nearest dispatch department and send help if needed. In just two years, Rajia and Ray developed the hardware and software, got the app approved on both iOS and Android, and over the following 3 years raised $3 million in funding to develop invisaWear's wide range of smart jewelry and accessories.With over 560k followers and 32 million views, invisaWear's TikTok channel consistently educates viewers on sexual assault awareness and other protective and defensive measures folks can take to stay safe.Rajia is a BostInno 25 Under 25 Recipient and has a Dual degree (B.S.) in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.

Greg has worked with incredible companies advising, creating partnerships, and putting deals together for Verizon, Comcast, T-Mobile, MasterCard, Disney, P&G, Bank of America, Nestle, ADT Security, LG Electronics, Cox, Whirlpool, and many more. Greg is extremely passionate about creating a world of ethical connections between both humans and technology. He emphasizes how virtual and physical experiences are paired together in order to enhance the human experience. Rather than having either virtual or physical experiences, why not have both? Greg discusses how physical and virtual can work together to create connectivity, engagement, as well as a space to improve mental health. Although he acknowledges that even during the pandemic, technology facilitated conversations and connections that couldn't be made in person, there still is an aspect of distraction that comes with our every day online interactions. He reminds us that the future of technology holds great possibilities for mobile devices, new emerging brands, as well as creating a world that we may not be able to comprehend yet. Some powerful takeaways from today's episode: “It's not either or, it's and”: virtual experiences are now gearing towards enhancing physical experiences In some ways, Covid facilitated a lot of technology growth such as Zoom, however, it also hindered a lot of advancements in technology When a brand becomes a part of a cultural movement , all bets are off and it can disrupt an entire industry Links: Greg Kahn's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/greg-kahn-580848/ THE RE:INVENTION EXCHANGE - for more Inspired Content, Blogs, Podcasts, Virtual Chats, or to buy a copy of my book RE:INVENT YOUR LIFE!

Knowing your enemy is crucial to defeating him. Satan works through accusation, deception, and temptation to keep us in bondage and prevent us from accomplishing God's will for our lives. But thank God for His Word which exposes Satan's tactics and gives us the power to overcome him every time!

In this episode we have two women from the U.S. who picked up their lives and moved to where their families come from. Paige Dygert moved to the Italian village of her ancestors.

The birthplace of her mother and is starting a new life just a hop, skip, and a jump from where her ancestors lived. What We Discuss Moving from the U.S. to Europe in search of something more Transitioning from law to online translations Turning a side-hustle into a full-fledged business Rediscovering your roots in the old country Getting citizenship abroad through heritage and ancestry Moving Abroad: What to do with your apartment or house How the death of a loved one can have a profound impact on the decisions we make moving forward The importance of downsizing before hitting refresh The pressures of life and how they negatively affect your health About Paige Paige Dygert is an attorney from the USA who worked for over 20 years in the Miami area as in-house counsel for large corporations such as ADT Security, Perry Ellis and Bacardi. In 2015 she decided she had had enough of the corporate life, moved to her ancestral village in Italy and started her own translation company. She is currently the founder of Online Legal Translations, and since her company is 100% virtual she enjoys spending half the year in Italy and half of the year traveling. Follow Paige on Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, Twitter, Pinterest, and Instagram. About Katherine Life in California was great. Katherine had a longstanding political career and was married with three amazing children. Everything was picture-perfect. But life often takes unexpected turns. After being married for over 20 years, she and her husband divorced. She focused on her children and work, but life was no longer how she imagined it should be. Between work, being a single mother, and trying to keep everyone happy, the stress began to be too much and even began to affect her health. Life began to quickly pass her by and she had to make a change. When she was married, she and her husband dreamed of someday retiring to Spain. She decided to continue the dream without him. She was fortunate to have a Spanish mother, so she could move with Spanish citizenship. But moving has only been the beginning of the journey. Connect with Katherine on Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram.

Houston is one of the top cities in America for break-ins, but there are some things you can do to keep you and your family safe.Want to sell your home? Get a FREE home value reportWant to buy a home? Search all homes for saleToday I have a strange guest who requested to be here himself — Rob claims to be the president of the Houston Burglary Association, and he wants to share a few tips about his recent success in our area. Houston is one of the top cities in America for break-ins and home invasions, which Rob and his fellow robbers are thrilled about. His targets — or clients — make his job easy by leaving doors unlocked while they are away at work. Most robberies or home invasions take place between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., so make sure that your doors are locked. People who live in the suburbs often get lulled into a false sense of security and start to leave garage doors open or doors unlocked. Many homeowners do invest in security systems but neglect to set up sensors around the master bathroom window, which is a focal point for Rob and his colleagues.Don’t post about your vacations on social media.The good news is that Sean Collins from ADT Security makes business difficult for Rob the robber. Sean empowers his clients by providing knowledge and tips to help you prevent home break-ins or robberies. Unlike Rob, Sean works hard to keep you and your family safe. You don’t have to get in touch with Rob — just announce on Facebook that you are on vacation and he will be in touch with you. If you would like to stop Rob and other members of the Burglary Association from targeting your home, call Sean Collins at 713-382-9363 or email him at swcollins@adt.com. As always, if you have any real estate questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us. If anyone sees Rob the robber out and about, give me a call — I think he has my purse!
Scott Denholm spent the first part of his life on the west coast, then he moved east, and now he resides down south in Tennessee. This variety of experience has helped him develop an acute talent for understanding different people, which helps him greatly with his line of work developing track and trace programs for cannabis cultivators. He says it’s all about listening to what someone wants, to be able to figure out what they really need. After a stint in the Navy and time at ADT Security, Scott wouldn’t have ever imagined he would have found his way to the cannabis industry, but a consultant gig with the Marijuana Enforcement Division in Colorado set him on such a path, and now he’s implementing Franwell’s Metrc program in states all over the country to ensure their cannabis programs are efficiently and effectively regulated. Enjoy!
