Podcasts about Be Happy

Be A Warrior: Closing Season Five, Trusting What Comes Next As I sit down to record this episode, it honestly feels surreal. This is the final episode of 2025 and the close of Season Five of Be-YOU-tiful Adaptive Warrior. Five years. 210 episodes in all! When I say that out loud, it stops me in my tracks a little. What started as a quiet nudge on my heart has grown into something that now feels woven into my life, my healing, and my purpose. My 2025 year in review If you've been with me on this journey for a while, thank you. Truly. You are part of this family. And if you're new here, welcome. I hope you'll stick around—because Season Six starts next week, and I can hardly believe I get to say that. When I launched this podcast, I didn't have a master plan. I wasn't chasing perfection, production polish, or algorithms. I was chasing meaning. My prayer from the very beginning was simple: If this reaches one person—if it brings hope, peace, or strength to someone in the middle of chaos—then it's worth it. This podcast exists because of my faith, my lived experience, and the road that brought me here—one that forever changed on December 19th, 2018. That was the day I chose an elective above-knee amputation after five years of failed surgeries following a taekwondo accident. Five years of fighting my own body. Five years of pain, loss, and unanswered questions. My TaeKwonDo time, pre-amputation If you've never heard my full amputation story, I shared it back in Season One. And honestly, as I step into Season Six, I may revisit it again—because time gives perspective, and perspective gives depth. My first full year as an amputee was 2019, and I set goals like my life depended on it. And in many ways, it did. I hit every single one. I skied again. I surfed. I water skied. I hiked. I rode horses. I proved to myself, my doctors, my family—and maybe the world—that I wasn't disabled. I was differently abled. But once I checked every box, something unexpected happened. I felt empty. That emptiness wasn't failure—it was calling. I realized I wasn't meant to keep all of that hard-earned wisdom to myself. I wasn't meant to just do life again. I was meant to share it. That's where this podcast was born. I'll be honest—I don't love listening to myself talk. I don't script these episodes. I don't cut out the pauses or clean up the edges. There's an intro, there's an outro, and everything in between is real. I show up as a mom, a wife, an amputee, a human still figuring it out. This podcast is raw on purpose—because life is raw. As this year closes, we're also shifting seasons symbolically. If you follow the Chinese calendar, we're leaving the Year of the Snake and entering the Year of the Horse. And if you know me at all, you know how much that resonates. Horses have become central to my healing and my heart. As a little girl growing up in the suburbs of Chicago, I dreamed of horses, but access and finances made it unrealistic. Life had other plans. It wasn't until after I lost my leg that horses came back into my life in a powerful way. I reached out to a friend who worked with rescue horses, and something clicked—deeply and instantly. That connection led me to become certified in horse training, advanced training, and most recently equine therapy. Horses taught me regulation, presence, trust, and stillness in ways nothing else ever had—especially after trauma. Now, I work with people who are searching for grounding, healing, and reconnection to their bodies, especially after limb loss. The Year of the Horse represents freedom, movement, soul searching, and wellness. And honestly, I can't think of a better theme for what's ahead. I don't know exactly what this year will bring—but I know I'm ready to meet it. If you've followed me for any length of time, you know I don't believe in New Year's resolutions. I think the phrase itself sets us up to fail. Words carry power. When we label something as temporary or flimsy, our minds treat it that way. By February, resolutions fade, gyms empty out, and people convince themselves they'll “start again later.” So instead, I believe in fresh starts. Turning a page. New perspective. And one of my favorite end-of-year rituals is choosing a word—or a short phrase—to guide the year ahead. Not a checklist. A compass. Last year, my words were ‘Be Present’. And those words carried me through one of the most challenging years of my life. In May, I traveled to Boston to see if I qualified for an experimental procedure and revision surgery. In June, I had surgery. July through September were filled with healing, setbacks, crutches, fittings, and learning my body all over again. Through it all, I stayed present. I documented the journey. I let myself feel it. And when the holidays arrived—busy, beautiful, chaotic—I stayed present there too. I soaked up baking, gift-making, family moments, and even the exhaustion. I welcomed January's slower rhythm with gratitude instead of guilt. This year, my word found me quietly—in church, listening to our pastor speak. My word for the coming year is ‘Trust”. That word is heavy in the best way. Trusting the process. Trusting the people around me. Trusting my body as it continues to change. Trusting God's timing—even when it doesn't match my own. I like control. I like schedules. I like certainty. And trust requires letting go. It's a trust fall—stepping back and believing you'll be caught. My prosthetic journey is still unfolding. My leg continues to change. A new socket is likely coming soon. Nothing feels finished or neat right now—and that's okay. This year, I'm choosing to stop forcing outcomes and start allowing space. If something is meant to be, it will unfold. And if it isn't, that doesn't mean it was a failure. Sometimes closed doors are protection. Sometimes the blessing only makes sense in hindsight. So here's my invitation to you. As we sit in this quiet space between years, I want you to choose a word or phrase of your own. Something that speaks to where you are—not where you think you should be. Be honest. Reflect. Meditate on it. Ask yourself where you struggled this year and where you want to grow—not from shame, but from curiosity. Write your word down. Put it somewhere visible. Make it your screensaver. Stick it on your mirror. Tell someone you trust. Accountability matters. Growth requires reflection—and sometimes reminders. And remember this: you are not meant to be at the same place as everyone else. We rise and fall at different times so we can lift each other when it's needed. Start with yourself. Speak kindly to yourself. Life is too short for your own inner voice to be your harshest critic. You are already enough. Growth is not about fixing yourself—it's about expanding into who you already are. As I close this chapter, I want to thank you for being here. For listening. For trusting me with your time and your heart. If this podcast gave you even one moment of hope or clarity this year, then it has done its job. Season Six is coming. New challenges are coming. A virtual race is on the horizon. And the Year of the Horse is inviting us forward—with strength, freedom, and trust. Until next year—keep showing up, keep listening to your heart, and trust the process. And as always, Be Healthy, Be Happy, Be YOU!!! Much love,

What makes someone quit a six-figure advertising career to write books that help people think differently? In this episode of Legendary Leaders, host Cathleen O'Sullivan sits down with Karen Salmansohn—bestselling author, behavioral change expert, and the creative force behind NotSalmon.com—whose sharp wit and mortality-driven wisdom will make you rethink everything on your to-do list. Karen shares why fun isn't frivolous—it's fuel. She breaks down the science of why laughter literally shakes ideas loose, explains why her "e-pee-phanies" in the bathroom cracked more creative codes than caffeine ever did, and reveals the mortality marble jar that transformed how she spends every single month. With disarming honesty, she opens up about hiding her intelligence to be liked and finally "coming out" as a smart person in her sixties. Together, Cathleen and Karen explore the fatal flaw of to-do lists, why your identity is the puppet master of your habits, and how writing your own eulogy can wake you up from a "near-life experience." This conversation is for anyone who's tired of sleepwalking through their days and ready to design a life their future self will actually thank them for.   Episode Timeline: 00:05:36 How funny are you? Karen's son vs. Jon Stewart's verdict  00:06:34 Fun as a high-performance fuel (and meditation on steroids)  00:09:23 Manifestation, energy, and why confidence attracts results  00:14:48 From advertising to authorship: quitting the senior VP job her parents hated  00:19:38 The Häagen-Dazs theory on productivity: only pick what excites you  00:22:35 Procrastination strategies: turn your pain into purpose 00:27:03 Writing your eulogy: the wake-up call that changes everything  00:29:41 The fatal flaw of to-do lists (and why you need a to-die list)  00:33:31 The seven core values that minimize regret: A to G  00:38:31 Identity-based statements: "I am loving, so I find a way to Connecticut"  00:44:34 Feisty then, feisty now: how Karen sold the book her agent didn't want  00:46:33 Hiding her intelligence to be liked, then embracing it fully in her sixties 00:57:14 Hedonia vs. eudaimonia: why happiness isn't the goal  01:00:16 Life as a den of pleasure AND a laboratory for growth  01:12:51 Near-life experiences: when you're scrolling instead of living  01:16:07 The mortality marble jar: 437 marbles and a monthly reckoning   Key Takeaway: Your Identity Is the Puppet Master of Your Habits: Who you think you are determines what you actually do. If you walk around thinking "I'm sloppy," you'll do sloppy things. If you think "I'm a loving person," you'll find a way to get to Connecticut for your friend's birthday—even without a car. Studies show people who identified as "voters" were three times more likely to show up at the polls than those who just heard clever slogans. Change your identity statement, change your behavior.  To-Do Lists Prioritize Productivity, Not Meaning—That's Their Fatal Flaw: You can check off every box on your to-do list and still waste your life. Karen created a "to-die list" alongside her to-do list—a place for meaningful habits tied to core values, not just tasks. The top regrets of the dying? Working too hard, not spending time with friends, not allowing themselves to be happier, not living true to themselves. Your to-die list is the bridge between current you and the person your eulogy will describe.  Life Is a Den of Pleasure AND a Laboratory for Growth—You Need Both: We're addicted to instant gratification—scrolling, avoiding discomfort, waiting for "someday." But here's the truth: you can't seize every day. Aristotle said the goal isn't living pain-free; it's learning lessons that grow you into your best self. Emotional diversity is what makes you flourish. Instead of "seize the day," try "seize every other day." The moments in the laboratory of growth—where you get curious about your patterns and repair what keeps repeating—are what make the pleasure meaningful. The Mortality Marble Jar: Math That Shakes You Awake: Karen calculated how many months she has left if she lives to 100 (she promised her son). She bought that many marbles, put them in a jar, and every month she moves one marble to her "past" jar. The first time she did it, she couldn't remember what she'd done that month. Depressing. Now she intentionally plans meaningful experiences—dancing with friends, theater nights, time with her son—so when she holds that marble, she has something to report. The question that changes everything: "Is this really worth a marble of my life?"   About Karen Salmansohn: Karen Salmansohn is a bestselling author, behavioral change expert, and the founder of NotSalmon.com, where 1.5 million followers get their daily dose of psychology wrapped in wit. A former senior VP creative director who walked away from advertising in her twenties—despite her parents' protests—she's sold over 2 million books including How to Be Happy, Dammit and Think Happy, and her work has appeared everywhere from Oprah's platform to Psychology Today.Her latest book, Your To-Die-For Life, tackles mortality, regret, and the art of living intentionally—complete with a marble jar in her kitchen that tracks every month she has left if she lives to 100. Karen teaches that fun isn't a bonus, it's fuel, and that your identity is the puppet master of your habits.   Connect with Karen Salmansohn: Website (NotSalmon): https://www.notsalmon.com/  Book (Your To Die For Life): https://yourtodieforlife.com/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/notsalmon/  Twitter/X: https://x.com/Notsalmon  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Notsalmon/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/NotsalmonTV  Substack: https://notsalmon.substack.com/    Connect with Cathleen O'Sullivan:  Business: https://cathleenosullivan.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cathleen-osullivan/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/legendary_leaders_cathleenos/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@LegendaryLeaderswithCathleenOS   FOLLOW LEGENDARY LEADERS ON APPLE, SPOTIFY OR WHEREVER YOU LISTEN TO YOUR PODCASTS.

Knowing Your Limits: When to Hold and When to Push Onward I'm recording this episode from a place that looks very different than my usual setup. We're away on a family getaway that was supposed to be a snowy ski vacation, but when I look outside, all I see are brown mountains and sunshine. Not exactly the winter wonderland we imagined. Still, we're here, together, enjoying the time, and as the year winds down and the holidays rush in, I felt like this was the perfect moment to pause and share something that's been sitting heavy—and meaningful—on my heart. As you know, I tend to share lessons I'm actively learning myself, and this week's lesson came straight from the ski slopes. I ski as an amputee. I ski on one leg, using outriggers, and while it looks empowering and inspiring in photos and videos, the truth is that it is anything but easy. Every single time I clip in, no matter how long I've been doing this, I still get butterflies. I still hope my body will hold up. I still pray for the best outcome and for enough strength to get me down the mountain safely. I've always been someone who pushes hard. When I lost my leg in December of 2018, I got my first prosthetic in late March and barely had time to adjust before we were headed on a family ski trip in April. I had planned to sit on the sidelines, but I told my husband early on that I wanted to try skiing as an amputee. That trip was my first time learning to ski as a three-tracker—one ski on my sound leg and two outriggers with tiny skis on the ends. It was intense. It demanded everything from my good leg, my core, my upper body, and my mental focus. Fast forward to now, and while I have more experience, I also have more wisdom. Yesterday, I went out for my first run of this trip, and it was a long one. I chose a blue run instead of the easier option, and I pushed myself hard. I made it down without falling, and I was proud of that—but my body was absolutely fried. My quad, calf, foot arch, hands, and shoulders were screaming. My grip on the outriggers was barely there, and I knew that if I went again, fatigue could turn into injury. The old version of me—five or six years ago—would have pushed through anyway. I would have ignored the warning signs and kept going. But yesterday, something different happened. I looked at my husband and said, “I'm done. I want to end on a high note.” And that was enough. Self-preservation won, and for the first time in a long time, I listened to my body without guilt. That decision mattered more than I realized in the moment. Because what I'm learning—and what I want you to hear—is that your best in this moment doesn't have to be your best ever. Your best is enough when it honors where you are right now. Strength isn't always pushing harder. Sometimes strength is knowing when to stop. As amputees, our bodies are constantly negotiating limits. When you rely on one good leg, you have to be mindful of how far you push before fatigue compromises safety. Yesterday, my head wanted more, but my body was very clear: this was enough. And instead of feeling defeated, I chose to feel proud. What you don't see in highlight videos is the pain, the fear, the intense focus it takes to stay upright and in control. You don't see the internal battle between wanting to prove yourself and needing to protect yourself. And that's something I think so many of us struggle with—especially when we compare ourselves to others or even to past versions of ourselves. This year, I'm not the same person I was last spring when I was in great shape, hitting the gym, and doing one-legged squats. I had revision surgery this summer. I've been learning a new socket, adapting to a new prosthetic, and giving my body time to heal. That meant less time training and more time resting. And while rest came at the cost of muscle mass and endurance, it also gave me other gifts—healing, reflection, time at home, time with my animals, and space to process everything my body has been through. We are not static beings. Even with the same injury, we are different depending on the season of life we're in. And during the holidays especially, it's easy to beat yourself up for not doing “enough.” But the truth is, everyone's circumstances are different. Some of you can't get to the gym. Some of you are waiting on a fitting, a surgery, or relief from pain. Some days, just breathing is the win—and that is okay. I know amputees who avoid connecting with others because they feel like they're falling short. My message to you is this: do what you can with what you have, where you are. Comparison steals joy and progress. The valley you're in right now does not dictate the rest of your life. If you're disappointed in yourself because you know you can do more and you're choosing not to, then have that honest conversation with yourself and start shifting your mindset. Change the internal dialogue. Set goals. Dream again. But if you're in a season of healing, pain, or waiting, give yourself grace. This moment is not permanent. Yesterday, I skied one run—and that one run was enough. I walked away proud, safe, and encouraged instead of broken down and discouraged. Tomorrow, I'll go out again with confidence and clarity. And when spring comes, I know exactly what I need to do to be stronger. Being an amputee is hard. Some days are brutal. But you are not failing because you rest, and you are not weak because you pause. Be proud of where you are. Be proud of your scars. Know that you are doing the best you can with the situation you've been given—and that is enough. This season will pass. Keep moving forward. Keep honoring your body. And remember, the warrior within you doesn't disappear when you slow down—it grows wiser. I hope you have a beautiful holiday season. And I'll be back again soon before this year comes to a close. And as always, Be Healthy, Be Happy, Be YOU!!! Much love,

This Holiday season we have been tapping into two main things to make our Holidays Happier. Thanksgiving (the Holiday as well as the mentality) and our inner child. The last several episodes we have been focusing on the Thanksgiving side. So this episode we will be getting back to our inner child as we talk about that Holiday classic, and one of my favorites, The Little Drummer Boy. We will also be talking about my favorite Drummer Boys as well. Listen and share, and bring out the inner child in yourself as well as someone else.

Traveling The Yellow Brick Road of Amputee Life   In this episode, I want to talk about one of the biggest learning curves after limb loss — getting fitted for a prosthesis. Nobody really tells you how challenging this part can be. You think, “Okay, I'll get my prosthetic leg or arm, strap it on, and get back to life.” But if only it were that simple, right? The truth is, it's a process — one that takes time, patience, and a whole lot of communication with your prosthetist. When I first started, I honestly thought it was going to be pretty straightforward. They'd take some measurements, make the socket, I'd try it on, and off I'd go. But wow, did I learn quickly that's not how it works. Every limb is unique. Every body changes — sometimes from morning to night. So that “perfect fit” we all hope for doesn't just happen once and stay that way. It's something that evolves. And that means working with your prosthetist becomes this back-and-forth relationship. There's a lot of give and take involved. They're the experts in design and fit, but you are the expert in how it feels — and that matters just as much. Now, I'll admit — in the beginning, I had my fair share of frustration. When the socket rubbed wrong or my limb was sore, I'd get upset and think, “Why isn't this working?” It was easy to blame the prosthesis or think the prosthetist did something wrong. But with time, I started realizing there was a little user error in there too. Sometimes I wasn't putting it on right. Sometimes I didn't pay attention to small aches that turned into bigger problems. And sometimes… I just didn't know what I didn't know. That's a big part of this journey — learning to take accountability where it's due. Not in a shameful way, but in an empowering way. Once we start owning our part in the process, things really start improving. We ask more questions. We write down what we are feeling. We pay attention to pressure spots and skin changes. And most importantly, we communicate all of that clearly with our prosthetist. Change happens! Teamwork and communication are key!   Because here's the thing — they can't feel what you feel. They can't fix what they don't know about. So, if something doesn't feel right, say it. Speak up. Be honest, even if it feels awkward. That's how you get the best outcome. If you're new to being an amputee, remember this: it's okay to not have it all figured out. You're learning. This whole process — from fitting to comfort to walking confidently again — it's a marathon, not a sprint. You'll get there. Just keep showing up, keep asking questions, and keep working with your prosthetist as a team. Because at the end of the day, this isn't just about a prosthesis fitting right — it's about you finding your rhythm again, your confidence, your life. You are a warrior! It's time to unleash that warrior and gain back your independence. Have a beautiful week ahead, and as always, Be Healthy, Be Happy, Be YOU!!! Much love,

Enjoying Your Life RIGHT NOW   "Want to go for a drive?" This simple phrase sends my pups into a frenzy! Their excitement is overflowing and their  joy is tangible! This energy is what we should be living for each day, but when we are struggling we find ourselves consumed and can only see the problems, to the positives. I remember coming back home after losing my mom. I had spent a full month back in Illinois helping my family navigate our loss and returning to my life here in Arizona seemed surreal. My mom and I were best friends, I called her everyday, mostly just for small talk but she was a great listener in times of need. I vividly remember one day, not long after the funeral, driving in my car and thinking, "I need to call monad tell her about...." when my heart dropped and I realized for the first time that she wasn't ever going to be there again for my call. At that moment I felt the whole world must see the tears streaming down my face and hear my heart ripping in two. At the red light I looked to my left and to my right at the cars on either side of me. I knew they had to be seeing my pain, wondering what could be making me this sad, but instead I saw people in their own world, signing along to music, talking on their phone, laughing with their friends. No one saw my pain! They were living their life, and my life was at a stand still. That was the moment that I realized that no matter what I was going thro9ugh, the world kept going, the hours kept passing, the days kept moving forward. I have never felt so alone in my sorrow as I did in that split second at a red light. What I learned was that no matter what was happening in my life, the world kept turning and I was there and I had purpose. I firmly believe that each morning I wake and have breath in my lungs that I am to serve a purpose. That is the day when my thinking changed and for the better. Yes, I need to deal with my pain, but I cannot let it run my life and destroy my and my goals. Even when things had hit rock bottom for me, with my mom's passing, I had a family, healthy sons, a loving husband, my father. I may have had a bum leg, but I also had creativity, energy, drive, and passion.   My dogs, here,  just living in the present. No looking back and no worrying about tomorrow. My point: No matter what struggles we face in life, we have even more things to be grateful for. We have people in our lives worth fighting for, and we have PURPOSE! So often we forget to find joy in the simple things, especially when we feel frustrated, in pain, or fearful, but they are still their, it's just that our focus has shifted away from good and positive to negativity and al that is falling apart. This week, I want you to find your joy again. I want you to see past your pain and struggles and find the purpose joy my dogs find in an open window on a drive. Find the beauty in the little things and count your blessings!     This week our battlecry is simple: Seek the positive and blessings in your life. Find joy in the small things, don't allow negativity, pain, and fear to derail you so much that you forget to see all the good around you. This is a choice, and one we must profess everyday, lest we forget. Be strong, dear warriors, and find your purpose and passion. This valley will end, as all cycles do in life, just don't sit their waiting for the struggle to end to find happiness, you must seek it now, and when you do you will find that your situation won't feel as bleak and hope will rise up in you.   So get after it and seek the positive. Don't wait to enjoy the drive. Get out there, roll down those windows and let the wind hit your face. I bet you'll feel more alive than ever and find inspiration in your life once again. I pray you find joy in the little things this week and until next time, Be Healthy, Be Happy, Be YOU!!!   Much love,

Navigating Life When It Falls Off The Rails   Sometimes life takes a turn you never saw coming. One moment everything feels steady, predictable, maybe even comfortable — and then suddenly, the tracks shift, and you're left wondering how to move forward. As an amputee, I've had my share of moments where life completely fell off the rails. Moments that tested not just my strength, but my heart. Let's talk about what it really feels like when life doesn't go the way you hoped, and how I've learned to keep a positive heart posture even in the middle of the mess. I'll share the honest truth — that staying positive isn't about pretending everything's fine. It's about choosing, every single day, to look for the light even when the darkness feels closer. It's about deciding to see possibility instead of limitation, hope instead of defeat. I talk about what helped me shift my mindset from frustration to faith, from “why me?” to “what now?” Because life isn't about avoiding the derailments — it's about how we respond when they happen. I've discovered that when we meet life with an open heart, even the hardest seasons can become our greatest teachers. Having a positive heart posture doesn't mean you won't have bad days. It means you show up anyway. You breathe through the pain, you give yourself grace, and you keep moving forward — even if it's just one step at a time. Through tears, laughter, and maybe a few tough lessons, I've learned that our strength isn't built when everything's going right; it's built in the moments when everything feels like it's falling apart. My hope is that this episode reminds you that no matter where you are in your journey, you can start again. You can choose to rebuild, to believe, and to live with a heart that stays open to joy, even when life doesn't go as planned. Because sometimes, when life falls off the rails, it's just leading us to a new and unexpected destination — one that's even more beautiful than before. This week I want you to end your day writing down 3 things you are grateful for. Do this every day and see if it doesn't help you shift your perspective and get you into a more positive mindset and heart posture. Who knows, this may become your new norm and a habit you carry through life! Sometimes you'll find it hard, in the midst of struggle, to see the positive but if you really search I know you can find 3 things that are positives in your life. Dig deep and search your heart. I pray you have a blessed week ahead, and as always, Be Healthy, Be Happy, Be YOU!! Much love,

Taking Action During "Construction"     We are all a work in progress. That's life, right? We all have those moments where you feel you are working on something in your life. Your health, a career, or relationships, you name it. But what do you do in these moments? How do you continue to grow and better yourself during the construction? It all starts within you. We begin by working on ourselves. Right now, while I would rather be working out, being with my horses, and hiking, I can barely walk around my house due to having to use a test socket that is uncomfortable and rubbing me raw. And during this time, I am feeling miserable! I was trying to kick start my health since surgery but have hit moments where I need to work on patience, and heal. Now I feel so far removed from being in shape and that takes a toll on my mental game. Now that I'm in this situation I cannot get to my horses because it's too hard to walk on normal surfaces, imagine walking across uneven ground of rock, sand and dirt.     This is my time to focus on my thoughts and heart. This is a time I am put into a slow down phase and being led to work on what I can.   How do we go about working on ourselves? We start with seeing the good in the world, seeing the good in our situation and finding joy in the moment despite your circumstances. Next we can assume the best, meaning when we assume the best in a person we can control our emotions much better which leads us to less anger and frustration and more joy. Finally, we must act!       This week we must ACT! Not when we feel it or when joyfulness is in us, but rather right now! Maybe you are struggling or hurting right now. This is the time to look outside of yourself and your situation and reach out to another human, your neighbor, to spread joy and positivity. Maybe you check in on a neighbor, share a conversation and a smile. Take care of your support system around you: your spouse, family member, a friend. Let them know you care and are grateful for all they have done for you. Maybe you see someone struggling in a parking lot, getting groceries in their car. Spend time spreading love and helpfulness by giving them a hand. It doesn't take money or a lot of time, it just takes your attention and to show someone, "Hey, I see you. Thank you for all you do. Let me help you".   Whatever you do, do in love, with patience, kindness, and selflessly. When we give of ourselves, we share love, we show our humanity, and we spread goodness into the world. The world could use that right about now. Imagine if everyone looked inward and made changes on themselves. Imagine the kind of world we would live in with that kind of kindness being spread! Wouldn't that be something! So, Dear Warriors, what are you going to do while you are under construction this week? How can you make a difference in spite of your circumstances? When you focus on others you take the focus off of yourself and it allows you to get out of your own head and release what has been holding you back in your "construction time" and place it elsewhere. What you will see is that your life will be enriched and fuller. Your joy will overflow when you bring joy to others. Try it and get back to me! Let me know how it's going. I'm rooting for you, Warriors! You are strong.  You are special. You are loved! Have a blessed week ahead, and as always, Be Healthy, Be Happy, Be YOU!!! Much love,

A Journey of a Thousand Miles Must Begin With a Single Step -Lao Tzu.   Traveling is exciting but can also be stressful. Packing the right clothing for the weather, the events, and what makes you feel amazing. You try to pack neatly and concisely so you can pack everything you want and need. As an amputee, things become a little more confusing and worrisome. What will you need? What MUST come with? What if this happens or that happens? All of a sudden, packing and traveling becomes almost impossible. How will you ever pack for every situation with the space you have? There are so many rules with TSA and airports. There are so many unknowns in hotels. Knowing how to navigate these specifics with travel comes with experience. You learn more, for your unique situation, as you go but we can also help each other as we gain our own understanding and experiences. Today I share my tips and tricks and my own experiences from the years of traveling, especially by plane, to help you on your own journey in hopes that you can enjoy your time more and worry less. As you travel more you will become less worried about the process and be able to focus on the trip, and enjoy making memories. You will find ways to make each trip a little more efficient and packing a little more streamlined. If you are traveling soon, by plane, give yourself plenty of time the first few trips so you don't feel rushed or miss your flight. Don't be too proud to use a wheelchair as you go through airports, and make sure you bring your basic amputee necessities. I kept a list that I accumulated as I went (things I realized I needed but never thought of or forgot in the beginning), this way I could check off the items I needed each time I packed for a trip. It eventually became unnecessary after traveling many times over the years. Traveling should be a way to unwind and enjoy life after all you've been through. When you're ready to begin travels, don't be held back by fears, just charge forward and live! It's time to experience life and move forward from your amputation. Go enjoy the world and make memories! "A ship in harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are built for." -John A. Shedd     You were built for more than sitting around and wishing for more. You were meant to experience it! Go out and enjoy these moments now and chase down those dreams!   Go out, Warriors, and explore the world. You deserve it! And as always, Be Healthy, Be Happy, Be YOU!!!   Much love,    

In this inspiring talk, Make Up Your Mind to Be Happy, Rev Lee Wolak shares how true happiness is not something you wait for—it's a conscious decision you make in the present moment. You'll discover how happiness is not dependent on external circumstances but is a powerful state of mind that can be chosen and cultivated daily. When you decide, “No matter what happens, I will be happy,” you reclaim your inner power, align with spiritual truth, and create a calm center in the middle of life's storms. This talk explores practical spirituality, inner peace, and the freedom that comes from living as the master of your own mind.

In this episode of PhotoWork with Sasha Wolf, Sasha is joined by legendary photo critic, curator, and collector Vince Aletti. Vince reflects on his early days as a music critic for Rolling Stone before joining the Village Voice as an arts editor, where he also began writing about photography. Later, as the photography critic at The New Yorker, Vince became a deeply admired voice in the field. Photographers hoped he would write about their work because his reviews were always perceptive, beautifully written, and profoundly generous of spirit. Sasha and Vince also revisit a personal milestone: Vince was the first critic to review an exhibition at Sasha's gallery, featuring photographs by the late Paul McDonough—a review that helped launch both Paul's career and Sasha's as a gallerist. In addition, they explore Vince's unparalleled collection of photo ephemera, a lifelong passion that has not only preserved vital archives of lesser-known work but has also inspired acclaimed photobooks and exhibitions. https://www.newyorker.com/contributors/vince-aletti https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vince_Aletti Vince Aletti is a writer and curator based in New York City. His writings on music and photography have been published widely.

His writings have also appeared in The New Yorker, Artforum, and Vogue Italia, among many other publications. His book Issues: A History of Photography in Fashion Magazines was published by Phaidon in 2019. The Drawer was published by Self Publish, Be Happy in September 2022 and went on to win the 2023 Aperture/Paris Photo Photobook of the Year award.  An exhibition at White Columns inspired by The Drawer in 2024 was Aletti's fifth collaboration with the gallery, following on from his 2008 exhibition Male: Work from the Collection of Vince Aletti; the 2014 exhibition of Robert Kitchen's work, and the 2019 exhibition of Ed Baynard's work (both curated by Aletti); and the 2008 White Columns publication of Aletti's collected writings on disco, Disco File, which was subsequently republished in an expanded edition by DJ History/D.A.P.
