In this powerful American Heart Month episode, Full Circle continues its commitment to heart health awareness with guest Ann Koeing — a former registered nurse, stroke survivor, mother of three, author, and volunteer with the American Heart Association.More than 20 years ago, shortly after giving birth to her third child, Ann suffered a life-altering stroke. As a medical professional, she understood the seriousness of what was happening — but nothing could fully prepare her for the journey ahead.Survival was only the beginning.Ann had to relearn how to walk, how to write, and how to perform everyday tasks many of us take for granted. Recovery was not just physical — it was emotional, mental, and deeply personal. As she navigated rehabilitation, she was also raising three young children. Rather than allowing that responsibility to overwhelm her, Ann chose to let her children become her inspiration. They became her reason to push forward on the hardest days, her motivation to heal, and her reminder that purpose still awaited her.During this episode, Ann shares:• What it was like to experience a stroke shortly after childbirth• How her background as a registered nurse shaped her understanding of her condition• The realities of stroke recovery — relearning mobility, handwriting, and independence• The emotional toll of recovering while parenting young children• The role of resilience, faith, and family support in long-term healing• Why heart disease and stroke awareness must be part of every woman's health conversationAnn's journey did not stop at recovery. She transformed her experience into advocacy, becoming a Go Red for Women Ambassador with the American Heart Association. She has shared her story at the Sacramento Go Red Luncheon and throughout the region, using her voice to educate others about the warning signs of heart disease and stroke in women.She also authored a book about her journey titled The Story I Wanted to Hear. In it, Ann shares the honest, unfiltered account of her stroke, rehabilitation, motherhood, and ultimate transformation. The book offers encouragement, practical insight, and hope for survivors and families navigating similar health crises.You can purchase Ann's book on Amazon hereThis episode reminds us that heart disease and stroke do not discriminate — even healthcare professionals are not immune. But with awareness, early action, community support, and resilience, survival can lead to purpose.Key Takeaways:• Stroke and heart disease can impact women at any stage of life, including postpartum• Knowing the warning signs can save lives• Rehabilitation requires patience, persistence, and support• Family can be a powerful motivator in recovery• Sharing your story can turn pain into purposeCall to Action:This American Heart Month, prioritize your heart health. Schedule your annual checkup. Know your numbers — blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar, and family history. Learn the warning signs of heart attack and stroke. If you are a new mother or supporting one, remember that postpartum health includes heart and stroke awareness.Purchase Ann's book, share this episode with someone you love, and consider supporting the American Heart Association's Go Red for Women campaign in your community.Subscribe to Ms. Wanda's Full Circle Radio on your favorite podcast platform and continue the conversation.

She encourages individuals to skip fad diets and instead focus on making small, sustainable adjustments in daily routines. These incremental changes, Chris says, build lifelong habits that lead to lasting results. Whether it's healthier food choices or more daily movement, Chris believes practical steps are the foundation of long-term well-being.  February 6, 2026, marks National Wear Red Day, a key event during American Heart Month focused on raising awareness about heart disease—the leading cause of death for women. Supporters across the nation are encouraged to wear red clothing, accessories, or lipstick, and to share information and resources about prevention. The American Heart Association's "Go Red for Women" campaign also encourages donations to fund research and advocacy. Participants often post photos on social media with the hashtags #WearRedDay and #OurHearts. National Wear Red Day highlights the importance of heart health, as more than 40% of women in the U.S. have some form of cardiovascular disease.

But there's one thing no amount of punchlines can fix, and I found myself walking straight into it one afternoon. I was hired to entertain a room full of employees… who had just been given some BAD news. https://www.TheWorkLady.com  Jan McInnis is a top change management keynote speaker, comedian, and funny motivational speaker who helps organizations use humor to handle change, build resilience, and strengthen leadership skills.

Marcy Syms has led a remarkable life, full of triumphs and tragedies.  Through a discussion of her new book, Leading with Respect: Adventures of an Off-Price Fashion Pioneer, host Bill Burke and Marcy cover subjects ranging from Marcy's upbringing, to overcoming bigotry and bullying in high school, to running her father's company and keeping it on track through the loss of two of her siblings.      Chapters: 00:00 Introduction & Leading with Respect  Bill Burke introduces Marcy Syms, CEO of The Syms Corporation, and her upcoming book “Leading with Respect.” Marcy discusses her father's motto “Don't let the bad guys win” and how it relates to being prepared and ensuring both sides of an encounter feel respected.  04:18 Customer Respect & Grandmother's Influence  Marcy explains how her father's tagline “an educated consumer is our best customer” was foundational to their company's success and built on respect for the customer. She also shares the significant influence of her Romanian immigrant grandmother, who instilled in her the importance of financial independence for young women.  09:12 Overcoming Antisemitism  Marcy recounts the overt antisemitism her family faced after moving to Westchester County, detailing the anxiety and fear it caused. She explains how she decided to ‘tough it out' like a job, overcompensating for the prejudice and becoming a rebel to challenge stereotypes.  13:47 Trailblazing & Joining the Family Business  Marcy discusses how she, as a 12-year-old, trailblazed by pushing for a Bat Mitzvah in her Conservative synagogue, which didn't traditionally hold them. She also explains her path to joining her father's business after being fired from her broadcasting job, finding excitement and fulfillment in the entrepreneurial world.  19:05 Business Innovation & Personal Resilience  Marcy describes the unique “automatic markdown price tag” marketing strategy that differentiated Syms stores, despite not being a profit center. She then discusses the immense personal resilience required to lead the company as CEO while simultaneously dealing with the tragic loss of her brother and sister within a year.  27:43 Courage, Values, and Philanthropy  Marcy emphasizes the importance of courage, even in small acts, and how it's linked to personal values. She reveals her strong aversion to bullies, a trait honed by her past experiences, and how her father's philanthropic vision led to the establishment of the Sy Syms Foundation.  33:25 Impactful Philanthropic Initiatives  Marcy details the foundation's unique philanthropic approach, supporting organizations like PEN America, the American Heart Association's “Go Red” campaign for women's heart health, and the Tannenbaum Foundation's anti-bullying initiatives. She also highlights their commitment to investigative journalism through NPR and scientific research at institutions like the Weissman Institute.  41:34 Lifelong Learning & Hot Water Strength  Marcy reflects on the Eleanor Roosevelt quote, “A woman is like a tea bag; you don't know her strength until she gets into hot water,” acknowledging her own life's challenges. She passionately advocates for lifelong learning as a key to longevity and a fulfilling life, drawing parallels to Jewish cultural inquisitiveness and the entrepreneurial spirit.
