She is an inspiration to me as I am a brand new homemaker and I believe her wisdom will be a blessing to many others."  I am so thankful that Sydney nominated her mom, Heather Price, who has been keeping a home full time for 30 years with her husband.

Today, a member of our "Legacy Club," who are daughters of widows and thus daughters without fathers, have communicated to Modern Widows Club their aversion to being labeled as "Fatherless Daughters." They do have fathers, and their memory stays alive through them. They prefer to be seen as architects of their own legacy of love, as a way to honor their fathers. Heather Price, daughter of Cindy Price (an MWC member), from Orlando, FL, is with us on the HWHW podcast. Heather recounts her experience and where she was at the time of her father, James Price's, passing while he and her mom were in Costa Rica on vacation.  Essential Highlights: Reflecting on the cherished, remarkable memories between her and her father. Inquiring about what aspects of her father she misses the most. Understanding the type of support she was provided. How did she respond? What worked? What could have been done differently?  Because she attended the MWC 2023 Widow Empowerment Event in St. Louis, MO with her mom, how did this program benefit her and meeting other daughters?  Changes between the mother daughter relationship after loss. Exploring the reasons behind her decision to become a daughter who now gives financially as a recurring donor at Modern Widows Club. Listening to Heather discuss the significance of creating a legacy in honor of her father's memory.  We deeply appreciate Heather's willingness to share her experiences of personal loss as a daughter with such vulnerability. At Modern Widows Club, we are committed to supporting daughters and their mothers, knowing that the next generation of adult women will be better informed and more knowledgeable about widowhood. We are grateful for the opportunity to provide this support.

Heather Price and Sabine Robinson hosts of Activity Coaching Conversations Tell us about your podcast It basically provides strategies, tips and techniques for sales coaches. It's an educational and kind of “train the trainer” type of podcast where we are coaching other coaches. It's a topic that we both love so much. What Podcast Rain has happened because of your podcast shows? The podcast rain has been crazy. I really had no idea that the return would be phenomenal. We tripled the number of clinic attendees this year over last year. Somebody came up to me and said Are you Sabine? And I said why? And she said I recognized your voice. She has been listening to the podcast and that cracked me up. What things have you done over the years to get better at the craft of podcasting? I think philosophically, preparation is really important to us. It's always been important to me. I`ve always had a philosophy that for every hour of work you do typically there`s an hour of preparation that goes into that. We would never show up not having talked about it ahead of time. I think that it`s a special partnership too. How important is the growth of your audience? I would say because it was the right audience and they find value in it, it's spread like wildfire within that audience and we`re getting the results that we want. I think we`re the only podcast of our kind out there so for this particular narrow audience I think it's underserved like there's not a lot of resources for this group so they're loving it. How do you get value from your show? It makes us organize and it pushes us out of our comfort zone too. We got phone calls and some additional work from people.

In this episode, Heather Price and Sabine Robinson talk about the psychology and objectives of each step of the sales cycle. It's important to conduct each step but it is also essential to maximize the effort and the skill with each step. They both dive deep into each of these steps and give us the important facts we need to know in order to have a successful sales cycle. Understanding the psychology behind the steps is an important factor in order to have a successful sales cycle. In the Say That Again Segment, they role-play a conversation where the FR (financial rep) struggles with the close or the closing ratio is half of what it should be.  Episode Highlights: 1:37 The face of the marketplace might have changed, but the human behavior of the marketplace has not.  3:14 If someone continually says no to you, you're just weeding them out.  4:07 It's a reassuring way and an encouraging way to tell reps that even though you didn't get the results you wanted today, you followed the process and met some of those objectives.  5:41 You are teaching people how to do business with you.  8:06 It's a balance of making sure you're building the relationship, talking and getting to know them, but also getting some business done.  11:23 The objective of the close is to get the prospect to make a decision.  Contact information:  https://www.heatherpriceconsulting.com/ (Heather Price Consulting) 

In this episode, Heather Price and Sabine Robinson introduce us to Meghan Hart, the Director of Training and Development at the Miller office in Pittsburgh. They dive deep into the importance of a solid DYM plan. Having enough quality names and a solid approach to reaching out to these individuals is one key to a successful start in the business. In the Say That Again Segment, they role-play a scenario wherein a rep has run out of people to call. Episode Highlights: 02:24 As an activity coach, you want to make sure that you are revisiting this helpful tool and utilizing it as a resource in your coaching. 02:55 Discovering Your Markets has always been and will always be a selection and development tool. 08:12 I recently have found myself going back to the DYM a few months into the business, once they start to run dry and hit their first few roadblocks in the business. 09:55 The market surveys are so critical because they provide the closest approximation of what a field experience is going to be like. 14:16 I think really digging into the market potential and the market descriptor worksheets, giving them that feedback, making sure that they know what the reality is of who they're planning on calling is essential. 15:18 Financial feasibility is huge, a big part of whether or not they're going to make it in this business, I would say, don't wait to complete this until after you've made an offer or don't wait until the very end of the selection process. 22:39 Discovering Your Markets and all of the parts in it that really helped to make sure you are bringing somebody on who is not only a good fit but is also prepared and ready to go. Say That Again: 28:16 Heather and Meghan role-play a conversation with a Rap that has run out of people to call.

In this episode, Heather Price and Sabine Robinson talk about how to keep successful Reps engaged and coach them to an even bigger and better future. It is important to remember that even when an FR is really successful, there are still going to be bumps and pitfalls, and sometimes these are the FRs who can be the most challenging. According to Sabina's experience, they tend to be more independent, more confident, more competitive; they do not like being put in the box, being told what to do, and they usually come with some ego. Heather and Sabina share close to a dozen different things that you can talk to a very successful Rep about to keep them motivated. They also share tips on how to notice that a Rep might get recruited away and what to do when you notice their motivation has decreased. In the Say That Again segment, they role-play a sample of the conversation you can have with a high-achieving Rep.  Episode highlights: 03:43 - Give them plenty of positive feedback. You want to make sure that they know what they are doing right.  07:28 - Impact is one of the things that people really talk about in recruiting and that people want to have; they want a career where they have an impact.  11:11 - Not everybody is necessarily motivated by money or by winning a contest. There are other ways to recognize them for doing a great job.  16:52 - Let them know that you noticed. They may or may not open up, but just let them know.  20:45 - They suddenly start asking questions about their contract. That's almost always an indication that someone else is in their ear talking about how the grass is greener on the other side of the fence.  Say That Again: 23:41 - Heather and Sabina role-play a snippet of a coaching session with a high achieving Rep. Heather plays the advisor who is four months in and is killing it. Sabina is the coach.   Contact information:  https://www.heatherpriceconsulting.com/ (Heather Price Consulting)

In this episode, Heather Price and Sabine Robinson talk about the Success Cycle and the specific steps that occur whenever someone tackles a difficult goal. Step by step, they show us what this cycle looks like and what you, as an activity coach, have to do to help your FRs reach that goal.  In the Say That Again segment, they role-play each of the success cycle steps.   Episode highlights:  01:49 - Disbelief - this is the time where your Reps have committed to the goal, but they do not know they can do it.   03:25 - Hopeful skepticism, the period where they've got some initial results.   05:06 - High performance - they are consistently getting results and moving closer to the goal. Now they can see it. Cheer them and coach them across the finish line.  07:40 - The epic letdown. They have accomplished the goal, crossed the finish line. You have to acknowledge it and coach people through it.  09:00 - Back to step one by encouraging the next big goal.  Say That Again: 12:18 - A mini role-play for each cycle step to show what it sounds like to coach somebody in each step of the cycle.  Contact information:  https://www.heatherpriceconsulting.com/ (Heather Price Consulting) 

There are times when coaching will give you positive energy, and there are times when it can be a major energy drain as well. How you manage the mental and emotional side of being a coach can make all the difference for you and those that you are coaching.   In this episode, Heather Price and Sabine Robinson welcome Kylie McKinney. Kylie completed her Master's degree in Sport and Performance Psychology. Her studies focused mainly on helping athletes. Now she works as a full-time activity coach, coaching new FRs and helping to develop the mindset, skills, and habits that are necessary to have a successful career.  Today they talk about burnout, describe the symptoms, talk about the causes – what initiated it, and give some recommendations on how to prevent it. One of the ways to prevent burnout is to keep green and grow. Take care of yourself - eating, exercising, getting enough sleep. And watch for early signs.  Listen to the podcast and find out about the books they recommend and much more.  Episode highlights: 05:04 – It started with impaired concentration and attention. I started to procrastinate on small, easy tasks I have never had trouble completing before.  11:50 – When you're working on yourself, and you're green and grow, it is easier to help others do that. Look for a study group. Keep a smile file.  14:31 – I got my own “coach” – my therapist. Find a third party you can talk to on a regular basis – if not a therapist, maybe a professional coach, or a coworker.    23:16 – You're coaching people all the time whether you're doing it intentionally or not. People are always looking to you, how you speak about things, what your mindset is, what are the things that you're doing.  Say That Again: 24:10 – Heather and Sabine share some book suggestions that have helped them along the way.  Contact information:  https://www.heatherpriceconsulting.com/ (Heather Price Consulting)

In this episode, Heather Price and Sabine Robinson talk about building trust and how to build a coaching philosophy. Sabine talks about how we can attempt to make trust more concrete and defines some of the specific elements that make for a trusting relationship. She also takes us through some of the best practices for building a coaching philosophy. In the Say that Again segment, they role-play a conversation with an FR (Financial Rep) who isn't following through and keeping their commitments, and they demonstrate how to build an overall coaching philosophy.   Episode highlights: 01:25 – Put yourself in the shoes of a new Financial Rep. They want to know three things about you as their coach: Can I trust you? Do you care about me? Are you committed? 04:25 – Trust can be measured by two things: your character, and your competence. 07:25 – Coaching philosophy is, basically, how you approach coaching holistically. Your philosophy should reflect your values, your personality, and your objective.  09:46 – If you want to build an overall coaching philosophy, start with this three-part base: 1) believe in them, 2) tell them the truth, 3) be patient.  Say That Again: 12:40 – Sabine and Heather take this three-point philosophy and role-play how that might show up in a conversation with an FR. Heather plays an FR who forgets to ask for referrals.  Contact information:  https://www.heatherpriceconsulting.com/ (Heather Price Consulting)

On this very first episode, your hosts Heather Price and Sabine Robinson talk about the foundational piece of activity coaching: deciding who to select as the ideal activity coach, and the important roles that the activity coach plays. It can be difficult to find and train the right person for that role. Heather starts with considerations on who should take on these responsibilities, and Sabine discusses the different hats that they wear. In the Say That Again segment, they answer the question they get fairly often.  Episode highlights: 01:13 – The role of activity coach, the individual that meets one-on-one, two to three times a week, for the purposes of accountability to sales numbers.  05:05 – Words have power and they land, and a lot of times the ones that you least suspect will stick. It's only in retrospect that you realize what an impact you've had on someone's career. 05:45 – The traits associated with Drill sergeant, Cheerleader, Tactician and the Truth teller.   11:40 – One role that you do not play is that of a therapist.    Say That Again: 13:28 – How to respond when a FR says: You do not understand. You've never been a Rep.  Contact information:  https://www.heatherpriceconsulting.com (Heather Price Consulting)

Today we present a new podcast from WKMS in Murray Kentucky called Middle Of Everywhere—Big stories from the small places we call home. What happens when an atheist stands up for free speech when the government favors Christianity? Many people in this country think that patriotism and Christianity go hand in hand, but can a person be a patriot and non-religious? In this episode, Ariel and Austin hear from one feisty and independent man who has devoted his life to crusading for freedom of expression. His journey became world renowned with his lawsuit against the state of Kentucky for denying him the vanity license plate IM GOD.

This episode I do something I have never done in the entire history of the show. I just interview someone. No story. I interview Michael McRay to shed some light and hope on our current political divide. He’s a Nashville-based author of the new book I Am Not Your Enemy: Stories to Transform a Divided World. He’s a story-practitioner using the power of personal stories to heal harm, make meaning, and create connection. He works most often with the global empathy nonprofit organization Narrative 4 and earne his master’s degree in Belfast, Northern Ireland, studying conflict resolution and reconciliation. Our conversation starts with the political divide in America, but ends up in a much more intimate place. We’ll learn about the scale of sectarian danger, a scale to determine the escalation of violence that can occur based on sectarianism, a helpful tool called the PIN model for conflict resolution, and here a couple stories of disparate people connecting in deeply human ways. Scale of Sectarian Danger (from Moving Beyond Sectarianism: Religion, Conflict and Reconciliation in Northern Ireland) Escalation by words and actions We are different, we behave differently We are right. We are right and you are wrong You are a less adequate version of what we are You are not what you say you are We are in fact what you say you are What you are doing is evil You are so wrong that you forfeit ordinary rights You are less than human You are evil You are demonic PIN diagram You can learn more about the story exchanges Michael refers to in this episode at: https://narrative4.com/ You can join “The Neighborhood” along with these wonderful, thoughtful, generous people by becoming a patron at www.patreon.com/neighbors Who’s in “The Neighborhood”: Allison Sebastian, Adrian Cobb, Nathalie Stewart, Ben Lehman, Caroline Martin, Clark Buckner, Cody Spriggs, Dan Burns, Em Vo, Eric Detweiler, Gina, Griffin Bonham, Heather Price, John Kesling, Landon Rives, Marc Kochamba, Patrick Black, Patrick Gillis, Ray Ware, Ryan Arnett, Samuel Adams, Tom and Rachel Kraft, Nikki Black, Hunter and Bonnie Moore, Newton Dominey, Bea Troxel, Craig and Brenda Burns, Laurel Dean, Travis Hall, Clark Hill, Tony Gonzalez, Christopher Mastin and my mom Tonya Lewis (thanks mom!)

The Chrises unearth the nicest/oldest guests possible, The Dino DoGooders. Val Pinnock and Heather Price dinosaur-arm dance into the show to talk about how the prehistoric creatures are making a comeback for the ages. What started as yoga in an inflatable dinosaur costume has now become an international phenomenon; spreading love and joy to nursing homes through outdoor only, socially distanced fun. The Dino DoGooders have been featured on Live with Kelly and Ryan, Some Good News, multiple news outlets, and offshoot Facebook groups as far as Australia and New Zealand. The Chrises ponder the big questions with Val and Heather, like what cars do Dinos drive and whether Dinos have innies or outies [hint: Prius + onnies]. New words are generated for next year's Merriam-Webster edition and futuristic ideas are created. Can we almost certainly expect Dino snow angels, Dinos directing traffic, and maybe even a Dino DoGooders line of costumes?

In the historic city of Magdeburg, Germany, there is a “Johnny Cash”-themed country music festival called Nashville Days – complete with corn dogs and cowboy hats. This is one of the fruits of the sister city relationship between Nashville and Magdeburg. Host Jakob Lewis, a Nashville citizen, goes to Magdeburg to see where the rubber meets the road for Sister Cities' idealistic vision to “promote peace one individual, one community at a time.” If you’ve been to Germany, Magdeburg probably isn’t the first city that comes to mind when you to think of cosmopolitan cities. Yet for the past 15 years, Magdeburg has developed a great relationship with its sister city Nashville through the Sister Cities International program. For The Big Pond, Jakob Lewis traces the origins of the sister cities back to the aftermath of World War II as a means to (re)connect former adversaries. Or, as Joel Dark, the Nashville chair of the Nashville-Magdeburg partnership puts it: “The concept is to build a local-to-local relationship so that international relations [are] not reduced to just relationships between governments and their agendas but can be a relationship really between people.” At a time when the US’ general tone for diplomacy has shifted, what does Sister Cities’ idealistic vision of peace really look like? Does it actually make a difference? Is it just a glorified trip club where well-to-do folks can drink wine in another country? Or is it the key to world peace? Listen to find out more. This story was produced in 2018 as part of the The Big Pond series with the Goethe-Institut, and the Year of German American Friendship 2018/2019 under the motto “Wunderbar Together”. Special thanks to Rosie Forrest for editing this story.

According to a July study from the Pew Research Center, around 3% of Americans have moved because of COVID-19, many of them adults who moved back in with their parents. One of those people is Theo Greenly, a writer and radio producer in Los Angeles. When the pandemic hit, both he and his partner lost their jobs. Unsure about when they would start working again, they decided to move in with family to save money. Specifically, to move in with Theo’s mom in the house that he lived in during high school. Theo documented the process, and he produced this story about it. You can find more of Theo’s work at TheoGreenly.com or follow him on Twitter @TheoGreenly.

For this episode Neighbors is presenting an episode from the show Resettled from VPM: Not a lot of teens are excited about being the “different” kid that stands out in high school. As a Muslim teen from Iraq, Fatimah is learning to navigate that typical experience: striking the balance between fitting in and being your own person. In her senior year at Harrisonburg High, Fatimah decided to try out for the school play, which pushed her boundaries around sexuality and acceptance. Harrisonburg, Virginia is unique as well: there are 51 countries and 57 languages represented in Harrisonburg’s public schools. Not every refugee teen experience is a positive one, but the overwhelming support and pride that the Harrisonburg community takes in its immigrants and refugees means that leaders prioritize their needs in a way that the federal government is not. Resettled is hosted by Ahmed Badr. This story was reported by Maria Parazo Rose. This episode was produced by Gilda Di Carli and edited by Kelly Hardcastle Jones.

Today we’re giving you a break from all things Covid and we’re entering into the intriguing and competitive world of pigeon racing. From the pigeons released at the first Olympic Games to the heroic birds of WWI, homing pigeons have been helping humans deliver important messages for thousands of years. These days, however, homing pigeons are bred and sold not to deliver mail, but to compete in avian races. Although pigeon racing is rapidly growing in places like China and India, here in the U.S., organizations like the Rhode Island Racing Pigeon Club are struggling to gain new members. Despite the challenges, pigeon fanciers in the Northeast are dedicated to keeping the sport alive.

Onto episode five and this week we are shining a spotlight on a leader who has shaped the strategic vision of organisations across the globe on diversity and inclusion. Following a decade of guiding South African organisations on dismantling apartheid in the workplace, Heather Price has continued her mission for creating working environments that are psychologically safe. This is defined as a person’s willingness to bring their whole self to work – to speak up, propose new ideas, challenge traditional ways of doing things and take intelligent risks – all without fear of punishment, humiliation or career limitations. Heather has presented at numerous international conferences on issues of inclusion, bias and psychological safety, paired with establishing consulting group Symmetra in Australia in 2003. Listen in as I chat with Heather about her journey in breaking down barriers, creating a psychologically safe workplace and being aware of the unconscious bias that could be holding us back.

Heather Price talks about her creative writing process. Music education professor, Brittany May chats about what it means to be music literate. And Vicki Ehlen, the director of the Wonderwood Academy, discusses how to encourage a love of reading for children with Down Syndrome.

Manifesting with Heather Price Part Four -  In the past we have talked about knowing what it is you are seeking,and knowing how you will feel when you have what you want; we have discussed how to follow the signs to find your way to your dreams with more awareness and self-empowerment; and today we talk about choosing how to walk in archetypal symbology - to build a powerufl vibrational energy force around you that will attract what you need to create your dreams, and will keep you strong on your journey of change and expansion.  This week, we explore your personal Manifesto - your personal platform - teh guidelines, laws, and rules that will create a clear and safe pathway for exploration, and keep you focused and vibrant on your journey of co-cteation; more able to walk confidently, with ease and grace - in your True Nature. I look forward to meeting you here soon. In Gratitude and Love Always, Heather Price. www.heatherprice.net For more information on Parts 1-3 - visit http://www.shamanicpathandpractice.com/blog-radio.html

Welcome to Wake Up with Heather Price Radio, a show about waking up to your True Nature and Potential, consciously and confidently. Today we are talking about Manifesting - or bring into awareness and physical form that which you are thinking about of dreaming of.  Ih the last two shows we focused on" Being Clear About What You Want - or how you want to feel when you have what you want. Using the Sacred Circle of the major parts of self to guide this process.  Being Present to what you are thinking and creating. This is the Way of Ku Ala, Being Present in time, with yourself as a Great Observor. Becoming an expert at reading the signs and symbols by practicing doing this every day. Building a relationship with the 'spirit of things' and Spirit Guides from unseen worlds so you can be clearly guided on your path of Manifestation.  On this show today we are talking more about symbology, and how we can use archetypes - which are universal symbols of roles that we or others play out - to become a more confident and Powerful Manisfester. In fact - the word Manifester is an archetype - a symbol of one who brings into the world what they are thinking about. We will talk about becoming a Dreamholder - or asking a Dreamholder who we know we can trust to hold our dreams - and what all of that means. I will share a story about this. Tune in soon with me as we take a journey of conscious Manifesting together. Have a great day, Blessings, Heather   

Welcome to Wake Up With Heather Price Radio.  In this series we are talking about Manifesting. Last episode we talked about the earlier stages of Manifesting, which are to be clear about what you want for your Whole Self - spirit - body - heart - and mind, and if you  don't know what you want - to focus on how you want to feel. I talked to you about the importance of having faith in yourself and your dteams - trusting that the Universe is listening to you, and that you deserve your dreams to come true. I also suggested your follow two guidelines in The 8 Ways that will assist you to walk more consciously and confidently in the world. The First Way - Ahuahu, to walk steadfastly and strongly in the world - in the light, in your True Nature; and The Second Way, Ku Ala - reminding you to be present with yourself - your words, visions, action and the signs around you.   In this show we move into The Natural Laws that will support you in the manifestation process, and a little more about how to follow signs, and how you can connect more with yrou inner worlds so as to mainifest more consciously and easily.   More about all of this at: http://www.shamanicpathandpractice.com/blog-radio.html

For the next few episodes on Wake Up with Heather Price radio we will be looking at creative ways to build your confidence in become a confident Co-creator in you life.   Let's begin at the beginning today - What do you want in your life, and how much faith do you have that it will manifest?

Welcome to Wake Up with Heather Price Radio with your host Heather Price. Today I talk about how we can find the answers we are looking for in nature, if only we take the time to be there in the first place. There are many natural laws that we can learn about when we take the time to observe wheat happens in nature. Such laws can be used as metaphors for life. The natural laws you will most likely be most family with are the Law of Cause and Affect (or Karma), and the Law of Attraction. However, there are other laws, such as the Law of Oneness, the Law of Bounty & Gratitude, the Law of Polarity, the Law of Reciprocity (Give Back) , teh Law of Ciculation and Cycles, and the Law of Rebirth (regrowth) that can guide us during times of challenge. While clearing out my back garden today, cutting back old, dead branches, i became aware of  how exposed my view into my neighbour/s back yard suddenly became. For a moment i regretted clearing it all away, and then my mind jumped to the future and I could imagine all the new growth that would bring beautiful colours to my back yard. It would be worth the wait and the lack of privacy as my shrubs went about theri natural cycle of regrowth and rebirth.  As I cut down each branch, I could feel something lighten in side of me, as my intention alone to connect to the process seemed to free me. There is something liberating about clearing space and letting in the light. Listen in here to my reflection on how connecting with nature can help you to be clearer about your life and give clues as to the next step. I will also talk about Shamanic Walks and how these have helped so many people find their way during stressful times.  Have a great day Blessings Heather www.heatherprice.net

Symbology Part 2  Living in Joy, in Flow and Synchronicity In my last show I talked to you about Symbology and it is such a broad and interesting subject I decided to continue the theme for today's show. Listen in here – or go to my blog to read about it. http://www.shamanicpathandpractice.com/blog-chat.html I will begin here so you have some idea what I am talking about. On the weekend I took my mother on one of our regular picnics by the ocean where she lives, and we sat where the ocean meets the river between two popular beaches. There were dozens of men in a vast expanse of rapidly flowing turquoise coloured waves, with huge, colourful kites sailing above them..... All around us, lining the rocks on the shore edge, were women with children pointing and laughing with joy at the men they seemed to know and love. It was a joyful and seriously buzzy time! (more athttp://www.shamanicpathandpractice.com/blog-chat.html) In reflection to the outing I had that day with my mother, what we witnessed and experienced that sunny, happy day was the joy of being in joy and complete flow and synchronicity with each other and all that is around us; looking at it this way, we can really begin to understand the power that comes with living in such a way. Not only does moving with the flow of life with complete awareness and instinctual energy assist us to move and readjust spontaneously, we begin to realize, with the Cloud People's help, there is so much more happening around us if we only take the time to look around  More at http://www.shamanicpathandpractice.com/blog-chat.html  

Welcome to Wake Up With Heather Price Radio, part of The Difference Radio Network Symbology in Personal And Professional Spaces Similar to the word ‘symbolism' which denotes taking action by using symbols to portray a message, ‘symbology' means the study of the symbols that covertly and overtly hold meaning. Symbols can be used as signposts to direct you through life, both as signpost to follow and signposts to actually post yourself to let the Universe know, and yourself of course, that this is the direction you are heading in. The more you practice reading into and using symbols as signposts or signs, the easier it become to become a Brilliant Observer in life, in relationships, in academic arenas, and in your vocation or business. This workshop offers a number of ways to build your skills as a Brilliant Observer through symbology, or the study of symbols, in a number or creative forms. Perhaps the most prolific place to search for signposts to guide your thinking, planning, and actions is in nature. At this workshop you will have an opportunity to experience a Shamanic Walk, where you will learn how to listen to and observe natural signs to show you the way.   Heather Price has been running workshops in one form or another for more than twenty years.

Fear is a powerful energy that may creep in gradually and unknowingly, or overtake you in seconds. Fear is an instinctive energy that can keep us safe and secure if we pay heed to it at appropriate times. Fear can come from an imprinted memory that keeps us imprisoned and limited,  afraid of taking risks. There are many ways of looking at and living with fear, and when we understand it and learn to manage it allows us to live aware and awake life. There are many ways to get to know what your personal relationship with fear is all about.

One night, while on an overnight quest of healing in the Australian bush, a snake came to deliver a powerful message to me.

An evil army is approaching, and a lead character is lamenting the power and flexibility of evil in the world...the monologue draws to a pivotal moment...the actor's voice swells...and..."All we have is Steel!...Wizardry! All we have is defense!"This line, from a character played by the actor Steve Guynn in an upcoming Jerry Williams fantasy film, is just one of many, many examples of the great lines that one encounters in a Jerry Williams film!Jerry Williams is an indie filmmaker extraordinaire. He is a guy who usually has multiple films in various stages of production, and has crafted a style that can only be described as his very own, unique genre. He definitely pushes the envelope with his work, and elicits alot of reactions, ranging from those that love his signature style (count me in this group), to others less inclined, such as a film reviewer that actually called for someone, somewhere to punch Jerry for making the film that the guy was reviewing (true story!).One thing that is indisputable is that you will be hard-pressed to find someone who is more passionate about independent film. You will also be sorely challenged to find someone who is more gracious in the goodwill and support that Jerry regularly extends to other filmmakers of all genres and styles.From cardboard sets and creative uses of his cat (note to Humane Society: the cat has never been harmed and is, in fact, quite spoiled!), to voluptuous actresses leaving little to the imagination, to cult independent film stars such as Debbie Rochon, Conrad Brooks, and Troma's Loyd Kaufman, Jerry's works always have the unexpected and the original. What most people don't realize is that underneath all of the onscreen insanity, Jerry actually injects a serious literary undercurrent, an example of which he discusses in this interview concerning his feature "Misadventures in Space".Jerry is a playright, poet, and prose writer as well, and we wanted to bring a little of that aspect out in this interview, and encourage the reader to look into his excellent poetry collection that is in print, called Mirrors and Portraits.It is my intention that this interview gives the reader a little insight into the craziness, humor, work ethic, committment, talent, dedication, and other characteristics that Jerry possesses. (The genius right alongside the offbeat and insane, so to speak!) You will also hopefully get a sense of his collaborative spirit, as well as get to meet a few of his regular cohorts such as Pat Bowling and Eric Butts.The indie filmmaking world is not an easy one, and Jerry puts his heart and soul into his work. With all the things stacked against the no-budget indie filmmaker, Jerry's progress, success, and prolific filmmaking nature gives inspiration to all of us; the "Steel, Wizardry, and Defense!", if you will, to keep fighting the good fight for independent film.So here it goes! Buckle up, hold on to your seat! Now...Ladies and Gentlemen...the long-awaited IMM interview with Goatboy Films' legendary and controversial director, Jerry Williams!!!-Stephen Zimmer, for Indie Movie Masters, June 25, 2009SZ: We know you are a brilliant, genius filmmaker, but give us a little idea as to your background, education, that kind of thing.JW: I've always been a writer, first and foremost, and I got a masters degree in creative writing from MSU....two things from that time have always influenced my cinema work are my love of hidden messages in writing and my love of the grotesque...Lovecraft, Tolkien, and my personal favorite Clive Barker. In literary criticism, one of the things of Hemingway that struck me was he was very direct in his writing, but if you peered deeper in...there was hidden meanings in such simple direct sentence structures. I like the idea of my films, no matter how simple or silly it appears should have some deeper levels. I had read once that Gene Roddenberry made star trek a vehicle where he could talk about the human condition under the guise of a 'sci fi' show....I wanted to take that idea and apply it to indie or cult cinema, and place hidden messages or motifs in crazy surreal films. Misadventures in Space on one level is a silly send up of the sci fi genre in general and star trek in particular, but it is also a satire of the Iraqi war...when I wrote it...I was constantly watching the cable news shows, and the character Brother Bishop Tucker(Billy W. Blackwell) was named after conservative TV host Tucker Carlson. That biting satire buried in sci fi nonsense interested me...a form of commentary that hopefully some people got when they saw the film.SZ: What got you into movies so passionately, and what type of movies or what movies are your favorites?JW: I got into cinema as an extension of what I was trying to do with my poetry and coffeehouse performances. I have tons of favorite filmmakers...passion about the film is what I respond to....regardless of the genre. I took an art motif of homegrown 'slacker Dada' to my films. I like surreal films, and I love the idea of marrying cartoons, surreal, and junkfood low brow culture into sci fi or horror films. I love older cinema, and since I never had a color TV until I was into my teens, the idea of a black and white film never seemed weird to me... I watched all of the crazy shows from the 70's in black and white. Older movies seemed, to me at least, filled with beautiful women and films that needed plot and characters in them. When I see the CG inspired madness and MTV inspired 'slick shots' in films...I wonder how dated they will look in twenty years. I would rather watch an Ed Wood, Russ Meyer, or Ray Dennis Steckler film anyday over glossed over candy that passes for films these days.....the female lead from 'creature of the Black Lagoon' seems much more beautiful to me than some of these tacky celebrities out of hollywood of late.....Bela Lugosi was Dracula, and Flash Gordan fought Emperor Ming's evil empire give me more enjoyment than most current films.SZ: Do you have some favorite directors? And why are they your favorites?JW: Ed Wood, Clive Barker, Lloyd Kaufman, Ray Dennis Steckler, Kevin Smith and Russ Meyers. Each director had a unique vision of what they were shooting for, and some (Ed Wood, Ray Dennis Steckler) did great with limited or no budgets. I also love my friend Conrad Brooks and his films....definitely worth a look for fans of surreal horror and 'offbeat' films. I'd also be remiss if I didn't mention local filmmakers George Bonilla, Jacob Ennis, Cherokee Hall, Stephen Zimmer, Matt Perry, Daniel Roberts, Mark Poole, Jason Crowe and my favorite Tim Ritter. I did several films with George Bonilla as an AD, and all of his films are surreal horror and worth a look for psychotronic film fans.....I did a nod to him and named several characters after him in Ectovision!Jacob Ennis produced my film Purvos, and I learned a lot...a lot from him on making films...Stash is a 70's slasher horror film much better than anything that Hollywood puts out there...I love Stephen Zimmer's films...his Shadows and Light movie is a fantasy film that really had a unique vision, and I really liked Matt Perry's film murderer. Tim Ritter is still a favorite director of mine, and definitely influenced Purvos.SZ: Do you have a day job? Or do you just sit back and collect royalty checks from the Goatboy films Empire?JW: I'm a working stiff, and fund my films myself which gives me freedom and headaches at the same time. Perhaps one day goatboyfilms will help fuel that run for the whitehouse or Senate. Vote Williams!SZ: How in the world did you come up with the name Goatboy films? What is the story behind the name of your studio?JW:From my friend Chadwell, we were kicking around ideas for a film company name in early 2001. It was Chadwell's nickname in college by a tripped out hippy chick. The name fit what I shooting for, and we kept it. It's not related to that saturday night live skit.SZ: Tell us about Pat Bowling and others in the Goatboy Films empire, as I know you work regularly with a few particular renegades like Pat.JW: I've known Pat from college, and our differences work out for the best. I'm a 'head in the clouds dreamer' sometimes, and Pat is a 'nuts and bolts' guy and that combination helps get projects done. Trust me, Pat is worth his weight in gold when it comes to the UFO film. Pat is also a damn good actor as well, I think he likes production much more... his acting swan song will be in Queen of the Cursed World. Pat is briefly in the medieval thing I'm cooking up...Insomnia and Dragon Witch. He did a fantastic job editing 'The Cursed Doll' which is now with Echelon StudiosSZ:How in the world would you describe a “Jerry William’s Film”? It seems to me you defy classification, but I had to ask, if only to know how best to describe your stuff myself. You perplex me!JW: Live action cartoon energy slacker dada satire comedy horror show....I guess my films move to their own heartbeats....I like the idea of crossing genres...high brow motives with junk food pop culture. I have some notes about doing my version of Alice in Wonderland called at this point 'Alice Caligari'...I like the idea of bringing in older actors since our culture is so youth obsessed, and Lewis Carroll's book lends itself easily to symbolic and freudian intrepretations...I read several biographies and literary criticisms of his creative work, and agree it was his only outlet in a repressed and solitary existence. It's still up in the air at this point.SZ: You have incredible women in your films. How do you convince them to be involved in no-budget projects without shelling out big bucks?JW: Well, my films usually have strong female character roles...most films you have a finite amount of what and who you can play. Slasher films usually have two roles in them...hero or victim, and sci fi films are even more restrictive. My films may be out in left field, but the female characters have power and command respect. I like that the actresses bring something to the table. Leslie Rogers was a fanastic Fiona in Soul Robbers, and Heather Price does a fantastic turn in Ectovision. Stephani Heise and Natasha Roberts who played the lovers in Purvos did great.I wanted Purvos to be a little different. Actors will at least listen to you, if your film isn't the 'slasher-on-the loose' fare, and I don't cut off roles at 24 years old....I find the youth obsessed culture out of tinseltown is shallow to my taste, but of course that's just my opnion.SZ: What is your largest budget to date? What is a typical budget on a Goatboy project? (In US Dollars, Yen, or Euros, you can pick)JW: Zeppo definitely, but I'm not sure about the final budget...that's more with Eric Butts and Moodswing Entertainment. I work with various budgets, but I joke with Pat that some of my films cost a six pack of beer and a song! I will say that at the end of the day, folks won't care about your budget if you engage them and entertain them. I've seen several modest budgeted films and felt great whereas I've seen CGI laden films that cost more than the gross national budget of small Africian countries and though they were slick emotionally dead pieces of eye fluff.SZ: You have a knack for casting, such as using the regal William Schaeffer Tolliver, the insane Steve Guynn, the Bruce Campbell-esque Daniel Roberts, the larger than life Cherokee Hall, etc. How do you approach casting such colorful characters? Do you bribe them?JW: I bribe them with my personality! No seriously, I usually connect with actors and crews working on other films for friends....I met several talented actors on film sets by local filmmakers such as Cherokee Hall, George Bonilla, Daniel Roberts, Jacob Ennis, Eric Butts, and Cineline's Matt Perry ....you find out more about a person working with them in long period of time than someone who wows you in an audition, and are a complete pain in the ass afterward. People who want to work on my films are a pretty passionate group, and I've been very lucky to get actors like Steve Guynn, Jason Crowe, Nathan Day, Billy Blackwell, Roni Jonah, Stepahni Heise, Natasha Roberts, Claude Miles, Kat Carney and others in the regional area. I also got to mention that Chad Hundley is a fanastic comedic actor, and his timing especially with Cherokee Hall reminds me of the old Bowery Boys. If I missed anyone, trust me there are some great actors out there working.SZ: What is it like working with The Bob Cooke?JW: He was awesome in Misadventures, as was Belinda. Bob's passionate about any and all things cinema....there was one line from misadventures that makes me smile...Bob's character says 'Our heroes will come like rain to a parched desert!' Bob did the line, but swore he'd beat me if I sent him another script like that again! People should check out his site www.Kymovie.net, Bob Cooke is like Coca Cola...he's the real thing baby! Belinda is a damn good producer on films like Hellephone, and Monstrosity among others and a passionate actress(she was fantastic in STASH as the sleazy mother).SZ: Give me an idea of your filmography (Yes, I understand that we might need a couple pages worth of space for this one.)JW:Completed films:Mint condition -writer/director (a Clerks type comedy) 18 minutes 2003Manic / Happy Anniversary - producer for Jacob Ennis's shortsPurvos - 72 minutes, writer/director 2004Zeppo - writer/director, feature film 90 minutes (2007)Misadventures in space, feature film 74 minutes (2007) and 53 minutes (2009)Soul Robbers from Outerspace, feature 61 minutes.Major Power and the flying saucer from Mars (and other tales of the hero) compliation 53 minutes (2009)Pirate Candy Sampler, comedy film 49 minutesDinner for two, short 5 minutesPumpkin Joe, short 5 minutesTwin sisters of Desire and Death! (The 'lost' episode of Misadventures in Space) 10 minuteAlien Conspiracy Murders, short 34 minutesIn production:Ecto-vision!, Insomnia and the Dragon Witch, Saucer sex from beyond, and the UFO documentary film I'm working with Pat Bowling. I'm also starting an edit of'Queen of the Cursed World', and have several projects in the planning stages.As Assistant director on ZP movies:Edison Death Machine, Monstrosity, and Hellephone.SZ: Speaking of Zeppo, which is arguably your “biggest budget” project to date—what’s going on with it at the moment? Will it ever be released? Rabid fans want to know!!!! (Or will the boxed set version be out before the regular version?)JW: I'm dating myself with this admission, but when I was a kid in the late 70's there was live action TV shows like Shazam!, Isis, and Jason of Star Command. Zeppo was a homage of sorts to that crazy saturday morning craziness crossed with a surreal midnight movie like Liquid Sky and Looney Tunes cartoons. Zeppo in a nut shell is a black and white cartoony sci fi adventure with non pc humor, naked zombies, cruel sexy aliens, and cardboard tombstones! Eric brought a lot his humor, and production skills for the film (not only did he edit and produce the film, but supervised the music and special efx shots for the film). We're currently shopping the film out to distributors, so hopefully folks will get to see it soon. Debbie Rochon was fanasttic in it, and Lloyd Kaufman still cracks me up...editing Lloyd was the hardest thing since he brings so much to the table...I'd love for Lloyd to do more serious dramatic roles...the local actors Stacey Gillespie, Elysse, Amanda Kaye, Casey Miracle, etc. did a fanastic job under some crazy shoots, and I have to say we had great production help from Casey Miracle, William Schaeffer Tolliver, and makeup was done by Julia Caudill.If Eric and I were the heads of Zeppo, Eric's mom, Patsy Butts, who helped produced the film and was its biggest booster was the heart of it. Sadly she passed away last year, but her legacy lives on in the film.(Movie Trailer for Zeppo)SZ: Will there be a sequel to Zeppo? And will the sequel be released before the original?JW: Never say never, but for me it would depend on how the first film fares out with the folks out there.SZ: How do you pull off working on multiple film projects at the same time? Are you simply crazy? Or is there a method to this obvious madness?JW: Part craziness, and part necessity. I shoot fast on my solo films, but it is also cause a lot of the actors are only available for a finite amount of time, so I have to move fast. The shooting multiple films at the same time is a nod to Roger Corman's methods. He would shoot a scene for a movie for AIP, then he would move the props about and change costumes to shoot a scenefor his own film which he would sell to AIP or to other film distributors. Pure genius, but maddening at the same time.SZ: Loyd Kaufman, Conrad Brooks , Debbie Rochon…what is it like working with cult figures that you have been a fan of yourself? How in the world do you keep Loyd contained and under control on the set?JW: I worked with Conrad on my horror film Purvos, and he and I are good friends. I love classic cinema, and movie serials of Conrad's youth so we talk about his films, and his experiences. A nice man, but pretty set in his convinctions which I understand and emulate myself. I always look forward to working with Conrad on any film...a good actor, he brings a lot to the table. He's an older actor and still working...check out his Jan-Gel films. Expect more film madness from Conrad in the future. I loved working with Debbie Rochon. A beautiful and talented lady, she was fantastic to work with on Zeppo...committed to the script, and worked her butt off on it...an artistic lady with a huge heart, and I can see why guys (and gals) fall for her like a ton of bricks. Whenever I think of Debbie, I imagine she is taking her ten minutes free from Fangoria radio and production work to paint on canvas...an earth elemental, timeless and beautiful like the moonlight in June.Lloyd is great actor, and very committed to cinema on all levels. I was very nervous meeting him. His toxic Avenger films are a part of my youth, so it was great and surreal to work with him. Like Debbie, a committed actor who busted his butt on the film. He really is a genius of indie cinema, and his books on making films should be taught in schools. Even if you don't 'get' the Troma films, it does my heart good that they can be out there. I think Lloyd can say more in a 90 minute film about the current state of affairs and the universal prejudices we have in say Poultrygeist than hours upon hours of PBS programming. I think Troma and Lloyd are the best parts of Americana like the hot dog and baseball, which is why I think people respond it worldwide. If you're into films, do yourself a favor and pick up his books and see that there is a method to the madness. I kept Lloyd contained by a harem of nubile women who fed him grapes and fanned him in between scenes....just kidding...he was a pleasure to work with, although I'm sure he wouldn't have protested that grape feeding scenario.SZ: I happen to own a poetry book by you, called Mirrors and Portraits, which not many people may know about. At the risk of incurring your wrath, I would like to shed a little light on this side of you. Talk about the poetry book and any other literary projects you might have coming out?JW: In college, I hung out with the literary crowd and loved writing poetry. I also got over my shyness by reading poetry at coffehouses, although I preferred doing it at places you wouldn't think about poetry.In Morehead, it was the local bar called Spanky's....you'd get these high and drunk professors, along with bikers and rednecks playing music and reading their poetry. A rough hole in the wall, but it was fun and definitely a place of my youth. In Lexington, it was High on Rose....unfortunately these places don't exist anymore...I guess I'm more Charles Bukowski 'live life fully dammit' than hanging out at staid coffeshops talking about writing. I had written poetry from that time period, and finally got a book of verse together called Mirrors and Portraits. In a sense it a portrait of me as an angry young guy who loved everything to the fullest. It's like the first time you finally 'hear' Mozart and it moves in your heart...same thing with literature and poetry with me. Passion fuels literature, and hopefully if people see the book, and see me...flaws and all. I'm working on a new book of poetry. I love writing verse, and never want that to leave my heart or my life. I try to put poetry and some poetic ideas in my scripts as well.SZ: On that note, rumor has it that you might be developing something theater related? Is there any truth to this rumor?JW: I wrote the Halloween murder myster play, Green Ghost of the Tracks, for Kathy Hobb's theater company, Fantastical theatricals, and it was great to see a play of mine on stage. Theater is the ultimate high wire act. I have a couple of plays written together, that may or may not hit the stage. A lot of folks don't realize that I was actually more interested in forming a theater company to stage my work at the beginning, but went with films instead. I would still love to make a theater company, so maybe one day down the road when the stars are in place, it may happen. I would also like folks to check out Kathy and her wonderful Fantastical Theatricals, a wonderful experience for me as a writer.SZ: Where can people find and buy some Jerry Williams movies?JW: Purvos is available at Brain Damage films. Major Power and the Flying Saucer from Mars DVD is available at indieflix. Misadventures in space the original version is on google video and hungry flix. That film has a tight new edit, and should be in a DVD package soon with mint condition. I have a comedy film, Pirate Candy Sampler, which is a comedy in the style of 'Amazon Women on the moon' on google video as well. The Cursed doll is now with Echelon Studios, so it should be out soon. You can also see Purvos on netflix and get it off Amazaon.com. My book of poetry is also available on Amazon and other book seller sites.Links to buy Purvos, Major Power, and Mirrors and Portraits.Purvoshttp://www.amazon.com/Purvos-Conrad-Brooks/dp/B0012OTVCGPurvos on netflixhttp://www.netflix.com/Movie/Purvos/70093406?&mqso=70002140&trkid=129129Major Powerhttp://www.indieflix.com/Films/MajorPowerandtheFlyingSaucerfromMarsMirrors and Portraitshttp://www.amazon.com/Mirrors-Portraits-Jerry-Williams/dp/1413765807/ref=cm_cr-mr-titleMisadventures in space (original cut on google video)http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=895029670631039342&ei=qiE_SpqxA4WkqwLPruTKAQ&q=misadventures+in+spacePirate Candy Samplerhttp://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7192095349227927623&ei=5CU_SoasK5HwrgK-lIHLAQ&q=pirate+candy+samplerSZ: Will your cat be appearing in future projects, and will there be any parts available for other people’s cats, such as mine? Your cat’s performance was awesome as the Wizard Merlin in Major Power, and in the heavy-duty SFX sequence in the engine room in Misadventures in Space!JW: I actually jotted down an idea for 'Major Power and the Ghost train!', so if Major Power shows up...I think the Wizard would confer with the great wizards of yore...you always got to look out for ...evil ectoplasm!
