Episode 177 -  Health Heroes! I love it so much when I run into people that literally infuse me with energy and  turn up my light just by the way they live. Kevin Mcshan is definitely one of those people. At age 9 he was told he would never walk without assistance and had to undergo an operation due to him being born with spastic cerebral palsy which is where your muscles basically get super tight and restrict movement. After being inspired by and early mentor who told him “The only limitations you will have in this life are the ones you put on yourself”, Kevin got busy making the most out of his life. He is very much into health and exercise and has done so well that now he is a paid professional speaker and also hosts his own podcast called “Lets Have This Conversation”. If any of you are feeling a little depressed in your own life that should fade quickly when you hear how much Kevin has overcome and put your circumstances into perspective.

This episode is with Kevin McShan, born with spastic quadriplegia cerebral palsy, which affects his muscle dexterity, how he walks, his speech, and more. It may take you a minute to fall understand Kevin, but when you do, you realize he's a brilliant guy, who has a big heart. He's a big advocate for people with disabilities, and one of things that he's done and sharing stories on his podcast, and helping through his network to create employment for those of us with disabilities. He is a person that just says no, and doesn't allow others opinions to affect how he lives his life, for instance when doctors told him what he will probably be capable of in the future, the limitations will become stricter, and he knew that he could find another way around it, or if not he would fight through it. He really goes in depth about his passion to get those with disabilities employed, and how 80% of the things we need, things that we don't even need to be made, they're just little accommodations to tweak how we do our job.   https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8O46hFoibuN-doUrAfOvn https://www.facebook.com/kevin.mcshan1 https://www.kevinmcshan.com/

Millennials are setting another trend. They've earned a reputation for reshaping industries and institutions — shaking up the workplace, transforming dating culture, and rethinking parenthood. They've also had a dramatic impact on American religious life. Four in ten millennials now say they are religiously unaffiliated, according to the Pew Research Center. In fact, millennials (those between the ages of 23 and 38) are now almost as likely to say they have no religion as they are to identify as Christian. John Follis created an award-winning documentary "Leaving God" (2017) which blends an engaging personal story with the major cultural shift currently happening in America -- the shift away from religion and God. Winner of a Hollywood International Documentary Film award, the film also documents how, before leaving God, John "sold God" via the highly successful and press-worthy ad campaign his New York ad agency created for New York's Marble Collegiate Church. He joined me this week to tell me more.
