In this enlightening episode of the Nacho Kids Podcast, we explore the fascinating world of stepfamilies in American history with our special guest, Lisa Wilson, the esteemed author of "A History of Stepfamilies in Early America." Lisa shares her journey of uncovering the untold stories and patterns of stepfamilies, reflecting on her personal experiences as a member of such a family. Delving into historical dynamics, Lisa discusses how the perception and roles within stepfamilies have evolved over centuries, from the challenges of integrating into what was once an emotionally-focused family model to combating age-old prejudices against stepmothers. Lori and David, our hosts, invite listeners to a thoughtful conversation about the societal shifts that have affected family structures, highlighting the continuity of certain challenges stepfamilies face today, reminiscent of those from the 18th century. They touch on topics like the legal rights of step-parents, the economic considerations of remarriage, and even the portrayal of stepparents in popular culture. Join us as we navigate this intriguing historical landscape, uncovering insights that resonate with modern stepfamilies and fostering a greater understanding of how these blended households have always been a fundamental part of the American family fabric. In this episode, we discuss: Historical context of stepfamilies Stepparents' challenges and shifts in family dynamics Societal perceptions and misconceptions Modern Community and family structures Nacho Kids Academy Success Stories: “I thought I had tried everything. Books, blogs, even therapy, but nothing helped me feel less like an outsider in my own home. Then I found Nacho Kids Academy. Within weeks, the stress in our home dropped dramatically. I finally understood that I didn't have to fix everything or be the 'bonus mom of the year.' I learned how to support my partner without losing myself. The daily tension? Gone. The constant guilt? Lifted. The relationship with my stepkids isn't perfect, but for the first time, it's not painful. Nacho Kids gave me my peace and my power back.”- Sarah M., Stepmom of 3 and Proud Nacho'er

Stigma. Its everywhere. Grief - Mental Illness - Race - Some stigmas carry more weight than others, if that's even possible. It doesn't make sense in my brain…. but it is absolutely true in this world. Suicide. Addiction. People run from these conversations while others are living through these real life traumas. Today's guest on The Be Ruthless Show doesn't just fall into one category of these “double stigma…” categories. She's the “winner winner” of both world's: parenting a teenager with #addiction that ultimately resulted in his death by #suicide. Lisa Wilson is a wife and mother of two boys with eighteen years of experience in education. She has dedicated her life to fostering growth and resilience in others. Her journey as a survivor of suicide loss has profoundly influenced her mission to advocate for families facing barriers and trauma, offering them the support and empathy they need to heal. As part of her grief journey, she became a certified personal trainer and nutrition coach, initially to help herself and then to help others. She is passionate about inspiring others to embrace positivity and self-care, believing that wellness and nutrition are foundational to a fulfilling life. Her goal is to educate, encourage, and empower individuals to lead healthier, happier lives through holistic wellness practices. When she isn't exercising or enjoying the outdoors with her husband, Shawn, and dog, Marlo, she's reading a new book or listening to music while writing in her journal. Finding balance in life and making space for the important work of healing is a huge part of who she is. This episode is for anyone who's struggled with loss or knows the complexities of suicide, addiction, and mental illness.

Many residents of the Highlands have embraced the "death-positive" movement, which hopes to shape the endings of our stories. When a doctor told Lisette Cheresson's family that their mother was no longer eligible for a liver transplant, they decided to take her home immediately. "The doctor was flabbergasted," says Cheresson, a Beacon resident whose mother died in 2018 in North Carolina. "He said: 'Are you sure? We can keep her alive.' " "We had to honor what we promised her," she recalls. "Mom didn't want to die in a hospital." They hired a private ambulance to take her home that evening. Family members were at her bedside when she died the next morning. "It was one of the most profoundly beautiful moments of my life," says Cheresson. "It is transcendent when people are given an opportunity to experience these sacred intimate moments in ways that are meaningful to them." As part of a growing movement that has been described as "death positive," people in the Highlands and around the country are looking for ways to embrace life's final moments and turn death into something beautiful and meaningful. The movement is driven by death doulas, podcasters, hospices, writers, singers, funeral directors and "death café" facilitators. In part motivated by her experience with her mother, Cheresson joined an army of doulas, also known as death midwives, who help families talk openly about dying and individuals achieve a "good death." Hudson Valley Hospice, which serves Dutchess and Ulster counties, has trained about 80 end-of-life doulas since 2017, said Lisa Wilson, a spokesperson. Wilson said the doulas help plan and manage the final days of patients' lives to ensure they have a good death, including the friends, music and even smells they want present in their final moments. "They talk with them about how they want the end to go," she says. Doulas also help with legacy projects such as farewell videos and letters. She says a doula helped a Fishkill woman in her 90s assemble a board of photographs to be displayed at her wake. Words and music Talking about death is the idea behind the death café that Ryan Biracree began last summer at the Desmond-Fish Public Library in Garrison, where he works as the digital services librarian. "Discuss death, dying and the dead - with tea and cake," read his promotion for a session held Feb. 25. (The next one is March 17.) Since 2011, there have been more than 17,600 such gatherings worldwide, according to deathcafe.com, a site created by Jon Underwood in London after he was inspired by "café mortals" held at bistros in Geneva by a Swiss sociologist, Bernard Crettaz. When Underwood died suddenly in 2017 at age 44, his mother and sister took over. (Underwood also founded a consumer site for people to review funeral directors.) The first death café in the U.S. took place in Columbus, Ohio, in 2012. "Death cafés allow people space to talk about things without getting weird looks from family and friends," says Biracree. The sessions typically draw 20 to 30 people. Rather than talking, singing to the dying is the idea behind the Threshold Choir, co-founded 10 years ago by Cat Guthrie, a Garrison singer-songwriter. The choir visits the bedsides of the sick and dying to perform a repertoire that might include "We Are All Walking Each Other Home," "Rest Easy" and "I Am Giving You Light." The first Threshold Choir sang in California in 2000; today there are more than 200 worldwide. Guthrie's choir sings twice a month at bedsides around the Hudson Valley, including at the Rosary Hill Home for terminal cancer patients in Hawthorne. "Music puts you in a different place," says Guthrie, who, along with other family members, "sang out" to her parents when each died years ago. "We have stepped away from being present for people when they are sick and dying," she says.

Business Health Checks are a great foot-in-the-door business advisory offering for professional service firms wanting to add client value and bridge the gap between 'the numbers' and more intensive advisory services such as strategic planning workshops & implementation.     But where do you start? Sharing her playbook, Lisa Wilson talks about how professional service firm Morrows design, price, deliver, promote and resource business health checks and why using Mindshop diagnostics, the Now-Where-How methodology and one page plans are integral to their success. Touching on how to generate internal referrals, Lisa also talks about capacity issues, reveals the power of 'BAMFAM' and shares ideas on how to use business health checks as a springboard into further advisory work.      Time Codes  00:00:51 Lisa's background and business advisory journey  00:02:40 Morrow's business advisory service range  00:03:41 Maturity of client base wanting business advisory services  00:04:47 Who's delivering business advisory services at Morrows?  00:05:38 Types of Business Health Checks  00:06:15 Pricing Business Health Checks   00:08:13 Weaving in financial insights  00:09:27 Internal referrals & marketing  00:12:22 Getting further advisory work  00:15:38 Managing capacity  00:16:33 Emerging demand for advisory services  00:18:47 Final tips & thoughts 

Hour 1 Drew Lock and the Seattle Seahawks beat the Eagles last night 20-17, handing the Eagles their third straight loss. This gives an opportunity to the Detroit Lions to get the 2-seed in the NFC. We also talked about the Knicks beating the Lakers. We talked about Evan Fournier just sitting on the bench all the time. There are rumors that Donovan Mitchell could be available again. Boomer said the Knicks need a Center. Rob Saleh was asked about Aaron Rodgers again and Gio wonders why Saleh can't just shut down all of the talk about him returning. Boomer thinks there's some sort of financial deal between Rodgers and the doctor and place that performed the surgery. Gio thinks maybe Rodgers tells McAfee today, ‘see you on Christmas eve'. ‘The day before Jesus was born, Football Jesus will take the field'- that's what Gio is hoping he says today. Peter Schwartz is in for Jerry and is here for his first update, but first, Peter tells us about some trouble he got into at Costco. Rob Saleh addressed the various reports about Zach's injury. Tommy DeVito will start again as Brian Daboll said, ‘he's earned it'. Peter has the call of the Seahawks TD that put them ahead with :28 seconds left to beat the Eagles. After the game, Drew Lock was emotional. Shannon Sharpe talked about a woman passing gas while they were being intimate. In the final segment of the hour, Zach Wilson's Mom, Lisa, took to Instagram to say Zach didn't want to come out of the game but had blurry vision.  Hour 2 Rashard Mendenhall is in the news. He is the former Steelers player that used to stand naked in the locker room next to Gio as he attempted to interview players. He's ‘sick of average white guys commenting about football'. He also wants to replace the Pro Bowl with an all-black vs all-white game. When we killed Osama Bin Laden, he tweeted about only hearing one side of the story with him. Boomer thinks if the Jets keep playing like they've been playing, somebody's getting fired. Joe Benigno wants Rex Ryan and Mike Tannenbaum back. Peter returns for an update but first we talked about Schwartzy The Snowman from Friday night's live show. Rob Saleh talked about the process on whether Aaron Rodgers will be activated. Joe Benigno was on with Evan and Tiki and wants Mike Tomlin or Rex Ryan as the next Jets Head Coach. We also talked about fast food with Peter. He gets Burger King coupons in the Sunday paper. He also told us when he had his bachelor party at the Staten Island Yankees, they offered to get strippers for the suite. In the final segment of the hour, a guy claims that Little Boomer tried to fight him a few years ago when he was being a Donald Trump impersonator.  Hour 3 Tommy DeVito is embroiled in a feud with a pizza place in NJ. He was scheduled to sign autographs there for a fee of $10K, but the agent changed it to $20K. Gio thinks the pizza place should have kept this quiet. There was no signed contract, but there were text messages back and forth about the price for the appearance. This week DeVito is going up against the Eagles and they put up points, something the Giants don't do a lot of. Boomer wants him to stop doing appearances and focus on playing these next few weeks. Gio can't believe Phil Simms went back to the lady glasses this past Sunday. Gio wants us to rank the smartest in order: Gio, Evan, BT, Sal and Morash. Fleigs has BT as the smartest. Al put Evan as smartest. Peter returns for an update and tells us his death row meal is a pizza burger. Peter doesn't know what veal is. He thinks it's ‘fake chicken'. Had no idea what type of animal it was. Rob Saleh is not going to talk about Aaron Rodgers playing until he's officially cleared. The Seahawks beat the Eagles 20-17 with Drew Lock at QB and he was very emotional after the game. Boomer said the Detroit Lions can go and get the number two seed now. The Knicks beat the Lakers in LA. In the final segment of the hour, Emily Ratajkowski left the Knicks game early and they don't want to give her free tickets anymore. They also felt she was rooting for Miami.  Hour 4 Tom Brady said quarterbacks are more responsible for injuries to wide receivers than defensive backs are since they are putting their teammates in terrible positions. He said we need better quarterback play. Boomer said Tom Brady was the best at putting the ball in places to keep his receivers safe. Gio called the Lions a ‘cute story' but it will be a bloodbath if they have to go into San Francisco. Peter returns for a final update but first we quiz him about various foods. Gio said he feels like he's on, ‘Kids Say The Darndest Things'. The Moment of The Day involves Peter's bachelor party at a Staten Island Yankees game. In the final segment of the show, a Seahawks staffer got into it with AJ Brown on the sideline. Gio worked the sideline for Pitt football for a few years and said he couldn't imagine getting involved with a player in any sort of sideline fracas. Mayor Adams had a very bizarre comment about New York and a plane crashing into the World Trade Center.

Lisa is a wonderful example of someone who chose to blossom when confronted with the reality of both job loss and health challenges. In 2014 she was laid off from her Human Resources Manager position. A few months later, she had half of her thyroid removed in error. This sent her on a long process of healing. It also encouraged a change of mindset and a decision to let go of what she describes as “who she used to be”. Lisa transitioned to offering her skills in a different way - as a Leadership Vision Coach and a Human Resources Cultural consultant.

In this episode, Mark Baratto sits down with famed artists D. Arthur Wilson and Lisa Wilson of Wilson Signature Collection Fine Art Gallery. We talk about how they both got started on their art journey and the origin of Rhupert by D. Arthur. More about D. Arthur Willson Embarking in the fourth decade on his artistic journey, D. Arthur Wilson constantly marvels at the adventure his life has become.   Born and raised near Dayton, Ohio and the son of an artist, his self-taught career began at the tender age of three with his first painting.  It is appropriate to assume that the wild heart of the artist wandered throughout a series of artistic styles before settling with his passion and self-defined style of “Wild Expressionism”. Moving from coast to coast as a quick sketch portrait artist allowed Wilson to explore the people and places that would eventually lead him to that first painting in his definitive style: the inaugural tiger, up close and personal that sold while on the easel before its completion. Since then, Wilson has created thousands of originals that capture the souls of the exotic, alluring beasts.  Rendered on European Suede Mat Board with specific application of pastel, Conte' crayon and charcoal, each is a masterpiece for generations to appreciate. Wilson's passion is not only for the wild menagerie that he paints, but for the preservation and conservation efforts as well.  His affiliations include Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge, Tippi Hedron's Shambala Preserve, SEE-North Raptor Education and Rehabilitation Center, The Digit Fund, Mission Wolf, Nebraska Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, Henry Doorly Zoo, Denver Zoo, Little Rock Zoo, Cheetah Conservation Fund, and is included in Who's Who in America.  Wilson's wild menagerie spans the globe with private and corporate collections around the world, and one animal in particular rose to the surface as his own character over a decade ago.  "Rhupert the Ostrich" emerged as D. Arthur's Wacky Philosopher and Lovable Icon and has collectors in all 50 states as well as numerous countries.  Rhupert's pure and positive message is one that Wilson lives on a daily basis:  "Be Yourself".  and in the words of Oscar Wilde, "Life Is Too Important To Be Taken Seriously".  Rhupert is a metaphor about the Human Condition, always reminding us to simply Be Ourselves, because quite frankly, everyone else is already taken! Wilson states:  “One of the most challenging undertakings a person can face, is to find out who you are, be who you are and then share who you are”. More about Lisa Wilson “…a dramatic blend of levity and profound depth, balanced with sensitivity and passion…”  This describes Abstract Expressionist, Lisa, to those who know her, and those who don't …yet.   An artist for most of her life, her definitive style of Expressionism evolved from her experience, passion and love of life the beauty they have offered.  Each dramatic work of art is a prayer; an offering surrendered in a spirit of innocent play and exploration.  A  Meditation…  Rendered in oil, acrylic, sculpting mediums and a multitude of color, on board, gold leaf or fine art acrylic, each Masterpiece begins to breathe.   With passionate relief, its topography unveils itself in a process upwards.    A journey of the soul, this artistic adventure has produced extraordinary images that evoke a primal reaction from Lisa's audience, collectors coast to coast and abroad, stirring their hearts and sparking the imagination. Contemporary, yet soulfully introspective, one needs only to pause and let her paintings speak;  to quiet their souls for just this moment, communicate in the language of the heart. An only child, she was fortunate to have endless artistic influences in her life that perpetuated a steady creative flow, beginning with the inspiration of her mother, an accomplished vocalist; her encouragement directly affected Lisa's ability to push through, discover, and find  her creative self.  As a result, Lisa  would spend hours creating, drawing, painting and immerse herself in art of every form.   An accomplished dancer, musician and vocalist, Lisa allowed the creative force to come forth and to flourish.   The joy of her family, the thrill experienced from raising her sons, living throughout the country, and experiencing the different rhythms of people have also been a major contributor to her perception and presentation of her art.    As a result, Lisa's paintings grace  homes and corporations internationally and throughout the country. "Art is in the perception; and my art would be shallow without the tapestry of love and relationships that make my life so rich— thus contributing to the final outcome on the canvas.”   Website:  https://artgonewildstudios.comGallery Website:  https://www.wilsonsignaturecollection.com/ Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/wilson_signature_collection/

Lisa Wilson's life started out as a pretty normal one. She went to school. As she graduated college she chose a career path and she was successful with her choice.   After 17 years working in the human resources field working mostly as an HR manager, she finally decided to leave the field after working for three years for a company that didn't value what a good HR manager could do to help the company succeed. Lisa always wanted to go into life and leadership coaching and so she finally did.   Then, due to a surgical procedure that should never have taken place, she lost half her thyroid gland. While the doctors acknowledged that the operation should have not taken place they assured her that she would resume the kind of active lifestyle she had before the procedure. Nothing could be further from the truth.   Listen this week to Lisa's story and see how she adapted to all the changes in her life and how she adapted and thrived. I am sure you will find Lisa Wilson's story engaging and inspiring.   About the Guest:   The best part of having a Human Resources (HR) department is that you have a management expert at your disposal. As a leader, when an issue comes up that you aren't sure how to deal with, you walk into the HR department and they walk you through it. Not all companies have this. Lisa has taken her success as an HR leader in large corporations and brought the opportunity to small to medium-sized companies. Offering training and coaching before and during those particularly sticky situations. Lisa is a Leadership/Corporate Coach, a Certified Human Resources Leader, and a trained Mediator. She had an HR career spanning 15 years, her drive had her in a manager's role 5 years into her career at 28 years old. While that drive helped her in her career, and volunteer roles with Rotary, the Human Resources Professionals Association, and Toastmasters, it was not helpful at all when she had her thyroid removed by mistake. What followed that surgery was 5 years of frustration and exhaustion. Lisa had to learn to rest. Not something that came to her easily. In this episode, she shares the lessons she learned that took her from days at a time on the couch to feeling like herself again.    Social media links:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisamaywilson/ https://www.facebook.com/LMWConsultation https://www.instagram.com/lmwconsultation/   About the Host: Michael Hingson is a New York Times best-selling author, international lecturer, and Chief Vision Officer for accessiBe.

And we hope that we can make it a little bit better. We have an interesting guest who has had some surprises in her life. Lisa Wilson has done a lot of work in the HR world. She's now a coach, and thought leader in a variety of subjects. She has also happened to be a person who has been listed and put in chapters in several books and is now writing her own. So there you go, another author. Lisa, welcome to unstoppable mindset. How are you?   Lisa Wilson  02:00 I'm great. Thanks, Michael.   Michael Hingson  02:02 And there's nothing wrong with being another author. Authors are good people to have around. They are. And he says, you know, but   Lisa Wilson  02:09 then you realize, yeah, well, it is,   Michael Hingson  02:11 you know, everyone has a story to tell. And the problem is we just don't get enough people thinking that they can tell the stories.   Lisa Wilson  02:19 Agreed. And I think people are so interesting. They have so many interesting stories, and we kind of put them off as things. Well, I did that. So no big deal. But it is yeah. Yeah, yeah.   Michael Hingson  02:32 I remember when we started writing for underdog I, I thought people would be interested in it. Someone said you should make it a business book. And I thought that it needed to be something of a more general nature than that. And it ended up being of a more general nature than that and people are interested. So it's, it's great to be able to share information.   Lisa Wilson  02:54 Well, you can always write to write just take the lessons from Thunder dog and make it a business book.   Michael Hingson  03:02 Well in there is always that. Yeah. Well tell us a little bit about you growing up and stuff like that.   Lisa Wilson  03:08 Hi, sure. So I grew up in a small town in northern Ontario, Canada. And I'm a very driven person. I don't know if I was when I was growing up. But when I got into university, I knew exactly what I wanted to do. It took love. I didn't know exactly what I wanted to do to go into school. I started in psychology. And after first year, I saw a lot of my friends were in business. And I really liked what they were taking. So I switched over. And my way to hold on to the psychology and I did hold on to the psychology that was kind of my backup courses that so all those electives that you get to take. Yes. And so I kept them on as electives. And when I took my first Organizational Behavior course, which is the first human resources course, I realized that it was almost a repeat of first year psychology. And so that was my way to meld the two. And I came out and that's really when I talked about it. That's the kind of drive I had my mom used to say to me, I don't even know where that comes from in you. I decided that when I left school, I was getting a job in HR. And that wasn't easy. People don't want you in HR. If you have no experience. It's a bit of a double edged sword you they don't want you if you have no experience and I get it after having been there for a while you it's really hard to step into that role. You really do need some experience. So for the first two years, I would take six month contracts. And I decided that I got my first full time role. So did for six month contracts for two years finally got a full time role and decided I was going to be an HR manager before I turned 30 And I was I at 28 I had been offered a job as a manager in my hometown when I was 27. But I knew I wasn't ready to take it so I turned it down. And I was working for a really awesome company at the time and a really great manager and I went to the manager and I said, I just turned down a management role. And I don't want to have to do that again. I know I'm not ready, can you tell me what I need to do to be ready. And so she said a couple of things. One was business writing. Oddly, they don't teach you proper business writing in university. So I took a course. And the other was public speaking, nobody believes me anymore. But I was a terrible public speaker, I was afraid. I spoke really quietly, and I like ran off the stage, I did one employee meeting, and my general manager had gone to her and said, Lisa can't do those anymore. So either she gets way better at it, or you're not allowed to put her up there in your place anymore. So I went to Toastmasters and learn how to do that. And within the year, the same job came back up. So I, I was offered the job. And this time I took it, there was no interview or anything. They just called me said, are you ready now? And I said, Yep, I went back. And so I had my HR managers role by the time I was 30.   Michael Hingson  06:00 That's pretty cool. So what do you like about or what did you like about being an HR manager and working in HR?   Lisa Wilson  06:07 I like lots of different things. And HR is never the same. And I remember having a woman come in to talk to we had like an HR club at university, and I said, Can you give us a day in the life? And she said, No. And that is the reality, there is no day in the life of an HR person. It's really, there's so many different things that you're dealing with, on any given day that it's really hard to say, Okay, I come in, and I do this, because I used to come in with a plan for the day, and then something would happen, and it was all gone. Yeah, hope I was gone. And, you know, I'd be dealing with that instead for that day. So I really liked the variety of it. Plus, having that ability to connect with people. So I got to connect with leaders and help them in their role, I got to connect with people who were, I worked in manufacturing type environment, so I got to work with people who are working on the floor. And then you know, I got to be at meetings with the CEOs. So it was I got such a variety of everything in what I did all day in the people I worked with. And so I think that was a huge thing for me, I really enjoyed it.   Michael Hingson  07:14 What exactly does an HR person or will take you an HR manager do what what is the job.   Lisa Wilson  07:22 So this changes all the time. So they I've noticed now when I am not looking for a job, but they pop up in LinkedIn and stuff to let you know, and they've changed the name to like people and culture or engagement officers, things like that. So the role has, I don't think the role itself has changed from what I know, but they just changed the name to in the hopes of making it sound a little bit better. My definition was this, we have in all companies that that grow like that you have people working for you, that's the humans and and you're they are a resource to the company. So you need those humans, they're doing what they're doing. And I say the the reason it's called Human Resources is we need to recognize that the people working for us our resource, they are getting us to where we need to in the company, but we still need to treat them like human beings. And so HR makes sure that that happens. So there's a constant balance when you're working in HR of taking care of the business and making sure the business is moving forward. Because at the end of the day, if the business isn't making money, all those people are gonna lose their job anyway, eventually, so you need that needs to happen. But then you also have to take care of your people, if you can't take care of your people so well that you know, you don't make any money that you can't make that you can't sort of treat them so badly, that you're making a ton of money, but they're not going to stay. So there's it was a constant balance I say that you're looking at so probably the other reason I liked it is is there was that constant. Okay, how do we make sure the business runs, but still take care of our staff.   Michael Hingson  08:54 One of the things about society that still very much exists today, when we talk about diversity in, in the workforce and so on, is a disabilities tend to be left out, we just still don't see the same level. And I specifically deal of course with blindness, but it goes beyond that. And and I have found in a lot of us have found that HR people tend to be a reflection of society. How are you going to do this job or we we just aren't convinced that you could could possibly do the work. And some of us have the view that HR was supposed to be kind of a little bit more open than that. But it doesn't always work that   Lisa Wilson  09:42 way. So I think that it's like anything else. Some of us are different than others. And while some are better at it, some are, you know, terrible at it. And I think it's that whole balance of we still have to take care of the company but we also need to take care of our people. So And where does that balance fit in? I heard a really great presentation about this. And, and the reality is, if there's like for you, you can't see the world isn't set up for you. And so you are, for lack of a better term smarter than the rest of us. Because every day you have to make tougher decisions than we do. And you've learned to be adaptive. And so this the presentation was basically that and it was actually a person who I believe he was hard of hearing. I don't think he was deaf. I think he was hard of hearing. Because he came in he spoke to us. And, and we were able to ask questions, but I don't I'm not I can't remember exactly how they got the questions to him. And he ran a Tim Hortons. And he talked about that, that, you know, he was he really worked really hard to make sure he hired people with with disabilities. And he told us the story of a woman who was was also deaf, and she was completely deaf and was working at Tim Hortons. Really smart woman, like had a really great education, but couldn't get a job anywhere, for exactly the reasons you're saying is that they that the HR people or the company themselves, sometimes the HR, people are fighting for it, just so you know. But sometimes it's an uphill battle, and we have to pick our battles. And so she I can't remember what Her background was, but like science based kind of thing. She was working at Tim Hortons, and she had been helping in the front, I think. And then she said, Well, I'd like to be a baker. And he kind of said, What you said was, okay, great. We use audible tones to tell us when everything's done. So go in the kitchen and take a look around and see how you might figure that out. She came back within two minutes. And she said, what's the numbers on the on the ovens? And he said, Oh, it's a countdown timer. And she said, so the audible noises are for the lazy bakers. He said, yep. And he moved her in because there he forgot that that was there. She didn't she didn't even need anything special. The numbers were there, she could see them.   Michael Hingson  12:03 There's a television show here in the United States. That wasn't on last year. And I don't know whether it will return. It's called What will you What would you do? Have you heard of that? Yes, I have. Yeah. So it's a show where they create situations. And there is an actor who comes in and, and plays a part. And maybe there's more than one actor. And then the idea is to see how people around them react. And in the first year of the show, to deaf people went to a coffee shop. And this was all created by what would you do? And John can Jonas and also the Rochester is this too for the deaf. And so the the scenario was there was a guy behind the counter of barista who was an actor in this case. And there were there were two people who are deaf and one was applying for a job at the at the coffee place. And so they went in and they, this person went to the counter and said, I want to apply for a job. And of course, the whole idea was to put every roadblock in her way that he could. And so she said I want to apply for a job, but well, but you know, I'm not sure that you'd be a good fit here. Well, well, why not? Well, you can't hear and well, this is a kitchen job, right? Well, it is. And sometimes I need to give orders and I need you to be able to hear them well be you could write them down, but I don't have time to write them down. And this went on for a while. And there were some people who just ignored it and some people who paid attention. And finally, and this was kind of I think the interesting part of the segment, three people pulled the barista aside. They were HR people for a company. And what they said to him was, look, you're handling this all wrong, these people have more rights than anyone else. If it's not a fit, you just take the application, you don't argue and you're right, not a good fit on the application, and then you let them go. And that happens in one way or another all too often. And, of course they it showed up they didn't reveal those people's names. And there was there was another woman in the shop who really hit the roof over the whole thing. And of course John King Jonas came in and explained who he was and what was going on. And so it was addressed, but but the reality is that what most people don't understand is hiring persons with disabilities ought to be and making reasonable accommodations should be part of the cost of doing business. And it's just as much a part of the cost of doing business as somebody's paying for the electric bill. So there can be lights for all of you like dependent sighted people to be able to see in a building, or providing computer monitors or providing that fancy Do coffee machines so that people can go to the lunchroom and get coffee. providing reasonable accommodations should be just as much a part of the cost of doing businesses that, but we're not there yet. And that's unfortunate.   Lisa Wilson  15:14 We are. I mean, we're getting there. I know in Canada, we have rules around that. So if you if your building is not, I'm not coming up with the right word, but if your building doesn't have say, a ramp and things like that, so it's not accessible, there's the word. So if your buildings not accessible, and you do a bunch of renovations, you are required now to make it accessible while you're renovating. There are some buildings still that, you know, aren't there, but we actually had, I'm loving the new generation, the generation that's coming up, they're just so so thoughtful. We had a school in our town build ramps for all the the downtown businesses that don't have ramps, and, and they just built wooden ramps, they're simple wooden ramps. And so that that made their buildings accessible.   Michael Hingson  16:05 well made, it made the interesting building accessible, of course, yes, yeah, who knows about the doorways and who knows about counters and other things like that? And then, of course, who knows about whether, you know, other things were but but yeah, I hear what you're saying.   Lisa Wilson  16:19 But it's, but it's a start. Right. So and there's a start? And where I see is that it came from the next generation? It was high school kids. Yeah. So So for me, I'm like, Okay, that's good. We're coming around. I think the I think there's a lot of education needed. And I think that's, that's the piece that needs to come as there's we there's are so there is also a requirement to accommodate. And the problem is how we get there, right? So it's, you have to get in the door. And that's the problem is when we can't get in the door, then then the the next issue comes up. Once someone's there, so say someone works for us, something happens, they go blind, we're required, then to make sure that their workplace is accessible. We can't just fire, it's not a thing. In some cases, in Canada, in some cases, that does happen, it's not they don't get fired, they get retrained, we have systems in Canada, that will retrain you for certain things. If the job really, you can't do that job anymore, because the reality where I worked, like I said, I was in working in manufacturing type places. So they were very dependent that you could see there was moving equipment, things like that. So was it would have been safe to have someone. But what happened is say they something happened and they had something come up, then we were required to accommodate them, which meant either move them around in the company, and at the last resort was they would be retrained to work, possibly somewhere else or possibly with us.   Michael Hingson  17:52 So of course, the idea behind the idea behind moving equipment and so on not being safe is also still relative, there may very well be ways to address that issue, just like there were ways for the person at Tim Hortons to be able to, you know, and the problem is that sometimes none of us know the ways. So it doesn't mean that they're not there. And it doesn't mean that they are. But we need to be open. And I agree with you that our next generation is tending to be more open, at least while they're in high school and college. And then I guess we'll see what happens once they move beyond that. And that could be   Lisa Wilson  18:33 louder about it, though, to be louder about it. They really do. I really, they they've done a lot of really good things. And they seem to be louder about it. So I do hope that they hold on to that. And I think because they are changing the adults mind. Great. So how do we change a society? One of the one of one of the big tricks we use is change the kids. Because then like when we wanted recycling, where it was it sold as much was sold to the kids. And then the kids came home and guilt their parents into   Michael Hingson  19:07 recycling. Right. Yeah.   Lisa Wilson  19:09 And so the parents because the kids are learning the parents are learning.   Michael Hingson  19:13 Did this. Go ahead?   Lisa Wilson  19:15 Oh, no, I was just gonna say so it's, it's starting. And then but you're right. I think that that imagination so. So like I said, anyone who's living with a disability, they're they're already more creative. The reality is because you have to be because because we built the world for the light. I love that term, the light dependent. The world is built for the light dependent. And, and we can't imagine the problem is we can imagine how does it work? How does it work then? Like I'm thinking about so when you said that, you know, maybe there were ways so I was starting to think about okay, so how did that how would I have? How would I have protected someone out on the shop floor when? When there's you know Like forklifts moving around quite a bit and things like that. And, and we had lots of protections. So there's probably some of the jobs maybe we needed to protect them getting to and from, because we couldn't put up barriers because it would get in the way of the forklift. But we could protect them getting to and from, like, have someone take them out to their job, but then we had so many protections, you're right, they could have done it.   Michael Hingson  20:21 But the issue is, why do we, why do we need protections it's all about listening to. And yeah, the fact is that, that that people do work in manufacturing environments and forklift situations and so on. The other part about it is learning how those things work. And I know of a number of manufacturing facilities, where there are people who are blind, who are part of the, the everyday work, and forklifts drive around and don't run over people. It's all about listening to Yeah, it is true that most people can't imagine that unfortunately, in the case of light dependency, reasonable accommodation has been taken to the max. I mean, the reality is 160 years ago, or whenever it was, was done, Thomas Edison invented the electric light bulb, to give you guys light in what otherwise might have been dark situations. And now everyone has lights, but it doesn't change the fact that the disability of needing to have those lights is still there. And so you, you deal with being able to drive forklifts because you have lights in the building, and you have other lights on the forklift and so on. But that's still a reasonable accommodation, in one sense for a disability. And I and I've sometimes talk about that in a in a facetious way, but the reality is, it is true. And we need to learn to become more inclusive in some way. Yes, yeah, we do. Know what I was gonna gonna say earlier when you're trying to buy kids and change society by changing the children. The dates me but the old joke. Yeah, the problem is that the only ones who could ever run VCRs were kids, no adults could never figure out how to do this. That's true. So so there you go. So you know, maybe there is some things adults will never learn. So what did we do? We came up with different technology. We don't use VCRs anymore, but I don't know whether they're whether all the new technologies are all that much easier in some senses, but people figure them out. Yeah.   Lisa Wilson  22:25 We all eventually figure it out. Yeah, one way or another. But yeah, I agree. I think I think some of it I just can't even imagine, right, we had dumb, we did have someone who was losing their hearing in where I was working. There's lots of really awesome tools. Now. I found the coolest headphones that so so he couldn't wear his the so we all work ear protection. So the rest of us wear ear protection so that we didn't lose our hearing. And so for him, he needed something. But as soon as we then protected his hearing, he went completely deaf. So that didn't help. Right. So now we're protecting him and making it worse. So we found these really neat headsets that instead of it being like something blocking inside your ear, it was a you know, something went over your head, and they had a microphone in it and the microphone in it would take away all of the other sound. And so I went out and try them, they unfortunately didn't end up working for him. They just didn't they couldn't make the the sound loud enough for him. So we figured out other things, we had some lights for him and things like that, where he was he was very, he was very well protected. So it wasn't, you know, he wasn't going to be in the way of, of, of anything of forklifts or anything like that, that he might not have heard the noise. Like the whole building itself was very loud. But I was like, there's so many things and until you are in the situation, you have to look it up. And that's why I say the problem is getting people in the door. Because if I never if that gentleman hadn't been losing his hearing, I I would never sent my nurse to do the research.   Michael Hingson  24:01 Right along. How long ago was this? Oh, it   Lisa Wilson  24:04 was I left that company in 2008.   Michael Hingson  24:08 Okay, so but if Yeah, there are there are so many advances that are that are coming up their bone conduction headphones so that it completely bypasses the ear. And that may be some of what you were you were talking about. But and those have even gotten better. That fact is what what a number of people have discovered is that rather than having bone conduction headphones, and in fact I'm using them now it's they're much less visible, but they actually sit right in front of your ear. And it completely goes through the bone and doesn't even go into the ear at all. But what we also know is that you can even get better sound and better bone conduction by having something that sits behind the ear because then you're not going through so much of the bone, you're going through more of the soft tissue. And the audio from those kinds of technologies is incredible. And the reality is, in both cases, what it does is it bypasses what is usually the problem for a person who is deaf or hearing impaired they they bypass the ears and go straight into the the eardrum or pass the eardrum to the central part of the nerves for hearing.   Lisa Wilson  25:26 So cool. And see, it's all there. We just like I said, unaware, just unaware, and it's until we learn, right? So like I said it now, I don't I've never had anyone who has tried to come and work there who had a disability like that, like it just it wasn't a thing. Because most people just, I don't know, it just didn't come up. And maybe because our whole town, it's a smaller town wasn't as adaptable. But I've Well, I don't know that that's the case we had, we had a physio who was blind to and he was fine. He's, he's able to go through the, you know, the town was okay for him. But yeah, I think what happens is, there's more supports in larger cities, and so that we don't see it as much in the smaller places. But we also   Michael Hingson  26:13 oftentimes try to create more fixes than we need to. You know, we don't we don't need every traffic signal in a town to make a noise so that you know, when the light is changed, the reality is you can listen to the traffic. And unfortunately, sometimes people rely too much on the traffic signals. And so Oh, it's beeping, so it must be safe to go. No, it doesn't mean it is safe to go. It only means it's supposed to be your turn. You still have to listen to the traffic just as well, I would have to listen to the traffic, just as you would have to watch the traffic.   Lisa Wilson  26:52 Yes. Yeah. And I think I don't think that's a thing for just people who have who are hard of hearing or can't see, I think that's a problem for drivers as well. You know, we don't pay attention, you don't look for everything.   Michael Hingson  27:07 I think the time is coming when autonomous vehicles will basically take over and will take driving out of the hands of drivers, which may not be such a bad thing the way people drive today.   Lisa Wilson  27:16 Yes, true. We had a friend of mine was hit by a car for exactly that reason that you're saying is is she was walking at when the thing said walk and someone had an opportunity to turn left and he turned left and didn't pay attention to the fact that she was walking. And that's exactly it an end for us. What I say is it's it's it's not lazy. It's that we're not used to it. There's not a ton of pedestrians in our downtown getting a little bit more so now but so we we don't think to do it. Whereas like I go downtown Toronto and I am on high alert the whole time I'm there because there's pedestrians, there's people driving, there's, you know, there's so many things happening that you're on high alert, whereas here, we sort of get complacent because there isn't that high traffic and people,   Michael Hingson  28:02 which is a good thing. Yeah. The thing is in like where I live in Victorville drivers are becoming more and more aggressive every day, if you're not moving fast enough, even if you're driving, you're not going fast enough for them, they honk at you, they're just impatient. They're aggressive. And that leads to problems we are we are not what we used to call defensive drivers anymore, which is unfortunate because we weirs in such a hurry. We miss out on a lot of things anyway. But we also make life less safe for everyone when we do that.   Lisa Wilson  28:35 Yeah. And I think well, I was hopeful that kind of people having to slow down a little bit in the last couple of years, because we weren't going as many places that it might, it might help some of that to keep people but I don't know that it has.   Michael Hingson  28:50 Well, so how long did you stay in the HR world?   Lisa Wilson  28:54 I think officially like I think it was 17 years.   Michael Hingson  29:00 And then what caused you to switch.   Lisa Wilson  29:02 So I had a couple of really good experiences, I worked for some really good companies. And then I once I took the management role, I sort of had a series of less than stellar companies to work for, we'll call it and the last one was the absolute worst for me. And it just got to a point I was only there three years. But I how I put it as I was a terrible hire for them. They should never have hired me. And the reality was I think they were desperate at the time they had been searching for someone for a while. And probably I should have known better too. So it's not all and then but when I was in the interview, they said things to me like we were discussing different things I'd done because I'd worked for lots of different companies by this point. And so I had some really good tips and tools and ways to organize things because I'd learned from all these different companies. And when I was in the interview, the woman kept saying, Oh, that's great. We need someone like he was ideas. We need to change some things. We need all those ideas. And then once I got there, what they would say to me Is assimilate, Lisa. So IE don't give us your ideas. We don't care about your ideas, just do what you're told. And that's not me. That's not who I am. And that's not what made me great at HR will get made me great at HR was that ability to go in and go, Okay, how do we fix this? And this isn't working, right, let's make it better. And they were just such a large organization that that wasn't what they were looking for. And it really took its toll on me. Really, initially, when I left, I was not a leadership coach, I walked away from HR completely on had nothing to do with businesses, it was just going to life coach, just just like coaching, which is not my passion. And it took me quite a while to come back from that note took about about three years. And then thankfully, I was paid really well. So thankfully, they they did a reorganization. And then that reorg i was i My position was let go, which I have never been more grateful for anything. It's not a normal reaction to a layoff.   Michael Hingson  31:03 Right? Yeah. Well, what what does a life coach do? So? Well? How's that for an open ended question? Yeah.   Lisa Wilson  31:16 So the reality is each, most of the time coaches will have a niche that they they go for, like, they want to work with people who are struggling with a particular thing. And it usually comes from our life, right? So something in our life that we've overcome, and we help others walk through the same thing, so that they don't have to necessarily walk through it alone. Many of people who are in coaching are part because they found a coach that helped them through something. And so now they're doing the same. And really, that's where mine came from, as well. One of the jobs I was working out as I was getting really frustrated, and I met a coach and I ended up going and getting some coaching and then taking her coaching course. So that's where this came from. And I always had the goal. So when I left that job, I always knew I was going to start a coaching company, I just My intention was always to be a leadership coach. So we working more with CEOs. And that was always my goal. But after having been there for three years, it just rocked my confidence so much that I stepped completely away from anything to do with HR.   Michael Hingson  32:19 And then you eventually went back to what your your passion lunch, which was leadership coaching,   Lisa Wilson  32:24 exactly I did. And I do some HR consulting as well. But what I see I focus more on the culture. And I have to be careful how I say that. Because when people hear that they think I talk about help people working with different cultures come together, right? But that's not the idea. Every company culture, yeah, every company has its own culture. And if you're not paying attention to what that is, the culture creates itself. And then it becomes a really difficult thing to change.   Michael Hingson  32:50 Well along the way, then we haven't really referred to it, but you had an unexpected life change. And so why don't you tell us a little bit about that? Because I think that that will make that will make for interesting thought provoking discussions here.   Lisa Wilson  33:07 Yes. So the after just after coming out of that job, so I don't know if this is part of the reason is the stress at that job was quite high. And I often had odd illnesses while I was working there. So just different things would come up. I'm not the type of person that gets like a flu and just lies down I might get like a skin rash, or something that actually comes from a virus because my body is tired, and I'm so stressed. So I had lots of those little things. And I got to a point a doctor had said to me, Look, if you can't, if you can't take like, can you take a vacation? And I said, Yes, I can actually I was looking at vacations as as I was sitting waiting to come in here and he said, Okay, he said, because if you can't, I'm I'm, I'm putting you off on sick leave. And so I did, I went away, but very shortly after working there, they discovered they had been watching they discovered a lump on my thyroid, and they've been watching it. Now, I need to clarify this right at the beginning is that women typically have lumps on our thyroid. If you're into the spiritual side, it's a heart chakra or it's your throat chakra. And so you know not to be using our voices is part of what comes that comes from this, but that's the sort of spiritual side of it. But women typically have them they can be cancerous, they can be non cancerous, they're just lumps on our thigh, right? They show up and they are not harmful. They grow really, really slowly. So even if they are cancerous, it takes them a really long time to grow. So I did have one they were watching. And six months after I left this place, they thought that that lump had grown for some reason from 2.4 centimeters to 4.2 centimeters and six months. And that's unheard of. They didn't understand why that was happening. They that that didn't make any sense for it to grow that quickly. Was was ridiculous. So they said to me, Look, we think we need to take it out. It's growing too fast, that's it's very bizarre, best thing to do is just take it out, it will harm you, you'll be fine, you'll come back to full, you know, you'll be fine. The rest of the other half will, will pick up, and it'll do what it needs to do and your body will be fine. So I have, I said, Okay, you can put me on the list. And I had a panic attack sometime shortly after that. And it was one of those moments where I just there was this voice in my head that said, do not have the surgery, don't have the surgery. And I thought, and I pushed it away. I went, No, Lisa, don't be ridiculous. You don't like it's he's a great doctor. He is a great doctor, the man that took care of me as a wonderful doctor. So I have nothing bad to say about him.   Lisa Wilson  35:44 I just pushed it away. But I think I told my mom. And so we went and got a second opinion. And I went to the second opinion, the second time I didn't do what I needed to do was I had a disk with all of my scans on it. And I didn't give it to the second opinion doctor, he just felt my throat, he felt the lump. And he said, Look, there's a lump there, don't be afraid, it's not going to be a big deal. You know, go get the surgery. And I had that that disc and I didn't give it to him. I did have the surgery that took out half my thyroid, he the doctor is wonderful. He's he learns. So he made a mistake once where he got in and found out that a woman had was cancerous, because he can tell by looking he's done so many. And he needed to take the whole thyroid out. So he made us sign he made me sign before he went into the surgery that if he finds cancer on either on the other side that he can do take the whole thing out. So he's so he's that's why I say I have just really high thoughts to this doctor. So we did it was fine. No, I didn't need to take the other one out. When he took it out. He said it's fine. The lump wasn't cancerous. You're okay. You know, you'll heal, it'll be fine. I didn't though, for for years after I went from the person who did p90x and CrossFit, and mountain biking, and kayaking, and I could you know, spend a whole day running or doing whatever I've done, I've actually done a half marathon as well. Not my favorite thing. But I went from that person to a person who could do 10 minutes of exercise. And if I do any more, I burned myself out. And worse than that was when the doctor so right after the surgery, he said, you're good to go. It wasn't cancerous, you'll be okay. And that was the other piece I forgot to mention is they don't even even if it's cancerous, they don't even look at the, at your thyroid until it's at least four centimeters. And then they start to watch more closely. So anything under that they just leave because it's healthier for you to keep it there than it is to have it taken out. So he when I went back for the follow up after the surgery, he said to me, he sat and he had his his hands over his face. So he was kind of like all of his fingers were splayed at the top of his forehead and he had his hands on his knees, elbows on his knees, and was holding himself up. And he just and I thought why does he look like that? Like he looked distressed? I thought okay, why does he look like that? He told me it wasn't cancerous. Why? Why does he look like that. And the reason he looked like that is because it was a mistake. That lump had not grown. We think it was a typo. So they took out half my thyroid on a typo. And it was obviously very shocking and upsetting because I was also supposed to come back to full energy and I never did. So for quite some time I spoke someone else who had her phone had the full thing taken out. She said Lisa, it'll take you about a year. So don't don't push it for the first year, just accept that you're going to be a little less energy, but after a year, but I never came back. So now I can do. I walk my dog for 20 minutes in the morning, which I never considered walking exercise before now. That was just something you did to get from place A to place B. But now it's I fully that's like I can walk the dog and then do 10 minutes of some other form of exercise that includes like yoga or the or Pilates or something that's a little bit what I would refer to as easier when when you're doing p90x And CrossFit. I'm used to doing like pull ups and really big things like that. So doing Pilates and stuff was fairly easy for me or used to be. Now it's just does the same thing and burns me right out. I could so initially I could get through the workouts, but then I would spend the next two days on the couch because my my adrenals would be so Bert.   Michael Hingson  39:36 There were not medications that you could take to kind of offset some of the lack of what the thyroid produces.   Lisa Wilson  39:45 Yes, so there is something called Synthroid they we tried it twice so they put me on what they would normally start someone on, which I think is like point five, I can remember what the measurement is but they put me on whatever it was point five. And I What happened is it made me really hyper. And I realized about a month in, I was like, I was walking the dog. And I was like, I want to run, like my heart wanted me to run. And I started to run up the road. And then I was like, this isn't a good idea, I haven't run in a year, I shouldn't I need to be careful, I'm going to, like, I'm gonna hurt my muscles like, this isn't a good idea, right? You shouldn't just start from a sprint, that's not a good choice for your body. And, and then I became really agitated. So it wasn't a very nice person. I had a friend over one day, and she said something to me. And I snapped at her. And that's totally not my personality. I thought, okay, that's bizarre. And so I went off of it, I told him when it happened, and I went off of it. So then we left it for a month or so. And I tried it again, but now at a lower dose. So now 2.25. And all that happened is it took me two months to get there. So they my doctor didn't really want to put me on it. He said that my my thyroid numbers are fine. So according to Western medicine, I'm completely healthy. And it took me a really long time. Even I switched doctors after a while it took me a long time to convince the next doctor that there was a problem and get her to start sending me to different specialists to try and figure out what was going on. It took like two or three years actually to get her to pay attention. She just assumed which is a thing in in medical worlds that if a woman is tired, She's depressed. And so I was the first thing she said to me, are you depressed? And I said, Well, no, I didn't. I gave her the benefit of the doubt because she was a new doctor. I said, look, okay, maybe I am depressed. What would we do? I won't go on medication right away. That's not something I want to do. If I were depressed, what would we do? And she said, Well, cognitive behavioral therapy. I said, Okay, is that me sitting on the couch on those days that I can't move saying, It's okay. Your life is good. You're just tired. And she I said, repeating that to myself? She goes, Oh, yeah, that's exactly what that is. And I said, Okay, so I'm a life coach. So I know those two those tips. And she was like, Oh, okay. But even that she didn't, you know, she didn't move on. She didn't send me to any student look it up. She didn't send me anything. And I then But then what started to happen is, I have the propensity for high cholesterol and diabetes, both runs in my family, and I know this, I've known it for years, I don't believe that it's a something that's going to happen to you. You can fight it with how you live your life. So I had known this and I always thought it was my diet and exercise. But because the exercise was gone. I wasn't able to I was starting to have high a one a one C or H. I can't remember what it is. But anyway, the the blood sugar basically was my blood. I want to see how anyone see. Yeah. So my blood sugar was going up. And with the cholesterol numbers were starting to go up. And it was when she came to me with the with the cholesterol numbers. She said, you're just at the point where you need medication when you take medication. I said absolutely not. She said, Okay. And I said, Look, I've been telling you for years, I can't exercise. I can't do more than 10 minutes or a burnout. My cholesterol is going up because I can't exercise. And she said she was like, okay, and even that didn't get to her because I was annoyed with her. So then the next time I went in, I said to her look, I'm gonna give you an example of what's going on in my life. My grandmother at the time, had dementia and lived close to me. My parents were about an hour away. She fell and broke her hip and was in the hospital. So my parents called and said, Can you go to the hospital? I said, Absolutely. So I went straight to the hospital. My dad got in the car. He met with me about two hours later. So my 77 year old father, and I was in my early 40s. Drove the hour we both stayed in the hospital till midnight. At that time, they decided to keep my grandmother so we both came home. I made up a bed who got to bed about one in the morning. He got up the next morning at seven I got up with him. He had breakfast, did what he needed. And he went back to the hospital to be with my grandmother. I had worked that day. But I thankfully didn't have any clients till the afternoon because he got up. He went to take care of my grandmother got her settled and then drove home. I on the other hand, couldn't handle the day and went back to bed. So that and I said, you know when my 75 year old father can handle less sleep than I can. There's a problem. And that was when she finally went Oh, and she heard me. But it took years   Michael Hingson  44:30 who was awful. And and then what happened.   Lisa Wilson  44:33 So she did start sending me to different specialists. But still according to Western medicine, I am completely healthy. There are no numbers that are off there are no as far as they're concerned. I've seen several different specialists that don't have any thyroid illnesses. So they've checked different things. They've checked for fibromyalgia, they've checked for all of these different things and I don't meet any of them. So as according to Western medicine, I'm completely healthy. So what? So what I started to do was go off of Western medicine. And I've been seeing naturopaths actually, the the first big step for me was, I eventually did get to a point where I actually was starting to get depressed. Depression, for me doesn't look like what people pictured in depression, which is like you're sitting in the bed and you can't move and, and that kind of things. That's not what it looks like for me. For me, depression looks like a overwhelm, and I get angry faster. So I have very little patience. And I'm still getting up and doing what I need to do, because I'm so action oriented and so driven, that I'm still getting up and doing what I need to do. But I'm not a very kind person in that. I'm just grumpy and overwhelmed and tired. And I just got to a point where when I recognized it was I the word the thought went through my head that I just wanted to die at this point, I'm done, I'm done fighting this, I can't get any help I need. And my mom told me about a woman that some friends of ours had been working with, and she's what they call a medical intuitive. And so you just go on a call with her, and she sort of reads what's going on with you. And so she gave me a couple of things. One was that my body was full of Candida, we all have Candida, but if you get an overgrowth, you you'll get pains in your muscles and different things. So that was the first one. So she she suggested a cleanse to clean that up. And then a diet a big diet change. And so she that was my first step. And then after doing the cleanse, I just felt so much better. I literally had pain in all over my body all the time. And I thought it was because I couldn't do exercise anymore where I couldn't stretch and couldn't do that stuff. But it really it was this overgrowth of Candida.   Michael Hingson  46:40 So yeah, go ahead. What did you do?   Lisa Wilson  46:44 So that was the first step was, was really big change in my diet. I also started then seeing naturopaths, who helped me through a few other things. So what how the naturopath there's no really tests for this. But what they describe is that my adrenals burn out really quickly. So I use adrenaline when I was so when I was tired, my body was using adrenaline to push me forward, and then my adrenaline burns out. And I've got no natural energy to keep going. We don't normally use our adrenaline to keep going. But that's what I was doing every day just to be able to move through the day. And so when I was doing that, that heavy exercising, that's what was happening is I was just I my body would shoot a whole pile that pile of adrenaline in my system. And then it had nothing left for two days. So I've learned that and I've sort of accepted now that I won't ever be able to do the p90x or CrossFit or any of those things anymore. I do my little 10 minute workouts, when I have the energy for it. If I don't have the energy for it, I walked the dog and I stopped. And that's the end of the exercise of just sort of had to accept a new way. And then I have to be prepared if I'm doing anything. So for example, It's summer now I like to go kayaking. So I'll go kayaking for maybe a half hour but then I have to recognize that then the following day. I shouldn't have anything big plant   Michael Hingson  48:02 or get a kayak with a motor. Yeah.   Lisa Wilson  48:06 Yeah, it's not it's not really the same but yes. Yeah.   Michael Hingson  48:10 Just just an alternative you know? Or, or just save money and take a big cruise.   Lisa Wilson  48:18 Yes, that too. But we do need some exercise. Regardless, I need some kind of exercise. Yeah.   Michael Hingson  48:26 But are you are you able to do things for any longer period of time are there things from Eastern medicine, other kinds of alternatives that helped me be bring back some of that stamina or nothing that you've discovered yet.   Lisa Wilson  48:41 So the one thing that did get better is when I when I do the cleanse, and then I eat clean for a long time and so clean, I wanted to just be clear that clean looks different for everyone. For me, it means something savory instead of sweet for breakfast. And it doesn't matter if I'm using like non sugary breakfast, like even just an apple. If I have too much sugar in the morning, I'll crave it all day. Even a carb so if I'm I pretty close to keto. It's, I say close but I don't some of the things I don't like in keto or how much fat and that is in there. So I'm I'm basically I'm a meat and veg person now. Even breakfast like breakfast is all fry up a bunch of vegetables and whatever meat we eat that night kind of thing. Or the night before whatever's whatever's available or just through some ground beef in it if we don't have anything reasonable. So that's helpful for me if and then staying off sugar and carbs. My body can handle them, but it will it will send me again into a slump. So really learn what to   Michael Hingson  49:44 eat or stay away from it. So your life your life has changed significantly. How long ago was the surgery?   Lisa Wilson  49:53 So in 2014, it was it was literally the year I got laid off and was trying to start my business I started to have no energy, maybe the worst possible time to have no energy. So 2014 It's almost been 10 years. It's been. It's been a long, 10 years. And I'm recognizing recently, how much I've changed in it. Because when it was first happening, I like I was fighting it, right. I just kept trying, I was like, No, I can build back up to this exercise. So I would do 10 minutes, and the next week, I would do 20. And then I would, you know, try and build up, and then I would fall apart again. So no, it never worked. And, and that was frustrating. For me, for a very driven person who's very action oriented, it was really, really frustrating. So my mental health wasn't good. And the state of my mind wasn't good, I'll say. So there was just a chi was like, literally in a constant battle with my own body. And how I say I've come around now is that haven't been as careful recently, we were doing some remodeling in the house. So we weren't planning meals as well and things. And just, you know, life took over. And so I started eating things that I probably shouldn't be eating, but they were quick, and they were easy. So I started to see the problems come around again. And there were so many like, it would take me hours to tell you all the things, but some of the things were like pain in my body from for no reason. I had trouble sleeping, I had a really hard time sleeping. And on those nights, and it would be that my adrenaline kicked in at the wrong time. So so I'd be tired all afternoon. And then when it's time to go to bed at you know, 910 o'clock, the adrenaline would kick back in. So, so then I'd be wide awake. And when in those moments, I was angry, because I was stressing about the following day, how am I gonna run a business if I can get to sleep at night, and you know, I would stress through it. And over the last little while where I watched my watch some of this come back where I'm lying in bed and I can't sleep. It's been maybe the last two or three years where that'll happen again, sometimes when I'm just you know, life happens, and I'm just not paying attention as well, or I go somewhere that you don't have as much control over food, you know, you're eating whatever is available to you. And I discovered now that instead of, you know, freaking out or, or getting upset or stressing about what's going to happen, the next day is my mind just goes okay, go read a book. And I'll get up and I'll go read a book, I've now bought an e reader. So you don't actually have to get out of bed and turn on the light, I can just use the e reader. So I'm not waking up my boyfriend. But I just read the book until I actually want to sleep. And then I sleep when I sleep. And I I never booked my days so full that I can't have a nap in the middle of the day or have a rest somewhere in the middle of the day. So I just have allowed that to happen. And then if I need a nap, I take a nap. So what   Michael Hingson  52:50 are you doing now for work?   Lisa Wilson  52:52 So I work, I work for myself. I work I do the life coaching or not the life coaching, the leadership coaching, and I work from home. So that's why I say I've never booked my days so much that I have like one thing after another, there's always at least a half an hour between things. So worst case, I can have a 10 minute nap. And that helps. It's partly planning in my life. But it's also just where my mindset is gone. So that even if I knew I had that time the following day. Previously, I was so angry that my body wasn't doing what it was supposed to do that I couldn't get through it. And now I just go, Oh, well can't sleep Mazal read my book.   Michael Hingson  53:30 So you progressed a lot, you certainly could have become very bitter over all this that have happened to you. And you don't sound like you're a very bitter person.   Lisa Wilson  53:39 No, I'm talking. I think. I think there have been times I mean, I work lots with us, you know, the like you said the Eastern medicine and things. So I've done can't think of what it's called the little needles in it. The names that. Yeah, I've done acupuncture, and I do a lot of meditating. And I do lots of things like that. And I spoke to a woman one time who does a modality we'll call them where she works through things that are going on in your body. And basically our bodies Hold on, because we're not very good at dealing with our emotions, our bodies will hold emotions. And so her thing was, it was very an interesting process. It was just on Zoom, and she works through with me. And the she doesn't know me. She doesn't know my story. She said around this time, and she gave me the age that I had the surgery sent around this age in your life. You have horror stuck in your body. That's like horror. She said yeah. And I was like, that makes sense. I mean, someone telling you they took out a piece of your body on a on a typo. That's horrifying, really is. And so I've done lots of work with those kinds of things as well. But I also hold the belief that really, we can work through anything that we Anything that the that the world hands us, right? Like we can we can work it through, we can figure it out. But but the, the grief that comes with that, in some cases is is worse than what we realize. So the grief for me was it took me that long to grieve, who I used to be and come into acceptance of, okay, I'm not the p90x person anymore. That's not who I am. But letting go of like, it was a huge part of my personality. I'm strong. I'm strong, I'm strong in a lot of ways. And I'm strong physically it was. So it was such an important part of how I defined myself that I that that time when I was angry and frustrated, and not, you know, angry with the fact that my body wouldn't do what it was doing it. That's grief. That was grief, I wasn't moving through the   Michael Hingson  55:50 grief. And now you have, yeah,   Lisa Wilson  55:53 I have come to accept it, it's still there are moments when it frustrates me or I get angry with myself because I haven't paid close enough attention. And I've gone back to the, you know, the carbs and the things that that don't make me feel good. But they're, they're more fleeting moments now than the overarching, you know, kind of life view all the time.   Michael Hingson  56:12 And what do you do as a leadership coach, so now you're doing that as work and you obviously get hired by companies and teams and people and so on?   Lisa Wilson  56:23 I do. So the premise that I started with this is, and strangely, I had hoped that it would have gotten better now, and I think it has in some companies, but not all, what we do is in a company, we take the best, whatever. So if it's counselors, we take the best counselor, and we make them the executive director, if it's, you know, mechanics, we take the best mechanics, we make them the lead hand, and then the supervisor and then the manager. So whatever the role is, we just take the best of that, and we put them into the leadership role. And that's not really the best way to choose it. Just because they're really good at the role does not mean they'll be able to come up with the skills to be a leader, the skills to be a leader, very different. And so the reason I do what I do is that while some companies are good at sending you on training, what happens when you go on training, and I have tons of examples of this, there's behind me, I have just binders and binders. And that's like the cold version of all the training I've done. But what a company will do is they'll say, Okay, we're gonna send you to leadership training. But that leadership training is four days on one aspect of leadership. And so you, you go, and you go away for four days. And then you come back and your email is full, and everything is full, and you don't have time to integrate the learning. So it's there, but you like to come, you come back, and you put the binder for the shelf and see you later. So So I started, I have a course that I created that goes over, I generally do it over eight weeks, so that people have the time to integrate it. So we meet for an hour a week. And that's it. We I teach a lesson, they go practice it, and then we coach on it. And then when I'm working with leaders, it's more about okay, what is it that you need right now, we'll work through what that is. And then we'll and then you can go and basically practice it we'll work through because we like I said, we just throw leaders into the role, and they might get the training eventually. But it's slowly but surely, and they get it and the binder goes straight up on the shelf, because they don't have time to integrate it.   Michael Hingson  58:23 And sometimes, and sometimes we're lucky and the people we throw into those roles can do it because they're very intelligent people. But all too often they can't, because they don't have the training. And it's not really their style.   Lisa Wilson  58:40 And its end it is our goal. And I recognize this too, because I was there in the HR roles, we think, Okay, we're gonna put that person in, but it's okay, it's good. They've got Lisa, she's in the HR managers role, she can check in on them. But then life hits the fan, and I don't have time as the HR manager to go and support that person, nor does their manager right. Like they want the the heart is there to do it. They just they can't,   Michael Hingson  59:04 which is why what you do is so important today.   Lisa Wilson  59:07 Yeah, yeah. So I can step in from the outside. I'm that person that's there. You know, I'm not the the HR manager who's trying to to, you know, balance everything else that's going on in the company and coach this person, I come in from the outside, when work with the leader. And hopefully, like the goal is is that we then fast track that right? So instead of going to six or seven training courses, though, I still say go to the training courses and get a more in depth but it's now okay, what are you dealing with today? And how are we handling that and then working on giving them the foundations that they need so that when the next problem comes up, they're ready to handle that one too, or they at least know where to pull to make the decision.   59:50 If people want to learn more about you and reach out to you how can they do that?   Lisa Wilson  59:56 Probably best way is my website. It's LMW. So Just my initials Lisa May Wilson coaching.ca.   1:00:04 So LMW coaching.ca, you haven't even had a chance to talk about the fact that you're, you're in three books and you're writing your own book now?   Lisa Wilson  1:00:13 Yes, I am. Yeah. So the course I just briefly mentioned that where I take peo

She has held a Georgia Real Estate License since 2002 and has sold over 500 homes in the Atlanta market.  Lisa began her real estate career with The Mark Spain Team, where she became the firm's lead listing agent working with seniors downsizing and moving to Independent Living Communities. Today, she continues her personal approach to the senior market as an independent agent with PalmerHouseProperties.  She understands from personal experience the overwhelming responsibility of moving a parent or loved one. When her father passed away unexpectedly, she was faced with relocating her mother to Georgia from out of state, selling a home, sorting through a household full of furnishings, then finding and preparing a place for her mom. Sherri Selman Sherri Selman's career is a testament to her love of people. After retiring from a 30-year career as a flight attendant with Delta Airlines, where she developed abundant experience caring for and serving the public, Sherri became a distributor for RelivInternational, a food science company. A keen interest in health and nutrition helped her advance to become a RelivAmbassador in 2010. Sherri conducted many seminars and training programs, impacting the lives of hundreds of clients through better health and quality of life. Her life was thrown into chaos in 2014 when Sherri's husband, Mark, suffered a massive stroke. The diagnosis that Mark was totally disabled and would need intense care and rehab was devastating to them both. The challenges were overwhelming, but Sherri was determined to develop a plan to handicap their home and find qualified caregivers and therapists so she could bring her husband home to recover. During a visit to Atlanta in 2015, Sherri's father suffered a debilitating stroke in her home. She had to find full-time care for him in Alpharetta while liquidating her parents' home and its contents in Missouri, where the family had lived for over 45 years.

You might wonder how a typo can lead to having half your thyroid removed unnecessarily….you'll have to tune in to hear Lisa Wilson's story, which is almost unbelievable except that it really happened to her. Then we discuss her long recovery, navigating mainstream medicine, and finding her way to Naturopathy and intuitive healing resources in order to really advance her healing. It's been 7 years, and Lisa is still healing, but has come so far, and is doing much better thankfully.  When our body is out of balance it sends us messages to get us to change something, so we can come back into balance, but that is so much harder to do when you've had ½ your thyroid surgically removed, and yet, it can still be done with the support of holistic health practitioners.  About the Guest: In 2014 after the blessing of a layoff allowed her to start her own business she had a surgery (by mistake) that left her feeling an exhaustion best explained by calling it "Cellular tired". It's a tired feeling that is right in your core, your body won't move, and your brain can't focus. Making it very difficult to stay in a good mental state. Lisa has shared her story in several books, and while it's not the focus of her business it does inform everything she does. Still not fully back to her "old" self Lisa has made many improvements in her health by seeking alternative health solutions.  Lisa Wilson has taken her success as a Human Resources leader in large corporations and is bringing this same opportunity to small to medium-sized companies. Offering training and coaching before and during those particularly sticky situations. Lisa is a Leadership/Corporate Coach, Certified Human Resources Leader, and a trained Mediator. With an HR career spanning 15 years, her drive had her in a manager's role 5 years into her career. She is an active volunteer with Toastmasters and the Human Resources professionals Association.
