Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Coylette James Here is a clear, polished summary and outline of the Dr. Coylette James interview with Rushion McDonald, based entirely on the transcript you provided. Summary of the Interview with Dr. Coylette James on Money Making Conversations Master Class Ffounder of a faith‑based nonprofit and creator of The Lioness Effect—discusses her mission to empower women to heal, lead, and monetize their purpose without compromising their values. She and host Rushion McDonald explore themes such as identity, healing from trauma, walking in authenticity, entrepreneurship, integrating faith into business, and redefining wealth. Dr. James emphasizes that women must first understand their identity and unique “superpower" before they can build meaningful businesses or confidently step into leadership. Drawing from her decades in corporate executive leadership and ministry, she explains how healing from past traumas, rejecting societal stereotypes, and valuing one’s own expertise are necessary steps toward long‑term success. She also breaks down practical strategies for clarifying value, avoiding under‑earning, building integrity‑driven wealth, and developing a legacy. Her life philosophy—“Don’t live your age, live your life”—shows up in her mindset, style, and discipline, as she approaches age 70 with energy, purpose, and intention. Purpose of the Interview The interview aims to: Introduce Dr. Coylette James' work and her framework, The Lioness Effect, which helps women transform purpose into profit. Share practical guidance on identity, leadership, faith‑based entrepreneurship, and building wealth with integrity. Encourage women to overcome limiting beliefs, value their expertise, and break free from societal or personal constraints. Inspire listeners with Dr. James’s personal philosophy on aging, growth, and living boldly. Key Takeaways 1. Identity Is the Foundation Women must first understand who they are to build authentic businesses. Uniqueness is a “superpower” and should not be traded for cultural expectations. 2. Healing Precedes Leadership Trauma—whether personal, societal, or generational—can limit confidence. “Hurt leaders will hurt people.” Women must heal to lead with clarity and compassion. 3. Authenticity Builds Trust and Value You are your greatest asset; your voice is your brand. Don’t shrink or dim your identity to fit an image or corporate mold. 4. Faith and Business Are Not Separate Dr. James teaches that faith should inform, not divide from, business practices. Integrity and values should guide branding, service, and pricing. 5. Stop Over‑Serving and Under‑Earning People often undervalue what they give because they haven’t valued it themselves. Women must attach a price to their expertise, time, and transformation they provide. 6. Quality Creates Wealth Wealth isn’t only money; it includes wisdom and legacy. Quality and excellence build strong brands and repeat customers. 7. Know Your Lane Talent alone doesn’t build wealth—business skills matter. Bring in help for areas outside your strengths (marketing, operations, finance). 8. Entrepreneurship Requires Wisdom & Prioritization Dr. James balanced a full‑time executive career with her nonprofit by: Allocating hours wisely Using time strategically Mentoring within her workplace Following passion while honoring responsibilities 9. Age Is Not a Limiter At nearly 70, she asserts: “Don’t live your age, live your life.” Reinvention is possible at any age. Notable Quotes Here are direct, impactful lines from the conversation: On Identity & Purpose “Your authenticity is your empowerment.” “We were created on purpose for a purpose.” “If you’re trying to be what culture says you are, you’ll miss who you are authentically.” On Superpower “You take the supernatural of God, put it on your natural, and you’re empowered by it.” On Healing & Leadership “Hurt leaders will hurt people.” “I can’t take you where I haven’t been.” On Value & Monetization “What would you buy from you?” “If you wouldn’t pay for what you're selling, why should someone else?” “People will pay for quality.” On Wealth & Legacy “Wealth is not always monetary. My biggest wealth is the legacy I’m leaving.” “Make sure you put the quality in before your name goes on it.” On Aging & Living Fully “Don’t live your age, live your life.” “I will never get old. I will get older.” “How important are you to you?” #SHMS #BEST #STRAW #AMISee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A conversation with keynote speaker, leadership trainer, and singer-songwriter, Rachel Druckenmiller. Essential listening for anyone ready to stop holding the best parts of themselves back. Some people find their way to a courageous pivot through careful planning. Others get there because life makes the decision for them. And then there's the kind of wisdom that only comes from having done both, and arriving somewhere you never could have mapped. Rachel Druckenmiller is the kind of guest who says things you'll be repeating to yourself for weeks. About what it means to say yes before you feel ready. About the difference between a life that looks successful and one that actually feels alive. About speaking your desires out loud, even the ones that seem too big, too unlikely, too far away. About how the things that fall apart are often quietly clearing the path to what's next. There is a particular kind of courage in letting yourself be seen doing the thing you love most. Rachel has had to find that courage more than once, in more than one arena. What she's discovered on the other side is nothing short of a blueprint for coming home to yourself.

David Ferrugio has been hosting Dead Talks Podcast for six years, built on a simple but radical premise: death is the one experience every single one of us shares, so why aren't we talking about it? What started as a way to process losing his father in the North Tower on September 11th, 2001 when David was twelve years old, has grown into one of the more remarkable shows in the grief space. Eclectic guests, real conversations, zero pretense. Sarah and Jane are big fans, and this episode felt like meeting an old friend. David talks about what compelled him to start the show, what hundreds of conversations about grief and loss have taught him, and why death remains so taboo when it's the most universal thing we've got. David, Jane and Sarah dig into the strange duality of grief: how 9/11 was simultaneously the most public and the most isolating event of his life, and how that contradiction is actually at the heart of what grief feels like for all of us. They also get into intuition, energy sovereignty, why men are so underrepresented in this space, and how Dead Talks has become a place where people feel safe. Key Takeaways: Grief is simultaneously the most universal human experience and the most isolating one. Building community around it,  even just a comments section, gives people permission to speak their truth. Men showing up to talk openly about grief is significant. It lets other men know that vulnerability is safe and it shifts the cultural conversation in a way that benefits all. Fear of death often comes down to fear of the unknown.  Trying to control the uncontrollable is exhausting and ultimately impossible. The better plan is learning to go for the ride. Direct Quotes: "It's the most universal experience, yet the most isolating experience at the same time. Just like life, it's a double-edged sword." — David Ferrugio "All people want is to be heard and validated. And if they're saying it here, they might feel somewhat safe in saying it — because this is what we're doing here." — David Ferrugio "My dream is for everybody who wants to, to just delight in the fact that they have access to energy, to spirit, to their intuition. It's not some weird, freaky thing." — Sarah   Dead Talks  – https://www.deadtalks.net/ Dead Talks YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCB_jnuH15XMk2Vx_7_-aIAw David's Book: You're Not Dead Yet - Pre-Order and Download Ch 1 Pre-Order on Bookshop Pre-Order on Barnes and Noble   Medium Curious –  https://www.mediumcurious.com Book a reading with Jane Morgan https://www.janemorganmedium.com/ Book a reading with Sarah Rathke https://www.sarahrathke.com/ Jane's Substack – https://janemorgan.substack.com Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/mediumcuriouspod/

Living Fully with CF: Christopher Cornejo's Journey from Diagnosis to Avatar This fast-moving and deeply engaging conversation features Christopher Cornejo, who brings a fresh and powerful voice to the cystic fibrosis community. Diagnosed with CF as an adult just three years ago, Christopher has quickly become an advocate, sharing his story on stage at a UCLA CF symposium and being honored by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation as one of Southern California's Finest. What makes Christopher's story especially compelling is his perspective, shaped not only by his diagnosis, but by his career in film, including his work as a technical director on Avatar 2 and 3. In this heartfelt interview, Christopher opens up about his late diagnosis, navigating medical challenges, and how openness, community, and resilience have shaped his journey. We talk about his later diagnosis, balancing his health and his demanding film career, the importance of community and support along with his mental health and resilience.    Like, subscribe, and comment on our podcasts!Please consider making a donation: https://thebonnellfoundation.org/donate/The Bonnell Foundation website:https://thebonnellfoundation.orgEmail us at: thebonnellfoundation@gmail.com Watch our podcasts on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@laurabonnell1136/featuredNew: Shop our merchandise! https://thebonnellfoundation.org/product-shop/Thanks to our sponsors:Vertex: https://www.vrtx.comViatris: https://www.viatris.com/enRead us on Substack: https://substack.com/@lstb?utm_campaign=profile&utm_medium=profile-pageWatch our trailer of Embracing Egypt: https://youtu.be/RYjlB25Cr9Y

What happens when you realize the life you built no longer feels aligned with who you truly are?In this inspiring episode of Reclaim Your Life, communication coach, keynote speaker, actress, and author Sabine Kvenberg shares how she stopped playing small, overcame fear and self-doubt, and completely transformed her life through courage, confidence, storytelling, and personal growth.After recognizing she could not spend decades living an unfulfilling life, Sabine left behind a corporate career in Germany and began a journey of reinvention — becoming a performer, entrepreneur, speaker, and mentor helping others reclaim their voice and step into their full potential.Together, we explore:• How to stop playing small• Building confidence and self-worth• Overcoming fear and self-doubt• Authentic communication and storytelling• The “Invisible Stage” behind confidence• Finding purpose after life transitions• Why preparation creates confidence• Personal growth, reinvention, and mindset shifts• The FEAR Flip Method for moving through fearOne of the most powerful insights from this conversation:Confidence is built long before anyone sees the result.This episode is especially meaningful for women navigating burnout, identity loss, emotional healing, divorce, career changes, or major life transitions.If you've ever wondered:“Is this really my life?”“What's next for me?”“How do I become more confident?”“How do I stop holding myself back?”…this conversation is for you.

What does it mean to truly live with intention? In this deeply moving episode of The Motivatarian Exchange, I sit down with Diana von Welanetz Wentworth—New York Times bestselling author, speaker, life coach, media personality, former celebrity chef, and co-founder of The Inside Edge, a transformational community that hosted voices like Louise Hay, Ram Dass, Jack Canfield, and Mark Victor Hansen. At 85 years old, Diana radiates wisdom, presence, creativity, and joy in a way that feels both grounding and expansive. She describes herself as someone who is not winding down, but "composing the most luminous chapter of all." And after this conversation… I believe you'll feel that too. Together, we talk about: ✨ Why listening may be one of the greatest forms of love ✨ Meditation, attention, and learning to quiet the noise ✨ Grief, resilience, and walking back into the light after loss ✨ Creativity, curiosity, and expecting magic always ✨ How to live a meaningful life at every age ✨ Trusting your inner voice and absorbing the beauty around you Diana also shares her newest endeavor, Your Life as a Work of Art, a beautiful Substack series exploring how we compose our days, curate meaning, and leave something lasting behind. This conversation is gentle, profound, and deeply nourishing for the soul. If you've been craving wisdom, peace, encouragement, or simply a reminder to slow down and truly live—this episode is for you.

Questions? Comments? Text Us!What happens when suffering enters a new season of life? How do we face aging, grief, limitation, and uncertainty without surrendering our sense of purpose?In the latest Jerry & Abigail: An Intimate Dialogue, the married philosophers return for another stimulating dialogue exploring suffering, aging, calling, and the search for meaning. Beginning with the Serenity Prayer and the Stoic distinction between what we can and cannot control, the conversation moves into deeper questions about suffering as a source of growth, the temptation to “give up” too early in life, and the challenge of remaining fully engaged with one's purpose.Abigail reflects on resisting cultural narratives of decline, particularly those imposed on women, while sharing her thoughts on aging, neuropathy, resilience, and refusing to “die before you're dead.” Jerry connects these reflections to themes from God: An Autobiography, including the idea that “suffering is the law of growth in the universe.”The discussion also explores antisemitism, historical responsibility, Aristotle's vision of human flourishing, the story of David and Goliath, and the question of what it means to live in alignment with one's deepest calling.This is a rich and personal conversation about suffering, purpose, spiritual courage, and remaining fully alive on the timeline of human history.Whether you are navigating grief, searching for meaning, or trying to discern what still has your name on it, Episode 284 offers a thoughtful and deeply human exploration of the courage required to keep living fully. Other Series:The podcast began with the Dramatic Adaptation of the book and now has several series:The Life Wisdom Project – Spiritual insights on living a wiser, more meaningful life.From God to Jerry to You – Divine messages and breakthroughs for seekers.Two Philosophers Wrestle With God – A dialogue on God, truth, and reason.Jerry & Abigail: An Intimate Dialogue – Love, faith, and divine presence in partnership.What's Your Spiritual Story – Real stories of people changed by encounters with God.What's On Our Mind – Reflections from Jerry and Scott on recent episodes.What's On Your Mind – Listener questions, divine answers, and open dialogue. Stay ConnectedShare: questions@godanautobiography.comGet the books: God: An Autobiography, Radically Personal, Confessions of a Young Philosopher, A Good Look at EvilShare Your Story | Site | Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | YouTube

Bill Perkins is a hedge fund manager, film producer, high-stakes poker player, and bestselling author of Die With Zero. Known for his unconventional philosophy on money and life, Bill challenges the traditional approach to saving and wealth-building by emphasizing fulfillment, intentional living, and maximizing life experiences. His perspective blends financial acumen with a deep focus on living a rich, meaningful life—not just accumulating wealth. On this episode we talk about: Bill's early journey from a struggling clerk to hedge fund manager The mindset shift that helped him believe wealth was possible Why money is a tool—not the end goal The concept of “memory dividends” and maximizing life experiences How to balance saving, investing, and actually enjoying your life Top 3 Takeaways Money is only valuable when it's used to create meaningful life experiences—don't confuse wealth accumulation with fulfillment. “Memory dividends” compound over time, making experiences often more valuable than delayed consumption. You should align your spending and saving with different life stages—what you value (and can physically enjoy) changes over time. Notable Quotes "The money is just a tool for the life that you want." "If you're not in the arena, you have no chance." "When's the party? What are you saving all this money for?"

Acts 19 shows us that God is not looking for spectators, He is forming a people who advance His Kingdom. You were not born again just to stand on the court. You were not empowered just to feel something. You were not established just to know more. You were called to be engaged — to live as ambassadors of the King wherever He has placed you. So now go as citizens of heaven, ambassadors of Christ,
as a people fully equipped to advance His Kingdom wherever God sends you.

So many of us arrive at midlife carrying parts of ourselves we've never quite made peace with. The shameful parts. The doubting parts. The ones we've spent years trying to fix, hide, or outrun. What if those parts aren't the problem — and accepting them is actually the key to feeling more free? That's the heart of my conversation this week with Dana Hilmer, coach, positive psychology practitioner, and founder of Wiser & Free. Dana brings a rare kind of honesty to this topic — not from a place of having it all figured out, but from genuinely doing the work herself. We talk about the two women who shaped her relationship with aging — her grandmother, who was "a basket of sunshine" right up to the end, and her mother, whose unlived life became Dana's most powerful lesson. We get into beliefs and how to change them, what your body has been trying to tell you, the difference between surrendering and giving up, and why gratitude sometimes needs a gentler on-ramp. Dana also shares something that stopped me in my tracks — the way she talks to her own chronic pain. It's one of the most radical acts of self-compassion I've heard on this show. And she closes with three words that I think a lot of us need to hear right now. Why not me?

Discipleship becomes real through our relationships, embodying truth in love, unity, and connection, with each part working together properly. We celebrate empowerment. We ask for empowerment. We receive empowerment. But then we do what Ephesians 4 calls us to do: we grow up. We get established. We learn truth. We learn love. We learn unity. We learn to function as part of the Body. And we become the kind of disciples who can carry the Kingdom mission for the long haul.

Empowerment is supernatural enablement. Believers who reject it often burn out because they try to play the Kingdom game without equipment. They love God and are sincere but lack power, and have conviction but no authority. God never intended His children to live that way. God is not the kind of Father who calls His children to play and then refuses to equip them. He empowers you. He supplies you with gifts. He equips you for the life you've been called to live.

In this episode, Jomon reflects on death, impermanence, and how mindfulness can deepen our appreciation of life. Drawing from experiences with wildland firefighters, Zen retreats, and the teachings of Frank Ostasewski, she explores how turning toward mortality and grief can cultivate presence, compassion, and wholehearted living.

Questions and Time Stamps: 1:15 In what way is it important for you not to take yourself too seriously? 5:39 When I am deeply concentrated, I sometimes lose awareness of my body. How can I best work with this 8:28 Would you recommend preparing for war or a breakdown of infrastructure? If so, what would you suggest doing? 12:22 Have you ever researched near-death experiences 14:09 Would you share your perspective on parenting 18:22 I once heard from someone working in hospice that life is never more vibrant than in places where people are dying. What has been your experience? 20:40 Have you ever had a supernatural experience? 22:03 My previous question referred to your experience accompanying others while they were dying. Could you speak more about that? 25:43 What can I do with this feeling of pain in my chest when facing disease, decay, death, and ultimately saying goodbye? 30:48 How do you work with feelings of resentment and cultivate compassion for those who cause suffering and destruction on a large scale? 35:37 In the Heart Sutra it states, "no suffering, no cause, and no end to suffering." Does this contradict the Four Noble Truths? 40:42 In your experience, is it easier to live your commitments openly as you grow older than it was when you were younger?

When I polled my Instagram community and asked what was holding women back from committing to sobriety the biggest answer I received was FOMO - fear of missing out. Today as we cover chapter 9 of my book The Sober Shift I want to shift this fear for you and ask you to ask yourself the question: what is alcohol making me miss out on? For me and so many women, the realities of what we lost to alcohol only became clear in sobriety. Trust me, there are incredible experiences on the other side. Community makes all the difference.

Healing From the Inside: How to Age Well With Purpose and Peace   "I went from this… healing from the outside… And it wasn't till I said enough of this… I decided it wasn't up to the doctors… it was up to me."  Susanne Eden   In Episode 481 of Richer Soul, Rocky Lalvani sits down with Susanne Eden, author of Healing from the Inside, Living Fully as You Age, for a candid, wide-ranging conversation on what it means to live fully in the last stage of life, not just survive it. Susanne shares that she's turned 87 and describes how lifelong learning, reflection, and purpose have shaped her approach to aging.   They explore what Susanne calls moving from "healing from the outside" (doctor-led, medication-first living) to "taking ownership", a shift that includes food, exercise, breath work, and changing the mind. Susanne also introduces the idea of a transformational journal, where the goal is "writing for understanding, not for communication," as a way to surface buried beliefs and experiences and reduce their grip on your life. Source   The episode also touches on money values shaped in childhood, the loss of "realness" when spending is just tapping a card, the difference between religion and what Susanne calls "secular/organic spirituality," and why purpose, especially after retirement, can't be outsourced.   7 Soul-Level Insights from Susanne Eden Early money lessons were learned through scarcity + work, starting at age 11. Susanne shares she got her first job at 11 (in a grocery store) and learned exactly what money could buy because she had to earn it and count it.  Tap/swipe spending weakens our emotional connection to money. Susanne describes how paying with plastic doesn't feel "real" the way cash did when you could physically see the pile go down.  Longevity isn't only lifespan, it's staying functional, engaged, and mentally clear. Susanne says she has physical issues affecting mobility, but feels her mind is "as sharp and as clear as it's ever been."  Lifelong learning is a practical strategy for staying vibrant. Susanne describes her "thirst to learn" as one of the best forces throughout her life, including career choices she made based on learning, not money.  "Taking ownership" is the turning point, health isn't only the doctor's job. Susanne describes getting fed up with medication-driven cycles and choosing personal responsibility.  Transformational journaling is about self-inquiry, not performance. Susanne frames journaling as a tool for understanding what you're carrying, uncovering beliefs, and putting words to long-buried experiences. Purpose is a two-sided coin: becoming your best self + leaving the world better. Susanne explains purpose as both inner development and outward contribution, often through small actions that lift others.    Why This Conversation Matters A lot of people think the "later years" are mainly about managing decline. Susanne challenges that framing and asks a sharper question: if modern longevity gives many of us decades after retirement, what does it look like to live that time with intention, through learning, reflection, self-inquiry, and purpose? She also gives language to a turning point many people feel but can't name: moving from "healing from the outside" to "taking ownership," including practical pillars (food, exercise, breath work, and changing the mind) and deeper internal work through transformational journaling.    Money Learning Susanne's money story starts with frugality, scarcity, and work and she describes how seeing cash physically build (and disappear) made money real. She also shares that money isn't her "driving force," pointing back to values shaped by family and lived experience.    Key Takeaway Your last stage of life doesn't have to be "autopilot." Susanne's message is that meaning, clarity, and purpose can be cultivated through ownership, reflection, and ongoing learning, no matter your age.    Guest Bio: Susanne Eden Dr. Susanne T. Eden spent her career providing leadership to educators across Canada as a teacher, author, consultant and staff developer. Among her achievements, she is a past President of the Canadian Association for Young Children and past Chair of the Board of Governors, Seneca College, Toronto Ontario. Now 87, she shares her personal story of healing and personal transformation in her book, Healing From the Inside: Living Fully as You Age  (Sept 13, 2025), inspiring others to approach the gift of aging with optimism and purpose.   Links Website: www.susanneeden.com  Book: Healing From the Inside: Living Fully as You Age: https://l.gourl.es/l/46600688dcc2280963ffbcba7d5893a8418a47b1?u=5002439  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/susanne.eden.3348  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/susanne-eden-2b02b5149/?originalSubdomain=ca   If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to start, start here: Take 10 minutes of stillness (breath work or reflection) and notice what your mind keeps looping on.  Try Susanne's journaling frame: write for understanding, not for communication, no "good writing," no performance.  Ask Susanne's retirement question: if you have decades ahead, what do you want that chapter to stand for?    #RicherSoul #LifeBeyondMoney #Longevity #AgingWithPurpose #TransformationalJournaling #HolisticHealth #LifelongLearning #Spirituality   Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@richersoul Richer Soul Life Beyond Money.

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Coylette James Here is a clear, polished summary and outline of the Dr. Coylette James interview with Rushion McDonald, based entirely on the transcript you provided. Summary of the Interview with Dr. Coylette James on Money Making Conversations Master Class Ffounder of a faith‑based nonprofit and creator of The Lioness Effect—discusses her mission to empower women to heal, lead, and monetize their purpose without compromising their values. She and host Rushion McDonald explore themes such as identity, healing from trauma, walking in authenticity, entrepreneurship, integrating faith into business, and redefining wealth. Dr. James emphasizes that women must first understand their identity and unique “superpower" before they can build meaningful businesses or confidently step into leadership. Drawing from her decades in corporate executive leadership and ministry, she explains how healing from past traumas, rejecting societal stereotypes, and valuing one’s own expertise are necessary steps toward long‑term success. She also breaks down practical strategies for clarifying value, avoiding under‑earning, building integrity‑driven wealth, and developing a legacy. Her life philosophy—“Don’t live your age, live your life”—shows up in her mindset, style, and discipline, as she approaches age 70 with energy, purpose, and intention. Purpose of the Interview The interview aims to: Introduce Dr. Coylette James' work and her framework, The Lioness Effect, which helps women transform purpose into profit. Share practical guidance on identity, leadership, faith‑based entrepreneurship, and building wealth with integrity. Encourage women to overcome limiting beliefs, value their expertise, and break free from societal or personal constraints. Inspire listeners with Dr. James’s personal philosophy on aging, growth, and living boldly. Key Takeaways 1. Identity Is the Foundation Women must first understand who they are to build authentic businesses. Uniqueness is a “superpower” and should not be traded for cultural expectations. 2. Healing Precedes Leadership Trauma—whether personal, societal, or generational—can limit confidence. “Hurt leaders will hurt people.” Women must heal to lead with clarity and compassion. 3. Authenticity Builds Trust and Value You are your greatest asset; your voice is your brand. Don’t shrink or dim your identity to fit an image or corporate mold. 4. Faith and Business Are Not Separate Dr. James teaches that faith should inform, not divide from, business practices. Integrity and values should guide branding, service, and pricing. 5. Stop Over‑Serving and Under‑Earning People often undervalue what they give because they haven’t valued it themselves. Women must attach a price to their expertise, time, and transformation they provide. 6. Quality Creates Wealth Wealth isn’t only money; it includes wisdom and legacy. Quality and excellence build strong brands and repeat customers. 7. Know Your Lane Talent alone doesn’t build wealth—business skills matter. Bring in help for areas outside your strengths (marketing, operations, finance). 8. Entrepreneurship Requires Wisdom & Prioritization Dr. James balanced a full‑time executive career with her nonprofit by: Allocating hours wisely Using time strategically Mentoring within her workplace Following passion while honoring responsibilities 9. Age Is Not a Limiter At nearly 70, she asserts: “Don’t live your age, live your life.” Reinvention is possible at any age. Notable Quotes Here are direct, impactful lines from the conversation: On Identity & Purpose “Your authenticity is your empowerment.” “We were created on purpose for a purpose.” “If you’re trying to be what culture says you are, you’ll miss who you are authentically.” On Superpower “You take the supernatural of God, put it on your natural, and you’re empowered by it.” On Healing & Leadership “Hurt leaders will hurt people.” “I can’t take you where I haven’t been.” On Value & Monetization “What would you buy from you?” “If you wouldn’t pay for what you're selling, why should someone else?” “People will pay for quality.” On Wealth & Legacy “Wealth is not always monetary. My biggest wealth is the legacy I’m leaving.” “Make sure you put the quality in before your name goes on it.” On Aging & Living Fully “Don’t live your age, live your life.” “I will never get old. I will get older.” “How important are you to you?” #SHMS #BEST #STRAWSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if burnout isn't a failure… but a signal?In this episode of The Jen Keller Show, Jen shares her personal experience with burnout—not from a place of collapse, but from clarity. This conversation is about learning to live a full, meaningful life without burning it all down.Jen opens up about loving her life and still feeling stretched, being deeply seen but not truly known, numbing through productivity and socially acceptable habits, and the health wake-up call that forced her to slow down. She explores nervous system regulation, the cost of carrying too much for too long, and why the search for the “next big thing” often pulls us further away from the rhythm we actually need.This episode is for high-capacity humans—men and women who lead, serve, care deeply, and want to grow without losing themselves along the way.If you've ever thought, “I just thought it would be better than this,” this episode is an invitation to pause, listen, and begin again.Because burnout isn't the end of the story.A life in bloom is still possible.In a world where being perfect seems to be the goal- - it's important that we know who's we are & who we are. We aren't called to be perfect - we are called to be better today than yesterday! - that's it. It doesn't have to be quantum leaps, in fact I believe that in the day to day -our little steps in the right directions! I am on a mission to help women become more of who they were created to be and less of who they were told to be. And, that takes intention, that takes action : My goal is to drop some wisdom, bring you resources and that takes community. The real unlock is the Inner Work, and that's what we do here!
