Making a Difference Through Media Synopsis: On this compelling episode of Conversations that Make a Difference, host Teresa Velardi welcomes three dynamic women who are harnessing the power of media to inspire social change: Andi Buerger, Cassandra Tindal, and Danielle Bisutti. Andi Buerger unveils the moving stories and powerful advocacy within her forthcoming book, "Voices Against Trafficking," highlighting the urgent fight against human trafficking and how storytelling can drive awareness and action. Cassandra Tindal, founder and editor of Womenz Straight Talk Magazine, discusses her mission to uplift women's voices, address real-world issues, and foster meaningful dialogue through her influential publication. Actress and singer Danielle Bisutti shares her passion for using the arts to make an impact—donating a heartfelt song to the Voices Against Trafficking album and using her creative platforms to amplify important causes. Together, these changemakers explore how diverse media—books, magazines, and music—serve as transformative tools for advocacy, education, and hope. Their candid conversation, guided by Teresa Velardi, inspires viewers to use their own unique voices and creative outlets to make a difference in their communities and beyond. Guests: Andi Buerger, Cassandra Tindal and Danielle Bisutti Bio: Andi Buerger, JD is an international speaker, author, and advocate for victims of human trafficking & exploitation.  Andi herself was a victim of child sex trafficking and unspeakable abuses by family members for 17 years. She founded Beulah's Place, which provided temporary shelter services to at-risk, unsheltered teens for 14 years.  300+ youth were successfully rescued and assisted, earning national recognition. Andi later founded Voices Against Trafficking(VAT) to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves — the voiceless victims of human trafficking and exploitation. VAT advocates for the protection of every human's rights regardless of race, gender, culture, or socio-economic status.  Voices Against Trafficking-The Strength of Many Voices Speaking As One, gives a portion of proceeds from each sale to survivors of child abuse and trafficking, as does Andi's first book,  A Fragile Thread of Hope - One Survivor's Quest to Rescue. Andi launched Voices Of Courage magazine in 2023.  It is distributed internationally and accepted into the U.S. Library of Congress. It honors everyday heroes who selflessly fight to protect human rights. These champions come from all walks of life to change communities and the world for the better. A television series by the same title debuts in 2025. Website: www.voicesagainsttrafficking.com Bio: Cassandra Tindal is the Founder, Visionary, and CEO of IMAG Media Inc., and the creator of Womenz Straight Talk®. Driven by an unshakable belief in the power of women's voices and the need for meaningful discourse, Cassandra Tindal didn't just build a media company—she ignited a movement. As the founder of IMAG Media Inc. and the force behind Womenz Straight Talk, Cassandra's vision was clear: to create a multimedia platform where women and marginalized communities could speak boldly, be heard globally, and drive real-world impact on the issues that matter most. Cassandra's passion for storytelling isn't about headlines—it's about humanity. She built Womenz Straight Talk as a hybrid of award-winning journalism, documentary filmmaking, and advocacy. Her mission? To challenge narratives, elevate underrepresented perspectives, and spark conversations that lead to action—whether in business, politics, culture, or social justice. At the heart of every culture, in every corner of the world, lies a shared human truth: we are wired for stories. From ancient oral traditions to today's digital narratives, storytelling is the bridge that connects us—transcending language, politics, and geography. Cassandra Tindal and Womenz Straight Talk harness this power, using media and entertainment not just to inform, but to unite, provoke, and inspire action on the issues that define our time. Website: https://womenzstraighttalk.net Bio: Danielle Bisutti is an Emmy Award-winning and BAFTA-nominated actress, writer, producer, director, and singer-songwriter with an illustrious 25-year career in the Entertainment Industry. Born and raised in Los Angeles, Danielle is renowned for her dynamic versatility across film, television, video games, and music. Danielle received a BAFTA nomination for her captivating performance as the Norse Goddess “Freya” in Sony PlayStation's critically acclaimed and top-grossing video game, God of War. She is also celebrated for her LA-area Emmy Award win, recognizing her outstanding hosting work in Street Music Los Angeles (2002). Her notable film and television credits include unforgettable roles such as The Mother of Death in Sony Pictures' cult horror hit Insidious: Chapter 2, Barb in Universal's Curse of Chucky, the enigmatic Ms. Grey in Lifetime's Nanny Killer, Professor Linda in NBC's Parks & Recreation, Dana Gallagher in Shonda Rhimes' For the People, and as the powerful witch Hexela, a series regular in Paramount's Dwight in Shining Armor. Danielle's diverse portfolio also features guest spots and recurring roles in Matador (Robert Rodriguez's El Rey Network), Last Man Standing, CSI: Miami, Without a Trace, Raising the Bar, and The O.C. Danielle graduated Magna Cum Laude from California State University, Fullerton, earning her Bachelor of Arts with a double emphasis in Acting and Musical Theatre. During her collegiate years, she garnered multiple Irene Ryan Best Actress Award nominations and was the national runner-up at The Lincoln Center Theatre in NYC. Further honing her artistic craft, Danielle studied producing, directing, and screenwriting at The Hollywood Film Institute with Dov Simens, along with advanced coursework at ScreenwritingU and The Writer's Store's Screenwriter University. Her acting education continued with renowned mentors including Eric Kline at Film Actor's Workshop, Larry Moss, Lesly Kahn, Shari Shaw Studios, and the Upright Citizens Brigade for improv. With her passion for storytelling and her dedication to the arts, Danielle Bisutti continues to be a transformative force in every medium she explores.

A significant portion of the work that we do for clients entails financial modelling to help understand what is possible. Frequently, we arrive at the conclusion that the person's long term outlook is very secure, and indeed they likely have wealth in excess of requirements. Most commonly in this circumstance, people start to think about early inheritances, and perhaps spending a little bit more on lifestyle. But another path to be pursued, particularly for those without children, is to think about how you might support causes that you are passionate about. Charitable giving not only has a profound impact on society but also brings a deep sense of personal fulfillment to those who give. Our role as financial planners is to ensure that your charitable giving is done in a way that maximises its impact, considering elements such as tax efficiency, and long term sustainability.

In this episode, hosts Dr. Abby Eblen from Nashville Fertility Center, Dr. Susan Hudson from Texas Fertility Center, and Dr. Carrie Bedient from the Fertility Center of Las Vegas speak with Richard Kellner, founder of the Polycystic Kidney Disease-Free Alliance, and Natasha Rogina, the organization's chief spokesperson. Together, they discuss polycystic kidney disease (PKD) and how pre-implantation genetic testing-monogenic (PGT-M) can help families prevent passing this genetic condition to their children. Natasha, who has PKD herself, shares her personal decision to pursue IVF with PGT-M to ensure her children would not inherit the disease. PKD is a progressive condition that typically leads to kidney failure by midlife, often requiring dialysis or a transplant. Because many insurers do not cover genetic testing, the PKD-Free Alliance offers grants to help families access PGT-M to prevent passing the trait to their children. The PKD-Free Alliance's goal is to raise awareness and let couples know this option exists. This insightful conversation explores genetic inheritance, reproductive choices, and the future of PKD prevention, offering hope to families facing this challenging condition.

Send us a textTom Mohr was struck by lightning and it changed everything. From that moment of literal shock came a spiritual awakening that would transform not just his own life, but the lives of countless business leaders he would go on to mentor and guide.This conversation delves deep into Tom's remarkable journey from newspaper executive to digital media president to startup founder, revealing how each professional step prepared him to coach CEOs with extraordinary effectiveness. With five business books to his name, Tom brings profound insights about leadership and organizational growth that would be valuable on their own—but his story offers something even more powerful.What makes this episode truly special is Tom's vulnerability in sharing his spiritual journey. After losing his mother to suicide at age eight, he rejected faith entirely until life-altering events set him on a new path. Now, as he prepares for his Difference Makers Retreat in Plymouth, Minnesota, Tom articulates a vision where faith calls us both inward toward personal growth and outward toward meaningful service.The most inspiring moment comes when Tom addresses the common feelings of unworthiness and incapability that hold many back from making a difference. "Never underestimate the power of a committed person," he encourages, sharing stories of ordinary people who've created extraordinary change. His powerful statement that "God does incredible things with broken tools" serves as both comfort and call to action for listeners questioning their own potential impact.Whether you're struggling to find purpose, looking to integrate faith with leadership, or simply searching for inspiration to make a difference in your corner of the world, Tom's wisdom will leave you believing in possibilities you hadn't previously imagined.

Welcome back to the PowerHouse Feng Shui Podcast! I'm your host, Patricia Lohan, and today, we're diving deep into what it truly means to feel fulfilled, to make a difference, and to do something worthwhile with your talents. So many of us long for a career or life path that feels aligned, purposeful, and impactful—but sometimes, we struggle to see our own gifts or how we can contribute in a meaningful way. If that sounds like you, then this episode is just what you need. I believe that Feng Shui isn't just about your home—it's about how you live your life, how you flow with the universe, and how you embrace both the highs and the lows with gratitude. Our journey here on Earth is about learning, growing, and evolving, and sometimes, the challenges we face are exactly what shape us into who we're meant to be. In this episode, I'm sharing a powerful practice that changed my life—an affirmation that helped me shift from uncertainty to clarity, from struggle to success. No matter where you are right now, you are making a difference just by being here. Sometimes, all it takes is a new perspective to see the impact you already have. Whether you're searching for your purpose or looking to align with your ideal career, I'll guide you through simple yet profound mindset shifts to help you step into your power. Get ready to start seeing yourself—and your potential—in a whole new light! Key Takeaways:  Every obstacle you face is an opportunity for growth. The struggles and setbacks are actually guiding you toward becoming the person you're meant to be. The principles of Feng Shui help create harmony not just in your physical space, but also in your mindset, career, and relationships. Aligning with this flow opens up new opportunities. Even if you don't see it yet, your presence, actions, and energy impact the world around you. The more you align with your true self, the greater your influence will be.
