Most days of the week you will find Diane and Mike Wood inside their bake shop, Trolley Stop Bakery in Chesterfield. Located in a strip mall, you hear the old-fashioned ding of the bell when you walk in, and you're greeted by the delicious smell of cookies. Mike greets customers while Diane takes charge in the kitchen. The couple could be living the retired life, but instead, they're living out Diane's dream of an old-fashioned bakery. And it all started with a love of baking cookies. Now she shares that knowledge with other bakers who use the kitchen as a co-op. From macarons by The Tipsy Goat and gourmet nuts by Pete's Snack Shop, there's something for everyone's taste buds. Many local businesses have graduated to open their own shops; that's always been the dream for Mike and Diane. Open Tuesday – Sunday at 67 Forum Shopping Center, Chesterfield, Mo.

On April 11, 1986, there was a massive shootout between agents of the FBI and two dedicated, murderous, armed suspects.  The end result was two agents dead and several wounded.  This shootout changed the caliber choice for the FBI and numerous police agencies for many years and brought forward the classic topic of round “stopping power.”  Mike Wood, the resident Firearms Nation historian, goes in depth to how the shootout went down and as a bonus, we discuss his previous book on the California Highway Patrol Newhall CA shootout.  Mike writes for his own blog on both tactical history and revolvers.  In fact, he is known as the “Revolver Guy”. Topics you'll hear on the show: –Why gun manufacturers are putting optics on revolvers. –Did the CHP Officers pick up their empty shell casings and put them in their pockets during a gunfight? –How a strong mindset defeats any weapon or skill in a survival setting.

Host: Hilary StundaIn this episode, Hilary Stunda speaks with Dawn Prall, the creator of MyMacDLife Podcast and the founder of The SupportSight Foundation. The majority of Dawn's work has been in the health care and social services industries. In the last decade, she has become a champion of low vision patient education, raising awareness to fund MacD research. In this episode, she shares her story.Dawn Prall began working in the field of macular degeneration twelve years ago when she received an unexpected job offer from the founder of the Macular Vision Research Foundation, now known as The SupportSight Foundation. Initially, she knew little about macular degeneration; however, in the first year, she immersed fully in the role. Dawn says she had the benefit and privilege to learn from, and “geek out with” scientists and researchers at the foundation.Hilary asks Dawn about the inspiration for the structure of The SupportSight Foundation.Dawn traces her inspiration back to her first year, “geeking out” with the scientists and learning what an impact finding new treatments would have for millions of people. The SupportSight Foundation's national footprint allowed Dawn to travel around the country and meet with patients, and the families of patients who had lost their vision because of macular degeneration.As a disease specific charity, The SupportSight Foundation is solely focused on MacD. The work they do advances potential breakthroughs in medicine. Dawn explains the importance of the work she does for bettering people's everyday lives. While doctors do well to take care of a patient's eye health, TSSF and MMDL fill the gap of information that addresses things like going to work, family life, reading, and the normalcy of everyday hobbies. She acknowledges, when people lose their sight because of macular degeneration doing the things they love can be a challenge.MacD is not as widely discussed as something like diabetes, for example, despite it being a major disease impacting so many people. Dawn explains that it's about public health and the public's awareness. The public is beginning to know more now than they did before because research on MacD has progressed in the past 40 years. It was important for scientist to first understand the cellular makeup of macular degeneration before they could diagnose people.Next, Dawn explains MacD is a retina disease with two types, known as “Wet” and “Dry”. There are treatments currently available for “wet” MacD, called anti-VEGF injections. “Dry” macular degeneration is an area where more funding for research is needed because there are currently no treatment other than vitamins. She emphasizes, the foundation's aim is to help people learn about how to cope with MacD, and help people understand the research. All donations to The SupportSight Foundation goes towards the search for a cure.Following up on the topic of research and funding, Dawn shares how TSSF funds research projects by top scientists all over the world. She says, “Research is iterative, research makes medicine” and is not separated.Next, Dawn dives deeper into the science behind MacD. Because MacD is a retina disease, scientists and researchers explore how the retina functions within the macula of the eye to understand what causes the macular degeneration. Dawn goes on to explain, the disease gets its name from the process with which the cells in the macula of retina die, hence the name macular degeneration. Current research being done involves cellular regeneration.The macula is in the retina. The retina connects to the optic nerve and the optic nerve to the brain. And the retina's job is basically a camera. “So, you don't really see with your eyes you see with your brain.” Dawn acknowledges, for people listening, whether or not they understand that part, what matters to them is there is no cure; what matters to them is what to do in the meantime, which is what TSSF and MyMacDLife do.When asked if research for MacD has evolved over the years, Dawn responds saying, “Of course, the research is not static. A scientist's job is discovery. Their job is understanding how that retina works and why those cells are dying. The researchers and scientists need financial support to do that”. At The SupportSight Foundation, her staff and team of researchers, lead the way. Overall, TSSF has been successful in raising close to $30 million to fuel research and public education so everybody knows the disease.Hilary asks Dawn about her hope for a cure. Dawn expresses emphatically, she is not only hopeful, but optimistic. It's just a matter of time, or else I wouldn't be doing the work she does. She admits, she would love to work herself out of a job, because that means they have accomplished their goal. And at this moment, she adds, they are a lot closer than they've ever been. “Every time somebody discovers something, that moves that needle.”Dawn connects her passion for this cause to her values. In her upbringing, as a “sales brat” Dawn was accustomed to moving around often. Always the new girl in school, she learned the importance of building relationships and being approachable. That helps to create funding. She cites her Midwestern values as intrinsic and entrenched in who she is.“You have to believe in something and stand for something and my family values were more about making sure that there is a passion, there is something meaningful in your life. And then you just build your life around that.”Dawn expresses what an honor and a privilege it is to make a difference in people's lives. MyMacDLife Podcast has given The SupportSight Foundation a microphone, to bring people together, tell their stories, and create a community. It enables the foundation to do more in a powerful way.Hilary agrees, saying she finds the MMDL podcast gets rid of despair. She says, with the abundance of resources available, “patients can hope, at the end of the day, they're not as lost as they think they might be." Dawn says the podcast aligns with the personality and value of the foundation: intimate, relationships-centric, and warm-big.Dawn emphasizes that patient advocacy is key to her work. The power of advocacy comes from knowledge of the disease and sharing the experiences people go through losing their vision. First, sharing with their friends, family, and caregivers. Then, sharing it with the rest of the world.Dawn acknowledges, “This world is not set up for low vision.” She reflects on making brownies, the directions were printed was brown on brown. Initially, advocacy focused on awareness of MacD. Now, it's expanded to advocate for everyday accessibility on computers and assistive technology. There's a force behind advocacy when MyMacDLife gets everybody who's listening and everybody who's affected by it to join together.Dawn invites listeners to learn more at mymacdlife.org, donate to The SupportSight Foundation, share their story, and help build community.In the last segment, Dawn speaks with Mike Wood from Vispero. Mike shares information about the RUBY Family products by Freedom Scientific, a line of Assistive Technology. The RUBYs are a series of portable video magnifiers that come in multiple sizes that use a camera lens to enlarge and sharpen the image of any page of text. For example, when checking a price tag, or reading a menu. To learn more about the RUBY Family, go online to www.vispero.com or call their toll-free number, 1-800-444-4443. Mike lets listeners know you can go to freedomscientific.com to listen to an online webinar about how to use your Ruby video magnifiers.Dawn ends the episode emphasizing that MyMacDLife is a resource above all, dedicated to supporting patient education.  Recommended Resources- http://www.supportsight.org/- http://www.mymacdlife.org/- https://www.vispero.com/- https://www.freedomscientific.com/- https://www.freedomscientific.com/products/lowvision/rubyproductfamily/- https://www.enhancedvision.com/- https://us.optelec.com/- https://www.healthyvisionassociation.com/- https://www.novartis.com/- https://www.hinklestein.com/- https://www.maculardegeneration.net/- https://www.mymacularjournal.com/- https://www.facebook.com/groups/mymacularjournal/- https://www.health-union.com/Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/mymacdlife-macular-degeneration-podcast/donations

In this episode, Hilary Stunda speaks with Jamika Porter. Jamika shares her personal story, realizing as a child of 6 that she couldn't see as well as her peers, to adjusting to life as a school-aged young girl, to a college student and then graduate student, who received her Masters degree in communications. What she discovered along the way, after numerous doctors, was that the conditions she had ran in her family, which is interesting as RP is a rare genetic disorder, affecting only between 82,000 and 110,000 people in the United States. Her mother was one of nine children and four of her uncles also had some form of an eye condition as well as her grandfather and many of her cousins. Jamika was diagnosed when she was about 15 when she saw a retina specialist. Before, she just kept getting new eyeglasses with a new prescription every year, or every six months or so. When she was 30, she started to seek treatment on her own just outside of regular eyeglasses. Jamika says that growing up with relatives who also had eye conditions helped to prepare Jamika. Since her mother was almost totally blind, she learned how to do certain things that made life easier, like placing furniture in certain configurations. Jamika tells Hilary how difficult it was growing up with Stargardt's and RP and that she mainly kept it to herself as staying silent about the condition was easier than telling people what was wrong. An eye specialist told her when she was 15 that she would probably be blind by the time she was 40. The turning point was when, in her late 20s, she worked for a law firm that offered very good insurance. That's when she started going back to the eye doctor. After seeing a number of physicians, Jamika eventually found a doctor that treated her well and did not consider her a case study. Jamika explains that she is learning to accept the Assistive Technology around her. She says that she uses her Kindle to read ebooks, and a Ruby device for everyday use. She continues, saying that to get around she uses Lyft and Uber and relies on a few friends and a sister who will come and take her places. But mostly, she takes care of herself. What has served her the most is reaching out to friends for support when she comes up against people who don't understand what she has and what she is going through. Learning that “everybody has some story.” Jamika learned is that maternal grandfather probably had Macular Degeneration but considering he was born in 1890, no one knew. Recently Jamika had an aunt pass away who was 101. She recalls how she lived independently with her husband for years and that she managed because of the way she set up her house, the lighting and furniture and kitchen. She cooked and was able to take care of herself. Jamika hopes to live that way. In the final part of this episode founder and executive director of The Support Sight Foundation, Dawn Prall speaks with Mike Wood from Vispero for the Product Spotlight. For the past 15 years, Mike has been working with schools as well as with the senior market. Mike talks to Dawn about the Assistive Technology devices that Vispero makes for people who have low vision. Visperohas been around since 1975. The name is the combination of two Latin words, one being Visio and the other being Spiro. Visio means the vision, and Spiro means hope. Mike tells Dawn how this is appropriate as their mission is to provide hope, determination and independence through all of their different products, whether it be hardware or software that support those with low vision. Mike and Dawn talk about what some of the warning signs for those who think they might have low vision. Mike says it's often something that can't be corrected with lenses, glasses, or eye drops. If you have trouble reading even after you've had corrective lenses or have trouble recognizing faces or doing basic things around the house like cooking, sewing, fixing and repairing things. Or, if you start to notice that you might need more light, or are having a hard time matching colors of your clothing, feeling like the lights are dimmer in the room. Sometimes, if you're still driving, you start noticing the problem with traffic signs or reading the signs of stores, as you driving by. These are all signs that you may have low vision and might want to go and see a low vision specialist. Mike explains to Dawn that Vispero offers many different pieces of technology to help those with low vision get through the day. There's the handheld video magnifier, The Ruby, that is great for reading tags at the grocery store or menus at a restaurant. But, if you're at home, and you're reading the newspaper, you might want a desktop magnifier like the Optelec ClearView See. Dawn and Mike discuss some of the tools that people might benefit from when they have MacD: a handheld video magnifier, a handheld optical magnifier, a desktop video magnifier, or something that provides OCR capability which is optimal character recognition, which is basically scanning and reading so you can take text and then have it read back to you. There are also other tools out there - software-based tools for your computer. Mike tells Dawn that for those who need to magnify what's on their computer, or have the computer read things back to you, there is technology that can do that. All of these different products fall under different brands within the VISPERO company. There's Freedom Scientific, Enhanced Vision Optelec and the Paciello Group known as TPGI. Each one of these brands offer different products. Freedom Scientific, a computer software, is best known for JAWS ZoomText. They're also known for their world-renowned handheld video magnifier called The Ruby. The Ruby comes in a couple of different sizes and functionality. Some products also offer TTS - which is Text To Speech, which is like reading out loud. These products are good for helping people with low vision so they don't have to strain their eyes. This, as Dawn says, is important because it's important to remember that ‘You don't see with your eyes, you see with your brain.' Mike tells Dawn all one has to do to find the product differences, functionalities and price points is go to the Vispero site. From there, people can find what they need. For example, Mile says, Optelec is good if you need optical magnifiers, which are a glass lens-type of magnifier. It's usually where people start out using a 5x, 6x, or 7x optical magnifier. The newer ones even have LED lights in them. Mike explains that with optical magnifiers, the larger magnification you need, the smaller the lens gets. So if you have a 5x, it's a larger lens. But then if you get up to 10 and 12x, it becomes a much smaller lens. At that point, Mike tells people that's when you go over to those handheld video magnifiers until you graduate over to The Ruby. Wrapping up the episode, Dawn and Mike concur that it's all about helping people with low vision invest in devices that will help them. It's not about regaining your sight, but performing tasks better. You see better because you're using the device, and you're regaining independence. It's about developing and delivering innovative solutions that will enable individuals with low vision to reach their full potential. **** What We Discuss in this Episode …Most people think it's night blindness. I have trouble with shadows. Even if I'm outside and I walk under a platform and it's dark, it completely changes. It temporarily blinds me for a second. 5:46 …My mom was one of nine kids. My mom, two, three, and four, of my uncles all had some form of an eye condition. My grandfather also had an eye condition and many of my cousins. 7:01 …When I was probably about 30, I started to seek treatment on my own just outside of regular eyeglasses. I can feel changes in the way I saw things. 09:04 …I did just enough to get by. Because I never wanted to explain to anybody why I just let people assume that I was lazy or didn't care about school, which wasn't true at all. But it was easier than trying to explain to people what was wrong. …Some things just become a way of life, because like I said, my mother was almost totally blind. So, as far as household, I function as a person that couldn't see, because that's the way I was taught. Like furniture is placed in a certain way, you open up all the curtains. 10:53 …I'm now in my 40s. When I was about 28. I got a really good job. I worked for a law firm with excellent insurance. That's when I decided to go back to the eye doctor. 13:32 …I'll be honest, I'm still working on this technology part. Some things are difficult because I do get embarrassed when I'm in the store and I can't see a barcode and I have to take out the magnifier. I have an app on my phone… but it's embarrassing. So I faked my way through some things but I'm getting much better. 14:48 …I have two really large televisions. I have some friends that, to this day, do not realize there's anything wrong with me. Because to look at me you would never know. 15:00 …With the Stargardt's and then with the RP, it's more internal. You'll never be able to look at me and say that I can't see. …People can be cruel. So, I made the decision I would never have to depend on anyone at a very young age. Now that I think about it, I think I did suffer from some depression. And I still do sometimes. There are little things that I miss that I could do even just five years ago, but I have trouble doing now. So I just try to move on. 16:40 …I decided that for myself I wanted to finish my bachelor's degree. So I did. Shortly thereafter, I got a master's degree. Not for anyone else. But it's mine. I worked for it. I struggled for it. I had to study twice as long and twice as hard. But I graduated with a 3.9 grade average. I was like, ‘This is mine and no one can take it. 20:40 I am one of the only ones with Stargardt's because, through research, I found it skips a generation. And what my mother realized as she got older was that her maternal grandfather probably had Stargardt's but considering he was born in like, 1890, they didn't know and thought it was just bad eyes. 21:54 …Once I was old enough to understand that it was a genetic condition and not just something that I got when I was younger. The first doctor told me because I was probably staring at the sun. 22:38 …I needed to have answers for myself. And I'm like that with most things. You can't just tell me something and I believe you. I need to know. Talking to my mom and then talking to my dad, because I had a doctor who told me that my parents are probably related. That's how I got Stargardt's. That was a little traumatic. You just told me my parents were related. So that was another factor. 23:23 …Stargardt's is an adolescent version of macular degeneration. …I use a Kindle with very large font and contrast. I have since I've been working with Sage, I use the device, The Ruby, you can put it on and read it. 25:16 …I do Lyft and Uber a lot. I do have a couple of friends…but I don't really like to ask people unless I absolutely have to. I go out during the day, every week I go do my grocery shopping, I get on the bus. I don't take the subway anymore. I stopped within the past two to three years because it's really dark under there. If somebody approached me, I wouldn't be able to see them. …That's what made me stop riding. I tripped coming up the steps. …I want to be more of a mentor. A couple of years ago, I worked for a program and we worked with underserved and under-resourced students. I absolutely want to be able help them going forward. It can be economically, socially or because of a disability. I want to work with children to help them move forward. But I've also found that I like working with adults I can share with. I can answer questions. 30:37 …I have one cousin, and we discovered we see the same retina specialist. We both have given him permission to discuss this in the exam. 32:57 …Oh, I hope so. That will be great. It hasn't been very long since I've been here. Still a learning and training process. But I would love to be a resource for other people or just a sounding board. 34:28 …My mother was in her 30s when she was diagnosed with Stargardt's. She went through the same thing I did where they just kept changing their glasses. So you know, he'll make the comparison. And you know, it was like he personally called me when my genetic testing came back and they realized that I wouldn't go completely blind and I thought that was so sweet. It wasn't a nurse. It wasn't an email. I was like, this is this is really nice. 35:00 …I'm in good hands…When you get people that care and they state, I don't see the way that you see, but I want to help you, it makes a difference, as opposed to someone just saying we'll do this or do that. 39:17 …A few of the different things that I find are signs that you're starting to have low vision. Often, it's something that can't be corrected with lenses, whether it be contact lenses, glasses, something like eye drops. It might be difficulty reading a book, newspaper or magazine even after you've had corrective lenses. 40:00 … Finding that it's difficult to do basic things around the house like cooking, sewing, fixing and repairing things. 40:05 …Another key factor is if you start to notice that you might need more light, or you're having a hard time matching colors of your clothing, feeling like the lights are dimmer in the room. Then, if you're still driving, noticing traffic signs or reading the signs of stores, as you're driving by. These are all signs that you may have low vision and might want to go and see a low vision specialist. … It's not going to be a one tool fixes all types of situation when you have MACD. Many times people I'm working with that have MACD might have multiple different pieces of technology to get through the day. 41:28 …One of the best selling in the industry, The Ruby, is going to be really beneficial for reading the menu. But, if you're at home, and you're reading the newspaper, you might want a desktop magnifier like the Optelec ClearView See. 42:01 …Assistive Technology devices that are out there that VISPERO makes. This is the technology that, if you have low vision, you can do things like reading; tasks that you may not be able to do as well now that you have low vision. …Some of the tools that people might benefit from when they have MACD: a handheld video magnifier, a handheld optical magnifier, a desktop video magnifier, or something that provides OCR capability which is optimal character recognition, which is basically scanning and reading so you can take text and then have it read back to you. …When you have low vision, you need Assistive Technology. Under the VISPERO umbrella there are a couple of different brands. There's Freedom Scientific, Enhanced Vision Optelec and the Paciello Group known as TPGI. … Three of the key things that you should focus when you have low vision are going to be magnification. Often you need magnification support. Things need to be enlarged. Lighting, you often need more lighting, so it might be as simple as having a desk lamp… 44:48 …Or changing the light bulbs to be a different brightness and contrast. 45:00 …Text to speech? So TTS is basically the exact same thing. The product offers you text to speech using the character recognition technology. …The button placement might be in a different area, the handles shaped differently, you might have a touchscreen device instead of having tactile buttons. …The text to speech helps because it lets you sit back and have something else read the text to you. So you can close your eyes, relax, and listen to the text out loud. …Because with optical magnifiers, the stronger you get, the higher you need, the larger magnification that you need, the stronger the magnifier, the smaller the lens gets. So if you have a 5x, it's a larger lens. But then if you get up to 10 and 12x, it becomes a much smaller lens 50:00 …They're investing in devices that will help to perform tasks better. And then you do see better because you're using the device… ……and you're regaining independence. There are so many people that need something as simple as wanting to read the mail…on their own. 51:18 …Our key is to develop and deliver innovative solutions that will enable individuals that are low vision to reach their full potential. …We have people using these to play bingo, do crossword puzzles. I've met people that use them to knit.

In this episode host Hilary Stunda talks with international best selling author, speaker, and happiness coach Terri Lynn Murphy. Terri has written two books: Journey to My Soul Following Divine Navigation, 10 Minutes to a Happier You Start Your Day In a Positive Way and Co-Authored: The Wellness Universe Self-Care Guide 25 Tools for Happiness. The conversation starts with Hilary asking Terri how she stays positive amidst challenging times. Terri makes a point in saying that no matter what's happening in your life, make it a point to go deep into silence, meditation to find inner peace. As she says, “happiness: it's an inside job.” Terri stresses the importance of being aware of your thinking so you can manifest your best life, and how it's been scientifically proven that positive thinking creates a positive life. Terri shares that during an emotional crisis, she saw an energy emanating from her. She decided at that moment to devote her time on earth to getting as close as she could to this entity and began writing her first book. Terri mentions how creating word tracks and statements and repeating them creates new patterns of thought which lead to manifesting a new reality. She stresses the importance of creating this new mindset and then focusing on how you want your life to be. She shares favorite quote, “Your thoughts are energy, so think responsibly.” Terri says she has trained many people in the work place to do this and has seen positive results over and over again. She says the brain is like a hiking trail, it takes energy to create new paths. Hilary then asks Terri about her latest book, 10 Minutes To A Happier You. Terri tells that she had been nicknamed “Fortune Cookie” by a coworker due to her positive attitude, and she began a practice of sharing positive messages on Facebook every day. After hearing from people that claimed to not have time to meditate or center themselves, Terri decided that everybody has 10 minutes in their day, and chose that to be the message of her book. Hilary then asks about the Wellness Universe site. Terri shares that she met the woman who founded the site as they both had their own inspiration pages. Terri says that Wellness Universe is a place to go if you are struggling or if you are in need. There will always be someone on the wellness universe that can help you, from energy workers to therapists. The conversation circles back to how Terri got herself through a crisis in her life. Terri said she was distraught, but then the song “Staying Alive” by the Bee Gees played and she took it as a sign. In spite of being angry she knew this was her path and she asked God for help. She talks about how writing everything down in a journal helps. Terri says that her advice is to put all the negative in the journal and replace it with positive thoughts. She stresses how its scientifically proven that living in a happy state changes our brain functions. She says feeling like a victim doesn't serve anything. It's best to focus on where you want to see yourself in a better light, and to try to focus on feeling as good as you can.Then she and Hilary talk about how a happy perspective brings about synchronicity, and a state of flow where good things happen. In the next and final segment of this podcast, Dawn Prall speaks with Mike Wood from Vispero. Mike has been involved with Vispero for 15 years, and comes to it with a specialty in education. Dawn and Mike talk about the Assistive Technology devices that Vispero makes for people with low vision. They discuss what low vision means to the company and to the industry. Mike then tells Dawn about the origin of Vispero. The name is a combination of two Latin words, one being Visio, meaning vision, the other being Spero, meaning hope, which is the mission of the company. Vispero provides hope, determination and independence through their different products, whether it be hardware or software. They have been an industry leader since 1975. Mike talks about how to self-diagnose low vision. One of the signs of low vision is finding it difficult to do basic things like cooking or repairing things. Or, if you notice you need more light. He then talks about two Assistive Technology devices Vispero makes. One is a handheld video magnifier, which is one of the best-selling in the industry, called The Ruby. The Ruby, he says, is a great choice if you're reading off a menu. However, if you're at home and reading a newspaper, you might want a desktop magnifier like the Optelec Clear View. Mike talks about the various tools that people might benefit from with MacD such as a handheld video magnifier, a handheld optical magnifier, desktop video magnifier, or something that provides OCR capability, which is optimal character recognition, which is basically scanning and reading. This feature takes text, and then has it read back. Mike also mentions the key things to focus on when you have low vision are going to be magnification and how these handheld video magnifiers offer all those benefits. Dawn makes the point that that 'we don't see with our eyes, we see with our brain.' Dawn asks Mike about the differences between all the tools offered and Mike says the best place to learn more is on the Vispero website (vispero.com) where people can see exactly what they can get for their needs. The Assistive Technology tools are an investment in independence. Investing in devices that will help people perform tasks better. Dawn closes the segment by saying how Vispero is an industry leader in low vision Assistive Technology devices. Vispero is developing innovative solutions that will help people with low vision reach their full potential. What We Discuss in this Episode 02:17 “…Happiness is a choice. It's an inside job. And no matter what's going on in the world around us, we can find peace if we go deep enough into the silence. Meditation has been a great, great tool for me over my lifetime.” 03:13 “…My best advice would be to become aware of what you're thinking, because most of the time, most of us are just reacting to what's going on in the world, not realizing that we can generate our own feelings. …But you need to start becoming aware of what you're thinking and if your thoughts are supporting the life you want. It's been scientifically proven that when your mind is in positive state, you get better results.” 06:06 “…I'm going to devote my time on earth to getting as close to this entity as I can. And through years of meditation, I came through that cathartic release, which led to this experience. And I'm telling you, this experience changed me forever. Because we live in this human body. So many people are just unaware of the spiritual world. It's really hard and difficult to be happy. If you're not feeding all three parts of your being, right mind, body and soul.” 07:17 “…Your thoughts are energy. So think responsibly. We don't realize that the thoughts that we repeat over and over again, create our reality. So create a word track for your life…" 08:26 “…And another thing I've learned over time is, instead of saying I'm angry, or I'm happy, I feel happy. Use the word feeling because it's, it's more freeing. When you say I am angry, you're like, hung on to it and anchored to it. But when you say I feel angry, oh, well, I have the power to change my feelings.” 09:15 “…Focus on what you want your future life to be. It takes work. It's not easy. It's not easy.” 10:15 “Well, I've trained a lot of people. I try to help them create word tracks when we're in training……You read them over and over again until you finally create the energy and start believing. Once you have the confidence and the belief, it just starts to happen. I see it all the time with people.” 11:16 “…Our brain is just like a trail on a hiking trail. You use the same path over and over again, if you start a new path, it's tough. You have to cut through it and cut through it. But once it's created, your brain will go that way.” 13:01 “…There's somebody on the wellness universe that can help you. There are energy workers. There are all kinds of therapists, life coaches. Things just become much easier. When you don't battle it in your mind. You know, the best benefit I think I've received from meditating is just singularity of thought. There's not all the static in there anymore. And it just creates a flow.” 14:21 “…I went through like a year and a half period of what I just call waiting for death. Because the decision I made during divorce, which caused me to live separated from my children, was a guided decision. I knew it was just totally guided and I was angry at God.” 17:36 “…Well, the truth is, again, science is proven. When you live in a happy state, a peaceful state, any type of positivity, your brain functions better. And we're magnets. The better you feel, the better things you're going to attract.” 18:40 “…We can fill ourselves with fear and feel like a victim. But that's not going to serve you. Put the thought of where you want to see yourself in a better light. Just feel as good as you can. I know it's not easy…but you will benefit from it. You truly will.” 22:01 “…Vispero, which is spelled V I S P E R O is actually the combination of two Latin words, one being Visio. The other being Spero. Visio means the vision. And Spero means hope…Our mission is to provide hope, determination and independence through all of our different products, whether it be hardware or software that support those that are low vision.” 23:38 “…A few of the different things that I find are signs are you're finding it difficult to do basic things around the house, like cooking, sewing, or fixing and repairing things. Now another key factor is if you start to notice that you might need more light.” 24:08 “…One of the best selling in the industry, the Ruby is going to be really beneficial to maybe read the menu. But if you're at home, and you're maybe reading the newspaper, you might want a desktop magnifier like the Optelec Clear View. See, that's going to be more of a stationary device that you bring the materials to, as opposed to bring the device to the materials.” 25:19 “…Some of the tools that people might benefit from when they have MacD are a handheld video magnifier, a handheld optical magnifier, desktop video magnifier, or something that provides OCR capability, which is optimal character recognition, which is basically scanning and reading. So you can take text, and then have it read back to you. All of these different products fall under different brands within Vispero company.” 26:46 “…So The Ruby would fall in a handheld video magnifier category. These are electronic… Oftentimes, you need magnification support… Oftentimes you need more lighting. So it might be as simple as having a desk lamp, or changing the light bulbs to a different brightness and contrast. And these handheld video magnifiers offer all of those benefits.” 29:23 “…We are investing in devices that that will help them. We always say this, it's not to regain your sight, but to perform tasks better. Then you do see better because you're using the device.” Recommended Resources https://amdcentral.org/ https://www.evokekyne.com/ https://www.brightfocus.org/ http://www.mdsupport.org/ https://preventblindness.org/ https://www.macular.org/ http://www.supportsight.org/ http://www.mymacdlife.org/ https://vispero.com/mds * Note: All listed transcript timings and wording are approximations.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/mymacdlife-macular-degeneration-podcast/donations
