In this episode of The Motivatarian Exchange, I'm joined by Porsha Chalmers - the artist, healer, and visionary behind The Silver Bohemian. Porsha's story begins in a small rural town in Georgia, where she grew up as the oldest of four, daughter to farmers, and learned to create anything with her hands from a young age. After high school, she enlisted in the Marine Corps and served six years, a season that strengthened her courage and shaped the resilience she carries into every part of her life. It was there she met her husband, began building a family, and set the foundation for her journey of service and creativity. Her life has been a tapestry of joy, loss, and renewal, raising her son Matthew (her proudest accomplishment), caregiving for Brian through his battle with ALS, and finding love again with her husband Jim. These experiences now fuel her work as an artist and healer, where she blends sound therapy, restorative yoga, and creative expression to guide others toward wholeness. Today, Porsha is stepping fully into her calling as a guide and leader: Curator for The Turquoise Iris Journal International best-selling co-author Marine Corps Veteran Creator of soulful workshops, retreats, and art experiences In this conversation, Porsha opens up about: The resilience she carried from farm life and military service into her creative journey The healing practices and symbols — dragonflies, ginkgo leaves, and feathers — that anchor her work Why memory, presence, and everyday beauty are central to her art and her life Her upcoming retreat, Soul Map: The Art of Release (October 23–26, 2025 at The Little Golden Fox in Madison, IN) Her upcoming book, Tattered and Mended: Soulful Stories of Life, Love, and Legacy (launching November 11, 2025) Fun facts about Porsha: she's happiest barefoot by a riverbank, creating in her studio, or grounding outdoors. She once worked as a published photographer covering stock cars and NHRA drag racing (and even got three tickets in one weekend for drag racing a Volkswagen!). She loves transforming unexpected objects like old quilts, spoons, and leather belts into wearable art and memory pieces. And always...music is the soundtrack of her life. Through her art, her healing practices, and her leadership, Porsha helps others honor memory, presence, and transformation. Her story is proof that beauty and meaning can be created even from life's hardest seasons. Connect with Porsha Chalmers:

Tom Ackerman talks with Tony Schumacher ahead of the NHRA Midwest Nationals at World Wide Technology Raceway in Madison, Illinois, September 26–28. Schumacher, the winningest driver in Top Fuel history, discusses the intensity of drag racing where cars push beyond 330 miles per hour and races are often decided by thousandths of a second. He shares insights on racing conditions, from clutch management to weather impacts, and highlights what makes the NHRA fan experience unique with close access to drivers and teams. Schumacher also reflects on competing with his current team and the excitement of racing near St. Louis.

In Hour 2, Tom Ackerman breaks down his Week 4 NFL picks with detailed predictions and spreads. NHRA legend Tony Schumacher joins to preview the Midwest Nationals at Worldwide Technology Raceway in Madison, Illinois, and share insights on racing conditions in Top Fuel drag racing.

Back in the silo after a week off. We do a quick wrap up on the action from Bristol we missed last week. Boy oh boy was Bristol a dandy of a race! NASCAR was up in New England over the weekend and put on a great truck race and Cup race from New Hampshire with Blaney getting the win. We make our picks for Kansas and preview all the action as the playoffs roll on.F1 had a wild qualifying session at Baku and the race resulted in a bit of a surprising podium. NHRA was in action from Charlotte at the ZMax 4 Wide Nationals. We've got all the news from the NHRA and the results here for you.  

Buckle up for a deep dive into the automotive industry's latest battle with tariffs that could reshape how we buy and maintain our vehicles. Automakers and suppliers have formally urged the Trump administration to reconsider unpredictable tariff expansions, warning that these policies make investing in America increasingly difficult. The financial impact? A potential $4,600 price increase per vehicle within three years, according to the Center for Automotive Research—a sobering prospect when average new car prices already hover around $50,000.The conversation takes a personal turn as we explore the emotional versus practical considerations of keeping older vehicles. One host shares the dilemma of his daughter's beloved 2007 Ford Focus with 185,000 miles—is the sentimental value worth the maintenance costs and logistics of storing it for occasional use? This sparks a broader discussion about how consumers might adapt to rising costs, including a potential revival of salvaging parts from junkyards as repair expenses climb due to tariff-affected components.Our Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid review showcases why this three-row SUV deserves attention despite its $52,610 starting price. With actual adults fitting comfortably in the third row (thanks to its six-inch length increase over the standard Highlander), impressive fuel economy averaging 29.7 mpg over 475 miles, and what we call "the best-looking front fascia" in Toyota's lineup, it delivers substantial value for families needing space without sacrificing efficiency. We also cover the latest automotive recalls, auction results from Hemmings, and an update on Tony Stewart's remarkable recovery after a 300+ mph NHRA crash.Ready to join the conversation?

For nearly five decades, the Force family has been the most prominent name on the drag strip in NHRA. But 2026, there will be a massive void. Two-time Top Fuel Champion Brittany Force recently announced she would be stepping away from the driver seat -- at least temporarily -- in anticipation of welcoming her first child into the world. The 39-year-old talks about the difficulty in breaking records this year, now having to step away to start a family. Here's nearly 10 minutes of honest and empowering conversation with one of motorsports' most badass women.

Alexis DeJoria started the NHRA Funny Car season in a brand-new environment with new people, resources, and cars around her. But as the NHRA Countdown has arrived, DeJoria explains how all the work has the JCM Racing team on the verge of something big; how scary it was to start over at this point in her career; seeing it all come together so quickly; how this compares to other changes in her career; what went into building the team chemistry away from the racetrack; what each side wants from the other; the amount of fun she's had this year; outlook on the Countdown and realistic expectations; having three straight races to start the postseason; having a four-wide race in the Countdown for the first time; chasing a championship before the end of her career; the evolution of the Funny Car class and competition; hopes to end the season.    Original music created by Tony Monge. Follow me here: https://linktr.ee/kellycrandall  PRE-ORDER: NASCAR Race Day Eats https://insighteditions.com/products/nascar-race-day-eats  Alexis DeJoria feature story: https://racer.com/2021/07/27/insight-dejorias-second-act
