Kat asks Amy what she learned this last year of her life since she's now 43 years old (as of this week) and she also asks about a fun memory from the year (since it was a rough year around the sun with the divorce and all!) Have you ever rubbed your eyelids?? Because that's a thing you'll learn about in this episode...and it's something Amy enjoys very much! Quote: “Some people talk to you in ‘their free time'... and some people ‘free their time' to talk to you. Make sure you know the difference.” -Someone's Grandpa They also talk about 4 gut instincts we should not ignore: 1) A Sense That You Are Not Well: For example, Amy felt "off" so she got blood work and turns out she has very low testosterone (like very, very low!!) and that is causing her to feel very spacey. She's getting some cream to run on the back of her leg, so we shall see if that helps. 2) Excitement About An Opportunity: Excitement is your intuition's way of saying that something about that opportunity is resonating with your soul (so don't let your logical mind talk you out of something you feel is aligned for you!!) 3) A Feeling Of Danger: When you feel an immense sense of nervousness, take it seriously (better to be safe than sorry!) 4) Being Drawn To Someone: People are in our life for a reason, a season or a lifetime! (IYKYK: Amy is going to frame this for Kat's office because Kat doesn't think it's that deep, but Amy does haha) HOSTS: Amy Brown // RadioAmy.com // @RadioAmy Kat Defatta // @Kat.Defatta // @YouNeedTherapyPodcast // YouNeedTherapyPodcast.com Call us: 877-207-2077 Email: 4ThingsWithAmyBrown@gmail.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Burned Bridges Lead To Better Roads: Shari Sanahi is the author of the book, “Burned Bridges Leads To Better Roads: A Survivor's Method To Risk-Taking Through Radical Change.” Shari is a first-generation Guyanese-American author born in Atlantic City, New Jersey, and currently resides in Los Angeles, California. She has spent most of her life teaching others about Guyana's location and culture to those who cross her path. Guyana, a country located in South America, is comprised of 6 different races: Indigenous, East Indian, African, Portuguese, European and Chinese. She was published in the zine from New Zealand titled “Phantom Billstickers, which can be purchased on Amazon. Quote: “Some people choose to suffer for greatness, and some choose to suffer because they feel greatness escapes them.” SPECIAL Timing Note: We originally recorded this episode in October 2021. Thank you in advance as we catch up on episode releases since our host, Scott Mulvaney, started returning from his time off to finish writing and self-publishing his inspirational first book, "So You Want To Be A Hotshot" on Amazon. Shari's Bio Continued: Shari obtained a B.A. in Biology from Stockton University in 2011. In 2008, she took on an immense love for boxing and padwork training. In 2012, Shari began her training at Commando Krav Maga and Diamond Mixed Martial Arts Academy, a Muay Thai, Krav Maga, and Jiu-Jitsu studio located in Philadelphia. When she moved to Los Angeles, she later became a boxing instructor at Title Boxing. Before taking an initial cross country road trip which she completed in 3 days, Shari obtained her 200-hour Power Yoga certification from Grace and Glory Yoga, located in New Jersey, in 2017. After getting an initial taste of Los Angeles, she fell so in-love with the city that she decided to take a one-way-flight with no set place to stay to truly find her way after taking a break for one month. This journey had to be undertaken to complete her first book, which would lay the groundwork and foundation she had been searching for all of her life. Trauma and a difficult upbringing created a pretty unsteady foundation. Her recently published book creates a road map that got her onto better roads, and she hopes to help people from all walks of life walk on better roads as a result of reading her book. Along with yoga and boxing, she was able to complete two 10-day Vipassana meditation retreats at S.N. Goenka's meditation center in Shelburne Falls, MA. These modalities helped her to understand the importance of discipline that helped to create this book, and also were modalities which helped her to heal emotionally and physically.

It's not some people call you got to be more great or, you're too black and white. It's don't throw the baby out with the bathwater, all these different things, but some people you have, there's a certain wiring for a reason. 23:00 - Oh, from the outside looking in, or I'm very much the same. I like real, because I've been through so much in my life. So what I like to hear those stories of like rags to riches or so for me, it's a viewer. I also like to know what made people tick, because how could you, how can I put this I myself, but I'm doing things I don't want to be upset about

Quote: “Some countries have only 1 psychiatrist per 1 million people! There are over 270 million people in developing countries with no mental health care.” Matthew Dickson There are many people out there who advocate for those with mental health issues, but not all of them lead by experience. On this episode of Authentic Living with Roxanne, we welcome Matthew Dickson who has suffered with his own mental health issues and now takes his lived experience to help those in developing countries receive the help that they so desperately need. Matthew gave us so much great information that we are splitting this into two episodes, if you missed Part I, CLICK HERE to listen. Matthew is a Mental Health Advocate who works to help people in impoverished countries with no mental health care. His heart goes out to people in developing or war-torn countries who experience not only the torment of mental illness but the traumas of poverty or the horrors of war as well. It's not fair. Some countries have only one psychiatrist per million people. They have no medications. No counselling. No support groups. Authentic Touch Points: One benefit of COVID. 1:00 How leaders can help their team. 4:00 Showing up & getting it done. 7:30 Structure is so important. 9:00 Finding mental health resources in developing countries. 12:00 Helping those who can't help themselves. 16:00 Creating healing connections around the world. 20:00 As someone who went through mental illness in one of the most advanced countries in the world, Matthew could not believe how painful mental illness is. Canada has some of the best mental health resources in the world. What some people go through in other countries is unthinkable. Matthew works to restore their hope, their dignity and help them to regain good mental health. He has successfully overcome schizophrenia, has bicycled across Canada, and has an engineering degree. He loves the outdoors, making people laugh, and dancing! As we move toward reopening workspaces and gathering again, I encourage leaders to reach out for guidance about developing an authentic and improved workplace for everyone with less conflict.

Many things can and will kill your motivation. Not just in writing, but throughout life in general. And when that happens, you might stop doing Your Thing, which leads to guilt which leads to Darkness Brain and less motivation and the vicious cycle is in full swing. So what do you do when you feel stuck? What do you need to pop you out of it? Jess talks about the persistence of famous names in the industry, Tracey talks about giving yourself grace and time, and Anne finds a reason to talk about BTS again (as well as other things). At the end, the group has an important announcement. QUOTE: “Some days are better, some days are worse. Look for the blessing instead of the curse. Be positive, stay strong, and get enough rest.

This will be a bite sized episode with the goal of setting an growth minded intention and focus, for the upcoming week. Each MINIsode will offer a quote that encapsulates the theme of the week. After the quote we will dive into a weekly focus. Something small that we can concentrate on for the following 7 days. As well as a physical activity tip and nutritional tip, that will assist us in working toward a more healthy and optimal way of living our own dream life. And each MINIsode will end with a recommendation for the week. This recommendation could be anything from a podcast episode to listen to, or a book to read, or even an article or paper, that I feel will help us better educate ourselves towards the overall focus of the week. If this is your first time listening to a MINIsode. The goal is to listen on Friday/Saturday or Sunday to be ready to start the challenges of the week on Monday. Listen to one MINIsode every week, and as that week finishes, move on to next weeks MINsode. You can start all the way over back at MINIsode #1 or join in with the team right now.Quote:“Some days are blessings, some days are worse. Look for the blessings and not the curse.

Shep Hyken sits down with Ty Collins. They discussed how to raise your prices without losing customers, why you should be transparent, and how to give customers the best experience possible. TOP TAKEAWAYS: Shep’s Opening Monologue:In Shep’s opening monologue he answers the question, what is the difference between a loyalty program and a marketing program?The Interview with Ty Collins:In July 2018, a 25% import tariff forced Rad Power Bikes to increase their prices. Because they created a unique experience and were transparent with their customers about the price increase, this did not affect sales.Rad Power Bikes decided to share their opinion about the trade tariffs publicly.

Jon Moore reporting! This week we begin with a post linking to the ABC’s Science Show from 3rd of June 2017. The segment is entitled: Analysing wastewater reveals population health. Not surprisingly, given the unfettered nature of chemical production from 1945 until the momentum of Silent Spring led to the establishment of environmental protection legislation across the nations outside of the Iron Curtain in the 1970s, many of these chemicals persist. Not just in the environment, that is waterways, soils and so on but also in newborns. Yes we are, in fact, part of the environment so that’s not as surprising as we might at first think. To quote from the segment summary: Quote: Some chemicals, produced for the manufacture of goods and services don’t readily break down in the environment. Some can persist for years, decades or longer. The pesticide DDT was banned in 1972 in the US, but can still be detected in the environment and in people. End Quote. These chemicals are very persistent. Back in day, when the land was being prepared for 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney, the site selected had issues. Yet Sydney 2000 was considered a very green games. A quote from “Sydney’s Toxic Green Games” suggests it started well behind scratch: Quote: The area has been home to a number of unpleasant industries since early in the century. Part of the site once housed the State Abattoirs (1907 to 1988) and the State Brickworks (1911 to 1988) which included a quarry for clay and shale to make bricks. The Navy's armaments depot is currently on the site but is likely to be relocated. In the mid-1980s when it became evident that the brickworks and the abattoirs were nearing the end of their operating lives, the area was designated for redevelopment. It is surrounded by chemical industries, a fuel terminal, a large petroleum products storage area, an oil refinery and a prison. Unoccupied parts of the site have also been subject to years of waste dumping. End Quote. The point I’m trying to make is we are all walking around to some lesser or greater extent on contaminated lands. There are clearly areas of concentration yet the segment from the Science Show points out DDT in newborns! Even if we manage to avoid a three degree rise in global temperatures, and in my darker moments, that seems unlikely, we still have this lingering contamination throughout the biosphere. And it’s not just industrial chemicals, antidepressants have been found in fish downstream from sewage works. I quote: Quote: The antidepressants were found in fish collected over 8 kilometers (approximately 5 miles) downstream of the location of the wastewater discharge. The scientists detected several commonly used antidepressants in water, streambed sediment, and the brain tissue of white suckers, a native fish species. Fish collected upstream from the wastewater discharge did not have antidepressants present in their brain tissues. End Quote So we are in varying degrees wading through a cocktail of carcinogenic and mind altering and who knows what other types of chemicals. Does these things bioaccumulate? In other words do they become more concentrated as we move up the food chain. Does a little antidepressant in fish ground up and fed to pigs which are then eaten by humans become a significant dose in our species. Given the horrors of factory farming, a little prozac might ease the suffering of pigs but do we want to be bathed in the stuff ourselves? I would like to have the ability to give consent before consuming antidepressants but I and you may have no choice. What are we to do? Let’s take a deep breath and review where we stand. Climate change appears to be accelerating, we are bathed in chemicals from the 1950s, antidepressants could be endemic in the biosphere, the politics of our times point to towards the greater possibility of nuclear war, industrial agriculture is creating antibiotic resistant pathogens and we have huge numbers of refugees on the move across the globe. What is it that connects all these? After many days of unpleasant intense and years of background consideration of these problems, the one thing which seems to connect all these issues is oil. The chemicals were created through the use of petrochemicals, climate change is clearly connected to fossil fuels, industrial agriculture is critically dependant upon oil and the refugee movements can be traced back to political decisions related to control of oil supplies. The threat of nuclear war does not seem to be directly attributable to oil but is just the icing on the cake. So, is there any hope? I believe so. Despite the US pulling out of the Paris agreement, despite the Australian government’s obsession with the Adani coal mine in the Galilee basin and all the vested interests in the fossil fuel world, price signals will, eventually trump rent seeking. Pun intended. A piece from Financial Post entitled: This year’s new global solar capacity on pace to potentially pass 2016 record due to lower costs is one of many posts I’ve added to the blog in the past three years. A quote from the Financial Post piece: Quote: New global solar capacity will continue to grow this year, after lower costs drove it to record levels in 2016, and could surpass 80 gigawatts (GW), Europe’s solar industry forecast on Tuesday. Solar photovoltaic (PV) module prices have fallen 80 per cent since 2009 as capacity has risen and technologies improved. And a record 76.6 GW of new solar capacity was installed and connected to the grid last year, 50 per cent up on 2015, solar power association SolarPower Europe said in a report. End Quote Soooooo, the price of solar PV continues to fall, the price of oil to produce is heading the other way, especially when we reach or reached peak oil. Add in wind, geothermal, wave and who knows what else and the end of the age of oil should be nigh. The researchers are doing what needs to be done, the public, when they can are being driven by price signals. Australia now has the highest level of rooftop solar PV in the world, makes sense on a sun drenched continent. Mega battery factories are coming on line so we can store the energy when the sun shines for when it doesn’t! What appears to be the one stumbling block is the huge amount of money thrown around by lobbyists for fossil fuels in the democratic system. Hammer your local representatives, annoy your governments, hassle your local councils, make waves, yell, kick and scream. The age of oil has got to end for the health, safety and future of a viable biosphere. A biosphere that can support life, that is not laced with carcinogenic man made chemicals, that is not drenched in antidepressants and that sustains all life within a climate range we have enjoyed for the holocene. It will take time for the CO2 concentrations to drop, it will take time to develop and research bacteria capable of converting the background chemical contamination to a more benign form but it can be done. That it can be done by removing money from politics hit me as so simple yet that does not mean, necessarily, that it will be easy but it can be done. Indeed it must me done. And on that happy note we will end this week’s episode. If you’ve liked what you heard, please tell everyone you know any way you can! I’d also really appreciate a review on iTunes.

On today’s episode of Happy Black Woman, Rosetta chats with an incredibly inspiring entrepreneur, Lucinda Cross. Lucinda has overcome tremendous odds to achieve a life of success and happiness doing what she loves: sharing a message of hope. Her mission is simple: to help those who are considered the best-kept secrets. Lucinda works with people who are “hidden gems” - people who hold back from sharing their gifts - so they can expose their missions and messages. Her talent for bringing out the best in others is clear and through her story, it’s obvious that her life experience has fed her desire to serve others. Authenticity has no competition. For Lucinda, the key to unlocking the potential of others is to help them overcome the mindset of comparison. She shares insight into her view that, if you are authentic, you have no competition. For Lucinda, it’s all about connecting with your true self, your true mission, and sharing that with the world. She works with clients through workshops, group coaching, speaking engagements, and more to help them understand that you don’t need permission to be who you are. Lucinda shares some tips and strategies that can help you get started on your journey to an authentic life, which includes identifying your gifts and “tooting your own horn”. There’s a fortune in your frustration. Lucinda discusses the years of frustration she felt when she spent time building the dreams of others, while ignoring her own. She shares the value in this frustration and how it served to help her find the courage to say yes to herself and her own dreams. For Lucinda, it was all about building credibility and establishing herself as a thought leader in the industry. She also offers insight into the value of looking at the giants of your industry, rather than your peers. For Lucinda, that meant studying greats like Tony Robbins and Les Brown and aiming to set herself apart from the rest in the same way. The role of a vision board in turning your life around. As Lucinda shares her story, she discusses how she went from saying yes to something she should have said no to, to serving 4 ½ years in a federal prison. It was during this time that she devoted herself to vision boards, which transformed her future and that of fellow inmates. For Lucinda, a vision board kept her hopes high while in prison and paved the way for future successes. Today, she shares her passion for vision boards with the world through workshops and coaching sessions to help women who are ready to bring their vision to life. Refusing to be a public success and a private failure. As she closes out her chat with Rosetta, Lucinda discusses what life looks like today - after working so hard to overcome the many obstacles she’s faced. Happiness didn’t come easy for her, but she fully believes the frustration made her the success she is today. Lucinda shares one of the most important lessons in her life today: realizing she needed help and asking for it. Hiring help, Lucinda says, truly saves the day for her. In closing, she shares her go-to quotes and a book that has inspired her on her journey. When it comes to inspiration and beating the odds, it’s hard to find someone better than Lucinda Cross.
