An empty chair is negative profit.You've got to put the right people in the right chairs.Coding appointments can show you which patients value your time and value what you do.Make the patient feel like you know them. Are you a transactional or relational practice?Train people that they can't cancel.Quotes:“Every cancellation that has ever happened in dentistry started at the chair. And what I mean by that is the value, the conversation, and we can't just pass the buck.Yes everybody has to work together; front and back. But all cancellations start at the chair. If you're looking to solve the root cause of the problem, then we have to start further back in the appointment, which is the conversation.” (5:28—5:53)“Research indications why patients cancel. Number one is they do forget…The second reason would be lack of perceived value by the patient. And sometimes by the practice. They feel like they're doing you a favor by canceling. You ever felt that?...Sometimes we give that perception to patients…Reason number four is something comes up that they would rather do. It becomes a value issue…Number five, they have an emotional barrier. That's very real. Some feel pain. Some are afraid they'll receive bad news…and I'm just going to put this off.

This is the story about how two women left a toxic workplace, launched a better publishing brand, and equipped people with the tools to tell their stories. Today's guest on The Business of You is Leslie “LAM” Miller, the Co-founder and CEO of Girl Friday Productions. GFP is a women-owned and led publishing company, offering indie and hybrid publishing focused on inclusivity and empowerment. In Girl Friday's nearly twenty years, LAM has focused on disrupting business as usual for both publishing processes and organizational leadership with a focus on empathy and radical transparency. The “Girl Friday experience” has kept clients coming back for almost two decades. It begins with a compassionate, curated team devoted to authors' publishing goals and culminates in a book they are elated to call their own. From book coaching to editorial to cover design to marketing strategy, the GFP publishing program produces books of distinction. LAM is passionate about excellent books–but she also emphasizes positive work culture. She and her Co-founder Ingrid Emerick launched GFP after leaving their previous publishing company, where time off was virtually nonexistent and work-life balance did not exist. As young moms, they fought to be able to do the work they loved, while spending time with their families. Now at GFP, they cultivate a culture that celebrates parenthood, individuality, hobbies and interests, and harmony with work. Being an author means that you're an entrepreneur LAM sees the same thing happen again and again in her years in publishing: People who passionately write books and promote them do really well.  However, she also sees individuals who write a book and spend no time promoting it–believing that a company can carry them towards the finish line. LAM reminds us that readers–much like clients–desire a strong connection with us and our brand in order to commit to our message.  While you can publish anything at any time, she serves a lighthearted and humorous reminder that not everything needs to be a book, and not everything will be a bestseller. It's okay to publish something just for your grandkids. And if you decide to tell a great big story to a large audience, make sure you promote it! Clarity attracts the right people, places, and things LAM is unapologetically herself, and she encourages you to be yourself too. She wears her emotions on her sleeve, and that's part of her personal brand.  In this episode, she encourages us to be who we are and live out our values. In our lives, and in our businesses, the right people will be attracted to us. The message at Girl Friday Productions is clear: They are a gender-inclusive, diverse, and anti-racist company. Because they are clear, loud and proud about their messaging, they attract clients that believe in the power of good. Everyone's story deserves to be told At Girl Friday Productions, everyone's story deserves to be told. LAM discusses troubling trends in publishing, and how essential it is that they disrupt the norm that primarily white women get a platform to tell their stories. Even in positions of power in publishing, the executive teams are mostly led by white men. Girl Friday Productions is a loud voice in opposition to the discrimination of the traditional publishing industry.  Now, LAM and the other staff at GFP are working behind the scenes to create exciting new offerings, empowering more diverse voices to tell their stories and reach new audiences. Enjoy this wonderful conversation with Leslie “LAM” Miller on The Business of You! Quotes “Every author is an entrepreneur. Every contract we have, we are teaching entrepreneurship.” “We were publishing all these books about feminism and motherhood. At the same time, I was having my first child and my business partner Ingrid was having her second. We had three weeks of maternity leave, typing over their heads and taking meetings. We asked to reduce our hours. The answer that came back was, we'll pay you less…but we'll reduce your hours and your workload. But it didn't change at all! It was so frustrating.” “You shouldn't have to choose between being the human that you are most of the time, and the person you are at work. I think you can be happier and it should be more sustainable.” “We scan the landscape and ask, how can we better allow people to share their stories? That's what we're really passionate about. We produce audiobooks for people now! We produce eBooks. We look for new marketing opportunities. We look at social media, and what it does for authors.” “Indie publishing, or self-publishing, used to be such a dirty word. But we built this incredible program. We aren't going to do the same work as a traditional publishing company - we do better work! We are so proud of these books. We take better care of you.” “If you want to publish a book so that your grandchild can have it, don't do any marketing. But if you want to sell copies, you absolutely need to have effective strategies.” “We give people a report that says, this is your ideal reader, where they're hanging out, and how to reach them.” “We don't work on content that doesn't help the world.” “We would love to pass on what we know, and equip more people to tell their stories.” “Everyone's stories deserve to be heard. And there are a lot of stories that are being kept out of the industry.” Links mentioned in this episode: Visit the website for Girl Friday Productions at www.girlfridayproductions.com  Follow Girl Friday Productions on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/girlfridayproductions/  Follow Girl Friday Productions on Facebook at  https://www.facebook.com/GirlFridayProductions Connect with LAM on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/leslielammiller/

No matter what stage of business ownership you are in, you need to have a business plan that you can actually follow. If you are unfamiliar with what makes having a business plan so vital for your success, this is the episode for you. Today, host May explains what a business plan is, why you need one, and how to create one that is simple and that can evolve, change, and grow alongside your business.   A business plan is like a GPS. It acts as a guide that you can follow to reach your goals. Since your goals are going to be ever changing and your plans will need to adjust depending on market conditions and personal growth evolution, you will need to revisit and revise your plan throughout the year. Don't worry about making it perfect, because it will always be changing and growing as your business does. A lot of entrepreneurs make the mistake of overcomplicating their business plan and making it too hard to stick with. Instead of writing a complicated twenty page plan, keep it simple. A successful business plan needs only a handful of key things; your vision, your mission, and the specific service you wish to provide, who will want and need that service, how to market do this group of people and how much to charge for your services.   One of the most exciting parts about having your own business is that you have the flexibility to tweak and change anything you want as you go. Instead of getting hung up on trying to have everything perfect right from the start, remember that you can adjust your plan whenever you want to. Start off with a simple, easy to follow plan and you will be on your way to achieving your goals.    Quotes • “Every single business, especially when they're starting their business, needs to have a business plan. A business plan is like a North Star. It's like your GPS. Your business plan is the GPS for your business.” (2:02 | May) • “The business plan should be very simple and easy to follow, and easy to create.” (4:17 | May) • “If you want to know the truth about owning a business, you're constantly flying the plane while tweaking your engine at the same time.” (5:36 | May) • “That's the beauty of owning your business, being a business owner that has the flexibility to twist and turn to make changes without going through all the bureaucracy. That's the fun of having a business that is constantly evolving.” (21:47 | May)   Links Connect with me at: may@events4anyone.com Website: www.mayyeosilvers.com.

Have you ever been in an accident where you thought you were going to die but miraculously you survived? Has this experience entirely changed your outlook on life?   In this week's episode, we are celebrating The End of C0V1D by re-releasing our top ten podcast episodes.  This episode features Dr. Carrie Madej, a scientist, clinician, and survivor.  Dr. Madej shares the remarkable story of her accident that has single-handedly catapulted her into a newly inspired purpose.  We hope you tune into this episode to understand the level of conviction and certainty that Dr. Madej had in her own ability to survive but also her ability to heal herself. Don't miss this exciting episode of the Future Generations Podcast with your host, Dr Stanton Hom.   If you would like to learn more about the body's miraculous self-healing abilities, we highly suggest you check out The End of C0V1D.  Click the link to sign up: https://theendofcovid.com/ref/352/    Quotes: “Every day, I was determined to get stronger. And it's the mental fortitude plus God and the prayers that did that.” - Dr Carrie Madej “You can't take anything away from me because I know who I am and what I am, no matter what happens. That is being free, then.”  - Dr Carrie Madej “Don't consider things as always spoon-feeding you. We're not supposed to be that way because we're created by his image. We're supposed to be embodying that, becoming owners, responsible and accountable and taking dominion over our world back that we gave up a long time ago.”  - Dr Carrie Madej   Key Takeaways: Realizing who and what we are and our capacity to overcome what is taking place in the world will allow us to understand that it's not all bad, and knowing that miracles have occurred will help your faith remain stronger. You would pray much harder, worship more, make more sacrifices, love more, accomplish more, and be more if you could spend two minutes in eternity, whether it was in hell or in heaven. This is because your eternity is real. This is our world, our kids, our planet, everything is ours. If we are aware of ourselves and what we are, we develop spiritually and return to our natural bodies.    Highlights/Timeline: [06:11] - A Miracle that happened to Dr Carrie [22:38] The Big Prayer Group for Dr Carrie [30:55] The power of touch and healing through words [38:42] Clinical expectations of recovery [53:17] What does the world look like that you're aiming to create?

Miracles should be an everyday common occurrence, and they can be when you believe they are possible.  The key is, knowing the power you hold within yourself.  

Key Takeaways: • When the body does not have enough energy to support daily physiological functions, this can trigger RED-S • RED-S causes health complications like hormone suppression, bone stress injuries, and digestive issues • RED-S is most commonly seen in female athletes, but is believed to be underreported in males. It is often made worse by disordered eating and is seen most in athletes engaging in endurance sports like running, antigravity sports like rock climbing, weight training, and sports that require a lean physique   You are likely familiar with the stress that athletes put their bodies under in order to excel at their sport. But what you may not know is that many athletes are at risk of developing low energy availability due to the activities involved and a culture that encourages disordered eating. In this episode, find out all about RED-S, Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport, from a true expert, Dr. Aubrey Armento, MD, a primary care sports medicine physician at Children's Hospital Colorado.   When the body doesn't have enough energy to function, it adapts by slowing down all of its physiological processes, such as digestion, heart rate, and temperature regulation. With female athletes, RED-S causes a dangerous disruption to hormones that can suppress the menstrual cycle and ultimately lead to loss of bone density. In addition to the energy expenditure required by more physically demanding sports, athletes tend to slip into patterns of disordered eating due to the culture around the sport itself. This can lead to nutrient deficiencies like anemia which can cause the body to further shut down.    With the help of a sports dietician and knowledgeable sports medicine physician, RED-S is reversible. If you are an athlete and begin to notice any signs of RED-S, seek help from a specialist sooner rather than later.    Quotes • “Every day you need a certain amount of energy just to live and breathe and go to work or school or just live your daily life… then you're left without enough energy to support body functioning.” (5:40-6:15 | Dr. Aubrey)  • “If somebody has low energy availability, that ultimately leads to hormonal suppression or abnormal hormone cycling.” (7:46-7:55 | Dr. Aubrey) • “One of the ways the body adapts to energy deficiencies is that it basically slows the gut down.” (20:58-21:04 | Dr. Aubrey) • “The nature of the activity itself, and then the nature of the culture around the sport, tends to promote behaviors that put people more at risk.” (30:10-30:23 | Dr. Aubrey) • “I always encourage people, if they think something's not right, or they're recognizing that they're struggling with any of these things that we've talked about, it can never hurt to see somebody who specializes in this.” (53:31-53:45 | Dr. Aubrey) Links   Flux Footwear https://snwbl.io/flux-footwear/andrewfix 10% off   Xero Shoes: 10% off https://xeroshoes.com/go/drandrewfix   drinklmnt.com/physioroom - free variety pack with purchase.   RAD Roller - $5 off http://radroller.refr.cc/drandrewfix   Revogreen https://revogreen.co/drandrewfix   Connect with Dr. Aubrey Armento: https://fastr.stanford.edu/ https://www.childrenscolorado.org/doctors-and-departments/physicians/a/aubrey-armento/ Connect with Physio Room:  Website | ​​https://physioroomco.com/  Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/physioroomco/ Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/physioroomco Andrew's Personal Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/drandrewfix/ Andrew's Personal Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/andrew.fix.9/   Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

Revving Up Your Systems Matt and Garrett take as deep a dive as possible given the time available into the spectrum that exists within systems and to offer some examples of what either end of these spectrums can look like. Delving into such areas as handwritten notes, voicemails, and real estate reviews, they emphasize the importance of understanding the different levels at which these systems can be utilized. They also note that, by focusing on the intention behind each system, individuals can build genuine connections with clients and move beyond treating them as business tactics. Matt and Garrett also explore the importance of self-care and mindset in achieving success in business, and discuss the power of affirmations as well as the impact of a positive mindset on achieving unexpected positive outcomes. The value of coaching and community in helping individuals identify and overcome obstacles and the importance of taking care of one's mental and physical health are also explored.

The debate over what factors affect people's behavior and personality traits between nature and nurture is fierce. An individual's genetic makeup, which determines their personality and physical characteristics, is completely dependent on nature. Contrarily, nurture is influenced by the environmental elements to which a person is exposed, and which ultimately shape their personality. People are affected by both nature and nurture to some level since they are exposed to both in one way or another, which determines how they grow. Drew Weatherhead imparts his life's lessons, wisdom, and counsel to aspiring leaders. Life is a tapestry woven by the decisions we make. You must focus on making yourself better, not on thinking that you are better. Tune in as young leaders ask questions about life, personal growth, and more! Quotes: “Every single one of us has certain predispositions to our personality. It could be nature, or it could be nurture or even a blending of the two.” – Drew Weatherhead "I discovered that you have the ability to break yourself out of there. You have to take control of the reins of your own life.” – Drew Weatherhead “It's easier to say yes but the struggle won't be easier.” – Drew Weatherhead Takeaways: Because our experiences and environment shape how we perceive the world, we can alter how we see things by altering the experiences that make up our first impressions. You have an endless capacity to accomplish the impossible if you only strive, work hard, take charge of your future, stay loyal to yourself, and believe it is achievable. Never take the seemingly simple route out of a situation. After all, easy life is rarely meaningful, and meaningful life is rarely easy. Conclusion: Nobody in the world has the same personality as another. Even triplets or twins who are raised in the same environment have very diverse personalities. Also, a person's personality is a pattern of attributes along with the influence of the many people that became a part of your life no matter how small, rather than just a collection of their many traits. This personality characteristics aid in the prediction and justification of that person's actions. Despite these many influences, it is imperative that you have complete control over your own life. After all, we are completely responsible for everything that we do and will do.

Are the highest paying jobs automatically the best leads for you? While many people would jump to the conclusion that yes, they are, this may not always be true. In today's episode, host May Yeo Silvers takes the time to bust this common myth and leave you with a surprising piece of advice that will help you run your business more successfully.   On the front end, a large and expensive event may sound exciting to you. And if you feel you can do the job and you like the client enough to take the time to put it all together, it may be the right decision for you to take that lead. However, as May becomes a more seasoned business owner, she also understands alternative ways she can work to make her time worth the money. Before accepting any job, you must thoroughly evaluate your leads. High paying jobs often require a lot more of your time and attention, therefore, your hourly rate is likely to decrease. To get a better idea of whether or not this job is worth accepting, you must understand your opportunity cost. How much money are you going to make on this event? Do you have the time in your schedule to forgo other events that may fulfill your hourly rate? To maximize her hourly rate and hit her income goals, May takes a variety of events that range in price and time spent working.    Are the highest paying jobs the best leads? The truth is, the answer is never cut and dry. That's why it is important for you to spend time evaluating your hourly rate and accessing your opportunity costs so that you can make the best decision for yourself and your business financially.  Quotes • “Every time I take on a big client that pays me between $30,000-$50,000, I know I'm going to have to devote at least 120 to 150 hours of my time to do that job.” (03:39-04:01 | May) • “As I grow my business, I am becoming more savvy with numbers. And also understanding how best to use my time to gain the most traction financially.” (04:31-04:45 | May) • “When you are evaluating your leads, it's not just about the numbers. There are other things involved.” (04:51-04:57 | May) • “Instead of taking on only big jobs, my business model is a combination of big jobs, medium size jobs, and small jobs. Because always taking on the big job doesn't mean that I'm going to make my income goal.” (14:39-14:54 | May)   Links Connect with me at: may@events4anyone.com Website: events4anyone.com LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/mayyeosilvers Facebook: www.facebook.com/mayyeosilvers IG: www.instagram.com/mayyeosilvers TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mayyeosilvers  FB private group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/events4anyone   Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

Are you investing in your business and not seeing it pay off? Whether you're investing in lead services, an assistant, or a coaching program, you should be able to get a return on all of your business investments. If you feel like the processes aren't working out, it could be because of you. In today's episode, host May Yeo Silvers discusses how to ensure that you recoup on all of your business investments now and in the future.    One of the biggest mistakes that new business owners make is not giving their investment enough time to pay off. While it can be frustrating to spend money you don't necessarily have in the beginning, you have to be patient and give whatever strategy you invested in time to start making you money. Ultimately, if an investment strategy isn't working in your favor, you need to take a step back and evaluate your process. For example, if you aren't closing leads, you need to ask yourself if you are following the right steps to qualify your leads? Are you following up? Are you even targeting the right leads for you?    But at the end of the day, recouping the money you spent on your investments comes down to you. You need to be investing in the right things, with the right strategies, and have a good mindset about what you are doing. Join the conversation to hear examples of successful investing strategies and how you can tweak your actions so that you can win back your investments tenfold.  Quotes • “Every single investment strategy out there, they all work. If it is not working for you, the common denominator is you.” (01:44-01:55 | May) • “One of the common mistakes that people often make is they don't give the investment enough time to evaluate whether or not it's working.” (06:33-06:46 |  May) • “Your return on investment is not how many leads you get. It's how many leads you close and the dollar amount that you close them for.” (10:00-10:12 | May) • “Another rule of thumb to remember is  the cheaper your service, the more you need to sell in order to recoup your investment.” (15:41-15:48 | May) • “Every time you do any form of investment, you need to have an idea of how many outreaches and conversations you need to have to make it a conversion.” (20:30-20:44 | May)   Links Connect with me at: may@events4anyone.com Website: events4anyone.com LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/mayyeosilvers Facebook: www.facebook.com/mayyeosilvers IG: www.instagram.com/mayyeosilvers TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mayyeosilvers  FB private group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/events4anyone   Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

“If the goal is for this to be your full-time income, plus potentially the opportunity for you to scale and eventually move away from delivering the service yourself, it requires you to have an in-depth knowledge of what is needed to sustain your life and lifestyle and grow the kind of business that you want to grow,” explains Abagail Pumphrey. Abagail and Emylee are the co-founders and co-CEOs of Boss Project and the hosts of the chart-topping podcast The Strategy Hour. Together they have helped over 10,000 small business owners grow profitable and sustainable businesses. Today, Abagail and Emylee share their tips for scaling a service-based business. A service-based business model is one of the most profitable businesses because there is a lot less upfront cost to get started. This model is very accessible to begin with, but owners still need to be very clear on their long-term goals and have strong boundaries in place in order to scale successfully. One common mistake is undercharging for services and essentially doing a bunch of work for free. It's important to have a good understanding of the numbers and set appropriate rates if the goal is to generate a full-time income. In order to successfully run and scale a service-based business, you have to be really clear on what your long-term goals are, not only for the business itself but also for your personal life. Build your business around your desired life, rather than trying to fit in your life around the business. Quotes“Every time I prioritize holding my boundaries, protecting my creative space, honoring how I want to show up for work and be a leader, and work with my team, every time I prioritize space there and openness and creativeness, we win.” (3:51-4:09 | Emylee)“If the goal is for this to be your full-time income, plus potentially the opportunity for you to scale and eventually move away from delivering the service yourself, it requires you to have a in-depth knowledge of what is needed to sustain your life and lifestyle and grow the kind of business that you want to grow.” (10:31-10:53 | Abagail)“Service-based business owners don't think of how many consequences come from what you're priced at.” (12:15-12:20 | Emylee)“Just cause you're making money doesn't mean you're not working for free.” (14:05-14:07 | Emylee) “If I am really aware of what I want my personal life to look like, then I can design a business around my life.” (25:16-25:24 | Abagail)LinksConnect with Welcome to ElomaInstagram: @welcometoelomaWebsite: WelcometoEloma.comWeekly Email Newsletter: bit.ly/RIXEmail Connect with Abagail Pumphrey & Emylee Williams:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bossproject/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/thinkcreativecollective/Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/bossprojecthq/_saved/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/bossprojectchannelWebsite: https://bossproject.comPodcast:

The biggest problem the children of Israel had in the wilderness was not their lack of faith that God could do great things. It was their inability to trust that He would take care of their personal needs. A recent experience exposed this problem in my own life, and I think Christians should face this reality. With all our faith in the greatness of God, there is still something in us that does not trust that He will meet our needs. This new year let's see that change and learn to trust Him with all our hearts.   Show Notes: During the Feast of Tabernacles this year two recent messages became very meaningful for me personally. These messages are a blog titled “Do You Trust Him?” and a study guide titled “Do You Trust God's Motivation?” Both messages are available on this website, and I encourage you to read them. As I was reading these messages, something happened that made Tabernacles come alive to me. My refrigerator broke at a crucial time and there seemed to be no way to fix it. “What does a broken refrigerator have to do with Tabernacles?” you might ask.   At Tabernacles we remember how the children of Israel saw God do many mighty things as He delivered them out of Egypt. Once they were in the wilderness, however, they had a big problem with God. And that problem was not their lack of faith in His power, it was their inability to trust that He would care for their simple daily needs. A broken refrigerator made me face my own need to trust God on a personal level.   As Christians, as believers in Yeshua (Jesus), we have seen God's great salvation and deliverance in our lives. We have faith that God is able to do all things, yet there is still something deep in our spirits that does not trust Him to take care of the little things in our lives. This year I want God to take out of me every inability to trust Him even in the simplest ways.   Key Verses:   Deuteronomy 1:26–35. “But for all this, you did not trust the Lord your God.” Numbers 14:11–12. “How long will they not believe in Me, despite all the signs which I have performed?” Psalm 95:7–11. “Your fathers tested Me, they tried Me, though they had seen My work.” Hebrews 3:6–11. “your fathers tried Me by testing Me, and saw My works for forty years.” Hebrews 4:1–11. “Therefore let us be diligent to enter that rest.” Proverbs 3:5–6. “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding.” Isaiah 26:3-4. “Trust in the Lord forever, for in God the Lord, we have an everlasting Rock.” Matthew 7:24. “Everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock.” Philippians 4:19–20. “My God will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.”   Quotes:   “Every time we fail by not trusting, I think we invoke the Lord's anger towards us as Israel did.” “We still exist in the place where we need to enter God's rest, and we enter God's rest through our ability to trust in Him with all of our hearts.” “I know we have faith in the Lord for the big things. But going forward I want to trust Him that He supplies all of my needs in everything that I face, that it's He who leads my path.”   Takeaways:   He provides the fire by night to keep us warm. He provides the cloud by day. He provides the water, the food, the covering, the shelter, the defense—all that we need. But it is born out of our ability to trust Him. This year, in all the difficulties we are beginning to face in the world, we need a rock to build our house upon. We need not to be moved by the things that will come against us. And that is born out of trust in the Lord. Lord, Your Word states that we are to trust You with all our hearts and not lean on our own understanding. Let this be the focal point of our lives this year. We trust You to provide it and create it within us.

But then, it's really committing to, ‘Is this what you want to do?' That's the first question you've got to ask yourself, ‘Is this really what you want to do?'

252 Dealing With Trauma Through Stories Sharing our stories and listening to the stories others tell us is the most important thing we can do in our interpersonal relationships, showing them that you understand and you care is a gift that only you can give.   In this episode Sarah Elkins and her friend Lee Keylock discuss the importance of sharing our stories and carrying the stories of those we love with us so that we may heal and grow, as well as the importance of inspiring others to tell their own stories and pursue the path in life that will bring them joy and peace. Highlights Caring for another's story makes you care about yours. Keep the memories of those who mattered to you alive through stories. When you or another say something it can change everything. We use stories to heal. Quotes “Every experience you have leads you to where you're at. If you took any one of those experiences, stories, and songs out of the equation, it changes, something has to change. So it would change the trajectory of where you are now.”   “To hold somebody's story like that and be responsible for it is a huge undertaking, you can't minimalize that.” About Lee Keylock Lee Keylock is Director of Global Programs at Narrative 4 and oversees the coordination and administration of all aspects of N4's ongoing programmatic development. Originally from Britain, Lee immigrated to the United States in 1989 and taught English at Newtown High School in Connecticut for thirteen years.

And make sure you check out his website Narrative 4! About Sarah Elkins  "Uncovering the right stories for the right audiences so executives, leaders, public speakers, and job seekers can clearly and actively demonstrate their character, values, and vision." In my work with coaching clients, I guide people to improve their communication using storytelling as the foundation of our work together. What I've realized over years of coaching and podcasting is that the majority of people don't realize the impact of the stories they share - on their internal messages, and on the people they're sharing them with. My work with leaders and people who aspire to be leaders follows a similar path to the interviews on my podcast, uncovering pivotal moments in their lives and learning how to share them to connect more authentically with others, to make their presentations and speaking more engaging, to reveal patterns that have kept them stuck or moved them forward, and to improve their relationships at work and at home. The audiobook, Your Stories Don't Define You, How You Tell Them Will is now available! Included with your purchase are two bonus tracks, songs recorded by Sarah's band, Spare Change, in her living room in Montana.   Interested in NLV? Sign up here!   Show Notes by Chinook Bromlie

How do you see desire: as a challenge or an opportunity? If you chose the first option, you definitely believe your desires aren't within reach. But don't worry, that isn't your fault. Living in a masculine culture as a feminine person means pushing your instincts deep down. So much so you don't even recognize them. This unfortunately conditions us to feel anger and shame towards our desires, which only pushes us away from our power even more. But have no fear, because there are magnificent women leading a rebellion to honor our womanly desires. In case you missed it, I had the magnetic Mama Gena on the IHML Show to discuss how to take your pleasure seriously. Her New York Times best-selling novel, Pussy: A Reclamation, speaks volumes about the importance of desires to our wellbeing. Not only for ourselves, but other people as well! I felt called to share my essential takeaways from this book that have not only influenced my life but many others, too.  Pussy is a much needed reminder that we women are worthy of all we desire. More importantly, we shouldn't feel discouraged by the challenges of experiencing them. Embracing our desire means discovering our creativity, wealth, and knowledge. Mama Gena loves to remind us that the feminine force is responsible for desire, but the masculine takes responsibility in maintaining it. This power struggle is what pressures women to second-guess their power, and all the ways they can express it. Let this podcast episode be the inspirational pep talk you need to rediscover what desire means to you. It's well within your right to experience the beauty of desire, and all the transformation that comes from it! In This Episode: Emily shares her biggest learnings from Mama Gena's book, Pussy: A Reclaimation. What makes a woman a legend? Listen to find out. Why your wants and needs matter most to you— and the rest of the world. Emily shares her life mantras inspired by Mama Gena and Raymond Holliwell. How you can rewire your mind to trust your desires (and strengthen your instincts). The exercises that Mama Gena believes can help us discover our deepest desires. If you struggle to see your desires as reality, tune into what Mama Gena's book says. Why everything leading you to your desires is just as important. The ultimate sacrifice to get what we want most in this world… Do you know the most important part of a woman's journey?  The one (of many) definitions of fabulous— and why each woman is capable of it. How listening to your inner child can transform your life! Emily shares Mama Gena's legendary dress story to remind us all we deserve to make our dreams a reality. Quotes: “Every woman's legend must be lived in order to feed the evolution of the world. We will never live our legend if we follow someone else's script or someone else's roadmap, listening to and living our desires if they were a roadmap to our truth is the way we women live.” - Emily Williams (quoting Mama Gena's book Pussy: A Reclamation) “We are all impacted, influenced, and shaped for the better by the radiant power of a woman's desire.” - Emily Williams (quoting Mama Gena's book Pussy: A Reclamation) “When you look at your desires, are you looking at them, feeling ashamed, feeling like you need to hide them, feeling like you're not good enough to achieve them, feeling like if you go for those desires, then someone's gonna be negative, or are you looking at it as you know what the world requires?” - Emily Williams “True desire represents the urge of life, seeking a fuller expression and is kept alive by the continuous expectation of its fulfillment.” - Emily Williams (quoting Raymond Holliwell quoted by Mama Gena) “I'd love for you to think about a time when you actually followed a crazy desire, but it ended up working in your favor. We all have stories like that.” - Emily Williams “I believe the word ‘desire' is much stronger than the word ‘want'.” - Emily Williams “Feeling turned on at the thought of a desire sends an energetic vortex of attraction out into the world.” - Emily Williams, quoting Mama Gena “We [women] are designed to rupture in order to continually shed the skin that no longer fits us.” - Mama Gena as quoted by Emily Williams “The problem is that we women are so deeply wounded by the masculine culture in which we've been raised.” - Emily Williams (quoting Pussy: A Reclamation) Links & Resources: Follow the I Heart My Life Show on Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/i-heart-my-life-show/id1569047758  Subscribe to the I Heart My Life Show on Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/1Zw6fI37FrfVjZMXlMiZZ6 Connect with Emily: Emily Williams Website https://emilywilliams.com/  Emily on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/emilywilliams/  I Heart My Life Website https://www.iheartmylife.com/ I Heart My Life on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/iheartmylife/ I Heart My Life on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/iheartmylifenow I Heart My Life on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/company/i-heart-my-life/ Join the IHML community to receive exclusive announcements and tips. https://www.iheartmylife.com/newsletter Email: info@iheartmylife.com  Find Mama Gena: Mama Gena Website https://mamagenas.com  Mama Gena Instagram https://www.instagram.com/mamagena/  Mama Gena's book Pussy: A Reclamation https://mamagenas.com/books/?utm_campaign=social&utm_source=instagram

Self-doubt is part of human experience yet left unchecked, it could restrain us from discovering our purpose and living the true meaning of life. We are joined today by an overcomer and victor, Joann. Joann wrote her first novel at twelve, but always convinced herself she wasn't good enough, smart enough, etc. She has had a lack of a "core" or sense of self her entire life. Part of that confusion stems from being an adoptee who didn't fit in with her family or the small town where she grew up. Consequently, she went through several bouts of depression, both large and small. Mid-life she took a leap and obtained her master's degree in creative writing, not as a career path but to prove she could do it. A publisher was interested in her thesis novella, "The Something That Happened in Pepperville," and she still didn't feel comfortable embracing this identity. Authors were smart and successful people and that wasn't her. The day after her first book signing, she and her husband moved 2,000 miles across the country to begin their next adventure. Every opportunity she thought she had waiting for her fell through. In addition to that lack of self, she now had no job, no friends, and no outlet. On top of that, a foot injury left her housebound for over a year. She went through counseling with a person who used her as her therapist and spent hours sitting in the dark closet trying to feel connected to something. Joanne convinced herself things would get better if she just sat there long enough. Two years later, her husband had a massive heart attack while hiking in the woods. His heart stopped six times, and as a result, he has permanent brain damage. While she was sitting in his room, listening to the machine's pump and whir, she had a revelation: She has been pushing the notion that she's a writer out of her head all of her life, waiting for the perfect moment. When would that be, exactly? It certainly wasn't happening inside the closet. Looking at her husband, she realized we have no guarantees and if that's who she truly was, the time to write was now. She spent his recovery writing her first novel, telling herself it was a one-and-done. The part of her she had shoved away for so many years, spoke up and said, "I'm not going away now. This is who you are. Embrace it." Currently, she has published eight novels (two are award-winning novels) and have several more planned. Eventually, she was able to find a therapist and medication that kept her out of the dark space. Giving in to that inner voice and following the path laid out, she has finally found peace and her identity: Joanne is an author.

Some think science and faith exist in separate worlds, but Curt Thompson sees things a different way. As a successful psychiatrist who's also a person of deep faith, Curt shows that having a deep understanding of science can give us a greater understanding of the world God made for us, while leading us into a deeper relationship with Him.    Quotes “Every generation of people has to have its own conversion experience. And our conversion experiences are largely ones that require our imaginations to be surprised. When Jesus came,  He caught people by surprise. And every generation since requires being surprised, being caught off guard.” —Curt Thompson “There was always a longing within me to have some better sense of how we operate as human beings, to integrate with what I had experienced in my spiritual life as a follower of Jesus.” —Curt Thompson “We have this desire to create beauty and goodness in the world as a feature of connecting us to other human relationships as we are known by them. The beauty that we create only serves to reinforce this sense of connection, which then only serves to reinforce our longing to go further and create even more beauty and goodness in the world.” —Curt Thompson   Curt Thompson's LinksCurt's website Curt's Facebook Curt's Instagram Curt's Twitter   Resources Mentioned in This EpisodeThe Soul of Desire by Curt Thompson The Soul of Shame by Curt Thompson   Connect with Sally Lloyd-JonesJesus Storybook Bible Facebook Jesus Storybook Bible Instagram  Sally's website Sally's Facebook Sally's Instagram   *The Jesus Storybook Bible Podcast is produced by Four Eyes Media*

Davide DeAngelis is a spirit technologist, visual alchemist, and creator of the Starman Tarot where he helps others reveal and align the natures of reality to gain a deeper understanding of the world around them. Davide worked with David Bowie on artwork for the albums Outside and Earthling, as well as collaborating on an installation for the Venice Biennale (where do we come from, where do we go?) and an exhibition in London's Cork Street. In today's episode, Davide takes host Chris McCann through a card reading in hopes of exploring and discovering more about his inner self. According to Davide, tarot cards don't predict your future. Rather they are there to help guide you towards a question or conversation that your soul needs to have regarding situations in the past, future, or present. It is then up to the reader to interpret how these cards bring meaning into their lives. When we give meaning to our experiences, we can better connect to both our physical bodies and spirits. Tune into this week's episode of Soul Dive to hear Davide give Chris an in-depth Starman tarot card reading. Learn more about overcoming restrictions, finding value in your experiences, and how to use the cards to ask questions and start conversations that propel your journey to enlightenment forward. Quotes • “Every day is kind of like a fluid exploration of creativity.” (08:19-08:23) • “You're someone who has come from a tremendous restriction and because of that, you have the ability to be with a restriction and find liberation which is a powerful gift.” (12:48-13:13) • “What's interesting about the cards is that they're just archetypal pointers towards something that opens up a conversation or question.” (15:53-16:05) • “Unless something has the capacity within itself to translate into a real-life situation, then it doesn't have much value.” (16:30-16:45) • “The natural way of being is to be completely connected to spirit and totally present on the Earth.” (28:25-23:35) Links Learn more about Davide DeAngelis: • Instagram: @davidestarman • Website: https://starmancreations.com/ • Creative Power System https://www.creativeboom.com/features/davide-de-angelis-on-working-with-david-bowie-the-as-yet-unrealised-ideas-they-created-and-why-its-so-important-for-creatives-to-make-work-that-surprises-and-challenges-them-/ ► APRIL 2022 SoCal GATHERING ► WORK WITH ME ► SUBSCRIBE TO THE SOUL DIVE PODCAST: Spotify Apple Podcasts Anchor --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/internalaffair/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/internalaffair/support
