Today my guest is Brooke Wyckoff. This past year, Brooke had the opportunity to serve as our Interim Head Coach while our regular head coach Sue Semrau took a single-season leave of absence to care for her mother (her mother is thankfully in remission from ovarian cancer). Not only did Brooke gain experience as a first-time head coach (after 10 years of being an assistant coach), she also tried to be another mouthpiece to speak out about various motherhood issues (work-life balance, the lack of quality maternity leave, encourage other Mothers that they can be a Division I Head Coach AND raise a family). Back in 2014, Brooke co-founded an organization called Moms in Coaching. This is a support group for mothers who are coaching but are unsure if they can be full-time coaches and full-time moms. The motto lately from Brooke is that You can do both. Brooke has a beautiful seven-year old girl named Avery who was born in Nov. 2013. When Brooke was pregnant, she searched around campus for other Moms in athletics that she could bond with during her pregnancy, but there weren't very many. That's why she began to start her organization and make it more national.

So, someone hurt you and caused you pain. And you know you should forgive them. But that's easier said than done. Or, you say you have forgiven but when you think of the person who offended you, what emotions arise within you? Do you genuinely wish them well? Or, do memories of that event still bring up feelings of pain, regret and ill will? If you've ever struggled with unforgiveness, I teach through a guaranteed step by step process how to forgive and let go of the pain, no matter how impossible it may seem currently.

But very few graduate into the level where money is consistently multiplied into their hands until they are significantly wealthy. In this episode, I teach through the scriptures: - Why you shouldn't settle for ONLY having your needs met or securing your future; - Why it is God's plan to get as much money into the hands of people who will advance his kingdom on the earth; - And how you can position yourself to be a generator and distributor of wealth.

Most people, especially women, have been sold the idea that it is impossible to have it all. And some believe that even if you do, it can only be in seasons. In other words, if your career is flying high, then you shouldn't be too surprised if your children begin to fall behind at school. Or, if you're holding down the fort at home and at work, then you'd have to sacrifice your mental health and personal fulfillment. My question is, does this really sound like the abundant and overflowing life Jesus came to give us? Or, is it just something we have accepted because the world says so? In this episode, I debunk this idea with scriptural teaching and several examples from the lives of people that are indeed having it all, all of the time. And I teach how you can too.

The host of the SuperAbundant Life Podcast, Olawunmi Brigue, introduces the audience to the concept of the SuperAbundant Life and shares her own story of inside-out transformation. Barely out of school and pregnant out of wedlock, with no job or money, she battled constantly with an unrelenting sense of worthlessness in the midst of depression, bitterness, guilt, shame and confusion.

REBROADCAST. New episodes return in June 2021. So, you have this big idea you've been carrying for a while - probably for years. The more you think about it, the bigger and more impressive it becomes in your mind. But the problem is, you are yet to take any meaningful action towards it. And here's why: the longer you ruminate on an idea, the bigger and more disconnected it gets from your present reality, and consequently, the less likely you are to take action. An old proverb says, "How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time." And that's what I teach in this week's podcast. If you are ready to get out of your own head and start taking meaningful action towards your big ideas, then this is a must listen.

Someone said life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you respond. In other words, when a project or goal fails, it has little to do with the obstacles you face and a lot to do with how you handle them. In episode, I bring your attention to four traps that often cause goals to fail and how you can skilfully handle them to ensure you cross your finish line.

Hard work without visibility often means you end up getting bypassed - no matter how good you are. If people don't know the value you're bringing to the table, they can't celebrate you - whether through a promotion at work or by purchasing the products and services you're offering. This week on the SuperAbundant Life Podcast I teach the reasons why people tend to fear visibility, as well as the mindset-shifting truths and strategies that will help you overcome this fear to shine brightly in your world.

Do you have a dream? Then I have some news for you; you will face opposition. It doesn't matter if your dream is as simple as bagging that promotion at work or as complicated as finding the cure for cancer, there will be people who will show up at different points on your journey to oppose you. Some because they love you and don't want to see you disappointed, and some because they detest the idea of you and their driving goal is to see you to fail. If your dream is going to survive the Naysayers, Doubters & Haters you meet on the way, you have to know how to strategically handle them. And that's what I'm going to be teaching today.

I know nowadays people tend to dismiss and even badmouth new year's resolutions, and I get why. For many people, resolutions rarely last beyond January. But the truth is, anyone setting these resolutions should be commended because they are demonstrating a desire to grow and make the new year better than the last. So in today's episode, I teach the simple system I use to craft a God-given vision for my year. By approaching it a way that puts God first, I've seen my success rate skyrocket compared to when I casually churned out resolutions. This is Olawunmi Brigue. Life Coach to Rockstar Women.

Everyday Rockstar (0:00:00) Lisa and Richie talk with this week's featured Everyday Rockstar. You can nominate yourself or someone you know for going above and beyond by emailing thelisashow@byu.edu. Women's Equality Day (0:06:51) Happy Women's Equality Day! Women's Equality Day celebrates the adoption of the 19thAmendment into the US Constitution, giving women the legal right to vote in our country. But what is the story behind the pain, struggle, and protesting that led to its eventual adoption? Joining us today is Neylan McBaine, woman's suffrage expert and author of “Pioneering the Vote”, her latest book detailing the story of lesser-known suffragists in Utah and in the West. She's here to discuss her new book and the importance of the history of women's suffrage. Recovering From Infidelity (0:21:58) Approximately 1 in 5 married couples struggle with extramarital affairs. Infidelity can destroy families and cause immense heartache. Recovery may seem impossible. Whether you're trying to fix the marriage or decide to recover on your own and separate, healing is important. But it can be hard to know where to start. To help us navigate this issue, we've invited Dr. Janis Abrahms Spring, a clinical psychologist of 43 years and author of “After the Affair: Healing the Pain and Rebuilding Trust When a Partner Has Been Unfaithful.” Caregiver Burnout (0:32:51) When I think of a caregiver, I usually think of a parent responsible for a young child. However, caregivers really are anyone who provides, well, “care” for another individual. By definition, this often requires giving up a portion of your time and energy to ensure another's wellbeing—sometimes even to the exclusion of the caregivers own wellbeing. However, your needs as a caregiver are important as well. Here to discuss what these needs are, how to meet them, and how to avoid caregiver burnout is MSW, LSM, and best-selling author Edie Moser. The Last Blockbuster on Earth (0:59:37) I love being able to rent movies online. Especially now—it's great to have that easy access. But I do get nostalgic for the days of video rentals. There was something magical about taking a trip to a Blockbuster, checking out the new releases, re-watching classics, and grabbing snacks. Unfortunately, you can no longer find a Blockbuster on every corner, but there is one corner—the last corner in the world—where you can relive those golden days. The last Blockbuster on earth is still operating out of Bend, Oregon! Here to tell us how they've been able to stick it out for so long is store manager, Sandi Harding. Back to School Advice from a Teacher (1:14:31) School is right around the corner, which means the nerves our kids have been feeling about the new school year are becoming more and more real. It's important our kids start their classes off on the right foot. So, we thought we'd get a teacher's perspective on what students can do to succeed this year. Joining us today is veteran teacher Elizabeth Brockbank Hoffman. We're excited to get some advice from her as fall approaches. Side Hustles (1:29:10) I love the innovation and creativity we've seen as a result of the difficulties of this year. And what has been really inspiring is seeing how people turn their creativity and hobbies into side hustles to lessen the blow of the economic downturn. Sometimes, however, we need a little advice on how to turn our banana bread making, or whatever hobby into an actual business. So today, we are getting advice from Alison from The Alison Show and the Awesome with Alison podcast on how to make your side hustle a booming success.
Lisa and Richie talk to this week's Everyday Rockstar, Neylan McBaine discusses women's suffrage, Janis Spring teaches how to heal after infidelity, Edie Moser talks about caregiver burnout, Sandi Harding discusses her Blockbuster store, Elizabeth Hoffman gives back to school advice, Alison Faulkner explains investing in side hustles.
Let's talk about the business of wellness… Ara Katz is the Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Seed Health, a microbial sciences company pioneering applications of bacteria to impact human and environmental health. The multifaceted business features a consumer division alongside an R&D Lab, that together are disrupting the $50B+ global probiotics market and stewarding the future of how we will use bacteria to restore, and sustain, human and planetary health with serious science. Ara is a serial entrepreneur and first principal's thinker who has been recognised in Marie Claire's “The New Guard: The 50 Most Influential Women in America”, listed on Business Insider's “Silicon Alley Top 100” and “36 Rockstar Women in NYC Tech”. In this episode, Ara talks about how her curiosity led her to launch Seed, the science behind probiotics and microbiomes (check out seed.com for lots more info), and her belief that ‘education is medicine'. We also find out more about Seed University, the brands approach to social media, and why ‘people are everything' to this science-driven company.

Send your Everyday Rockstar nominations to thelisashow@byu.edu. NASA and Women in STEM (0:08:11) According to a 2018 study by the NGC Project, women make up only 28% of the STEM workforce in the United States. Despite producing some of the most innovative technology and research results that we've ever seen, the STEM world still has a long way to go in terms of diversity. So, what is it like working in a field in which you are severely under-represented? Joining us again on the show is Dr. Knicole Colon, a research astrophysicist at NASA and a woman in STEM. We're discussing her experiences working in the STEM field and how we can encourage other girls to pursue their career dreams as well. POUND (0:19:44) What if we told you that 25,000 instructors in over 100 countries are teaching thousands of people to exercise with drumsticks? Well you better believe it, because this unique form of exercise is sweeping the globe. It all began in 2011whentwo women mixed their love for drumming with exercise to stay in shape. They discovered that dancing with drumsticks helps women rock out and feel empowered. This dance exercise is called Pound, and it combines dance, cardio, pilates and yes, drumsticks. Here to tell us more about this popular trend is former Pound instructor, Harlee Dye! Smart Homes 101 (0:33:50) Technology seems to be getting smarter every day. The jury is still out on whether our devices are actually smarter than us, but they can do some amazing things. We have smart phones in our pockets, smart watches on our wrist, and smart fridges in the kitchen, that are meant to make our lives easier and better. But have you thought about adding a smart home to your list? To help us know if we should buy them and what smart homes can really do, we've invited Sarah Kimmel onto the show. She's a family tech expert and digital parenting coach. Family Therapy (1:00:50) Every family has its issues. And while many families find ways to work through them without any help, sometimes their problems are too big to solve on their own. For those of you who need some outside help, family therapy could be the option for you. But before you sign up—we want to know a little bit more about what family therapy is and how it might be beneficial. Here to share his expertise with us is Dr. Robert Taibbi. Backyard Camping Ideas (1:13:32) As I've said before on the show, one of my favorite things to do is go camping. And there's no better time to go than during the summer. Lots of people go camping in national or state parks. But have you ever considered camping in your backyard? If not, you might consider it seeing as the pandemic is still at large and social distancing is still advised. Heather and Will Rochfort are an outdoor power couple who recently came out with a book called Sleeping Bags to S'mores: Camping Basics. Their book just so happens to have some suggestions on backyard camping. We've invited them on the show to help us understand how we can make backyard camping a fun reality. Conflict Personalities (1:31:25) Even though we all have to confront conflict at some point in our lives, we also try to avoid it at all costs. Whether it's dealing with kids breaking rules, working with people who have different opinions, or speaking up when the cashier charges you more than was advertised...we all hate conflict. But, we deal with it in different ways, because we have different “conflict personalities” as the experts say. To help us understand how conflict can be a positive thing and identify our conflict personality, we've invited family lawyer and author of the new book “The Conflict Resolution Grail,” Meysa Maleki.

“We are, by definition, an ecosystem. The microbiome reveals a more connected biology, radically transforming our approach to medicine, hygiene, diet, and living.”Ara Katz & Raja DhirOur bodies are comprised of about ten trillion cells. But our microbiome — all the bacteria, viruses, and fungi that live in or on our bodies – outnumber human cells by a factor of 10.Indeed, we are far more microorganism than human.Moreover, rapidly developing science reveals the vast extent to which the nature of our personal microbiome drives not only our propensity for disease and digestive health, but also, quite surprisingly, can dictate our mental disposition, cognitive function, and even our specific food cravings.Today we take a magnifying glass to the mind-blowing netherworld of microbiota to illuminate their implications not just on human health, but the well-being of planet Earth at large.Our stewards for this fantastic voyage are Ara Katz and Raja Dhir, the co-founders of Seed, a venture backed microbiome company at the pioneering edge of bacteria science.Ara is a serial entrepreneur and fellow at the MIT Media Lab’s Center for Future Storytelling and CCA’s DesignMBA program. She was named one of the “50 Most Influential Women in America” by Marie Claire, listed on Business Insider’s “Silicon Alley Top 100” and “36 Rockstar Women in NYC Tech”, and was recently included in Create + Cultivate’s 100 List for STEM.One of the most knowledgeable people I have ever met when it comes to our rapidly evolving understanding of the microbiome, Raja is a life sciences entrepreneur and a member of the Microbiome Think Tank at Mass General Hospital. He sits on the editorial board for the scientific journal Microbiome as well as the advisory committee for the International Scientific Association for Probiotics and Prebiotics. In addition, he is a director and co-chair of the scientific advisory board for Micropia, a $20MM microbial ecology and education platform as well as the world’s first museum dedicated to microbes.Today we cover it all.First, we define the microbiome. We discuss the difference between prebiotics and probiotics. And to cut through the consumer confusion fomented by gut health commodification, we separate fact from fiction by examining the difference between an effective priobiotic and the countless food and supplement products simply marketed as such.Most importantly, we explore what the latest science tells us about the power of microbes to heal our bodies, positively impact childhood development, reinvigorate the quality of our soil and improve the overall ecology of Planet Earth — including some amazing work Ara & Raja are doing with bee populations.Seed Offer: As a simple thanks for listening, Ara & Raja have a gift for you.

From Andy: This was just about the most fun I've ever had in a conversation about some seriously scientific and technical stuff - the human biome and gut. Ara and Raja were so good at taking their vast knowledge and expertise, boiling it down to the things that are most important, and explaining it in a way that a normal layperson can understand. The developments we're making in the research of the microbiome and gut are so exciting and cutting edge - this is a conversation that you've got to take the time to check out! Enjoy!

Lisa Cohen is the published author of the book called “Overcome The BS of MS: A 3-Step Plan For Women Living With Multiple Sclerosis” and the founder of Rockstar Women with MS. In 2001, Lisa was diagnosed with relapsing-remitting MS and at that point, her symptoms don't come and go. She experienced worsening physical impairments which made her daily activities more difficult to do. After much realization, Lisa has developed a "rockstar" mindset and believed that there are options to get better and be the person she wanted to be. She got used to dealing with the illness and it became easier for her to live the rockstar life. Through her own experience and by talking to women suffering from MS in the different states in the US and in other countries, Lisa was compelled to write the book which aims to empower women and help them live actively to further improve their way of life.
