Turn your scars into your superpower! ***** In this episode, Dr. Selvi will discuss her battle with Crohn's disease. How ignoring her health in order to pursue medical school (with the added cultural pressure of being the perfect student) affected her life and how listening to her body was her only rescue. About Dr. Selvi: Dr. Selvi guides women to soothe their Crohn's (and regain their life!) naturally. Realizing that the answers to healing herself took more than what her medical doctors, or her own medical training, could offer, Dr. Selvi successfully explored alternatives to get to remission and remain in remission for 10 years. Her passion lies in applying these and other methods she learned along the way, to help her clients regain their life from the pain, exhaustion, and other symptoms of Crohn's. Dr. Selvi lives in New Jersey and (free from the grip of Crohn's) loves nothing more than to dance, travel and explore in her free time!

Turn your scars into your superpower! ***** #Audrabryant #ivegotscarsbaby #Scars In this episode, Jon discusses his road to the Olympics and his deal with Nike which led him to create his own apparel brand. This is a powerful interview about the importance of going after your dream! ABOUT JON: On April 9, 2005, I became the 17th African American in history to run a sub 4-minute mile. After graduating from UCLA, I was sponsored by Nike and trained and raced in the US and Europe in preparation for the 2008 Olympics, eventually earning an alternate spot in the 1500 meters. After the Olympic Games, a kidney biopsy revealed a terminal disease known as focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, or FSGS. Following this diagnosis, I retired from the sport I love to dedicate myself to battling FSGS and taking care of my family. After receiving an experimental stem cell surgery that reversed my kidney disease in 2011, I vowed never to take for granted what time I still have left to live my dream of inspiring others to get the most out of their life as a motivational speaker and with the help of inspirational apparel by Go Be More.

Turn your scars into your superpower! ***** #Audrabryant #ivegotscarsbaby #Scars In this episode Spiritual Scientist, Zion Shabazz, talks about the process and benefits of Ancestral Recovery. He describes the origin of many of our mental and physical illness and how to get on the road to empowering yourself now. ABOUT ZION: Zion Shabazz defines spiritual science as the study and true knowledge of self and the universe.  With knowledge of self being the ultimate goal, healing and remembering the true history of our Ancestors are imperative towards achieving that goal.  Based in Los Angeles, Zion has studied and practiced around the world to uncover and master an incredibly effective combination of healing tools available. Zion targets the root of the physical or emotional stress in order to facilitate a safe transformation of that energy. In this way, he is working toward treating the cause rather than temporarily treating the symptom.  Zion's purpose with this work is to empower and support others with practical methods geared towards realizing conscious communion with their higher self.  This direct connection leads to inner peace and enjoying a virtuous lifestyle that no one can ever take away. Ancestral Clearing- resolving past issues that either stem from our childhood or that have been passed down through our DNA. When these issues are left unresolved, they have a direct adverse impact on our own happiness, health, prosperity and relationships. By resolving our past, we are now able to actualize our full potential in the present.  Ancestral clearing transforms negative energy so that it can no longer block our progress. Ancestral Recovery- restoring the harmonious state of a healthy body and mind while reclaiming our stolen legacy Reiki- energy healing through the use of touch or hovering to help activate the body's own natural healing abilities. Reiki promotes stress reduction and relaxation that allows for renewed strength and restoration of one's physical and emotional well-being.

Turn your scars into your superpower! ***** #Audrabryant #ivegotscarsbaby #Scars In this episode, Ryan talks about his experience with as a white man living America and his perspective on the scars of racism and his desire for healing the divide. ABOUT RYAN: Ryan “Ryz” Walker has been giving free hugs and making beats since he was in diapers. As a baby he innately danced and banged on pots and pans, which naturally led to a Muppet Babies drum kit. Love and rhythm weren't the only things moving young Ryz, however. He also enjoyed singing. His mother often broke out a microphone and cassette deck to record his sister and him performing smash hits such as “Itsy Bitsy Spider” and “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.” From day one, music, love and joy were one in the same for young Ryz.    As a kid, he would daydream about a world filled with love while hypnotized by the sounds of jazz and hip-hop, courtesy of the orchestra in his mind. Melodies, harmonies, rhythms and rhymes constantly filled his soul. At age 8 his parents divorced, which gave music an additional role in his life. It became a way for Ryz to express and cope with pain. This was the first time he became aware of music as a healer. He started putting rhymes down on paper and formed his first group in fifth grade where he and some friends rapped and danced. He also studied the saxophone and once middle school came around he was playing the drums in jazz band. As music and love continued to express through Ryz, he was voted class friendliest by his peers; an acknowledgement he is still grateful for to this day. With music as his companion, Ryz has deepened his understanding of love through self-reflection, life lessons, and being a shoulder for others to lean on. His path eventually lead him to the practice of Transcendental Meditation, developed by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi (famed guru to the Beatles). Not long after discovering meditation, he enrolled at the University of Santa Monica where he obtained certification in Advanced Spiritual Psychology, acquiring 480 hours of practice in facilitating self-discovery. Another significant part of his transformation has included adopting an intermittent fasting vegan lifestyle along with releasing 85 lbs. and counting.      It's no surprise that Ryz is still giving free hugs and making beats. They remain foundational in his being, as he uses his story, music, life's challenges and victories, to empower, uplift and inspire. Since his Susquehanna days, Ryz knew his journey included good friend and soul brother, Evan Bane. This brotherhood and shared purpose of raising the vibration of love on the planet has emerged as The Wake Up Experience.

Turn your scars into your superpower! ***** #Audrabryant #ivegotscarsbaby #Scars In this episode, Dr. Tongie Scott discusses her experience being a single Mom (with three children by the age of 21), sexual abuse, a lack of connection with her birth father and promiscuity. Here she discusses the work and faith she had to have to pull herself back up and continue to pursue her dream of becoming a medical doctor. #Scars #selfesteem #selflove ABOUT DR. TONGIE SCOTT: Tongie Scott, a.k.a. Dr. Tongie helps countless soon-to-be business owners/individuals live a more productive, dedicated, and purposeful life. Oprah in the Natural. Moses in the Spirit. Born in Columbus, Mississippi, to Annie Brown and Joe Fenton, Dr. Tongie faced unforeseen and unimaginable circumstances.  Being introduced to the importance of establishing a relationship with God through Christ at a very young age; Dr. Tongie has seen firsthand the benefits of this relationship. After attending Caldwell High School and graduating a year early, Dr. Tongie quickly learned that life needed a plan of action. Forced to discontinue her studies at Mississippi University for Women in the fall of 1988, Dr. Tongie focused on becoming a great Mother to her three children: Ty, Tryone, and Morgan.  But as life would have it, Dr. Tongie, in 1992, was diagnosed with malignant papillary carcinoma of the thyroid. After treatment of radiation therapy, Dr. Tongie was finally ready to thrust herself into life. Upon matriculating into medical school at 31 years old; Dr. Tongie proved to herself and her children that no matter how old you are if you believe that you can and deserve to be “here”; you will.  Before launching interactive shows such as Talk to Tongie (featured on Facebook Live) and the Dr. Tongie Show, (featured on LA Talk Radio), Dr. Tongie served several years as the CEO of Me and My Nanna, LLC-A Home Care Company.  And as a medical consultant for families looking for skilled facilities, convalescent homes and assisted living facilities for their loved ones. After a successful career helping adult students discover their passion in medicine and serving as an in-demand motivational and inspirational speaker; Dr. Tongie now creates opportunities for those who desire to truly discover who they were born to be by asking five (5) simple questions: (1) Who are you?; (2) Where are you from?; (3) What can you do (your abilities)?; (4) Why were you born?; and (5) What is your destiny? She believes that the individual who can answer those questions will cause a shift in their lives, and they will be the change they want to see in themselves. When not traveling, Dr. Tongie enjoys spending time with her family and dancing. One of her favorite places to go and have fun...a Zumba Class.

Turn your scars into your superpower! ***** Scott St. Patrick discusses his experience as an actor recently diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). He speaks about how it has affected him as an actor and shifted his outlook on life.  ABOUT SCOTT: Scott St. Patrick is an American writer and actor from Westchester, NY. Classically trained, Scott has studied with such stalwarts in theatre like Deena Levy, Trudy Steibl, and Rochelle Oliver at HB Studios. His passion and studies have led him to work with major repertoire theatres on and off Broadway; including starring in the smash faith based production, “Laid Off” at the Hammerstein Ballroom. Since moving to Los Angeles in 2009, Scott has appeared in a variety of commercials, Independent films, and theatre productions. However, his staple has been the production of his spellbinding, one-man play, “Act God” which was executive produced by mentor and friend Don B. Welch.  In addition to acting, Scott has a strong passion for bringing awareness to social issues through his writing. The recent shootings of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile, two black men shot and killed by law enforcement in 2016, prompted Scott to write the controversial play Minority Report in September of 2016. Not only was the show well received (Standing Room Only) but it is currently being used by several colleges and universities as a part of their diversity initiatives.    Connect with Scott at: https://www.instagram.com/scottstpatrick/ --- #IveGotScarsBaby #MS #MultipleSclerosis *Free Gift for You: "3 Ways to Turn Your Scars Into Your Superpower":  https://witty-composer-7238.ck.page/974806764e Check out Audra's Music video “Scars”:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9omSfX-IMkE For Coaching Inquiries: https://www.audrabryant.com/products Connect with Audra at: Website: https://www.audrabryant.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ivegotscarsbaby and        https://www.instagram.com/audraabryant Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IveGotScarsBabyShow  Twitter: https://twitter.com/AudraABryant  --- ABOUT AUDRA: Audra was burned at a year and a half, had six surgeries between the ages of 2 and 16, and did not look at herself in the mirror until she was 25 years old.

Playwright, improviser and mental health counselor John Mabey joins us on this episode to discuss all things playwriting, theater, improv, and more. John is a listener of the show who reached out to us and we wanted to reach back to bring him on show! John began writing plays as a child before he knew that's what he was doing. He's spent the past 10 years living in New York, London and Amsterdam and now lives in the American South. He studied human behavior, emotion and relationships by earning a master's degree in Counseling and Psychology, and infuses into his playwriting everything he's learned about what it means to be human. In addition to plays, he also publishes in academic books and journals on the topics of sexual identity and spirituality. In playwriting, John enjoys experimenting with structure and uses improvisation as a way to generate creative ideas as well as its own art form. He now teaches and performs improvisation around the world with ensembles and as a solo act, and is a regular performer in true storytelling events. Last year, John co-authored a play that was produced in Amsterdam titled, The B Word, which had a successful 2-week run and multiple sold-out performances.

Playwright, improviser and mental health counselor John Mabey joins us on this episode to discuss all things playwriting, theater, improv, and more. John is a listener of the show who reached out to us and we wanted to reach back to bring him on show! John began writing plays as a child before he knew that’s what he was doing. He’s spent the past 10 years living in New York, London and Amsterdam and now lives in the American South. He studied human behavior, emotion and relationships by earning a master’s degree in Counseling and Psychology, and infuses into his playwriting everything he’s learned about what it means to be human. In addition to plays, he also publishes in academic books and journals on the topics of sexual identity and spirituality. In playwriting, John enjoys experimenting with structure and uses improvisation as a way to generate creative ideas as well as its own art form. He now teaches and performs improvisation around the world with ensembles and as a solo act, and is a regular performer in true storytelling events. Last year, John co-authored a play that was produced in Amsterdam titled, The B Word, which had a successful 2-week run and multiple sold-out performances. Next month his short play, The Most Brave Girl In The Whole Wide World, is included in the Los Angeles play festival ‘A Light In Dark Places’ at the Stella Adler Theatre.

But those actors are so faaaaaaar away from where so many of us are today! Wouldn’t it be great to hear from the guy who just booked his first pilot? Or the kid finally doing a studio pic after a bunch of low budget indies? Or the woman who’s been a series regular a few times but is only now becoming a name? What about the guy who’s been on a show for years and you know his face but what’shisnameagain? Or that actress who is now a freakin’ showrunner???? How’d THEY do it, right? How did they transition from relative obscurity, bartending and bottle service, to buying that house in the hills? We’re producing “Kahnversations,” a podcast that provides access to THOSE people -- your immediate predecessors -- so that you can learn from them while their battle scars are still fresh. In “Kahnversations,” our own Ryan Bailey interviews some of Lesly Kahn & Company’s working actors, directors, and writers in order to learn how they got started in Hollywood, the challenges and hurdles they faced, and how they overcame the odds. (They also dish out some crazy stories!) Listen in and enjoy as these entertainers speak candidly about their paths, processes, and experiences. You might even hear a bit about how Lesly and the Kahnstitute have influenced and shaped their careers.
