CBS-TV's 'The Doctors', Tom Joyner Morning Show, PBSIt's an Earth Celebration here at BAS! Hope everyone enjoys Earth Week Worldwide Festivities. My guests is Entrepreneur & Raw Living Model Annette Larkins. She has been featured on NBC- TV 's 'The Doctors', PBS & heard on the Tom Joyner Morning Show. She maintain's her Hydroponic Garden Inside her home & and Garden outside. Annette is also a great raw gourmet chef. She receives letters and request from all over the world on her teachings about health & youthful benefits of a raw lifestyle.Annette saw first hand being raised on "Soul Food" as a kid & seeing her family & friends experiences with cancer, high blood pressure, diabetes & dying young. She learned as a young lady that she better follow a different path. Now over 50 years later, her husband who is nine years her senior wishes he'd followed her advise, he has diabetes & high blood pressure. Annette is often mistaken for his daughter!  In her early career, she manufactured a salad dressing; The Little Chef's dressing was a popular item in health food stores, and customers were disappointed when it was no longer available. One day while shopping in one of the stores where the dressing had been sold, Annette encountered a lady who asked, “You're The Little Chef aren't you?” “Yes, well, I was.” replied Annette. “They told me that you stopped making the dressing, and I am, now, looking for something comparable to it. My son says that if he can't have The Little Chef's, then he just won't eat salads.” “What a commercial!” thought Annette; however, she would not be swayed by such remarks. The reason she had produced the dressing in the first place was because people said she should market it; so she did, but she lacked the passion to see it though to its greatest potential.  Annette's desire to help others achieve a healthier lifestyle is manifested through the production of her DVD Annette's Raw Kitchen and her booklets Journey To Health and Journey To health 2. Having investigated assorted career opportunities, she now recognizes that the health field is where she belongs, and she plans to serve in that arena for as long as possible! ~ AnnetteLarkins.com© 2025 All Rights Reserved© 2025 Building Abundant Success!!Join Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASSpot Me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy:  https://tinyurl.com/BASAud

Send us a Text Message.I am delighted to welcome this week on The Joy of Cruising Podcast, a special guest, Damon Williams, a legendary comedian, actor, host, writer, and producer. He is a native of Chicago who has become a household name in the entertainment industry for over 30 years. Williams' journey to stardom began as a young entrepreneur, owning a Subway sandwich shop in the early '90s. However, he caught the comedy bug, and since then, he hasn't looked back. Over the years, Williams has worked with some of the most iconic stars in show business, too many to mention. He has performed stand-up comedy on several networks, including numerous television appearances. Williams' reputation as a highly sought-after comedian led to him earning the opening spot on the legendary Kings of Comedy Tour. I first got to see Damon live in 2018 when we sailed on Celebrity Equinox for Festival at Sea, the 35-year-old perennially sold-outAfrican-American Cultural Cruise. I wrote about Festival at Sea in The Joy of Cruising http://amzn.to/2EAMddF. This is what I wrote about Damon: “The nationally known comedians on the cruise included Damon Williams, featured performer and cruise host from the nationally syndicated Tom Joyner Morning Show; Damon has been a featured performer and host on Festival at Sea since 2006…” I recently learned that we will experience Damon live again in a few months. We are booked on the Soulful Epicurean French River Cruise on AmaKristina with Friends of Festival at Sea, a luxury cruise affiliate of Festival at Sea. For the full-ship charter, Friends of Festival at Sea will bring its own Comedian Host, Damon, as well as featured Friends of Festival at Sea jazz instrumentalist, dance instructor, and resident DJ. By the way, The Joy of Cruising Podcast hosted Patricia Yarbrough, Founder of Festival at Sea in August, Podcast Episode Today we are delighted to welcome Damon Williams to The Joy of Cruising Podcast.Text me!Support the Show.Support thejoyofcruisingpodcast https://www.buzzsprout.com/2113608/supporters/newSupport Me https://www.buymeacoffee.com/drpaulthContact Me https://www.thejoyofcruising.net/contact-me.htmlBook Cruises https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruisingPodcast-BookACruiseUS Orders (coupon code joyofcruisingpodcast)The Joy of Cruising https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruisingCruising Interrupted https://bit.ly/CruisingInterruptedThe Joy of Cruising Again https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruisingAgainIntl Orders via Amazon

About Orrin Hudson and Be Someone, Inc.: Orrin “Checkmate” Hudson is a former Alabama state trooper, Air Force veteran, and world renowned chess champion. He is the author of the #1 Amazon best seller, One Move at a Time, How to Win at Chess and Life. He is a captivating speaker/facilitator and is the founder of Be Someone, a Georgia-based nonprofit which provides a youth-focused leadership skills development program on how to win in life using the game of chess. His formula – using the chess board – teaches that for every move that is made, whether it is playing the game or living as a contributing citizen, there is a corresponding positive or negative consequence. Hudson has traveled across America successfully providing his unique, exciting and engaging curriculum to over 88,000 young people. Support for the organization has included Jane Fonda, Tyler Perry, Steve Harvey as well as other celebrities. He has also appeared on Good Morning America, the CBS Early Morning Show, CNN, FOX & Friends and has been on the cover of the world's largest chess magazine, Chess Life and People. Hudson and his Be Someone organization has also been featured on The Tom Joyner Morning Show, in USA Today, Essence Magazine, Sports Illustrated for Teens, Jet, Black Enterprise and Time Magazine for Kids. Hudson's ultimate vision is to serve one million at risk students using his motivating mantra: “Get Your Heads-Up!!, Pants-Up! and Grades-Up!, and most of all, to “Never Give Up! – No Matter What!” In 2001, Orrin C. Hudson, whose methods were inspired by the game of chess, founded Be Someone, which is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization that uses numerous tools, including the game of chess, to promote self-esteem, responsibility, and analytical thinking among children in underserved communities. The mission of Be Someone is to build character, hope, and inspiration so that kids can set and achieve lifetime goals, realize their full potential, and Be Someone. “Making Every Move Count” refers to the belief that success in chess and success in life require the same fundamentals, including concentration, self-esteem, problem solving skills, and discipline. Be Someone teaches kids the practical skills and techniques to overcome obstacles in life, illustrated through the best and most intellectual visual aid: the chessboard. We hear a lot these days about crime and violence in some of our local schools and communities but unfortunately news about the good things seldom gets any attention. Today, Orrin C. Hudson is making a change: “This is less about chess and more about building character. Love, Honesty, Respect, Responsibility, Patience, are five character traits that are essential to success. If we have the brightest children in the world and they don't have character, the schools have failed them and this nation has failed them. Really, Be Someone is priceless. After all, it is the moral development of the whole child that will determine their success in life.” When you do noble things, you help out other people and society and it makes you feel good.

“How can you become a non-negotiable utility or a staple in your workplace that they will refuse to ever sell off your services or go to anybody else?” Yes, you can become such an essential entity that they prefer to cut off a body part rather than removing you. Because that is what Stephen Pierce became to be after all his humble beginnings. He's helped me more than anybody else on the planet with my skills development and in becoming a man of all those great things I'm known for and so grateful for. Since more than two decades, Stephen is giving more life to people with his new perspectives, inspirational messages and methods to impact you to think and act differently to produce the results you desire. He made millions from doing online marketing and public speaking and has been seen on NBC News, FOX News, ABC, CBS, Daystar, The Tom Joyner Morning Show and Black Enterprise. But, many years ago Stephen was kicked out of high school. He was bankrupt, shot on the streets and homeless. From there he bounced back to being a fighter of faith, thriving and leading from the front lines of his industry. Now, as a public speaker Stephen Pierce shared the stage with Tony Robbins, Drew Brees, Chris Gardner, Michael Phelps, Steve Forbes, Rick Belluzzo, Lou Holtz, Terry Bradshaw, and many others. He is no stranger to obstacles, challenges, and threats. Stephen keeps his loins girded with truth. No matter the odds and no matter the cost, he continues to skillfully help others sculpt a more meaningful and memorable life of success.   In this episode you will take away many promising insights as below: What and how to become the one thing that remains a constant demand regardless of the economic environment, that thing cannot be ignored irrespective of the changes in the economy. What would anyone actually do to earn that respect or that position from their customer so that they become a necessary utility to their business or to their life How to deal with people to go past their personality and know their character How would you instruct somebody to improve when their true character is exposed when they're put under pressure   Few Quotes from the Episode People tend to use the state of the economy for the reason to do something or not to do something, so there's going to always be something. It doesn't matter what the state of the economy is, as a sales pro you should hold people's attention long enough to get the message across What can you say or do or demonstrate within 8 seconds to get people hooked for another 8 seconds, then get them hooked for another 8 seconds Not only are we in an attrition economy but we're in a scrolling society: people are scrolling away As a sales person you have to shake up the satisfaction, contentment and comfort that people are in for not doing a deal As a sales person, you need to be more concerned about the client sincerely; not just about your pockets, your own personal scoreboard, your own personal commissions Question is: How do we not just become an option or a service provider but a necessary utility to their business or to their life regardless of what changes Starting point to become that necessary utility is to start asking your customer questions        Follow Stephen Pierce @realstephenpierce

Let's close out Women's History Month with a bang! In this special episode of The Rutledge Perspective, I am joined by none other than Chicago-born media professional and social entrepreneur, Anna DeShawn! Anna is the Founder & CEO of E3 Radio which is an online radio station playing Queer music & reporting on Queer news with an intersectional lens. She is also the Co-Founder & CEO of The Qube, a podcast production company and curated platform to discover the best music & podcasts by BIPOC & QTPOC creatives. Anna is determined to ride media into its next era by utilizing online radio streams to tell the stories and play the music that needs to be heard. Having seen the lack of investment in the podcasting space when it comes to people of color, Anna is on a mission to give a voice to the voiceless and share fresh perspectives with the world. As I like to say, Anna gives people not in those communities a safe place to be curious. Along with her sharing her vision for the future as it pertains to podcasting, Anna also shares with us how she developed a love for media. From growing up admiring Robin Roberts to studying TV production at Drake University and serving different roles on the Tom Joyner Morning Show. Anna's always been involved in the media production process in one way or another and she isn't stopping any time soon! However, this episode is much deeper than media production.

It's fair to say that Sybil Wilkes, the former co-host of the Tom Joyner Morning Show, had her doubts in the beginning about her career in broadcasting, but helping hands along the way illuminated the path forward. The power of sisterhood is one of her guiding principles; she credits her mother for being a strong role model, leading her to be an advocate for others, especially women and people of color in the entertainment industry.YoSy, the media company she co-founded with her best friend, extends her “Be Informed, Be empowered” message to all of those around her. She shares with Jeanne how a few choice words from her mother let her know it was ok to step outside of her comfort zone, how self-awareness can make or break you, the three things she does for herself (or at least tries to do) everyday, and how being fired by legendary radio executive Marv Dyson turned out to be a blessing in disguise. About Sybil:Sybil is a Chicago native and graduate of Northwestern University, earning a Bachelors of Science in Political Science and Communication Studies. She began her radio career in 1985 as a production assistant at WKQX-FM, Chicago. She moved into news, leaving her hometown, and reporting for stations throughout the Southwest. She came back to Chicago in 1989, joining WGCI-AM/FM, as a talk show host. She added traffic reporter to her long resume in 1990, working at Shadow Traffic and joining Tom Joyner's show as a sidekick. She went on to be co-host with Joyner on his nationally syndicated show, heard in over 100 markets with more than eight million listeners. Sybil was known as The Voice of Reason, delivering news, information, and entertainment with honesty, accessibility and integrity, earning the trust of her nationwide audience. She is the distributor and editor of the daily newsletter, What You Need To Know, as well as the host of the podcast with the same name. She can currently be heard delivering news updates daily on The DL Hughley Show as well as Radio One stations across the country.

Nikki Woods is an American radio producer based in Dallas, Texas and best known for her work as the senior producer on the nationally syndicated Tom Joyner Morning Show. She is also a personal branding coach, social media consultant, author, motivational speaker and voice-over artist.  Woods was born in Rock Hill, Missouri, a suburb of St. Louis. She explored many different career options as an adolescent but ultimately decided to study education and subsequently enrolled at Howard University in pursuit of that goal. However, Woods discovered during her time teaching in Missouri and in Jamaica that education was not her true passion and returned home to Rock Hill to weigh other professional options. While back home in Missouri, Nikki began to pay more attention to how people earned their livings and which of those career fields overlapped with her strengths. This period of introspection coincided with Nikki's increased exposure to Magic 108 in St. Louis and sparked her interest in the world of broadcast journalism; Woods was fascinated by the opportunity Disc Jockeys had to regularly speak to so many people on such an intimate level. This newfound interest sent Nikki back to school, this time at St. Francis University in Joliet, IL where she graduated with a BA in journalism and a concentration in broadcast journalism in 1995.   Separate from her own professional endeavors, Woods is an ambassador for Pretty Brown Girls Inc., a movement that empowers and inspires girls and women to celebrate their shades of brown, as well as for Oprah Winfrey's OWN network. Woods was named the ME&WE Inc Woman of the Year in 2013. Nikki lives with her two sons, Tyler and Willis, in Dallas, Texas. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/themichaelcalderinshow/message
