Donnie Simpson honors his brother Harry ~ "My second oldest brother, Harry. . .a fascinating story. . . because of his experiences, he was able to go in and help people that I never could have helped. . .I wanted to mention it because, I honor him. I feel like, maybe that's why God had him in that situation. . .To help people." Donnie Simpson, Washington DC Radio Icon, and TV and Movie Personality in studio interview Andy Ockershausen: This is Andy Ockershausen, and this is Our Town, and I'm so thrilled to be sitting next to a man who, he's the best looking man in radio. I used to have that title but I got old. The Love Bug. Donnie Simpson: The Love Bug? No ... Andy Ockershausen: Donnie Simpson is one of the most beloved radio personalities in Our Town, and still. We don't see each other often, but I have the utmost respect for Donnie. He's a consummate professional. He's been on top of his game not once, but twice, as a ratings later at WPGC and WMMJ over the past four decades. In addition, he's been recognized by BillBoard Magazine as one of the best top radio personalities, and the top program director in the Country. It's been great, Donnie. He's such an important part of Our Town. It's a fiercely competitive business radio, and we know that, but Donnie did something in 1985 that touched my heart and touched me completely. You sent two dozen roses to Harden and Weaver on their 25th anniversary, Donnie. Donnie Simpson Personally Delivered Two Dozen Roses to Harden and Weavers at Their 25th Anniversary Celebration Out of Respect Donnie Simpson: I brought them. I didn't send them. Andy Ockershausen: Donnie, you brought them- Donnie Simpson: I brought them. I left my show and brought them to them. Andy Ockershausen: Oh, I didn't know that. Donnie Simpson: Oh yeah, yeah. I mean, it was a big, heavy glass bowl that I had to put ... It was an awesome arrangement, but no I wasn't- Andy Ockershausen: It's so classy. Donnie Simpson: That would've been disrespectful to me, to have them delivered. They deserve to have them brought. So, I leave my show to bring them. I mean, that's the kind of respect I have for those guys. Andy Ockershausen: Well, you're so right, Donnie, because those guys worked. Donnie Simpson: Oh, yeah. Andy Ockershausen: They worked that job for ... They eventually went to 30 years. It's the same broadcaster. The same time slot. That'll never happen again, Donnie. Donnie Simpson: I know. It's unbelievable what they've accomplished. Andy Ockershausen: But, what you accomplished by doing that, in my eyes, and to the market's eyes, it was so much good publicity on that. But, you've always been a class guy. Donnie Simpson: And you know Andy, I don't have to tell you, you know that was not why it was done. It wasn't done for publicity. Andy Ockershausen: Oh, I know that. You felt it. Donnie Simpson: It was strictly out of respect, you know, that's all it was, out of respect. I have to say this. The same level of respect I had for Harden and Weaver, I have for you. Andy Ockershausen: Oh, gosh. On Andy O's Advice - Stay At An Even Keel Donnie Simpson: Really! You are an amazing man to me. I mean, what you accomplished at WMAL was just unprecedented. You guys had a powerhouse going there, and I owe you ... I want to say this, too. That I owe you. I thank you for something that you gave me. You don't even know this, but you gave me, and it was through an article in the Washington Post. It was just a ratings cycle, but you were talking about ... You made the point that, you don't get too up with the ups, or too down with the downs. You stay at an even keel. I'm telling you, for a young guy on the radio at that time, that was such great knowledge for me. It helped me immensely, through the years, and I never forgot that. I always kept an even keel after that. I was like, he's absolutely right because ratings go up, ratings go down, and you can't get caught up.

You are listening to EPISODE 105 (TOP 10 SHOWS OF 2014) WIT' CHERYL WOOD AND JERRY ROYCE LIVEhttp://www.cherylempowers.com/#!home/mainPageEnthusiastic. Engaging. Innovative.Cheryl Wood is a compelling thought leader and motivational speaker who possesses a deep-rooted passion for supporting the personal development and economic empowerment of women globally. Cheryl has impacted the lives of thousands of women through her life-changing principles of FEARLESS living. She is an award-winning entrepreneur, speaker, author, and business coach who specializes in equipping women to stretch their thinking, expand their expectations, and play bigger. Her message of empowerment has been spotlighted on Fox 5 News, News Channel 8, Radio One, WPGC, WHUR, My Spirit DC, Afro-American Newspaper, and more. Cheryl inspires women to embrace their personal power to visualize, strategize, and execute in order to achieve their life, career, or business goals. Her sheer enthusiasm for achieving what others deem “impossible” is contagious and sparks a flame among her audiences to step outside of their comfort zone, take risks, and remove self-limiting beliefs to become the best version of themselves. Cheryl’s personal story is one of determination and resilience. In her journey, she repeatedly demonstrates the power of nurturing your possibilities and immobilizing fear. Raised as one of three children in a single-parent household in low-income housing in Baltimore, Maryland, Cheryl witnessed poverty and crime on a daily basis. However, from a young age she developed an “internal conviction” that she would not become a product of her environment, but rather she would implement the life skills her mother instilled in her – hard work, integrity, loyalty, drive, and passion – to create a different reality for herself. Immediately after graduating high school, Cheryl jumped into the work force and quickly landed a number of senior administrative positions in Corporate America. For nearly 20 years, she built a career that would have seemed “comfortable” for most. But, it wasn’t enough for Cheryl. Once she married and became a mother of three, her spirit yearned for more. Cheryl fell into a space of being frustrated and unfulfilled in life with a desire to do more, become more, and set an example for her children that it is never too late to pursue your dreams. She ditched the idea of just dreaming about her aspirations and, instead, began to pursue them without thoughts of ever turning back. The results are still astounding to most. In a five year period, Cheryl started a mommy t-shirt business, walked away from her Corporate job, and built an international speaking and coaching business. She made the decision to walk in her greatness without apologies or regrets to become a mission-driven entrepreneur living in her purpose. Cheryl authentically shares the ups and downs of her journey and inspires women to persevere until they reach their goals even in the face of challenges, setbacks, fears and doubts. Cheryl has authored three books, How I Flatlined and Woke Up in 45 Days – A Guide to Empowered Living; The GlamourLESS Side of Entrepreneurship – What They DIDN’T Tell You About Being A Woman In Business; and The Power to Sizzle – Transformational Power Thoughts for Creating The Life You Want. She is a contributing writer for WISE Magazine, Enterprising Women Magazine, and FAHARI Magazine. Cheryl has received numerous awards and recognition for her work including 2014 Success In Stilettos Award; 2013 Willie Jolley Motivational Speaker Award; 2013 Who’s Who In Black Washington, DC; 2013 Who’s Who in Prince George’s County; 2013 Woman of Possibilities Award; 2012 Forty Under Forty Honoree; 2012 Inspirational Entrepreneur of the Year Award; 2011 Small Business Influencer Award; 2010 Business Woman of the Year Award; 2010 Entrepreneurial Spirit Award; and 2010 Governor’s Citation for Excellence in Small Business.
