In August, my mom welcomed a foreign exchange student from Germany into her home—and from day one, he became part of ours, too. We've shared beach days in Port O'Connor, a family vacation to Mexico, and even taught him how to drive (shoutout to Frank for being the brave teacher!). My 10-year-old son absolutely adores him, and saying goodbye is going to be so hard.Today, he joins me on the podcast before flying back home with his parents. We're talking about everything—from the cultural differences he noticed, to his favorite memories, and how this experience has shaped who he's becoming.This is a reminder that family is about so much more than blood—it's about love, shared experiences, and the people who change us for the better.WAYS TO GET INFO ABOUT HOSTING AN EXCHANGE STUDENT ~Email - Dawn.leighton@efexchangeyear.orgWebsite - efexchangeyear.org/iec/dawn-leightonTHANK YOU TO THIS WEEK'S SPONSOR ~

The concert season is surely up on us and I feel like I'm already in full swing!! In this MUSIC INSPIRED episode I'm here to share with you 2 of my most recent musical experiences. I recently attended performances by the Hawaiian Jam Rock band KANEKOA, and looper extraordinaire KELLER WILLIAMS! BOTH are performers NOT to be missed!!  I had never heard of Kanekoa, but decided to take a chance due to a comment from Grateful Dead drummer Bill Kreutzmann. Being a Deadhead myself I was sold when I heard he stated that, "Kanekoa are the Hawaiian Grateful Dead." That's all it took for me to take a chance and man oh man am I SOOOO glad I did!! As you'll hear me say MANY MANY times in this episode, "They are SPECTACULAR!"  In regards to Keller, well I've seen him perform many times BUT had never taken in one of his "Grateful Gospel" concerts and since this one was on Easter Sunday I just knew I had to go!!! Oh what a way to celebrate life!!! He equally, as expected, did not disapoint and neither did his back up band :) Have you heard of neither? Are you familiar with both? Know one but not the other?  Whatever your answer is, spend a little time with me and get pumped about seeing one, the other or BOTH!! OR get inspired to fill up YOUR concert docket for this summer's concert season with YOUR favorite performers!! MAY THE MUSIC NEVER STOP :) **DISCLAIMER: Please take note that any references to ketamine infusions or any other form of medicinal treatments, mainstream or non mainstream, are strictly meant to provide an insight into my own experiences. That being said, should you find yourself curious about anything spoken about on my podcast I firmly suggest speaking to a doctor/psychologist/therapist/family member/psychiatrist/etc. before making any decisions.

Hey friend — today's episode is straight from the heart.

In today's episode of Start Scared, I'm joined by Alicia Long—Registered Nurse, Certified Aesthetic Nurse Specialist, national trainer for Allergan, and the powerhouse CEO of C2 Aesthetics. With over 16 years in the aesthetics industry, Alicia is now expanding her expertise into functional medicine and wellness, helping women look and feel their best from the inside out.We chat all about hormones, weight loss, confidence, and what it really looks like to grow a business while raising babies and taking care of yourself, too. If you've been feeling stuck, exhausted, or like you've lost touch with your own wellness, this conversation is going to remind you that you're not alone—and that it's never too late to start scared and put yourself first.WAYS TO CONNECT WITH ALICIA LONG ~

In this heart-centered episode of Aspire to Lead, I'm joined by globally recognized speaker, educator, and author Angela Maiers to explore the movement that changed everything—#YouMatter. Angela shares the powerful story behind the origin of this global initiative and how a simple affirmation can shift mindsets, unlock potential, and ignite lasting change in students, educators, and communities. We unpack how leaders can go beyond surface-level praise to cultivate environments where everyone feels seen, valued, and empowered. Angela also reveals how her workshops help people rediscover their purpose and reignite their passion for contribution, and we dive into her latest project—M is for Mattering, a science-based picture book designed to embed the language of significance in learners from the start. This episode is less of a conversation and more of a call to remember what we too often forget: that real leadership begins with seeing, hearing, and believing in the people right in front of us. Tune in, take a breath, and get ready to lead like you truly mean it. About Angela Maiers: Futurist. Innovator. Educator. Entrepreneur. Change Maker. Angela Maiers is on a relentless mission to disrupt the status quo and empower individuals everywhere to transform their own world—and the world around them. As the founder of the global movement Choose2Matter, Angela's singular focus is to help people realize their value and potential contribution to creating change, whether in their personal lives or the world at large.   It is fair to say, she leaves no room unchanged. Angela's journey began in 2011 when she delivered a TEDTalk on the power of two simple words that went viral—You Matter!—which catalyzed the creation of Choose2Matter in 2014. What followed was a movement that ignited over a million children across 78,000 classrooms in 100 countries, encouraging them to launch 170 social enterprises and pass 117 laws. As one of the most influential thought leaders in education and transformative thinking, Angela is celebrated for helping businesses, organizations, and industries tackle the global $15 trillion employee engagement crisis. Her work with Fortune 500 companies such as Apple, Microsoft, IBM, and global entities like the U.S. Air Force and West Point have set new standards for creating purpose-driven cultures of motivation and inclusion. Angela's visionary approach has earned her numerous accolades, including being named one of Forbes' Top 5 Edupreneurs to Watch, one of IBM's Top 20 Global Influencers, and one of the Top 100 Women in Technology by Onalytics. She has also been recognized as one of the Top 20 Education Thought Leaders by TrustEd. Angela is the author of nine books, including Genius Matters and Classroom Habitudes, and the forthcoming M is for Mattering. Angela is a much  sought-after keynote speaker, consultant, and researcher who brings a unique blend of education, neuroscience, and innovation to help individuals and organizations cultivate purposeful leadership, meaningful work, and transformative change. Angela's work is grounded in the belief that everyone is built for purpose, deserves dignity, and can create meaningful impact. She has worked with over 50 global companies, educational institutions, nonprofits, and military organizations to implement practical tools for cultivating positive team cultures and igniting the genius within every...

In today's episode, I'm turning the mic on myself and serving up a self-roast that's smoother than my Botoxed forehead.

What if the path that looks like a setback is actually God's setup for something better?In this episode, we dig into Proverbs 14:4 and 15:17 to unpack what it means when wisdom's way isn't flashy, comfortable, or Instagram-worthy—but it's right. From empty barns to humble meals, we'll explore real-life examples where choosing God's way looked worse on the surface but led to deeper peace, purpose, and provision.If you've ever felt behind, overlooked, or unsure if obedience is worth it—this one's for you.THANK YOU TO THIS WEEK'S SPONSOR ~

Matt Phillips has a modern approach to the treatment of runners. It doesn't involve tech or new treatment potocols - the main distinction in Matt's approach is an acknowledgement of the potential impact of a client's mental and wellbeing state, on their running performance and recovery from injury. With this in mind, Matt and I discuss the benefits of this approach to you, as well as your clients. Allowing yourself to take longer to get to the route of the problem, to do less in a session, and to accept that you may be just a part of this person's recovery. We also talked about the magic of collaborating with colleagues so that together you can navigate these new ways of working and of talking about how you work.

Knowing Your Identity and Accepting It   We, as a society, place a lot of value on how we look. A first impression, sort of thing. A "judge a book by the cover" value. But we all know that the physical makeup of a person doesn't give us the whole picture. As women, we are bombarded by makeup ads, weightless products, fashion trends for petite sizes and magazine covers showing 'beautiful" flawless women with perfect features. Our sense of value, for decades, has been wrapped up in our appearance, as if that's all we have to offer. As amputees, we can get lost in feeling worthless or "not enough" based on the world's vantage point, but it isn't accurate. I have been noticing a subtle change, perhaps you are too,  happening in the world on what makes a person "beautiful" or "handsome". However, if you struggle with a sense of worth or are battling who you are now that you are an amputee, you're not alone. So many people deal with this, to the point of being afraid of being out in public, or having a significant other leave them after amputation. STOP! Stop putting yourself through that. Change your thinking and see the positive in this moment. I mean, really, what other choice do you have? It's not like you are going to grow that limb back. It's time to adapt and change, leave the old you in the past and find your worth. This is your moment, you can use this change to reinvent yourself, to challenge yourself, and grow into newness. This is a chance to try new hobbies, to build your character, and to challenge yourself. I want you to believe that you are going through this for something greater. You probably can't see that now, but trust me. When I was in the midst of multiple surgeries and then choosing amputation, I would never have thought I would be making podcasts or creating help groups for women amputees, yet here I am. I open my mind up to the possibilities that could be and tried new things. I was open to whatever was coming my way. Somethings were meant to be, others, not so much, but at least I stayed open-minded.   You are Be-YOU-tiful, just the way you are! So be YOU!!   What we all go through in life, builds us for something else, a greater purpose, a moment that may help someone else in need. And I have found that in helping others I have helped myself. Yep, that's right. By finding a way to use my experiences to help others I have found healing for myself, and a purpose that I never would have thought I had to offer. Without my experiences I could never talk to you about mindset or getting through phantom pains. I add validity because of my experiences. These experiences have given me purpose again, but in a way I had never expected in my life. Embrace this change. Find a way to enjoy this journey. So, who are you? What version of yourself do you dream of, it's all a matter of your desire and mindset. Set your sights and keep an open mind.     It's your time to shine. This week, I want you to repeat positivity into yourself. "I am beautiful/handsome" "I am worthy" "I add value to those around me and my life" "I am more than my body" "I love who I am"       Write these down someplace you'll see. Say them over and over again, each day, all week. Say them and BELIEVE them! You are more than a physical body. You have survived a great storm and are still here. You have purpose and value. Believe these things. Hold your head up high. Smile, even if you have to fake it at times. And don't forget to cry when needed, it can be very healing, just don't linger there too long. Yes, life is a struggle, but you were made to be a warrior. Your story is being written everyday, and isn't finished until you take your last breath. So take a deep breath and get out there. You MATTER!!   I hope you charge forward today like the warriors I know you are. Have a beautifully blessed day,

Have you ever found yourself in a place of questioning your work? Do you feel like all the time and effort and energy and resources you've so diligently poured into what you are doing is not making a difference? Is it not worth it?   I have. I've fought those same negative questions, that same negative thinking. But what do you do when the statistics that you can view don't match your expectations? What do you do when people tell you to quit, to stop wasting your time, that no one cares?   Listen as I help explain why your voice matters, why you should ignore those negative thoughts and negative people, and why you should keep going, because someone does care.   How do I know? Listen as I explain and hopefully encourage you to not give up.               NOTES:   This podcast uses these sounds from freesound: sounds by deleted_user_96253 (https://freesound.org/s/351304/)   Intro/Outro Bumper Music: Evening Melodrama Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
