Lauri's Lemonade Stand

Money, A Love Story may have been Kate’s first book, but Kate is up to so much more these days including launching the new Origin Collective (visit origincollective.com) and working on another book to come out in 2019!  I think the best thing I learned about Kate is that she is FOR REAL!  She is not claiming to know everything, but is sincere in sharing what she has learned in such a loving and supportive way that others are following!  Learning about Kate has made me a fan and a follower and I hope to some day add friend to that list!  Check out more about Kate on her website, katenorthrup.com and enjoy this fun, uplifting, inspiring episode!

Emotional Eating has met it’s match!  Samantha Russell, or “Sam” as she likes to be referred to is an Eating Psychology Coach who works with women of all shapes and sizes in addressing their emotional eating challenges.  YOU ARE NOT BROKEN.  Therefore, you don’t need to be fixed.  Healing is her preferred method and she has a knowledge base, kindness, and skills to help you on your journey.  Listen the podcast, take advantage of her Freebies on livethewhole.com and then I dare you to not want more from this incredible woman.

World 24-Hour Champion in mountain bike racing (along with numerous other mountain bike wins) and Whole Food Plant-Based Eater, Sonya Looney believes in being Brave and Doing Epic Shit.  In fact, it’s her slogan that she has used as her personal mantra for years!  Pushing past boundaries, being courageous in all aspects of life, her daily gratitude practice, her anti-inflammatory diet, not to mention her amazing love life with her dear husband Matt will inspire and empower you.  You might not feel up to riding a 24-hour, multi-day, 50-mile, or 100-mile mountain bike race after listening to this podcast, but there is no doubt you will smile and feel better for having listened.  Want more Looney?  Visit sonyalooney.com or visit Sonya on all of her highly active social media sites!  

Love that Simi Botic felt honored that if my dog snored under my desk during the interview (hubby out of town and puppies were with me on recording day) that she would be deeply honored.  It shows the true character of Simi as what I learned of her to be…a woman of character, kindness, and beauty.  Her story from corporate attorney to her own craziness around body image to the deep desire to help other women has me wanting to just hang out with her more often.  Luckily, you can hang out with her here on LLS for the next hour…enjoy!  

Miss America 1985 has kissed her share of frogs!  Now, I don’t mean that as a physical truism of course, but Sharlene Hawkes is author of the book, “Kissing a Frog” - Finding Comfort Outside of Your Comfort Zone which I have read and highly recommend.  Quoted as saying, "I decided when I was a girl I would never not do something because I was afraid”, she has lived by this law her entire life claiming nothing goes as planned, but she is the better for it.  Find out how you can replace the word “change” with “adventure”, that anything can be learned given “time and patience” and how you can take your stagnant pond to a growing, thriving ecosystem of amazing life!  

Steampunk Romance is Nancy’s new groove of writing and I am in love!  I read her first quest into this new series called Beauty and the Clockwork Beast and can’t wait for her next steampunk in 2018.  But don’t wait to read this and other Proper Romance novels like my favorite, My Fair Gentleman in stores now!  Nancy’s imagination and her ability to take your emotions (ALL of your emotions) to another level is astounding.  The mystery and suspense, the love and passion, the humorous and grit will all leave you on the edge of your seat and when you’re done?…begging for more.  Dive into the world of all things Nancy Campbell Allen in this week’s amazing interview of this incredibly talented author.  

Hot Seat Time! Listen to this week’s episode with Kate Arms from Signal Fire Coaching as she puts me in the hotseat for one of her FREE 60-Minute Powerful Coaching Conversations that she offers on her website. Kate left me feeling completely at peace, grounded, and at the same time driven. She took me from my scattered thoughts of inefficiency to giving me ONE insight WITH an action plan to make it happen. She even gave me a date to get it done by. Pretty sure I’m going to hire her as my coach in case you’re wondering after you listen to the interview. See how Kate can help you realize your dreams…I’m not kidding or blowing smoke!  Within one hour of speaking to Kate I had already recommended her to two other people I care about. Enjoy this episode (and my vulnerability) as you watch Kate guide me towards my dreams one step at a time.

Happy Days and Laverne and Shirley…don’t you just love those shows?  I own the entire 8 season collection of Laverne and Shirley and one thing I noticed was that whenever The Fonz cameo’ed on Laverne and Shirley or vice versa, BOTH sitcoms aired the program for that season.  Elizabeth Johnston of Own Your Creativity was a guest on LLS on Episode #10 and just a month ago I was able to be interviewed on her podcast and thought - lightbulb!  Let’s pull a Laverne & Shirley and share our episodes!  So here you have it…an in depth discussion about Lauri’s Lemonade Stand as aired on Elizabeth’s podcast, Own Your Creativity on March 10th, 2017.  Enjoy!

Hilda is what convinced me to have Coach Jennie on the show.  I LOVE that Coach Jennie has given a name to that dumb little voice in our heads that says, “I Can’t, I Shouldn’t, I Don’t Know, or my favorite, I Don’t Wanna”.  Coach Jennie does not wrap up her coaching skills in a warm fuzzy…she takes her signature cathartic shoves and pushes you outside of your comfort zone to realize our full potential in whatever field of business or personal passion you are pursuing.  Join the movement!  #HildaMustBeStopped!
