Voices Of Courage

Today we are honoring our Veterans in appreciation for all that they've done for us, and we'll also be discussing some of the detrimental challenges that they are faced with.   Today is Veterans Day, the anniversary of the signing of the armistice, which brought World War I to an end in 1918. We are dedicating this show to all of our Veterans for their gracious service to us all. Not only will we be reflecting on the incredible strength of our active duty military members and veterans, but we will also be discussing the challenges they face and what we can do to help. My first guest, Devorah Gottesman, has a robust music career that has spanned the globe, entertaining hundreds of thousands of music fans. She shares her story of the true American spirit of kindness, inclusiveness, and ingenuity that opens the heart to celebrate freedom and joy with the sole purpose of unification. Devorah also shares the song that she wrote and sang coast to coast during one of her bicycling fundraising events for non-profits

Today we discuss stepping into your greatness, increasing personal power, and making your business and life shine!   We are all faced with various obstacles and roadblocks that stand in our way, stopping us from moving forward and shining in different areas of our lives. By tapping into our personal power we can show up how we want in life, instead of claiming defeat and accepting a life of mediocracy when things seem too hard. Personal power is something that we all have, but many of us rarely ever tap into it. So what is this force and where does it come from? How do we learn how to tap into it successfully and create the life that we want? I’ll give you a hint… one of the key principles for tapping into our personal power is courage. When we have courage, we’re able to acknowledge and accept what is and isn’t working in our lives. We can speak our truth, try new things, admit defeat when necessary, and learn valuable lessons from our greatest failures. When we have courage, we have the power to become all

Today we discuss the courage to connect with your higher self, increase consciousness, and expand inner wisdom.   In order for us to grow, we have to think outside of the box and take a step back from our small thinking. If you think about it, our “greatest” thinking has got us right where we are today, and it will keep us stuck unless we blow past our limitations. Part of this journey includes connecting with our higher self, which represents unlimited possibilities and helps us see reality clearly. So many of us are playing so small and really not mastering, or even attempting to master, the gifts that we’ve been given. We’re staying within our comfort zones. So much is out there for us, but we have to be able to open our minds and open our hearts if we want to change. Are you willing to change today? Are you willing to grow and take your life to a completely new level? My guest, Laurie Reyon Anderson, is an internationally known Animal Communicator and teacher. She joins me today to talk about a near-death

Today we discuss facing fears and embracing failure to create the life that you want.   Every wealthy entrepreneur that I’ve interviewed over the last 20 years has told me that to be successful you must fail, time and time again. They also made it a point to let me know that if you don’t make courage your partner, you’re probably not going to succeed. It’s not about being brave and taking uncalculated risks. Instead, it’s about being thoughtful, understanding, and taking risks that are well thought out and considered. So, why do so many successful people embrace failure? They do so because failure teaches us our greatest lessons in life. My guest, Steve Rodgers, is a business and lifestyle consultant, an international speaker, and a number one best-selling author. He joins us today to share powerful advice for moving past any challenges in life and business. Steve provides strategies for overcoming fears and obstacles that anyone can apply to ignite their growth and unlock their full potential.   We Discuss:

Today we discuss unlocking the hidden power and true potential of the brain.   I’ve been working in the field of personal development for over 22 years now, and I’ve seen a lot of success gurus come and go. There have been many fads and countless sure-fire methods of growth. Most of these short-lived methods have one thing in common - they’re offering a "quick fix" solution to a much deeper problem. If anyone is telling you that they have the solution to your business or life and it’s only going to take a few minutes or a few sessions, you may want to walk away. I’ve found that success doesn’t come from a quick fix, it comes from setting an intention, developing willpower, and having the right mentors and coaches to help guide you. But, even all of those things require the right mindset and positive self-talk. In order to be successful in your life and in your business, it's crucial that you break free from disempowering thoughts, beliefs, and habits that might be keeping you stuck. But, can you actually choo

Today we discuss the courage to overcome abuse.   In October 1981 the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence launched a "Day of Unity" for those combatting and advocating against violence against women and children. Soon after, the Day of Unity became a full week also devoted to mourning victims that had died at the hands of domestic violence as well as celebrating those that have survived. In 1989, October was designated as National Domestic Violence Awareness Month, which is exactly why I felt that our first show of the month should be dedicated to this very topic. There is a lot of abuse and violence taking place in our nation as we speak, whether it's happening in our communities, in politics, or within our very own homes. It's time for us all to take a stand and learn how to prevent and end domestic violence. My guest, Rosie Aiello, was trapped in an emotionally, mentally, and financially abusive relationship for nearly 25 years. She shares her powerful story of engineering an international escape

Today we discuss the courage to untether our souls and explore a more conscious and powerful way of living.   How many of us have forgotten who we really are? A lot of us live in a place where we have forgotten what we can actually accomplish in this world and how powerful we truly are. If there's anything that defines the 21st century, it's uncertainty. We're uncertain about who we are, what we can do, and how we can tap into the right mindset to achieve success and growth. Are you craving a more natural, spiritual, or balanced life? Maybe you’ve been exploring a more conscious way of living and bringing out your soul qualities of intuition, wisdom, power, and strength. This show is not just about us expanding our presence, it's also about deciding who we are in this world and how we can tune into the power within ourselves. My first guest, Kirsten Asher, is the founder of the FEMethod (Feminine Embodiment Method) and an expert on feminine presence and power. She shares insightful information about how we ca

Today we discuss how to reprogram our thinking, adjust our point of view, and generate a compelling future that's bigger and brighter than we've ever dreamed possible.   When it comes to expanding what's possible in our lives, the first and most important step in the right direction is changing our point of view. But, how do we actually do that? In my own life, I've learned that being of service to others will significantly shift our focus. Our lives become less about ourselves and more devoted towards how we can really contribute and make a difference in other people's lives. My first guest, Jim Justice, is someone that has really inspired me and helped change the way that I deliver my message in the world. Through his personal journey of entrepreneurship, he discovered a parallel path of pursuing his spiritual truth. This journey has led Jim to co-found an amazing app called The Vibe, which serves as a daily dose of mindfulness and guidance helping individuals live a balanced and fulfilled life. My next gue

Today we discuss the courage it takes to overcome our greatest fears and speak out.   Statistically speaking, the number-one fear amongst American people is the fear of public speaking. What's especially unfortunate about this widespread fear is that we all have a message and story to share with the world, but many of us are too fearful to use our own voice. My guest, Tiamo De Vettori, has spoken to over 100,000 people on 250+ stages at conferences and seminars, and combines speaking with original live music to deliver "Keynote Concerts." He shares valuable advice for overcoming the fear of public speaking and tips on how to connect deeply with an audience while remaining true to yourself.   We Discuss: Acknowledging our greatest fears and the true inner dialogue that holds us back Why saying "no" to what doesn't serve us is more powerful than pleasing others Giving others permission to be their authentic selves by modeling it for them How to handle "negative press" from those that may not like you or your m

Today we discuss the courage to revolutionize leadership, lead change successfully in any organization, and take your business image to a completely new level.   My first guest, Jennifer Campbell, is a Senior Change & Transformation Manager, Leadership & Organization Development Professional, and Executive & Relationship Systems Coach. She shares the rules that every leader should follow to make change a success, and provides insight into how to develop managers and leaders for the next generation. My second guest, Ann Landstrom, is a professional photographer with over 20 years of experience and countless award-winning images that she’s captured through her lens. She shares her experience with helping people understand their brand, shine in photographs, and take their life and business to a whole new level.   We Discuss: How corporate America has changed over the years and where it stands today Why most companies that remain hierarchical-based versus flat-based won’t survive What we need to know

Today we discuss the principles of creating success, wealth, and the best version of ourselves.   It seems like we're always chasing after something in our lives, whether it's money, fame, success, or happiness. But, what's the essence behind that and what is this search really all about? What's actually going on inside of us? We're going 90 miles per hour when what we really need to do is slow down and tune into a deeper part of ourselves so that we can understand who we truly are at our core. My first guest, Chris Jaeb, co-founded AudioNet, an internet-based aggregator of digital media, which was sold to Yahoo just four years later for $5.4 billion. Throughout his time spent as an entrepreneur, he has learned the spirit of competition, how to lose gracefully, and most importantly, how to learn from his mistakes. Chris shares the greatest influences of his high-level success, from getting comfortable with rejection to shifting his mindset. My second guest, Ann Landstrom, is a professional photographer with o

Today we discuss connecting deeply with our inner fire and living our lives to the max.   It's important to know that if you're stuck in any area of your life, whether it's in your personal life or your business, there are solutions to everything. In fact, there are actually infinite solutions to our truly limited problems. My two guests today share how we can all start living our lives to the fullest. My first guest, Eduardo Flores, spent over 20 years as a monk and is now helping people with their health and vitality. He shares some of the ingredients for success that he's found in his journey, along with the number one thing that holds people back from taking their life to the max. My second guest, Mike Lebrun, has been an entrepreneur since he was 19 years old. Today, he shares his journey with Max International and shares the life-changing benefits of Max's safe and effective science and supplements that support the natural production of glutathione and a healthier lifestyle.   We Discuss: Connecting de

Today we discuss the life-changing awareness, purpose, and power that come from forgiveness.   The ability to forgive deeply allows us to live more balanced lives and become liberated from energetic blocks and wounds from the past. We have the power within us to change everything, but first, we have to change our minds and how we see things. My guest, Azim Khamisa, shares his inspirational journey and message of forgiveness, peace, and hope. Following the loss of his only son, Tariq, due to a senseless, gang-related murder, Azim chose the path of forgiveness and compassion rather than revenge and bitterness. He shares his 3-step process of forgiveness, as well as a process for redemption that sets people free to enjoy a life full of richness and meaning.   We Discuss: Symptoms that often stem from a lack of forgiveness and how they impact us The 6 critical areas of forgiveness that need to be considered Thinking about forgiveness differently and addressing underlying issues Letting go of the weakness that's

Today we discuss how to ignite our power, purpose, and passion so that we can reach our highest potential in life.   How do we get "unstuck" in all areas of our lives? The simple answer is, we have to do the work! My two guests today share exactly what that work is and how doing it can change everything! Seasoned Marriage and Family Therapist, Relationship Coach, and Author, Kristine Grant, shares her powerful expertise in writing inspired letters from the heart that will transition your relationships with anyone and everyone. Relationship Coach, Reiki Master, and Yoga Instructor, Caroline Andrews, shares valuable insight on how to transition your life by being more present with yourself and tuning into your sensuality, purpose, and passion.    We Discuss: What often keeps people stuck and not reaching their full potential Asking what versus how questions to get the answers we're looking for Transitioning out of the bad habits that are limiting our success Getting stuck in emotional reactivity and living fro

Today we discuss facing challenges head-on and learning how to overcome them, whether they are in business, relationships, health, or our overall introspection. I have two great guests today that share their journeys along with the time, effort, and energy that led them to bring their ideas, dreams, and visions to fruition and share them with the world. Don Meredith, who among many things is an author, artist, actor, and financial advisor, has been faced with many challenges in his life. He shares powerful insight on the importance of planning on our own self-sabotaging that can take place during our path to success, and discusses strategies for living an outstanding life. Rick Carlton, Founder of SevaChild International, started his remarkably successful non-profit organization about eight years ago with virtually no money, no prior experience, and very few resources. He shares how the organization is now making an impact on the lives of many young children in India by protecting them from disease and supply

She talks about the different challenges that stop a lot of people from pursuing their dreams, and how creating new habits and refocusing your energy on what you want instead of what you don’t want can completely change your life.   We Discuss: Becoming empowered by redefi

Today we discuss changing the mind through transformative thinking to increase your wealth, happiness, and create a stress-free life.   Special guest Brenda J. Flowers is an expert in helping people understand the mental, emotional, and physical blocks that keep us stuck and unable to accomplish what we want in life.

What makes Avatar different from any other personal development program The biggest questions that people have when they dive into personal development

Today I want to talk about the importance of changing the conversations in your life.   Why do we listen to various opinions on endless subjects, and why are we willing to fill our minds with information that doesn't really apply to our lives? We don't need more information, we need more wisdom. It seems like it's so difficult for us to really be ourselves and transform our lives in ways we've only imagined. Wouldn't you like the keys to understanding how to do just that?   Today I Discuss: Choosing wisdom over more information and learning how to take action The illusion of our limitations from the outer world and why we need to go within Changing the conversation in your own mind and stepping into your power Tuning into what moves you and what you're most passionate about Why it's difficult to be ourselves and transform our lives What freedom means and how you can use it to connect deeply with yourself Letting go of thoughts that bring forth negative emotions The defining principles to transform your life
