Laura is a former neonatal intensive care unit charge nurse who suffered a traumatic brain injury in 2021, which only added to her list of major health scares over the previous five years. This prompted her to dig deeper into her past and led to the realization that she had complex post-traumatic stress disorder and needed help. She spent the next year and half exploring all the mental health and trauma healing modalities she could find to heal her mind and body. Laura details this experience in her book, "No, I'm Not Fine. Thank You.," where she openly discusses her journey of identifying her traumas, healing deep wounds, and how she reclaimed her power. You can purchase a copy of her book "No, I'm Not Fine.

Debbie Wilkins Baisden, mom of four boys, was widowed without warning. The depth of pain was only matched by the depth of God’s faithfulness.

In 2014 she established Fit With Deb, an online health resource for Nutrition and Exercise.

In 2009, 31-year-old June Collins had a complete placental abruption with her son. They both survived the birth, but in 2012 at the age of 2 1/2, he passed away. Placing her entire being in jeopardy, by throwing herself into work full throttle she hit rock bottom. She got to a point in her loss, in which she knew she couldn't live the rest of her life like that. June felt so alone and so alienated, as so many people walked away from her. She began reading, in the hope of educating herself about loss and how the mind works. To her surprise, she became pregnant with her daughter and she was born in 2014. She became June's drive, to be more and do more. June did it!!! She is a survivor of child loss. She now helps other mothers rebuild and find purpose in their life.

Through personal strife and no healing support from Falyn’s Western-thinking practitioners to resolve digestive discomfort, insomnia, fatigue, hair loss, muscle soreness, an irregular cycle, and emotional eating, God guided her to integrative modalities. The information from Functional Diagnostic Nutrition was so transformative that she became a certified Practitioner herself. Through diving even deeper into missing pieces in Falyn’s health such as sexual trauma, emotional shutdown, iron dysregulation, and thyroid issues, she knows how frustrating and lonely it can be to constantly feel like there is something missing. Falyn now guides curious and driven health-minded women from feeling fatigued, distasteful about themselves, and disconnected from their power to feeling vital, pleasurable, and emotionally reconnected from within. Falyn’s curiosity to optimize life continues to expand and she lives by the motto “Heal Together, Rise Together.” You can find Falyn at https://www.calendly.com/power-fal or IG: @falynhuntermorningstar email: discover@falynmorningstar.com Please support our t-shirt and hoodie store at: https://www.greatergrowthllc.com You can also support by purchasing a copy of "Back in my Day" by Ashia Wilson at: https://www.amazon.com/gp/r.html?C=2EIU1YSKTC6SW&K=JH8PVXZTQB1G&M=urn:rtn:msg:20230518133011bc4efe5e418b45bb8d59f8cb9130p0na&R=AQVFTO1P5829&T=C&U=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fdp%2FB0C5KQGTVM%3Fref_%3Dpe_3052080_397514860&H=XYDRQEHM5RF0PLEAGYIEQ45IEIGA&ref_=pe_3052080_397514860

In this episode, we hear from Edward Miskie. He is a sole survivor of rare cancer. This year is his 10 year cancer survivorship anniversary, an anniversary he didn’t think he was going to get! So, he is celebrating with his book "Cancer, Musical Theatre, and Other Chronic Illnesses" as featured on INSIDER and ABC (available at Barnes & Noble, Walmart, Booktopia, Indigo, Apple Books, and Amazon). We discuss - You know what's not talked about in the cancer conversation? What happens to your life during and after treatment. Relationships, career, wants, needs... what happens to YOU. You can't go back, so you have to forge forward; the ultimate transformation. Through his own personal story of insanity and indecencies, he talks about all things survival, and getting back on the horse - even if its a different horse. A little about the book - In this fantasy, non-fiction, funny-as-cancer-can-be musical theatre fever dream fueled by chemo, alcohol & heartbreak you will experience the honest, raw & oftentimes hilarious view of the musical star Edward himself, as he navigates his way through the realities of being a full-time cancer patient all while scores of nurses & doctors carelessly belt & fan-kick in his face. Among other things, he is an actor, a singer, songwriter, writer, and producer.
