Maren is a business evolver with a passion for excellence and a drive to help successful leaders wake up and up-level their lives and their businesses.
Her triple career as a champion dancer, preeminent educator and serial entrepreneur coalesced into “Dance With Life,"; a one-of-kind program transforms the old school ‘push-your-way-through-to-get-ahead’ business paradigm to one of flow and grace.
After years of striving and pushing to attain success, Maren bridged the gap between her spiritual life and business life to connect to a place of deep listening and limitless flow. This resulted in greater success than striving ever produced, accompanied by inner peace and congruence and a commitment to share what she learned.
Maren is dedicated to helping leaders from every walk of life create a deeper, richer conversation with life and step into playing a bigger game. She revels in working with fellow travelers who know, like she did, “that there is a better way.”

Clearly Keto for Healthy Brain Aging and Alzheimer's Prevention, A Conversation with Dr. Mary Newport (Episode #74)
Clearly Keto for Healthy Brain Aging and Alzheimer's Prevention, A Conversation with Dr. Mary Newport (Episode #74)
Mary Newport, M.D. was born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio, and graduated from Xavier University (humanities and pre-medicine) and the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine. She trained in pediatrics at Children’s Hospital Medical Center in Cincinnati, Ohio, and in neonatology at the Medical University Hospital in Charleston, South Carolina, and is board certified in pediatrics and neonatology, the care of sick and premature newborns. She practiced neonatology for thirty years and was the founding medical director for two newborn intensive care units in the Tampa Bay area of Florida. More recently, she practiced at the opposite end of the spectrum, providing hospice care, and, more recently, health risk assessments. In 2008, she implemented a ketogenic nutritional intervention with coconut and medium-chain triglyceride oil that dramatically helped her husband Steve Newport, who had early-onset Alzheimer’s disease. In 2010, she guided her husband through the first pilot study of the beta-hydroxybutyrate/butanediol ketone ester in a person with Alzheimer’s and co-authored a case report published in Alzheimer’s and Dementia in 2015 with Dr. Richard Veech and others. Her husband lost his battle with Alzheimer’s and Lewy Body dementia in 2016 and Dr. Newport carries on his legacy as an author of three books and an international speaker on ketones as an alternative fuel for the brain. Dr. Newport is a Certified Ketogenic Nutrition Specialist through the American Society of Nutrition. Her fourth book (available November 2022), Clearly Keto for Healthy Brain Aging and Alzheimer’s Prevention, focuses on a whole food ketogenic Mediterranean-style diet, ketogenic strategies, and other lifestyle modifications to help prevent or slow down the progression of Alzheimer’s and other neurological conditions.

Be Healthy Enough, A Conversation with Fitness Solopreneur Amy Van Liew (Episode #70)
Even as those aches and pains of age can start to creep in, Amy helps women over 50 get moving through online workouts designed for just what we need - strength, low-impact cardio, Pilates, balance, posture, and more.
What’s different from traditional workouts (often geared toward people in their 30s) is that hers will leave you feeling good, not beat up. That way, you can “be healthy…enough” to do all the things you love to do in life!
After retiring from a 26-year career as an Engineering Program Manager, Amy carved out a space in her life to pursue a greater passion for helping others. She knows it takes time and effort to be healthy without aggravating the aches and pains that naturally come with age. She pursued extended education to focus specifically on what women over 50 struggle with including a certification in Integrative Nutrition, Menopause, and Osteoporosis Fitness, Myofascial Release using the MELT Method, Corrective Exercise with The Biomechanics Method and has just completed an intense Pelvis Pro course with Dr. Sarah Duvall.
Along with filming new content for her digital fitness studio, Amy loves spending time at home with her husband and 2 furry kids, and continually expanding how many women over 50 she helps get moving and feeling better!

Finding Your Aloha Spirit & Making Conscious Connections. A conversation with Kari Hendler - Part 2 of 2, (Episode #68)
Finding Your Aloha Spirit & Making Conscious Connections. A conversation with Kari Hendler - Part 2 of 2, (Episode #68)
Kari Hendler is a California native, who spent thirty-five years working in the sitcom television world, primarily as a Script Supervisor. She’s worked on some legendary TV shows, including “Hot In Cleveland”, “Frasier”, “Reba”, “The Golden Girls”, “Roseanne” and “Two Guys, A Girl and A Pizza Place” (which starred a young and then-unknown Ryan Reynolds).
When she wasn’t on a Hollywood soundstage, Kari worked at her second career as a photographer and magazine writer.
In that arena, she is especially known for photographing magicians and live events for various publications, and writing articles about Tiki and Hawaiian culture.
For nine years, she was a writer, photographer and the assistant editor of the popular, sub-culture "Tiki Magazine”, and she has been a staff photographer for both Genii and Magic magazines for almost twenty years.
In fact, her love of the art of magic motivated her to create her ongoing magic/art/history project called, “Nothing Up Their Sleeves”, where she has cast the hands of some of the greatest magicians of our time, with the hope that this still-growing collection will eventually find a permanent exhibition space where it might inspire future magicians and magic fans.
Her other areas of passionate enthusiasm include Disneyland (she’s a former Disneyland “cast member”) and Disney’s Imagineering history.
She also loves great architecture and the science surrounding environmental protection and preservation.
One of her favorite mottos is, “The ultimate fan transcends fandom and does it herself” — which is a phrase she uses to explain why she actively participates in many of the things that interest her.
Kari’s feeling is if you’re really a fan of something, try going beyond just being a fan and actually get involved in it.
Learn about it AND try to add your own special abilities to that thing you love by creating something in that area.
This mantra of hers makes for a full life…
TOO full at times… which is why mindfulness and meditation has been something Kari has been learning about and practicing in recent years.

Kari’s feeling is if you’re really a fan of something, try going beyond just being a fan and actually get involved in it.
Learn about it AND try to add your own special abilities to that thing you love by creating something in that area.
This mantra of hers makes for a full life…
TOO full at times… which is why mindfulness and meditation has been something Kari has been learning about and practicing in recent years.

About the Podcast Guest:
At 24, Stephanie watched as her life fell apart. Her body was in pain, her mind was burnt out and her heart was broken. With less than $100, and with help from friends, she gathered the courage to move thousands of miles away to start a new life and open her first business.

For over 30 years she has helped individuals and teams discover their value, strengthen their potential, and lead from the heart. Her unique style brings passion and guidance to explore the spiritual, emotional, and mental underpinnings to release chronic tension, stress, and pain that keep us from living a meaningful inspired life.

Movement for Life, A Discussion with Foundation Fitness Trainer & Motivator, Coach Tisha (Episode #54)
About the Podcast Guest:
Tish has been a fitness industry professional since 1992.
She is a Certified Personal Trainer, a Foundation Training Level 1 Instructor, and is certified in TRX, Kettlebell, Gravity Training, and Cycling.
Like many movement professionals, Tisha has learned to listen to her body.
“I spent my 20’s and 30’s “killing it” as an instructor
and triathlete and then my body started sending me
signals.”
The balance was gone! She realized she had overtrained
and ignored so many other aspects of her wellness.
This is when she decided to take a huge step back and create a
more complete wellness approach that would take her well into her 80’s.
She is now on a mission to help others truly tune into their body, and help facilitate others on their physical transformation from pain to performance.
Tish believes that “even the most extreme athletes understand the importance of “balance” and how we can still achieve our goals while taking time to focus on the importance of a balanced life and healthy body.”
One of Tisha’s area specializations includes Foundation Training which is a simple solution to change the way you move and correct imbalances caused by modern habits.
This methodology was designed by researching the movement habits of top athletes and first responders. This form of training provides building blocks for lifelong fitness, either as a stand-alone program for pain relief or a jumping-off point for more advanced exercise.

The Spiritual Quest of Yogini Janine through an Epic Solo-Hike (Episode #52)
The Spiritual Quest of Yogini Janine through an Epic Solo-Hike (Episode #52)
About the Podcast Guest:
Janine is a San Diego-based yoga instructor who had always enjoyed the outdoors. When she first moved to California she was immediately drawn to the stunning views of the mountains accessible through local hiking trails.
Early on she became aware of and deeply curious about the Pacific Crest Trail.
The more she learned about this trail, the more she became convinced that she would undertake this backpacking adventure which spans 2,650 miles, from Canada to Mexico.
Janine goes on to accomplish this epic trail in 5 months with very few “zero days” and replenishing moments.
For Janine, this deeply challenging hike would become the Spiritual Quest that would test her on every level.
This journey would at times feel deeply isolating and lonely. During those difficult moments, she would frequently remind herself of the Rumi quote, “Whenever you are alone, remind yourself that God has sent everyone else away so that there is only you and Him.”
Most movement methods require bringing attention to our body. When Janine decided to take on the most epic hiking adventure of her life, she knew she’d need to train her body for focused attention, endurance, strength, and stamina.
Her years of yoga training became instrumental in aligning her mind, body, and breath as she prepare for her hike.
This year, in the summer of 2022, she will embark on the final 650+ miles in Northern CA (which was closed last year due to fires).
In between thru-hikes, you can find Janine in North County San Diego gyms and studios and online teaching a wide variety of yoga styles. She believes every person can accomplish greatness, be it on the trail or in normal life.

Savoring a Disholicious Life as a Wine Viticulturist, a Conversation with Kasey Knose on Living her Passion. (Episode #46)
Savoring a Disholicious Life as a Wine Viticulturist, a Conversation with Kasey Knose on Living her Passion. (Episode #46)
Kasey Knose lives in Carlsbad, California with her husband Bill, her two sons, Liam and Connell, and their dog Lola. She served in the US Marine Corps for four years as an Air Traffic Controller before being honorably discharged and working in the mortgage industry for 13 years as a Senior Loan Processor and Underwriter. She worked for Wells Fargo Home Mortgage for several years before their loan volume slowed and she was laid off with many of her co-workers. At that time her husband ran a successful business and together they decided that Kasey would stay home to figure out what it was that brought her joy. Kasey knew that she wanted to work in the culinary world, but she just wasn’t sure which direction to go.
So, she started a food and wine blog called Disholicious and through that blog, she met several people in the industry. One of those people was wine sommelier, Meghan Vergara of Veritas Consultants. In working with Meghan, Kasey met other people in the wine industry and she was invited to join The Women’s Wine Alliance of San Diego.
As a member of the Women’s Wine Alliance, Kasey was able to attend the SommCon in San Diego. While attending that conference, Kasey sat in on a Women in Wine event. That’s when Kasey realized that she wanted to work in the wine industry. She went home and talked with her husband about it. She decided to start the Viticulture and Enology program at MiraCosta College to complete an Associate’s Degree and she turned to the Wine and Spirits Trust of London and the Napa Valley Wine Academy to complete her WSET in wine certifications.
Kasey is now six classes away from graduating from MiraCosta College and she is about to start her level three WSET with the Napa Valley Wine Academy. After graduating, Kasey looks forward to starting a new career in wine that brings her more joy.

The Savvy Teacher on her Second Act, A Conversation with Swati Patel Mangat (Episode #44)
The Savvy Teacher on her Second Act, A Conversation with Swati Patel Mangat (Episode #44)
Swati studied Economics in college, and after graduating in 1993, she worked as an investment advisor trading stocks and bonds. She also filed payroll taxes for national corporations. She aimed to provide the best service for her clients, cultivate positive relationships, and work with teams to streamline processes. She received an award for customer satisfaction prompted by letters of gratitude from her clients and co-workers.
During this period Swati would get married, and give birth to two beautiful girls. Around this time she chose to be a stay-at-home mom. As a hands-on mom with her daughter’s reading and scholastics, Swati discovered she had a natural love for children and teaching. As her girls got a bit older, and with other challenging life circumstances, she was faced with the need to return to work. As she considered her options as a career path, she felt a new calling. She realized that she longed for a more meaningful career, where she could continue being near children and teaching.
So, Swati decided to pursue her teaching credentials. With great determination, Swati earned her teaching credential and landed a job at her dream school in 2014. She went on to earn a Gifted and Talented Education (GATE) certification and was able to then land her dream job of teaching gifted learners. A few years later, she was awarded Teacher of the Year by her colleagues.
During the pandemic, Swati taught online, and also went into the classroom to teach in person. This difficult time solidified her belief that helping children develop not only their academic abilities, but their mindfulness and social skills, was what she was meant to do.
Swati believes that discipline, mindfulness, and positivity are the keys to a balanced life. She knows that there is always a shining light waiting for her after a difficult time has passed and that anything worth doing will be challenging. She takes time to care for herself, her family, her friends, and her students. She forgives herself for her mistakes and looks for lessons and ways to improve every day. She loves the quote, “Mistakes are proof that you are trying.”

Dare to Dream Big, A Conversation with Kindhearted Badass Founders, Jenine Kenna & Heather Compton (Episode #42)
Dare to Dream Big, A Conversation with Kindhearted Badass Founders, Jenine Kenna & Heather Compton (Episode #42)
Hey Sweet Souls,
Thanks for tuning in!
In today's conversation, as part of our season of Intentional living, we dive into 2nd acts with founders of Kindhearted Badass Jenine Kenna and Heather Compton.
Jenine and Heather were instantly drawn to each other and developed an amazing relationship that can be felt throughout their collaborations. They absolutely adore each other and complement each other beautifully in this chapter of their lives.
In fact, here’s What Heather has to say about Jenine...
Jenine is A true Kindhearted Badass. She is a champion of women, especially mothers. A consummate cheerleader, she’s driven to show the rest of us our potential, and encourage us to fight for our own personal “more”. She’s a rebel with a cause, and I feel so lucky to get to do life alongside her. Jenine is the best friend you’ve always wanted, and now (through the Kindhearted Badass Crew) get to have.
And here’s what Jenine has to say about Heather... Ever meet someone who will always call you out on your sh!t, but do it in a way that empowers you instead of making you feel bad about yourself? That's Heather. She’s the original Kindhearted Badass and her passion for lifting people up and encouraging others to believe in themselves, is unmatched. Heather is the woman you've always wanted to be on a team with, and now (through the Kindhearted Badass Crew) you get to be.

Underrepresented Modern Women on Multiculturalism & Race, A Conversation with Hosts of Life in our Skin, Anahita Champion & Lisa Harris (Episode #38)
Underrepresented Modern Women on Multiculturalism & Race, A Conversation with Hosts of Life in our Skin, Anahita Champion & Lisa Harris (Episode #38)
Lisa and Anahita are a dynamic duo. Together they offer authentic stories of underrepresented women in their podcast Life in Our Skin. This powerfully raw podcast offers candid conversations between women who find themselves between white and black communities.
Their podcast mindfully illuminates topics including identity, culture, race, and relationships. By creating mindful awareness on these topics they are serving as champions for creating connections.
Their connection with each other is a magical combination of diversity, rich cultural history, and authentic life experiences that illustrates that all of us have more similarities than differences.
In our podcast conversation with them, we felt we were having a conversation with two old friends reflecting on our personal (and sometimes amusing) stories of being raised within multi-cultures, and navigating our way into adulthood.
A bit more about Lisa Harris:
Diversity and inclusivity are at the core of Lisa’s existence.
As a multi-racial woman, raised by an immigrant mother from the Philippines and a white father with Native American roots, Lisa’s life experience, and perspective are multi-layered. She discovered at an early age that she never quite fit in anywhere, yet she was home everywhere.
From racial diversity to growing up in a predominately white, rural Midwestern town to being a first-generation college graduate to managing over $250M at the height of her corporate career to publishing a book and founding her own business, Lisa seamlessly walks with a foot in many different worlds and believes our stories are what heals and connects us.
Lisa is a mother, wife, sister, and friend whose living her purpose. Personally and professionally, Lisa values authenticity, vulnerability, and connection in her pursuit to build bridges and spread love through the lens of our stories.
Lisa is currently the owner and founder of Lisa Harris & Company, a personal development company that connects guides, and transforms women’s lives through the power of storytelling.
Lisa’s mission is to help women shift narratives and reclaim their personal power through the lens of their own life stories.
A bit more about Anahita Champion:
Born into a deeply rooted and rich historic Persian culture, Anahita has paved a way for herself after her family immigrated to the U.S when she was just two years old. Growing up as a Persian-American has allowed her to further her experiences and diversify connections socially, culturally, and professionally. She takes pride in her cultural background as she values the camaraderie, hospitality, and respectable community she comes from.
From childhood, Anahita has had a passion for being in the entertainment limelight. From a very young age, she has enjoyed spending time with her cousins, and immersing herself in large family gatherings.
Achieving her Master’s of Arts degree in Strategic Communication from the University of Minnesota School of Journalism and Mass Communication, Anahita has found her niche in an area that she is most passionate about and on the path of public relations and marketing.
Observing her father’s and close family members’ entrepreneurial mindset, influenced her own creative, strategic, forward-thinking as well family-centric mentality. She has integrated these core values with several platforms she owns or co-founded, including MomBoss Meet-Up which echos her deep passion for supporting fellow women & mom-entrepreneurs.

Eco-conscious Lifestyle Through Sustainable Jewelry Design, A Conversation with Alessandra Thornton (Episode #34)
Eco-conscious Lifestyle Through Sustainable Jewelry Design, A Conversation with Alessandra Thornton (Episode #34)
Alessandra is the owner and founder of Allie Tagua Jewelry, a Sustainable Jewelry Business.
Her jewelry much like her personality echos her uniqueness, passion, and authenticity.
Allie creates bold, colorful eco jewels, that give back to the environment. Materials used to create the jewelry are repurposed natural elements that include Tagua Nut, Acacia Berry, Pambil Seeds, and Orange Peel to name a few.
Her professional journey started in Ecuador. She was once a journalist by profession, an archeologist by degree, and an ecologist by heart.
When she turned 33 she bravely moved to the United States to start a new chapter of her life as a jewelry artist and designer of eco-jewelry, giving back to her community and supporting rainforest conservation.
As a designer of organic jewelry has found a way to fuse her passion for jewelry making with her desire to repurpose natural resources while creating employment for indigenous locals.
One of her visits along with the coastal towns in Ecuador coincided with when the rivers were heavily flooded after a strong El Nino Season.
In that visit, she had her ‘Aha!’ moment, which is when she decided to dedicate her life to the making and promotion of rainforest Tagua Nuts specifically along the coast of Manabi, Ecuador. The rains were forcing the loss of the precious Tagua Nuts of the palm trees. At that specific moment, she discovered her mission. She decided to help provide locals in the rural areas during the rainy season, with another way to generate income. So she travels to that area to train locals to create the jewels, so they have employment. She believes her customers feel empowered with her statement jewels, knowing that 10% of her sales also give back to education to orphan girls in Ecuador.
Allesandra has intentionally designed her business and personal life to live an eco-conscious life.
Her travels to gather materials for her jewelry have taken her into deep spots in the Amazon forest. She has educated herself about the threats to preserved areas from the oil industry and triggering climate change.
What awakens her heart is to mindfully listen to the sounds of the rainforest in the early evening. Her fondest memories of her travels include listening to the orchestra of frogs, insects, wild cats through the night, and awakening in the morning to the sounds of monkeys which sound like boisterous wind or a little hurricane echoing deep from the rainforest.
“Organic Jewelry by Allie” is a labor of love to create awareness about eco-friendly tagua nut jewels.
“I believe in the end, the value of the person is not in how many stocks has in the market or in the number of zeros in the bank account but in the many lives that person touched in a positive way.”
To her customers, Allie always says "It's about finding happiness in little things like accessorizing your outfit. I want you to smile any time you wear my jewels, if my jewelry has the power to make you smile, feel confident, and happy to be helping to create a better world for others then I have accomplished my mission in life.”

Simple Changes for Significant Environmental Impact, A Conversation with Tisha Gehringer (Episode #33)
Simple Changes for Significant Environmental Impact, A Conversation with Tisha Gehringer (Episode #33)
Tisha is the epitome of someone who intentionally lives to make positive changes for our earth, and those around her.
A resident of Carlsbad California, Tisha currently works for the Carlsbad Village Association and has spent the majority of her career in the Fitness Industry. On her own time, she spearheads grassroots efforts to make a positive impact on our environment. Her mission is to help people see the most simple things they can do to make changes.
Tisha was originally in school for law and changed course after working in fitness during school and seeing the effect she could have in this part of people’s lives. Over the years as she coached other women, she noticed women who struggled to try to make changes in their life, and her
empathy grew stronger.
This experience for her translated into her learning that the smallest things all start to add up. And she understood that it takes time and patience and effort to make meaningful changes; so you just have to be in it for the long haul.
It is from this experience became the catalyst for her passion for making impactful changes on how we treat our environment, our animals, and other human beings in general.
Tisha believes in micro-changes for big impact.

She has created a brand called HOW TO LIFE®. which is geared toward teaching younger, newer adults how to maneuver through adulthood more easily. In short, she helps to take the fear out of “adulting”!
She has a podcast called HOW TO LIFE for audio guidance and inspiration, and a YouTube channel of the same name that features short video tutorials called Mominars® that show how to perform basic life skills.
She likes to think of this content as life skills for students of all ages.
In her “adult” life so far, Dr. Jaget has been a nationally ranked NCAA Division I tennis player, a chiropractor, a business owner, a wife, a mother of four amazing, accomplished children, a healer, a teacher, dabbled in boxing, marksmanship, ballroom dancing, and is most recently, playing senior pro pickleball, which she loves!
HOW TO LIFE is her “second act” and she is having a great time producing these adulting classes and content to help motivate and inspire others!

The Positive Mindful Movement of SPI Media Community, Shaped by SPI's Director of Community Experience, Jillian Benbow (Episode #30)
The Positive Mindful Movement of SPI Media Community, Shaped by SPI's Director of Community Experience, Jillian Benbow (Episode #30)
Jillian early on recognized the nagging feeling in her heart when she realized she wanted to serve humanity in a bigger way by using skills to build and support communities. She became a mom at a young age, which influenced many of her life choices, particularly around work-life balance. Through deep soul searching, she became aware of what gave her life purpose. Personally and professionally she intentionally paused to learn the stories of others, and she realized those stories connect us. She also mindfully learned to pause and notice precious moments that connected her to nature. It’s no surprise that her professional life is about helping the community of like-minded people make meaningful connections.
With over a decade of experience as a digital community expert, she helps business owners craft a community experience that is safe, valuable, and fun. She is currently the Senior Community Experience Manager at SPI Media, and hosts the host of the Podcast ‘ Community Experience’.
Jilian’s mantra is ‘Dare to Live the Life you Have Dreamed for Yourself’.

How '100 Epic Days' Created a Catalyst for Change, Conversation with Founder of Epic Bones, Leeane Brennan (Episode #29)
How '100 Epic Days' Created a Catalyst for Change, Conversation with Founder of Epic Bones, Leeane Brennan (Episode #29)
Leeanne is an illustrator, animator, and mindset motivator living in North Carolina. She creates sensitive, whimsical art to help unblock limiting beliefs and manifest a life you can fall in love with. She runs programs to help people start a goal, follow-through, and become the type of person that stays consistent.
She practices "gentle achievement" which celebrates the twisting, nonlinear, slow, unknown path of following the heart.
For Leeanne, only 3 years ago, the thought of creating consistent personal artwork in sporadic bursts of time throughout the day while caring for little kids, would have seemed absolutely impossible. After discovering mindfulness and manifestation and going down the personal development rabbit hole, She has completely changed how she views her life and what is possible.
Her background in animation from the Rhode Island School of Design and many years working in video games and the innovation consultancy world as a freelance illustrator/motion designer has prepared her for this particular moment in her life where she is ready to use her skills to tap into her subconscious to explain concepts around manifestation and mindset in a new way.
The art and programs that she has created are a reflection of all that she is learning as she continues to do the deep inner work that is healing her soul. She strives to remind people that our minds are malleable and capable of changing our reality. In her words “Our dreams are already true.”

On Being Grateful for Accessing Stillness: Musings on Gratitude & Guided Meditation with Meditation Coach Shilpa (Episode # 13)
On Being Grateful for Accessing Stillness: Musings on Gratitude & Guided Meditation with Meditation Coach Shilpa (Episode # 13)
On Being Grateful for Accessing Stillness
Have you noticed that when you are present in the now with a feeling of gratitude, you tap into this peaceful feeling of stillness?
Our lives are full of things to be grateful for. This month’s podcast series has been on Holistic Wellness. This theme has allowed me to reflect on the concept of how or what makes me feel whole.
And on this Thanksgiving Day, I started my day acknowledging the simple and even silly things that I am immensely grateful for that make my body-mind-and soul feel whole and alive. For example, upon waking up today I felt grateful for my ability to wiggle my toes, stretch my limbs, and connect to my breath.
Each morning I have a ‘sadhana’ - a Sanskrit word for “spiritual routine”...my routine is grounded in a variety of mindfulness practices that includes a long meditation. I am grateful for these practices as it gives me the ability to feel whole.
I am so grateful for this routine as it allows me to start my day with intention and allows me to get centered, and most importantly feel stillness.
How often do we forget the immense value in feeling still?
I’ll be honest, it's taken me years to learn to slow down, and truly access stillness….
Meditation is such a gift, as it brings awareness to my consciousness that each of us has the ability to access stillness...
In honor of Holistic Wellness and Thanksgiving, I am sharing a short guided meditation intended to help you bring awareness to the feeling of gratitude, and help you access stillness in the present moment.

On Fleeing Zhitomir, Russia to Becoming a Corporate Executive - A Conversation with Resilient Lena Polyakova (Episode #12)
[Correction: In our intro, we mistakenly mention Chernobyl as Lena's native town from Russia, when in fact she is from Zhitomir, Russia]
From fleeing Zhitomir Russia, as a young girl to Corporate Executive, Lena’s journey is a story of grit and resilience.
At the tender age of 2, during the heat of communism in Russia, Lena and her family lived behind a closet in a one-bedroom apartment issued by the government.
At the age of 3, Lena and her family are forced to escape her hometown of Zhitomir because of the poisonous gases.
By the time she is 7, Lena flees Russia with her parents and two sets of elderly grandparents without a dollar to their name and no worldly possessions. Escaping to the US as refugees in pursuit of a better life.
This young girl goes on pushing through all obstacles, translating for her family, growing, learning, prevailing against all odds. Never giving up and pulling her family and loved ones along with her with a heart of light and gratitude.
Lena is now a technology leader, a corporate executive director of the technology enablement vertical at TEKsystems, a mother of two increíble children, a wife to an amazing man, someone who uses her voice to help those around her, even when she’s tired.
Lena encourages others to know that YOU are enough and nothing is impossible with a light heart, persistence, and humor. This life is meant to be lived and we are all here for a reason so let’s.
Live. Do. Be.

She is immensely grateful to have been immersed in a career creating, exhibiting, and teaching art and has also been instrumental in the local community to foster an environment of creative enrichment for various organizations for the last 25 years.
Focusing on jewelry design for many years, she has always approached it as “small scale sculpture” so making the shift towards larger-scale sculptural assemblage art was a natural progression. She bolts, drills, glues, collages, paints, sands, saws, molds, bends, sews, wire wraps, and forges the various parts of her designs to achieve a work of art that is both masterfully crafted and aesthetically intriguing.
Denise works on multiple works of art simultaneously, using elements from her extensive collection of found objects which she forages from thrift stores, antique stores, and resale shops. Throughout her entire career, there has been a theme of upcycling (which is the process of converting waste materials or cast-away objects into something of intrinsic, aesthetic, or practical value).
The theme of her current body of artwork orbits around her Sicilian family’s immigrant experiences in America and their journeys across the sea. Her pieces show the resilience of her people and that’s why she is a perfect fit for our theme of the month: Resilience.

On Resiliency from a MS Warrior: A Conversation with Keelin O'brien (Episode #10)
On Resiliency from a MS Warrior: A Conversation with Keelin O'brien (Episode #10)
Keelin is a professional graphic designer, illustrator, and artist.
She’s worked at Amazon for the last 10 years.
While working at Amazon, she created an artistic event called the Amazon ArtWalk.
In 2010 Keelin was diagnosed with MS.
She chose to face this adversity by taking action, so in 2014 she created a bike race team for a cure.
While still searching for the right cure, she gave birth to her son. Shortly afterward she became a single mom, still searching for a cure.
The following year she underwent three years of a newly-FDA-approved treatment, which has kept her in semi-permanent remission.
Fast forward to 2021, and Keelin is now writing a book about her journey with MS.
She hopes to share her story of resilience by offering insights on how she managed her MS through a holistic lifestyle that includes meditation, acupuncture, and yoga, cycling, rock climbing, and walking everywhere.
Keelin believes resilience is a hard-earned personality trait. It is a badge of survival. Resilience to Keelin means always looking for the silver lining, finding gratitude especially within difficult lessons, and never giving up.

On Resiliency through the Lens of a Soulful Photographer: A Conversation with Ashley Strong (Episode #8)
On Resiliency through the Lens of a Soulful Photographer: A Conversation with Ashley Strong (Episode #8)
Since a little girl, Ashley has been enamored by the power of documenting moments in time. Photography was embedded in her soul.
For years, photography was a “side hustle”, something she did at nights and weekends after working her, as she says, “responsible 9-5.” It’s only after the profound question “Am I really living or am I simply existing?” came to her, that everything changed.
She immediately brought to life a lifelong dream of teaching and living in Africa. She taught English on Mafia Island, Tanzania with World Teach, and there, she fell in love with herself, life, and with a sensationally sincere South African man, who is now her husband. She also got certified to teach around the world - which brought her to living and teaching in South Africa and Costa Rica. All the while letting her camera guide her heart and encapsulating all of the beauty she was witnessing.
Upon returning to the United States With $700 and an old car to her name, she made the bold commitment to launch her photography business, Ashley Strong Photography, full time.
Little by little, her client base started to expand, her commitment to creating an intentional business started to grow and before she knew it, she was documenting weddings around the world, inspirational entrepreneurs in her hometown, families expanding and every expression of love in-between. In 2018, she incorporated as Strong Smith, Inc and since then, she’s been humbled to expand every year. Ashley also launched Wings of a Flower Print shop - an exclusive collection of prints from Costa Rica, South Africa, and Tanzania and her mentoring and education program all while being a mama to her inspirational, unique, adventures and loving little girl.
Today, you can find her with her humble little family nestled in the mountains of Southern California where she spends time documenting sincere love in all forms from engagements to weddings, pregnancies to birth, new businesses to celebrating monumental growth, and everything in between.

On Being a Spunky Survivor & Finding Zen in Her She-Shed - A Conversation with Resilient Debbie Tindall (Episode #7)
On Being a Spunky Survivor & Finding Zen in Her She-Shed - A Conversation with Resilient Debbie Tindall (Episode #7)
Debbie can be best described as a spunky woman, with a fire in her belly to go after her dreams and overcome life challenges. At various stages in her life, she had certainly been tested.
When Debbie was about to turn 50, she found herself in the eye of a storm. She had taken on a major home remodel project, just as the world went into lockdown due to the pandemic. However, she didn’t miss a beat as she juggled motherhood, being a loving wife, and working full time as an accountant for a major pharmaceutical company.
Towards the end of 2019, just as she was moving at warp speed ahead in completing her home projects, she received an incredibly intimidating cancer diagnosis.
She was suddenly required to not only slow down but given an opportunity to focus on her health. She realized that what really matters is her family, especially her young 8-year-old son, and being truly present for him.
This new life challenge allowed her to identify what is real in life.
She realized it's not about where you are in life, it’s who you have by your side that matters the most.
She fiercely held on to a positive attitude, faith, and her close network of family and friends, in her journey to beat cancer and go on to live her best life.

On Creating Sage Soul Collective - A Conversation with Resilient Raquel Gonzalez (Episode #6)
On Creating Sage Soul Collective - A Conversation with Resilient Raquel Gonzalez (Episode #6)
Raquel spent much of her career as a freelance interior designer and as an art director for films and tv.
She found herself often changing professions, jobs, careers, jack-of-all-trades, master of none, yet searching for balance in all the wrong places outside herself.
She felt that she was always seeking, never satisfied, and often she would be overcome with anxiety. Seeking balance became of particular importance to her when she became a mother.
At the age of 35, Raquel found herself a single working mother having an existential crisis of sorts. She described this phase as the “dark night of her soul”.
This phase in her life coincided with the global pandemic, which forced her to look within. The deeper she went she felt a calling to become a meditation coach, and to do something she felt deeply passionate about.
Soon she started her company, Soul Sage Collective - her very own spiritual business. Raquel is now a certified meditation coach, dōTERRA essential oils specialist, reiki practitioner, and professional Tarot reader
Nothing brings her more joy than helping others reconnect with their true nature, reach their potential, and realize that life is working for them, not against them.

Emerge into Magnificent Mompreneurship - A Conversation with MLM Fashion Brand Founder, Magda (Episode #3)
Emerge into Magnificent Mompreneurship - A Conversation with MLM Fashion Brand Founder, Magda (Episode #3)
Next up, my very first Omnipresent Awareness podcast guest, Magda.
Magda personifies the essence of a mompreneur, and it is because of stories like hers that this podcast was created.
In her own words, “
I know firsthand how motherhood can be challenging and isolating. This is why I truly believe that sharing our stories can bring us closer together. Every woman deserves a community to lean on and I hope you’ll find a piece of it here.”
The very versatile and innovative mindful mompreneur Magda founder of the MLM fashion brand.
When her second son was born in 2017, she decided to pause her career and focus on her young family while also trying to launch an apparel brand.
She had always loved fashion, but never imagined this passion would lead her away from her career in research to designing breastfeeding-friendly dresses.
During the peak of the pandemic Magda, her husband, and two young boys - Adrian and Julia - moved to Los Angels.
In this next chapter of her life, Magda bravely transitioned from her former career as a political scientist/researcher to fully EMERGING herself into a fashion designer mompreneur….
In her own words, “I founded MLM because I wanted to make the fourth trimester easier for moms by creating a collection of elevated, timeless maternity pieces.”
Magda recognized a gap in the fashion industry market for the unspoken pregnancy phase - the “4th trimester”. So she designed a solution for this gap, which launched her career as a mompreneur.
She cares about our environment — sustainability and minimal waste are among my brand’s core values. And she is also passionate about improving family policies, elevating the voices of women, and advocating for moms in the workplace.

What if you simply needed to set your authentic intentions to follow through to manifest your dreams?

This is My Story...on how I arrived to become a Meditation, Mindfulness, and Mindset Coach.
This podcast ends with a short guided meditation, "On feeling peace through Omnipresent Awareness".
