In this podcast, we explore the fascinating world of baby sign language with Dr. Joseph Garcia, a pioneer in the field. Dr. Garcia is a renowned expert on the ability of infants and young children to learn sign language and communicate effectively from as early as 6 months old. During the podcast, Dr. Garcia shares his insights and experiences on the benefits of teaching sign language to babies, including improved communication skills, enhanced cognitive development, and stronger bonds between parents and children. He also delves into the history of baby sign language, and how his research has revolutionized our understanding of how young children learn language. Whether you're a new parent, caregiver, or simply interested in learning more about the science of language development, this podcast is sure to be fascinating and informative. Join us as we explore the amazing world of baby sign language with one of its foremost experts. About Dr. Joseph Garcia Over the years, he has found that most parents/caregivers are happy with just using the signs for Eat, More, and Milk. However, babies are curious by nature and could express much more if they had the vocabulary. So, Dr. Garcia created a practical, effective, easy-to-use method that helps parents add many more signs to their daily lives. Dr. Joseph has pioneered the global effort to improve parent/infant communication since 1988. His experiences in the Deaf Community inspired his pioneering work. His books and programs have resulted in thousands of families using signs to communicate with their pre-speech infants. Dr. Joseph regularly consults with hospitals, healthcare providers, and educational institutions on how to use sign language as an effective method of communication when spoken language is not an option. His groundbreaking work continues with his learn-to-read Dr. Joseph’s Fingerspelling Book, a program that makes learning to read a game-like activity. Following his military service, Dr. Joseph, working with the Deaf community and physicians from across the nation, developed a comprehensive course in diagnostic medical communication in American Sign Language to respond to the large number of veterans going deaf from anti-malaria drugs. To enjoy life, Dr. Joseph ran a dog sled team for many years, communicating with chimpanzees through signing, is a jazz musician, stage entertainer — doing magic shows for more than 50 years, skis, snowboards, and mountain bikes.

Break the cycle of trauma: Elena's powerful message on the crucial need for self-love and healing to protect our future generations About Elena Perella As a Domestic Violence and Eating Disorders Advocate, she raises awareness of the root cause of these problems so that we can eradicate them and free ourselves and our children from unnecessary suffering.   Elena coached herself through eating disorders and domestic violence. This led her to the understanding that those problems are not our choice nor our fault. They are a manifestation of our family's toxic emotional inheritance, fueled by the pain of our emotional wounds, and societal toxic influences. Once she freed and healed herself,  Elena broke up with generational pains and took the lead in her life. Elena speaks at events and in podcasts to help people understand that not all suffering is good and that we can learn about ourselves and life in a better way, namely, through love. If we want to create a sane, healthy, and safe reality for us and our children, we must evolve into New Human Beings, detached from the emotional aspects of our families that are toxic and free from societal toxic influences, so that we can choose how to feel, what to think, and how to behave. This is the only way to lay down the foundation for a constructive future.

In this podcast episode, Dr. Ragaratnam discusses the critical importance of "hardwiring" essential skills in children during their infancy. For me, this brought to mind the Biblical proverb "train up a child in the way they should go," Dr. Ragaratnam emphasizes the importance of instilling fundamental abilities and values in children from a young age. He highlights the challenges that arise when children are not adequately trained during their formative years, leading to significant issues that can persist into adulthood. Dr. Ragaratnam also highlights the significant financial costs associated with treating adults who are trying to address childhood wounds and develop skills that could have been learned earlier. This episode offers valuable insights and practical advice for parents and caregivers on how to promote healthy development in children and set them up for success in life. About Dr. Ravi Ragaratnam Author of Hardwiring vs. Rewiring. A book that revealed itself as he was embarking to write a series of children’s books to aid and accelerate early childhood development skills, which then evolved into its current state that highlights the connection to the 21 st – century skills. Why the connection to the 21st. century skills? It has to do with his background – Dr. Ragaratnam has 30 years of experience in the corporate world that allowed him to mentor, coach, and develop different employee demographics of leaders across various organizations to be high performing and excel in the current Industry 4.0 that requires excellence in the 21 st – century skills. https://drravirajaratnam.com About Theresa Inman A wife and a mother to two children, Theresa Alexander Inman is a Board Certified Behavior Analyst and Infant Toddler Development Specialist.

Agape Garcia shares her story of transforming from trauma into growth.   About Agape Be Your Incredible Self (BYIS) best describes Ms. Garcia’s tenacious attitude towards empowering others. Garcia, over the past 35 years has navigated through domestic violence, privacy, safety, vulnerability, and the mindset to endure personal adverse events in life.  Her survival of a double attempted homicide while 8 months pregnant (by the father) and the desperation to survive became the catalyst to the foundation of BYIS while achieving an undisputed outlook of independence.  During her journey to overcome, Garcia learned that extreme independence is a trauma driven response and a natural one which can be defeated through focused, self awareness and intentional control. Through her own walk, harsh lessons brought on by extreme independence resulted in areas of her life being sabotaged repeatedly.  Her personal journey of post traumatic growth has led Garcia to dedicating her life in developing transformational programs, various forms of coaching, certification courses and establishing a nonprofit to help real time victims. Her commitment is to provide lifelong transformational habits that can restore your powerful internal sense of control. One of her personal statements, ‘You don’t live anywhere but in your head’  is why some of her laser focus teachings are on aligning your mental and emotional belief system. As her passion grew from her own personal struggles, Garcia became active within the community receiving a Mayoral appointment to work with the Citizen Review board in direct conjunction with Internal Affairs.  She received hands-on training from the Sheriff’s department, Department of Homeland Security, and FEMA which also led to the Infrastructure Liaison Officer designation (ILO), through the local Law Enforcement Center. Garcia has spent more than 20 years in the corporate world holding positions in Office Administration, Project Management, Compliance, Policy writing, Team building, Training, Leadership and Consulting. She continued to serve other organizations including the American Society for Industrial Security (ASIS), Board of Directors, and holds a current membership in the FBI vetted private sector program of InfraGard. As VP of a Security Consultant Company, she has developed programs with leadership responsible for security and emergency management. These emphasize awareness toward identifying different stages of human behavior leading towards violence mitigation. While working, attending school, and raising her kids as a single parent, her personal priorities of housing, safety and privacy for her children were of utmost importance. This required Garcia to navigate through various self-help centers, state, city, local programs, systems and assistance to create a stable foundation for her family while providing the ability to assist others. She also volunteers and collaborates with local law writer(s), in support of bills under Public Safety. Garcia believes in the need to feel loved, wanted, and cared for as a part of life in all of us. Living through emotional tugs of war and learning to apply a controlled healthy mindset to overcome voids, shortcomings, and to break unhealthy cycles is who she is today versus the opposite of where she came from. Today, she prides herself on meeting the daily challenges of being vulnerable and safe at the same time while empowering others to Be Your Incredible Self. Garcia’s personal mission is to help lead others in transforming their survival of Domestic Violence (DV) into Post Traumatic Growth and to mitigate the depletion of resources for real time victims. Sharing her personal testimony has empowered so many others. She loves teaching her BYIS formula of: How to combine Situational Awareness with Emotional Intelligence to control your triggers.

D. Neil Elliot is back talking about the power of our thoughts.  You and create the life you want for yourself and your family by changing your thoughts.  I have learned that everything begins with a thought.  Upgrade your life and your children's by changing your thoughts as they become your behaviors and your children will follow. About D. NEILin his words: As I write this, it has been just over three years since I began my journey, utilizing the knowledge I gained to reach out and contact the Divine, and to cleanse and rebuild my consciousness. This contact takes place when you gain the knowledge and insights about the Truth of Existence, Creation, and the twin impulses of being, and follow the instructions provided. Only after I had completed all the necessary learnings and steps was I able to reach out properly to make contact with the Divine.   When I first started meditating, I felt nothing I recognized as contact. After a few months of meditating daily, I got in the swing of clearing my mind completely of the string of endless thoughts that flow non-stop into the human mind and permeate it. As I continued with daily meditations, daily cleansing, and the rebuilding of my consciousness, my contact with the Divine became clearer, beautiful, and more powerful. The stronger the inflow of spiritual energy was, the more my body reacted in movements and vibrations. As I became more receptive to the inflow of spiritual power, I began to shift into higher frequencies of consciousness. If you join me in this process, completing the learnings, learning how to meditate properly, and sticking with it, you too may enjoy these amazing and beautiful experiences yourself, as you ascend in consciousness.

D. Neill Elliot shares his journey to transformation and spiritual perfection using meditation  Biography To any outsider, D. Neil Elliott was highly educated, owned a profitable consulting firm, and had a successful career and an amazing wife and family. But things were not all they seemed to be … Neil was facing a lot of challenges. In a phrase, he was in a dark place. Quite by accident, he discovered a Higher Road. As he traveled that road, he found the key to transforming his life.   Over the course of the following year, Neil lifted himself to an inner state of love, peace, joy, and abundance. His perspectives on life changed entirely. His troubles and tribulations were his impetus to find the key that enabled him to revolutionize his life. He learned that the search for a better life does not entail positive thinking, saying affirmations, chanting mantras, or traveling to India to sit at the feet of a guru—or any other popularized method of “finding yourself.” …The key? To ascend in both spiritual perception and truth, you need to use the right process to break through your entrenched, human-ego barriers. For nearly three decades, Neil read hundreds of self-help and spiritual books and took self-development courses. All of them offered hope for change and improvement, but nothing fulfilled his needs or genuinely delivered on its promises. Neil’s desire—and his new mission in life—is to share the knowledge he gained and the process he used on his journey to self-awareness, together with the blueprint document he discovered that was instrumental in transforming his life. He wants to give you, regardless of your station in life, the tools and opportunity to empower yourself, transform your life, and draw peace, joy, love, and prosperity into your personal situation and environment. Neil believes that as more and more people follow this Higher Road to true spiritual perfection, a New Era of Love and Peace will dawn for everyone throughout the world.

In this episode, Nate goes deeper into how he 'created' his starting 5.  The people who influenced and helped shape his life.  He also did the same for his son/MIT (Man in Training). Biography Author and TED speaker Nathaniel A. Turner, JD, MALS, is a self-described “Humanity Propulsion Engineer.” Nate is the author of several books, including the children’s book series, “The Amazing World of STEM,” and his history-making book, “Raising Supaman.”  Turner’s appeared in many media outlets, including The Washington Post, Black Enterprise, iHeartRadio, The Good Men Project, Sirius XM, and U.S. News & World Report. Corporations, municipalities, and NGOs like Anthem, Inc., the National Collegiate Athletic Association, the City of Indianapolis, and the National Society of Black Engineers invited Nate to share his practical message for living the life we’ve always imagined while also serving the greater good. A modern-day Renaissance Man, as evidenced by the diversity of his education, including a bachelor in accounting, masters in history and theology, and doctor of jurisprudence combined with a wide range of personal experiences and professions, are only part of what makes his wide-ranging presentations “can’t miss” events. What truly sets Nate apart from others is his unique oft times comical ability not only to see the world differently but to challenge his audiences in an edutaining way to live outside the box so that the world might be able to experience us at our very best. As a zealous advocate that every person has an opportunity to maximize their human potential, Nate regularly shares through books, courses, workshops, and conferences a backward design life process initially created to help his unborn child become a great global citizen and meet the rigorous educational requirements of the top colleges and universities without means of wealth, privilege, legacy status, fraud, bribery, cheating or Adobe Photoshop. Turner’s son not only met Harvard’s admission benchmarks (i.e., test scores in the top 1%, 33 college credits by his junior year, proficiency in four languages, left home after his junior year to play soccer in Brazil; and started a foundation to address teen homelessness); he eviscerated the profiled criterion by his sixteenth birthday. At present, Turner’s son is a third-year Electrical and Computer Engineering Ph.D. candidate at one of the world’s premier graduate engineering schools. Today, those tools, techniques, and strategies initially created to help his Gen Zer thrive in the Fourth Industrial Revolution are educational and life development staples for students and parents of all ages and organizations worldwide. When you hear Nathaniel, not only will it be obvious why he is a highly sought-after speaker, you will never be the same. Moreover, there is little doubt that those in the audience will leave with a renewed commitment to live the life they’ve always imagined while doing their part to leave the earth better than it was when they arrived.

Communication Coach, Brenden Kumarasamy, shares actionable tips and tools to motivate your children to communicate.  He also shares how to help them realize the importance of communication.   Biography Brenden is the founder of MasterTalk, he coaches ambitious executives & entrepreneurs to become top 1% communicators in their industry. He also has a popular YouTube channel called MasterTalk, with the goal of providing free access to communication tools for everyone in the world. About Brenden "I believe the next Elon Musk is a 7 year old girl who can't afford a communication coach, so it's my duty to help her succeed with my free resources." - Brenden K.  After many years of doing presentation case competitions (think professional sports for nerds) in university, I accidentally developed a skill in helping others communicate effectively and started the YouTube channel MasterTalk because I realized that everything I was teaching them wasn't available for FREE on the Internet. I heard a ton of advice that didn't make much sense like "be yourself" or "get up on stage" or better "imagine everyone in their underpants". I pressed record on my phone, started filming videos on communication in my mom's basement and now the goal is to help everyone master this important skill.
