    What if your life story isn’t something to hide—but the very thing that makes your marketing work? In this episode, I sit down with Melanie Whitaker, author and coach behind You Are Your Marketing and Transforming Pain Into Purpose. Melanie shares her powerful journey of being raised by a narcissist and how that experience shaped her voice, confidence, and approach to marketing.

In this episode, we explore: Growing up with a narcissistic parent and reclaiming your voice How to market using your story without oversharing or trauma-dumping Why “you are your marketing” isn’t a cliché—it’s a strategy The role of public relations in long-term brand visibility Turning pain into purpose, credibility, and connection If you’ve ever felt like your story mattered but didn’t know how to use it in business, this episode will change how you think about marketing—and yourself.

    152|Legacy Beyond Limits: Disability, Fatherhood, and Building Community with Corey Ihler

    What happens when success looks nothing like the traditional path? In this powerful episode, Laurie sits down with Corey Ihler, a realtor, single dad, and new owner of The Millcreek View, a local community newspaper. Corey shares a story that challenges how we define intelligence, education, and resilience. Due to a rare genetic disability, Corey graduated from college unable to read, relying on visual learning and pattern recognition to navigate a world built for words. Years later, he discovered his daughter carried the same rare DNA — and together, as father and daughter, they began the journey of learning how to see and read the world differently. Corey opens up about fatherhood, perseverance, disability, and what it means to lead with empathy. From real estate to community journalism, his story is a reminder that limitations don’t define us — how we adapt, love, and show up does. This conversation is about legacy, learning, and the quiet strength of rewriting your story in real time. Millcreek View 7Day Podcast Pro  lacoach@comcast.net

    150|Surviving the Interruption: Dean Sikes on Abuse, Forgiveness & Teen Suicide Prevention

    In this powerful episode, Laurie sits down with Dean Sikes, founder of You Matter and a nationally known speaker who has spent decades bringing hope to students across the country. But before Dean ever stepped on a stage, his life was shaped by two major interruptions—almost losing his mother at a young age, and later, coming face-to-face with the man who sexually abused him at 15… in the middle of Home Depot. Dean opens up about the trauma he carried for years, the moment everything came rushing back, and the courageous steps he took to finally get help. He shares how healing his own story gave him the clarity and passion to dedicate his life to preventing teen suicide, supporting survivors of childhood sexual abuse (CSA), and reminding every young person that their life has value. This conversation is tender, raw, and deeply hopeful. If you or someone you love has walked through trauma, loss, or silent battles, Dean’s honesty will remind you that healing is possible—and your story still matters.

    148A|Companioning Through Grief: Chaplaincy, Trauma, and Healing Presence

    In this deeply compassionate conversation, I’m joined by **Cindy Meyers and Merle Meyers, founders of Grief and Trauma Chaplaincy, to explore the sacred work of grief chaplaincy and the practice of companioning those who are grieving. We talk about what it truly means to walk alongside loss — not to fix, rush, or explain it away — but to offer steady presence, listening, and care. Cindy and Merle share how grief chaplaincy supports individuals, families, and communities navigating trauma, death, and profound life transitions, and why companioning is such a powerful alternative to traditional grief “solutions.” We also discuss their upcoming grief companioning training, designed for those who feel called to support others through grief with compassion, boundaries, and embodied presence — whether in professional roles or personal relationships. This episode is for anyone who has experienced loss, supports others through grief, or feels drawn to meaningful service rooted in humanity and hope. Topics include: • What grief chaplaincy really is • The difference between companioning and fixing • Trauma-informed grief support • How to hold space without overwhelm • Grief chaplaincy training and calling Grief and Trauma Chaplaincy  lacoach@comcast.net 7 Day podcast Pro  How you can support this podcast
