    Joy is a Practice: With Melissa Bloom

    Joy is a Practice: With Melissa Bloom

    “Joy is a Practice.”

     

    This was such a great conversation with Melissa Bloom.

    Her curiosity and intention to find joy is inspiring. Her belief in humanity more than despair…leaves room for hope and Joy.



    Becoming aware is the first step! Then, realize that you
    get to decide and change your perception in order to see your world in a new way.



    I appreciate that Melissa encourages us to make these changes incrementally, knowing that a “Practice” is something that does not happen overnight.

    You can find out more about Melissa and Joy School on her Website.


    Get her book here and listen to her podcast, which is full of ways to find and practice joy!!!!

     

    May you find Joy in your life today and every day.

     

    Take Care

    The Leighton Show 2.0

    The Leighton Show 2.0

    Hello listeners! Welcome to my second conversation with the hilarious and talented Chip Leighton of The Leighton Show. The always funny, often apologizing dad and husband is a brilliant comedian.



    If you have teens or young adults in your life, you will completely resonate with Chip's content. If you are a husband who sometimes needs to apologize to your wife, welcome to Chip's inspiring and humorous content.



    What sets Chip apart is that he cares about people having a space to laugh and connect based on common truths of our lives. Our kids will forever roll their eyes and be embarrassed by us; Chip makes artful content with that truth!



    Hopefully, Chip will tour again. Last year, he put on a terrific performance with Caroline Rhea and C J Marrinan.



    Head over to Chip's website and find all things The Leighton Show.



    Thank you, Chip, for bringing laughter to the world!

    Style is more than our clothes: with Laura Claiborne

    Style is more than our clothes: with Laura Claiborne

    Let me introduce you to Personal stylist and image
    Consultant Laura Claiborne is the owner of My Styled Life.



    Follow Laura on Instagram for tips on style and more!!!



    I had such a great conversation with Laura. I love how she cares about woman and how they feel in their clothes and, more importantly, how they feel about themselves.


    "I believe every woman deserves to feel beautiful and strong. 

    As women, we can get lost in all the roles we play: wife, mother, daughter, manager, friend…not to mention caretaker, taxi driver, tutor, soccer mom and so many more. It can leave us stressed, exhausted, and—let's be honest—sometimes feeling just plain frumpy. 

    ""Personal styling is an investment in YOU. My process helps you become effortlessly stylish so, as leadership coach Michael Allosso says, you are "you on your best day." Every day."

    ~Laura Claiborne


    Visit Laura's website and find out even more about what she offers and who she is!!



    Be kind to yourself and know that you are more than a number on a scale or a tag on your clothing.



    Come find me on Instagram and enjoy the show!

    Tell others how much they mean to you!!!

    Tell others how much they mean to you!!!

    Has anyone told you how much you mean to them? What did that feel like?



    Some of us go through our days, weeks, months, and years, often unaware of our importance to others. It is remarkable to realize that we matter and have positively impacted another life.



    The conversation I had today with a former professor left us both energized and focused on growing even further in our work. It is incredible to hear you matter to someone, and even more rewarding to share with others how important they are or have been in your life.



    Reach out and tell someone you are a better person because of their presence in your life!

    17 Day Self Kindness Challenge with Marcia Agius

    17 Day Self Kindness Challenge with Marcia Agius

    I always enjoy my guests. This soul is no exception! She truly inspires me to be a better person to myself and to others!



    Marcia Agius is the creator and curator of Inspire Always. go follow her on Instagram.



    Inspire Always is a community that features and highlights amazing women. It is a positive platform that showcases women and their incredible journeys. Everyone has a story, and everyone is special. Now more than ever, we need to support and uplift those around us.

    "Our primary purpose is to build a community and provide that community with opportunities, tips, and challenges to give back and spread kindness."

    She also shares, "Over the years I have been inspired by so many awesome women that is what prompted me to launch Inspire Always. Inspire Always is a forum that highlights and features incredible women sharing their strengths and struggles. It’s a community of women that motivate and cheer others on. It is a place that spreads kindness and positivity, always.

    Philanthropy has always been a huge part of my life and with the start of Inspire Always I have been able to keep giving back. I have had the wonderful opportunity to be a part of a major fund-raising campaign for Sunnybrook’s Odette Cancer Centre. I have also been involved in 100 Women That Care, an organization that supports local charities in my community.

    Another organization I have closely worked with is The Make A Wish Foundation, granting wishes for special children. Most recently, I have partnered with a local organization that also grants wishes for children, Million Dollar Smiles. I was connected to the organization through my community of inspiring women and raised proceeds with the sales of t-shirts that encourage my message to ‘Spread Kindness."

    Marcia is all things kind and reminds us to be kind to ourselves!

    Join the Kindness Circle and be an important part of Kindness!!



    Thank you for listening :-)

    Sid Krofft, The legend, The visionary, The Kind soul!

    Sid Krofft, The legend, The visionary, The Kind soul!

    Grab a bowl of sugary cereal and hang out for this magical conversation! (with Sid Krofft and Harley)



    Then follow Sid on Instagram and be sure to tune into his live "Sundays with Sid" each week at 3:00 pm Pacific/6:00 pm Eastern. In each episode, Sid shares stories of his career and hosts incredible guests. From the "World's Youngest Puppeteer" to the "Grandfather of Puppetry," Sid changed the world of entertainment and artistry.



    For me, growing up with Sid and Marty Krofft's shows was life! It was Saturday morning escapism at its finest. The evening shows and specials were comedy, musical, and entertainment genius.


    Scroll to the end and see if you remember watching one of the shows listed!!!



    This conversation was such a treat. Thank you, Sid and Kelly, for your gracious and generous time!

    p.s.
    I am now 1 degree to Adam Corolla! :-D

    Be Well, Have Fun, and LIVE LIFE!!!!
