To Be Transparent
Being transparent means letting it - all of it - pass through us. Converse to letting go, it means never holding on in the first place. When we can learn to do this, we remove the obstacles of ego that we ourselves create in our lives.
Being transparent isn’t just about physical clarity; it’s about openness, honesty, and vulnerability.

Ranelle Wilson - The Art of Contouring
The special guest today is Ranelle Wilson, who is a up and coming body sculptor. She graduated with a bachelor’s
degree and started a job in the medical field. She, like most of the younger generation that I have interviewed, prefers to work for themselves and that was exactly what she does as a body sculptor.
Ranelle technique is non-invasive body sculpting using wood to help fight cellulite. As a client I can honestly say I walked
away after each session wanting more. What makes her different is that she explains what she is doing and why, she also offers suggestions. She not only has women as clients but also men. Set up a date with you better half spend time getting your bodies sculpted together.
She is setting up meal preparations to aid her clients to
stay on the path to keeping a healthy lifestyle.
She is in Hopewell Junction, Dutchess County and The Bronx.

Selena Cherry- The Aroma is Breathtaking
My special guest today is Selena Cherry, she's a mother grandmother, she works a full-time job and is a solopreneur. She
and I met her at church, I would love to go to church and see her outside. She had that biggest smile and would hug you as you came through the door. It was later that I found out she was on a
ministry called the SMILE ministry.
Selena loves candles and the scents but
would suffer from migraine. It was then she decided to create her own candles.
Selena and I were in an MLM but she moved on and figured that,” Why make money for someone else when I can make
money for myself.” That is exactly what she did and that was the beginning of Bambery Street Creations.
As a customer I highly recommend Bambery
Street Creations and guarantee you will not be disappointed.

Kimberly Policano- Second Chances
Today I had the pleasure of speaking with Kimberly Policano. Kim and I met and worked when she was eighteen years
old. Although she may have left, we reconnected in 2005.
Kim was diagnosed with diabetes at
the age of twenty-five, but as time went by,
she her kidneys would no longer function properly. Determined to keep living, she went on kidney dialysis for seven years
when she would receive her new kidney. She was on her way back to normalcy and a detour hit she never expected. She was dealing with an
old wound on her left foot that became
infected sepsis. The sepsis was in her blood system and began to travel to the
upper portion of her leg and to save her she had her
leg amputated below the knee.
Despite this whole ordeal she has
remained upbeat and
encourages those who may be on this journey. If you or anyone you know may be
going through detours like her reach out to her and hopefully her journey will
encourage you.

Danielle Atheron-Bonner “Mrs. Makes It Happen”
I had the pleasure of interviewing Danielle Atheron-Bonner who hails from The Bronx, NY.She is a force to be reckoned with and a powerhouse of a woman.I met her while attending church with my mother and my mother who always spoke highly of her. Danielle is a wife, a mother and a woman who is her own boss. She is a teacher; she is licensed to sell real estate in three states and currently works on her license in a fourth state. She not only sells real-estate she also owns a few real estate properties.While speaking with her she made an awesome comparison of why Baby Boomers stay at the same job: whereas her generation knows when to fold and move forward. As she calls it the “POWER OF QUITTING”. As you listen to her you’ll understand that power.Facebook: Dani Does Real Estate Facebook: Dani Does Law & Policy: In PracticeYouTube: danidoesthisandthat#danidoesrealestate #powerinquitting #danidoeslaw #teacher #enterpreneur #lawandpolicy

This was very powerful and moving! I had to forward to my daughter when I learned of the possibility of birth control being cancerous! Ms Hammond has risen above a very trying ordeal. I am grateful for her transparency as this takes much courage! Very enlightening!!
