Religion vs Spirituality | Michael McAdams

Mon, 30 Mar 2026 23:32:50 GMT

Michael McAdams was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, known as the City of the Seven Hills. He was raised in a Christian household surrounded by family members who valued faith and spirituality. His uncle, John W. Sullivan, was a passionate Pentecostal preacher who founded churches in Florida and Kentucky, including the largest in Middletown, Ohio. Wilma Jean Jones, Michael’s mother, frequently played piano during church services. Michael’s grandmother, Mary Culbertson, was called to the ministry at age 30. She often spoke of how God communicated with her through her heart. She received sermons and song lyrics dictated to her mind, which she used in her sermons and singing. Mary always acknowledged these gifts as from God and felt privileged to receive them. As Michael matured, his strong foundation of faith proved beneficial, and he remains a sincere seeker of truth. He remains open today to all sources of spiritual and psychic information. At twenty, Michael enlisted in the U.S. Army and was stationed in Germany for two years. At that time, he was married, and his wife and daughter joined him in Germany. They had an apartment off-base, and his second daughter was born there. After returning from the Army, Michael worked for GM in Cincinnati and also served as a sales manager for Sheraton Hotels in Dayton, booking commercial events.

Even as a child, Michael questioned church teachings, always feeling there was more to discover. With a solid faith foundation, he explored various spiritual and psychic topics. “When the student is ready, a teacher will appear,” suited Michael well, as he met people who recommended books or speakers that guided him further along his path. Michael has always felt intuitive and soon learned he could receive information and messages for others by holding objects like jewelry, keys, or items that carried a person’s vibration—techniques known as psychometry. He was given a table as a reader at a Cincinnati spiritual event and performed readings at their monthly meetings. Michael believes his mission in this lifetime is to serve as a bridge between those with a biblical faith background and those with a spiritual one, offering enlightenment and truth through the messages and teachings he shares, inspired by his mother, Wilma Jean Jones.

Wilma Jean Jones attended many of these spiritual events and, with an open mind, discovered her own ability to tune into others and receive guidance from their spirit teachers or angels. She began teaching classes for those interested in developing their spiritual abilities. Wilma Jean spoke publicly to women’s groups, was featured in several newspaper articles, and appeared on Cincinnati television discussing her abilities. This eventually led her to conduct dedicated sessions in which she received messages and teachings from spirit teachers and angels, which now make up three volumes of the book "An Angel Told Me So."

Psychic Development 101 — What Nobody Teaches You | Lisa Campion

Tue, 17 Feb 2026 01:31:34 GMT

I am passionate about training and empowering empaths, psychics, and healers since I believe that the world needs all the healers it can get! Helping people understand and develop their own intuitive nature is my calling.

I love to empower people to accept and develop their psychic and empathic skills as the gift it truly is, since an untrained psychic nature can feel like a curse. Empathy can feel like your greatest weakness until we learn to manage it, and then it becomes our greatest strength.

Medium Barbra Banner Uses Comedy

Tue, 10 Feb 2026 16:17:17 GMT

A Call from the Beyond. It all began with strange occurrences—objects flying off shelves, fans activating with lights flickering (even one without a bulb!), and glowing orbs moving through my videos. The universe was trying to communicate, and I had to listen. I soon discovered this was a family secret spanning generations. What I initially thought was beginner’s luck was actually destiny unfolding. Since then, I’ve trained with leading Psychic, Mediumship, and Trance mentors, strengthening my connection to spirits. The messages I receive offer deep insights—answers to your questions, guidance, and connections to loved ones who have passed but still watch over you. Some share love, others seek forgiveness, but all remind you—they are never truly gone. With 35 years supporting those in crisis—hotlines, hospital ERs, and the city's Crisis Response Team—I’ve seen emotional depths firsthand. Spirit understands this, too. Readings can be healing, joyful, and transformative—and often, surprisingly fun! Looking back, every part of my journey has led me here. If you feel drawn to connect, seek guidance, or find peace, I’d be honored to help you cross to the other side.

You've Been Getting Feminine Energy Completely Wrong | Elisabeth Carson

Fri, 30 Jan 2026 15:40:06 GMT

Elisabeth Carson is a global speaker, entrepreneur, and founder of Enhanced Flow, a movement helping people rebuild their lives from the inside out by aligning mind, body, and soul. Her work bridges neuroscience, trauma healing, emotional mastery, and biohacking - uniting science and spirituality through lived experience and personal transformation.

Born in South Korea and adopted into a white American family, Elisabeth’s early life was marked by abandonment, identity struggles, and deep emotional pain.

By her teens and early twenties, she was living fast - working as a model, actress, and video vixen, appearing in music videos, TV shows, and films while partying to fill the emptiness inside. Drugs, alcohol, and the chase for validation became her escape, until a breaking point forced her to face herself and completely transform her life.

After hitting rock bottom and even spending time locked up in jail, Elisabeth made the radical decision to change. She found healing through over 100 holistic and scientific modalities, from somatic therapy and neurofeedback to breath-work, energy work, and biohacking.

That deep inner work led her from survival to sovereignty - eventually becoming a pastry chef at an elite country club and restaurant, then a licensed real estate agent despite a felony record, and later working at a mental health facility where she was quickly promoted to president. From there, she went on to help scale a global brand from six to eight figures in just three years, expanding its reach from 3 million to over 11 million followers worldwide.

Today, she mentors thousands through her signature methods - The Mirror Method and The 7-Step Healing Method - guiding others to rewire their minds, regulate their nervous systems, and reclaim their purpose. Currently earning her Brain Health Certification through Amen University, Elisabeth has also fallen in love with cellular biology, earning a HarvardX certification on mitochondria and the body’s energy systems. She continues to merge neuroscience and embodiment to teach one truth: healing is the real flex.

The Problem Isn't Your Drinking, It's Your Thinking | Dr Robb Kelly

Sat, 27 Dec 2025 18:22:49 GMT

Robb Kelly, PhD – The Recovery Expert – was born in Manchester, England. He grew up in a family of musicians and developed a deep love for music at an early age. He was performing on stage by the age of nine. During his early twenties, he worked at the prestigious Abbey Road Studios as a session musician in London.

Addiction was always close to his heart, as Dr. Kelly was born into a family with a history of alcoholism. He began drinking and using drugs at a young age, but he managed to stay on a path of success, moving to Oxford in the early 1980s to pursue a PhD in Psychology at the esteemed University of Oxford. He continued to drink heavily during his time in Oxford—yet still managed to complete his doctoral studies, earning a PhD in psychology in 1984.

Even though he was a heavy drinker, no one would have predicted that he would end up living on the streets of Manchester, homeless and alone. He recalls a night when he had a staggering realization about his own alcoholism. It would later inspire two of his most popular catchphrases: “The Problem is not our Drinking, it is our Thinking” and “Step out of the Disease, and into the Solution.”

Dr. Kelly was standing on a street corner one night in Manchester, body trembling from alcohol withdrawal. He stood in front of a liquor store, shaking and desperately waiting for it to open. He knew that as soon as he took that first sip of alcohol, he would feel relief.

As soon as the store opened, he rushed inside. The clerk grabbed a bottle of vodka from the shelf and placed it in a brown paper bag before him. As he lifted the bag, his trembling stopped. His body ceased shaking, and his mind found peace. He hadn’t even taken the first sip; it was just the promise of alcohol that stopped his shaking and eased his restlessness.

The REAL Story Behind Music Management Secrets | Yelawolf's Manager Ed Crowe

Sat, 08 Nov 2025 19:34:45 GMT

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. For Edward Crowe, each step along that path has brought its own costs and gains, losses and lessons, as well as opportunities to see reality through a different lens. From childhood, young Edward was captivated by all things magical and otherworldly, fueled by numerous books on spirituality and the occult that his grandmother gave him. As a teenager, he excelled as a magician, performing both close-up and stage magic until, at 16, Guillain-Barré syndrome left him paralyzed and on life support. What followed was a painful, years-long recovery, during which he was forced to confront his own determination. Discipline rebuilt his body, but it was creativity and spirituality that fostered a new perception.

While moving through the ranks of the music business, from roadie to tour manager, to artist management, and accomplished photographer, Crowe turned to the study of sacred plant medicine and of psychedelics as a way of grounding. "Things were so hectic on the road and there were so many different personalities & energies everywhere. The ceremonies became a way of re-centering and showing me new ways to think about problem solving and who I am in all this." From student participating in psilocybin ceremonies to guiding them, he once told an uninitiated "I wouldn't say psilocybin's the answer, more so, it's a key that can unlock the door that leads to the answer." Amongst his peers, Edward Crowe has become a trusted psychedelic guide and mentor, helping them to-see the bigger picture within themselves. "That's what 'Happy Birthday is - a daily reminder that every day is the first day of the rest of your life. It's yours to embrace. It's yours to live." - Happy Birthday!

Edward Crowe, co-founder of Sebek Distribution & CEO of Murder Cigars, is a music business executive, entrepreneur, internationally published photographer and mystic whose 20+ year career bridges entertainment, spirituality, and cultural innovation.

The Secret Nikola Tesla Took to the Grave By Zsolt Ptah

Mon, 18 Aug 2025 18:28:16 GMT

I am a passionate artist and filmmaker on a mission to deliver a powerful message that offers genuine value and inspires change through awareness of the truth. I have always felt that I arrived on this planet at this particular time for a unique purpose. What I long to see more of in the world are kindness, compassion, and coherence. But how can we unite as a community in a world that feels so fractured?

I believe it starts with the courage to ask the right questions. As a researcher and storyteller, I’ve discovered that actual change begins by uncovering the truth within ourselves. This inner work ripples outward, shaping the collective reality we all share. It embodies the timeless principle: “Be the change you wish to see in the world.”

Since 2015, I’ve been driven to investigate the forces behind the collapse of ancient civilizations and their sacred sites. My purpose is to decode the information hidden in plain sight — to unravel the mystery that has echoed through millennia.

Through visual narratives and immersive storytelling, I seek to connect the dots between ancient cataclysms and the urgent crises we face today — revealing that they may share a common origin.

Today, we have a beautiful opportunity to come together and build a professional Movie Studio Franchise, funded and crafted by we the people. Our vision at Ptah Pictures is to create a production fellowship specifically designed to support the human family. We are more than just filmmaking; we are a movement of higher consciousness.

Over the years, I’ve helped countless people release pain they thought they’d carry forever, overcome deep-rooted fears, and step into a life they never imagined possible. The shifts may seem subtle at first, but they ripple out in incredible ways—bringing more ease, clarity, and joy into your daily life.

All you need to do is trust the process and believe in yourself. Together, we’ll create a space where healing can happen naturally, and you’ll see just how powerful the journey can be. Healing isn't about magic tricks or quick fixes — it’s about unlocking the wisdom and potential already within you.

Galactic Channeler Jessica Taylor's Pleiadian Encounter

Tue, 24 Jun 2025 12:57:49 GMT

Jessica Taylor offers one-on-one and live audience channeling experiences, intuitive development, guided meditations, and light language activation. By using channeling and soul-journey meditation practices, we can connect with the consciousness of high-frequency beings and our higher self, aligning us more closely with the Universe’s abundant vibrations and unlocking knowledge and memories stored deep within us, often forgotten. We begin to understand that WE ARE the temple and can find our own connection to Source energy by developing and expanding our consciousness and intuition.

Jessica underwent profound personal transformation through a spiritual awakening, which also taught her the significance of energetic vibration and connection with her higher consciousness and the Universe. She started by facilitating soul journeying through group and individual meditations, using her psychic abilities to offer insights to clients. As her spiritual practice deepened, she noticed her energy elevate to a higher vibration, leading her to embrace her role as a channel for multi-dimensional, galactic consciousness and to receive insights from cosmic beings. She is now a recognized psychic channel in Cornwall, regularly conducting live channeling sessions and one-on-one personal readings both in person and online.

Metaphysical Ashlea Piefer: From Homeless to Spiritual Guru

Thu, 19 Jun 2025 23:35:58 GMT

OFFICIAL WEBSITE: https://ashleapiefer.com/

From a young age, I felt a deep connection to energies that most people can’t see—the world beyond the physical realm. I perceived spirits, entities, and subtle forces that shaped our reality. It was overwhelming and isolating initially. I felt different, as though I didn’t belong. I believed I was alone in these experiences, wondering if perhaps something was wrong with me.

However, as I grew older, everything changed. I experienced a profound spiritual awakening that completely shifted my perspective on life. I realized that I wasn’t crazy—I was tapping into dimensions and frequencies that few understood. This awakening opened me to the profound knowledge that true fulfillment doesn’t come from material possessions, no matter how perfect they may appear on the surface. True fulfillment arises from within, by recognizing the value of our energy and the significance of life itself.

Through this awakening, I began connecting with cosmic beings and ascended masters—the Pleiadians, Syrians, Andromedans, and the ancient Dragon Mothers—who taught me profound truths about consciousness, energy, and the divine feminine. As I continued to study ancient wisdom, neuroplasticity, and the mysteries of the universe, I came to realize that everything is interconnected. I could see how energy flows through everything, from the physical body to the unseen realms.

My journey hasn’t been without challenges. I’ve faced adversity and trauma, including the experience of homelessness at 15. But every obstacle and experience has shaped who I am today. These trials led me to a life of deep introspection and ultimately to my calling as a spiritual guide and meditation coach.

Now, I dedicate my life to helping others reconnect with their true, authentic selves. Through mindfulness, meditation, ancient teachings, and spiritual guidance, I help individuals transcend limiting beliefs and harness the power of their energy. My mission is to guide you through your journey—whether you’re awakening to your psychic gifts, seeking peace amidst chaos, or learning to navigate the unseen dimensions that surround us.

It’s not about perfection. It’s about progress, remembering who you are at your core, and finding peace within. If my story resonates with you and you’re seeking something more profound, know that you are not alone. I’m here, walking the path with you, ready to guide you back to your true self.

Galactic Historian Debbie Solaris Reads My Akashic Records

Sat, 17 May 2025 22:21:59 GMT

Debbie Solaris is an ET contactee, interdimensional traveler, and galactic historian. A few years ago, after a fateful extraterrestrial contact experience, Debbie awakened to her true star lineage and higher calling. Through her ancestral connection with the Akashic Records, she has been receiving downloads of galactic historical information and universal spiritual knowledge ever since. She feels it’s a significant part of her mission here on Earth to help awaken others to their own true Divine selves and cosmic origins.

Debbie stumbled upon the metaphysical scene "almost by accident," as she describes it, and calls herself a “real late bloomer” on the spiritual path. She had a conventional and conservative Roman Catholic upbringing in a military family where “aliens and UFOs were just never discussed,” and what mattered was the material world we inhabit. Although she had an ordinary childhood, she always felt ‘different’ from the people around her, as she was much more sensitive and introspective than her family members. She spent her formative years traveling with her family throughout Europe and Australia, soaking up all of the history, art, and culture of each place they visited. "I was fortunate to have loving and progressive parents who wanted us to experience the world and everything it had to offer."

After spending several years on active duty in the military, earning a Bachelor's Degree in Science, and working in the environmental field as a civilian, Debbie met her life partner, Terry, who was (and still is) a UFO enthusiast and introduced her to the world of extraterrestrials and the paranormal.

“Even then, I was pretty skeptical,” she recalls. Although Terry has had a lifelong curiosity and fascination with aliens and UFOs, they didn’t seem real to her, especially as a scientist and environmentalist.

Debbie currently lives in Castle Rock, Colorado, with her significant other Terry. Sadly, her Sphynx cat Piglet, Debbie's registered therapy cat, loved by many fans on social media, passed away on Nov. 15, 2017 (see the "Piglet" pages on this site). Debbie now shares her home with Raisin, an older rescue kitty who is a Donskoy, a Russian hairless breed.

Shimrit Nativ | How to Reprogram Your Subconscious

Sun, 12 Jan 2025 20:54:25 GMT

You can be, do, and have anything you want. It's never too late or too soon to pursue your dreams and create the life you desire.

In my 43 years, I've had several "lives" and fulfilled all my dreams and visions. I will continue on this journey of growth and evolution forever, and I wish the same for you!

I've lived in nature for four years, chopping wood for fires, with no roof or facilities.

I've had a successful musical career for over twenty years: teaching, composing, recording, and performing.

I've healed pre-cancerous lesions in my cervix through spiritual and inner-child work.

I've started a business in my late thirties with no business experience and reached six figures in less than a year, helping dozens heal physically and emotionally, overcome anxiety and depression, and create massive success in their professional and personal lives.

One of the most meaningful turning points in my business career was in my second year when working too hard to reach my goals caused me to experience complete burnout.

This drove me to pause and focus on my health and balance. Searching for the right resource to help me, I reached out to my late mentor, Bob Proctor, one of the greatest experts of our time in human potential and success, who helped millions create financial freedom and transform their lives in many marvelous ways.

Working with Bob and his team, I restarted my business and rapidly multiplied my results. I also started helping other business owners build and scale online and have since been continually expanding my company, impact, and vision; I am very grateful for it all.

I deeply believe that bringing spirituality and science together in simple, applicable models of understanding and practice is key to changing individual and collective paradigms.

This is why I have also joined Dr. Joe Dispenza's team as a Neuro-Change Solutions consultant in training.

We are spiritual beings in a physical body with a powerful mind.

Well-being and prosperity are skills you can practice and master.

Remember who you are and devote yourself to this purpose for the greatest good of all.

This is not just a guide; it’s your ultimate playbook for turning those modeling dreams into a thriving, purposeful business.

When I first started my journey in the modeling world, it wasn’t all glitz and glam. I was discovered at 16, but my journey didn’t immediately kick off.

But that “no” lit a fire in my soul, sparking a determination that led me to achieve every dream I put into my dream binder. From becoming Miss Trinidad and Tobago to being on America’s Next Top Model, I’ve walked runways worldwide, worked with my dream brands like Macy's and Covergirl, and even built a successful TV host and social media influencer career. I’ve learned from the best and made my share of mistakes, so I wrote this book—to help you skip the mistakes and fast-track to success.

"The Business Model" isn’t just about how to look fierce in front of the camera—although I’ll definitely teach you that, too! It’s about understanding that, as a model, you are a business. I’m here to show you how to build that business from the ground up. This book covers everything from creating a personal brand to mastering the art of negotiation and understanding contracts. You’ll learn how to navigate the highs and lows of this industry with grace and grit, build a network that supports you, and keep leveling up your career.

Please think of this book as your mentor, guiding you step-by-step through the modeling world with real, honest advice from someone who has done that and is still killing it in the game. With heartfelt stories, insider tips, and actionable steps, "The Business Model" is your go-to guide for becoming the savvy, successful model you were born to be.

Get ready to transform your modeling career from a dream into a reality full of purpose, profit, and endless possibilities. Grab your copy, strike your fiercest pose, and start this incredible journey together. Remember, the runway is yours—now own it!

Love always,

Your model bestie, Renée Bhagwandeen

Dr. Jade Teta | How To Be A "Next Level Human"

Tue, 16 Jul 2024 05:07:00 GMT

Someone once described me as a mix of jock, science nerd, nature boy & philosopher. It makes sense, I suppose.

I was a personal trainer for 25 years. I still produce video-based workouts that are used by hundreds of thousands worldwide. It's kind of crazy to think about that number. I have been lucky to find a publisher who can produce and market great products.

I have a biochemistry degree and am a practitioner of naturopathic medicine. Although, my friends give me a hard time for never referring to myself as "Doctor." I always found it too formal, but I have grown past the need for accolades. Depending on who you ask, some don't consider me a physician. Given my specialty in natural medicine, I have been called everything from "quack" to "witch doctor." Believe it or not, I take that as a compliment. The choice to go into alternative medicine was conscious and deliberate.

My medical specialty is naturopathic medicine, a subset of medicine. Think of your family doctor, but instead of using drugs and surgery first and knowing little to nothing about diet and exercise, I use drugs second, and I am an expert in nutrition, exercise, and supplements.

My specialty is "integrative endocrinology." It's the study of hormones & metabolism. The integrative part means that I integrate both conventional and alternative methods. Most of my career has been helping the most difficult metabolic cases lose weight.

I have a license in California & Washington State and can prescribe all drugs except Schedule I & II. I am not opposed to pharmaceuticals and do use them; I prefer to lean on lifestyle change and natural approaches first. I only prescribe drugs if necessary. There is a time and a place for both.

I am also a psychology geek and student of philosophy (my favorites are stoicism and Taoism). I am currently working on my PhD in transpersonal and integral psychology. My area of research is focused on human connection, meaning, and fulfillment.

What else can I tell you? I have more life coaching certifications than I can count, and I did extra shifts in couples counseling in school (I am fascinated by romance and read research on the topic regularly). I also went through an affair and a divorce. I betrayed (my wife) and was betrayed (by the person I fell in love with).

It was the best and worst experience of my life. Have you ever had an experience where you were so hurt, disappointed, and embarrassed by your behavior that you hit rock bottom and became a new person? Yeah, that's what happened to me. This is why I write, blog, and podcast on relationships and romance.

I feel I have learned and earned this expertise. I have both the intellectual knowledge and first-hand experience of loss from both sides.

I am a voracious reader of anything related to self-development. My two favorite things are working out and reading. Some people like beers and ballgames, which are great, but I prefer books and barbells.

Finally, I am an author. In my field of medicine, we have a principle called Docere. It means "doctor as teacher." That's what I spend most of my time doing now: teaching through writing. I write books and create online educational products on metabolism, fitness, and personal development. I teach in three distinct areas: "mind, muscle, and metabolism."

Magda Kay | Achieving Perfect Intimacy

Wed, 10 Jul 2024 16:12:50 GMT

I was born in Poland, a post-communist country, and had access to things most people can only dream of. My family and I went skiing twice a year, traveled abroad, and lived in huge apartments. I took private English and Italian classes, played tennis, and danced. Even as a child, I loved performing and was often on TV and big stages.

However, when my father went bankrupt, we lost our house, and my parents had to move to the countryside, leaving me and my brother behind. At 17, I was on my own, living independently and having to support myself.

I moved to Milan, Italy. My life was pretty good; I worked in fashion and had a vibrant social life. But one day, I received a diagnosis: they found pathological changes in tissue during my PAP test. At 25, I learned I may have cancer, and everything changed. At work, I was told they would fire me if I had to go back to Poland for treatment.

I moved to Malaysia, where I had my first relationship at 27. For the first time, I was in love. Unfortunately, things didn't last long. I struggled with intimacy issues and fell into depression, even having suicidal thoughts. I attempted to hurt myself but eventually found healing through ThetaHealing and chose to study and become a practitioner.

Later, my Tantric school closed down due to allegations of rape and abuse, and I realized I had been living in a sex cult. Although I had learned Tantra and received healing, I came to understand how toxic and patriarchal the community was. I had to work on healing from the dogma and re-learn what it means to be a woman and what femininity truly is.

The supposed "love of my life" turned out to be a toxic relationship. Initially, I thought I had met my soulmate. We traveled around the world and planned to have kids, but my nervous system was in constant fight-or-flight mode. He started dating a much younger woman and asked me to open the relationship. It was then that I found the strength to leave. I needed a lot of time to heal from the experience. I lost a significant amount of weight and struggled to trust men again. I was also at my lowest point financially, with just $1,000 in my bank account.

After doing deep work on myself, I recovered emotionally and financially. I made more money than ever, reconnected with my dreams, and started investing in my future. I moved to Bali, started doing CrossFit, and rode bikes. I made my first investments and reintegrated the healthy masculine into my life. I felt more vital than ever and finally felt my drive was back.

Following this journey, I launched The School of Intimacy, an online academy with courses on every aspect of love, relationships, and sex life.

Additionally, I launched my first book: "No More Faking It," and spoke at major events worldwide. I remained 100% committed to my vision and felt unstoppable, happier, more balanced, and more supported than ever before. I finally stopped waiting for a relationship to make me happy and found ways to prioritize my happiness. I learned to create my joy and pleasure regardless of my relationship status, feeling secure and grounded. My relationship with myself was more vital than ever.

Jemmita’s mission: By respectfully and generously sharing her wisdom through Ceremony and Mentorship, she wishes to assist others in becoming creators of their reality and transforming their lives in the way she has profoundly transformed her own.

Katia Stern | How to Empower Women

Fri, 17 May 2024 20:11:07 GMT

I was born and raised in Moscow, Russia, and moved to Canada when I was 17. I spent much of my 20s and 30s following the path I believed was expected of me: I received a degree in Psychology and Law, and I earned a Master’s degree in International Law. Despite the accolades, I was unfulfilled and wondered if my life had a higher purpose.

I started fearing my age, feeling like my life was wasted on unimportant stuff, and it felt like time had ‘tick-taken’ away without me even noticing.

Then, I was in a terrifying accident at my family’s cabin outside of Moscow. A fire almost took my life, and everything changed. I can still remember breathing in amid the suffocating smoke and wondering if I was taking my last breath. I survived the fire and was left in wonderment at how little time separated me from death. It shifted my perspective, and after years of wasting time and pursuing what others expected of me, I finally started living for myself.

At 42 years old, I decided to forget everything I’d learned that was considered “proper,” instead, I began living by a new rule – the “What if?” rule. I asked myself, ‘What if there’s an answer to my questions on the other side of some crazy idea? What if there’s happiness and satisfaction?’ I taught myself to listen carefully to those risk-taking thoughts, and now I act on them. The results are always a win simply because I believe it is always better to do something, even if you fail, rather than regret not doing it.

Quantum Engineer Tom Paladino | What is Divine Energy or Scalar Light?

Sat, 13 Apr 2024 23:23:24 GMT

Tom Paladino is a Christian, husband, researcher, and humanitarian who aims to bring Scalar Light healing to the world to improve the quantum health of humanity. He began researching Scalar Light during his undergraduate years after developing a deep admiration for Nikola Tesla, the Father of Scalar Light research and development. Starting in 1993, Tom studied research notes and operated Scalar Light instruments developed by another Scalar Light expert, Galen Hieronymus. Tom attributes much of his success today to these two brilliant Scalar Light pioneers.

There are two energies in the universe: Scalar Energy and electromagnetic energy. Scalar Energy is divine energy, and the Sun, our solar system, and the stars serve as the "storehouses" for this divine light. The laws that govern Scalar Energy are distinct from those that govern electromagnetic energy.

Tom Paladino has devoted a significant portion of his humanitarian efforts to helping Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) with outreach programs. NGOs are made up of action-based program developers and a community of like-minded people committed to making sustainable, humanitarian-oriented impacts worldwide.

Mon, 11 Mar 2024 16:08:10 GMT

IHow oona do? (Gullah Geechee for “How are you?”)

I’m a Singer/Songwriter/Writer/Performer. My creative and performance energies for more than 30 years have filled many with cultural appreciation, celebration, encouragement, and joy!

I've been recognized as a cultural preservationist for my original songs, writings, performances, and presentations. If you in any way have found meaning, understanding, \or Aha!-moments about Gullah Geechee culture or heritage through any of my efforts, I am deeply honored!

I’m about making a difference and sharing the truth. I use that “big voice” I’ve had since I was a young boy, leading spirituals and gospel songs in my St. Helena Island, SC, community and making listeners feel the lyrics and not just hear them. Writing and performing songs with keen and piercing stories and sometimes jes plain jokey (or fun).

I am a recipient of the 1996 South Carolina Order of the Palmetto, the State’s highest honor; the 1997 State of South Carolina Folk Heritage Award, given for lifetime achievement and excellence in folk art that has enriched the lives of the people in their community and state; 1998 Daytime Emmy Award nominee and presenter; the 2007 South Carolina African American Heritage Commission’s Lifetime Achievement Award; and an inductee in the 2013 Penn Center 1862 Circle.

"The Wolf of Wall Street" Ex-Wife Nadine Macaluso Discusses Trauma Bonding

Mon, 26 Feb 2024 00:43:59 GMT

As a 22-year-old, Nadine never could have understood what she was committing to when marrying Jordan Belfort, the fraudulent stockbroker infamously known as "The Wolf of Wall Street."

Their eight-year marriage began as a fairytale, filled with romantic dinners, expensive gifts, and lavish parties. But once they were bonded, Jordan’s ‘mask’ began to slip, and acts of infidelity, narcissistic abuse, insatiable greed, and uncontrollable drug addiction became Nadine’s living nightmare. Nadine naively believed that their connection was real and that her love could save him, so she remained trauma-bonded until the pain of their relationship became too much to bear. It would be decades before she realized her story resembled thousands of other women’s relational experiences.

At 30, Nadine packed up her kids and her curtains and left Jordan, relocating to Los Angeles, California.

She began a transformative process of intensive therapy and deep self-reflection, which required facing her pain, admitting and owning her mistakes, and reconnecting with the authentic self she’d lost due to Jordan’s abuse. Through her healing, a passion for helping others was born. She returned to school at 39 to become a psychotherapist and, ten years later, graduated with a PhD in Counseling and Somatic Psychology.

Dr. Nae’s private practice quickly flooded with women recounting an all-too-familiar story of abuse with a pathological partner.

Her goal of helping people develop healthy relationships took on a life of its own as she realized that trauma bonds were increasingly prevalent and destroying the lives of hundreds of women. Nadine embarked on a twelve-year journey of learning about domestic violence. She combined her academic background with her experience and that of her patients, eventually leading her to become an industry expert in narcissistic abuse, trauma bonds, and complex PTSD.

Wade Williamson | True Story About A Self Defense Murder Case

A South Carolina man who told 911 dispatchers that he shot his friend in self-defense has now been charged with murder. Local media reported that Berkeley County sheriff’s deputies said this week they have charged 34-year-old Wade David Williamson III with murder, a week after a shooting at his home near Summerville.

Thirty-five-year-old Liam Owen Vernon of Summerville was shot three times on April 8 at Williamson’s home. Williamson is also charged with possession of a weapon during a violent crime. It was not known if he has an attorney yet. Williamson told dispatchers that he and Vernon had been getting along all night until Vernon hit him in the jaw. Williamson said Vernon continued to hit him, so he shot him.

Five years later, the case was dropped.

Shaman Rhonda McCrimmon | Learn Ancient Healing Wisdom of Celtic Shamanism

Sat, 10 Feb 2024 22:34:23 GMT

Rhonda McCrimmon is a shamanic teacher who brings the ancient wisdom of Celtic shamanism to life. This spiritual tradition dates back to pre-Christian times in northern Europe and emphasizes the importance of balancing the body's three energy centers or "cauldrons" to achieve physical, spiritual, and emotional health.

The three cauldrons are the Cauldron of Warming, the Cauldron of Motion, and the Cauldron of Wisdom. Rhonda McCrimmon takes readers on a journey to activate, nurture, and maintain each cauldron's unique potential.

The Cauldron of Warming is the source of our inner knowledge and can be depleted by past traumas, leaving us anxious and fearful. Rhonda teaches you how to replenish this cauldron and restore inner peace and security.

The Cauldron of Motion represents our capacity to love and nurture. It is on its side at birth and fills as we experience deep grief or joy. Rhonda shows you how to balance this cauldron, establish healthy boundaries, and protect yourself from emotional drain.

The Cauldron of Wisdom is the source of a profound connection with nature. It is upside down at birth, but once righted, it can provide one of the most sublime gifts of Celtic spirituality. Rhonda guides you on how to activate this cauldron and receive this gift.

With self-reflections and other exercises, Rhonda McCrimmon helps readers activate and balance their inner cauldrons, dispel fear by tapping into innate wisdom, work through past traumas, foster love, nurture emotional resilience, and manifest their creative potential through rituals and meditations.

The book also explores the tradition of Celtic fire festivals and the sacred practice of saining. Rhonda invites readers of all ancestral roots to explore this ancient wisdom and begin their journey down the shaman's path.

Author Morgan Lerette | Blackwater Iraq: Guns, Girls, and Greed

Tue, 06 Feb 2024 03:28:11 GMT

Experience the world of private contractors conducting high-threat missions for a nascent Iraqi government in the hopes of rebuilding after the fall of Saddam Hussein. With limited support, the men of Blackwater protected US diplomats as the country descended into sectarian violence. It was a hazardous mission complete with rockets, mortars, improvised explosive devices, and not knowing who or where the enemy was.

Morgan Lerette’s irreverently honest memoir shows the good and bad of injecting private armies into active combat zones in the name of diplomacy and digs deep into the bonds of brotherhood created by war. With gut-wrenching tragedy, dark humor, and parties that make Animal House seem like a Disney film, this memoir offers a firsthand perspective on how men act and react in war.

Lerette, a private contractor employed by the notorious Blackwater in the early days of the Iraq War, pulls no punches in calling out the incompetence of both the US military and the Department of State during the collapse of Iraq. You can decide if the insertion of private contractors in Iraq assisted or detracted from the war effort and if the costs in blood and treasure were worth the carnage.

Journalist Lauren Brill's Guide to Strength & Compassion

Fri, 26 Jan 2024 12:51:03 GMT

Lauren Brill is a seven-time Emmy-nominated and AP-award-winning journalist. As a television broadcaster, I was a sports anchor and reporter for the ABC affiliate in Cleveland, the CBS affiliate in Buffalo, and MSG Varsity in the New York metropolitan area. Also, I have written features for several nationally known outlets, including NBA.com, WNBA.com, NikeWomen.com, ESPN’s Girl Mag, and womensprosoccer.com.

In 2019, I combined my writer and television journalist skills to create The Unsealed. I ghostwrite all the featured letters, provide commentaries, and host a weekly interactive show called Unsealed Conversations. People Magazine, ESPN, ABC, The New York Post, and E! Online are among the outlets that have acknowledged The Unsealed’s work.

In our first year, The Unsealed reached more than a quarter-million people in 182 countries.

At Columbia University, I majored in sociology, focusing my studies on the impact of sports on society. The Unsealed is a platform where we help people write and exchange inspirational open letters that reveal strength and encourage compassion. Our mission is to use diverse voices and experiences to empower and unite people.

My career as a sports journalist, working for ABC (Cleveland), CBS (Buffalo), MSG Varsity (New York), and NBA.com, led me to create The Unsealed. Enlightened and inspired by the athletes I covered in 2017, before the #MeToo movement, I mustered up the courage to share what was once my darkest secret. I wrote an open letter to sexual assault survivors detailing my personal experience with sexual violence. My letter went viral around the country.

Sharing my story made me feel unstoppable. So much so that I started The Unsealed to provide a space where people of all races, genders, sexual orientations, and socioeconomic backgrounds can be heard and supported while motivating and educating others.

Our letters come from many people, including high-profile athletes, entertainers who have overcome tremendous adversity, and parents who want to improve the world for the next generation.

As a member of The Unsealed, you can enter our writing contests. You can share your stories, connect with PenPals, and ask our members for advice. You can engage in our discussions on our weekly live interactive show, Unsealed Conversations. Also, as a member, you receive access to exclusive content while supporting our goal of catalyzing social change.

We may experience the world differently, but our letters unseal the humanity that connects us all.

Dante Vicino | How to Build Doomsday Bunkers

Sat, 06 Jan 2024 17:54:33 GMT

Robert Vicino and his son Dante lead the Vivos Project. Robert is an entrepreneur with a successful background in manufacturing, marketing, and real estate development on a global scale. In 1980, he was struck with building a shelter deep underground to protect 1,000 people from a potential life-extinction event. This idea was so vivid and compelling that he abandoned everything and began searching for an underground cave or abandoned mine that could be fortified to create a massive shelter to save as many people as possible. Although this occurred decades ago, the idea continues to drive the Vivos Project forward.

The Vivos project was initiated in 2008 as a privately funded endeavor to provide life-assurance shelter solutions to as many people as possible in any disaster. The founder was inspired by his belief that this was his true calling, and he had the unique skills to accomplish it. However, it was an enormous responsibility for him, as he had to risk being ridiculed and invest years of his life and savings to help others.

Robert and Dante have accepted the responsibility of bringing the Vivos network to life worldwide with great humility and gratitude. They lead a team of experts in diverse fields such as engineering, architecture, construction, medicine, psychology, healthcare, nutrition, law, constitution, finance, management, logistics, manufacturing, security, and self-defense. Each team member is dedicated to making the Vivos network a reality.

Writer Max Marshall | Learn About College of Charleston Drug Dealers

Sun, 31 Dec 2023 20:09:26 GMT

Max Marshall is a writer and journalist. Raised in Texas, he attended Columbia University, where he graduated summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa in 2016. He served as a Princeton in Asia Media Fellow in Hanoi, Vietnam, and his work has appeared in GQ, Texas Monthly, Sports Illustrated, and the New York Times. He lives in Austin.

“Among the Bros" is a harrowing and disturbing book. This book will blow your mind, each page digging deeper into the unimaginable. Except every word is true.”—Buzz Bissinger, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Mosquito Bowl and Friday Night Lights. A brilliant young investigative journalist traces a murder and a multi-million-dollar drug ring, leading to an unprecedented look at elite American fraternity life.

When Max Marshall arrived on the campus of the College of Charleston in 2018, he hoped to investigate a small-time fraternity Xanax trafficking ring. Instead, he found a homicide, several student deaths, and millions of dollars circulating the Deep South. He also opened up an elite world hidden from outsiders. Behind the pop culture cliches of “Greek life” lies one of the primary breeding grounds of American power: 80 percent of Fortune 500 executives, 85 percent of Supreme Court justices, and all but four presidents since 1825 have been fraternity members. With unprecedented immersion, this book takes readers inside that bubble.

Under the live oaks and Spanish moss of Travel + Leisure’s “Most Beautiful Campus in America,” Marshall traces several “C of C” boys’ journeys from fraternity pledges to interstate drug traffickers. The result is a true-life story of hubris, status, money, drugs, and murder—one that lifts a curtain on an ecstatic and disturbing way of life. With expert pacing and an excellent eye, he follows a never-ending party that continues after funerals and mass arrests.

An addictive and haunting portrait of tomorrow’s American establishment, Among the Bros is nonfiction storytelling at its finest.

Businessman Lev Parnas | Inside Trump's White House, Putin, & Biden Ukraine Scandal

Sat, 16 Dec 2023 23:58:54 GMT

Lev Parnas is an American businessman who, under the direction of Rudy Giuliani, found himself expressing and sometimes dictating U.S. policy in Ukraine. Giuliani was using Parnas to find compromising material on the Biden family that he could use in his 2020 Presidential campaign against Joe Biden.

This podcast was created to provide an alternative perspective on American politics not influenced by corporate outlets. As an independent voice, Parnas offers a viewpoint closer to what regular people think rather than what they are told. He is neither right nor left, searching for answers like everyone else. This podcast is dedicated to presenting an eye-opening look at American and international politics, and only some people are as qualified as Parnas to be a veteran commentator on U.S. politics.

Parnas made deals with Eastern European oligarchs to gain his insight, including expelling the U.S. ambassador to Ukraine. He was a trusted member of Donald Trump’s inner circle and witnessed all of the scandals up close and in real-time, paying a grave price for his involvement.

Through his connections with Trump, Giuliani, their staffs, allies, operatives, and media people, as well as those overseas, Parnas offers a savvy but fresh perspective on how things work in government, both domestically and internationally. He has appeared on major media outlets, including CNN, MSNBC, CBS, BBC, and Reuters. He has even earned an Emmy Award nomination for one of his appearances on The Rachel Maddow Show.

Lev Parnas is based in Boca Raton, Florida, but travels frequently to New York City, Washington D.C., and abroad.

In one of America's most notorious prisons, a young man sentenced to life without parole miraculously found faith, forgiveness, redemption, and restoration. In 27 Summers, Ronald Olivier shares his dramatic and powerful story and offers proof that God can bring healing and hope to even the darkest circumstances.

As a teenager, Ronald Olivier ran wild in the streets of New Orleans, selling drugs, stealing cars, and finally killing someone on what was supposed to be the happiest day of the year—Christmas Day. Facing the consequences of his crime, he remembered what his mother once said. "Baby, if you ever have real trouble, the kind that I can't get you out of, you can always call on Jesus." So he did.

Ron was sentenced to life in prison without parole. Through the agony of solitary confinement and multiple transfers into increasingly dangerous prison environments, Ron kept seeking God for healing and hope. Finally, after being locked up for twenty-seven summers at the notorious Louisiana State Penitentiary—known as Angola—Ron was miraculously released. Remarkably, he became the director of chaplains at Mississippi State Penitentiary. Today, Ron loves to combat hopelessness, wherever he finds it, by saying, "Don't tell me what God can't do!”

Undercover Agent & Author Mike J Powell | How to Go Undercover

Wed, 18 Oct 2023 03:35:38 GMT

Mike Powell’s blood and guts stories go far beyond his days working as a plainclothes officer in one of LAPD’s Zebra Units—a unit tasked with tracking down violent criminals in South Central L.A. “Shootin’ Newton” was notorious for its many police shootings, including the Black Panther and Symbionese Liberation Army shootouts. Two of Mike’s four shootings occurred in Newton.

Mike and his partners tracked down murder suspects, bank robbers, and a serial killer: a killer of young boys. Mike’s police stories take us back to the days when cops were allowed to be cops and when police chiefs like LAPD’s Ed Davis and Daryl Gates sent former military “warrior cops” into the streets to hunt down violent criminals.

Mike also served as a key undercover operative for both the LAPD, undercover as a woman, and the federal government, undercover in the MAFIA, and he lived to write about it. If you’ve seen the movie Casino, then you have seen the mobsters he brushed shoulders with.

Mike ended his investigative and undercover career after he received several death threats, and his home was set ablaze while he and his first wife, Manette, were in it.

Luke Messac, MD, PhD | How Hospitals Charge Patients

Sun, 15 Oct 2023 01:34:20 GMT

I am an emergency physician and a historian. In my clinical work, I am an attending physician at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and an Instructor in Emergency Medicine at Harvard Medical School. I received my BA from Harvard University, MD and PhD from the University of Pennsylvania, and completed residency training in emergency medicine at Brown/Rhode Island Hospital.

My research focuses on the history and political economy of health care and on diagnostics for emergency care in resource-limited settings. Recently, I have written about international opiate regulations, population control campaigns, feminist critiques of the GDP, and hepatitis C diagnostic technologies.

My first book, No More to Spend (Oxford University Press, 2020), is a history of medical neglect and exploitation in Malawi. This book was named a CHOICE Outstanding Academic Title.

In my current research, I aim to use machine learning to improve early warning scores and diagnose emergent conditions in settings of clinical impoverishment.

I am also writing a history of medical debt collection in the United States. This book, Your Money or Your Life, is under contract with Oxford University Press and scheduled for publication in Fall 2023. It tells the story of how the collection of medical debt in the United States has transformed over the last several decades and how this impacts Americans’ lives.

Pulse Nightclub Survivor & Activist Brandon Wolf | Surviving a Mass Shooting

Fri, 29 Sep 2023 17:32:05 GMT

Brandon Wolf is a nationally recognized gun safety and LGBTQ civil rights advocate and dynamic public speaker. He serves as the Press Secretary for Equality Florida, the state’s LGBTQ civil rights organization.

On June 12, life changed for Brandon. He crouched in a bathroom while a gunman opened fire at Orlando’s Pulse Nightclub, killing his best friends, Drew Leinonen & Juan Guerrero, and 47 others. Rather than be swallowed by the anger and fear of tragedy, Brandon set out to honor the victims’ legacies with action.

In the immediate aftermath of the shooting, Brandon co-founded The Dru Project, a nonprofit organization that works to empower youth and provide funding for higher education for future leaders in the LGBTQ community. The organization has given over $100,000 in college scholarships to rising leaders. He also became an outspoken activist in the gun violence prevention movement, partnering with March For Our Lives, Everytown, Giffords, and others to demand legislative solutions to the epidemic. In 2019, he became the first survivor of the tragedy at Pulse Nightclub to testify before Congress.

A powerful public speaker, Brandon Wolf is a frequent guest on MSNBC (The Reid Out & American Voices), CNN, and in print publications (CNN.com, USA Today, Newsweek, Teen Vogue, Washington Post, The Advocate, Out Magazine) weaving his story into calls to action. HuffPost has recognized him as one of “30 modern-day LGBTQ pioneers” and Business Equality Magazine as one of 40 LGBTQ Leaders Under 40.

In all things, Brandon is driven by the reminder that we are obligated to honor those we’ve lost, not with empty words or hollow platitudes - but with action.

University of Cambridge Professor Giles Yeo MBE | How the Calorie System Doesn't Work

Tue, 19 Sep 2023 18:07:41 GMT

Giles Yeo MBE is a British-American biologist. He is the professor of molecular neuroendocrinology at the Medical Research Council Metabolic Diseases Unit and scientific director of the Genomics/Transcriptomics Core at the University of Cambridge.

"Why Calories Don't Count"

The calorie information is ubiquitous. On packaged food, restaurant menus, and online recipes, we see authoritative numbers that tell us the calorie count of what we're about to consume. And we treat these numbers as gospel—counting, cutting, intermittently consuming, and, if you believe some 'experts' out there, magically making them disappear. We all know, and governments advise, that losing weight is just a matter of burning more calories than we consume. But it's all wrong.

In Why Calories Don't Count, Dr. Giles Yeo, an obesity researcher at Cambridge University, challenges the conventional model and demonstrates that all calories are not created equal. He addresses why popular diets succeed, at least in the short term, and why they ultimately fail, and what your environment has to do with your body weight.

America Ninja Warrior Daniel Gil | How to Win a TV Show Competition

Fri, 15 Sep 2023 18:54:31 GMT

Daniel was born and raised in Houston, TX. The second oldest of five kids who were all homeschooled, Daniel was always a fun-loving adventurer. Growing up, he spent much time outdoors, climbing trees and playing sports. Fun fact: he wasn’t very good at any sports he played as a kid. He loved being active and was competitive enough not to quit when things got tough. During high school, his focus turned to new passions such as singing, dancing, acting, and the performing arts. He also became more involved in his home church through music ministry.

After graduating high school, he attended a two-year ministry school, received an associate degree, and simultaneously began coaching & training at Iron Sports Ninja Gym. In 2015, he began his rookie year competing on season 8 of American Ninja Warrior and, thus, his journey to becoming one of the top athletes on the show. That season, they launched him into his athletic career with accomplishments like 8 x National Finalist and the 2020 Champion of American Ninja Warrior title. He was also selected to compete on multiple All-Stars episodes and USA VS. The World Competitions. He was a team captain of seasons 1-3 of Ninja vs. Ninja and even had the opportunity to travel abroad to compete internationally in Ninja Warrior Indonesia, representing Team USA.

This recognition and success gave Daniel opportunities to begin traveling and become a motivational speaker. His goal is to use his platform to help inspire people to get back up when they inevitably fall or fail, overcome the obstacles they will face, and never stop pursuing their God-given dreams.

The Dubai Housewife Linda Andrade | How to Hustle in Dubai

Thu, 17 Aug 2023 18:57:23 GMT

Dubai-based socialite and entrepreneur Linda Andrade recently took to TikTok to reveal the downsides of living a life of wealth as the wife of millionaire Ricky Andrade, a renowned Forex and Crypto trader.

The 23-year-old Jordanian-born influencer, also known as the 'Original Dubai Housewife,' has over 529,000 followers, who tune in to learn about her glamorous life. Linda, who married Ricky at the tender age of 19, has been living a life of opulence, starkly contrasting to her earlier life in the US, where she grew up in a one-bedroom apartment with her family. In a video that garnered over 11 million views, Linda listed the 'worst things about being with a millionaire,' expressing concerns over 'always having to look 10/10', 'being bought too much stuff', and the fear of getting robbed due to her expansive collection of designer bags and luxury jewelry.

Despite living a life many fantasize about, Linda shared that 'the novelty of riches can soon wear off.' The couple's constant traveling is another cause of discontent for her, along with the fact that 'women want my man' and the struggle to drive herself anywhere. Linda's complaints, however, were met with little sympathy from social media users, with many offering to trade lives with her or questioning if she was being ungrateful.

Even so, the stunning spa owner and beauty influencer continues to use her growing social media platforms to offer an insider's view of the wealthy lifestyle and promote her husband's business ventures. From the Maldives to Hawaii and Miami, Linda's Instagram showcases her travels, luxury life, and entrepreneurial journey as the owner of a fat-freezing spa.

Despite the pushback from some viewers on TikTok, others used humor to respond to Linda's video or expressed admiration for her lifestyle, proving once more that the opulent lives of the wealthy will always be a source of fascination and controversy.

Chef Keith Corbin is the two-time James Beard Award-nominated executive chef and co-owner of Alta Adams, The Los Angeles Times bestselling author of “California Soul”, and a sought-after public speaker.

While growing up in the Jordan Downs housing projects in Watts, Corbin was involved with gangs and drug dealing, eventually leading to his incarceration. In prison, he first started cooking and working in kitchens, which eventually led to a job with the LocoL restaurant group run by celebrity chefs Roy Choi and Daniel Patterson. From there, Corbin partnered with Patterson on Alta Adams, a "California Soul" food restaurant utilizing local produce and healthier ingredients to put Corbin's spin on the food he grew up cooking and eating with his grandmother. Alta was named one of the best restaurants in the country by Esquire, Thrillist, and the Los Angeles Times and called "Black Hollywood's top restaurant" by The Hollywood Reporter.

Corbin's bestselling memoir, “California Soul: An American Epic of Cooking and Survival" was published in 2022 by Random House, named the LA Times Book Club pick of the month for August, and quickly optioned by a major studio to be made into a television series. Since the book’s release, Corbin has appeared on Dr. Phil, The CBS Morning Show, and many other national programs to share more about his incredible story and inspire others. His words have been featured across multiple media outlets, including KCRW, The Grio, ABC7, Salon, Shondaland, and Thrillist. In 2023, the book was nominated for a James Beard Media Award in the Literary Writing category.

Consistently giving back, Corbin regularly mentors youth from underserved communities and speaks at colleges and educational programs nationwide.

Fighter Pilot Hasard Lee | How to Think Clearly

Mon, 07 Aug 2023 19:46:33 GMT

HASARD LEE is a U.S. Air Force fighter pilot who began his career flying the F-16, where he was selected as the 'Top Instructor Pilot of the Year' for the Air Force's largest F-16 Combat Wing.

As a flight commander, he led his pilots into combat during one of the most intense periods during the War in Afghanistan. There he flew over eighty combat missions and became the only fighter pilot to fly two types of jets into combat on the same day while supporting troops under fire.

Hasard was then hand-picked to fly the F-35―the most advanced and expensive weapons system in history―still in development. During his last role on active duty, Hasard became the Chief of Training Systems for the most extensive training base in the world, leading the development of new technology and teaching methods to train future fighter pilots.

Hasard's first book, "The Art of Clear Thinking," was a #2 Wall Street Journal Bestseller. In the book, he distills what he’s learned during his career flying some of the Air Force’s most advanced aircraft. With gripping firsthand accounts from his time as a fighter pilot and fascinating turning points throughout history, Hasard reveals powerful decision-making principles that can be used in business and life.

Hasard is also a content creator with one of YouTube's most viewed military aviation channels. Since the start of 2021, he has had over 100 million views on YouTube and has reached over 290 million people across social media.

Hasard regularly speaks to organizations and businesses on improving their decision-making, increasing innovation, and cultivating mental toughness.

Former Death Investigator Barbara Butcher | How to Approach an Autopsy

Mon, 24 Jul 2023 02:12:15 GMT

Barbara Butcher was early in her recovery from alcoholism when she found an unexpected lifeline: a job at the Medical Examiner’s Office in New York City. The second woman ever hired for the role of Death Investigator in Manhattan, she was the first to last more than three months. The work was gritty, demanding, morbid, and sometimes dangerous—and she loved it. WHAT THE DEAD KNOW: Learning About Life as a New York City Death Investigator is the page-turning memoir of Barbara Butcher’s more than twenty-year career.

Butcher (yes, that is her real name, and she has heard all the jokes) spent day in and day out investigating double homicides, gruesome suicides, and most heartbreaking underage rape victims who had also been murdered. In WHAT THE DEAD KNOW, she writes with the kind of New York attitude and bravado you might expect from decades in the field, investigating more than 5,500 death scenes, 680 of which were homicides. In the opening chapter, she describes how, just from sheer luck of having her arm in cast, she avoided a booby-trapped suicide. Later in her career, she describes working on the nation’s largest mass murder, the attack on 9/11, where she and her colleagues initially relied on family members’ descriptions to help distinguish among the 21,900 body parts of the victims.

This is the fascinating and stunning real-life story of a woman who, in dealing with death daily, learned surprising lessons about life—and how some of those lessons saved her from becoming a statistic herself. Fans of Kathy Reichs, Patricia Cornwell, and true crime won’t be able to put this one down.

Extraterrestrial Radio Show Host George Noory | What is Paranormal Phenomena

Sat, 15 Jul 2023 21:43:42 GMT

George Noory, host of the nationally syndicated program Coast to Coast AM, says he'd be in politics if he weren’t a national radio talk show host. Heard by millions of listeners, Coast To Coast AM airs on nearly 620 stations in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and Guam.

While hosting The Nighthawk, a wildly successful, late-night program on KTRS in St. Louis, Noory was recruited by Premiere Radio Networks to guest host on Coast to Coast AM with Art Bell. Following Bell's retirement, he became the permanent host of the phenomenally successful overnight program on January 1, 2003. Since then, Noory’s audience has continued to grow.

Noory captivates program listeners with his discussions of paranormal phenomena, time travel, alien abductions, conspiracies, and all things curious and unexplained. He is driven, he has said, by the desire to solve the great mysteries of our time. From his first days as a radio broadcaster, he says, “I’ve wanted to cover stories that the mainstream media never touch—the unusual, the paranormal, and things like that. I learned that broadcast was the best business for exploring these issues, and I’ve been doing it for 33 years.”

He dates his interest in these matters to a book by Walter Sullivan, We Are Not Alone, that his mother gave him when he was 13. He was hooked.

Noory released his first book in 2006. "Worker In The Light: Unlock Your Five Senses And Liberate Your Limitless Potential," co-written by best-selling author William J. Birnes, is Noory’s revolutionary guide to spiritual enlightenment, human empowerment, ultimate productivity, and absolute happiness. Noory and Birnes co-authored a follow-up in 2009 entitled Journey to the Light, in which they present amazing first-hand accounts of how ordinary people changed their lives, transcended their doubts and fears, and unlocked the secrets to their spiritual growth. In October 2011, Noory released his third book, Talking To The Dead. Co-written by Rosemary Ellen Guiley, a leading expert on the paranormal and supernatural, the book explores the colorful history and personalities behind spirit communications, weaving together spirituality, metaphysics, science, and technology. Noory, Richard Belzer, and David Wayne released "Someone is Hiding Something: What Happened to Malaysia Airlines Flight 370?" in February 2015. Scrutinizing the theories the media and politicians claim are the "most likely" reasons the plane crashed, they argue that if a year after a huge Boeing 777 has gone missing, and there’s still no sign of it, it’s time to think outside the box.

In December 2012, GAIAM TV launched "Beyond Belief with George Noory," a new TV show exploring the unknown and mysteries of the universe. The one-hour weekly series features Noory’s informative, investigative, and dynamic conversations and some of his favorite guests from the radio program. Taped at GAIAM studios in Boulder, Colo., Beyond Belief with George Noory is available exclusively at beyondbelief.com. Noory has also appeared on the History Channel's Ancient Aliens, SYFY, The Larry King Show, and numerous others.

He was born, raised, and educated in Detroit. He has three children and six grandchildren. He served nine years in the U.S. Naval Reserve.

As an entrepreneur, writer, speaker, philanthropist, and mother – I’ve been engaging in the personal transformation industry for over 19 years, collaborating and playing with leading thinkers and teachers in consciousness, relationships, human performance, and life optimization.

I started my career working for the government of Estonia, where I was born and raised, before I joined the non-profit sector and worked for organizations such as the United Nations, Oxfam, and AIESEC. In 2003, I co-founded Mindvalley – a global school that delivers transformational education for all ages.

In 2009, I launched Mindvalley Russian, taking Mindvalley’s best authors and teachings to the Russian-speaking market.

Rafael Moscatel is the author of the best-selling business book Tomorrow’s Jobs Today and director of The Little Girl with the Big Voice, a critically acclaimed documentary. His third book, The Bastard of Beverly Hills, a memoir, will be published in 2023 by JIA Publishing.

Raised in Los Angeles, California, by a Sephardic family from the Isle of Rhodes, Rafael spent the first thirty years of his life in relative darkness, unaware that he’d been given up for adoption. A long, winding, emotional journey back home, not to four walls but to a place where he could finally feel comfortable in his skin, forced him to examine his sordid past through a sobering and heartbreaking lens. His amusing yet often tragic struggles with abandonment, addiction, and faith, recounted first in a documentary about his biological kin and now in a new memoir about his adopted family, remind us all of our spiritual strength and serve as a testament to the power of hope, forgiveness, and redemption.

"As The World Turns" Actress Martha Byrne | Speaks Up After Conviction of Husband, Michael McMahon

Wed, 05 Jul 2023 00:57:12 GMT

Three-time Emmy Award-winning actress, writer, and producer with a career spanning over thirty years. After playing the role of “Lily” on the soap opera As the World Turns for 19 years, the focus went behind the camera. After leaving As the World Turns, I created and produced several successful streaming series, “Gotham” (Emmy nomination), “Weight” (WGA Winner), and Anacostia (Emmy Award). Several scripted and non-scripted projects are in development, including projects with Red Hour (Ben Stiller), Zero Gravity (Ozark), and Hallmark Channel. Served at Knocking, a start-up in 2020, as Supervising Producer of Original Content, producing, writing, and directing e-commerce segments and programming for syndicated and national media partners nationwide. Shows launched in 2020-2021 generated millions of dollars for media and brand partners. Philanthropic work has been a cornerstone, having served on the Professional Advisory Board for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, raised over 15 million dollars for the organization, and married a retired NYPD Detective/Sgt. Michael McMahon, since 1994, has three children, Michael, Max, and Ann Marie.

2023: A jury found a former New York City police sergeant and two Chinese citizens guilty on nine counts on Tuesday in a landmark federal trial involving a suspected Beijing-backed operation aimed at repatriating a Chinese fugitive living in New Jersey.

Charged in the nearly three-week trial were former police officer-turned-private investigator Michael McMahon and two Chinese citizens – New York residents Zhu Yong, 66, and Zheng Congying, 27 – for involvement in a three-year repatriation and intimidation effort against a Chinese fugitive on US soil.

All three were found guilty of conspiracy to commit interstate stalking. McMahon and Zhu were also found guilty on charges of acting as unauthorized agents of a foreign government.

Without spiritual knowledge, material technology is leading us to a global catastrophe on Earth. Technology should assist in spiritual development and not be used (as it is used now) to confine and enslave people within a monetary system and materialistic world, which are both temporary anyway. No matter how much we defend our current beliefs, doctrines, and traditions, nothing can change the truth and the order established in the universe. Believing is not enough.

The purpose of the universe and our life on Earth.
True dangers in life, surpassing the atomic destruction.
Conscious reincarnation, life after death, Big Bang, creation, evolution, astral travel, telepathy, levitation, development of the mind, aura and its significance.
Over 1.3 million years of past civilizations on Earth.

FBI Whistleblower Steve Friend | What He Saw During The Jan. 6 Investigations

Mon, 19 Jun 2023 22:52:09 GMT

Stephen Friend had his dream job as an FBI special agent. After nearly a decade of combating violent crime, human trafficking, and child predators, he was reassigned to the FBI’s unprecedented investigation of the political unrest at the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021. Friend soon uncovered efforts by the FBI and Department of Justice to manipulate statistics and exaggerate the nationwide threat of domestic terrorism. Friend spotlighted how the politicized FBI was cooking the books to support an ongoing narrative from the Joe Biden administration to label Donald Trump voters as violent extremists. Friend witnessed overzealous practices to harass conservative Americans and realized the FBI was turning its investigative processes into a punishment. When the married father of two made his bombshell allegations in a whistleblower disclosure, leaders within the FBI exposed themselves as partisan, ambitious players who insisted that January 6th protestors killed police officers and attempted to seize American democracy. Hell-bent on suppressing Friend from exposing the truth, FBI officials seized his gun and badge and suspended him from working as a special agent. In this memoir, Friend reflects on the lessons and life experiences that led him to ultimately risk his career to uphold his FBI special agent oath to protect and defend the United States Constitution against all foreign and domestic enemies.

Siavash Fashi CEO & Founder of SixPax Gym | How to Build a Successful Small Gym

Thu, 15 Jun 2023 03:14:02 GMT

Siavash Fashi is an entrepreneur, bodybuilder, CEO, and founder of SixPax Gym. Siavash overcame incredible adversity to become the successful entrepreneur he is today. He escaped his home country of Iran, where bodybuilding was illegal, to pursue his dream of becoming a bodybuilder in California. Now an expert in losing body fat and gaining muscle, he helps clients change their lifestyles, workout effectively, and achieve consistent, long-term results. With 25 years of bodybuilding experience, he has owned his gym and trained clients for over a decade and now teaches other trainers and entrepreneurs how to open a small but lucrative gym of their own.

As a small, skinny kid, Siavash faced poverty, illness, and political turmoil. Growing up in war-torn Iran, Siavash found inspiration in bodybuilding, which was illegal in his country. After he was diagnosed with cancer in his right eye at 18, Siavash knew he had to escape Iran to pursue his dream of becoming a bodybuilder. He spent seven years as a refugee in England before finally making his way to the United States, only to be arrested upon arrival for using a fake passport. Siavash spent his first year in the US in a maximum-security federal prison, and when he was released, he was homeless. Despite these challenges, Siavash never gave up on his dream and started his gym with no money.

Today, he is the CEO and founder of SixPax Gym in Culver City, California. Through hard work and determination, Siavash built SixPax Gym into America's most successful small gym with a system that catapulted him to millionaire status. But to Siavash, his success isn’t just about the money he’s earned; it’s about the lives he’s changed. He’s living the American dream now, but he never forgets where he came from and is passionate about paying it forward by helping others achieve their dreams.

Using his step-by-step formula, Siavash demonstrates to other trainers how to build profitable SixPax gyms from nothing. He promotes small, community-minded gyms that focus on hands-on, intentional training to get results for clients. Siavash’s inspiring book Small Gym, Big Results is a testament to the power of determination and hard work. It provides aspiring gym owners and trainers a roadmap to build their dream fitness business.

Winner of the NPC Gold Coast Overall Men’s Bodybuilding competition and Mr. California Master Class, Siavash holds a PFTA Master Trainer certification and a 2nd-degree black belt in Taekwondo. He’s living on the beaches of Los Angeles, where he enjoys his muscle car, his Harley, and hanging out with his dog Milo.

Sports Anchor & Author Lisa Cornwell | How Sexism Affects The Workplace

Sun, 11 Jun 2023 17:16:07 GMT

After working my way up the ladder in the television sports world—hosting and reporting at some of the most significant events of the past two decades—it was time for a change. Even though the change wasn’t by my design, it was still very much needed.

As a successful two-sport athlete growing up in Arkansas, pursuing a career in this industry made perfect sense. When I reached the network level covering golf exclusively, I felt I had credibility. Why do we, as women, struggle with our validity significantly more than our male counterparts?

Golf has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I won my first of four Arkansas Women’s State Championships at 14—still the youngest in state history—and was a two-time AJGA First-Team All-American. But perhaps what I’m most proud of is being the first scholarship player in women’s golf at the University of Arkansas in the post-Title IX era.

My television career included stops in Mississippi, Tennessee, Ohio, and then Chicago, working for the Big Ten Network. But my big break happened in 2014 when I landed what was supposed to be my dream job at Golf Channel. Little did I know how quickly that would all change. As I would soon learn, the misogynistic boys’ club culture—which had plagued the network from its early days—was still running rampant throughout the company. Unfortunately, many in the executive offices and on the management team only perpetuated these deeply-rooted problems.

Soon after making my story public on January 1, 2021, as detailed in the Washington Post, upwards of 30 women reached out to me privately about their encounters of mistreatment. Sadly, most of these women have been unable to speak out because of Non-Disclosure Agreements they signed after losing their jobs. Others fear voicing their struggles will blackball them in the industry moving forward. Trust me, I understand. Either way, it’s both heartbreaking and infuriating.

I hope that revealing these truths in my soon-to-be-released memoir, Troublemaker, it unites women and brings about change; that the people running companies who repeatedly make unfair decisions toward women and minorities finally get exposed and are forced to change—or cast aside if unwilling to do so; that HR departments around the world become places that protect the employees, not their employers. It’s astonishing how many people lack any faith in their own HR departments to make their work lives better.

I want Troublemaker to serve as a reminder to these persecutors that we aren’t going away. I want it to empower women who’ve been silenced out of fear of losing their jobs to speak up and to do it loudly. Elie Wiesel once said, “Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.”

May we all be (good) “troublemakers” together so that books like this will no longer be necessary one day.

Singer-Songwriter James Talley | Making it in Country Music

Mon, 15 May 2023 20:03:43 GMT

James Talley is an Oklahoma born folk-country-blues singer/songwriter, whose career now spans over forty years. His name has been mentioned alongside Woody Guthrie, Merle Haggard and Bob Dylan, and praised for the quality of his songwriting and his wise, expressive voice. Noted author and music critic, Peter Guralnick has said of James’ work, “There are few singer-songwriters who could produce a collection of such magnitude coupled at the same time with such lightness, beauty, and all-out social conscience. Woody Guthrie never wrote a more direct or affecting song than “Richland, Washington”; Bruce Springsteen never wrote a more powerful one than “Tryin’ Like the Devil.”

Upon moving to Nashville, James discovered that the commercial music business was not attuned to the kind of honesty he wrote about in his songs, so he went to New York to meet the late John Hammond, who became his first mentor. Hammond championed the unique vision in his writing in the early 1970s as he had the careers of Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen and Bruce Springsteen.

Hammond, however, could not convince Columbia in New York to sign James’ more country-flavored sound, so he sent him to his friend Jerry Wexler, whose Atlantic Records was starting a new Country division in Nashville at the time. Wexler signed James to his first recording contract at Atlantic Records in 1972 along with Doug Sahm and Willie Nelson. Atlantic’s Nashville operation, however, did not do well at the time and Atlantic closed its Nashville office. James then moved to Capitol Records where he released four now legendary albums during the mid-1970s: Got No Bread, No Milk, No Money, But We Sure Got a Lot of Love (1975); Tryin’ Like The Devil (1976); Blackjack Choir (1977) and Ain’t It Somthin’ (1977). ROLLING STONE, and other music publications, have declared these albums American classics.

James performed twice at The White House for President Jimmy Carter, and at the Smithsonian Institution, and in other concert venues around the United States and in Europe. B.B. King played guitar on James third album, Blackjack Choir, in 1976, marking the first time the legendary bluesman had ever recorded in Nashville. Johnny Cash, Johnny Paycheck, Alan Jackson, Hazel Dickens, the late Gene Clark, and most recently Moby, among others, have recorded his songs.

Music author David McGee has called James Talley’s work startlingly original. Legendary music producer, Jerry Wexler, who remained friends with James until his death, said, “You remain for me one of America’s greatest songwriters.” CMT columnist, Chet Flippo, called him “one of the best singer-songwriters to ever come out of Nashville.”

James is a life member of Nashville Local 257, American Federation of Musicians, and is a board member of the Nashville American Federation of Television and Radio Artists. He and Janice spend their time now between their home near Santa Fe, NM and Nashville.

Psychic Medium & Author Bill Philipps | How to Connect with Spirit

Tue, 02 May 2023 16:08:23 GMT

"We Will Always Grow If We Let The Light Guide Us."

I have been fascinated with death, the deceased, and the afterlife for as long as I can recall. There I was, just a young boy, seeing spirits and not knowing what to make of it! Despite my panic and fear, I thought these experiences were “normal.” I mean, didn’t every kid at school see them too? Sadly, no, others were not experiencing what I did. Even more frustrating was that I couldn’t find the right words to explain the feeling and sensation inside me when it happened. My mom would tell me I had watched too many scary movies. After a while, I started to accept her well-intentioned, rational explanations, and these experiences eventually faded away.

Then my world ended at the age of 14 when I suffered what I thought at the time was a horrible tragedy. Little did I know it would lead me on my life’s journey. My mom and I lived on opposite coasts when she suddenly fell ill, and I raced to her with barely enough time before she passed away. Upon her death, I was at a loss for words. How could she be gone? Two days later, I woke in the middle of the night to see my mom standing before my bed in spirit. I can still remember opening my eyes and seeing the room illuminated with a beautiful light. I thought I was dreaming at first but soon realized this was no dream. She spoke to me and told me she was all better and not to worry about her anymore. Over the next three years, my fascination with her death and this experience compelled me to research it further and investigate “the other side.”

I remember an experience hanging out with some friends and randomly walking into a psychic’s reading room, part of a strip mall. Before I could open my mouth, the psychic began to tell me that I was highly gifted but not ready to accept this truth about myself just yet. It would be a few years before I truly understood what she meant. Soon after I turned 18, and after feeling more and more drawn for answers, I found myself alone, attending a lecture on mediumship, or at least I thought this was a lecture. I soon realized that it was a class on developing your psychic skills and that this particular night was a special class on mediumship. How convenient! The moment I walked in, the two teachers greeted me, and both marveled at how my energy filled the room.

This lovely middle-aged woman asked me a question, and one of the teachers instructed me to close my eyes and then say what I was seeing, feeling, hearing, etc. I did precisely that, but it didn’t feel special; it was just what she told me to do. When I opened my eyes, though, the nice woman was shocked, speechless, and couldn’t believe all the validations I had just shared with her.

They referred to my suddenly validated gift as "the golden link" to the other side, and I made it my mission to hone my skills by practicing with friends. Within one month of doing professional readings, I finally accepted this was a part of who I am. This gift was my true calling, and I was grateful for the opportunity to help others.

Author & Lawyer Justin Brooks | California Innocence Project

Mon, 01 May 2023 00:23:10 GMT

Attorney Justin Brooks is known for his extensive legal work over many years to overturn wrongful criminal convictions. He has dedicated his career to this cause and is currently the Director and Co-Founder of the California Innocence Project. He has practiced in the area of criminal defense in many states, including Michigan and Illinois. He has also taught courses at Georgetown Law Center and Thomas M. Cooley Law School and is presently a tenured professor at California Western School of Law. Justin Brooks is also the author of the only legal case book focused on wrongful convictions.

Justin has received several accolades throughout his career, including designation as one of the Top 100 Lawyers in California by the Los Angeles Daily Journal and receiving recognition as “Lawyer of the Year” in 2010 and 2012 by California Lawyer Magazine. He has also worked in Latin America to train lawyers for the past twenty years. As a co-founder of Red Inocente, an organization devoted to founding and supporting various innocence organizations in Latin America, he continues to devote his career to the cause of overturning wrongful criminal convictions.

The Exoneration of Brian Banks

Justin Brooks and The California Innocence Project worked tirelessly to overturn the wrongful conviction of Brian Banks, who was charged with rape and kidnapping after a consensual sexual encounter. At the time, Brian Banks was only seventeen years old and was widely considered to have a bright future playing football in the NFL. The false rape accusation drastically changed the course of his life, as he was faced with the difficult decision of choosing whether to proceed to trial and risk forty-one years to life in prison if found guilty or to accept a plea deal for just over five years in prison. Brian chose to accept the plea deal, which also came with the cost of destroying his dream of playing football and requiring him to register as a sex offender.

Together with The California Innocence Project, attorney Justin Brooks presented evidence of Brian Banks’s innocence in these crimes. Evidence in his favor included the alleged victim stating that she fabricated the story. After another review of the evidence, the District Attorney’s Office agreed that Banks was wrongfully convicted. In May of 2012, a Los Angeles Superior Court judge reversed his conviction.

Banks’ story has a happy ending. After his exoneration, Justin Brooks spoke out to the press on behalf of his client and asked NFL teams to give Brian a chance at playing football. Shortly after, Brian received calls from six different NFL teams expressing interest.

Ultimately, Brian Banks played for the Cincinnati Bengals during one NFL season. Though his time playing in the NFL was brief, following the 2013 football season, Brian accepted a position working for the NFL’s Department of Operations in the replay center. In this position, he also helped contribute to the league’s social media.

Brian’s story garnered such public interest that it was made into a film that premiered at the Los Angeles Film Festival in September 2018. The movie features Academy Award-nominated actor Greg Kinnear playing the role of Professor Justin Brooks and will premiere in the US in August 2019.

Author of "I, Alien Memoirs of a UFO Spy" Tony Topping | Did Humans Come From Aliens?

Wed, 19 Apr 2023 02:18:26 GMT

I have extensive knowledge and experience with UFOs and alien encounters spanning over fifty years. My forthcoming book, "I Alien: Memoirs of a UFO Spy," offers a unique perspective on the subject matter. It includes imagery and footage of UFOs I have filmed, incorporating image analysis. The narrative contains a shocking human interest story involving contact with aliens and explores the impact on mental health. My close encounters have inspired my digital artwork. There is also a high probability of capturing UFO sightings while filming a world encounter.

In addition to being an author, I have contributed to various media outlets, including ITV This Morning, Lads Bible, The One Show, Channel 4, Channel 5, BBC 2, Sky Arts, Sony Pictures, and E4 Tattoo Fixers. I have also written for Australian Paranormal Magazine, Oddities, Outer Limits, and French magazine OVNI and Italian Magazine.

My book, "I Alien: Memoirs of a UFO Spy," reinvents the wheel of how stories of extraterrestrial contact are told. It includes a chronicle of my involvement in an operation called SCOVS or Special Contact Operation Very See, from 2001 to the present day. It is a story of an advanced alien communication network, where the future speaks to yesteryear, and human military agencies not governed by time clash with each other and establish communication with unknown foreign forces.

"The Good Nurse" Amy Loughren | How to Overcome Any Situation

Mon, 10 Apr 2023 22:24:39 GMT

Amy Loughren is an American reiki master and former registered nurse who is known for assisting in the arrest and prosecution of serial murderer Charlie Cullen.

Before his apprehension, Cullen and Loughren were friends who both worked the night shift in the intensive care unit at Somerset Medical Center in Somerville, New Jersey. Loughren was a single mother of two children and hiding her cardiomyopathy from her employers, with some help from Cullen, in whom she confided.

In 2003, Loughren was approached by detectives who suspected Cullen of poisoning hospital patients. The patient who triggered law enforcement interest was Florian Gall. As a patient at Somerset Medical, Gall had been improving; then, he suddenly died of a massive heart attack. An autopsy showed that he had been administered digoxin. It was not on his prescription list. In small doses, digoxin can improve heart function, but the amount Gall had received was lethal. After consulting with her 11-year-old daughter, Loughren agreed to assist law enforcement.

Independent of the police investigation, Loughren noticed that Cullen's medical charting was irregular. It was at points muddled and hasty, and there were frequent misspellings. The hospital's tracking system also showed Loughren that Cullen spent unusual amounts of time on the files of other nurses' patients.

As part of the investigation into Cullen, Loughren met with him at a diner, wearing a wire. Because she had just had a pacemaker installed, the police did not want her to wear the wire, but she insisted. “The truth is I didn’t know how this would affect my heart, but I knew I needed to go in there and get that confession,” she said in an interview with Vanity Fair. During Loughren's meeting with Cullen in the diner, he did not overtly admit to the murders, but he said that he would "go down fighting." The evidence from the meeting allowed the police to arrest Cullen. After he was arrested, Loughren encouraged him to make a full confession, which then supported his convictions for 29 murders.

Loughren struggled with the fact that her friend was a serial murderer and with her role in apprehending him: "And he wasn't a mercy killer. He was a cold-blooded murderer. And for me to not have seen that, I did struggle."

Laura Gassner Otting | How to Find Yourself In The Workplace

Tue, 21 Mar 2023 21:45:39 GMT

Author, Catalyst, and Executive Coach Laura Gassner Otting inspires people to push past the doubt and indecision that keep great ideas in limbo by helping audiences think bigger and accept more significant challenges that reach beyond their current, limited scope of belief.

She delivers strategic thinking, well-honed wisdom, and perspective from decades of navigating change across the start-up, corporate, nonprofit, political, and philanthropic landscapes. Laura dares audiences to find their voice and generate the confidence needed to tackle larger-than-life challenges by helping them to seek new ways of leading, managing, and mentoring others.

Laura’s rebellious and entrepreneurial edge has been well-honed over a 25-year career that started when she dropped out of law school to join an unknown southern governor’s presidential campaign and ended up as a Presidential Appointee in Bill Clinton’s White House, where she helped shape AmeriCorps.

She left a leadership role as the youngest Vice President at a nationally respected search firm when she realized that her boss’s definition of success didn’t align with hers and, instead, founded and ran one of the fastest-growing search firms in the country, partnering with the whole gamut of mission-driven executives, from start-up dreamers to scaling social entrepreneurs to global philanthropists. In 2015, Laura sold that firm to the team that helped her build it because she was hungry for the next chapter and held an audacious dream of electing our nation’s first female president. (Whomp whomp.)

Since then, Laura has appeared regularly on Good Morning America and the TODAY Show, and her writing has been seen in Harvard Business Review, Forbes, HR Magazine. Laura is the author of Limitless: How to Ignore Everybody, Carve Your Path, and Live Your Best Life (2019), which debuted at #2 on the Washington Post bestseller list (right behind Michelle Obama), has been translated into Arabic, Korean, Turkish, Portuguese, and German, and which Good Morning America’s Robin Roberts chose as one of her Favorite Books of 2019, as well as Mission-Driven: Moving from Profit to Purpose (2015). Her forthcoming book, Wonderhell, is expected in April 2023.

Through her commitment to giving back, Laura has helped build a local Montessori school, co-founded a women’s philanthropic initiative, advised a start-up national women’s PAC, grew a citizen-leadership development program, and completed five charity-inspired marathons, projects emblematic of her passions and values. The audacity of The Big Idea turns her on, and you can’t seem to shake that larger-than-life goal. She’s an instigator, a motivator, and a provocateur, and she’s never met a revolution she didn’t like. Ask her enduringly patient husband, two almost-grown sons, and troublesome puppy with whom she lives outside of Boston, MA.

When Dire Straits finished touring in 1993 John became heavily involved in the Art world. Having carved a reputation for himself as a painter, John had solo exhibitions in London, New York, Sydney and across Europe. He also co-founded the children’s charity Life Education in 1987 which recently was integrated into Coram, one of the oldest UK charities.

John also owns a pub, the East End Arms in the New Forest.

Zion Clark | American wrestler, professional mixed martial artist, & wheelchair racer with NO Legs

Thu, 09 Mar 2023 20:40:16 GMT

Zion Clark was born September 29, 1997, in Columbus, Ohio. with a rare birth defect called Caudal Regression Syndrome, which caused him to be born without legs. Given up for adoption at birth with a mother not fit to take care of him and no father, Zion had to fend for himself from a young age. His childhood was a recipe for disaster; bouncing around between the foster care system and being labeled a problem child caused the system to give up on him early. Zion didn’t let his stop him from learning new skills; he picked up wrestling and music at a young age, which became his outlet from an abusive living situation. Through resiliency and consistency, Zion continued to figure out how to approach some of these passions and earned his position as an All-American wrestler and lead drummer of his church. He continues to defy all odds with his optimistic approach and the no-no-excuse mentality he embodies.

Zion was introduced to wrestling while in elementary school but didn't fare very well...in fact, he didn't win a match for several years. Upon entering Massillon High School, Zion met Coach Gil Donahue, who recognized his passion for the sport and relentless work ethic. A wonderful friendship and bond was forged.

Over the next 3 years, Zion improved his wrestling technique and hit the weight room like a man possessed. A fantastic transformation followed!

In his senior year, Zion finished the season 33-15 and was one match from qualifying for the D-I Ohio High School State Wrestling Championships. With incredible heart and determination, Zion wrestled his opponent (a 20 pd. weight differential) beyond the grueling 6 minutes of regulation and 2 overtimes...only to fall 1-0 in sudden death.

The fans in the packed gymnasium rose to their feet and zealously applauded Zion's courageous effort. A few months later, Zion captured his second high school track wheelchair racing title at the state championships.

Several colleges recruited Zion to wrestle and chose to attend Kent State (Tuscarawas)...where he spent the following 2 years steadily improving his skills and finding success at the varsity level.

With his confidence and national ranking on the rise, Zion decided to embark on his toughest mission to date...becoming the first American Athlete to compete in both the Olympic (wrestling) and Paralympic (wheelchair racing) Games in Tokyo (2020).

Understanding the magnitude of this complex challenge, Zion has surrounded himself with a very dedicated and highly supportive team...including budding friendships with Olympic/World Champion Jordan Burroughs and undefeated (133-0) 4x NCAA Titleist Joey Davis.

Due to his tremendous upper body strength and athleticism, Zion is also pursuing interests in powerlifting (bench press), wheelchair bodybuilding, and the circus arts.

Zion's herculean efforts hadn't gone unnoticed as a Hollywood producer documented his journey during his senior year. The film "Zion" garnered critical acclaim at the prestigious Sundance Film Festival (2018) and global media exposure (it's currently available on Netflix).

In addition to his brutal training/practice regimen, Zion stays busy as a motivational speaker.

Mountaineer & Cancer Survivor Lisa Thompson | How to Climb a Mountain

Tue, 17 Jan 2023 16:06:57 GMT

“An outstanding mountaineering memoir” My first memories involve spending long days outside exploring the woods and cornfields around my childhood home with my dog and Sister. These explorations were all at sea level; the highest point in my home state of Illinois is 1,235 feet. Gradually, my explorations led me to Seattle, where the allure of Mt. Rainier drew me to the mountains. After standing on its summit in 2009, I knew mountaineering would become a significant part of my life. I am still drawn to the physical and mental challenge of mountaineering, and I relish the sense of accomplishment that comes with a successful climb, even if it doesn't include the summit.

I learned resilience and self-reliance in the mountains and built my confidence as a climber and woman. My strength and confidence were tested when I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015. Through treatments and surgeries, I drew upon the things that I had learned as a climber - to focus on what I could control, to surround myself with a strong team, and to keep moving forward even when things felt bleak. While I was fighting cancer, the mountains took on a broader meaning for me as I also found tremendous healing there.

Beating cancer provoked me to evaluate the trajectory of my life. In 2016, I made the excruciating and terrifying decision to put my secure, hard-earned corporate career on hold to pursue other passions.

Today, I am grateful to enjoy a life of mountain climbing, writing, and speaking. I am inspired by sharing the story of how climbing gave me the strength to beat cancer.

American Expert Card Mechanic Richard Turner | How to Understand Our Sensibilities

Thu, 12 Jan 2023 20:42:28 GMT

Playing the hand you’ve been dealt isn’t just a figure of speech for Richard Turner... it’s a way of life.

Richard Turner is a 68-year-old resident of San Antonio, Texas, who is widely considered to be the best card mechanic and one of the most skilled up-close magicians in the world. His exceptional talent, wit, composure, and eloquence have made him a highly sought-after stage performer and a motivational speaker for Fortune 500 companies. Over the years, he has mesmerized and entertained millions of people, including notable figures like Johnny Carson, Bob Hope, Colin Powell, Brad Pitt, Muhammad Ali, among others.

Richard has received numerous awards and nominations for his mastery of the art of magic. Among them is the prestigious "Close-up Magician of the Year Award," which is the magic industry's equivalent of the Oscar. His unparalleled ability to handle a deck of cards has been showcased on various worldwide television shows, including an unforgettable performance on "Penn & Teller: Fool Us," where Penn Jillette praised him by saying, "Richard Turner is one of the most accomplished sleight-of-hand artists in history. He fooled us with every single move he made!"

In addition to being the world’s most skilled card shark, Turner is a 6th-degree karate black belt. His black belt test – ten rounds, each lasting three minutes, against a fresh opponent every round – was so grueling it was televised and featured on the front page of the Los Angeles Times Sports Section.

Turner has also designed and created a series of board and puzzle games and produced a bestselling DVD series on advanced card techniques that casinos and card players worldwide study. Due to his remarkably delicate “feel” for individual playing cards, he has been the Touch Analyst for U.S. Playing Card Co., the largest card manufacturer in the country, known for producing the finest quality cards preferred by professional magicians and gamers.

But what makes all of Turner’s accomplishments genuinely incredible is that he is blind – and has been since childhood. Turner contracted a retina degeneration disease when he was nine, and his sight quickly diminished. “One day, I could see the blackboard; the next day, I couldn’t,” he says.

As a teenager, Turner’s anger and despair over his blindness drove him to drugs and then to drug dealing. At an early age, however, he found that being blind empowered him to develop an enhanced sense of touch, and once he picked up a deck of cards, his life changed.

“I developed my mind’s eye to an exceptional degree,” Turner says. “And I tested myself through the risky mental and physical challenges of martial arts fighting, shark hunting, cliff-diving, and the high stakes of underworld gambling.”

Turner is like no one else on the planet, so his story is similarly unique. Like his incredible mind, his adventures transcend time and space. As such, his story focuses on his almost superhuman physical abilities, martial arts prowess, and wizardly card skills, all of which serve as the framework for his life story.

Author & Actor Gianni Russo | How to Survive Being a Mobster

Thu, 15 Dec 2022 21:11:22 GMT

Gianni Russo has made a career of playing tough guys. Although remembered most for his portrayal of Carlo Rizzi in “The Godfather”, his first acting job, his career has spanned over 40 films, including such hits as The Freshman, Rush Hour, Any Given Sunday, and Sea Biscuit as well as television roles in Kojak, The Rockford Files and Prison Break. And most recent.. due out this fall, “Send No Flowers”.

Russo believes his crooning separates him from the mob of other on-screen wise guys. His debut CD, Reflections, paid homage to legendary singers like Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra. These icons inspired him both personally and professionally. The CD, available on iTunes and Amazon.com, contains a bonus track where Russo reminisces about the behind-the-scenes drama while filming “The Godfather”. Russo travels the country with his orchestra to sold-out appearances, performing the music that has influenced his Life. His follow-up CD was released in June 2010, and his self-titled wine label Gianni Russo Wines launched nationally in 2009.

Born in Manhattan and raised in Little Italy and Staten Island, Russo overcame polio to start his first “business” at twelve, selling pens and erasers on the street corners. At eighteen, Russo made his first trip to Miami, where he began to dabble in show business, working in nightclubs and hotspots before deciding to pursue acting and move to Hollywood.

Russo’s colorful life is currently being adapted into a feature film by producer Brett Ratner (Rush Hour, Horrible Bosses, Red Dragon, and is currently filming the sequel to King Kong). Screenplay was written by George Gallo of “Midnight Run” fame, “Bad Boys” and “Middle Men”, and to be directed by Barry Levinson of “Diner” & “Taxi” fame. Available now is disk 1 of “The Godfather Stories By: Carlo Rizzi a.k.a. Gianni Russo”, with 9 more volumes coming soon!

Mr. Russo currently resides in New York, and this summer is doing personal appearances throughout the United States, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic and Panama.

Veteran Brett D'Alessandro, Founder of "Backpacks For Life" | How to Start a Non-Profit

Thu, 17 Nov 2022 14:22:34 GMT

Sergeant Brett D'Alessandro returned home from a seven-month deployment in Afghanistan, thinking it was the end of a long journey. However, he soon realized that an even longer and more difficult journey filled with struggle and confusion lay ahead.

After a challenging deployment, Brett came home and was thrown into the process of reintegrating into civilian Life. He struggled to figure out his next steps - returning to school, finding a job, or continuing his military career. During this time, Brett was also struggling with his health - mentally and physically. His spouse, Alexa, was by his side but felt unequipped and uneducated in how to support him through this transition. A chance encounter with a homeless veteran on the streets of Rhode Island turned Brett and Alexa’s entire situation around.

Brett was on his way to a doctor's appointment at the Newport Naval Base in Rhode Island when he saw a homeless veteran by the side of the road. He took this opportunity to give the veteran his backpack from deployment, filled with socks and warm layers. This simple act inspired Brett to establish Backpacks For Life. He realized that the issue of homelessness among veterans was a nationwide problem that needed to be addressed. Brett was determined to help his fellow servicemen and women struggling with the trauma of returning home and not knowing where to turn.

Backpacks For Life (BFL) has been committed to supporting homeless and at-risk veterans since 2014 by providing backpacks and mentorship programs. The BFL team provides personalized assistance to veterans in need, helping them find the right supportive services. They achieve this through personal interaction that spans countless hours, as well as the physical distribution of backpacks. These backpacks serve as the first line of defense, representing hope and so much more to the BFL team.

Healer Tina Clarke | How to Learn Reiki

Wed, 13 Jul 2022 16:38:05 GMT

As a young girl, I always had an innate ability to pick up on the emotions of those around me and notice details that others would often overlook. I have always been an empath, and I could feel the energies and emotions of others. I was afraid of the dark because I had a strong sense that I was being watched and was not alone. In 2012, I had my first psychic reading, which opened the door to the world of metaphysics for me. Actually, the door was always there, but I had closed it a long time ago because I didn't understand the messages that I was receiving (feelings, pictures, thoughts, and smells). After training and studying many metaphysical subjects, I began to realize that the information I was receiving was valid and not random. My purpose is to assist individuals who have tried various methods to heal and are willing to explore effective means of healing and approaches that will heal their souls, remove obstacles, and enable them to move forward joyfully and authentically in life.

He is also a singer who can effortlessly switch from a soulful falsetto to a gospel shout while precisely striking his drums, cymbals, and programmed pads. Ravenel is the leader and focal point of his group, Quentin Ravenel & Friends.

Ravenel comes from a family of musicians and singers. His mother, Helen Freeman, is a well-known singer in the Lowcountry, and his brother, Stephen Freeman, tours as a keyboardist for Mary J. Blige. Regarding his singing, Ravenel considers his mom his most significant influence. He is also inspired by more prominent names such as Anderson Paak, whom he admires for his ability to sing, rap, and play drums. Ravenel drums for another award-winning band, Ben Fagan & the Holy City Hooligans. He is influenced by Ben Fagan and Chris Brown as well.

Ravenel learned to play the drums before he learned to sing. He cites many percussionists who motivated him to play in his youth, including Eric Moore, Buddy Rich, Dennis Chambers, Mitch Mitchell, and Nate Smith.

Playing the drums and singing simultaneously is not easy, and Ravenel acknowledges that it has taken years of practice to master both skills. His most significant challenges are choosing the right songs he can execute gracefully as he plays the drums and remembering lyrics.

Healer Tina Clarke | How Stones Give You Different Energies

Fri, 18 Mar 2022 23:00:00 GMT

As a young girl, I always had an innate ability to pick up on the emotions of those around me and notice details that others would often overlook. I have always been an empath, and I could feel the energies and emotions of others. I feared the dark because I sensed that I was being watched and not alone. In 2012, I had my first psychic reading, which opened the door to the world of metaphysics for me. The door was always there, but I had closed it long ago because I didn't understand the messages I was receiving (feelings, pictures, thoughts, and smells). After training and studying many metaphysical subjects, I realized that the information I received was valid and not random. I aim to assist individuals who have tried various methods to heal and are willing to explore effective means of healing and approaches that will heal their souls, remove obstacles, and enable them to move forward joyfully and authentically.

Creator Jeremy Littel | How to Be a Influencer

Mon, 27 Sep 2021 15:00:00 GMT

Jeremy was born in Kenosha, Wisconsin, where he had a knack for cracking jokes from a young age. Despite being labeled as the class clown, he was still beloved by his teachers. As he grew older, Jeremy began working in customer service, and his fun-loving attitude led to jokes and pranks with his coworkers. In 2008, Jeremy tied the knot with Brittany Stinson and moved to Winona, Minnesota. Two years later, he started working at Sauk City Specialty Products, which is now known as Kickass Snacks. His primary role was to meet with current customers and educate distributors about the products. With his gift of gab, Jeremy excelled in his job, and the company grew rapidly.

On September 11th, Jeremy posted his first ice fishing video which became an instant hit and went viral. He continued to post fishing videos and some jokes, while also taking a trip to Talladega to watch his friend win the truck races. During the road trip, Jeremy started telling "Little Johnny" jokes and posted them on TikTok. These jokes were also an instant hit and helped grow his following to over 100,000 within a week. Jeremy continued to post jokes and fishing videos, along with some motivational content and even created a separate TikTok page to recreate his jokes.

However, when Covid-19 hit in the spring of 2020, his business, Kickass Snacks, suffered a major setback. They lost nearly 80% of their wholesale business. But with his million followers on TikTok, Jeremy took to the platform to discuss his business and seek help. His followers rallied together and helped save Kickass Snacks by placing over 2500 orders in just 10 days.

Throughout the Summer and early fall months things were starting to slow down and he wasn't sure if he wanted to continue making videos but then something happened. Jeremy started to get messages and comments that his videos were changing people's lives. The laughter that they brought was helping them with their depression and days when nothing seemed to go right. It wasn't until Jeremy received a direct message on Instagram that he knew he had a real purpose to be on TikTok.

He was sent a message from someone stating that they were going to watch five videos that day, and at the end of that, he was going to end his life. Jeremy's video was the last video that he saw and it made him laugh so hard that he knew his life was worth living. This is what kept Jeremy posting, and his motto is, "Make at least one person smile today."

In October 2020 Jeremy decided to add his kids to the regimen of daily comedy on his backup page and it took off like a bat out of hell. His now backup page became the main page and there was now a new way to hang out with the kids and have fun. Jeremy and his boys and sometimes daughter create jokes in the way of how "Little Johnny" would act and it's what the people seem to love. He will continue to do this with his family until people start to lose interest.

Since the start of TikTok, Jeremy has gotten involved in a multitude of other platforms where you can see all of his material. When asked where he sees himself in five years, he says he's taking it one day at a time and riding the wave. As long as people are laughing and smiling and need someone to bring that little glimpse of happiness in their lives, he's here to stay.

Dr. Curves Andrew Jimerson | How to Do Plastic Surgery

Fri, 09 Apr 2021 17:00:00 GMT

Throughout history, people have always desired to look younger and feel better about their appearance. Traditional plastic surgery procedures only focused on correction through excisional methods, often resulting in unnatural, operated-on appearances.

In 2006, a young woman asked Dr. Jimerson for a tummy tuck and liposuction of her love handles. She jokingly asked if he could use the fat from the liposuction to enhance her buttocks. The plastic surgery community knew very little about this procedure at the time. However, Dr. Jimerson, being an innovator, agreed to perform the process for her.

Advanced Plastic Surgery Solutions is a new plastic surgery practice in Atlanta that specializes in the latest techniques for cosmetic and reconstructive surgery. Dr. Andrew Jimerson II, who received outstanding training, brings his expertise to this John’s Creek practice. He fell in love with Atlanta during his undergraduate education and then traveled to Ohio for medical school. He was one of three medical students from across the nation selected to train in plastic surgery at the Ohio State University Medical Center.

For the past 12 years, I have been educating myself and my followers on fitness, nutrition, and well-being. I introduced a new genre and fitness style in 2008 via YouTube and my first company, BodyRockTV. My short and intense workouts, which require only your body weight and minimal equipment such as a jump rope, kettlebell, or sandbag, became increasingly popular and have generated hundreds of millions of views worldwide and new opportunities for me. Along this incredible journey, I had the chance to work with one of the best production companies in Los Angeles and produce 10 DVD titles, publish my book "15 Minutes To Fit," work with massive stars such as Jillian Michaels, start a new company, Zuzka Light Productions LLC, and create four trendy meal plans. However, what I am most proud of is my ZGYM. ZGYM is an ongoing online program where you get to work out with me daily and learn new methods to take your fitness and well-being to the next level. It's like having a virtual me in your living room or pocket wherever you go. I created ZGYM to help you get into the best shape of your life, improve your performance, show you how to improve your posture and mobility to resolve pain and give you the best tools to empower you for life. I look forward to seeing you in the ZGYM!

Human Suffering Expert Teal Swan | How to Help Humans That Are Suffering

Mon, 22 Feb 2021 20:00:00 GMT

Teal Swan's mission is transforming human suffering into an empowered and authentic life. She is the creator of the renowned "Ask Teal" YouTube series, the author of six internationally published books, and the artist behind hundreds of frequency paintings. In line with her vision of creating positive change in the world, Teal Swan founded the HEADWAY FOUNDATION. This nonprofit organization supports ideas, goals, and ventures to foster positive change worldwide.

Teal Swan was born in Santa Fe, New Mexico, on June 16, 1984, at 7:42 a.m. She was born with various extrasensory abilities, which led to her being targeted and abused. In her own words: “Without the abuse and suffering I experienced, I would be someone who could provide a great deal of esoteric information about the universe, but who would lack a true understanding of human suffering and how to heal it. I would have only seen half of the picture of human existence. The gift of my suffering is that I now see the full picture, which has fundamentally changed my teaching approach.” Teal Swan is not recommended for those seeking comfort; she is better suited for those who desire the truth, even if that truth is painful. The reality is impartial; it isn’t personal and reveals what is.

She will reflect on aspects of humanity, the world, and the universe that are perceived positively. However, she will also address elements humanity struggles to accept, own, or integrate. When someone decides they are ready to confront the truth and reality, Teal Swan can illuminate any situation's physical and non-physical aspects. By acknowledging the truth and facing reality, individuals become empowered to take mental, emotional, and physical steps toward improvement based on their newfound awareness. Generally, spirituality and self-help can be classified into two categories. The first focuses on spirituality and self-help as a means for comfort and relief. The second emphasizes spirituality and self-help as paths to awareness and awakening. Individuals in the first group seek to feel good and view the spiritual and self-help resources as tools for achieving that goal. Conversely, those in the second group want to understand what is true and recognize that this knowledge enables them to effect changes leading to improved well-being, even if it means confronting uncomfortable truths. It’s reminiscent of the classic Matrix blue pill versus red pill scenario.

The sole axis of power and choice lies in embracing reality and acknowledging the truth. However, one must genuinely wish to confront the truth; it cannot be forced upon someone. Therefore, one of the most crucial steps is assessing your motivation for engaging in spirituality and self-help.

Not all truth is painful. Pursuing pain relief and the quest for healing often lead in conflicting directions. Teal Swan is a guide for those seeking the second path—individuals who wish to confront the truth, no matter how uncomfortable it may be, to awaken. In essence, Teal Swan represents the red pill.

Teal Swan’s ultimate intention is to set people free. Her mission is to foster awareness and consciousness, enabling individuals to begin healing and to lead deeply meaningful, integrated, and empowered lives. She travels the globe, teaching people the truths of the universe, helping them uncover their truths and how to transform their emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual pain.

Alyssa Ramos is a 33-year-old self-made Cuban-American travel blogger and social media influencer. She left societal norms behind eight years ago and has traveled the world since. Alyssa is an adventure junkie who loves pushing her limits, especially when people say she can't do something. She specializes in "solo female adventure travel," but her journeys are tame. Alyssa has visited over 85 countries and all seven continents, with her favorite destinations being Antarctica, Iceland, Japan, Svalbard, India, and the Amazon Rainforest in Brazil.

You may recognize Alyssa from her Instagram account ( @MyLifesATravelMovie ), where she takes "back-of-head" selfies to prove she can succeed without showing her face.

Alyssa worked hard to achieve her dream, and she inspires and motivates others to travel and pursue their dreams without fear.

Alyssa aims to inspire others to travel by sharing tips, information, and photography (which she learned through her travels!). If you appreciate her work, please consider signing up for her newsletter, sharing her blog with others, and following her on social media. Thanks to your supporters, Alyssa can continue traveling and sharing her experiences.
