Bio:

“As a #1 Best-Selling Author, Poet, Speaker, Life Coach & Super Connector, making living itself an art, David Charles Brower spends his life searching for love and creating abundant sensorial experiences everywhere he goes, wherever and whomever he finds himself with.
As The Sensorial Guy, and inspired by his own romantic personality, he inspires others globally to connect to each other in meaningful ways, to find useful joy in the everyday, create moments of romance daily and find pleasure in the small details and nuances of life. To seek relentlessly to fuse pleasure with purpose, sometimes a tad mischievously too…
Always from his intensively creative perspective, David expresses his love for life through writing, poetry, dancing, creating delicious meals in his professional home kitchen, gathering and hosting people, and helping others transform from the stage as a storyteller.
His former work experience was in world class international entertainment and cinema for over 20 years, which has also shaped his love for the creative process and people, and their stories, laying the foundation for his next adventure in love: writing his first short story. Dance of the Love Caterpillars is a romantic love story between two caterpillars that is aimed at romantics of all ages.
His work for the larger part of the last decade has been in developing his Sensorial Intelligence™ programs, events and lifestyle, and have been catalysts for the creation of this heartening story, Dance of the Love Caterpillars. This storytelling gem is a
universal romantic love story between two caterpillars, an inspiration to lovers and would-be romantics of all ages.
David, an American by birth, has chosen the city of love and pleasure, Paris, as his home for the last 30 years.”

A first generation Sicilian American, Paolina Milana had to play caretaker, secret keeper, and maintain a “normal” life while voices in her head worried her about her own sanity. In this beautifully written page-turner, Milana inspires us with her triumphs and resiliency and offers solace to anyone burdened with the role of caretaker to any family member with health issues.”

I have had it on my To-Do list for a few weeks now to send out an announcement about the launch of my strategy-filled online courses.

The Healing Place Podcast: Melanie Gibson – Hiding in Plain Sight with Mental Illness

Although Melanie had academic and career achievements throughout her life, she struggled with mental illness and low self-esteem. After making some progress through psychiatric treatment and counseling, she knew she needed to do something more substantial to make lasting changes. Returning to taekwondo had always been in the back of her mind, and the timing was right.

Join me for an insightful conversation with author and blogger, Melanie Gibson, as we discuss:

Melanie’s insights on martial arts as a healing strategy
her philosophies on mental health stigmas
her book Kicking and Screaming: A Memoir of Madness and Martial Arts
her Little Black Belt blog

Bio:

“Melanie Gibson began taekwondo training at age ten. At age twelve she stopped taekwondo to pursue other interests, and resumed training in her early thirties.
Although Melanie had academic and career achievements throughout her life, she struggled with mental illness and low self-esteem. After making some progress through psychiatric treatment and counseling, she knew she needed to do something more substantial to make lasting changes. Returning to taekwondo had always been in the back of her mind, and the timing was right.
Taekwondo proved to be not only an opportunity to re-learn a beloved skill from her childhood, but also a means to build her self-esteem and confidence, and heal from old wounds. It brought a needed excitement and purpose to her life, which she shares in her blog Little Black Belt (http://littleblackbelt.com). While continuing to work at her full-time job, Melanie dedicated herself to taekwondo training and earned her first degree black belt in 2015. In 2017, she earned her second degree black belt. Although a pandemic and knee injury sidelined her training in 2020, Melanie plans to return to taekwondo and test for her third degree black belt.
She has a bachelor’s degree in English from Texas Woman’s University, a Master of Library Science from the University of North Texas, and an MBA from the University of Texas at Arlington. Melanie has worked in the healthcare industry since 2004, with roles as a hospital librarian, corporate trainer, and learning designer.”

The Healing Place Podcast: Krista Nerestant – The Hidden Gifts of Trauma; Self-ish Lifestyle; & Hypnosis

Krista Nerestant is a practicing life coach, educated and certified in Neuro Linguistic Programming and The Satir Method of Transformational Systemic Therapy to heal family dynamics and trauma, and an advocate for women and children.

I enjoyed this beautiful conversation as I learned much from Krista Nerestant, founder of Self-ish Lifestyle, wellness expert, author, medium, life coach, and hypnotist. Please join us as we discuss:

Krista’s insights on the hidden gifts of trauma
her philosophies on healing modalities
what she means by “self-ish lifestyle”
her role as a hypnotist
and so much more!

Bio:

“Krista Nerestant is a practicing life coach, educated and certified in Neuro Linguistic Programming and The Satir Method of Transformational Systemic Therapy to heal family dynamics and trauma, and an advocate for women and children. She hosts a podcast, Self-Care Tuesdays, that is dedicated to encouraging, empowering and elevating the journey of self-care. She’s teaching women it’s OK to be “Self-ish”!
Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) is a psychological approach that involves analyzing strategies used by successful individuals and applying them to reach a personal goal. It relates thoughts, language, and patterns of behavior learned through experience to specific outcomes.
Proponents of NLP assume all human action is positive. Therefore, if a plan fails or the unexpected happens, the experience is neither good nor bad—it simply presents more useful information.
Satir’s Transformational Systemic Therapy Model (STST) is unique in encompassing both the intrapsychic and interactive components of therapy. Much therapy of the past has been focused only on clients’ behaviour, cognition or affect. The Satir Model is focused on the whole human being, tapping into their internal resources and universal yearnings to facilitate transformational change within their personal, family, and social systems. The Satir Model process facilitates development of increased levels of competence and congruence in the therapist.
STST processes are supported by therapeutic and neurobiological research. Evidence-based research supports experiential, systemic, positively directional and change focused therapeutic processes to bring about neurological changes in clients. STST emphasizes that therapists create and provide the conditions for attachment, hope, positive possibilities and safety in order to facilitate change.”

The Healing Place Podcast: Brett Weiss – Creating a World in Which Every Child Has Access to a Better Education

Such a beautiful and inspiration conversation with Brett Weiss, founder and director of the Weiss Scholarship Foundation – providing education to children in Kenya. Please join us as we discuss:

Brett’s insights on creating access to better education
his philosophies on poverty and its impact on children’s education globally
what he means by “Just give them a hug . . . and the rest will be easy”
the mission of the Weiss Scholarship Foundation
and so much more!

Bio:

“Brett Weiss spent twenty-three years in the software business, four years running a social services organization and eighteen years as a high school social studies teacher. In 2009 he made a volunteer trip to Kenya and spent most of three weeks in the tiny village of Dago. Little did he know then that these kind and hard- working people would become a major part of his life. In 2012 he created the Weiss Scholarship Foundation. In 2017 Brett “retired” so he could devote full time to this work.
Brett created the Weiss Scholarship Foundation to give HOPE in a village where there was little hope. Six trips later 79 children from this village have been awarded scholarships. Our program sends children to high school and then to either university or vocational school. So far, we have 13 students at vocational schools and 9 attending university. This is a village where few have ever gone to high school. A key rule of our foundation is all money is divided equally between boys and girls. We do much more than just pay school fees. We have staff on the ground that make sure our students are fully supported so they can be successful.
Brett wrote a book about this work called, “Just Give Them A Hug…And The Rest Is Easy”. He looks forward to sharing this great story with you. We believe that we can create a world where every child gets a great education.
This foundation has grown a lot since Brett last spoke to the club and looks forward to sharing the story with you. We have built a great business model and are now looking to scale the model so we can help many more children.
Brett and his wife Christine are the parents of two and grandparents of two.“
