We live in a time of uncertainty and anxiety for many. More than ever, people struggle to stay in a positive frame of mind, a good mental space, if you will. Many turn to social media every single day as an escape from their anxieties, or as a form of distraction from the stuff in life they’d prefer to not look at. In many cases this has a powerful negative effect on their lives…but that path can be changed so that your time on social media can feel good, positive, and affirming for you, and everyone you interact with. The question is How can we use social media for good and to help others in today’s challenging world? That’s the topic for today’s show. My guest, Dave Katz and I will share tips, tricks and secrets for making social media a safe, enjoyable place to visit and spend some useful time.

In this week's show, we’re going to tackle real estate from a completely different point of view. We’re going to rise above the fray to see the fear that's moving through many agents, buyers and sellers, and give ourselves the opportunity to move through it, beyond it, to get a clearer understanding of where the industry is headed. The real estate industry is changing rapidly, both from a technology and with a pivot in style, type, size and lifestyle of the next wave of buyers. Agents fear changes that could make them irrelevant, buyers fear finding the right neighborhood, affordability, job security, Sellers fear knowing will they find the next great place to live, will they leave money on the table, will their family adjust to a move. So we’re going to ask the tough questions, and let my guest, Jay Jasper answer them! This is an hour you can’t afford to miss, because even if you’re not in the market, you can’t help but be affected by the market. Plan your day around this hour!

It’s a pretty tall order to talk about using a different set of rules to win at life. Little do most of us realize that we’re spirits having a human experience, but did you know that the world you see outside of yourself is entirely of your own making? It’s true! If that’s true, then if you decide you want to make it different, all you have to do is change your thinking. Right? Exactly! And that’s exactly what we’re going to talk about today… my guest, Deana DeHaven, and I are going to spend an hour discussing how A Course In Miracles helps shine the light of God on the darkest spots of our minds… and how using this Light can be transformative in every relationship, every day. Deana and I will reveal which passages mean the most to us, sharing with you how even a few short sentences have changed our lives, helping us to be more peaceful... and how you can have this peace too! The two things we’ll definitely do in our hour are have fun, and share our experience with you!

I’ll bet you’ve never heard of the N.A.L.C.P., but the work this non-profit association does touches hundreds of millions of men, women, and even children. NALCP stands for the National Association of Licensing and Compliance Professionals…these are folks in the hospitality industries who handle all the on and off-premises, retail liquor licensing. Maybe you think this has got to be the most boring group in the universe; you’d be wrong; wildly wrong. I’ve know many in this association for years, and I lovingly refer to them as a drinking group with a licensing problem! Today, we’re in for an entertaining treat into a first-hand look at the business, and fun sides of the NALCP, and how what they do affects you everyday… my guest, Jill Valachovic, is one of the association’s past presidents, and is literally chomping at the bit to help us see the fun behind the business of liquor licensing. You’ll come to know why they play by the Rules… in the next episode of Business Rules!

My guest this week has a depth of character that I love connecting with; Kevan Stahl and I have known each other something like 12 years, maybe longer, and every time we reconnect there’s more power to what we do and a more refined purpose in both our work. Presently Kevan is on the front edge of launching a powerful, proprietary, patent-pending online platform that promises to change the face of lending…but what’s so cool about all this is that’s as much a tribute to Kevan’s friend and co-founder, Craig Smith, who passed away suddenly in September of 2016, as it is a means to help him help others in the field of neurological research so they can expand their work in saving the lives of people afflicted with neurological injuries and diseases, such as traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, ALS, Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. While this might sound a bit heavy, I can promise you Kevan’s outlook is rock-solid positive and positively uplifting! You'll be so happy you listened!

You’re going love this week’s show! It’s almost entirely ad-libbed with my guest Dr. Cheryanne DeVita!!! We’d originally planned a man make-up extravaganza, with me as the man being made up – seriously… BUT for reasons beyond our control we decided to punt and do a nearly completely off-the-cuff show talking about skincare, cosmetics and ‘stuff’. Don’t groan! It was a blast! You’re going to have a blast too – why? Because we talk about really cool stuff, including should we believe how important cosmetics companies tell us make-up is(?), women and make-up in the workplace, MEN and make-up in the workplace -YES! Men! Cherylanne, who is literally the Skin Care Maven, covers the do’s and don’ts of make-up, how to use color correctly, and even how you can do just one simple thing to test the quality of any make-up. I promise you that you’re going to laugh out loud and smile throughout the show! Make it a point to be here, you’ll have a better day spending an hour with us!
