With a previous long-term career in theater, Andrew has developed programs to bring into schools teaching mindfulness through various aspects of the creative arts. He explains ways that parents can incorporate some of these practices with their kids at home, and the benefits received through the creative process for tapping into their emotions, their breath and their body.

What's Holding You Back? Mar 02, 2020

Show notes

Yeah!! This episode marks my 1st full year complete of having my podcast and I wanted to do not only an episode of reflection, but of some of the roadblocks that I've overcome to reach and accomplish my goals over the past year. I could have had so many things stopping me: not being ready, not knowing how, feeling self-doubt, or believing old stories of "I can't do that." And I chose to look past all of those and instead focus on my vision, my passion and my impact I could make on others by providing an outlet for my voice. So as you listen, I ask you to reflect on your past year, make note of your accomplishments and what you are grateful for. And then, coming from that positive mindset, ask yourself what your roadblocks are moving forward, and let those simply be moments to pause and gain clarity, rather than stop and lose momentum. I believe in you! You got this!! (Whatever this may be…) :)

And for being a loyal listener, I'm offering a free gift of my online course titled Redefine Yourself – it is a short, 7 session course, each only about 5 minutes long, that guides you through uncovering where you are stuck in your life (whether it be outdated habits, unskillful patterns or old limiting belief systems) and walks you through a framework of cultivating deeper awareness and compassion in shifting your relationship to what's holding you back. Then, you will connect with your values as the basis for intention setting in creating a lasting path towards change.

Are you MAD? (Making A Difference) with John Shearer Feb 10, 2020

Show notes

This interview with John Shearer comes all the way from Australia, where he shares his inspirational story of his journey towards lasting wellness, and now how he is MAD (making a difference!). Many years ago, he got into an accident that left him with many physical injuries, deep mental suffering, and even shock treatments to help with his suicidality. A chance visit by an old friend changed his life forever on Mental Health Day in 1997. This led John to a "spiritual awakening" where he realized that he didn't have to believe the prognosis that all the doctors had given him that he'd never be able to work again or go off meds. Mindfulness provided him what he never thought he could have - his life back. And he has now dedicated his life to providing others the tools to live their best, healthiest life.

John's Bio: John Shearer is an Australian Mindfulness Master, Intuitive Life Coach, Peer Support Specialist, Hypnotherapist and ACT Therapist. (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) He has vast experience coaching, teaching and mentoring people (including youth), especially those who have been diagnosed with more serious mental 'illness'. Over 1 million people 'like' his facebook pages, Mindfulness Mentor and Spiritual Mentor. He is the founder of mindfullyMAD.org (mindfully Making A Difference) and the Mindfulness Mentoring Institute.

What You Gain When You Lose with Brianna Bernard Jan 27, 2020

Show notes

You guys - this is seriously an inspirational conversation I had with Brianna Bernard. She was a week postpartum with her son, having gained over 75 pounds in her pregnancy, when she realized she needed to make a massive change in her life. Through inspiration and then taking action, over the next few years, she lost over a 100 pounds, got divorced, became a personal trainer, is a happy single mom, and even made it into People's magazine yearly issue on people who've lost over 100lbs. What she gained, is so much more than what she lost, and it is such an inspiration to hear her journey forward of perseverance and finding herself - her power, her joy, her sense of self, her career and her strength.

Brianna's bio: After gaining 70 pounds during her pregnancy, Brianna Bernard's weight escalated to 245 pounds. With a newborn baby and a failing marriage at home, find out how Brianna took control of her life, changed her habits and mindset and lost 100 pounds in one year, launched a successful fitness business and created the life of her dreams!

Reparenting the Child Within Us with Ashley Avinashi Jan 20, 2020

Show notes

How is the emotional conditioning that came about in our first 6 years of our lives determining the lens through which we see the world through today? When we can unwind that conditioning from our early childhood that did not serve us, we can create transformation today and allow ourselves to deeply connect to our true essence. In this interview with Ashley Avinashi, who created Raising Humanity, which is an international organization created transformative healing for parents to return to their best selves, we talk about how we can heal our inner child so we can show up fully and whole. She has created this community and transformations, even for adults who are not parents themselves, but are in need of healing. In our state of challenged humanity right now, this is both powerful and necessary for our collective healing.

Ashley is a certified as coach practitioner and in conscious parenting, as well as transpersonal therapy, along with a best-selling author of the book, Ignite Your Parenting.

What Masks Are You Wearing with Ashanti Branch Jan 13, 2020

Show notes

We all wear masks. And for different reasons. But at what point are our masks no longer able to hide what we are really feeling? Who is it that we are really hiding from? Ourselves, or the rest of the world? In this emotional, powerful and compelling interview with Ashanti Branch, founder of the Ever Forward Club, he talks about his journey from a middle school teacher to finding his purpose connecting with inner city youth to help them not only feel heard and seen but to give them the courage to look beneath their masks and even the courage to remove it. He's committed to the #100kmasks challenge to help people over 100,000 people all over the world remove their masks. Are you ready to look beneath yours?

Ashanti's bio: Mr. Branch, born and raised by a single mother on welfare in Oakland, California, took the road less traveled to get out of the ghetto and attended one of California's premier engineering colleges, California Polytechnic - San Luis Obispo. Ashanti studied Civil Engineering and worked as a construction project manager in his first career. After tutoring struggling students and realizing his true passion was teaching, Mr. Branch changed careers. He had suddenly found the "fire" that was missing in his life and he hoped to ignite a similar enthusiasm in his young students.

In 2004 as a first year teacher, Ashanti started The Ever Forward Club to provide a support group for African American and Latino males, who were not achieving to the level of their potential. Since then, The Ever Forward Club has grown to serve both young men and women and become a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. The Ever Forward Club has helped 100% of its members to graduate high school and 93% of them have gone on to attend college.

With over 19 years mentoring youth and 10 of those years as a math teacher educating inner city youth, Ashanti was awarded with a Fulbright Exchange Fellowship to India, a Rotary Club Cultural Ambassadorial Fellowship to Mexico and a 2010 Teacher of the Year Award from the Alameda-Contra Costa County Math Educators.

Mr. Branch is on a mission to change the way that students interact with their education and the way schools interact with students.

Stop Missing Your Life with Cory Muscara Jan 06, 2020

Show notes

We all move too fast. We all are on autopilot. We often don't know how to slow down. And the impact of these habits or patterns is that we miss out on our own lives. We miss out on what's going on around us and what's happening inside of us. How we relate to what we are experiencing, impacts the experience itself. In this interview, with an old friend of mine, Cory Muscara, talks about the implication on our health, happiness and ability to be present when we practice the tools of mindfulness and meditation.

Cory's bio: Cory Muscara is an international speaker and teacher on the topics of presence and well-being. He believes that when people are deeply fulfilled, they are a better force in the world for other beings, the environment, and their communities. For several years he taught mindfulness-based leadership at Columbia University and currently serves as an assistant instructor of positive psychology at the University of Pennsylvania. In 2012, Cory spent 6 months in silence living as a monk in Burma, meditating 14+ hours per day, and now aims to bring these teachings to people in a practical and usable way, presenting to schools, organizations and healthcare systems, as well as through workshops and retreats for the general public. Named by Dr. Oz as one of the nation's leading experts on mindfulness, his meditations have now been heard more than 10 million times in over 100 countries. Cory is host of the popular daily podcast, Practicing Human, and the author of Stop Missing Your Life: How to Be Deeply Present in an Un-Present World.
