Connie’s motivational quote is by, ~ Galileo “I have loved the stars too fondly to be afraid of the night.” Have you or someone you know been effected by cancer? Sadly, the answer is probably yes. In a report from 2012, the World Health Organization revealed that over 14 million people are diagnosed with cancer every year. That is a staggering number that increases each year. When we hear that dreaded word “cancer,” one can only feel fear and overwhelm. The pathway to curing this disease has many variations and can be overwhelming to navigate.  Which solution or protocol will work best for your unique situation? Today your host, Connie Whitman, speaks with Barry Eaton who shares his story about beating cancer and the road he traveled to survive and thrive. Barry is a well-known radio and TV presenter, author and journalist, spending most of his career at the ABC and various commercial stations in Sydney, Australia. He is also an Astrologer, medium and psychic intuitive whose guests share their metaphysical kn

Connie’s motivational quote for today is by ~ Lao Tzu “Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.” What an interesting quote. Love is so powerful that it gives us the strength to live an empowered life and helps us find the courage to be true to ourselves. But what happens when love causes pain? Haven’t we all had our hearts broken? Maybe even more than a few times…ugh. It doesn’t make us feel empowered or courageous. It makes us feel lost, sad and apprehensive to love and trust again. We all desire to love and be loved by someone, yet may be afraid to put ourselves out there. Vulnerability is scary and opening up our hearts can be terrifying. If you have been looking for love in all the wrong places, you are in store for a treat. Today your host, Connie Whitman, speaks with Karen Otis. Karen was on the show a couple of months ago and shared her new book, “Be the Architect of Your Life: Design, Build, and Start Living a Life Inspired.”  She has taken her a

Teddy Roosevelt has been quoted saying: “The only one who never makes mistakes is the one who never does anything.” Have you heard this quote before? Think about it, how many times have you made a mistake or taken a wrong turn only to end up in the right place? Mistakes are a necessary part of living, growing, experiencing and creating. Yet, most of us freak out when given an opportunity to change something in our life. It takes thought, effort and work to develop something new or to improve ourselves in some way. Startling statistics show that over 70% of Americans are unhappy with their current employment. Why is that and why doesn’t that 70% do something to change their job. Most are afraid or just aren’t sure what to do. The unknown is scary! Today your host, Connie Whitman, speaks with Tom Mulliez and Tom is going to share his story about leaving a corporate job to start his own adventure. Tom is a father, husband, entrepreneur, and the visionary behind iTREKKERS. Tom founded the company in 2014 after re

Connie’s motivational quote for today is by ~ Robert Ballard “Following your own passion – Not your parents’, not your teachers’ – YOURS.” Does this quote reflect how you have lived your life until now? Or throughout your life have you heard things like, “Do well in school. Get good grades, so you can get into a good college. Then you have a good chance of getting a goodjob.” Does this sound more familiar to you then the quote above, about living your passion? The thing is, what we have heard throughout our life of doing “good,” is just that “good.” It’s not great or awesome or mind blowing, it’s just good. Good truly is the enemy of great, isn’t it? Today your host, Connie Whitman, speaks with J.J. Brito.   J.J. is going to help us shake things up by telling his interesting story about traveling the seven seas and journeying to the four corners of the earth. He has lived an inspired life, that most of us can only dream of. J.J. was born and raised in Southern California, a stones throw from Disneyland. J.J.

Connie’s motivational quote for today is by ~ Jeanne McElvaney “You can recognize survivors of abuse by their courage. When silence is so very inviting, they step forward and share their truth so others know they aren’t alone.” This powerful quote has a key word that we are going to focus on today and that is courage. There are many forms of abuse. Verbal abuse, physical abuse, psychological abuse and the list goes on. Most of can only shudder as we watch the 6’oclock news and hear about a child that was abused in some remote part of the country. Not thinking that this abuse can happen in our own back yard. The reality is, there are many who have lived through abuse, survived it and have found the courage to speak up about it with the hope of being able to help one other abused soul. Today your host, Connie Whitman, is honored to speak with Barbara Jean Wilson. Barbara is one of the courageous woman who has chosen to stand up and speak out by telling her story of how she survived and has chosen to thrive in h

Some Pearls of wisdom from everyone’s favorite and most successful investors in the world, Warren Buffett. “Someone’s sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.” Sounds familiar, doesn’t it? How many times have you heard your mom or dad say, “save for a rainy day?” The good old days are gone forever. Remember years ago there was a retirement savings plan called a pension. Most of us today do not have such a substantial form of savings, put away for us, by our employer. So what do we do? The reality is our Golden Years is the picture we paint; it’s our vision. That means we all have to make sure we have the resources (money) we need to do what we want to do once we retire. Maybe things like keeping your house, or buying a brand new house, or having new cards in the driveway, etc. Today your host, Connie Whitman, speaks with Kate Stalter. Kate is a licensed investment advisor representative, and the founder of Better Money Decisions. Kate has a myriad of publishing credentials a

Connie’s motivational quote is by – Meryl Streep: Put blinders on to those things that conspire to hold you back, especially the ones in your own head.” Change is such a huge topic and sometimes feels hard to accomplish. We can all agree that change in life is inevitable! How we approach and handle change impacts the end result, right? There are many ways to mange our changing paths and none of them should be criticized by anyone, including ourselves. Sometimes we can be our biggest and worst critics … through self-judgment or by allowing the thoughts and comments of others to enter our head.  This happens all the time. The other component, of change, that we need to explore is the concept of living in the past versus living in the present. We have to remember that the past is the past and today is the PRESENT and is the most important part of the process.   So how do we take this power of living in the present to help us create the positive life we want to live today? Help is here! You host, Connie Whitman,

Connie’s motivational quotes for today is by – Steve Maraboli: “Live your truth. Express your love. Share your enthusiasm. Take action towards your dreams. Walk your talk. Dance and sing to your music. Embrace your blessings. Make today worth remembering.” Did you know that dancing is directly linked to kindness?
