A Fine Time for Healing

There is a wealth of potential trapped within our hidden and unresolved places of pain. Yet, without conscious participation, we can become stuck in a cycle of repetitive patterns that leave us feeling like an imposter in our own lives.

In her book Expired Mindsets, today's special guest Charryse Johnson gives people both the courage and the keys to understanding the root of their patterns. She provides an introspective mind-body approach that demonstrates how to shift into a higher place of peace and potential. This book has a gentle yet poignant way of compelling you to own your story and to stop blaming yourself for the choices you made as you sought to survive.

Johnson is boldly creating a new lane between the intersection of mental health, inclusivity, and a growth mindset. In this body of work, she is unapologetically challenging the rigidity and stigma that reduces human struggle to a sequence of self-help steps. As you read this book, you’ll create a framework that allows you to investigate the diversity of your experiences through a lens of curiosity and understanding.  

Dr.Charryse Johnson, LCMHC, NCC is a veteran psychotherapist and mindfulness practitioner whose work focuses on the intersection of trauma, somatic integration, spirituality, and social justice. She is the founder of Jade Integrative Counseling and Wellness, an integrative therapy practice where personal values, the search for meaning, and the power of choice are the central focus. Charryse holds a B.A. in human development and family studies; an M.A. in professional counseling and a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology with a concentration in crisis and trauma.

Abuse is no longer just happening to the neighbor down the street or the girl on television. It’s not just a random father creeping into their child’s room at night, the unaccountable pedophile priest or a case of domestic violence. It’s even beyond predator capitalism and abusive authority figures.

“We’re horrified and appalled by the opioid epidemic, but should there be any surprise? People are medicating themselves to blunt the trauma. We are an abused, exploited and traumatized society; we must recognize our abusers and begin to heal ourselves,” says Tate.

Karen's book Normalizing Abuse takes the reader on a serious yet heartfelt journey of discovery, not just of oneself, but also looking into many aspects of our everyday lives, such as academia, government, corporations, the workplace and media, family and friends, society and culture, religion, military, and more, to peel back the veneer hiding rampant insidious abuse and exploitation.

In Normalizing Abuse, abuse survivor, Karen Tate, takes off her rose colored glasses and confronts theacculturated abuse in society. She brings this pervasive and insidious poison to the fore so others can see, understand, and take steps to obliterate toxic elements from their lives and begin down the road to recovery.

Thought leader, speaker, seven-times published author, and activist, Karen Tate's work is at the crossroads of spirituality, personal transformation and social justice. She is hostess of the long-running Voices of the Sacred Feminine podcast, considered a treasure trove of wisdom for more than a dozen years. A Caring Economy Conversation leader and Power of Partnership presenter with the Center for Partnership Studies,  Karen also earned certification from Smith College in the Psychology of Political Activism: Women Changing the World.

What if the key to having the life you want was as easy as understanding how perception works and there was a simple way to recognize their natural strengths? What if there was an easy hack to create the relationships you want with the people who matter most to you? Would you be interested? 

There are many facets to personal development, yet most of what’s talked about is a broad brush and generalized to the point of being tired. In their book Unlock the Power of Your Perception, Clinical Psychologist Gary Jordan and today's special guest, Coach Lynda-Ross Vega, hone in on a key ingredient that a lot of people gloss over in this fast-paced and get-it-done-yesterday world. Unlock the Power of Perception will help you tap into the power of your natural strengths so you can create the life you want.

With over 35 years of experience in senior management and as a business owner/entrepreneur, Lynda-Ross is an expert at harnessing the power of perception to help individuals and organizations implement change, empower collaboration, and develop talent.  Lynda-Ross began researching and applying styles theory tools early in her career.

A very profound Spiritual Awakening Experience occurred in 2019 after today's special guest, Stephen Paul Chong, fell five metres off a ladder and fractured his neck. To quote Stephen, "This life experience is what I know and understand to be a ‘Pivot or Turning Point’ … where I had to choose what happens after." It was about three months into the rehabilitation when things became a little clearer for him.

Stephen is the author of The Afterlife - A Journey to: Now You Know What Will Happen). This book helps you experience heaven's many levels BEFORE you get there.

"Upon death, we passage through a tunnel of light and the silver cord (which connects the eternal soul to the physical body) is severed, and unlike an NDE, we are unable to return.

Entry into these ‘Mists’ or ‘Purgatory’ confirms our life’s journey through the law of ‘What you sow, so shall you reap’. It is a confrontation with the self. What you have done (or not

done) and what you have ‘caused to effect’ in your fellow man. It is a ‘Life Review’ where every moment of life is flashed before you and you see what you have done to and for

people. In this place, ‘The emperor wears no clothes’. Your status, position, title, etc. are null and void. It is what you have done to others that holds the key … we are all one in spirit … ‘Whatyou have done to another, you do to yourself’."

Stephen Paul Chong, M.Ed. a highly sought-after professional development coach, keynote speaker and author, and he shares his passion for life with everyone that he meets. Over the past 25 years, he has provided guidance and motivation to countless people through his inspirational messages and ability to ‘bring the best out in people’.

Millennials are opting for prenups in record numbers compared to previous generations. They are also more likely to simultaneously plan for divorce while preparing for their wedding, essentially assuming that it won’t last. This isn’t surprising when almost half of all marriages in America end in divorce. But what if you could take preemptive action to have one of the marriages that last?

Most people are aware of the financial investment involved in marriage, which is why many people try to protect themselves with a prenuptial agreement. However, the often-unnoticed emotional investment is the key to a successful marriage! An emotional prenup can help engaged couples navigate difficult topics before marriage and offer a blueprint to avoid conflict and divorce.

Have you ever noticed how often, performing the smallest, routine tasks—rituals, if you will—can have a ripple effect that results in a big transformation? Keeping a journal, drinking tea, lighting a candle, taking daily walks, and taking the stairs instead of the elevator are just a few examples of simple, routine steps that might deliver a major impact physically or mentally over time.

In today's special guest Tâmara Castelo's new book The Power of Rituals, she walks readers through how to determine their biotype and, based on that, create a personal plan with easy, repetitive tasks designed to rebalance sleep, manage stress, reduce anxiety, and end toxic thoughts. 

Tâmara believes that there is a solution to every problem, but that a lack of direction paired with over-stimulus often makes it difficult to access those solutions. In treating her patients, she uses ritual as a modality to help clarify the path of least resistance. Between her two clinics in Lisbon and Porto, she specializes in women’s health disorders, mental health, sleep disorders, thyroid health, IBS, and more. She was recently a guest on Law of Attraction Tribe, and was featured in Men’s Health.

TÂMARA CASTELO is a specialist in Chinese Traditional Medicine and the CEO of Tâmara Castelo Clinic (Lisbon and Porto), TMC Health, TMC Holistic and TMC Jewellery.

Sometimes there are forces greater than ourselves, and sometimes those forces can make a mess of a family. Often when a trauma has occurred upstream in the family and has not resolved, the younger generations can come in and grab onto that stuck energy to heal it, in effort to say "I love you." That could be a wonderful gesture if it wasn't wreaking havoc on themselves and their families. Unfortunately it doesn't actually heal the original problem.

Constellations are a great basis to assist in clearing out other parts of our lives, not only stuck family energy, but entities, soul fragments, vows, curses and more. Like ripples in a pond, the resolution allows greater healing to take place.

Today's special guest, Meredith Herrenbruck has a certification in Family Soul Constellations facilitation, a master practitioner certification in Neuro Linguistic Programming, and is a Huna Healing practitioner. Meredith is the author of the book that transforms lives, Becoming Ridiculously Awesome.family

Shot in the throat! Ghostly Faces! Meet the resident Bird Cage Theatre ghosts as some shared pain of the violent deaths. Others revealed their lives as actors, drinkers, gamblers, prostitutes or gunfighters to today's special guest, medium and paranormal investigator Rob Gutro, on the museum's ghost tour.

Rob and his friend photographed faces of 2 ghosts in a painting and a mirror. Rob also sketched some ghosts he encountered. The Bird Cage Theatre is a very haunted and historic landmark in Tombstone, Arizona. It was a big part of the wild days of the old west in the United States. Because of the raw emotional events that occurred there, a number of people have chosen to stay behind as earth-bound ghosts. Rob encounters ghosts who want to share their stories whenever he travels. He calls himself a "medium rare" because he's still learning about spirit communications.

Rob is a meteorologist and provides scientific and logical explanation about spirit communications. He also volunteers for Dachshund and Weimaraner rescues and has several dogs. His books include Lessons Learned from Talking to the Dead and Ghosts, and Insights from a Medium.
