Belinda Farrell has overcome major life challenges—the suicide of her son, complete financial loss, and healing a degenerated spine without surgery.  By using ancient Hawaiian techniques and accepting responsibility for every aspect of her life, she was able to rise from the ashes and now she’s sharing this invaluable information with others in her new book, "Find Your Friggin’ Joy". “This is a no nonsense book for those who are willing to take an active part in their healing,” explains Farrell.  In Find Your Friggin’ Joy, Farrell takes readers on a journey using ancient Hawaiian teachings that invite the reader to forgive themselves and others, unplug from their old non-productive stories, and step into the frequencies of their Higher Self.

     Belinda Farrell, author of the book Find Your Friggin’ Joy, graduated with a BA in Spanish and English from the University of California at Berkeley and is trained in hypnotherapy, past life regression, NLP, Hawaiian chanting, and ancient Hawaiian healing (Huna). Belinda trained with Anthony Robbins (author of Unlimited Power) and has effectively used these skills in her own life. She has completed 18 firewalks. When Belinda was forty-eight, she collapsed with herniated discs and spinal nerve damage. Threatened with paralysis by her medical doctors if she didn’t have surgery, Belinda instead chose to apply the ancient Hawaiian healing practices she had been learning the previous three years, which are covered in this book. Her back completely healed, including childhood scoliosis. For fifteen years she has been sharing these healing practices with others, offering Reconnective Healing and Huna classes and taking clients to Hawaii to teach Huna and swim with wild spinner dolphins.

Candidly Candace returns to the air and is even better than before. Welcome in the New Year with the Candidly Candace Radio Show!

Join Candidly Candace as she talks with singer/songwriter Anne Harris.With the release of Gravity and Faith, Harris delivered her strongest, most compelling work to date, her voice exuding a revealing honesty, clarity and deep-rooted strength and her fiddle playing at its most emotionally engaging. ConcertLiveWire.com said the record "boasts a carefully crafted blend of violin-infused pop/rock arrangements, the occasional folk flavoring and introspective lyricism" while the Illinois Entertainer said her work is "brimming with socially conscious, and at times, intensely personal lyrics as memorable as thought-provoking."

Fresh on the heels of Gravity and Faith, Harris released another record in 2008, Live at the Acorn Theater, a project which was born of converging desires to create a live record and revisit some of her earlier songs.

Such a period of intense focus on her own music made it all the more refreshing when her creativity as an instrumentalist became increasingly in demand. Before the year was out Harris would find herself as a guest violinist with psychedelic 70’s legend Jefferson Starship and touring regularly with world renown trance-blues innovator, Otis Taylor, having appeared with the latter at the 2009 Blues Music Awards in Memphis (where Taylor won “Instrumentalist of the Year, Banjo"), Chicago Blues Festival, Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion, Jazz Aspen Snowmass and the Telluride Blues Festival. Anne finds performing other people’s music to be an exciting opportunity for in-the-moment creativity and discovery and the experience ultimately influences her own writing, leading her into new territory. Listeners are welcome to call in during the live broadcast by dialing 347-996-3381 and join in the discussion via the Candidly Candace Facebook Fan page.

Join Candidly Candace as she talks with singer/songwriter Stefanie Jane. She brings listeners on a journey of healing though her troubled life beginning with child sexual assault and abuse to the powerful gift of love. She wanted to create an album that encompassed the many feeling that overcame her along the way. She wanted to break the mold and add different dimensions to typical rock music. Producer Paul Osborn, Leona Rupert and the musicians at Audio Dallas helped create an album with diversity in rock-n-roll forms. Two songs feature a guest appearance by Local blues guitarist Chris Ruest!

Stefanie Jane moved to the Dallas area with her family last year to pursue her career in music. She started working with producer Paul Osborn and vocal coach Leona Rupert immediately upon arrival. She has been approached by record companies but chooses to stay an independent artist so that a larger portion of proceeds reach R.A.I.N.N. © and Stop It Now! ©. Stefanie Jane’s late father, Nathan Moore, instilled her with a passion for classic rock music.

Stefanie Jane is releasing this album because she was taught, “We are what we listen to.” Feelings are portrayed in songs, but few are willing to look at both sides of pain. Each song is a story on its own, with a different form of rock music to convey a grander scope of feelings. Her songs are her own personal pep talks and she’d like to share them with other.

Callers are welcome to call 347-996-3381 during the show. There will be a live chat before and after the show!
