She brings a unique introspective look at how understanding Neuroscience and Positive Psychology can break through those self-sabotaging behaviors that hold us back.

As we move into the 4th quarter of 2022 we can look back and take stock of the many changes that have taken place with the slowdown of the COVID Pandemic and our re-entry into business as usual…Or Is It! A lot has changed in how we carry on our day-to-day activities whether we are business owners, solopreneurs, or employees.

Today’s guest on Charged Up Studio is Zackary Williamson, CEO of Business Legal Management, a company dedicated to changing the way small and medium-sized businesses partner with and use legal. Zackary did not come from the legal field yet brings a unique perspective that legal professionals need to take note of.

Attorneys have often been labeled as money-grubbing, ambulance-chasing fools. However, the legal business is still a relationship business and requires concerted effort to get out from behind the traditional hourly billing structure and pay attention to the client and their expectations. Zackary joins Charged Up Studio host Danna Olivo to provide a lighter side of the legal industry, putting a simplified approach to protecting your small business in the early stages of growth.

Advocacy…public support for or recommendation of a particular cause or policy. The term advocacy carries a broad scope of applicability. Today’s episode brings the advocacy process front and center as our guest shines the spotlight on one of the oldest professions, sex working, and consensual prostitution. Although controversial in nature, the focus is centered around the disparaging double standard we face because of preconceived social beliefs.

The job of advocates is to bring awareness to these double standards whether centered around the oil and gas industry, politics, marijuana, or the sex trade.

Kaytlin Bailey is the communications specialist for Old Pro Productions Inc. a non-profit media organization focused on creating conditions to change the status of sex workers in society. A podcaster, sex worker, and stand-up comedienne, Kaytlin joins Danna Olivo on Charged Up Studio to discuss the advocacy process and the importance of standing up for social acceptance and stifling predetermined bias.

Success isn’t always easy. Oftentimes one major or minor misstep can pull the rug right out from under you, leaving you wondering what the hell happened. Strength is measured in how you pick yourself up and move forward. Our guest today was blindsided by divorce that stripped her of all her confidence, robbing her of everything she had worked for. LisaBeth (LB) Thomas was regarded as one of the most respected women in her advertising and marketing field. Until she wasn’t.

LB lost her home, and her business in one fell swoop. If that wasn’t enough, she lost her mom and biggest supporter as she prepared to close on the home she lost. Through this all, she struggled with her confidence and belief in herself and her abilities. In retrospect, she uncovered deep seeded fears that were sabotaging her life.

Tune in to this week’s episode of Charged Up Studio with host Danna Olivo to find out how LB could overcome her limiting beliefs and bounce back with the help of her friends and the clients she had lost in the business. It’s amazing what can transpire among human beings with honesty and determination.
