"Your health is your greatest investment!" This statement changed the way I looked at my health and wellness. I became more focused and more strategic about life choices.
Today begins my conversations with Dr. Sharon McDowell Larsen and Dr. Mary Barry. Sharon and Mary share their life's journeys to help others be their best. Being your best doesn't mean being a triathlete or a marathoner...it means finding the right mix of physical and mental balance with nutrition that allows you to be at your best!

Join us July 14th for Part 2 of My conversation with Dr. Sharon McDowell Larsen & Dr. Mary Barry
Recently, I read an article that cited loneliness as a major factor in physical and mental health problems in our society. Research indicates that we are the most technologically advanced generation, ever...and yet we are the loneliest generation. It seems that the more connected and responsive we are - on multiple levels...we still feel disconnected and alone. Now, THAT is something to think about! I'm concerned about the impact loneliness has on our long term health and wellbeing.
Join us for Part 2 of my enlightening conversation with Dr. Pete Ronayne, as he discusses factors that can thrust us into loneliness, disconnectedness and that can lead to stress...and burnout. Dr. Pete discusses ways our resilience is tested - what to look out for and how to "Burn Bright" - regardless of your circumstances.
Dr. Pete's humor, intellectual delivery and practical approach makes the complex topics of neuroscience and neuroleadership understandable and applicable, regardless of your position or industry. Everyone will benefit from this conversation.
Listen for Dr. Pete's Call to Action for individuals and he also shares a Call to Action for organizations - ways to support the resilience of their staff and teams.
Join us June 30th & July 14th - Health & Wellness that Works with Drs. Sharon McDowell Larsen & Mary Barry
So much is said and discussed about mental health, stress, and resilience - especially now. The impact of the "pandemic," geopolitical discord, and so much uncertainty - has challenged how we feel, how we show up, and even who we are. Many people question, "What's next?" or ponder "their next chapter." I thought to bring back conversations I've had with three key thought-leaders in "Resilience" and "Health and Wellness" to guide us in deeper conversations.
Our theme for the next month and a half is "Invest Now for Greatness Tomorrow." Today, Dr. Pete Ronayne - Portfolio Manager - Center for Creative Leadership, begins his conversation about "Resilience" and the neuroscience around burnout, stress, and how to bounce-back and burn bright. Listen as he shares profound and practical content that will help us all be more resilient and what signs to be aware of when we're stressed.
Dr. Pete's humor, intellectual delivery and practical approach makes the complex topics of neuroscience and neuroleadership understandable and applicable, regardless of your position or industry. Everyone will benefit from this conversation.
