  • Long Term Care With Tom Basey

     Tom Basey from Basey Insurance discussed
    the importance of a long-term care policy to protect one's assets and legacy.
    He explained that two out of three people over 65 are expected to need some
    form of long-term care, typically lasting for three years. He suggested that
    people consider getting a policy in their 40s or 50s, as it gets more expensive
    the longer you wait. He also discussed the different types of policies, the
    limitations of Medicare and Medicaid, and the potential of using a reverse
    mortgage to cover long-term care costs. He encouraged people to contact him or
    visit his website to learn more about their options. 

      

    Action Items 

    1. Consider getting a long-term care policy in your 40s or
    50s. 

    2. Research different types of policies, such as term,
    hybrid, and life insurance policies, with a long-term care rider. 

    3. Contact Tom Basey or visit his website to learn more
    about your options.

  • James Heppner

     James Heppner is a self-help
    hacker and strategist who helps people live fully alive, passionate, and
    fulfilled. He has gone through a dark night of the soul and has come out the
    other side with an unshakable love of life. He encourages people to accept life's
    challenges and to look upriver to discover the source of the problems rather
    than just putting a Band-Aid on them. He offers one-on-one coaching services
    and a free community call every Friday to discuss wins and losses. He also
    shares a story about his son, Harrison, who realized that all he had to do was
    participate in what was directly in front of him to be just fine. Apologize to
    children to strengthen relationships and learn from them. Embrace life's wins
    and losses and utilize them to maximize life. Adopt the belief that life owes
    them nothing, that nothing has to be perfect, that everything is a co-creation,
    and that nothing traps them. Participate with what is directly in front of them
    to be just fine. Join James Heppner’s weekly wins and losses call. Check out
    James Rollins' website for speaking engagements and a media kit. ABOUT JAMES My
    life worked until it didn’t. The business was strong, the capital was
    plentiful, and life seemed all I had ever dared wish it to be. Performing life
    vs. Living life nearly cost me my business, my investments, my children, and my
    marriage. The never-ending hyper-vigilant striving to achieve the next level of
    success suddenly awakened me to the deep emptiness of my current lived
    experience. Unable to truly celebrate and instead deeply anxious about the
    rawness of who I really was on the inside, I flip-flopped between being
    restless & bored and anxious & depressed. Thankfully peace didn’t come,
    but instead, I fell into a million tiny pieces. It forced me to build a new
    infrastructure grounded upon authenticity and gratitude. I made critical
    decisions like “my joy is not for sale” and “losses are simply disguised gifts
    hidden in plain sight.” I’ve spent the last decade designing my life of
    gratitude and can honestly say I have an unshakeable love for my life. Not in
    spite of the losses that I’ve had to endure however rather BECAUSE of the
    losses that I’ve utilized well. Fearing Fear itself has now left me. Today I
    help people ignite their vibrant energy toward life by turning toward what they
    really want - to courageously step towards their comforts and discomforts with
    curiosity and an open embrace of the goodness that lies at the core of both the
    win and the loss. The truth is - Real life is made up of both wins and losses.
    Both were designed for your good - that's the basic reality. Without facing and
    learning how to embrace your losses for greater gain, you miss out. Why choose
    to leave 50% of your life experience on the table when you can choose to do the
    work so that you can have it all? Life can be good news - if we let it. Life
    can shine In through the cracks - if we let it in. I INVITE YOU TO TAKE THE
    RIDE OF YOUR LIFE BY ENGAGING WITH ME AS YOUR GUEST ON YOUR SHOW. Together we
    can deliver a transformative and deeply invigorating message that meets people
    exactly where they are at today.

    10. Tracey Whittet

      Tracey Whittet
      Tracey Whittet is a gifted energy facilitator, author, and intuitive guide based in Santa Fe, NM. She’s trained in many energy healing modalities, including Reiki, Divine Healing Hands, Theta Healing, Access Consciousness, Yuen Method, and Healing Touch. Over the years, these and other pieces of training have evolved, leading her to implement an integrated method called Transmosis Healing.

      Transmosis Healing clears energies that make us sick or hold us back. It is a multidimensional body balancing session that clears non-beneficial energies on all levels, layers, timelines, and dimensions. Clients feel better, are happier, lighter, and uplifted by the 100% pure divine light clearing. This unique energy clearing connects us to the healing power of our true divine nature.

      To learn more about Transmosis Healing, please visit her website TraceyWhittet.com. Tracey offers her free eBook called The Magi Within Unlocking the Gifts of the Inner Self as a gift for those listeners who wish to dive deeper into their own empowering intuitive gifts.

      The conversation I had with Tracey was very interesting. I learned more about how she came up with her Transmosis Energy Healing and the power we find in our world. The power that each of us holds can be very confusing; Tracey wants to share what she understands about our world. What we can overcome when we find the way is breathtaking.

      Open your mind to understanding what is around you and evaluate what you have learned. You are in control of what you believe; the only way to validate your belief is to challenge what you already know.

      I hope you find value in this great conversation.

      Michael Clogs

      Michael Clogs started his podcast company out of frustration with a conflict between what he knew to be the truth and what the mass media was telling the public. After losing a job as an analytical chemist in a high-tech industry, he was told he was untrainable and too expensive to be hired by any other industry. Forced to find a way to survive, Michael managed to find a way to pay the rent in the mobile app world and daycare. That was not enough, and he began broadcasting on a local radio station advocating for equality and rights for people with disabilities, and Depictions Media was born from there. Please go to Depictions.media

      After getting to know Michael, I was impressed by his will to drive change in our world. He is very active in presenting us with well-informed media. You can understand our world and how it works when you follow Michael on his unique podcasts. It would be best if you were the driver when you discover how to change the world.

      Michael is always looking for the stories that matter and delivers on what he see's as needed information for all of us. Together we can have the change that we all seek.
