Divas That Care Network

Come and listen to our Host, Joyce Benning, as she chats with today's guest, Regina Curtis, for our "Boss Babe Summer: Leveling Up in Life & Career" Podcast Series.
 Mix motivation, business tips, and interviews with female entrepreneurs on how to use summer energy to plan ahead, reflect, or pivot.  

Have you ever wondered why certain physical sensations arise when you're making decisions? That tingling in your gut, the heaviness in your chest, or maybe—like our guest Regina Curtis—the peculiar experience of sweaty shins when something isn't right? These aren't random quirks but sophisticated personal guidance systems waiting to be decoded.

Regina Curtis, founder of Edmatry and co-founder of the Mingle Learning Collaborative, joins Joyce Benning to explore the art of "following your flow" in both life and career. Curtis reveals her framework of holistic entrepreneurship, which seamlessly integrates personal life, professional skills, and infrastructure into a cohesive approach that feels authentic rather than fragmented.

The conversation takes a fascinating turn as they explore the six channels through which our intuition communicates: thoughts, images, emotions, movement, sensory experiences, and spatial awareness. Curtis explains how recognizing your unique "yes" and "no" indicators can transform decision-making from anxiety-inducing guesswork to confident clarity.

Perhaps most powerful is Curtis's vision of transparent stepping stones appearing beneath her feet with each forward step. When she wondered about a safety net, wisdom arrived: "The net only appears when you need it. Stop looking for it. The steps appear when you need them. Look for those instead." This metaphor perfectly captures the essence of trust—not as blind faith but as active engagement with life's unfolding path.

For those feeling stuck between masculine drive and feminine receptivity, Curtis offers a refreshing perspective on balancing these energies. She introduces the concept of "touchstones"—time, teachers, tools, techniques, talents, and technology—that support us through challenges and help us maintain alignment even during difficult transitions.

Ready to transform your relationship with intuition? This episode offers practical strategies for turning faith into a playful game, using gratitude as a perspective shifter, and recognizing the signs and synchronicities confirming you're on the right path. Discover how following your flow isn't about passive drifting but active co-creation with life's magic.

Mix motivation, business tips, and interviews with female entrepreneurs on how to use summer energy to plan ahead, reflect, or pivot.  

Kat Mitchell is a Master Life Coach, certified NLP Practitioner, and certified Hypnotherapist who guides women leaders through powerful mindset shifts and emotional breakthroughs. With a deeply intuitive yet practical approach, Kat helps high-achieving women release self-doubt, imposter patterns, and the hidden stories that keep them playing small. Her signature style blends neuroscience, NLP, hypnotherapy, and heart-centered coaching to create deep inner alignment and authentic outer confidence

What happens when a Master Life Coach decides to shed her corporate identity and step boldly into entrepreneurship? In this captivating conversation with Kat Mitchell, we explore the exhilarating (and sometimes messy) journey of building an authentic coaching business while staying true to your highest values.

Kat doesn't sugarcoat the challenges. From workshop communication mishaps to the vulnerability of recording videos in public spaces, she shares her real-world experiments with refreshing honesty. Her summer mantra—"bold action and visibility"—isn't just a cute phrase but a daily commitment to growth even when it feels uncomfortable.

What truly sets this episode apart is Kat's brilliant insights on energy management. She reveals her strategy for tracking which activities energize versus deplete her, allowing her to make strategic decisions about delegation. Social media management? That's now handled by trusted assistants because scrolling became a productivity black hole. This intentional approach to business building creates space for what truly matters: deep client connection and presence.

The conversation takes a fascinating turn when we explore the difference between collecting surface-level connections and building meaningful relationships online. Kat challenges the "500+ friends" mentality and shares her summer commitment to authentic relationship building in the digital space—a struggle many entrepreneurs will recognize.

Whether you're just starting your entrepreneurial journey or looking to uplevel an established business, Kat's parting wisdom will resonate: "Keep taking action, keep moving forward, keep learning and continue to shine your light and be bold and brilliant." This isn't just inspiration—it's your blueprint for sustainable success.

Come and listen to our Host, Gia-Raquel Rose, as she shares with you on our "Boss Babe Summer: Leveling Up in Life & Career" Podcast Series.
 Mix motivation, business tips, and interviews with female entrepreneurs on how to use summer energy to plan ahead, reflect, or pivot.  

Gia-Raquel Rose, owner of Airs Above Yoga, LLC and a real estate sales associate in Tewksbury, New Jersey has had a love for horses stemming from early childhood. Growing up in “horse country” afforded her the privilege of beginning to ride from the tender age of four. It was a childhood illness, which brought her riding aspirations to an abrupt halt. It took twenty years before she was able to reunite with her long lost passion for horses and their ability to heal. In that time, she received a Bachelor of Arts in Corporate Communication from Arcadia University and became a twice two hundred hour certified yoga instructor in both Hatha and Vinyasa. It was the loss of her mother, Rose, to breast cancer, which ultimately shifted her trajectory from the corporate world to the internal work for which yoga, as a practice, is renowned.

The golden flame of your solar plexus holds the key to transformative action. When we tap into this power center—the seat of our passion, drive, and ambition—we unlock the ability to move beyond ideas and into purposeful creation.

Many of us experience brilliant flashes of inspiration that quickly fade as we return to addressing the urgent matters demanding our attention. This reactive pattern keeps us perpetually responding to "the fire in front of our face" rather than proactively building the life and impact we desire. How might we shift this dynamic?

Through this guided meditation episode, we explore the delicate balance between divine feminine receptivity and ambitious action. True leadership doesn't require aggression—it flourishes when we align our actions with our authentic selves and core values. Success expands beyond traditional metrics of wealth to encompass holistic balance across health, relationships, service, and personal fulfillment.

The meditation practice invites you into a restorative bridge posture (with modifications available) to gently invert energy flow toward your solar plexus. As you visualize a golden flame emanating from this center, you'll encounter the silhouette of your truest self emerging from within. This sacred connection provides guidance on your aligned next steps and reminds you that you're supported by ancestors, guides, and universal energy in fulfilling your unique purpose.

Remember that your path isn't in competition with anyone else's—there is abundance enough for all. The power to create meaningful change resides within you, waiting to be acknowledged and channeled with both strength and love. Join us in this transformative practice to illuminate your purpose and ignite your inner fire.

Your power center deserves attention. The solar plexus chakra—that fiery, yellow energy center just above your navel—holds the key to your personal strength, confidence, and ability to pursue your passions without apology. When balanced, it allows you to take up space in the world unapologetically; when depleted, you might find yourself constantly saying "sorry" for simply existing.

In this deep exploration of Manipura (solar plexus chakra), we uncover the fascinating connection between your power center and other energy systems in your body. Did you know you have a primary chakra that influences your personality? For those with a dominant solar plexus, you might recognize yourself as goal-oriented, achievement-driven, and occasionally prone to overcommitment. Understanding this energetic blueprint offers profound insights into your natural tendencies and potential growth areas.

We journey through powerful yoga postures specifically designed to balance this crucial energy center. From the challenging Navasana (Boat Pose) that directly targets your core to the expansive Ustrasana (Camel Pose) that creates length and openness, each asana serves a purpose in your energetic maintenance. The Warrior series takes center stage as we explore how these poses embody the essence of the solar plexus—radiating strength from your center outward into all aspects of your life. For women especially, maintaining core strength isn't just about aesthetics; it's fundamentally important for structural support and long-term wellbeing.

Ready to claim your power and speak your truth? Join me in this empowering practice that honors both the fiery and receptive aspects of your third chakra. Remember: true strength begins at your center and emanates outward into everything you do.

Come and check out today's podcast with Host Candace Gish as she chats with the amazing Eyal Levit about his new Book, The King's Race on the Divas That Care.

Eyal Levit, MD, is a board-certified dermatologist at Levit Dermatology in the Manhattan Beach area of Brooklyn, New York. 

Dr. Levit completed his residency at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital, now New York Presbyterian Hospital, in 1999. In recognition of his exceptional skill, he received additional fellowship training at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. Here, he studied rigorously in Mohs, laser, and dermatologic surgery. 

Following his surgical fellowship, Dr. Levit completed a two-year fellowship in cosmetic dermatology. He presented nationally and internationally through his studies on laser resurfacing, liposuction, fat injections, facelifts, blepharoplasty, acne therapy, and scar revisions. 

His last international presentation was in Spain in June of 2016, where he was a keynote speaker during the World Congress of Cosmetic Dermatology. He presented his inventions in cutting-edge acne therapy and blepharoplasty and described his nonsurgical nose and facial rejuvenation techniques.

Dr. Levit is excited to welcome new and returning patients to his practice.

Dr. Eyal Levit has served for 15 years as the director of Cosmetic and dermatologic surgery at St. Luke’s Hospital, Mount Sinai medical center, and received the distinguished award for best teacher of the year award for his contribution in that field.

Dr. Levit is highly recognized as an expert in the cosmetic surgery field and was selected by the ASDS (American Society of Dermatologic Surgery) as a fellowship training center for other board-certified dermatologists who want to take an additional year to improve and learn cutting-edge techniques for cosmetic procedures.

Dr. Levit performs hundreds of skin cancer surgeries a year and brings his vast dermatologic knowledge and experience of cosmetic surgery into his patient medical and cosmetic reconstruction and vis versa, his vast suturing experience techniques to his cosmetic surgeries, helping his patients feel and look better. 

Dr. Levit is the primary author and creator of the ABC rules to diagnose nail melanoma published by the JAAD in 2000.

Outside of his professional career he has also authored books for both adults and children: “A Lost Art” where he describes his experience in dermatology in an educational amusing and inspiring way to the lay public. In his most recent book “The King’s Race” his vivid imagination and life experience uses animals to help heal, inspire, and improve hope and acceptance in our stereotype-riddled society. Among his hobbies, he has written songs (both lyrics & music) performing some of them in children's charity and other regional settings.

Dr. Levit believes that medicine & surgery are like all other fields (teaching, car repair, shoe sales) they begin and end with the person providing them. Once they are qualified it is not how smart they are but how much they want to make a difference and help those seeking their assistance, this is truly what makes the difference.

Dr. Ayel Levit, dermatologist and author, shares his journey from being raised across multiple countries to writing "The King's Race," a children's book about overcoming prejudice and believing in oneself even when others don't.

• Born in Ukraine and raised in Israel, Nigeria, and the US, experiencing life as a minority in different contexts
• Found sports as a universal language that helped him connect across cultural barriers
• Nearly pursued an Olympic career before following his parents' advice to study medicine
• Wrote "The King's Race" initially as a bedtime story for his son's kindergarten class
• Book uses animal characters to explore themes of self-belief, overcoming prejudice, and pursuing dreams
• Emphasizes the im

We explore Ayurvedic nutrition for the upper chakras, specifically the third eye and crown chakra, as part of our ongoing discussion about creating balance in physical, mental, emotional, etheric, and spiritual health.

• Upper chakras connect to colors - indigo blue for third eye and violet/white for crown chakra
• Foods that support these chakras often match their colors - blueberries, blackberries, purple carrots, eggplant
• Third eye chakra benefits from lighter foods with high nutritional content but lower sugar and fat
• Crown chakra responds well to detoxification practices rather than specific foods
• Leafy greens, garlic, and clear beverages (without caffeine or alcohol) support cleansing
• Heavier foods, dense carbohydrates, and saturated fats can hinder upper chakra function
• Healthy fats that support brain function (nuts, seeds) can benefit the third eye chakra
• Consciousness is key - bringing awareness to what you eat creates connection with higher self
• Balancing all chakras requires different nutritional approaches for different energy centers
• Living lightly and making conscious food choices supports intuition and spiritual connection
