Today on Feminine Roadmap Susan Lazar Hart talks about creating the life you choose. We often live in the world feeling that we have no choice, Susan would say that even thinking we have no choice is a choice. She encourages listeners to sit with the question: who do I want to be and where do I want to go next? Fundamentally, you do have a choice. It’s important that our choices be in alignment with what we want to create in the world. When we stop, get quiet and allow things to come to the front of our minds instead of being in a state of resistance, then our better choices can rise. Susan reminds listeners to tap into what your choices could create. Remembering to ask if each choice is congruent. Life is full of choices, both of doing and not doing. What if you indulged in a completely different choice by allowing yourself to do things differently or show up differently. IF you want to break free from the patterns in your life, change is created by the choices you make.

Today on Feminine Roadmap we’re talking about building courage in midlife with Sheree Clark. Sheree is a Midlife Courage Coach who helps women build the courage to become their best selves. Midlife is often a time of reinvention, figuring out what’s next and along with that can be timidity, apprehension or even fear. The beauty of courage is that it doesn’t have to be a broad sweeping step, it can be done in small, purposeful shifts. Often a shift in our paradigm is the catalyst that empowers us to take the next best step. We are women who have lived a lot of life, learned many things and experienced so much – with that comes value. Our value in midlife is immense, understanding that is the first step in summoning courage. As we learn to honor the women that we are, what we know, who we are and what we offer, we can courageously move toward the next iteration of ourselves.

Today Dr. Bill Rawls shares how his own health decline led to his passion for cellular wellness and aging. Dr. Rawls explains how the concept of cellular wellness applies to every area of health. Through his journey he recognized an uptick in illness and wanted to offer solutions to that.

Our bodies are made up of cells and symptoms are an indication of cellular stress. Dr. Rawls explains that when our cells are stressed , they require more nutrients than normal.
