Episode 106 – Interview with Immigration Expert – Erez Agam from Berlin, Germany

Erez Agam was born in Israel in the 1980s. From a young age the topic of immigration attracted him. After growing up, Erez began traveling to many countries around the world, until he made the decision to focus on the issue of immigration. After considerable research, he determined that Germany would be the best destination country for him and his desire to help others with immigration. 

Erez Agam arrived in Berlin with no connections, no job, and literally all he had was a suitcase and a few dollars in his pocket. In his book titled, “Berlin’s Immigration Secrets”, he talks about his migration journey to Germany, from the very beginning until the time when he achieved stability. Erez reveals all the secrets of immigration that will help other immigrants.

Erez is a world traveler and an expert in the field of sales, in fact sales is his real passion. The book answers all the challenging questions – like finding a job, even if you do not have a European passport, he offers guidelines on how to obtain a work visa, and finding an apartment once you have employment. 

In the book he also enlightens the reader on the difference between a European passport and a non-European passport, as well as covering the employee’s rights in Berlin, plus the secret to converting a drivers license from another country to a German license and more.

During those years, by his own admission, he was separated from God, his Heavenly Father. In a statement within one of his recaps, he said, “Recently I’ve had time to really - REALLY - do a deep dive into me, my soul - finding who I AM and what causes me to fall short. That discovery brought a lot of painful tears; however, it’s been so relieving. 

I have been told I'm a very different person. I see and hear more than before. Trying my best to be patient and empathetic to others' time, thoughts, and emotions. I can feel again”.

Lance touts that having been blessed to have received this glorious gift from God and a platform to expand on these thoughts; he’s now seeking to have God work through him as a vessel to send messages of strength and inspiration to those who are hurting.

He will often state, “It's never a risk or a loss if you learn and surround yourself with great people”.

Episode #104 Interview with Dana Lee Chapman, the Diet Recovery Coach

Dana Lee often states, “I’m a Jersey girl” Born and raised in New Jersey, she takes great pride in helping women recover mentally, emotionally, and physically after decades of dieting damage from the impacts of the “diet culture”.

She secretly struggled with disordered eating and exercise bulimia for nearly 20-years as a fitness professional, hoping her degree would give her some answers, before she decided on her own - once and for all - to stop trying so hard to lose weight and instead focus on self-acceptance and rebuilding self-esteem, regardless of what the scale said.

Her flagship “MindFit Mentorship” program facilitates the ability for her clients to reclaim their own happiness and freedom, to live life to the fullest on their own terms, and to break free from a culture that has you believing no matter what or who you are, it isn’t good enough. 

Dana Less also dated someone for 6-years who had a successful business AND a serious heroin addiction. She lost him to suicide, but today she has tremendous peace around it and often tells other loved ones of someone with a drug addiction, “I know how you feel”.

It’s 2022 and women are feeling heavier than ever in both body and spirit with every attempt at diet and weight loss. Dana Lee is here to help you ignite hope, happiness, and freedom within yourself, along with providing answers on how to get out from under the damage of diet culture.

Episode 103 – Understanding and Practicing Step Eleven

“We sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.”

In Step 10, the focus is largely on keeping your thoughts and emotions in check, this step guides you to look at the very foundation of your restoration and recovery. As most should know by the time they’ve reached Step 11, the foundation of recovery is centered on your spiritual growth. Many don’t realize in the early stages of recovery that every single step is about spirituality in one form or another.

Those dealing with substance abuse or another form of compulsive and destructive behaviors, while in the midst of their destruction, don’t understand the spiritual lessons to be learned and those that should be put into practice on a daily basis. Spirituality is not the same as religion!

In recovery we find that spirituality really is constantly developing and changing - just like us. You now have new situations and new people in your life who influence and impact your growth in powerful ways. This step lends you a hand-up, encouraging you to find ways to improve your conscious contact with God. By this time you already have awareness of the changes in your life that began as early as Step 2, but as you’ve progressed there’s a new understanding in your life that improving your relationship with God comes from consistent prayer and meditation.

I encourage you to pray this prayer daily: Lord, my prayer is that you would guide me to offer comfort to others rather than seeking it for myself. Help me to love others, like you love me. Show me how to forgive, so I can be forgiven and awaken me as I pursue eternal life. Amen! 

Jermar Jackson has been through a lot of things in his life and if it wasn't for God, he says he would not be here today. 

Jackson gives thanks to God by giving himself to Him as a living sacrifice. 

Jackson says that most of us live a life that we're not because of the people that surround us.  It's time we take charge and start building ourselves.

In the process of building ourselves, we can build the community and everyone around us.
