Please join us Wednesday, April 8, 2020 at 4:00 p.m. PST and 7:00 p.m. EST for a live show with host Denise Messenger.  Our guest is Dr. Missy Hood. We will discuss her book, "Memoirs of an ADHD Mind." After losing 40 jobs in 15 years, she knew she was dealing with something a little bit bigger than herself becauseshe had suffered to overcome ADHD for so long.  It was now affecting every area of her life and there just had to be answers. She would drive down by the University of Texas daily during lunch hours dreaming of what college life might be like. She was diagnosed with severe ADHD and Dyslexia in 1993 with the learning average of around 1.7 GPA (very very low according to college standards) because of her brain’s inability to advance cognitively.  She since has achieved many great things from working in Film/TV/Live production to now being a doctor of Education.

Please join us Wednesday, April 1, 2020 at 4:00 p.m. PST and 7:00 p.m. EST for a live show with host Denise Messenger.  Our two special guests are Catherine A. Weissenberg and Jocelyn Montanaro.  They will be discussing their book, "Beyond Ever After: A Heart-to-Heart Journey Through Death and the Afterlife." Through this powerful story about love, spiritual beliefs, and human attachments, Beyond Ever After shines a light on unseen realms of mystery, spirit, and our connection to an infinite Source. The book takes us on a journey that transforms how we perceive life and death, and we discover that even our wildest imaginations barely begin to penetrate the infinite possibilities of consciousness and the afterlife. Readers are encouraged to trust in their intuitions, spiritual connections, and supernatural experiences. Catherine A. Weissenberg and Jocelyn Montanaro offer an all-encompassing message of hope, connection and love. Catherine shares her psychic gift, allowing Jocelyn to communicate with her husband Kevin, who is dying of brain cancer, both while he is in a coma and after his death. Jocelyn, previously a skeptic, chronicles the struggle of losing Kevin, while Catherine provides her spiritual perspective and insight from 30 years of facilitating conversations with comatose patients, the deceased and God. Not a channel or medium, Catherine describes her work as "dipping into an always-available stream of consciousness" and writing down what she finds there. Through several sessions between Catherine, Jocelyn and Kevin, Catherine's "God Writings" are testimony to the authentic, divine connection that can expand our view of the soul and spirit, as well as reality. You asked for it and we deliver.

Each year her visits became longer, with the first visit often taking over an hour as she educated her clients in not just physical therapy, but how to manage all the different demands of their healthcare needs. It was during these visits that Ebie became painfully aware of the lack of education available to the general public on how to manage their healthcare.  As the speed with which the industry continues to change increased, she came to realize how crucial this information was to each person she interacted with. And so the birth of her book, If You Have Gray Hair, Beware, Tips Tools and Tricks to Get Your Needs Met in Healthcare, and the personal healthcare management system she calls My Healthcare Notebook.  Ebie is now teaching groups self-advocacy, how to advocate for loved ones during times of medical crisis, care for health, as well as how to manage participation in the healthcare system.  You asked for it and we deliver.
