InJoy Success Podcast

Meet Rachel Druckenmiller:

Rachel is the Founder of UNMUTED… and a highly sought after speaker, facilitator and trainer

Rachel is on a mission to humanize the workplace by igniting resilience, connection, engagement and compassion in organizations, associations and their leaders and teams. Recognized as the #1 Health Promotion Professional in the U.S. in 2015, a 40 Under 40 Game Changer in 2019, and one of The Daily Record’s Leading Women of 2020, Rachel is a national thought leader in the field of wellbeing and employee engagement. 

Known for her refreshing, dynamic and relatable approach, she has reached tens of thousands of people through her in-person and virtual learning experiences as a keynote speaker, workshop facilitator and leadership trainer. Rachel has worked with large and small organizations alike… and her work has been published on Thrive Global and mindbodygreen.

What I love about Rachel is that she is a literal voice for all of us...We all have things to say, things we care deeply about, things we believe in, things that we would like to change. But it is all too easy to silence certain parts of ourselves, certain aspects of our of being. Why do we do this? To fit in, to not ruffle feathers, to avoid confrontation, to not be made fun of… and the list goes on… but the bottom line is that if we are being honest, many of us are living a smaller version of who we really are because we DO mute ourselves in one way or another.

So if you’re an entrepreneur with a vision, an employee or employer who knows you have more to offer, a parent who wants to create the environment for your kids to be fully expressed young people, or simply someone wanting to unlock more of your own potential in all areas of your life… this is the episode for you.

Meet Rita Boccuzzi :

Rita, also known as Mamma Rita Money, is an Entrepreneur, Financial Intelligence Expert, Author, Educator and Motivational Speaker. She is passionately committed to guiding successful entrepreneurs and business owners to achieve financial peace of mind through Money Education and transformative mindset breakthroughs.

She is a leader in the Money Education Movement, known to be a Revolutionary Life Changing Approach for Rapid Transformation to Flourish Financially.

In addition, Mamma Rita also leads Wine, Women & Wealth and "It's No Secret To Be Wealthy" Workshops, as well as her Money Education Movement Bootcamps where Money Over Mindset Mastery meets Money Skills Mastery.

What I love about Rita is that she is democratizing the information and education that has for far too long been reserved for the financial elite. Money is certainly not the only aspect of success but our lack of financial confidence, knowledge and planning IS definitely at the heart of a lot of unnecessary pain and tribulation.

The bottom line is that your mindset around money and your knowledge of how money works will be a major factor in the quality of your overall success and life experience.

Whether you are starting a business, raising a family, saving for retirement, or simply wanting to have a more solid plan for your future…this is the episode for you.

So buckle up… this is going to be a good one.

[5:20] Life of a hybrid professional

[14:34] What is a hybrid professional?

[44:54] Optimal distinctiveness

 

Meet Dr. Sarabeth Berk

Dr. Berk is the leading expert on hybrid professional identity, and a hybrid professional herself. She’s been featured in Forbes, onstage as a TEDx speaker, she’s an author, and recent recipient of a Colorado Inno on Fire award for her innovative work. 

In her book, More Than My Title, she has developed a one-of-a-kind approach that takes personal branding and career development to a whole new level. 

This work, her passion, grew out of her own professional identity crisis.

Feeling stuck and pigeonholed in her career path, Sarabeth started a research study focused on professional identity where she interviewed people from diverse industries. Her “aha” moment was realizing workers can be hybrids, more than the sum of their multiple work identities, instead of only experts, generalists, or jacks-of-all-trades. Her hybrid title is Creative Disruptor because she works at the intersection of being an artist, researcher, educator, and designer.

What I love about Sarabeth is that she has touched on something fundamentally important to not only success in our career but success in life.  Most, if not all of us have struggled with getting clear on who we are. And the challenge is not only discovering our unique talents, skills and passions but often even harder is then communicating those to the world, especially when they don’t easily fit into a pre-existing box.

Today we will hear a little more about Sarabeth’s journey in carving her own path... as well as some of the secrets she’s learned along the way.

So whether you are struggling with your own personal or professional identity crisis, or just want to get to know yourself a little better... this is the episode for you.

Meet Victoria Albina: 

Victoria is a Certified Life Coach, UCSF-trained Family Nurse Practitioner, functional medicine expert, and Breathwork Meditation Guide with a passion for helping women realize that they are their own best healers... so they can break free from codependency, perfectionism and people-pleasing... and ultimately RECLAIM their joy.

She is the host of the Feminist Wellness Podcast, holds a Masters degree in Public Health from Boston University School of Public Health and a BA in Latin American Studies from Oberlin College. Victoria has been working in health & wellness for over 20 years and lives on occupied Lenapee territory in New York’s Hudson Valley.

What I love about Victoria is that she is the epitome of Heart and Mind Coherence, of science and spirituality. She’s solidly grounded in functional medicine practices and the latest in neuroscience as well as the wisdom she’s garnered from her own spiritual journey. But perhaps most impressive is her absolute superpower of being able to create and hold the space for the people she works with to connect with their own innate wisdom.

Victoria is the embodiment of the old saying, “Give someone a fish, you feed them for a day… teach someone to fish, and you will feed them for a lifetime.”

She is on a mission to help as many people as possible unshackle themselves from limiting beliefs, codependency, perfectionism and anything else that stands in the way from them realizing the truth of who they are and powerfully creating the life they’ve always dreamed of.

So, whether you are building a business, wanting to improve your relationships, working to manifest a lifelong dream, or simply committed to experiencing your fullest self… this is the episode for you.

[33:50] Music and mindtravel

 

Meet Murray Hidary:

Murray is a multi-disciplinary, creative visionary and tech pioneer. He took his first company public at the age of 27, he’s an award-winning photographer and he is a world-class composer. 

Murray is the creator of MindTravel, an immersive, meditative experience that has spanned cities across the world in the form of SilentWalks and “silent” piano concerts. In bringing MindTravel to a broad audience through his digital offerings, Murray’s goal is to create the space for people to have a powerful journey, which is at once provocative and reflective, healing and transcendent. Murray’s MindTravel experiences are a fusion of contemporary and classical musical styles, wisdom traditions, theoretical physics, and the power of communal elevation.

Now, there are certain humans that walk among us who seem to be here to remind us of the deeper realms and other dimensions that life has to offer. Murray is one of those people.  

His mission is to permeate the nature of things and to open our eyes, our ears, and our hearts to the hidden reality of the universe.

 

What I love about Murray is his rawness. Through his childhood, early financial success, family tragedy and ultimately creating MindTravel, Murray has always listened to his inner voice and followed it even when the path was not clear at all. 

There is a famous quote that I love that says, “Don’t die with your music still inside you.”

How often do we ignore that small inner voice and instead listen to the voices of society? How many times have we not trusted ourselves and our path while instead doing things we are “supposed” to do. All the while knowing that we are leaving some of our gifts, talents or music unplayed and unshared. Well, Murray is here to make sure this doesn’t happen to you anymore.” But rather that each of us live a life that is a beautiful symphony of our own creation.
