Cheryl Esposito welcomes Lisa Kalmin, transformational leader and trainer, and author of The Problem with the Problem is the Way You See The Problem. Lisa Kalmin is focused…on a world transformed, on a humanity that can make that happen. As a transformational trainer, she has helped thousands of people to redefine what is possible for them. She didn’t always do this work. Lisa was an Investment Manager for a financial firm when she decided there was more for her to do in the world. She was drawn to transformational work. She chose to be a “Yes” to that path before she knew how it would materialize. Fast-forward twenty years, Lisa is transforming the lives of individuals, working with people all over the world; Lisa and her business partner created the BadAss Women’s Leadership Summit to give women the opportunity to explore “their possible” - and she fits all of that into her life as the mother of two teenagers. Life is full. What are you intuiting about yourself that you could be a “yes” to? Join Cheryl Esposito & Lisa Kalmin to explore!

Speaking: If You Want to Change the World, Tell A Better Story.

Our friend Neal Rogin passed away last year. Neal's mastery at combining wordplay with insight made him a bit of a “coyote shaman”. Neal’s brilliant wit, compassionate heart, and gift for bringing wisdom in the form of humor, made him a one-of-a-kind human…and one of the kindest humans to walk the earth.

Cheryl Esposito welcomes Neal Rogin, a multi-award winning writer & filmmaker. Neal's compassion for life & human connection led him to bold projects, such as LIVE AID Concert for African Famine Relief; The Pachamama Alliance; Spaceship Earth; and his film, The Awakening Universe.

Neal says we are experiencing an extraordinary shift in consciousness of what it means to be a person. We are on the edge of a breakthrough as a species, from arrogance to humility, understanding that we are all one. He sees compassion as the great connector that will move us from competition to cooperation.

Neal's film, The Awakening Universe, is based upon the book The Universe Story by Brian Swimme & Thomas Berry, & The Cosmic Narrative by Drew Dellinger. It explores how the New Cosmology is changing the very definition of what it means to be a human being.

Join Cheryl Esposito and Neal Rogin to explore life...it's awe. Inspired.

Cheryl Esposito welcomes Dr. Lyly Rojas, a university professor, international humanitarian, and co-founder of the European Institute of Collaborative Law. She specializes in the teaching the culture of Peace (inner and outer) and Corporate Social Responsibility, and Multicultural Intelligence. Lyly was born in Nicaragua, a country of conflict with a long history of turmoil, and ultimately her family had to flee because of their political beliefs. She has worked with and consulted to the United Nations; as an advisor to the Vatican in the trafficking of human beings; in war zones training diplomats, human rights workers, the military, and tortured women & children. The unifying theme for her work: compassion and dignity for self and others. Lyly says that we cannot begin to help others heal if we cannot heal ourselves. “How can you teach peace if you are not peaceful within yourself?”

Cheryl Esposito welcomes Sonia Choquette, spiritual teacher, six-sensory consultant, transformational guide, & author of 19 best sellers on intuitive awakening & transformational capabilities.

Our sixth sense, intuition, is our “first sense.” It is the conscious intelligence of our heart…many of us ignore its wisdom. We disregard our knowing in favor of the facts. Urgency addicted, we miss opportunities to create connections. In our busy-ness, is loneliness; a longing to live a meaningful purpose.

We learn by doing, then by our un-doing. Sonia reached her un-doing: her brother died; 6 weeks later her father died; her marriage ended, her business unraveled.

To regain spiritual footing she chose a pilgrimage, walking Camino de Santiago, 800km/500 miles over Pyrenees & across northern Spain. Walking Home: A Pilgrimage from Humbled to Healed is Sonia’s 35-day transformational journey into her heart’s knowing.

Join Cheryl Esposito&Sonia Choquette to learn the way…into your own heart.

Cheryl Esposito welcomes GP Walsh, author of The Tao of Allowing:

Surfing on the Law of Attraction. A master meditation teacher and often called the Irreverent Sage, he asks: “Have you ever wondered: Why does self-help promise so much and deliver so little? Why is spiritual practice so damn hard? Why is the world messed up? Why do I keep working on myself and never get fixed?” Uh-huh. We thought so. GP

Walsh wants to be sure we understand the sacred...the sacred is our true nature. He says we are born into “original innocence” –where all is possible, and we haven’t yet forgotten who we are. In that state, there’s no need for self-help. When people are looking outside of themselves for deep answers, he says “look closer” because the answers reside within. He recommends that we “begin the practice of allowing; surrender to the wisdom of what is.” So, how do you actually “do” that? Join Cheryl Esposito & GP Walsh to master the Tao of Allowing!

Cheryl Esposito welcomes Shelly Lefkoe, co-founder of The Lefkoe Institute, and co-author of Hitting the Wall, Eliminate the Beliefs That Sabotage Your Business and Your Life.

Behavior changes don’t always stick. Ever wonder why? Our lives are driven by beliefs – many that go unexamined, and shape behaviors. Beliefs can manifest as phobias, relationships that never worked, violence, procrastination, unwilling to confront people, and more.

Shelly has helped thousands of people, using The Lefkoe Method, to eliminate beliefs that were keeping them from happiness, achieving their dreams, experiencing the life they were meant to live.

Want to change a behavior? Change your belief that underlies that behavior. Sound too easy? Join Cheryl Esposito with Shelly Lefkoe to learn the secret to keep you from Hitting the Wall … again and again!

Cheryl Esposito welcomes Deirdre Hade, a spiritual teacher and visionary leader in the ancient arts of the wisdom traditions. She is founder of the Foundation for Radiance, a non-profit center dedicated to healing those who have suffered from trauma, pain, and loss.

It is time to bring to life the wisdom traditions and ancient truths of sages and prophets, and make them new again. We have much to learn, and Deirdre wants us to begin with our self.

A teacher of peace, Deirdre believes that to end all war, we have to end the war within; make peace with our self; understand that we are connected to all beings, to the earth, to the stars; to shift our view of blame, to one of compassion. It is from here that leaders can truly see possibility, shape the future, make a true difference in the world.

Is it time for you to step into your own leadership of possibility? Join Cheryl Esposito and Deirdre Hade to begin the journey!

Cheryl Esposito welcomes Jerilyn Brusseau, a cook, baker, restaurateur, businesswoman, humanitarian and cultural diplomat. She is founder of PeaceTable and co-founder of PeaceTrees Vietnam.

Jerilyn passionately advocates warm-hearted, soul-connected food as the most common language spoken around the world. She founded PeaceTable to create shared culinary experiences between people of the United States and the former Soviet Republics as a tool for building cultural understanding.
