May 09, 2022 Dr. Felicia Speed
May is Mental Health Awareness Month in the United States and I am joined by Dr. Felicia Speed who has a lot of experience in this topic of mental health as the Vice President of Social Work Services at Fresenius Medical Care North America.
“I decided that this was where I needed to be because after I lost three family members, within a matter of six months to suicide, I knew that this was something that I want to be able to touch other people. So if I can help save three lives, with the three lives that were lost, then I know that my work is not in vain,” says Dr. Speed.

“We were not created to be self focused,” says Molly Stillman, but instead to help and to serve others and to bring peace to the world. After a challenging childhood impacted by bullying, emotional struggle and family loss, Molly navigated a series of “next chapters,” from professional golfer to stand up comedian, before finding true joy when she left it all behind. Now a successful blogger and podcaster, Molly seeks to help others live with confidence and happiness.

April 04, 2022 Jenna Banks
From self loathing to self loving – meet my guest today, Jenna Banks. An abusive childhood led Jenna to self harm before the birth of her own child changed her perspective. Now a successful entrepreneur, author, and podcast host, Jenna teaches us the value of self love in leading a successful life. “...how we stand up for ourselves and how we honor ourselves and protect our boundaries,” Jenna says, “sets the tone for how others treat us.” Jenna helps break the myth that self-love is not selfish.

Born in Pakistan before immigrating to the United States, and later to Canada, Fauzia’s upbringing held her back from social circles, all culminating with her parent’s attempts at an arranged marriage. She didn’t go through with it. But a later break from a toxic relationship empowered Fauzia to stand up for herself, to find joy, and to help others do the same. Tune in to learn more about Fauzia and her venture to help empower women.
