Raised in a small town, in a faith-filled home, she was often singled-out and bullied because of her core beliefs. She didn't care though. As she explains on the show, she had seen miracles happen within her own family (her brother was born dead) and was convicted in what she knew to be true.

"Deathly" afraid of the stage, she felt God's strong tug, pulling her to California and into the world of acting. Knowing what was real for her, she and her husband packed up their few belongings and moved from the heartland of Virginia into a roach-infested apartment. As she explains on the show, she would rather move to CA and be wrong, than to be disobedient to God.

On the show, actress Jen Lilley (also known as Theresa Donovan to her Days of our Lives fans), shares hopeful stories of faith and possibility - Don’t put God in a box. His plans are bigger than yours.

To say that today’s guest has a diversity of experience and experiences, is an understatement. She’s worked as a computer programmer, classroom teacher, drug abuse prevention counselor, social worker and union advocate. And, while some may view her career’s journey as an unfocused study in experimentation and course corrections, it gave her a PhD in L.I.F.E., and prepared her perfectly for a rally – a second half rally of coaching, writing, and speaking.

One of the spiciest and sassiest boomer women I know, Inez Bracy joins us on the show to share how she reached a point where she could no longer get out of bed to go to a job she could no longer stand. As she left the unhealthy stability of a place and a paycheck, she didn’t know what she was going to do, but she was absolutely certain about what she was NOT going to to.

Driving the military-issue Humvee on late-night patrol, the night-vision goggles he was wearing didn't detect the thin, almost invisible trip wire, stretched across the road. The explosive power of the bomb blast sent the 10,000 pound armored vehicle, along with him and two crew members, through the air and into a ditch. He woke up on Christmas Day in Walter Reed Army Medical Center - His left arm and leg had been amputated from the injuries.

On the show, American hero Noah Galloway, shares how he sank into unhealthy habits, isolation, and depression, until the fateful moment of his decision and Relaunch! As you'll hear him tell it, a hard look in the mirror at the man, husband, and father (three kids) he had become, jolted him into fierce action.

Now, several years later, he is the 2014 Ultimate Men's Health Guy. If you've been to the store lately, you'll see him on the cover of the November issue of Mens Health.

With more than twenty-five years experience as a nurse, she knew how to handle patients, doctors, treatment plans, and ER situations. It wasn't until an emergency showed up in her own life (ulcers in her throat) that she was moved to find alternatives and remedies that modern science and medicine couldn't offer.

A captain in her own healing journey, she came to understand that the root cause of her condition had not been treated. While the drugs and surgery calmed and quieted the symptoms, they did not bring true healing. On the show, holistic coach Rochelle Forrest, talks about how she found her healing, power, and purpose - Life is playful again!

Two Fun Facts - Rochelle unwittingly started coaching people about their health and lives at her clinic, until the doctor told her that she needed to start a coaching practice, because that was what she was doing. He also said that patients were disappointed if they didn’t get to see her.

As she shares on the show, she came across a painting she did when she was just five years old. As it turned out, it was her first vision board.

David Ralph is our guest - he talks about the signs, signals, and symptoms of a stalled career and the need for ReLaunch!

We also have a fun conversation around the future of broadcasting, podcasting, and radio.

Like many ambitious women, Mraci Shimoff set big professional and personal goals for herself - striving for accomplishment, with the common misunderstanding that: I'll be happy when ...

In the midst of a thriving entrepreneurial career (speaking, marketing, consulting), just about any serious health scare (let alone cancer) can cause us to slam on the brakes. When the news came, it forced him to think about things (his family's well-being and legacy) from a different perspective and with a different understanding.  While he now had a built-in excuse for self-pity, slowing down, or giving up, as he enthusiastically explains on the show, to him, cancer was a gift. It caused him to be laser-focused on the work he was here to do and the difference he was here to make. One the show, 7-time bestselling author, Mike Koenigs, talks about how to write a bestseller in record time.

While writing changed his possibilities, life and lifestyle, the how-to steps he mastered, gave him the tools that would empower writers, speakers, coaches, and equip the next wave of bestselling, difference-makers.

We all have at least one book in us. Read Publish and Profit. In it, Mike lays out a 5-step system for how to attract: paying coaching and consulting clients, traffic and leads, product sales, and speaking engagements.

His dad gave him two unorthodox pieces of parental advice – “Never get a job with benefits”, and “Go to where the action is”. He didn’t want his son to end up trapped in a dead-end job; hanging in there for the promise of lower health insurance premiums, a mild annual cost-of-living raise, and a once-a-year paid vacation. He also knew that, for his son to realize the dream of being a country music performer, being in the right place, would put him with the right people. On the show, Chad Jeffers, is the man on dobro and guitar for Carrie Underwood’s band.

Mistakes for entrepreneurial rookies to avoid: Viewing people in the same field (in his case, musicians, authors, and speakers), as competitors.

Business advice: 1) Have an abundance mentality – realize that there is more than enough to go around; 2) Create alliances with people in the same industry and business; 3) Play with as many people as you can; 4) Push yourself to be better than you were yesterday; 5) Be willing to become part of the fabric of your community.

Immediate action steps (If he were starting over from square one tomorrow) – 1) Keep creating; 2) Find ways to help others and be of service; 3) Make new friends; 4) Create new opportunities.

A broken marriage left her to raise five kids on her own; the loss of her job compounding the already tough situation she was in. Her instincts took over quickly and her focus shifted immediately to survival. With no time self-care and healing, she scrambled and did what any parent would do - whatever she had to. Within a few days after her termination, her phone began to ring. As it turned out, the relationships she had built and developed through the years, (former coworkers, friends, and clients), were throwing her the lifeline she needed for a single mom ReLaunch! 

While the back-on-her-feet opportunity was available, her commonsense voice cried out "no". After all, she knew very little about running a business, doubted her "capability" and had extremely limited funds ($500).

However, as our guest Shanna Gray explains, God said "yes". And, when she received His answer as confirmation, she felt a warm and secure "bear hug of peace and love".

Trusting God, she found favor with vendors and decision makers and began to build her security business from ground zero.

It's been said that the best way to learn about yourself is to start a business.

As painful and as heart-wrenching as this experience must have been (I would never pretend to be able to fully understand the range of emotions she went through), the courage, conviction, and resourcefulness she tapped into reflects, who she was all along.

While she learned to tolerate life in front of the camera, her unsatisfying career as a newswoman and an anchor, led her to a dangerous addiction, poor relationships, and low levels of self esteem. She would sometimes sneak away from the TV station early, running away from the job she grew to hate. Her moment of truth (the clarity to leave) came as a literal punch in the face. BAM! And then BOOM to the floor. She was sucker-punched by a victim's family member, whose murder trial she was covering.

Away from an environment that had become toxic, she was able to get clean, healthy, and happy. On the show, Joleene Moody talks about leaving the past behind, stepping into the unknown, and how to start a career shift.

Understanding and embracing her calling, she brings clarity, confidence and direction to individuals, speaks to and motivates crowds, and transforms audiences with her common sense and often comedic approach.

During the Christmas season, 2014, Joleene's first full-length comedy, Visiting Bammy Lewis, will debut at CNY Playhouse in Syracuse, NY.
