Expectation Therapy? The Art of Expectation? What does that mean? Well, today you’re not only going to hear our guests Remarkable story, but learn what expectation therapy is.

Today’s guest was a young man who lived a great and comfortable life until one day his parents suddenly picked up and moved to Northern New York where he felt isolated and alone.  You’re going to hear all about his transition to upstate NY, how he joined the United States Marine Corps to escape, helped support an orphanage in Vietnam, and how his whole life changed again after he watched his wife struggled and die from cancer.

In this episode we’ll learn how to properly look at, and set our expectations so we don’t struggle with a bunch of depression, anger, and other oppressive emotions. He’s going to take us through the journey of his life, while dropping golden life nuggets all along the way. Remember though, the core of the episode is just like the title says. It’s about expectations, faith, living with purpose, and how all of us can be remarkable. Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the Art Costello story!

"You just need to outlast it. You need to remember you can outlast it." - Art Nagle
 
EPISODE OVERVIEW: 

Did you hear the one about the bratty teenager who had to learn the hard way? You know, the one who moved out of her parents house in high school because of the strained relationship she had with her father. Today’s guest not only talks openly to us about her journey through the early years of life (the highs, the lows, and everything in between), but also about losing her husband to cancer and at early age as an adult. How she got down, depressed, turned to alcoholism and food addiction.

That’s not where her story ends though. Today she’s an HR expert, a consultant, a coach, and an author. And as you’re going to see in this episode, her journey here was not without dark moments. She considered suicide, taking her kids with her, and so much more. This episode is packed! It’s positive, it’s real, it’s raw, it’s upbeat, it’s fun, but it’s also really serious and touching filled with 100 acts of love. Ladies & Gentlemen, welcome to the Kim Hamer story!

GUEST BIO: 

On April 16, 2009, Kim Hamer watched her 44-yr-old husband take his last breath. During his illness and after his death, she was amazed by the helpful ways their coworkers, bosses, friends, and family supported them. Kim started calling their kind actions “acts of love”.

After the death of her husband, Kim, an HR leader, noticed how little guidance leaders received when navigating cancer, health crisis, or death on their team. She knew their lack of knowledge negatively affected morale, employee engagement, and productivity. She set out to change that. Combining her personal experience with her professional knowledge and leadership skills, Kim launched her business to support leaders and coworkers when cancer (or any health crisis) affects a team member.

Kim Hamer is the author of 100 Acts of Love: A Girlfriend’s Guide to Loving Your Friend through Cancer or Loss, an easy-to-read book filled with 100 practical, quick, and effective ways to support a friend or coworker.

“You may not change the world, but you may change the world for one person.” – Bob DePasquale


EPISODE OVERVIEW: 

Did you hear the one about the 18-year old Italian-American guy who thought he was invincible until the day he found out he had cancer (right in the middle of the September 11th terrorist attacks)? You know, the one whose future wife was unknowingly praying for him before they even met, and years later they found out she was praying at exactly the same time he was undergoing cancer treatment.

Todays guest takes us through that story, and brings us up-to-date on his life today. He talks about generosity- radical generosity that is. He also talks about the journey of recovering from cancer, beating cancer, and the whole process before, during, and after cancer. He explains the effects the ordeal had on his family, and how he learned to experience joy amidst the chaos in his personal life, and our great nations. Our guest is a businessman, professional coach, author, and podcast host. Ladies & Gentlemen, welcome to the Bob DePasquale story!

GUEST BIO: 

Bob is an advocate of stewardship. He has always believed in taking care of the things that he has been blessed with. It is his mission to help others in doing the same.

Bob’s perspective derives from a battle with cancer at age 18. After growing up an only child it wasn’t until he was legally an adult that he felt alone. Having his life threatened at such a young age lead to a unique view of the gift that is vitality.

Bob now serves as the Founder of Initiate Impact Virtual Family offices – a wealth management firm dedicated to radical generosity. He also hosts the Speaking of Impact and Modern Legacies podcasts.
