Show Host & Producer Bill Corbett is an award-winning author of numerous books and the manager of a Connecticut Independent Senior Living community. He is a U.S. Air Force veteran with many media projects under his belt on television and radio.

Dan Blanchard the Bestselling and Award-Winning, Author, Speaker, and Educator. TV Host. Two-time Junior Olympian Wrestler and two-time Junior Olympian Wrestling Coach who grew up as a student-athlete. However, Dan admits that as a youth he was more of an athlete than a student.  Dan has now successfully completed fourteen years of college and has earned seven degrees. He teaches Special Education and Social Studies in Connecticut’s largest inner-city high school where he was chosen by the AFT-CT as the face and voice of educational reform and is now on the speaking circuit for them. Dan was with the team that put forth Connecticut’s new Social Studies Frameworks and is also a member of the Special Education Advisory Board to the Connecticut State Department of Education. In addition, Dan is a Teacher Consultant for the University of Connecticut’s Writing Project. Dan is a double veteran of the Army and the Air Force. And there is now a play being written about his life.

Because Dan’s students repeatedly asked him to write a book to tell others what he tells them,  Dan finally listened and has now authored teen leadership books, The Storm: How Young Men Become Good Men, and its sequel, A Sprint to the Top: How to Win the Game of Life. He has also written academic books, parenting books, leadership books, sportsbooks, books on authorpreneurship, and more. Finally, Dan writes a dozen columns on things from leadership, teens, education, special education, and parenting.

As an educator, coach, tutor, author, speaker, life coach, columnist, blogger, parent, and TV Host, Dan feels that it is his duty to positively influence our youth everyone else too every chance that he gets! He lives with his wife, Jennifer, their five children, and the family dog in Connecticut.

What if a bill isn't covered under your Medicare plan. If Medicare does refuse to pay for a service under Original fee-for-service Part A or Part B, the beneficiary should receive a denial notice. Keep in mind that a medical provider is responsible for submitting a claim to Medicare for the medical service or procedure and not bill the member. But what if... ?

Dennis E. Golden is a a two-time prostate cancer survivor. He holds a master’s degree in social communications from New York University and has 40+ years of experience as a marketing executive, consultant, author and professional speaker. His wife says "it keeps him out of trouble."

While women openly discuss breast cancer awareness, men tend to retreat into silence and denial when facing any prostate issue. With over 3 million American men currently living with prostate cancer and almost 200,000 new cases every year why is there silence?

Like most men, Dennis believes that prostate cancer was the “good cancer” that men live with. But he was wrong and soon discovered it is the second leading cause of death of thousands of men behind lung cancer. With so much misinformation out there, he decided it was time to make a difference.

In 2014, he founded the National Prostate Cancer Awareness Foundation. The single mission of the Foundation is to raise national awareness about the hidden dangers of undiagnosed prostate cancer. While 90% of women and their partners are aware of breast cancer’s warning signs, only 40% of men know the warning signs for prostate cancer. The Foundation’s goal is to increase awareness levels to 80%.

Then recognizing the strong bond men can forge when facing a common threat, he launched The Prostate Cancer Coach in 2018 with the full support and cooperation of the National Prostate Cancer Awareness Foundation. Their joint goal is to engage men and their partners in one-on-one personal conversations where they are free to explore, ask questions and learn from someone who has walked the uncertain path of prostate cancer before them.

Dennis E. Golden is an international speaker, author, and highly regarded personal safety expert. He is the founder and CEO of IM-SAFE, a training and education firm dedicated to women's personal safer. Dennis is an active member of the National Speakers Association (NSA) and the Global Speakers Federation and is a past president of NSA/Connecticut.

His book, "What To Know, Do And Say To Be Safe," stands in sharp contrast to self-defense books that focus on the use of physical force solutions. This book shows that women and seniors do not need to live in fear … not from bullies …not from intimate partners … not from strangers. While an attack by a stranger is what many women dread and often prepare for, it occurs barely 10% of the time and … is the easiest to avoid.

In the real world, you are more likely to be stalked by a former partner, become a victim of workplace or domestic violence, or be victimized while traveling far more often than being assaulted by a stranger. 90% of the time you will be targeted, by someone you know and in location you believe is safe. Women and seniors at every age can benefit from this groundbreaking book by gaining the insight to remaining safe.
