Disability. I don’t even like the word let alone what it stands for. And most people think of something physical when they hear the word disability, but there are emotional disabilities as well.

They’re just invisible.

My guest on today’s episode of The Be Ruthless Show addresses physical AND emotional disabilities as well as the stigmas that come with them.

Shanice Green is a Transformational and empowerment mindset coach and disability advocate. She openly shares her story of multiple surgeries and life in a wheelchair to help others and to raise awareness.

Please help me share Griefhab with the world. With someone struggling. With someone who works with people struggling.

I survived my first Thanksgiving in Michigan without Jim…

It was so amazing being with my family and friends, and it was also extremely emotional. I’m beyond grateful for The Griefhab Community.

It’s my safe place. It’s my people. It’s my sanity.

It’s also my way of helping others get the support that I so desperately needed and couldn’t find.

And I need you - to help me share Griefhab. So no one struggles alone!

On today’s episode of The Be Ruthless Show, I discuss all of this as well as Griefhab Goes Global.

Join us on Tuesday, November 22 for a virtual event with an exciting announcement about Griefhab!!

I talk all the time about clients interviewing us to find the best fit. But we need to interview them, as well!!

I fired a client last week -

Not because I didn’t like her.

Not because I didn’t want to work with her.

Because I need to protect myself.

On today’s episode of The Be Ruthless Show, I discuss the clients who aren’t safe. I discuss the importance of documentation - for both our clients protection and our own.

Northern Colorado’s Thompson School District has invited mental health co-responders to assist school resource officers in the FIRST co-responder school program in Colorado.

THIS. IS. HUGE!!!

I’ve talked for 9 years about the differences in mental health care between Michigan and Colorado. This is common in Michigan - and we’re just now seeing the FIRST in Colorado.

On today’s episode of The Be Ruthless Show, I share my excitement! I also discuss what we all can do to make this more common - everywhere!

It’s been a week!! I know, it’s only Monday. But I’m talking about the past week. I was at the vet 3 times with these 2. Thankfully we’re all fine now.

But man - Life is hard.

Being a widow is hard.

And people everywhere are struggling.

So I’m offering some support groups through the holidays -

For anxiety

For loss

For You!

On today’s episode of The Be Ruthless Show, I discuss these groups as well as my birthday wish - Griefhab Goes Global.

Stress looks different for each and every one of us. And different things are stressful for different people.

No matter what causes you stress - the important thing is having healthy outlets. People. Activities. Self care.

It’s International Stress Awareness Day, and on todays episode of The Be Ruthless Show, I discuss why this day matters - and more!

Happy Halloween, Everyone.

Wanna hear something different? I’ve never loved Halloween. I know, I know -

I hear the reactions all of the time.

That’s what I talk about on today’s episode of The Be Ruthless Show: not loving something that the majority of the world loves. Or enjoying it in a different way.

There’s nothing wrong with me - or with you - for not liking certain traditions that the world celebrates. The issue is what we do about it -

And that applies to both those who are “in the minority” AND their friends and loved ones.
