As heard on The Debbie Nigro Show

There's a hot new real estate migration trend picking up steam among Northeasterners and former Floridians: they’re becoming “Halfbacks”—people who moved to Florida, found it a little too much (too hot, too humid, too everything), and are now settling halfway back up the East Coast. Their happy medium? Coastal North Carolina.

On The Debbie Nigro Show, I got the inside scoop from Jason Faulkner, General Manager of Kingfish Bay Development in Calabash, NC—one of the fastest-growing destinations for these lifestyle-minded movers that's just minutes from Sunset Beach and Ocean Isle. They recently won a prestigious 'Best Outdoor Living Award'  for their exceptional integration of indoor-outdoor living spaces from the Wilmington-Cape Fear Home Builders Association. 

 Key Takeaways:

·       Halfbacks Are Flocking In: Retirees and pre-retirees from New York, New Jersey, Boston, Philly, and Florida are relocating to Calabash for its mild four seasons, coastal charm, and resort-style living.

        Kingfish Bay Is Hitting the Sweet Spot : Award-winning home styles, riverfront views, private beach club access (with actual parking!), and outdoor living spaces with pools, porches, fireplaces, are what people seem to want. They also are drawn to a great fitness center, the tropical pool complex, fishing pier, outdoor amenities—and pickleball nearby for the fans.

·       Laid-Back, Not Boring: Calabash is just minutes from Myrtle Beach and close to Wilmington, giving residents easy access to top-notch golf, restaurants, entertainment, and healthcare.

One question I just had to ask Jason on behalf of some women I know. How’s the hair weather there? 

"You know there are women who would not intentionally move to a place with bad hair weather. Just saying." – Debbie Nigro 😄 

That issue is neither hair nor there for most people wanting to flee the Florida heat or looking to trade in snow boots for flip-flops – they just agree the the "halfway back" lifestyle trend might be a welcome next move.

This story of mind-blowing resilience is a wake-up call for anyone feeling stuck, sidelined, or afraid to bounce back.

On a recent episode of The Debbie Nigro Show, I had the joy of speaking with global wellness pioneer Dan Metcalf—international performer turned brain-injury survivor, Olympic coach, and now CEO of Total Balance Company and Born Superhuman.

Hard to believe this superhuman got in touch with me to see if I was interested in uncovering how we could inspire listeners together. 

Here’s what I read when I opened his blind email to me.

Hey Debbie.

“I've been following The Debbie Nigro Show and truly appreciate the inspiring stories you bring to light. I believe I could add a compelling angle to your discussions with my unique journey in health and mental resilience. As someone who has performed live for over 5,000,000 people globally and played lead roles in Andrew Lloyd Webber shows, I've learned resilience like no other, especially after being paralyzed during a performance. This experience resulted in a brain injury in 2018, leading to partial brain death, but through sheer determination, I've completely recovered and continued to inspire others.”

I wrote him back….” You had me at Hey Debbie!” lol

SO… here’s Dan Metcalfs story.

Once paralyzed during a live performance of Starlight Express in Las Vegas, doctors told Dan he’d never walk again. Instead of giving in, he rewrote the script of his life—and proved them wrong. By tapping into the brain’s natural ability to heal, he discovered how to turn trauma into transformation.

“Why be a victim when you can be a hero?” Dan said. “And the hero isn’t for other people—it’s for yourself.”

Now fully recovered (after surviving two traumatic brain injuries), Dan’s groundbreaking work in brain-to-body mobility training is helping over 70,000 people worldwide—including individuals with Parkinson’s, MS, and seniors at risk of falling—reclaim their balance, strength, and sense of self.

Dan is living proof of the extraordinary potential within us all. From performing for millions in Andrew Lloyd Webber shows to creating life-changing innovations in human performance, his journey embodies the unwavering determination and resilience we all have access to. He’s trained tens of thousands—and learned from every real-life obstacle he’s faced.

“Turn hope into belief,” he says. “We are all born superhuman.”

Life Changing Training for Aging Longevity

Dan Metcalfs’ Total Balance Board system isn’t about fancy equipment—it’s about reactivating the miracle machine we already have: the brain.

When he first created the now-patented training system, Dan had no idea just how dynamic its impact would be. At its core, Total Balance is based on the belief that no challenge is unbeatable when met with determination, creativity, and empathy. His methods are redefining what’s possible in both peak performance and physical rehabilitation—at every age.

“Balance is the foundation of a successful physical life,” Dan says, “and my passion lies in helping people overcome challenges with movement, stability, and confidence.”

Key Takeaways:

• Falls are the #1 cause of injury-related death in seniors. Dan’s system helps rewire the brain to prevent them.
• His motto? “We don’t stop playing because we age. We age because we stop playing.”
• He believes we all have superhuman potential—and he’s living proof.

From performing for 5 million people to coaching Olympic athletes and now as a highly in demand motivational speaker, Dan Metcalf is showing the world that comeback stories aren’t just possible—they’re powerful. His story isn’t just about survival—it’s a blueprint for unlocking the extraordinary in all of us.

“Never underestimate the power you have. Every challenge has a solution.” — Dan Metcalf, Born Superhuman

 If you thought lobster rolls were just food, think again. They're fashion now, too! On The Debbie Nigro Show, Debbie caught up with her “sister from another mother,” Andrea Anthony — the iconic entrepreneur behind Lunch Lobster Roll in Amagansett and Southampton — to talk lobster love, restaurant buzz, and lobster pajamas (yes, really).

I try and track the latest trends and surprisingly discovered ‘Lobster Fashion’ was trending? Wow, I was seriously behind the lobster claw curve on this one! Then I searched online to see what I could find out and came upon endless items of clothing bearing ‘Lobsters’! Sweaters, purses and pajamas to name a few.

I was talking about the trend on my radio show and mentioned I should probably check in with my lobster business gal pal and see what’s up. So, after the show I texted Andrea Anthony and asked her if her ears were ringing, and she texted me back a photo of her Lobster Pajamas!

I cracked up and had to know more and invited Andrea to pop by my radio show.

It all started Andrea said, when the upscale kids' clothing brand Pink Chicken approached her with a fun idea: co-branded lobster pajamas using her famous restaurant’s logo. The limited-edition $65 sets sold out.

Sensing these comfy lobster pajamas had legs at a more affordable price for more people Andrea partnered with TJ Maxx for them to be sold at stores across the country. The only problem? Andrea has no idea where they ended up! 

“People keep asking me where to buy them and I’m like... I have no idea! So I thought—why not turn it into a lobster pajama hunt?”

Now it’s a full-blown scavenger hunt with a tasty prize.

First 5 people who find her lobster roll pajamas at TJ Maxx and report back to her on either her Instagram or Facebook win gift cards to Lunch Lobster Roll.

(BTW Andrea monitors every single social comment herself and responds - and she’s been doing that personally forever)

But Andrea isn’t just about fun and fluff. She’s a master of smart brand partnerships!

Big Bites of News from Andrea Anthony and ‘LUNCH Lobster Roll’!

Chopt Collaboration: Her famous lobster salad is now in select Chopt locations, including Penn Station and the Upper East Side, in a special summer salad collab featuring their ginger sesame and creamy Caesar dressings.

Hamptons Happy Meal at American Cut: Get 2 lobster rolls, truffle fries or Caesar salad, and a martini for just $28 from 5–7 PM. The full crew is even doing a ticketed steak + lobster dinner at Andrea’s Southampton location July 18–19.

Lobster Roll Sliders: For the budget-conscious, Lunch Lobster Roll offers two sliders, fries, slaw, and a drink for just $22–$23 — the best deal in the Hamptons!

Andrea is genuinely one of the warmest coolest gals I’ve ever met. Great woman and brilliant businesswoman. I love her! 

Enjoy this fun podcast of the live conversation with Andrea Anthony on The Debbie Nigro Show.

Now let’s all try and help her find her Lobster Pajamas at some TJ Maxx. Ha! 

As heard on The Debbie Nigro Show – Wellness Wednesday Edition

Move over French fries, there's a new crispy craving in town — and it’s doing more than just satisfying your snack attack. It’s feeding schoolkids, shaking up convenience stores, and making waves nationwide. Meet Stephen Caldwell, founder of Stuft Tots™, the world’s first patented stuffed shredded potato bite.

These aren’t your average tots. Think crispy outside, gooey inside — filled with real Wisconsin cheese, veggies, or meats — all under 60 calories, gluten-free, non-GMO, and made with just five clean ingredients.

Stephen’s inspiration? A cheese-stuffed hashbrown he tasted at a catering event in Brazil that gave him goosebumps. Unable to find anything like it back home in Portland, he and his wife Lory turned their kitchen into a lab (with help from Oregon State’s food incubator) — and later, their tot mission into a movement.

But this isn’t just a food story. It’s a comeback story.

After losing ‘everything’ in a business betrayal, the Caldwell’s literally started from scratch. They spent 15 months hand-making 2,000 tots a week — simultaneously feeding the homeless in partnership with the Oregon Food Bank. Alongside their two daughters, they turned hardship into purpose and passion.

Fast forward to today! The Stuft Tots™ story now includes:

·      Winner of Convenience Store News 2024’s Best New Product Award!

·      Loved by high schoolers in Alameda CA School District (8700 students’ approval)

·      Blew the doors off a Holiday Station Stores test run — selling out 40,000 lbs. of tots in 6 days

·      Now powered by high-speed “co-extruder” machines in a booming Las Vegas production facility

·      Soon to be in stadiums, schools, coffee chains, and convenience outlets nationwide

Stephen’s motto? “If everybody waited for money to start a business, no businesses would be started.”

AND check out Stephen’s Feature Story in the June issue of the Food Industry’s Premier News Source: “Total Food Service” a fantastic publication published by Fred Klashman which features exclusive Q&A Interviews with influential chefs, hospitality trendsetters, and foodservice operators, as well as the latest foodservice industry news on products, trends, associations, and events.

Stephen Caldwell’s inspiring journey is a powerful reminder to - as I always say… “Risk it! or Regret it!”

And trust me — once you try Stuft Tots™, you can’t un-taste the magic.

I loved this guy’s passion, comeback story and his Stuft Tots™ so much I’m want to help him succeed by helping him expand. 

If you’d like a personal introduction to Stephen just direct message me and I’ll set it up asap. Want to be one of the first to bring them to your school, stadium, store, or bar/restaurant? Get in touch.

Tune in to this energetic podcast interview with Stephen Caldwell heard live on The Debbie Nigro Show - but only if you want to hear a really authentic story told by a truly gritty and great entrepreneur.

From The Debbie Nigro Show Podcast

Let’s face it—we all want to keep doing the things we love. But one unexpected twist, fall, or awkward step (looking at you, pickleball!) and suddenly we’re dealing with pain that lingers longer than our last relationship.

On this episode of The Debbie Nigro Show, Dr. Alan Siegel, co-founder of ProClinix, brings 30+ years of insight on how to recover from injuries, manage chronic pain, and keep your body moving—without relying on surgery or medications.

Here are the key takeaways anyone—anywhere—can benefit from:

 Injury Prevention Starts Before You’re in Pain

Dr. Siegel stresses that many injuries, especially from fast-growing sports like pickleball, happen because people jump into activities without prepping their bodies. Tendons, joints, and muscles need maintenance—just like your car!

 Integrated Care = Faster, Smarter Healing

At ProClinix, they take a modern approach to recovery—combining chiropractic, physical therapy, acupuncture, massage therapy, and even regenerative medicine like PRP. This whole-body, drug-free strategy is gaining popularity across the U.S. for its effectiveness in treating everything from back pain to vertigo.

No Script? No Problem!

In many states like New York, you don’t need a prescription to start physical therapy. That means you can get help right away, instead of waiting weeks or months in pain.

 Yes, Balance Issues Can Be Treated!

Think you just have to live with dizziness or gait problems? Think again. Dr. Siegel explains how physical therapy and specialized maneuvers can dramatically improve balance—and often offer instant relief from symptoms like vertigo.

 From Young Athletes to Aging Joints—They Treat It All

Whether it’s your teenager’s sports injury or your mom’s hip pain, integrative practices like ProClinix are designed to treat the whole family, no matter the age or condition.

 Where Can You Find ProClinix?

If you’re in the New York Metro area, you’re in luck. ProClinix has 7 locations (and growing) including Armonk, Larchmont, West Harrison, Yorktown Heights, Tarrytown, Ardsley, Pleasantville—and a new clinic opening soon in Mount Kisco.

  Not local? Use this episode as a wellness checklist for choosing an integrated rehab provider wherever you are!

Tune in to this podcast episode of The Debbie Nigro Show to hear Dr. Siegel’s real talk about the body, the pain, and how to get back to living your life.

Thrift Shops & Online Hustles Are Booming

On this week’s Trending Tuesday on The Debbie Nigro Show, we talked tariffs, thrift shops, and thriving through turbulence.

Whether you’re bargain hunting or business-minded, there’s never been a better time to think secondhand—or second income!

According to the 2024 Thrift Industry Report by Savers Value Village 16-18% of Americans shop at thrift stores each year: 12 to 15% shop at consignment or resale stores.

Nearly 90% of consumers have shopped or donated at a Thrift Store up from 83% in 2022.

It’s The Ultimate Treasure Hunt

Personally, I will donate through one door and then go back in and shop through another door. LOL I love the treasure hunt fun and get excited when I find something unique! It could be anything! 

Meanwhile the report went on to say…

*Among the many incredible changes the thrift industry has seen in recent years, one of the most significant is the mainstreaming of this once-niche retail segment. 

*Long seen as serving those on a limited budget, secondhand has emerged as a symbol of creativity and individuality and now appeals to a wide range of shoppers who are increasingly seeking value—and style.

 *Another notable trend is the growing environmental awareness of consumers who are putting the planet first by choosing secondhand.

I was joined by Parag Amin, a savvy Los Angeles business attorney who helps entrepreneurs avoid costly mistakes (like the one that derailed his father’s American dream).

Parag shared how rising prices from tariffs are pushing more people toward secondhand shopping—and why that shift is also sparking big-time opportunity.

From consignment goldmines to online stores, more people are flipping used goods and making real money. Think resale clothing, Amazon brands, and influencer-fueled product lines. It’s all about low overhead, smart sourcing, and even smarter risk management. And yes, Parag’s seen clients go from leggings to luxury lifestyles—literally!

Pro tip from Parag: Want to test a resale biz? Start with consignment. No upfront cost, no inventory headaches, and way less risk.

Tune in for insights, laughs, and inspiration—

From the Stage to the Soul:

Robin Lloyd’s A Believer’s Perspective on Life, Legacy & Faith

On the latest episode of The Debbie Nigro Show, I had the real honor of talking with Robin Lloyd—a man whose life journey reads like a Hollywood script… but with a whole lot more heart.

Robin started his career as a singer, sharing stages with Marvin Gaye, Tina Turner, James Brown, The Supremes, and more. He was part of the legendary Dick Clark Caravan of Stars, toured with iconic names, and was even managed by Shelly Berger (yep, the longtime manager of The Temptations).

But fame wasn’t enough.

After a moment of soul-searching (and realizing money doesn’t buy peace), Robin walked away from music and built a new life—literally. He became a celebrated minority homebuilder, landing on the cover of Builder Architect Magazine. Then, life threw another curveball: a traumatic car accident that left him fighting for his life and re-learning to walk and talk.

Out of that pain came purpose.

During his recovery, Robin began writing reflections—snippets of wisdom and gratitude—which eventually became his new book, A Believer’s Perspective.

With the encouragement of our mutual longtime friend Paul Lambert, and the help of my favorite book coach Donna Kozik, Robin's dream book became a reality.

His book is about hope, perspective, and divine connection. 

“Everybody has a perspective,” Robin said on the show. “I just decided to share mine.”

 Tune in to this podcast of our live conversation on The Debbie Nigro Show and hear his incredible story, his time with greatness, his lessons from loss—and why believing is the most powerful thing we can do.

Hey friends, Debbie Nigro here—and yes, I was literally clapping for collagen on the air.

I’ve officially joined the collagen revolution thanks to NativePath, and I feel GOOD about it. 

So good, I invited their brilliant co-founder, Dr. Chad Walding, on The Debbie Nigro Show to spill the truth about this stuff that’s got my knees, skin, hair, and even my outlook bouncing back.

Here’s the scoop from our chat…

Collagen Is the Missing Link

According to Dr. Chad, our ancestors used to get collagen naturally from eating “nose to tail.” But today? We’re practically collagen-starved—relying on packaged junk, added sugars, and zero bone broth. Not ideal for staying alive and kicking over 50!

Why Grass-Fed Collagen Matters

Dr. Chad broke down the difference between “happy cows” (grass-fed, hormone-free, sunshine-loving) and sad factory-farmed ones. NativePath’s collagen comes from cows living their best lives—which means better results for your bones, joints, and glow.

Reasons to Take Collagen After 50

Here are just a few:

1.   Bone-on-bone pain? Collagen helps rebuild joint tissue.

2.   Calcium confusion? Turns out, collagen—not calcium—is the real MVP for bone strength.

3.   Skin, hair, and nails? Fast improvement. My hair grew so fast I need to color it more often!

4.   Better recovery, more energy, smoother digestion, and the list goes on...

Not All Collagen is Created Equal

Most of what’s out there is low-quality, smelly, clumpy, or made from fish or chicken—not ideal.

NativePath sticks with type 1 and type 3 bovine collagen, the exact kind our bodies crave.

Dr. Chad Walding is passionate about sharing his little-known tips for supporting bone density, soothing joint discomfort, and boosting mobility. I found his information truly enlightening.

I encourage you to go to this link (lovenativepath.com/alive) and read…

7 reasons everyone over 50 should be taking THIS kind of protein

For those who don't know, declining bone and joint health is a major reason we feel sore and stiff in the mornings.

But most importantly, Dr. Chad Walding has seen people achieve incredible reversals with a simple nutritional fix.

Something this simple could help you regain independence and mobility...

even if you think it's too late.

I’m In—and Feeling It

I now put NativePath collagen in my coffee every morning. It’s tasteless, clump-free, and now for me... non-negotiable based on what I’ve learned.

Because guess what? Your best days are NOT behind you!

I did it! I took a chance, followed my gut, and launched something brand new. I told myself what I always tell you guys…Risk It! or Regret It!

Introducing my brand-new short-form syndicated radio feature: “Keeping the ‘Live’ in Alive! with Debbie Nigro” Proudly sponsored by NativePath Collagen — the stuff that’s got me hiking again, baby!

For the past 6 months, I’ve been secretly developing this new ‘thing’’. Figuring out what it should be, how it should sound, and who would be open enough to collaborate with me.

Why this, why now?

Lately, I’ve found myself diving into wellness like never before. Not just for fun (though some of it is hilarious), but because my biological clock feels more like a ticking time bomb these days.

I’m trying to maximize my remaining time on this planet as are many other people I know.

I’m constantly researching and talking about mental wellness, physical wellness, nutrition, longevity, and all the weird and wonderful science behind staying vibrant and ALIVE. And sharing it all on my “Wellness Wednesday” segments of The Debbie Nigro Show just wasn’t enough anymore.

So, I created this new feature — fast-moving, funny, and full of fascinating wellness info — to syndicate nationwide.

AND I’m testing it out in real time. 

The Launch 🚀

On Monday, April 7th, I debuted the first of my four “Keeping the ‘Live’ in Alive! with Debbie Nigro” features each which will air 1x a day for 7 days across multiple network shows on the Red Apple Audio Network and its Flagship Station WABC Radio NY. The feature gets personally introduced by high-profile hosts — which, I admit, after listening in from the oustide - gave me a huge kick! (So did all the random high-five texts I got from friends who happened to catch it on-air!)

Enter: NativePath Collagen. This best-in-class wellness brand stepped up as my first sponsor. And I’m genuinely grateful — not just because they’re backing me, but because their product really works. (More on that below…)

Ready to hear the very first radio feature?

Take a listen and PUHHHLEASE BUY THE COLLAGEN!

It works! and it helps support my good work!

OK Here’s the transcript of Feature #1

Announcer:

Now here’s “Keeping the ‘Live’ in Alive! with Debbie Nigro” sponsored by NativePath Collagen.

Debbie:

Ever wake up one day and feel like you aged overnight?

You're not imagining it. You did. (lol)

Scientists have now confirmed what we've all suspected. We age in bursts, not slowly, not gradually, but in molecular surprise parties, just without the balloons.

According to research in the Journal of Nature Aging, we hit two major aging jumps, one around 44, another around 60.

That's when your body suddenly goes, Surprise! Here's some wrinkles, and here's maybe a weird pain in your knee.

Researchers followed 108 people for years looking at their DNA, their proteins, even their gut microbiomes. And they found most molecules in the body change in big, accelerated shifts at those exact ages.

In our 40s, fat and muscle start to shift. In our 60s, we start losing more muscle and the risk for things like heart disease and diabetes spikes. Okay, there's good news. Now that we know this, science can help us catch problems earlier and keep us healthier longer. So, if you're 43 or 59, what I would do is… hydrate, stretch, and hang on. I'm Debbie Nigro.

LIVE ENDORSEMENT FOR NATIVEPATH COLLAGEN

Debbie:

I always joke that I'm delusionally young and outrageously fun.

Truth is, I'm blowing a body part a week over here. No joke.

Stopped mid-hike, limped out of the woods alone while my boyfriend kept going because my knee was killing me.

I thought about collagen, and I caught an old friend in a Native Path collagen ad raving about how her knees felt better. She had more energy, her hair, her nails, her skin looked amazing.

So, I got some, started putting it in my coffee every day.

No taste, no lumps.

Now I'm back, walking strong, full of energy.

Hey guys, it’s Debbie Nigro — and today, I want to introduce you to someone whose spirit will stick with you long after you finish reading this.

Meet John Chiorando — a brilliant businessman, devoted family man, and philanthropist — and yes, the self-proclaimed “Coconut Commander” behind the fast-growing beverage brand Once Upon a Coconut.

But it’s not just about the coconuts.

It’s about "Greatitude." Not a typo. It’s the name of John’s new book — a powerful message born from unimaginable heartbreak: the loss of his beautiful daughter, Nina, to a rare form of terminal cancer called Leptomeningeal Disease.

A Book Born From Heartache — and Healing

John didn’t plan to write a book. But when his young son once complained about not getting enough Christmas presents, something clicked. He realized how much of today’s culture is focused on what we lack, rather than what we have.

So he wrote Greatitude, a message-driven book that gently shifts our lens toward appreciation, especially for life’s simplest joys — like a cup of coffee, a walk on the beach, or time with someone we love.

Then Nina got sick.

And suddenly, what started as a lesson in thankfulness became a tribute to her courage — and a platform for purpose.

As John shared on the show:

“My colleague told me, ‘You didn’t write this book. Your daughter did.’”

And you know what? She did.

100% of Book Proceeds Go to Charity

Every single dollar from the purchase of Greatitude goes to one of two causes close to John’s heart:

Nina Strong Foundation for rare cancer research Down Syndrome Foundation (another personal connection in his family)

And as a thank-you?

You get a free case of Once Upon a Coconut when you buy the book.

(Love that part!)

Once Upon a Coconut: Coconut Water With a Cause

You’ve probably seen the bright, playful cans of Once Upon a Coconut on shelves — I spotted it in a DeCicco's here in New York and literally stopped in my tracks.

It’s more than delicious (hello, coconut + chocolate?!), it’s also doing good:

Plant-based, non-GMO, full of electrolytes Ethically sourced from Vietnam And here’s the biggie: 10% of all profits go to charity.

As John says:

“Giving is our best ingredient.”

Even Shark Tank’s Daymond John and NFL stars like Rob Gronkowski and Ronnie Stanley are investors. But it’s the mission that’s the real magnet.

Fastest-Growing Coconut Water Brand in America

From Whole Foods to Walmart to Target — Once Upon a Coconut is popping up everywhere. And it’s not just good business — it’s good energy.

As John says:

“We call it nature’s Gatorade.”

Cheers to that!

Final Sips of Inspiration

Talking with John was a reminder that life is fragile, beautiful, and worthy of deep appreciation — even in the face of heartbreak... in spite of it all.

If you want to feel better, do better, and drink something better… Pick up a copy of Greatitude. Sip some coconut water with purpose. And maybe, just maybe, start seeing the world through a lens of Greatitude too.

With heart, Debbie
