The Goodness Chick

We have different seasons in life. There are times life can be really,
really tough. Throw in the struggle of addiction, mental illness or issues at
work or home and it can be even tougher.

In all things, fighting for a positive outlook on life holds significant weight.
My guest, Ally , a volunteer in Brasov from Ireland shares her struggles
from the loss of her father at 16, to struggles with anxiety and depression
and how vital a positive mindset was through each stage in life.

Ally has been to Romania 16 times to serve, give and go beyond herself.
Currently, she is serving with Firm Foundations of Romania. She shares
how giving back and loving others has altered her path in life.

Our lives can be altered and our view of life can be changed when we make the decision to serve others. Sarah Vienna, co-founder of Firm Foundations, and Andreea, a local Romanian who went through the program and is now working with the organization full-time as a licensed social worker share the power of giving.
Firm Foundations is a non-profit organization based in Brasov, Romania. They serve children of Romania through providing volunteers to hold babies in the local hospital who are either orphans or in long-term care, they raise funds for providing diapers and formula for children as well as their after school program that allows for support and hope for those who might otherwise fall through the system’s cracks.
Firm Foundations is saving lives and is having a domino effect of hope for the people of Romania. Interested in donating to an AMAZING organization?

It's easy to be overwhelmed by how BIG the world is. The truth is, when we take opportunities to be still and engage with others who seem different than us through religion, culture or language we can easily realize how SMALL the world really is and how much we have in common. Roger and Edgar from Lebanon, are my guests speaking of resiliency (Roger is a survivor of Nepal's earthquake in 2015), the need for kindness and the power of a bucket list.

Kevin from the Philadelphia Project and three high school seniors share their thoughts and visions.

Marijuana, has been demonized on many platforms.

Today's episode focuses on the medicinal benefits of THC (psycho active) strand and CBD (non-psycho active) strand. David Buscemi and I chat about the various forms of use, the medicinal benefits and the importance of doing your research for you and your loved ones. Prescription pills can have wonderful medical benefits, but when many are over prescribed or not properly monitored chatting about other alternatives is something we owe ourselves. The more we know, the stronger we are. #selfcare #wellness #parentingteens #mentalhealth #helper

Summer is a pivotal time for many of our kids. It's easy to let summer just happen. Having a game plan in keeping our kids connected and enjoying their time is important. One of the coolest ways to keep summer from being funk fest is to create a bucket list individually and as a family unit. Let's get our summer stoke on!
