The Power Project Podcast

In this week's episode, we hear from my friend Alicia Bush, Speaker, Author, Influencer, and Founder of Treasured Vessels Foundation. With a medical background, a home-builder for a husband, and unbridled passion, Alicia has built a foundation that will provide a safe, secure home for trafficked children once they are rescued.

This week she shares with us the business side of starting a non-profit and what it's like to motivate a team whether for sales or in an organization. She discusses how leveraging each person's strengths and vision casting can help further the mission.

She is willing to share her failures and missteps along the way in order to help other women that are pursuing their dreams and purpose in life while following God's call. For anyone wanting to know how to start a non-profit, motivate a sales team, meet with lawmakers, create community awareness, or fundraise, Alicia is an expert in the field.

Heck, if you just want someone that will encourage you to get out of your own way, she is the gal for the job! She is always motivating, inspiring, empowering, and her energy is simply contagious.

On today's episode, Maria Elena Infantino, an Italian born singer and actress that performs in 7 languages talks about breaking into the US music scene in spite of her original passion having been acting. She discusses overcoming obstacles, the power of networking, and the willingness to be flexible and embrace the journey.

Maria studies acting at The London Academy of Live and Recorded Arts. After graduation, she starred in the ITV Yorkshire television series "Emmerdale", and began her singing career at the Royal Albert Hall, with Dame Shirley Bassey for the 50th Beatles anniversary.

She then produced her first west end show in London in honor of her late father, the legendary tenor, Luigi Infantino. She moved to Los Angeles after being nominated as best international singer at the LA Music Awards in 2011.

Her LA debut was at the Marilyn Monroe theatre at the Lee Strasberg institute with her one woman show on Edith Piaf.

Her many credits and collaborations include working with Maestro Andrea Morriconme, Maestro Umberto Scipione, Mike Stoller, and concerts in prestigious venues worldwide .

However, my favorite accolades for Maria include those where she serves non-profits. She is on the advisory board of directors for CNN hero, Bruce Serato's charity, "Caterina's Club" which feeds 5,000 underprivileged children in the US per day. She also recently accepted a seat on the Ranch Hand Rescue advisory board, where the organization brings together severely abused people and severely abused animals for a counseling program.

Maria's current disco show, "Bambino" a tribute to Dalida, debuts in LA December 5th which is SOLD OUT. However, you can still get tickets for Thursday Dec. 6, 2018 @ http://greenwaycourttheatre.org/dalida/

How a former teen mom and stripper transitioned into a life coach and minister. Joining us on the show today is Coach Nikki Fisher! I would like to preface this episode with the fact that Coach Nikki and I have never met in person and I didn't know that much about her story. I just knew that she was a life coach and minister, and that her platform was similar to mine in that she coaches and empowers others.

Little did I know, she has a heart for the same people that I do and a very similar mission. God did a beautiful work in this interview and spun it into a full blown church service where Coach Nikki ministered to all of us. This interview just gets better as it goes on so be sure to stick around for the end.

Coach Nikki's book is coming out April 2019 & is titled "I Know You are but What am I?"
