In this segment, Things get turned inside out. Dixie Gillaspie interviews Todd Weaver in a turn of the tides. Todd is the Host of this very show and shares his story of overcoming the self inflicted obstacles he has encountered in his life and how he continues to seek insight and share his story. Our guest host Dixie, has been called a firestarter, a muse, and a blast through artist. But most people who know her just call her "Dynamite, a nickname she acquired in the second grade. In her words, she has been a coach, business consultant and analyst, a change agent, and a general trouble-shooter to entrepreneurs and business leaders for more years than she is willing to admit. She is the author of Just Blow it Up, Firepower for Living an Unlimited Life and a companion book, Doses of Dynamite, Firepower for Capturing the Inspiration in Everyday Things. Dixie considers herself more of a story teller than a speaker, but she’s shared the stage with the likes of Zig Ziglar, Bob Burg, John David Mann, Scott Ginsberg and Mark Sanborn. She's allergic to the word CAN'T and her Blast Thru Coaching method is a process for challenging, and even eliminating that word from your vocabulary.
