  • Episode 87 – Nicole and Michael Karnowski – Cultivating Transformation Through Coaching, Consulting and Training
    Opposites attract!  These two have taken their dedication to maintaining a strong and connected relationship and turned it into a working partnership and business that helps other individuals, couples, families, organizations, etc. spend more time enjoying life, being productive and moving efficiently out of ruts in life and business, retain employees and much more with Metamorphosis CCT  (Coaching, Consulting and Training.)
    Michael and Nicole have VERY different working styles and ways they operate in the world or replenish their energy.   They talk about how this made for some very interesting challenges as they came together in business.  I think it adds to their skills, teaching ability and flexibility as they train others in leadership and relationship.
    They are both John Maxwell Certified Coaches, they do leadership training, DISC Assessment and training and much more!  (DISC is a Model of human behavior: how you are wired, interact with people, conflict, how you write goals, fitness programs that fit you, etc.
    I had a great time with them learning more deeply about the breadth of the work they do, how passionate they are about helping work places function much more efficiently, and how they help couples and families gain insight to how they can function as a whole with individual great individual differences.
    Great stories about people they have helped, their own aha
    moments and growing pains and wins working in business as husband and wife.

  • Episode 86 – Adeline Wright – Gag Me With a Spoon – a Community Story Share

    Calling all storytellers, experienced or not – And those who love to connect with others and other perspectives through listening.

    Adeline’s creation is building community connection and understanding in a safe space that invites us to share our stories, challenges, struggles, experiences; what makes us who we are. Creating a loving and supportive environment encouraging us to be brave and vulnerable for those experienced storytellers and especially those who are not.   Those who might not otherwise have a platform to speak from but have a story inside them. 

    Adeline encourages us to read from our diaries. “A public confessional.”

    Inspired by “Mortified” out of Seattle. (sharing of personal diaries), Adeline

    shares the history of  Gag Me With A
    Spoon, the why and how it has morphed into what it has become today.   Her difficult divorce and time have shaped
    her understanding of the power of the narrative.

    She shares her philosophy, the experience and challenges of

    hosting an open event like this.  And how
    her salon atmosphere opens people up to forward moving conversations.

    We end by giving you a taste with a story excerpt taken from

    a story at a recent Gag Me With A Spoon.

    This community story share happens the second Sunday of each

  • Episode 84 – Joel Bamford – Our skin, the Sun, Benefits, Drawbacks and Care

    Joel Bamford, dermatologist, brings his passion of helping us know the ways around caring for our skin after his retirement.   He spent some time with me so we can all be reminded that the sun has great health protective benefits and some drawbacks in its power. And, the drawbacks of getting too little.

    We touch on Vitamin D, best times to get access to it here in the Northland, the FDA’s suggestion for safe sun blocking chemicals, tanning and safety in its various forms, and the cultural influence conundrum.

    Claudia Cottrell with Animal Kingdom Chiropractic shares her

    journey from chiropractor for humans to finding an ease and passion now as a
    chiropractor for animals.  Why would an
    animal need a chiropractor?

    How do they respond to her care?

    Claudia’s education and 

    experience as a chiropractor for humans for many years before dedicating
    her work to animals makes her a great resource with this work.

    What did we talk about?

    • What types of animals she typically sees.
    • What seems to allow animals to respond more quickly to care than humans.
    • Things we might see in our animals letting us know they may need support from a animal chiropractor.
    • The history of animal chiropractors and why chiropractic certification is so important.

  • Episode 80 – Mel Alvar – Insights into Sex Trafficking

    Mel is the Safe Harbor NE MN Regional Navigator for PAVSA (Program

    for Aid to Victims of Sexual Assault).

    Our discussion was a great opportunity to gain a better understanding about what trafficking is and where it is happening or can happen – surprising and disturbing information.  She opens our eyes to what a “typical” trafficker might look like or who they might be.  Also, who is trafficked and why it might be hard for someone to get out of a trafficking situation.

    We talk about media and the concerns that are perpetuated, and the staggering information about what isn’t covered and the misconception that leaves us with.

    There are ways we can help if we feel called.  Everything from volunteering to donating

    clothes, bags, purses, toiletries, etc. Anything one might need if they show up
    needing help with only the clothes on their back.  

    She shares some dos and don’ts if you think you see

    something that doesn’t feel right,  as
    well as additional resources to get help or get involved.

    Mel does outreach and trainings for the general public, businesses and industries in the seven county area around Duluth.  If you think you might benefit by greater awareness please consider contacting her or the information below.

  • Episode 79 – Matthew Tims – Digital Marketing Specialist

    Matthew’s experience, entrepreneurial spirit and skills moved him from his original plan to be a music teacher and a music instrument store owner to working with businesses to increase their visibility especially on social media and profits.

    What is a marketing guy doing

    on a health and wellness podcast?

    I, Judy, think we could

    explore that topic for many hours!

    In this case… we took just

    one.

    We are faced with so much

    information that comes at us.  Most of it
    is designed to entice in us a particular emotion or influence us to a
    particular action of their design.

    He reminds us that newspapers

    and online media outlets are a businesses vying for our eyes, our attention,
    our mouse clicks. Not for our best interest.

    We have more mental, illness,

    anxiety, etc.  How much of this is a
    result of the chaos created mentioned above?

    Matt is here to share his

    perspectives on this and give us tools, 6 principals of persuasion to help
    remind us how the marketing world is trying to influence us so we might be able
    to see through it and make decisions based more fully on what works for us
    instead of being lead by their hand for their wishes.

    We talk about the health and

    wellness industry.

    He shares his ideas on how to

    build a good product based business

    And more.
