Episode #72 - Impact of Empathy with Shari Bookstaff
The reason I started this show was my journey through medical misdiagnosis and gaslighting. Today I have a beautiful guest who shares her own story and how it inspired her to create a non-profit that teaches the benefits of empathy in the medical system.
Shari Bookstaff had fulfilled her lifelong childhood dreams and was a tenured marine biology professor near San Francisco. She was thriving in her career and her personal life when sporadic dizzy spells and nausea led to a diagnosed benign brain tumor. Even though this was a large tumor that had to be removed immediately, it would be an “easy, routine surgery.” Then, the unthinkable happened. A 9-day hospital stay turned into 9 months of grueling rehabilitation. A stroke following the surgery took away Shari’s ability to breathe, eat, talk, hear and move. After several weeks in the hospital during which Shari was fed through a tube and breathed through machines, she was transferred to a rehabilitation center an hour away from her home. The only thing giving Shari the will to live was the love and devotion of her kids, then 12 and 8 years old. She has worked hard every day since to regain her dignity, her livelihood, and her spirit. Shari is living proof that determination, hard work, and positivity are the cornerstones to overcoming tragedy.
Shari chronicles her medical journey in her book, “When Life Throws You Lemons…Make Cranberry Juice!”
The fundamental message in Shari’s book is to look for and accept positive entities into your heart, even amid raging lemons. These positive entities (“cranberries”) will enhance
your ability to cope with lemons. Actions that make a difference have always been a cranberry for Shari. She took a leadership role in Expanding Your Horizons, a conference which exposes young girls to STEM fields and established a local chapter of a national whale and dolphin conservation organization, the American Cetacean Society. Following the inconsistent level of compassion and empathy she received from medical professionals after brain surgery, she founded the nonprofit Lifetime of Impact! to provide inspiration to healthcare students by presenting her story and offering tangible tips to improve their connection to patients. Shari later founded Impact of Empathy, leading workshops for companies that covet enhanced customer service skills, greater employee retention, and a cooperative workplace atmosphere. Special workshops for healthcare professionals reveal the secret sauce of patient engagement.

She shares with us today what she has learned about feminine and masculine energy, no it has nothing to do with gender or biology and how to fill our own love tanks in order to be ready and available when Mr. or Mrs. Right comes along...and they will!
Lylian is a dating and relationship coach who specializes in feminine energy. She understands the deep desires and pains of modern single women. As a dating and relationship expert, she focuses on amplifying feminine energy to its fullest potential. Lylian empowers women to harness their inherent magnetism, ensuring they not only attract but also sustain the connection with their ideal partner.

*REPLAY* Episode #13 - Zebras Do Exist with Brandy Goodman. Living with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome.
Brandy Champagne is an extraordinary person who has Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, Autism, and ADHD who has been disabled for a good portion of their life. A common issue for disabled people is that they rely on others to provide their food and dietary needs. After experiencing a breakthrough when adopting a plant-based diet it inspired them to learn how to safely and simply get back into the kitchen and create an opportunity to be involved in their own care.
Brandy is currently writing a book that will share how they did that to inspire and teach other disabled people how to ease their way back into the kitchen and prepare nutritious food full of benefits to the body and mind.
This episode is titled Zebras do exist because a common theme in medical school for doctors was that if you hear hoofbeats expect to see a horse, not a zebra. Meaning your first investigation should be for a common issue, not an obscure disease. However, that philosophy has led to people with chronic illnesses having to prove that all the common, obvious reasons are not the culprit through a process of elimination.
Brandy was born with this rare disease but was not diagnosed until she was almost an adult and many women are not diagnosed until they start trying to get pregnant. EDS is a painful, life-disrupting illness where many of the body's tissues do not grow correctly resulting in very loose joints, ligaments, organ failure, bruising, and loss of motor function.
Their doctor told them that if they went vegetarian or vegan they would die. Later in life, feeling they were on their way to an early death anyway, a PETA video inspired them to adopt a compassionate plant-based lifestyle. Surprisingly, rather than languishing or deteriorating, Brandy started to get better...MUCH better.
Today, Brandy loves to be outdoors and can easily crush a 7km hike on the weekends with her fabulous partner and furry companion.

Episode #54 - A Body Worth Defending with Ed Cohen
Today's guest is an extraordinary thought leader with a heart and spirit brimming with empathy and enthusiasm. Dr. Ed Cohen shares how his thoughts and philosophies around healing have evolved over his fifty years of living with Chrohn's Disease. He brings up an amazing point, that immunity was a word that first meant "free from" in the legal world. Then over time, the world of medicine and science labeled our internal defense mechanisms as the immune system. But if we are free from threats, as immunity implies, why must we have an entire immune defense system? This is a great question he poses and answers in this episode.
Dr. Ed Cohen is a Ph.D. in Modern Thought from Stanford and for the last three decades he has been an award-winning professor of Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality at Rutgers University. At thirteen, he was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease—a chronic, incurable condition that nearly killed him in his early twenties. At his diagnosis, his doctors told him that the best he could hope for would be periods of remission. Unfortunately, doctors never mentioned healing as a possibility.
In his book On Learning to Heal, Cohen draws on fifty years of living with Crohn’s to consider how Western medicine’s turn from an “art of healing” toward a “science of medicine” deeply affects both medical practitioners and their patients. He demonstrates that although medicine can now offer many seemingly miraculous therapies, medicine is not and has never been the only way to enhance healing. Exploring his own path to healing, he argues that learning to heal requires us to desire and value healing as a vital possibility. With this book, Cohen advocates reviving healing’s role for all those whose lives are touched by illness.

Episode #44 - The Highly Sensitive Man with William Allen
Our guest today helps men understand their gifts of sensitivity from a masculine perspective. He shares that men should see sensitivity as more than emotion, to look at this gift as being like a highly-tuned instrument that is taking accurate measurements of the environment around it. 20-30% of the population is highly sensitive and for great benefit to the human race, which he will also shed light on
William Allen is a first-time author with a writer’s heart and researcher’s mind. After getting a degree in Psychology with an eye on doing psychology research, he recalibrated for a career in Information Technology. He found himself in a thirty-year career as an Information Technology manager at Wells Fargo who enjoyed managing highly intelligent, often difficult staff, many of whom were highly sensitive. He was awarded a prestigious Corporate Management Excellence award for his empathetic management style.
He retired early from his corporate job to found his Hypno-coaching and neurofeedback brain training business, BrainPilots, in Bend, Oregon. While in Bend, he co-organized the area’s first Introvert/Highly Sensitive Person discussion group. In late 2016, he began his blog, The Sensitive Man, about his experiences, as a highly sensitive man. The blog became the genesis of his book, Confessions of a Sensitive Man. He feels that HSP males need to take their keen insights and intuition and make them public. He would like to shed more light on highly sensitive males and the much-needed role they need to take in our society.

Episode #43 - Hashimoto's, Horticulture and the Human Spirit with Justin McSweeney
Today's episode has a lot of content packed in with guest Justin McSweeney who hosts his own YouTube interview channel called Idea Cast. This series platforms persons from the social sciences, philosophy, the media arts as well as the musical arts. Justin seeks out conversations that revolve around meaning-making, sense-making, creative thinking, and examination of our potential and challenges.
Justin connected with me as he has Hashimoto's Disease, which is the same autoimmune disease I have, and wanted to share a bit of his experience with this. His diagnosis story is very interesting as well as how he tackled brain fog using his love of botany and horticulture as a source of mental exercise. However, this is closer to the end of the episode as Justin is very philosophical and a free thinker that touches on many topics that I know will be of benefit to you the listener.
In his words "I might identify as a philosophical hobbyist. I am interested in the philosophy of mind and ontology. At present, I enjoy process relational metaphysics and analytical idealism as curious systems to help decode ontological foundations. I am also interested in what I call the 'will to spirit'.

Episode #41 - Motivational Check with Terry Tucker
When Terry Tucker's name comes to mind, the word motivational pops up immediately. Not only has Terry reinvented himself on a professional and personal level many times over his life he has also had to fight for his life against a rare form of cancer called Acral Lentiginous Melanoma, and continues to do so today.
Terry shares in his bio, "One thing I learned during all my pain and discomfort is that you have two choices. You can succumb to the debilitating distress and misery, or you can learn to embrace it and use it to make you a stronger and more resilient human being. I chose the latter. Make no mistake, there were times I felt so poorly and was in so much agony that I prayed to die. Each day was a struggle to use my mind to override my body's apathy and distress. I realize pain and discomfort can beat you to your knees and keep you there if you let it. But I also came to appreciate that I could use my hurting and anguish to harden my mind and make me more resolute. I was no better at dealing with pain and discomfort than the next person. But every day, I found a way to survive, with the knowledge that I would need to do it again the following morning."
His driving passion is sharing what he has learned between his decade battle with cancer and his diverse professional background to encourage and support anyone his words touch to know that they are not alone, no matter what they are struggling against. Through this trial of fire, Terry has come to live by the Four Truths and Ten Values of Sustainable Excellence which he shares in this episode, on his website, and throughout his book Sustainable Excellence, Ten Principles to Leading Your Uncommon and Extraordinary Life.

Episode #41 - Alexa, Where is my Period? With Andi Munsie
Andi Munsie describes herself as a regular girl who figured out how to love the Game inside herself and live the life of her dreams by her definition; living an authentic, joyful, meaningful, and fulfilling life with her true love that flows.
In this episode Andi shares all about her Alexa Where is My Period 28-Day Challenge because for her "becoming conscious of the four phases of my Menstrual Cycle; Menstrual, Follicular, Ovulation, and Luteal has been the most powerful and healing way to reconnect to my body, my creativity, my power, my intuition, my soul, and reclaiming my Cycle meant finding female consciousness itself."
We talk about how menstrual cycles played a role in human understanding of past, present, and future prior to modern civilization, how our cycles are connected to the phases of the moon and the four seasons and how we can get use the understanding of our cycle to truly love ourselves.
