Tracey Lewis Stoeckel is an online course consultant and coach.  She is a single Mom to two kids (now teens) plus a couple of rescue dogs and a menagerie of other critters.  She has a love for sarcasm, marketing, cheese, and her hometown baseball team. After years as a serial entrepreneur, and while working as a college instructor, Tracey earned her master’s degree in education.  It was around that time that her loves for business and education merged as she started creating online learning for college students and then later for a hospital-based ambulance service. When the best boss she ever had announced her early retirement, Tracey made the scary move to pursue course-building for small businesses full-time instead of crying in her office on a daily basis.  A decision she questions only occasionally. Tracey shares her education and business knowledge on her Tracey Teaches Facebook page as well as on her website at www.traceyteaches.biz.  In her “free time” Tracey is working on a series of online courses to help single moms get started in a business of their own, and she plans to also launch a new podcast in late 2019.  She also enjoys gardening, volleyball, and live music.

Tana and I met over 25 years ago, at a soccer field where our sons were practicing.  I was new in town and she was friendly.  When we did the whole "What do you do?" routine, I discovered she was a hair dresser and it was a match made in heaven.  In the past 25+ years, no one else has touched my hair (except me when I'm a little impatient - ha!). She's a genius with the scissors and as down home 'good people' as they come. She embodies that Southern Belle attitude with a bit of sass thrown in and when you think about it like that, you know why we're such good friends! Connect with Tana: Facebook

Lizzy's mission includes beautifully hand lettering words of power and encouragement, and helping women see themselves as always in a process of becoming... She creates retreats that bring your soul comfort, help you find your true self and allows you to continue living your best life.   I loved chatting with her, and I know you'll love listening.  More about Lizzy: Lizzy Russinko is a wildly passionate, misfit-loving, mama & artist - and an inimitable hugger.  After 12 years in higher education, she left her career to parent her newborn daughter full-time, with dreams of emerging as a multi-passionate entrepreneur. Over the last 7 years she has found ways to put all of her amazing higher ed skills to use, as a mama (of course!) and a business owner.  This (Un)Scripted Life is her hand lettering studio and retreat series with a focus on sharing Lizzy’s own personal philosophy of flipping the finger to the rules and stomping out your own beautiful path. Retreat Roadmap is an extension of that work, a consulting business that allows her to help other heartcentered, socially-conscious entrepreneurs plan soulful, purpose-driven retreats & gatherings. Everything Lizzy does goes back to human connection (both to ourselves & others) and being brave enough to start and sustain conversations that really matter.

This week, I'm chatting with my 12 year and I learned a lot about her...which seems crazy, because...HELLO ~ we live in the same house and breathe the same air and we're together just about 24/7. But when we started chatting about all kinds of different things, and we didn't have anything else to distract us, the conversation flowed.  And THAT's something I'm going to work harder to continue! I think you'll love this one, I know I did!

Jessica Perkins is the founder, and creative genius behind the Mama May I Shop and The Playfull Way.  Jessica believes Play IS the important work. "Play is innate in childhood and then we kind of lose our ability to play as we age, and replace it with efficiency and lists, and boxes checked off. It’s hard to get deep into play when we, as grownups, are so tapped out that our thoughts and agendas get in the way of our peace and presence." I so enjoyed chatting with Jessica about how differently we interrupt even the word "Play" itself but how it can build connection and help our own self care, and builds the culture of connection at home. Jessica is launching a digital version of her table talk connection cards, and has a gift for you!

Lisa Zawrotny created Positively Productive Systems after a deeply overwhelming time in her life juggling multiple roles as a caregiver for her Mom (who had Alzheimer’s) as well as wife, mother (to kids & cats) and as a business owner. After being trapped in her own clutter and chaos, she took back her health and sanity through a combination of renewed self-care, personal development, and customized organizing and productivity approaches. The process was so healing for her and her family, she knew immediately she wanted to guide others in the same way. As a holistic productivity coach certified in time management and life coaching, Lisa helps chronically overwhelmed clients find success through simplicity by decluttering their lives (inside & out) and designing systems and habits that honor their personalities and values.
