Don't keep checking up on others
Don't wallow in self-pity
Don't make threats you don't intend to carry out
Don't be over-protective
Don't be a doormat
Do forgive
Do be humble
Do take it easy, tension is harmful
Do play, find recreation and hobbies
Do keep trying whenever you fail
Do learn the facts about your problem
Do attend meetings/social gatherings
Do pray
The 2 "P"s that may be killing your Peace

Take action... even when it scares you (Episode 58)
On The Playful Life today, Daniel Wilgenbusch of Vivall Group joins us to talk about taking action, even when it might scare you. How to put your pride aside and go after what you really want.
Daniel Wilgenbusch has spent the last decade operating with an obsession for developing people — what he calls “Building Champions.” It all began with his first business that he dropped out of college to scale and grow. That introduction to entrepreneurship and later successes ultimately set the stage for his present partnership as a Strategist with the founder of Vīvall Group — a consulting agency focused on bridging the gap between vision and reality for leaders and organizations. He also currently runs an online health & wellness brand and is a featured teacher and speaker for organizations and events across the country.

Putting Hunger Out of Business with Kevin Harper of Food On The Move
Kevin Harper joins me on the Playful Life and I honestly feel this is one of the best discussions I've had about playfulness. He is the President and CEO of Food On The Move in Tulsa, OK. The organization was founded by local Tulsa artist Taylor Hanson of the band Hanson. Food On The Move is an innovative mobile food initiative that has been working to end food deserts since 2014 through mobile food events and a long-term strategy to foster the return of permanent grocery stores and healthy food systems. The monthly program events bring together a diverse group of mobile partners in non-profit, for-profit, and government to host ongoing pay-as-you-can events that offer fresh produce, prepared meals, and access to community and health resources.
Kevin helps FOTM focused on ending food insecurity one community at a time through food distribution, educational programs, workforce development, health assessments, and innovative solutions. He shares about his life's journey from being a pastor, to serving the marginalized in Africa, to landing in middle America.
His story and his vision are sure to inspire you to take action in your own community. I guarantee you will walk away from this podcast with motivation, hope and a new perspective on what it means to live The Playful Life.

Life Skills for Smoother Parenting with Rachel Kurian
Whether you are parent, a teacher, an auntie like me.... or someone who is in any kind of interpersonal relationship - pretty much everyone - you can benefit from the skills Rachel Kurian talks about in this episode!
I learned a lot about to evaluating me feelings, responding with respect and communicating consequences instead of punishment.
Rachel is a parenting coach. She works with families of little ones on a process for firm but kind parenting in all situations. Rachel takes her clients through a process to have strategies and a plan for when things come up. You can move away from being stressed and overwhelmed to being more connected with your kids and love parenting again.
The practical problem Rachel solves is to provide support and guidance for parents to help them be confident, consistent and love parenting again.
The emotional problem is to help them improve the quality of life for themselves and their families, better relationships, and kids who are able to navigate this world and make it better when they're tomorrow's leaders.

My experience getting the Covid Vaccine.
This is not a PSA for or against the Covid vaccine... and duh, I'm totally not a scientist, doctor or nurse... so I'm not giving any medical advice.
I simply wanted to share my experience with receiving the first Covid vaccine injection today in hopes that maybe I could help someone else prepare mentally for what to expect. I understand that many people, myself included, can have anxiety about shots, medical facilities or even just dealing with leaving the house (and wearing something other than yoga pants... although you could totally wear yoga pants to get your vaccine).

The epidemic hiding in your pantry.
Ever wonder the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes? Why is diabetes a disease you don't want to develop? Can you prevent diabetes? What are some preventive measures you can do today to lower your risk and prevent diabetes in yourself and future generations? Diabetes has steadily grown as one of the most prevalent diseases in America. Nearly 9% of Americans have been diagnosed with diabetes, either Type 1 or Type 2. But what about Type 3 Diabetes? Otherwise known as insulin resistance or prediabetes, many more Americans, almost 30%, are at risk. What's most shocking about this epidemic? You hold the key to prevention and possibly even the cure.
Judy Gilman, NP and Certified Diabetes Educator, has dedicated most of her professional career as a nurse practitioner and now her retirement to providing education about diabetes, it's risks, complications, prevention and treatment. I am very honored to have her on the podcast to educate listeners about this rapidly growing epidemic.
