Tune In: Radio for Your Mind, Body & Soul

"Don't let the name fool you: This is for men, too." So says our returning guest DeNeen Attard, Leadership Strategist of Attard Leadership Academy, author of the newly-released book, Women Who Lead. The material is also part of a micro-course focused on customer experiences for women in business & sales ... that is also really relevant to all who work with (or for) these women. What is authenticity? DeNeen shares that it starts with mindset. And the developmental "growth mindset" really is a soft skill that can be learned. Key points from the conversation: #trust • #RelationshipBuilding • "managing up" • #confidence • #perfection can make us stagnant Tune in! || Connect with DeNeen: deneen@deneenattard.com … order the book from Amazon … or connect on LinkedIn by searching for Attard Leadership Academy. || Support the show: http://www.WVLP.org or http://Facebook.Com/tuneinmindfulradio || Learn more about your host: https://snipfeed.co/kealahparkinson

Did you know that dads cry, too? Well, even if it's not new information, it can still sometimes be controversial. This week's show guest J.D. Murgolo is a content creator who makes music, writes multiple Substack newsletters & hosts more than one podcast to bring insight out to the world.

My top 3 faves: 1. Know who you are. 2. Listening is connection. 3. Setting boundaries (especially around time) is a "necessary selfishness."

This week was Spring Break across a good part of the U.S. With the milestone of #easterweekend, as well, our show takes a mindful moment to contemplate the education system from a particular perspective: that of the elementary school principal. Our conversation with Andy Brown includes the fruitful reminder that we are often #learningagain those early life lessons: • how to say no (without necessarily using the word no) • how to tolerate guilt (by remembering the pros vs. cons) • when to vent, whom to trust, how to adapt if we get it wrong ... #socialemotionallearning #education #SpeakYourTruth || Connect with our guest on LinkedIN where you can also subscribe to his newsletter, I Read Somewhere Once, recommending books on leadership, mental acuity & mindfulness: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/i-read-somewhere-once-6956974823621238784 || Support the show: http://www.WVLP.org or http://Facebook.Com/tuneinmindfulradio || Learn more about your host: https://snipfeed.co/kealahparkinson

Since 2016, Jeni McIntosh- Elkins & Teresa Bitner have been posting every two weeks at their blog site TornInHalf.com — a place where early widows can read along & share some of their own journeys through the shock, surprise, heartache & growth explicit to unexpected loss of a spouse. The lessons they've learned along the way are now available in 2 books: • Torn in Half: The First Days (that serves as a guidepost in the early days of grieving) • Torn in Half: My Journey as a Widow (this newly-released journal serves as a sort of workbook for processing grief through time) Both Jeni & Teresa visited Tune In: Radio for Mind, Body & Soul to share their personal stories, their journeys together & apart, as well as some hard-learned gems of wisdom that can help many of us grow. While there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there can be better, more helpful ways to share our sympathy or empathy with others; listen this weekend to hear why & how some expressions of compassion after another's loss can be golden nuggets ... or chunks of coal. #griefrecovery #griefjourney #griefsupport #empathy #sympathy #feelandheal || Buy your book copies: My Journey as a Widow: A Widow's First Journal https://a.co/d/awtJqwR or The First Days: Coping with Life After Loss https://a.co/d/cWTOkrM … Connect directly with Jeni at https://www.fetchhappiness.com or Teresa at https://www.boldfulfilledlifecoach.com … || Support the show: http://www.WVLP.org or http://Facebook.Com/tuneinmindfulradio || Learn more about your host: https://snipfeed.co/kealahparkinson

Balance is not what we think it is. That's what Tune In: Radio for Mind, Body & Soul host Kealah Parkinson-KiKi Productions learned in conversation with this week's guest Johanna Smith from Harmonious Balance. With a degree in engineering & a Masters in counseling, Johanna Smith balances her logical, strategical thinking with empathy & compassion to bridge true understanding of what makes humans tick. She asks curious questions—like, "Why is it that people can't do the right thing?" when they make certain choices? And she finds insightful, comprehensive answers (like, "It's so hard for people to do the right thing when they are feeling short-changed") that help us connect to each other with deeper understanding. In our on-air convo, you'll hear: - The 4 energy valances that Johanna encourages others to measure for input-output balance to achieve what she calls harmony (physical, mental, emotional & spiritual)—& the cues we get from our bodies & lives that show when we are out of balance & need to reconfigure - Her 3C Formula for filtering these measurements throughout your life - A key source for many of her findings - Why she calls mediation a focus strategy (& how you can, too!) … || Learn more about our guest at her website http://harmoniousbalanceJS.com & read her work on Substack https://harmoniousbalance.Substack.com || Support the show: http://www.WVLP.org or http://Facebook.Com/tuneinmindfulradio || Learn more about your host: https://snipfeed.co/kealahparkinson

What do you promise yourself? If it’s “to talk health, happiness & prosperity to every person you meet,” you may be an Optimist! Being a capital-O Optimist means more than just having an optimistic outlook. It means meeting with other like-minded optimists (of both lowercase & capital Os) on a regular basis. It means paying dues, metaphorically & literally. It means providing higher ed scholarships to communities & students in need; raising funds & connecting people to resources; identifying under-served populations & finding ways to meet their needs, whether through toy/coat drives, golf outings & lessons or essay contests. It means “to be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.” And first & foremost, it means “to be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.” As promised, Sandy Doyle returns to Tune In to tell us this & more. #speakyourtruth #tuneinmindfulradio #optimism #optimistday2024 #randomactsofkindness #themoreyougivethemoreyouget || Support the show: http://www.WVLP.org or http://Facebook.Com/tuneinmindfulradio || Learn more about your host: https://snipfeed.co/kealahparkinson

What's something you look back on without regret? You may be surprised to learn that, for grant management consultant Bushra Rehman, one thing she does NOT regret is her decision to be decisive. In our conversation today, she tells a poignant story (that many listeners can relate to): coming home from a long day at work; having a million more important decisions to make after a day of making important decisions; just wanting to turn off her head & not think. But instead, she gave herself the gift of decision-making—with no regrets. "At that time, when I made that decision," she says she decided to tell herself, "that was the best decision I could have made—whether it turned out poorly; whether it turned out well."
