HTL 031: Weight loss through intuitive eating; the anti-diet approach, with David Orozco

Podcast

Today’s topic may be completely outside the box for some when it comes to how you approach the topic of food and its effect on your body and your mindset about it. My guest is David Orozco, the Host of the ONE SMALL BITE podcast. He is a registered dietician and nutritionist who describes himself as an anti-diet food therapist. Anti-diet. How does that sound to you? Intriguing? He and I are going to discuss some different ways to think about food and eating. For instance, have you ever considered food as medicine? Are you familiar with the term intuitive eating? Most people understand that food can be very social but have you ever acknowledged the emotional component of it? Many have a love-hate relationship with food, but in…

HTL 030: The NO-Fear Guide to Appliance Breakdowns, with Chad Phillipp

Podcast

If you chose to listen to this episode, the title may have grabbed your attention. For me, I like the NO FEAR part. I am a big fan of dispelling fear and we have fears about all kinds of stuff. I used to be really afraid of appliances breaking down. I was always suspicious and afraid that it was going to be a huge expense, and then there was I didn’t know who to call. But over the years I have learned a thing or two, mostly by trial and error, and I am happy to report that many times, whatever your problem is, you can often fix it yourself or it can be fixed pretty easily and not so costly. But it was stressful for me being in the…

Mominar 035: How To Fill Out W-4 and W-9 Forms

Mominars

You have heard of taxes. Well when you get a job, taxes are going to be withheld from every paycheck you earn. How much is taken out depends on you. You get to decide how much to withhold. And that is done when you fill out a W-4 form which your employer will give you when you are hired. If you are a freelancer or independent contractor you will often be asked for a W-9. These are tax forms. But don’t panic! In this Mominar, I am going to walk you through how to do this. Check out my YouTube channel! Like what you see? Subscribe to the Mominars! Want even more?

HTL 028: The Gift of Gratitude, with Pritesh Sankhe, Founder of the ‘Gratitude’ App.

Podcast

Gratitude is one of the tenets of my philosophy in life. Discovering the power of gratitude has been life-changing for me and if I could impart only one piece of advice for anyone it would be that. How did I get the founder of this remarkable app to be a guest on my show? Here is the backstory: A few years ago, I was at, probably, the lowest point of my life and I didn’t know how to get myself out. In my search for meaning and peace, I came across the exercise of keeping a gratitude list. Something resonated with me and it felt manageable so I started keeping a journal and would try to write all the good things that happened to me that day at night. What…

HTL 027: Manifestation and Visualization to Re-Imagine Your Life, with Julie DeLucca-Collins

Podcast

Manifestation and Visualization Today we are going to talk about RE-IMAGINING YOUR LIFE. How do you do that? Well, it is fun actually. You get to daydream. And imaging. And visualize. Wait, you may say. Isn’t that frivolous? Or lazy? Or irresponsible. Or. ..or... or… No. It absolutely is not. Dreaming and visualizing is actually how you begin to create your future reality. It is the planting of the seed. As Henry David Thoreau so eloquently described it: GO CONFIDENTLY IN THE DIRECTION OF YOUR DREAMS. LIVE THE LIFE YOU’VE IMAGINED. This happens to be the motto of today’s guest, Julie Delucca Collins. She is a self-proclaimed “dreamer” and proud of it! Oh, and she is a CEO, and a podcast host, and a coach. You are going to love…

HTL 025: How To Listen To Your Intuition, with Miinkay Yu

Podcast

Listen To Your Intuition At the start of this year, I had not even considered doing a podcast. When it was suggested to me, I had no idea how to even go about starting one. But something sparked. And I kept seeing things about it. I heard people talking about it. It was showing up on my radar, and then it dawned on me that these might be signs. So I tuned into my intuition and followed where it led. And here I am. And how absolutely perfect that this episode is about how to hear that inner voice, how to recognize what it is saying to you. How to focus-on, rather than dismiss, that guidance. I am joined today by Miinkay Yu who is a career coach and helps people define…
