HTL 019: Social Media Addiction and How to Overcome It, with Johan Versteegh

Podcast
Social Media Addiction The age of social media is brilliant, advantageous, and incredibly fun. There are so many wonderful benefits because of it.  But there are also a few negatives and one of them is social media addiction. Addiction traditionally means a physical need for something, meaning there are physical side effects if you don’t get your “fix”. And yes, this can happen with social media. If you are beginning to realize that you find yourself needing to check in on your social media accounts, you fall asleep with your phone in your hand, you feel lonely or lost if you are away too long, it is affecting your productivity, or your friends or family are giving you hints that you aren’t really present when you are with them...you might…

HTL 016: The NO-Fear Guide to Basic Car Maintenance, with Kiran Gangarum and Jay Kgasago

Podcast
Today’s show is an important one. It is a topic that gave me a lot of anxiety when I was younger, my kids have fear about it now, and I think many people are a bit nervous about this, and that is basic car maintenance. Having a car is awesome. But there are a lot of responsibilities and expenses that come with it. I have talked about some of those in a few MOMINARS on my youtube channel: oil changes, tire pressure, smog check, registration. Pumping your own gas.  I suspect that some of the fear in dealing with these things is the potential expense. A warning light comes on and rather than deal with it, you kind of ignore it hoping it will go away or maybe it is…

HTL 015: How To Approach the Police: What to Do and Say, with Lt. Steve Riback, LVMPD

Podcast
How To Approach The Police Most people are law-abiding citizens and don't expect to have an encounter with the police. But sometimes you will find that you are in a situation where you have to interact with them.This podcast topic came about because a listener was pulled over once for a moving violation and she was a nervous wreck and didn't know what to do. Others chimed in that although they had never been pulled over, they also wanted to know what to do.That was a GREAT question and it led to even more questions about etiquette and proper protocol in a variety of situations.  I am grateful that Lt. Steve Riback of the LVMPD graciously accepted my invitation to answer these questions and more.He also talks about how being a…

HTL 013: FAT to Fit: A Talk About Fat, Fitness, and Food with Personal Trainers, Tim and Judy Avalos

Podcast
Fat To Fit This is a topic that I find really fun and so important. But it is something that most people of all ages do not consider or think about at all.  And that is how our body, our immune system, our health, our mental outlook, and our metabolism are affected by the food we eat! Most of us, nowadays, no longer eat for survival alone. Food is readily available. It is very social. But most food today is calorie-dense and we usually eat without thought. And we eat way more than we need! That, plus a more often-than-naught sedentary lifestyle, has led to some pretty significant health issues and excessive weight in much of our population. But it doesn’t have to be that way. You can go from…
