174 Sharon Valenti - Have the kind of Relationships YOU’VE always wanted to have
Thursday Aug 05, 2021
Thursday Aug 05, 2021
Sharon is passionate about helping those who are disillusioned with life & relationships find peace of mind again. She shows people how to begin looking forward to each day through an easy process of finding and releasing unconscious beliefs. It sounds simple and it is, once you get the hang of it. She only works with people who are sick and tired of being sick and tired and are ready to make a radical change.
In Sharon's words:
Years of physical, emotional, mental, sexual abuse, alcoholic parents, death of my son, showed me everything I didn’t want in life. In my mid-40’s I began learning what was at the root of all of my problems - it was me! I began a journey of conditioning myself to a better life. I learned a simple way to move beyond all of the past into a life of peaceful thoughts. Now I’m in love with life and living a life I love.
3 top tips for my audience:
1. Drop your expectations
2. Understand what’s beneath your anger
3. ALWAYS remember everyone is doing the best they can in any given moment, including yourself

I talked with Theresa Carpenter, an active duty U.S. Navy Lieutenant Commander on how she let addictions control her life for decades, but in her 40s decided to expect more out of life by letting go of perfectionism and embracing her quirky, unapologetic self.
Theresa Carpenter is an active-duty Navy Lieutenant Commander where she has served for the past 25 years. Her passions include helping military women succeed and the professional development of the craft of public relations. As an introspective writer, she muses about the human experience for her blog, Theresa’s Tapestries. Tapping into her love of storytelling through the visual medium, she runs a YouTube channel with her husband where they share their experiences with saving money, DIY projects, traveling, and enjoying time together. Her latest endeavor is her podcast S.O.S (Stories of Service), which features ordinary people from all walks of life who show up in service to their communities. She lives in Norfolk, Virginia with her husband Harry and their Boxer dog Jayda, who also has her own social media presence on Instagram.
3 top tips for my audience:
1. Be yourself - nobody else has your unique skills, talents and personality
2. Addictions control you - don’t let anyone or anything define who you are
3. Surround yourself with a positive and loving tribe (even if you did not grow up with one)

Shannon - this girl is real, she will show herself to you, igniting that heart connection. You will relate, she is earthy, yet fiery and open to give you hope.
Shannon is a warrior, battling more than just one debilitating illness and currently healing from a double hip replacement and overcoming some unexpected complications. She pushes on one foot in front of the other. She is truly an inspiration to many. This girl has grit, she is not stopping because it feels too damn good to feel good, feels too damn good to love and to feel connected to others, to nature and to her Higher Power. Her passion is to share her story and inspire others to give themselves a chance to heal. Shannon will walk with you along the way.
In Shannon's words:
Our journey as a family along the bumpy road of addiction, mental illness and recovery.
My addiction allowed me to hide from my pain and struggles of feeling like a failure as a single mom until I hit my darkest place thinking my kids would be better off without me.
In this hopeless, despairing state something beyond me hit me, I finally surrendered and called out for help. That is when I learned that alcoholism is a disease, a family disease and it takes a team to recover as a family.
I have grit and passion to share my story, to impact other families, giving them hope that healing is possible for them too.
3 top tips for my audience:
1. ASK for help - You are not alone
2. Be totally Honest - Speak Your Truth
3. It is OK to be Human.

Tessa is a Christian transformational coach who helps women live an abundant life, heal from past hurts, and become fearless by using the power of their words and thoughts and understanding their true identity.
In Tessa's words:
You were created for a life of abundance in all areas of your life and you have already been given the key to it.

Understanding your identity and how to use your words and touch will unleash a power and purpose you can't even imagine right now! Get ready to transform.
3 top tips for my audience:
1. Understand you have a brain, you are not your brain.

In Emile's words:
Throughout my whole life, I had this little voice in my head that always told me I am not good enough or I can't do this. This made making changes in my life almost impossible, the more I tried to change the more I failed, I couldn't understand why can't make changes stick. Until I was in my early to mid 20's I discovered that if I want to make the changes stick, I have to change that little voice, with the help of mentors and coaches I found a way to change that little voice which changed everything else.
I grew up having extremely low self-esteem even though I had the most amazing parents, I always felt lonely in school and around my friends, I had this voice in my head that always told me no one liked me, they only felt sorry for me that is why they kept me around. When I was 24, I discovered where that little voice came from and how it controlled my life. When I changed it, my whole life changed, now I help other people overcome their little voice so they can become their best hero and do what they love.
3 top tips for my audience:
1. Become very conscious of your thoughts and phrases. (write them down)
2. Ask yourself what feeling did that thought triggered?
3. Work on changing your top 3 limiting thoughts and phrases.

Saturday Jul 24, 2021
Saturday Jul 24, 2021
Romina is a single, co-parenting mother to a 4-year-old adventure seeker. Her journey began some 5 months after the birth of her son, when her marriage ended and she found herself a single mother. The challenges and opportunities presented to her in the subsequent months and years gifted her clarity and growth, and led her to create her business, empowering women to share their soul stories and offer hope and inspiration to others. Romina believes in the healing power of words and our ability to heal ourselves and others through the process of writing and sharing our unique journeys.
Romina Cavagnola has a masters degree in publishing, as well as qualifications in project management, information systems and astronomy. She works with spiritual women in business to draw out and articulate the essence of their message.
Through her company, Alchemy of Alignment™ Publishing, Romina facilitates the writing and publishing of powerful stories. Her independent 1:1 and group book programs are designed to activate self-healing through the writing process.
Romina lives in Sydney with her son and can be found reading, going on "adventures" with her little man, looking at stars, and bursting into song at any given moment.
3 top tips for my audience:
1. Journalling can help you connect with your inner wisdom and your story
2. Challenges are only temporary and are opportunities for growth and alignment
3. Divorce doesn't always look like people expect...it can be done in "good" ways
