Divorce and bad break-up can leave you reeling for days, months or even years. My guest is Tonya Carter, a marriage and relationship exit strategist, author and podcast host. We discuss Tonya's own experience with divorce nearly 10 years ago, and how she is now helping women overcome baggage connected to a divorce or break-up.

Since being called to do this work, Tonya's clients have excelled in their personal and professional lives. From financial increases, debt reduction, co-parenting consciously, building healthier relationships, managing conflict intelligently, discovering their natural gifts/talents, prioritizing their health and needs, and cultivating stronger bonds with their children, parents, friends and family.

What, if anything, would make you pack your bags and move to another country? You wouldn’t be alone – the State Department estimates that 9 million US citizens live abroad.
On this episode, my guest, Zarah Charm @zarahcharm has spent the last few years living internationally, most recently Chiang Mai, Thailand.
Prior to taking the leap, she owned a successful natural hair salon in Baltimore, and sold it all to pursue something deeper.
About My Guest:
Zarah Charm is a natural hair stylist and salon owner who sold it all to move abroad and to better understand the body-mind connection. Now as a world-traveler and NLP Practitioner, she helps others heal while still being able to share her passion for hair and all things beauty.

If skincare hasn't been a priority for you, maybe it's time to reprioritize. Having a consistent, healthy skincare routine in your 40s can set you up for great skin in the decades to come.
My guest this week is Carolyn Cyprian, a licensed esthetician and medspa owner. We discuss how to take care of your skin as your body is undergoing hormonal changes (hello perimenopause).
About My Guest
Carolyn did not let the struggles of being a teenage mother sway her determination for success – she always knew God had a bigger plan for her life. Years later, while at a nail salon, a stranger planted a seed that allowed her to envision herself in a different career. The woman presumed Carolyn was an esthetician, when in fact, she didn’t know what an esthetician was. This set her on a path to learn more.
Today, Carolyn is a licensed esthetician of 16 years, owner of Carolyn Skincare Medspa in Central Florida and has curated her skincare line Skin Salvation by Carolyn. Additionally, she has an online course “The Aesthetics Tool” to teach other professionals how to develop and grow their business.

After learning about the child and adolescent mental health crisis in the US, I wanted to talk to a clinical expert to learn more and better equip myself with tools for my own children. The conversation is enlightening and helpful. This conversation with Dr. Jari @doctor.jari gave me hope.

She earned her Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from Miami University (OH) and has worked in community mental health clinics, hospitals, and schools. Her clinical expertise is focused on child and adolescent mental health, trauma informed care, immigrant mental health, and acculturation stress.
