Finding Life After Emergency Brain Surgery: Daniel MacQueen

Daniel MacQueen is a motivational speaker and podcast host from Vancouver.  He lived in London, England in 2014 when he was diagnosed with a non-cancerous cyst that required urgent brain surgery.  Daniel was in a coma for four weeks and had to learn how to walk, talk, and smile again.   He is sharing his journey of how he successfully navigated finding the motivation when he was learning to talk again, how difficult the transition was when returning home after several months in the hospital, and inspiring others who may be facing a similar challenge.   Daniel’s podcast, “Play Loose, Look Tight” can be found on your favorite podcast app.   He’s moving forward with intention and purpose helping change the way people view their setbacks.   Daniel has found there’s nothing like a brain hemorrhage to refocus the mind.   Learn more about Daniel on his website: Macqueendan.com Guest Bio: At 28, Dan was leading a healthy, active life. After an optometrist appointment to identify the cause of his persistent headaches was cut short, he was handed a sealed envelope and told to go directly to the hospital. What followed, was emergency brain surgery. On June 21, 2014, Dan's reality was shattered by a devastating brain hemorrhage. With no map to guide him on the grueling path to recovery, Dan had to rely on his grit, perseverance, and resilience to relearn everything he once knew: how to walk, talk and even smile.   Dan has survived two emergency brain surgeries, weeks in a coma, and months in a rehab hospital. What he found out along the way might surprise you: there is nothing like a brain injury to refocus the mind! Driven by a positive mindset, Dan battled through excruciating rehab exercises to rebuild his life and return to a job he loved.   He’s grateful for the doctors who saved him and the friends and family who supported him. Now he wants to pay it forward. The tools Dan used to build back his life can be used by anyone facing challenges. He will reveal strategies to help you or your team be #BetterThanYesterday and achieve your goals, one step at a time. His action-oriented life hacks will help you tackle anything you face.   Through his talks, Dan has inspired groups at the @NHS London Wolfsen rehabilitation centre, @Headway - West London, a Brain injury association, @Hootsuite, a social media management company and @Spendesk a Fintech SaaS company based in London. His audiences were moved and uplifted by Dan's story and ready to use his practical approaches to triumph over adversity.    Join Dan to learn how changing your perspective can activate your resilience. ___________________ Subscribe to this podcast and download your favorite episodes to listen to later: Apple  Spotify  RSS Feed  ___________________   ⚕️ Are you a woman healthcare professional who is struggling to juggle everything in your personal and professional life?   💯 I understand!

Addressing the Fears and Misconceptions Around Menopause: Jeanne Andrus

Jeanne Andrus is a menopause and life coach who started helping women navigate their menopause journeys after her own journey to health and happiness.   She is also a certified Personal Trainer, Health Coach, and Behavioral Change Specialist through the American Council on Exercise, as well as the author of 5 books on menopause, including "I Just Want to Be ME Again!" (now in its 2nd edition) and "Where is My Wife and What Have You Done with Her? A Spouse's Guide to Her Menopause".   Jeanne is on a mission to help remove the taboo of menopause, that the idea of women who are past menopause are invisible, or over the hill, or all washed up.  She often shares the story of how this negative perception of postmenopause is inculcated in us from an early age, and why this is such a wrong perception of the amazing opportunity which menopause opens up for women.   Learn more about Jeanne on her website: menopausematterspodcast.com Guest Bio: Jeanne Andrus spent the first 48 years of her life doing everything the "right way." You know, good grades, college, marriage, career, baby... all the things.    Then at age 48, perimenopause clobbered her. But her symptoms weren't changing periods and hot flashes. Depression, anger, and low libido took her out of the life she'd built for herself.   Determined not to let this change destroy her, she began a 4-year journey to health, happiness, and a new purpose in life. She lost 80 pounds, moved from New England to New Orleans, and quit her corporate job to help other women struggling with menopause symptoms and changes ditch their symptoms and delight in life again.   Wanting to understand how and why menopause affects women so completely, Jeanne spends hours down the rabbit holes of the internet, chasing wisps of information about the physical, emotional, mental, and social aspects of “The Change.”   She blends her own experience, the results of her research, and her training in traditional exercise and nutrition with a myriad of holistic approaches including Reiki energy healing and yogic breathwork to create a unique coaching experience she calls Menopause Mastery Coaching.   In addition to her coaching, Jeanne is the author of five international best sellers on menopause, including “I Just want to Be ME Again!” (now in its second edition) and her book aimed towards men trying to understand how menopause is affecting someone they love – “Where is My Wife and What Have You Done with Her?”   When not speaking, writing, and coaching about menopause, she loves hanging out in New Orleans, listening to live music or riding in Mardi Gras parades, or traveling the US with her husband and dog.   ___________________ Subscribe to this podcast and download your favorite episodes to listen to later: Apple - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fearless-freedom-with-dr-g/id1445500940?ls=1 Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/7KbGdl7ZH9FiclDDRjdi52?si=D4YsfvS_S7KcvTSyYIztJA RSS Feed - http://feeds.libsyn.com/143690/rss ___________________   ⚕️ Are you a woman healthcare professional who is struggling to juggle everything in your personal and professional life?   💯 I understand!

The Missing Element in Practicing Gratitude: Michael Chu

Michael Chu founded and operates Champion Development, where he helps people adjust their physical and emotional health while also growing their businesses. He supports health-related professionals in successfully moving to an online business model.   Michael practiced gratitude for many years, as a lot of people do.  He found that the error that he made and is most commonly made by others, is that in the practice of gratitude, one must actually feel grateful.  Without the feeling of appreciation, it is just the practice of going through the motions and isn’t authentic.   Growing up, Michael had many limiting beliefs and philosophies that he adopted but weren’t within his integrity.  He found that the way to heal was to move away from his hometown, the environment in which these limiting beliefs were created, so he could find healing.   Learn more about Michael and the services that he offers: www.champdev.com/free for 3 free lessons for coaches with a business.   Or find him on Instagram: @championdevelopment Guest Bio: Michael Chu is one of the best-kept secrets in the coaching industry. His  signature online programs for Health & Fitness Professionals revolutionize the lives of thousands of students worldwide with his groundbreaking LTV Method,   When he’s not preparing to compete in his next Martial Arts Championship, Michael is leading his Health & Wellness Academy and Champion Development Coaching Company teams to new levels of success with the thing he has become known for - creating scalable and predictable client relationships that last for years, not months.   He’s studied and competed in Martial Arts for over 30 years, trains in Karate, Jiu Jitsu & Muay Thai, and has won 14 National Championship Medals. And he’s dedicated to consistently becoming a better leader and spends a lot of his time masterminding with some of the leading minds on leadership and business development.   As the CEO of five 7 figure businesses he regularly brings his down-to-earth lessons on entrepreneurship to his online community and email list that reaches over 50,000 people.   This proud #girldad loves his two daughters and celebrates their every moment with his fiancee Kayla - the love of his life. They’ve made their home in Austin, Texas and he loves spending time out on the water any chance he gets.   ___________________ Subscribe to this podcast and download your favorite episodes to listen to later: Apple  Spotify RSS Feed  ___________________   ⚕️ Are you a woman healthcare professional who is struggling to juggle everything in your personal and professional life?   💯 I understand!
