Trail Angels

By: Annette & Mark Anderson
  • Summary

  • Annette and Mark Anderson have found that the journeys of life can take unexpected detours and turns. How we react to what life throws at us is a conscious choice. While we can’t always control what happens to or around us, we can control the path we choose to follow. Trail Angels is a reminder that others have traveled the sometimes rocky trail of life before, and that we don’t need to travel that lonely trail alone. Each of us has experienced trail angels in our lives. They are those who have provided direction and encouragement during times of weakness, tragedy, and confusion. Our goal is to Inspire, Grow, and Connect. Annette & Mark and their guests all have an incredible personal story to share. They in turn become Trail Angels to our audience as they learn from other's experiences. We grow by gaining clarity while accepting that life’s less than perfect moments can be defining moments of learning. Personal and transformative growth should be a collaborative effort that comes from a village of those, not only those looking for hope but those who are willing to offer hope. We can all find joy in life’s journey. Our journeys are often difficult, sometimes unbelievable, but always fulfilling. Join our podcasts as we experience the journey of a lifetime.

  • Transforming the Impossible Into the "I'm Possible"
    Aug 5 2021

    Mark and Annette have an inspiring conversation with Meridith Alexandar. Meridith is a best-selling author, powerhouse mompreneur, and top female motivational speaker who has become known for inspiring high-level professionals and entrepreneurs to venture beyond the place where their beliefs stop them -- all thanks to a plummeting boulder that changed her "old normal" into the destiny that she embraces today.

    Meridith challenges you to explore the boundaries of endless possibilities, positive expectations, and deliberate creation.

    With the remarkable life and death challenges that were laid firmly at her feet, she learned that it's these tiny individual seeds of Greatness that live waiting to be cultivated within our own minds. Then, as we master our own mindset and discover the real beauty within our own story, we become free to empower others and to go on to create "impossible" things.

    Annette, Mark & Meridith have experienced "impossible" boulders that have turned our ordinary lives into epic ones. 

    In this conversation, we focus on transforming the impossible into the “I’m Possible” and how ordinary people are capable of achieving EPIC things that seem totally “unrealistic” when they know how to fuse their inner game with the outer game.

    In fact, we believe that it's thanks to these "impossible" boulders that our ordinary lives have become epic lives and that your "impossible" boulders can have that same effect on you.

    Meridith's daughter Schuyler survived the “unsurvivable,” and she became her 24/7 caregiver. 

    We discuss parts of the journey and some real tools/insights that will help you obliterate your blind spot thinking and self-doubt so you can start unleashing the more epic version of yourself regardless of the circumstances.

    Meridith would love to offer you the chance to hop onto a 20-minute UNLEASH THE EPIC YOU strategy call with her to see where you might be getting in your own way. bit.ly/GOEPICNOW

  • Don't Judge A Book By It's Colors / Beyond Stereotypes
    Jul 23 2021

    American professional wrestler, better known by his shortened name Will Kaye or his ring name, Brimstone is the guest of this episode of Trail Angels, powered by Cairn the Load.  Instead of spending time in the ring Brim can be found in schools speaking to the students as an anti-bullying advocate. Our guest, Brim, shares his compelling story of how he was an outsider. The only white Jewish kid in the neighborhood.  At first glance, Brim's looks might scare you, but if you get to know him, you will see that he has much wisdom to offer. This is a classic example of not judging a book by its cover. Brimstone is a renowned speaker against bullying and suicide.

  • Adversity & Peak Performance
    Jul 16 2021

    The topic of overcoming adversity has come up a lot in recent years, with people looking for ways to help themselves or their children better deal with challenges. It's often said that we grow from overcoming our adversities, but what does that really mean? The truth is, it means different things for everyone. In this episode, we'll show you some of the most common obstacles people face and give you tips on how to use them as opportunities for personal growth instead of dwelling on them as sources of pain. 
     
     What's more important than understanding adversity is understanding what your authentic self looks like--the parts of yourself that are true and real no matter

    In this episode, we have a delightful conversation with guest Dr. Jessica Houston. 

     Dr. Houston is a professor at Purdue University and has unveiled what peak performance looks like and what you need to do to get there to thousands of individuals now living a life of happiness.  In this episode 

    Dr. Jessica shares some key points to overcoming adversity, being successful, and making our own happiness.

    1) You make your own happiness: It's not about what happens to us; it's how we react to it. Happiness is a decision no matter what situation you're in!

    2) Being vulnerable is key to success: We should never be afraid of being authentic and showing who we really are. People can relate better with an honest person rather than hiding behind their masks or trying too hard to impress them. 

    3) Education opens doors for opportunity: There is always something new around the corner, and education gives us
