  • The Now of WhyMe and finding the light through the darkness with Rosalyn Khan
    Dec 21 2021
    Today’s guest is Rosalyn Khan of A message for tomorrow’s leaders. Rosalyn has written three books - Random acts of kindness are changing the world all about mastering the message with passion and purpose, Dogs and Roses reducing stress and anxiety in today’s troubled times which was born out of Rosalyn’s own experiences with depression, and a message from tomorrow’s leaders -  a collection of essays from individuals which started pre-COVID and evolved into something very different throughout the resulting year.Rosalyn and I had a chat a little while ago about this episode and with her background as a college professor and many speaking experiences including TedX stages, I was quite struck at how much WhyMe has been at the centre of her life up to now. Starting with growing up with scoliosis, she has learned to roll with the ups and downs. As she herself has talked about finding the light through the darkness, I wonder how much we sometimes need to know the darkness in order to recognise the power of illumination with light?Like many of you listening in, Rosalyn has lived with the ever changing landscape of a world which is evolving in front of our eyes whether we are ready for it or not. I had a feeling when she messaged me a few weeks ago that as her WhyMe moments have shifted, so too has her current focus and motivation, just like the book a message for tomorrow’s leaders. As a leader herself, I am keen to uncover some of the layers that make Rosalyn tick and why she devotes so much time and passion to helping others.I am particularly excited to discover where Rosalyn and my conversation will go today, and with the title being named “The NOW of WhyMe”, I welcome you to the WhyMe podcast. You can contact Rosalyn at her website. Do you know the difference between and dream and a goal? Spoiler alert! It's the movement! The action you take.

  • Without 'you' there is what? With Marie and Carry JustRockIt
    Dec 7 2021

    Today’s I have two guests, Marie Martin and Carry Howell of JustRockIt Coaching. Carry believes for him that being a strong man is being able to intentionally bring himself into a meditative state with a wide open heart and crying tears of joy. Marie explains that a boundary establishes what is you and what is another. They are about owning your inner space and knowing you have a choice and responsibility for your own boundaries, attitude and energy.

    I am excited to interview Marie and Carry today, as their individual stories will resonate with different people. I have titled this episode Without you there is…? There are multiple reasons for this which we will explore during his session. Topics such as – Defining who is you? - what is home and how when you remove the ‘you’ (whatever that may be, a home, a career, a person, an identity) then what? You can contact Marie on Instagram and Carry on Facebook.

  • Learning to lift your head up again after grief of losing a child to suicide with Charlene Fanstone
    Nov 23 2021

    Charlene Fanstone, a photographer, mother and author of two blogs, ‘Healthy Living with Charlene’ and ‘Lift Your Head Again’. Charlene became a stepmum to her three children and wanting to be an involved parent at 23 years of age for her meant a fast track to growing up. Charlene’s experienced many WhyMe moments through her shared experiences with her family. She became an advocate for father’s rights through their battle to give the children a safe and secure home through the court system. As each of the children were slowly granted these rights, Charlene and her husband helped the kids through building love and fostering those relationships and connections. Through all the ways kids often love to express themselves and enjoy participating in life, there was much hockey, dance, soccer and other pursuits finally being explored and enjoyed for what became a very happy family unit. That was until a knock on the door that changed everything.

    Charlene discusses the grief of losing her son unexpectedly to suicide, miles away, and coming to terms with the different ways we all grieve and have to learn to lift our head up again.

    You can contact Charlene on  Facebook and Healthy Living Facebook. and Instagram
