691 | Iran Unveiled: Empowering Stories from a Fearless Journalist - Interview - Afarin Bellisario
I grew up in a family with its feet in the past and its head in the future. My grandmothers were taught rudimentary reading and writing at home, but my father and uncles were university graduates and part of Iran's emerging technocratic elite. I've come a very long way even from that: whereas one of my great grandfathers had 25 wives and concubines, I have a PhD from MIT. I am curious: fascinated as much by technology as by the human experience. I started writing for Iranian magazines and journals (including the prestigious weekly Ferdousi) at the age of 14. As a journalist, I became acutely aware of the chasm developing between the traditionalists living in south Tehran and the modernists living in North Tehran. My grandparents lived in South Tehran. I lived with my family in North Tehran. I knew both sides.

687 | Surviving Human Trafficking: Story of Resilience & Empowerment - Interview - Amanda Blackwood
I'm a survivor of human trafficking. I didn't tell anyone for such a long time. It was my scary little secret. It would stay that way, I thought. In 2019 the man who had trafficked me made me famous on a pornography sight by sharing rape videos and photos, and linked them all to my social media pages. I reached out to an anti-trafficking organization here in Colorado who paired me with legal services to assist in having the videos taken down, but I made the mistake one day of thinking I was alone in the office. My boss had been only 100 yards away and could overhear my conversation with my lawyer and never made a sound - until the call ended. When the call ended and I heard him moving around, I knew he had been listening. He knew I was a survivor of trafficking. Less than a month later I was fired. It was the week before Thanksgiving, four months before the pandemic. It was one of the best things that could have happened to me. I'm now a full time author and public speaker. In…

675 | Secrets Revealed by a Cat Whisperer - Interview - Sylvie Sterling
My name is Sylvie, and I am a cat whisperer, author, starseed, intuitive healer, spiritual teacher & ascension guide. Cats were my first love and accompanied me throughout my life. But it took me many years to realize that my mission in this life is to be an ambassador for felines and to give them a voice. My first professional career took me into the glamouros entertainment industry and I really loved my executive job... But I couldn't shake that gnawing feeling that I was here to do something more meaningful in life. The energetic shift in 2012 started me on my quest to find my true calling. I realized my purpose was so simple and clear that I had almost overlooked it: I was meant to be a bridge between cats and people. This epiphany changed everything, and my life was never the same. Following my purpose became more than a new career. Being a cat whisperer became my very nature. Support our podcast show by: https://www.positivetalkradio.net/support/ https://kmmedia.pro/o…

669 | Serenity Unveiled: Embark on a Journey of Meditation - Interview - Allison Liss
If you think you think then you are somewhat mistaken. Your thoughts mostly come from other sources, such as things you have read or were told. Your thoughts and opinions are assigned to you and then we passed along to others. These are the thoughts that are not from your OWN source and therefore, are not yours. This is unfortunate since your organic thoughts are clear. They are more of a knowing. They are your roadmap, your internal compass that provides you the peace you are longing for. In today’s climate it is all but impossible to have an original idea or an original thought that has not been tainted by outside influences. Meditation gives you the experience of hearing your soul speak. Don’t waste any more time and energy living the lives of other peoples imaginations. Instead, practice being free to choose to live the life that is specifically and uniquely meant for you. This freedom to live life on your own terms is not only necessary for you, but it is your responsibil…
