Time 2 Shine Happiness Show with the BBs (9th of January 2023)
"Set those alarms and synchronize your clocks! for 1/9 @9:00 a.m. CST/10:00 a.m. EST. It's Time 2 Shine on the Happiness Show with Barbara J. Beckley and Barbara Ellison! This week, we're elated to have the phenomenal Sharla L. Shults. As an educator, Sharla began teaching high school chemistry and mathematics in Alabama, then a move to Ohio led her to the middle school classroom. After four years, she ventured outside education and began a second career in the railroad industry. Sharla re-entered the educational field after an eleven-year break, and her experiences from her railroad career provided a real-world connection to the classroom. Sharla’s last year in the classroom involved working with teens in an at-risk dropout prevention program. While involved in this endeavor, she introduced a Poetic Math Challenge, which uncovered her passion as a poetic mathematician. In 2001, Sharla once again left the classroom but remained in the field of education with Beacon Educator in the Bay District School System in Panama City, FL writing curriculum and providing professional development for teachers across Florida. She semi-retired in 2008, at which time she became an Online Learning Specialist for Beacon Educator. In 2004, Sharla published her first book of poetry, Echoes, followed by Remembering (2009), and Awakenings (2012). Sharla’s most recent book, Catnip of Life (2023), gained the accolade as an Amazon #1 Bestseller. In addition, she is also a contributing author of the INside effects – How The Body Heals Itself by Keith Leon S. This book reached #1 International Bestseller on July 5, 2023 with the documentary film by the same name being launched July 8, 2023. Upcoming books include smaller volumes of poetry for daily inspiration, Nature’s Little Treasures and Voices in Nature. Her children’s book, Buzzin’ opens the gateway as nature speaks – a child’s view. She has recently been featured on America Matters Media, Write Now, VoiceAmerica, Every Day is a New Day, Let’s Talk Fab (panelist), and WJHG CH 7. Her most recent article appears in Stroll Grand Lagoon, a local publication in Panama City, FL. On June 22, 2023, Sharla signed a contract and is presently in training for the TEDx stage. TEDx is a platform for delivering “ideas worth spreading”. Sharla’s goal is to solidify how time in nature nurtures the body, mind, and spirit. A simple change or recognition of something missing can result in the rejuvenation of the body where positivity thrives and negativity no longer survives. Sharla continues to expand her connections providing motivation and inspiration, including public speaking, podcasts, audio presentations, blogging, mentoring youth, and writer’s workshops for aspiring authors. Her daily question, “What’s next?” The best is yet to come, Don't miss out – join us at 9:00 a.m. CST/10:00 a.m. EST. A brighter, bolder life awaits! #Time2Shine Watch under www.E360TV.com, the DFN YouTube Channel diamondfactorexperiencenetwork"
