This Christmas Eve, Sparking Change with Gigi welcomes a deeply moving and transformative conversation that invites us to reflect on what it truly means to live. In Near-Death to Divine Love—Living Life On Purpose, we explore how a profound near-death experience can awaken the soul and open the heart to Divine Love as a guiding force in everyday life. Our guest shares how crossing the threshold between life and death revealed powerful truths about consciousness, healing, and love—truths that are meant to be lived, not just remembered. This episode is an invitation to slow down, listen within, and realign with your soul’s purpose. It reminds us that when we choose love intentionally, life becomes richer, more meaningful, and deeply aligned with who we are meant to be. As we honor the sacred energy of Christmas Eve, this conversation offers hope, inspiration, and a gentle call to live with purpose, presence, and Divine Love at the center of all we do.

Learning to Heal from Trauma and PTSD

In this episode of Voices of Courage, Ken D. Foster sits down with integrative and functional medicine physician Dr. Rupa Chari MD to explore how hormone reset can transform your health at any age. They discuss why weight gain, fatigue, brain fog, poor sleep, and low energy—especially after 45—are not failures of discipline, but signs of deeper hormonal and metabolic imbalance.

Dr. Chari shares how stress, toxins, inflammation, gut health, and emotional patterns impact hormones and why over-exercising and extreme fasting can make symptoms worse. This conversation focuses on true root-cause healing, cellular health, conscious aging, and how personalized functional medicine testing helps restore balance, vitality, and long-term wellness naturally.

Dr. Rupa Chari is a board-certified integrative medical physician and co-founder of the Chari Center of Health, helping women over 45 and men rebalance hormones, lose stubborn weight, and feel years younger.

This conversation cuts through diet myths, burnout culture, and unrealistic routines to reveal a smarter, more sustainable path to physical transformation.

Odi Amiewalan is a transformation coach who once struggled with the very challenges he now helps leaders overcome—confusion around fueling, training, and staying consistent. After more than a decade of studying how high performers can optimize their bodies without restrictive dieting or burnout, Odi developed an approach that aligns fitness with real life. His philosophy focuses on sustainability, enjoyment, and systems that support ambition rather than drain it.

• Why busy entrepreneurs fail at fitness despite strong discipline
• The biggest myths keeping high performers stuck and frustrated

• How to transform your body without giving up your favorite foods

Ever notice how kindness sounds simple… until someone cuts you off in traffic or sends that one-word “k” text? In this special episode, Lisa Jones and Regina Martinelli dig into what it really means to stay kind when the world feels anything but. It’s funny, real, and full of those “me too” moments that remind us that kindness isn’t weakness, and boundaries don’t make you cold. Because when the world feels hard, kindness isn’t the soft stuff. It’s the solid stuff.

Most entrepreneurs think funding is about money. It's not. It's about buying speed. Vidar Hokstad has spent 30 years building startups—from his first at 19 to raising $6.5M—and reveals why VCs reject 90% of pitches before the first meeting. In this Total Disruption episode, Mike Leversey interviews the serial entrepreneur who now consults on both high-level VC strategy and hands-on AI implementation.

Key Takeaways:

"You're buying speed, not money" - the VC funding formula nobody explains

The fatal pitch mistake: Pitching slow, conservative growth = instant VC rejection

18-24 month rule: If your next round takes longer, you're not VC-viable

From $40K to $6.5M in 12 months - moved 25 people from Norway to UK on first investment

VCs want 100x returns, not 20% year-over-year - fund returners or nothing

AI coding agents (Claude Code, OpenAI CodeX) - Vidar built a functioning strategy game without writing code

The startup mindset: “Go big or close up shop”

Today’s conversation features Lisa Watson, an expert in trauma-informed healing and self-reparenting. We discuss how early childhood experiences shape our beliefs, emotions, and parenting styles. Lisa shares how reparenting offers a pathway to repair, emotional regulation, and long-term wellbeing.

Lisa introduces strategies for cultivating self-compassion, recognizing unmet needs, and creating the internal safety required to support both personal growth and confident parenting.

This episode is essential for anyone interested in emotional healing, conscious parenting, or understanding how our past informs our present.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Robin Harwick, visionary educator and founder of The Pearl Remote Democratic School. A trauma-informed, healing-centered school that reimagines what learning can look like for every child. We talk about how traditional systems often miss the needs of neurodivergent and highly sensitive students, and how safety, relationship, and voice must come before academics.

Robin shares the core principles behind her school such as choice, collaboration, and radical compassion. She offers practical examples of how teachers and caregivers can create emotionally safe environments where kids feel seen, heard, and empowered.

Have you ever wondered what a truly trauma-informed, healing-centered education could look like in real life? This conversation will give you hope, ideas, and a renewed vision for what’s possible.

In this episode, Theresa sits down with Russell Van Brocklen, The Dyslexia Professor, to explore what truly helps dyslexic children learn to read. Russell breaks down why many traditional methods fall short and shares effective, research-based strategies that build confidence, strengthen decoding, and support real reading success. If you’re a parent or educator looking for clarity and practical tools, this conversation is for you.

In this heartfelt episode of Living in Faith, we explore the greatest gift ever given—God’s unconditional love. In a world filled with uncertainty, fear, and distraction, this conversation is a gentle yet powerful reminder that faith is rooted in love, and love is the foundation of our spiritual strength. Together, we reflect on how embracing God’s love allows us to release doubt, heal from within, and walk with greater trust, peace, and purpose. When we truly receive this divine gift, it transforms how we see ourselves, how we show up for others, and how we navigate life’s challenges with grace and hope. This episode invites you to pause, open your heart, and reconnect with the love that never leaves, never fails, and is always available—the love of God.

Most teams don’t have a people problem—they have a workflow problem. This week, Phil sits down with Tom Nassr, serial entrepreneur and Co-Founder of XRay.Tech (and former founder of design agency Checkmate.Digital, exited in 2019). Tom’s mission: design smarter, human-centered systems so knowledge workers can spend less time on repetitive tasks and more time on meaningful work.
We dig into how to map processes, where AI and automation add real value (not hype), and why the hardest part isn’t the tech—it’s education and change management. Tom also previews his new initiative, LowCodeEngineers.com, bringing enterprise-grade workflow design to small businesses via hourly engagements. If you’re scaling and feel the friction, this conversation is your blueprint from reactive to reliable.

Andrea Goldner is a lifelong caregiver, children’s book author, and advocate for families facing the often unseen challenges of medical and emotional care. Born in Philadelphia and blind in her left eye since birth, she grew up navigating a misdiagnosed vision treatment, bullying, and academic challenges—yet found resilience through athletics and determination. At 54, Andrea was diagnosed with high-level ADHD, a revelation that finally brought clarity to the unique way her mind works and affirmed the intelligence and adaptability she had spent years underestimating. For more than three decades, Andrea has devoted herself to caregiving in all its forms—raising her own children, serving as a top 1% nanny, and providing medical and emotional support to seniors. Her most meaningful experience came when caring for her mother through her final days. Later, witnessing her husband’s journey caring for his mom with Alzheimer’s deepened her belief that caregivers deserve better systems of support. Motivated by these experiences, Andrea helped develop ProxWell, a proximity-wellness platform designed to help families coordinate care with clarity and ease, no matter where they are. Her insight and compassion were instrumental in shaping a tool that empowers caregivers to communicate, collaborate, and show up for their loved ones with less stress and more confidence. Andrea is also the author of four published children’s books, with two additional titles forthcoming in her series, The Adventures with Nanni Andi. Inspired by her years as a nanny, her stories capture the warmth, wonder, and real-life adventures of childhood—reflecting her lifelong commitment to nurturing connection and joy in the lives of others.
