Your Stories Don’t Define You – How You Tell Them Will

Your Stories Don’t Define You, How You Tell Them Will

It’s not the things that happen in your life that define you, that create your identity. It’s how you talk about those things. 

That’s the theme behind this podcast. Research shows that the stories you tell have a major influence in how you see yourself and in how others perceive you, so it’s important to be intentional about which stories you share and how you share them.

Guests on the podcast share the pivotal moments in their lives and careers, offering keen insights and “ah ha” moments to listeners, while triggering related memories of listeners, opening up opportunities to uncover their own patterns and discover better ways to share their stories.

The Health and Wellness Podcast by Exactly Zero

Exactly Zero

We’re a family of six in the St. Louis area who had a cancer scare back in 2012. But instead of it crushing us, it launched us into an amazing journey.

Podcast

This show is all about the journey we’ve had in learning about clean living, good nutrition, and how we took a health crisis that happened in 2012 and turned it into something that’s ended up helping us and others get better control of our health. We ended up starting a business called Exactly Zero in early 2021, And, it’s strengthened our Christian faith on the way.


Website

Our company, Exactly Zero, is blessing people all over the country with clean, toxin free products. We started making products for ourselves back in 2012 but in 2021 we launched this company. Here is one of the many markets we attend, and as you can see we’re a well-oiled machine getting things set up 🙂

My instruments provide a guaranteed, fast, harmless and painless treatment process that has successfully healed patients with quantum illnesses such as HIV viral disease, Ebola, herpes, hepatitis, Lyme disease, tuberculosis, malaria, etc. Over 400,000 pathogens are identified and subsequently disassembled by way of this unique scalar energy protocol. These scalar light instruments administer the scalar energy reverse-phase angle harmonic of a pathogen, thereby causing that agent of infection to disassemble or fall apart. Bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoan, can all be disassembled, representing a cure or prevention for thousands of diseases. Once the causative agent of a pathogen disease has been eliminated, the symptoms associated with that infection decrease or disappear altogether. 15 days of FREE scalar light sessions are available to the general public on the home page: http://www.scalarlight.com

Topics

  • Scalar Light offers the cure for pathogenic disease.

Questions

  • Where does scalar energy originate and describe its nature?
  • What is the difference between scalar energy and electromagnetic energy?
  • How does scalar energy transmute matter?
  • How does scalar energy / Scalar Light turn on the ability to form our own nutrients?
  • How does scalar energy allow Tom Paladino to enhance energetic state of being by way of their photograph?
  • What is the future of scalar energy and how will it’s acceptance serve to change the world for the better?
  • What unique experiences have you witnessed when working with scalar energy in your laboratory?
  • Explain how scalar energy is everywhere in the universe and thus transcends time and space.
  • Explain how scalar energy is the cause of time.

I spent 10 years as a public school teacher, working with special education students and regular education students K-12. My career led me to work in multiple levels of education (high school for 2 years, elementary for 4 years, and the last 4 years were spent in the middle school).

By the age of 28, I struggled with multiple disorders and was living a pretty limited life: ADHD, depression, fibromyalgia, and hospitalized multiple times for autoimmune issues. Because of the chronic pain and mental anguish, I was barely able to meet the daily responsibilities of my life.

Feeling broken and helpless, not sure if I was going to participate in my children growing up, I began to seek answers to the medical problems that doctors were not helping me solve. That took me on an incredible health journey, which ultimately led me to the powerful modality of using Sound to improve mental, physical and emotional health.

Once I began attending sound therapy sessions myself, I began to improve in all areas of my life. I was able to get off all medications, and have now lived pain free for

over a year. After living over 8 years in chronic pain, I felt a new level of freedom that I never thought possible.

At the same time, I was seeing the negative impact that Covid had on our society, especially on children and families. I knew that I wanted to help people in a greater way than I could in the classroom, so I began training to be a sound therapist. I also became a certified mindful health coach, giving me an even greater perspective towards overall health. Now, I run a full-service sound immersion studio in St. Peters, Missouri. My goal is to spread the awareness and impact of Sound as a highly-effective and efficient form of self-care.

Topics

  • Sound Therapy
  • Mindful living
  • Self Care
  • Taking small breaks to improve your day
  • Reducing and Releasing stress
  • Living with ADHD
  • Parenting ADHD children
  • Navigating the special education process in public schools as a parent

Questions

  • What is sound therapy?
  • Benefits of sound therapy?
  • How can we benefit from sound awareness in our everyday lives?
  • I honestly can’t think of every question that I could answer, because there are a lot of them
  • I am confident in answering a lot of questions, especially regarding the topics in the previous question.

Bio

Alvaro has been in the Audio Video design space since 2012 and has worked with businesses in a variety of sizes and markets. Currently serving as Marketing Director for the largest home automation design firm in the Palm Springs area, while also acting as a consultant for home automation firms in the Chicago, Denver, and LA areas, and even being on the board of two mission-driven startups.. it seems that he does everything he can to help business owners and communities around the world to increase their own impact. Coming in to the home design technology space with an existing AV marketing background is a rarity in the industry, so today we’re going to ask him a few questions to better understand common issues with the way Audio/Video, lighting design, interior designs, architectural and other design firms typically try to build out their sales and marketing systems.

Topics

  • How to move from “order taker” to trusted designer, without trying to be a social media influencer and without having to hire on an internal marketing team.
  • The disconnect between luxury AV firms and the client experience they’re providing. (Selling high ticket items alone does not make a business “luxury” level.)

Questions

  • What is the most overlooked piece of the marketing puzzle that, if business owners did this, it would make the most results in the shortest amount of time?
  • You’ve been able to simplify marketing from being this expensive and difficult process to something simple, that doesn’t require a huge budget, but that is still very effective. Can you tell us more about what makes up your specific system and shed some light on the marketing strategy you use for your clients?

Michelle Harris

Michelle Harris

Bio

Michelle Harris has over 25 years of leadership experience with more than half of that time spent at an executive level in high-growth, private equity backed companies. She founded Bosstrack to provide women, new to leadership roles, with the development, support and mentorship she found lacking for new leaders.

Her niche is building high performing teams – she is passionate about developing people and shaping her teams to produce results and grow in their roles.

Often little thought is given to the new tools and perspectives needed to lead and, as a result, new leaders are expected to just “figure things out”. Bosstrack was developed to fill this gap. She has led her teams through financial reorganizations, acquisitions and multi-billion dollar private equity sales. She is

excited to bring this opportunity to new women leaders!

Michelle was a single mom at the age of 19 who took a small break from college to adjust and then moved back to the Philadelphia area to finish college independently with her 1 ½ year old son.

Her determination and resilience along with her passion for continuous learning is a big factor in her rise in leadership so early. When not working to empower women leaders, you can find Michelle in the water, in a photography studio or at a new restaurant. She enjoys photography, scuba diving, free diving, enjoying food and wine and exploring new places. She is a mom to two and wife of a former Marine.

Michelle is also the host of the podcast Her Hype Squad with Bosstrack.
