New Book Release “Simply Amazing Women” Published by Celebrity K.C. Armstrong and Features Author & Advocate, Deb Morgan, and twelve other women who are overcomers.
Simply Amazing Women by Celebrity K.C. Armstrong features advocate of recovery and twelve other women who have overcome life’s challenges and now help others.
New Author and Recovery Advocate, Deb Morgan is a shining example that recovery from addiction works and is possible.
In Celebrity Radio Host K.C. Armstrong’s new book, Simply Amazing Women: ‘Become Inspired by Deb Morgan’ and twelve other women who share their stories of overcoming life’s intense challenges and how each woman is using their overcoming wisdom to help others find purpose, healing, and transformation. Diane Donovan, a Senior Reviewer at Midwest Book Review, states, “If ever there was a good time to publish an inspirational collection of stories, it’s now.” Simply Amazing Women is about choosing the kinds of responses during adversity that translate to survival and courage. While these mini-biographies were compiled before COVID-19, they highlight the ongoing need for inspiration now as never before and are intended, like those in its predecessor, Simply Amazing Special Author’s Edition, to provide the encouragement to not just go on with life, but make it the best possible. The examples posed by these women all demonstrate paths to rising above adversity. Readers receive a survey filled with intense battles involving self-healing, transformation, and the kind of self-improvement that leads to helping others both through example and by outward-oriented effort. Mr. Armstrongs’ many interviews chose these empowering women he has done to pick those writers and stories, and their paths taken were more than just about rising above adversity. These remarkable women’s lives unfolded through interviews designed to pinpoint the origins of their strengths and perspectives; readers are treated to a moving, inspirational account offering various strategies for overcoming adversity. As a new world replete with fear, death, and division emerges, there is no better time for reading and considering this book’s underlying message about not just survival, but building and rebuilding a better life from the ashes of disaster. Very highly recommended as a torchlight guiding the way to transformation. Barbara Bamberger Scott of U.S. Review of Books has applauded K.C. Armstrong for shining an encouraging bright spotlight on the women’s unique experiences. He appropriately prefaces each woman’s account of barriers and successes and, when needed, deftly prompts, offering pertinent facts and gently phrased questions. It’s an effective technique, creating a comfort zone of understanding. Interviewees are respected as they recount defining moments and share accumulated wisdom. This is the second book in the Simply Amazing series, with interviews taking place in Armstrong’s internet and F.M. outlet WMAP (World’s Most Amazing People). His introduction references the current COVID-19 pandemic, remarking that all the stories in this aggregation involve “a personal pandemic that one has to get through somehow.” International in scope, this volume will doubtless be inspirational for women of any age and provide a lively focus for women’s groups and forums across the globe. “Simply Amazing Women” goes on sale, Friday, May 1, 2020. The new book will undoubtedly help encourage all who read it and help us to begin moving forward after this Coronavirus has ended. It can also help us start moving forward in living life again!

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guests Donna and Stephen Fry, on-air from May 26th
What we have learnt so far on our journey of meeting someone new every day for 366 days. The Why are we doing it and whom does it serve along the way? This is our topic of conversation today on the importance of connecting with kindness.
Stephen and Donna went to School together in country South Australia in the late ‘70s/early 80s, but never spoke a word to each other at School. After School, they each went their own way, Stephen moving to Adelaide for University and Donna starting a career in Administration. They both got married in their early 20s, had four children each and carried on with their lives.
In 2012, they started conversing via Facebook Messenger and discovered that they had a similar story of a failed marriage. Through conversation, they found that they had the same mindset and thinking about a lot of things. They decided to meet and became good friends. Then in 2015, they got married. At the time of getting married, Stephen and Donna realized that what they were doing in their lives was not going to get them to where they wanted to go, so a change was necessary. They sought quality mentorship and were introduced to a couple who were successful in all areas of life. In fact, they were living the kind of lifestyle that Stephen and Donna knew they wanted. They drove 9 hours to meet this couple and after many conversations, they agreed to take Stephen and Donna under their wings and coach and mentor them. This started the desire to change which has led to the 366 day journey of meeting someone new every day

The “tagline” I use often is “Mindfulness is Not Just For Yogis”, and what I mean by that is the practice of mindfulness can be applied to our everyday lives, including how we operate at the workplace.
A simple straightforward way to explain what I do:
I support individuals and organizations struggling with burnout and workplace stress through mindfulness training, which develops resilience and the ability to persevere through a fact-paced and ever-changing work environment ??.
In 2014, my father passed away suddenly from a heart attack. It was devastating. I also had a large amount of credit card debt, my job paid me decently but I didn’t love what I did, and my marriage was falling apart. I started reading everything I could about how to deal with the grief, get out of this rut and turn my life around. What I learned to develop was a skill that changed my life completely.
The skill is self-observation. I learned to look OBJECTIVELY at how I operate. How I think. How I feel. How I behave. I learned to understand WHY I do the things I do, and how to change my behavior. By developing this skill, I learned how to be resilient, perform better, lead better, and work better with others.
The practice I learned to develop self-observation is MINDFULNESS. It has been the one practice that turned my life around. I joined Tesla and in under 4 years worked my way up to running Sales Training at a national level. I started a business. I’m in a happy and healthy relationship. I’m in the best shape of my life.
For years, I’ve developed training programs for billion-dollar companies such as Tesla and SolarCity. One thing I learned is that adults need a bit more than just DRY CONTENT to learn something new. So, I developed an approach to training that combines Education and Entertainment to ensure a world-class learning experience! Adults retain information better when we’re having FUN in the process. My training programs are designed to engage learners in a way that you won’t typically find in online courses.
My goal is to provide an experience! One that provides individuals with the practical application of new ideas that will support growth in the workplace.
I could have chosen to leverage my training skills to develop online courses for many different topics, but I chose mindfulness because I have EXPERIENCED the benefits, and it is my true passion!
My mission is to bring mindfulness to the workplace to support individuals or companies struggling with stress, burnout, uncertainty, or a lack of motivation. I feel as though this is my purpose!
