Ileana Collazo

Ileana Collazo's photoI learned all I needed about creating art as a young girl in my grandmother’s garden—where I sat doing what as an adult I call meditating—that quiet spot, became my temple.

Many years passed before I began to birth the creations conceived in my early daydreams. I started to write fiction and poetry, and then my mind exploded into a galaxy of colors, shapes, and, movement, as I started to paint (on surfaces, digitally, and then included digital photography to my artistic spectrum); creating dream worlds that entice observers to travel through my work surface has become one of my key life purposes.  My art is representative of the twists and turns we take in the course of our daily lives, and of the awe-inspiring beauty that surrounds us.

My work is my gift to the world, and to everyone who falls in love with it.

I was born in Cuba; and have lived in Spain, New York, Vermont, and Massachusetts. I now reside in Miami, Florida where I work and play at Collazo Art Studio with my artist husband Miguel, three dogs, and a cat named Monkey.

This is a long-overdue project the artist has been sub-consciously creating since her childhood, and one she plans to continue working on for the rest of her life.
Her hope is to create a collective of like-minded men and women creatives to collaborate on a global project that will yield funds through art sales/sponsorships which will be partially donated to improve women’s lives around the globe; as well as provide well-deserved revenue for artists that dedicate their lives to creating thought-provoking, life-impacting works that benefit society at large.

TSM 15/36 A Series of Fortunate Events

Their Story Matters with Sara Troy and her Guest Bill Macquis originally aired September 8th 

Bill Mackie “Miracles in life don’t just happen, you live by making them happen

When everything is broken look to doing it a different way. We never know what we are capable of until we have to face doing something differently. Bill Mackie has had to face many adversities in life, both physical and mental but chose to see them as a gift and discover what this gift means for mankind.

    A few word from Bill…

    “Focusing the mind on accomplishing the impossible is how we transform our Dreams, Inspirations, Visions and Aspirations in life into becoming our reality. I am very thankful and fortunate for being blessed with all of my life experiences. For it is through these experiences that I am becoming the person that I am meant to be, a DIVA who believes that anything in life is possible. All you have to do is believe. Then as Nike says…”Just do it!”

    aspiringly,

TSM 15/37 The Holistic Cure for Barrett’s Disease and Living a Life

Their Story Matters with Sara Troy and her guest Christine Miskinis aired September 15th/15 

ChristineM-0442-Edit copyMy journey with Nutrition, Health and Wellness began when I was an infant.  I know that it may sound odd to say that, but it is true.  From my earliest days on this plane, I suffered from Digestive issues, as do many babies born each day.  My entire life was consumed by stomach attacks from Acid Reflux, IBS, GERD, and Dehydration, but it wasn’t until I reached my mid-20’s and found myself in an ER three times in 3 months that I decided something had to change!

At that point, I was diagnosed with Barrett’s Disease, gastroesophageal reflux disease Barrett’s esophagus is a serious complication of GERD, which stands for gastroesophageal reflux disease. In Barrett’s esophagus, normal tissue lining the esophagus — the tube that carries food from the mouth to the stomach — changes to tissue that resembles the lining of the intestine.

It was recommended that I see a Holistic Nutritionist, and that is where my healing began. I started to make small changes that impacted my life in big ways.  A few years later, when my son was born with similar issues, I decided it was time to make even more changes and began living a different lifestyle. He became my inspiration and driving force for wanting to help other moms learn how to take better care of their own families and themselves.

Today, I am embarking on a new journey and reaching out to help others that need some inspiration, knowledge and support in living a better life.  I call my business, Moms Coach for Life because I specialize in Moms, babies and children of all ages. I have devoted my own life to research, experimentation, networking, and have gained tons of experience on how to raise a Healthy child.  I know that I can help moms to heal themselves and their families through food. Even if you think that you don’t need healing now, we must all be proactive about our health and so it should be a priority to protect the health of yourself and your loved ones.  I can teach you how to do this in a manageable way that will positively affect all areas of your life.

This is the story that drew me to Christine and her story.

The day when my entire life changed was 13 years ago.

I stood in front of the Dr as he told me I had precancerous cells growing in my esophagus. There was nothing to do but to monitor me and watch to see if it became Cancer.

My mind frantically searched for an answer, and when it didn’t have the Solution for this problem, it went blank.

A calm feeling overcame me, and I heard my Inner Voice say- you are well. Go and allow your body to Heal.

In that moment, I took back the Power that I had been giving away for years while I had been Searching, Pushing and Forcing my way through life.

I found the Power within me.

I Discovered Truths that I had never known. A new way of living life.

My Inner Voice Brought me to this level of FREEDOM, to clearly see what was True and to Choose to live life Another way.

I Found Healing for my Body, my Mind and my Spirit.

What I learned, I became Inspired to TEACH others. I used my VOICE (the one that I almost lost) to Spread the Messages of Power, Truth and Healing that is available to everyone.

My Confidence grew as I practiced Tuning-In to my own Inner Voice and follow my Intuition as I lived my life.

I stepped into my Role of being a Leader, as a Coach and Motivational Speaker for other women who desire to do for themselves what I have done for myself.

Creating a successful business while working from home with two small children

A business that is deeply connected to my Purpose and Passion

Powerfully Speaking my Truth

Sharing my message

Connecting women to these Universal Messages of Healing, Power, Intuition, Truth, Freedom, Self-Love and VOICE so they can Rock it Out in their Lives.

If you’d like a Rock your Voice Assessment, I’m gifting them this week. Just go here and get yours:

TSM 15/35 I Walked away from Addiction


Their Story Matters with Sara Troy and her guest Jayda Jay, originally aired September 1st/15

This interview is for anyone struggling who believes the life they’re living now is unchangeable. I’m living proof there is a solution to the disease of addiction. It’s up to you to choose to hear me and take your own path to recovery, it can be done.

                     My yesterday and my today, I am now really living and not avoiding life

11921688_1151930868156867_8143841776529130964_n

8 months ago I checked myself into a detox facility where I embarked on this life long recovery journey. I was literally empty. Bankrupt in every sense of the word, in every form imaginable. Physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually & most definitely financially. Today, I am a changed person. I live a life of freedom. I don’t have to depend on a substance just to be able to get out of bed. I take care of my body, mind, my soul and spirit. My life is rich with family, friends and a support network of people who I can always trust. I am beyond grateful to be given such an amazing opportunity to live the life I was truly always meant to live. 1 out of 10 people suffers from the disease of addiction. 10% of the population. Sadly, very few take the opportunity to receive help yet it is available to us all so freely. Especially in British Columbia. Many think it’s impossible. Through education, rehabilitation, therapy & an abstinence-based recovery program I received the help I needed.

C15/36a War Room a movie on the Power of Prayer

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Stephen Kendrick aired September 8th on

Prayer love and laughter heals and shows you the way to living an abundant heart filled life. This is a movie that can bring back your love and show you the empowerment of prayer.

WR_WRAP-12

Times are hard, marriages are hurting, children are hurting, communities are crippled by fear and hate and divide, but when you can come together in Prayer you can heal, learn to love again and build your lives and communities in Gods faith and unison. 

Stephen and Alex Kendrick, creators of the new film WAR ROOM. Where prayer is the weapon of choice.

Co-Writer/Producer Stephen Kendrick

A No. 1 New York Times best-selling author and screenwriter, Stephen Kendrick produced the films FLYWHEEL, FACING THE GIANTS, FIREPROOF and COURAGEOUS. After developing each screenplay with his brother, Alex, Stephen builds strong, unified teams; guards the heart and quality of the finished product; and works to ensure distribution for the greatest impact. Together, Stephen and Alex have produced four films grossing a combined $78 million at the domestic box office with distribution in 76 countries.

image2In 2003 Alex and Stephen Kendrick (referred to as “the Kendrick brothers”) pioneered the modern faith film industry, beginning a wave of faith-based movies that has drawn remarkable attention from Hollywood in the last couple of years. Their first four movies together cost only $2.7 million to make, utilized thousands of volunteers from their small town of Albany, GA, and church, Sherwood Baptist, and have grossed over $80 million at the box office. These films (FLYWHEEL, FACING THE GIANTS, FIREPROOF, and COURAGEOUS) have drawn huge crowds with positive themes like: personal integrity, resilient faith, lasting marriages, and heroic parenting.
