Building your business with Sara Troy and her guest Bethany Meadows, on air from January 24th

For business owners who also are also called mom, finding both success and striking the right balance can be challenging. In this episode, we will dive into the insights of an experienced mompreneur and find out the secrets she uses to find success without compromising her focus on family.

Bethany Meadows has been a mompreneur for almost 20 years and understands firsthand about the “juggle” of running a business and raising a family.

In 2008, after going through a divorce and wanting to continue homeschooling her five children, starting her own business seemed like the answer. Using her previous experience as a corporate marketing executive, Bethany founded Vertical Solutions Media, a full-service brand and marketing agency that helps businesses grow and succeed.

Her first book, Getting A Grip: Build A Custom Parenting Plan That Actually Works was published in 2017. In Getting A Grip, Bethany shares her insights on intentional parenting objectives and creating a framework for meeting them.

Now, she is a on mission to help mompreneurs find success and balance in both their business and family. Her newest title The Juggle is REAL! Finding success and balance as a mompreneur gives the reader the benefit of 30 years of brand and marketing experience to help them grow their business. At the same time, she explores how to strike the right balance, remove friction, build a tribe and find parenting success.

Bethany Meadows started Vertical Solutions Media in June of 2008. At the time it was a financial solution for a homeschooling single mom of five children. Relying on her extensive marketing background, Bethany continued to grow the company and today, Vertical Solutions Media is a full-service marketing agency based in Birmingham, Alabama. For over 14 years they have provided marketing consulting and services to dozens of companies in a vast array of industries.

The company’s mission has always been Reinventing Success. This is an acknowledgement that every business owner’s path to success will look different. 

Time to Thrive was created out of a desire to serve those small businesses who find themselves unsure how to take their business to the next level. Becoming stagnant in your business is not an option. It’s your choice whether or not you will THRIVE.

As part of that mission, Bethany launched TimeToThriveMembership.com as a way of helping small business owners level up their sales and marketing skills.

NA23-04. Jason Umidi, Jesus and Seltzer.

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Nature of Addictions with Sara Troy and her guest Jason Umidi, on air from January 24th

Sobriety has a wonderful way of bringing all things into the light, if you’re willing. Detox finally opened the door to sustained sobriety for actor Jason Umidi on January 10, 2012. Gratitude for a life that’s been redeemed and restored permeates his entire being. His sobriety requires him to live in the moment and his faith asks him to lead a life of service, loving as he has been loved. 

After being clean and sober for a couple of years, Jason was looking to share his personal journey on Facebook in the hopes that someone might be encouraged by his story. This developed into a series of popular, short blog posts about addiction, recovery, and hope, known as “Today’s One Minute Reads.” Jesus & Seltzer is Jason’s curated collection of his One Minute Reads.

In Jesus and Seltzer, Jason starts each inspiration page with a quote by a person, actor or character, from which he has gathered strength in his daily journey in sobriety. 

In this interview, Jason talks about:

  • How to get back with God after all the disappointments in life and with yourself
  • How to find hope, love and redemption in the recovery journey
  • What is serenity and can it be truly attained
  • How to handle regrets without relapsing
  • What do you do when you want to escape reality again
  • Finding your sense of purpose during the journey
  • Recalls painful times as an actor that made him feel like he needed to numb the emotions
  • Dealing with holidays and family drama during sobriety
  • 3 things You can do to jumpstart your journey for sobriety

As a pastor’s kid who grew up in the church, Jason had his fair share of Sunday services. However, none of them prepared him for the disappointments in life – whether it was the relationship that didn’t work out, the dream job that never materialized, the loss of health, or the death of a loved one. For most, it’s simply the dreams that never came into fruition. Church and its collection of “do’s & don’ts” for how to live your life didn’t soothe his broken soul. His faith faltered during his personal struggles, as the chronic pain from 5 spine fusion surgeries overwhelmed him and his bipolar depression left him feeling empty and dead. Jason found alcohol, prescription opioids and fentanyl to be a much better comfort. In 2012, Jason began his sober journey. His renewed life in the spirit promises that all things work together for good for those who love God, and are called according to his purpose. Jason is now helping others as a recovery coach. He is the author of the new book,

My mind set is mapped out through my heart that connects me to the earth. I realize the word earth and heart have the same letters.

YH23-04. Sarah Chave on “Creating New Earth”

It is time to birth a new future! The transformation of the external world starts with each of us as individuals. Let us work together to make this change, to be the change we want to see in the world!

?        What can we create together?

Sarah has just been made the International Ambassador in Portuical for People Health Alliance

Sarah was in her 20s when her life took a dramatic turn: she traumatically lost her fiancée and baby. She felt such deep and profound grief that she began withdrawing from life. The coping mechanisms that had served her until this point in her life failed completely, and for a while she was completely lost.

Sarah ultimately picked herself up and pointed herself in the direction of learning new things that could potentially help. Her journey, painful as it was, led her to where she is today.

Sarah is an energy worker and healer who over the past few years has felt called to be part of the birthing of “the New Earth.” To that end, she and her family are currently in the process of going off the grid, exploring new (and also very old) ways of being, and cultivating right relationship to nature, the environment, and to spirit.

On a very practical level, Sarah is learning how to set herself up sustainably on her own land. But on a deeper level, she is supporting others who are doing the same, and cultivating a community where everybody is connected, growing, and nourishing one another. She has been honored with the role of Global Wellness Ambassador at the Global Wellness Summit 2022 and is excited to continue her work in the community and across the globe to create New Earth. She is host of New Earth Podcast and has been instrumental in development of the People’s Health Alliance in Portugal.

23-04. Age Well not Age Resistance.

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Sara’s View Of Life with Sara Troy, on air January 24th

Aging well and allowing ourselves to age is the key here. Hanging on our past age and trying to look the same and behave the same as back then means you are not allowing yourself to be who you are now. Don’t get me wrong, I am all for looking the best we can with help from creams, etc., but not Botox or cosmetic surgery to look young again because you do not like aging.

Aging is a gift in many ways; we acquire wisdom, knowledge, insight, patience, the value of life itself, and respect for ourselves and others for what we have weathered over time. Only age can give us that, and only age can help us understand the true value of life. When we are young, in our 20-30s, we think we are unstoppable and unbeatable and that you will never age like our parents. As we age we learn a lot more about life, its ups and downs and just what we can cope with.

Seeing someone trying to hold on to their youth by turning the clock back or just refusing to move forward and age gracefully is sad; for not embracing your every day and taking the ride of life, you are missing out on so much. Do you know how courageous and strong you are? Do you know how resilient you are? Do you know how capable you are? You only find out by taking life’s journey while aging.

I have been creaming my skin since I was 12 years old, because I have dry skin, but moisturizing and eating a healthy diet and keeping your stress level down with meditation and or exercise, will keep you young looking and feeling young too. Your look on life as a half full or half empty attitude will be the experience you get out of life. We all get hard knocks, trip ups, downright cosmic 2 by 4’s, but if we approach life with joy and a joyful attitude, we can weather anything.

So yes, take care of your self, age well, with good health, mind wealth, and a soul and heart full of wonderment and possibilities, and those years won’t be so daunting or prepressing, and you will not be escaping back in time to when you were young nd the glory days, but enjoying life in all you are now and your life’s abundant experiences.

Age is just a number, a good attitude is a choice, fearing age is insecurity, and defining ages does and don’ts means your living life to the fullest right up to the end. ENJOY IT, LIVE IT, TAKE CARE OF YOUR WHOLE SELF AND LET LIFE SHOW YOU HAW WONDERFUL IT CAN BE EVEN WHILE AGING.
