    David Bowie and Glenn Frey, what can we learn from them?

    After a much needed hiatus, I am back with the relaunch of my show. So excited! In this episode we will look at some great things to help us unleash our best in how we live our day-to-day lives. 

    Often times in our busy days we get caught up in just making it through. We look at folks such as Glen Frey and David Bowie and it is easy to see their success and think they have it made, however just like us, their days are final. In this episode we will look at the top 2 regrets of the dying inspired by Bronnie Ware's book, The Top Five Regrets of the Dying: A Life Transformed by the Dearly Departing.

    How to survive the crazy in-laws during the holidays

    How to survive the crazy in-laws during the holidays

    The holidays are here. For many of us that means….the crazy in-laws are coming. Join me this week as Kingsley Grant and I share our Surviving the Crazy Teleseminar highlights on my show this week. Find out more info at www.TheCrazyRelative.com.

    So what do we do when we know the crazy in-laws are coming?

    You know what we mean by crazy…
    There is the one crazy in-law that drives you crazy. He’s always finding ways to criticize what you do. When he have had a few drinks and sometimes even without a few drinks, he becomes obnoxious and crude.Then there is the other crazy in-law whose conversations tend to veer towards religion and politics and when it does, she becomes even more obnoxiously opinionated. Lets just say she wasn’t given the gift of sensitivity…when that was being handed out, she was out of the room.How about the in-law that tries to bully others by getting really loud. This becomes very uncomfortable for you. You want to do something about it, but you aren’t sure what to do. In the past when you’ve tried, it only got worse.

    Teen Suicide - How to Prevent It: Stomp Out Suicide Founder Sean Haines Join Us

    Teen Suicide - How to Prevent It: Stomp Out Suicide Founder Sean Haines Join Us

    Join me as Haines, Founder of Stomp Out Suicide Sean Haines shares the experience of how his daughter's sucide is reaching others. 

    Stom Out Suicide was created out of love and hope in memory of Alissa M. Haines of Wyoming, MN. Stomp Out Suicide is a local organization dedicated to the prevention of suicide through public awareness and community outreach. Our goal is to educate and increase discussion about suicide prevention and awareness.

    Suicide occurs most often in those who suffer from mental illnesses. Depression is the most common mental illness. Depression is not just a bad mood or a phase; it is a serious medical condition. In most cases depression and other mental illnesses can be treated, but the problem needs to be diagnosed by a professional. Suicide can have lasting harmful effects on individuals, families, and communities. While its causes are complex and determined by multiple factors, the goal of suicide prevention is simple: Reduce factors that increase risk, and increase factors that promote resilience. 

    One of the most important aspects of suicide prevention is support. The person who is struggling needs to know that you support and love him or her, and that you are willing to help them find hope in life again. Our goal at Stomp Out Suicide is to reach others like Alissa, and to prevent this tragedy from happening to people like her. Visit www.TheIronJen.com/StompOutSuicide for the show notes and links or visit www.StompOutSuicide for more info.
