182. The Art Of Being H(You)man. Meg Heppner

Meg Heppner is going to educate me on her mennonite people!  We talk about how humans bastardize religion and when you start raising kids you have to figure out how to live!  Today she’s facing her God complex!  Better Call Daddy:The Safe Space For Controversy.

Celia, my daughter, sneaks in at the end of the episode with tacos and connects to Meg about having three brothers!  

Meg is a life coach, blogger and event host that is passionate about walking with people who want more out of life than just the status quo!
She believes that life doesn’t have to work out exactly the way we think it “should” in order to be enjoyed and that people don’t have to be perfect in order to be loved.
She believes that we all have the voice of truth inside of us but sometimes it can be hard to hear. And most importantly that we must live between the tension of accepting the things we cannot change and taking massive action on the things we can!
Meg creates spaces where women can slow down and process all the things that are influencing and controlling their lives - their everyday thoughts, emotions, and the stories they have been telling themselves.

Spaces where they can look at their inner world, gain valuable insight and then reclaim their personal authority, and make conscious decisions that transform the way they experience their lives!
Through one on one coaching, group coaching and workshops Meg helps women show up in the world with more love, and less ego, more compassion, and less judgment, more vulnerability, and less shame, more emotional agility and less fear!
Meg is also the current Branch Director of South Surrey/White Rock for Happy Healthy women.
Meg’s currently running events are:
The Self Love Series (March 2021 to June 2021)
The Art Of Being H(You)man Series (January 2021 to April 2021) The Goddess Talks (All of 2021)
Meg lives in British Columbia with her husband of 20 years, two teenage boys and their little dog Charlie. To learn more about Meg and her business, visit her website ​realexcellentliving.com

180. Pinned Not Weak. Geoffrey Moore

Geoffrey’s dad was born in 1906, a larger than life hero, he was an engineer on a mining expedition in the subarctic, people thought his dad was his grandfather!  What’s it like growing up with a father who’s a retiree?  Today we talk about needing a hand up, mental health challenges, and what can happen when you get pinned in life!

Better Call Daddy: The Safe Space For Controversy.

Geoff Moore is a proud husband and father of four children. He is an active volunteer and second time entrepreneur with a passion for sustainable finance.  His greatest hero is his dad, who was a World War II veteran!

 

Almost ten years ago, his first entrepreneurial venture did not succeed and a whole host of issues drove him into the hospital for 5 weeks with a mental breakdown.  Based on this and other life experiences, he has decided to launch The Pinned Podcast in order to make a contribution to ending mental health stigma by engaging in authentic conversations with people who have battled through lived experiences of mental health challenges or who have provided care to those who do. Each conversation will be an opportunity for a candid sharing of the invitee's story and their messages of hope for those who are "pinned" today. The goal is to provide a "hand-up" to help people realize that all humans can get "pinned" and they are no

..."pinned" and they are not alone. There is never any shame in seeking a hand-up and the best time to seek it is always today. 

Physical and mental health are of course intrinsic, central aspects of being alive... Why then should they be viewed any differently when people are in need of care?

177. Are You Prepared For Death? Gregory Proctor

Gregory Proctor has been through hell and back multiple times!  He’s experienced divorce, the loss of his daddy, and multiple myeloma.  Are you built for this?   In order to move forward with anything difficult in life you have to have resilience, motivation, and the ability to work under pressure!

Joining the military was nothing after the rules and governance in the Proctor home!  When you leave the house you better be put together!  He chose to explore the world, technology, and the seas!  Eight years in the military, thank you for your service!  Better Call Daddy: The Safe Space For Controversy!

Greg Proctor is an entrepreneur, innovator, and podcaster with a passion for helping others overcome challenges by creating opportunities that add value.  

 

A seasoned 25+ year dynamic leader who understands business and the humans who power it, he has an uncanny ability to anticipate trends and see things others cannot. 

As founder and Managing Director of SchXer, he uses his unique talents as an organizational resiliency advisor, helping companies mitigate risk so they can survive and prosper long-term. It’s hard to leverage change when you’re unprepared to handle disruptions to your supply chain, human capital, and day-to-day business operations. A sudden crisis can be all it takes to catch a company off guard and send it into a tailspin. That’s where I come in.  

 

Also Cofounder of Tru-Spot Technologies, he and his business partner have revolutionized augmented reality for online virtual seat purchasing, immersive fan viewing (without the Oculus headgear, as we like to say) all from the comfort of home.  

And lastly, as the founder of Kut2ThaChase Podcast, he has disrupted the podcasting ecosystem by bringing forth a social & culture platform for everyone to sharing stories that nourish our souls through an unscripted dialogue.
