My guest today is Cindy Tank-Murphy. Best-selling author, international speaker, and mental health advocate, Cindy Tank-Murphy offers a unique perspective on the much-needed conversation around overcoming the grief from suicide and the mental health epidemic around it. Trained in Mental Health First Aid and certified in QPR, a suicide prevention technique, Cindy believes we can eliminate the stigma associated with mental illness through awareness and open dialogue that will ultimately save lives. Cindy’s life was forever changed on July 22, 2014, when her father ended his life, and she was left with a choice to make. She could allow shame, guilt, and sorrow to swallow her whole or seek better understanding through education and a new version of herself through vulnerable self-discovery. Thankfully, she chose the latter, which began a massive shift in her healing journey, one that has had a profound and lasting impact on her future and called her to be a compassionate voice regarding mental health. Her gift is her desire to help others heal by exploring their own stories and finding compassion and understanding amid the sorrows of suicide. Her personal experience, perspective, and passion for sharing her experience make her an ideal mentor and a compassionate voice for those struggling emotionally with suicide loss or dealing with someone they love battling mental illness.

My guest today is Christelle Biiga. Christelle's journey began with a deep-seated curiosity about the emotional well-being of others, often finding herself pondering the happiness of strangers. This early empathy set the stage for her life's work. As a teenager, she realized the powerful influence public figures could wield, sparking a dream to use such visibility to positively impact lives. Her pursuit of this dream led her to the United States, a move marked by significant challenges. Upon arrival, Christelle faced a false accusation and the threat of deportation, resulting in a nine-month legal battle in a detention center. This ordeal only strengthened her resolve to share her story and inspire resilience in others. Christelle's experiences, shared on various podcasts, resonated deeply with audiences, affirming her belief in the power of storytelling to uplift and encourage. Recognizing that her story was just one of many tools for change, she saw a need to connect individuals seeking guidance with those who could provide it – coaches, entrepreneurs, business owners, and authors. This insight led to the founding of Exposure Maven.

My guest today is Michelle Leblanc. Michelle LeBlanc began her career as a clinical pharmacist in 1990. While it paid well, being a pharmacist, and approaching health and healing from the allopathic medicine approach, was never her passion. She realized how limiting and closed-minded that approach was very early in her career. Because of that, she's spent the past 30+ years immersing herself in learning numerous tools and modalities in the realm of holistic healing, psychology, mindset, neuroscience, stress management, nutrition, fitness, intuition, quantum physics as it relates to spirituality, etc. She also pursued a lot of topics which most people would consider to be new age and/or woo-woo. But because Michelle is also very left-brained, analytical, and logical, she approached it all through a scientist's lens. Those who know her best would describe her as a 'perfect dichotomy' - she loves being able to bridge the gap between science and spirituality.

" - 00:03:20 "Your mindset is basically that set point of where you are and it's the set point of how you operate."- 00:15:54 "I would say do things like reframing positive affirmations or just asking questions of the universe. Hey, universe, how can I do X, Y, and Z? And then I like to add as if by magic,  or instead of saying, I am a money,  I have money, I am abundant." - 00:31:26   THE WORLD needs to hear your message and your story.
