We can not love Alyssa Mae's drive, confidence, passion and desire to help people any more! From an early age, she knew that she wanted to own a salon and be a force behind the chair - but her dreams have continued to grow and so has her business footprint - most of her growth is from big ideas and not taking no for an answer. Her business model is also evolving to one that she is able to not only continue to enhance and expand her skills, but helping those around her do the same - she has a passion for mentoring young professionals that will either be employed by her or own their own businesses! Not only is she mentoring in business, but Bio Girls has filled a hole in her life. "I want them to know that we all are great inside" She is able to use her experiences as well as compassion to help mentor and support young girls through the program. As she's said - she's getting more from the girls than she could ever give to them. She gushes about the strong people that she surrounds herself with - specifically detailing the influences her amazing Grandma, mom and step dad have been - as well as the network of lifelong friends. And guess what - she's only 29! Wow - she's a pretty amazing woman!

Time to change that mind set!Natalie Perhus joins us to talk about how she is utilizing her individual talents in Marketing to contribute to Rebuilding Together's organization, which helps lower income, Vets and people in need of home repairs.

Is it possible to have a 100% balanced life? We all get bogged down in thinking that we aren't giving enough to one or multiple things in our lives, but if we focus on what really is important and needs our prioritization - there is hope to have a balance that works for us!Dr Desiree Zielke and Trisha Powell, Licensed Therapist, have decided to focus on just that with their unique clinic - Becoming Balanced - that specializes in only women and women's needs. After working in a large health care organization and finding that they were feeling weighed down by their own expectations of themselves and the needs of others, they took 6 months to form the type of clinic that would fulfill a need for women but also for themselves. They now have the freedom to control their content, focus areas and needs of their patients and build upon the belief that one day, they will be able to offer a place that women can go for all their "self care" needs from therapy to nutrition to mindful awareness, yoga and everything else in between.
