Trish Bishop has a mission “To educate and inspire others to wake up and live consciously." Her hope is that The Question Journey™ can become a stepping stone for people to learn to trust their own intuition again, to trust that they have the answers within their own authentic self."   In 1998, Trish was diagnosed with Scleroderma, a rare form of Rheumatoid Arthritis that creates scar tissue inside of the body. Upon receiving her diagnosis, against the advice of her doctors, Trish refused all medications and decided to look for alternative healing options, such as diet and exercise; most powerfully drawn towards learning how healing the spirit can heal the body. Much of Trish’s healing journey was trial and error, yet within a very short period of time, she was able to not only stop the progression of the dis-ease, but to start to reverse the symptoms. She believes we may set our bodies up for dis-ease physically, through poor diet, etc. that how that dis-ease manifests will often be the result of our spiritual and emotional health.   "The Question Journey™ is a gorgeous self-discovery journal that provides powerful tools to help you remember& reclaim who YOU REALLY ARE."  Connect with Trish Bishop at "The Question Journey™

When Charmaine Hammond and her husband adopted Toby, a five-year-old Chesapeake Bay retriever, they figured he might need some adjusting time, but they certainly didn't count on what he'd do in the meantime. Soon after he entered their lives and home,   Toby proved to be a holy terror who routinely opened and emptied the hall closet, turned on water taps, pulled and ate things from the bookshelves, sat for hours on end in the sink, and spent his days rampaging through the house. Oddest of all was his penchant for locking himself in the bathroom, and then pushing the lid of the toilet off the tank, smashing it to pieces. After a particularly disastrous encounter with the knife-block in the kitchen— and when the couple discovered Toby's bloody paw prints on the phone—they decided Toby needed professional help. Little did they know what they would discover about this dog.     On Toby’s Terms has been a best seller, won an honorable mention at the Hollywood Book festival and was runner up in the Indie National Book Excellence Award and the Alberta Exporting Award. It is also in development to become a major motion picture and will be in theatres everywhere soon!     Learn more at On Toby's Terms.

Author of the #1 Best-Seller "Sixty-Seconds to Yes!", Don Spini personally conducts over 150 sales training sessions per year, making him the top sales coach in the nation. Don has been a successful sales professional and sales manager for the past 25 years. Fed up with the poor quality and content of available sales training for his teams he designed in 1995 what is known today as The PRO Force Sales Mastery and Influence "Sixty-Seconds to Yes" workshop. This simple yet powerful methodology shows participants how to create extreme interest in their product, service or ideas before they talk about their product, service or ideas. What his clients discovered is the methodology and skills were relevant in all aspects of their lives, not just in front of buyers. His participants came away with confidence in handling objections and conflict, directly resulting in better relationships, higher closing ratios and more revenue. The program became so popular that Don retired from corporate America at age 46 and started his own sales training company, Team PRO Force headquartered in Orange County CA. In less than a year his program became the number one sales training program in the market. Today Don has a team of sales professionals, consultants and trainers in seven locations marketing the program to companies and individuals across the U.S. Connect with Don Spini Today at Team Force Pro. com

Adrianna Larkin, Author of “Igniting the Sacred Fire, Reinventing Yourself at Any Age” shares her personal story of “reinvention” to a full-time entertainment career at age 50 against all odds and in the midst of great personal crisis that included a failed family business, dual unemployment, bankruptcy, & foreclosure.  Her message is one of hope and inspiration.   “So many of us—myself included—received messages when we were young from well intentioned parents, & teachers, telling us that we could not have what we wanted; that we needed to reach for a less lofty goal or seek a career other than the one we would choose for ourselves. As a result, most people believe their dreams have some sort of expiration date. Yet, it has been shown time and again that what we are drawn toward and inspired by, are the very things for which we have some skill or natural ability that we can leverage for our greatest success.” “We now understand the role that happiness plays in our performance at work, our physical well being, our relationships, and our longevity. Still we have a tendency to overlook the two options for creating that happiness: a reframing of our present circumstances or using the power we own to create new ones. I encourage people to do both and offer them tools to assist the process.” Adrianna beautifully demonstrates that nothing is an accident, and unlimited potential exists in each of us to live our true purpose.   Connect with Adrianna Larkin at The Sacred Fire Within.
