WITH PROMISE TANGEMAN

When I surrender, when the fear comes and the thoughts come I say I trust you, God, acknowledging it is there and acknowledge God in this situation.
— Promise Tangeman
 

About Promise:

She lives in sunny California with her husband Brian and the pup who they affectionately call #thedogparker.

If we let it, our mental chatter will be something that robs us of our peace. The constant over thinking, and over analyzing. It’s exhausting — and in the end, really get’s us nowhere. When I asked Promise what her biggest takeaway has been during this season of her life she responded by saying that therapy has been something that changed her perspective on life. It’s kept her focus on the present, and helped her to ‘turn off her mind’.

What a concept right?

Honestly, I was so excited to talk to Promise. Her name literally at the top of my list when I decided to launch this podcast two years ago. A full circle moment. What I didn’t expect was to connect with her on such a deep level. A welcome surprise. Our conversation quickly became transparent and real, almost as if we were chatting over coffee in my living room.

Promise Tangeman is a boss in every sense, leading an exceptional team of designers at Go Live and the co-founder of Designer Vaca. She’s stylish, fun, and has a beautiful uniqueness about her. And she feels deep — and that comes across in this conversation. She shares with me her hope to one day become a mother and what her journey of infertility has been like. In turn, I share my hopes for marriage one day. And the tension of the in-between.

She lives in sunny California with her husband Brian and the pup who they affectionately call #thedogparker. This conversation is everything I hope for when I get the opportunity to share the story of a woman who lives bravely.

WITH ALEX STREET

Movement, this idea that you have to be moving in your life, you are going to feel limited and purposeless, everyone else is doing something better, movement makes you feel more present where you are, you are more aware of what is going on.
— Alex Street
 

About Episode:

The tables are turning on me and I’m going to be coached on the podcast today. And can I just say that I absolutely LOVED it! There is no one I would have rather have coach me then my friend Alex Street. I had the opportunity to meet Alex this past summer when we were both serving at a church of a mutual friend. We connected instantly over shared interests and passions for empowering others.

Alex is a natural born story teller, he’s identifies as Enneagram Seven which means he’s super fun to have around. He’s a proud dad and husband. When he’s not auditioning for an acting gig you may find him recording his own podcast called ‘Made For This’, or coaching a millennial helping them to discover what they are made to do, or speaking at an event. 

Grab a pen and paper because Alex is about to walk you step by step through a process that will help you to overcome your limiting beliefs.

071 | A Journey To Olympic Gold

WITH MEAGAN DUHAMEL

Meagan Duhamel Olympic Gold Medalist.png
When I was on the Olympic podium all I was thinking about was the journey.
— Meagan Duhamel

About Meagan:

At the age of three my guest today Meagan Duhamel already had big dreams for her life. She probably didn’t realize that she would be winning multiple Olympic medals at that age but by the time she was 14 she was serious enough about her career that she convinced her parents to let her move from her hometown of Lively Ontario to Barrie. It wasn’t the easiest transition but she was determined to continue her training as a skater. She started out as a singles skater but then switched to pairs, having two different partners. In 2010, Meagan thought her career might be coming to an end when she was unable to qualify for the Olympics. But shortly after she was introduced to Eric Radford who at the time seemed like an unlikely match.

The two went on to become Canadian legends. In 2018 two-time world champions Meagan Duhamel and her partner Eric Radford captured their seventh consecutive Canadian title, becoming one of the most decorated Canadian pair teams in history. A month later, then went on to win a Gold medal in the team event in Py (NK) and a Bronze medal in the pairs event. They are known to push the limits of their sport by challenging themselves to be better. Their signature element include death spiral, and quad throws. 

Duhamel and Radford continue to push the limits of the sport and are always challenging themselves to be better. With signature elements including stunning death spirals and quad throws, the strong and consistent pair continue to raise the bar season after season.

Meagan lives in Boucherville QC with her husband Bruno Marcotte who coincidentally is also her coach. Meagan studied holistic/naturpathic health and became a certified holistic nurtitionist in 2012. She became a vegan in 2008 and loves to share her love for nutrition and health. She also has two rescue dogs Theo and Mootae.

Life is not always as we think it will be. It’s definitely not perfect even if others perceive it to be. I’m excited to share my conversation with Hannah Marks with you because it will inspire you to live your life to the fullest no matter what comes your way.

Her second born was only a few weeks old when she passed out after feeding. Her skin was ashy and grey and Hannah knew that something was just not right with her baby girl London Elizabeth. The news she got from the doctor was scary and unbelievable. If London didn’t have heart surgery immediately she would not last through the night. Within moments everything changed for Hannah and her husband Robbie.

Hannah Marks is an independent sales director with a skin care and cosmetics direct sales company, leading women for 15 years. She has been married to Robbie for 16 years and they have two beautiful children, Will 9 and London Elizabeth 4.
