How often do you get to have a conversation with a woman who was born just a few years after the Titanic went down?  Today is that day.  Say hello to my mom, Betty Jean.  She is a spry 92-year-old woman with an interesting perspective on life.  From a trip down memory lane including her life as a child in the 1930’s and 1940’s to raising a family with her loving devoted husband Cosmo (my dad).  Betty shares what life was like generations ago and how solid family values shaped her journey.  Her story is one of triumph and sorrow that she accepts and trusts that her faith will continue to guide her. She has words of wisdom for the new generation.  She is the true American hero.

Even in the most powerful hurricane, there is a moment of peace in the eye. We find ourselves in a storm that is sure to change our way of life. We need leaders now more than ever. The youth fit that mold but for many aging Americans like me, we shiver at the thought of what todays 20-year-old is going to do to contribute to society. Amongst those that want to tear it down, there are some that still dream big and are committed to the American dream.
Meet Kevin Girardin. Kevin is a 21-year-old college student that I’ve known for 7 years. I’ve watched his transformation from insecure and anxious to confident and hopeful for a great future. Join us for an intimate conversation about life and the future from tomorrows next leader.

One thing is for certain; these shutdowns do not work.  If they did, then the situation would improve.  The SCIENCE tells us that over 70% of new infections come from the home.  The hypocrisy of those in charge is laughable.  Suraj and I chat about the effects of shutdowns and other attempts to CANCEL our civil liberties.

Sports have been a staple in America for years. If you live in the New England area like me, you know that the foundation of great sports lore is built around the Boston Red Sox. Join me in this conversation with Chris Valente, the director of marketing for the Boston Red Sox as we get an update on our beloved team. Chris discusses how sports have provided a haven for fellowship and entertainment allowing a modicum of escape from life’s challenges. When all else fails…Go Sox!!

Our lives have been uprooted and of course another shutdown looms.  How can another shutdown be good for us?  Regardless if they tell us it works (which we know it doesn’t, as many countries concur) what is the toll on human health, psychology and our social support systems?  Let’s not forget the forgotten, our children.  They’re being robbed of an education while their tender minds are running off the rails.  This will negatively affect their emotional wellness for a lifetime. All this chaos for a virus that they’re 99% likely to survive if you get it. It’s easier for middle age people who have already learned how to cope with adversity.

Our kids are looking for safety and stability but that’s not what they’re getting.  They will struggle forever and the next generation will inherit this emotional dysfunction.  It’s difficult to tell them that the government is in control of everything. Parents once reassured their kids that they live in a free country where speech is always protected by the constitution and education would provide them with a good paying job.  These assumptions are no longer the truth.  Government is getting bigger and thirstier for your blood and your money.  If you dare to speak up, you will be cancelled.  Nice message, huh?

There is definitely something else going on here.  Big tech, Hollywood elite and of course greedy bureaucrats in Washington are setting us up for the greatest takeover of democracy we’ve ever seen.  If you don’t believe me, then take it from Senate minority leader Chuck Schumer “Now we take Georgia and then we change America”.  Hold on tight folks.  This is going to be a bumpy ride.

This is part 2 of 2 of a sit down with Suraj, just chewing the fat over many of the difficult challenges that await us all.

Putting yourself in the right positive mindset to achieve your goals is certainly no secret.  It’s a shame that more people aren’t dialed in to thinking in a manner which bring them a positive outcome.   Unfortunately, there are many events in our environment over a lifetime that hijack the way we think.  Once you become the pessimist, you’re statistically going to live 5 years less than if you were an optimist.  When experiencing positive emotions, the brain responds by making a concoction of neurochemicals (endorphins, dopamine and oxytocin to name a few) which help you to feel good and stay healthy.  In 2020, the power of the positive has an enemy.  It’s the pandemic and all that goes with it. Join me and my buddy Suraj Patel as we chat about The Power of the Positive Mind and the challenges we face today.  We discuss some easy to implement strategies to help you cope more effectively.  Stay positive my friend.
