Part 2: CUTV News Radio Welcomes Back Jean Francois Morin of xpand

Posted December 21, 201800:30:49

Quebec City, Quebec – xpand is an international consulting, coaching and training consortium that specializes in helping organizations and their people find their calling and reach their full potential. Jean Francois Morin leads xpand Canada.“It’s all about growing to their next level of leadership, which is healthy leadership,” says Morin. “Healthy leadership to us is about developing self-leadership, team leadership and organizational leadership. Healthy leadership trickles down throughout the organization. That's our basic mission.”According to Morin, many organizations with a traditional authoritarian-based management model would do better letting in more inspiration. Organizations who design a shared value, co-responsible model of leadership, are more flexible and provide top level customer service experience.“The world is changing; we have to be fit and adapt. So wherever an organization is on the spectrum, we help it grow to the next level,” says Morin. “We believe in value-centered leadership, which is about building the leader’s character and competence. It's a growing process, of helping them identify how they can best contribute to the organization, considering the mission and the objectives and the strategic planning of the organization.”To help strategize for the future, xpand’s clients explore their values, talents, motivating circumstances through their history, in a creative life planning process designed to move on to the next steps in achieving mastery. Building healthy organizations is about intentionally designing.For more information on xpand, visit www.xpand.eu

But if you don't see the CEO live that way, the values don't mean anything. And it's not just the CEO, it's the people who report to the CEO who are also very important, because they manage thousands of people. So they need to be great role models for whatever the values of the company are.”“Although I work with CEOs, you don't have to be a CEO to use my process,” says Dr.Goldsmith. “Anyone can use this process to develop themselves because it relates to everybody.”For more information on Dr. Marshall Goldsmith, visit www.marshallgoldsmith.com

Part 1: CUTV News Radio spotlights Dr. C. Norman Shealy of Shealy Wellness

Posted August 9, 201800:31:06

Fairgrove, MO - Dr. C. Norman Shealy is the world’s leading expert in natural chronic pain relief solutions and the first physician to specialize in the resolution of chronic pain.“A holistic approach to pain has been my focus for these many, many years,” says Dr. Shealy. “I have treated well over 30,000 people who have been failed by conventional medicine.”A pioneer in developing safe and effective treatments for chronic pain, Dr. Shealy is considered the father of modern pain medicine. He is the inventor of both spinal cord stimulation and the TENS unit, both of which revolutionized the treatment of pain and remain the standard for managing chronic pain worldwide.“Before spinal cord stimulation, neurosurgeons would cut the spinal cord with a razor blade. It was barbaric,” recalls Dr. Shealy. “After I introduced the spinal cord stimulator, every neurosurgeon wanted to do the procedure. That was the beginning of what got me into pain.”50 years after the introduction of spinal cord stimulation, Dr. Shealy remains among the most forward-thinking physicians. Now 84, Dr. Shealy has passed the torch to Dr. Sergei Sorin to serve as medical director for Shealy Wellness and continue its legacy.“I’m still active. But the future needs someone to keep it going.”For more information on Dr. Norm Shealy, visit http://www.normshealy.com

Part 2: CUTV News Radio Welcomes Back Conscious Conception Expert Nina Ketscher

Posted June 28, 201800:31:26

Folsom, CA – Nina Ketscher specializes in conscious conception, reducing and regulating stress for women before, during and after pregnancy through each stage of their child's development.“Conscious conception is about both parents being aware that they are bringing a soul into the world. With that intention and focus, they're creating a child who is connected more consciously with themselves, who they are, what their purpose is in life,” says Nina. “When parents are conscious about conceiving a child, not only do the parents feel more connected and bonded with their child, but that child also feels their parents really wanted them. It can make a huge difference for how they experience relationships, to themselves and the world.”Nina works with couples and mothers, offering healing work prior to conception, addressing belief systems, patterns of behavior, to create an optimal environment for bringing a child into the world. Nina empowers parents to commit to mindful daily practices that keep them connected with themselves and whatever healing they need to do along the way.Nina blends somatic and prenatal and perinatal psychology, energy work and mantra meditation into her healing practice. According to Nina, conscious conception, pregnancy and birth can prevent, not only post-partum depression, but birth interventions and behavioral outcomes.“I think knowledge and practice is key. And this type of knowledge that I learned has been hidden for such a long time,” says Nina. “Clients say, ‘I don't even think about the problems I came in with anymore. I don't have those problems anymore."For more information on Nina Ketscher, visit www.yoursoulsspark.com
