Mason, OH -- Dr. Turab Rai, a distinguished dentist, entrepreneur, and artistic influencer, has embarked on a mission that outclasses conventional realms of dentistry and education. Through his practice, Franklin Dental Care and Dentures, and his innovative platform, Turabify, Dr. Rai is working hard to redefine professional and personal development worldwide by placing an emphasis on holistic education and a community-centered approach. An Unconventional Journey to Dentistry Dr. Rai’s path to dentistry is as unique as his vision. Originally a computer science major, he was drawn towards ecology and microbiology which eventually aligned with his mother’s advice to pursue dentistry. His fascination with microscopic life forms influences his perspective on oral health, recognizing the profound role bacteria play in human biology. “When we understand how our smaller systems affect the larger organism, we can appreciate our own bodies differently,” explains Dr. Rai. This philosophy underpins his dental practice, where he emphasizes the importance of technique to maintain oral health. Aside from his medical career, Dr. Rai channels his creative energy into Turabify, a platform where his roles as an artist and musician are thriving. Having developed a penchant for abstract painting and music, he creates annual albums that serve as a psychological journal, expressing his journey through an auditory experience. Available on Spotify under “Turabify,” these works illustrate how art and science intertwine in his life. Cultivating Leadership and Community Beyond personal expression, Dr. Rai’s commitment to empowering the next generation of leaders is evident through his innovative internship programs. By collaborating with Franklin Dental Care and Dentures, these programs equip dental students with practical business skills and leadership training. The rigorous regimen includes 7:30 AM coaching calls and event hosting, fostering skills crucial for navigating the dynamic landscape of healthcare. “Doctors should be teachers,” asserts Dr. Rai, reflecting on the Latin root of the word “doctor.” Through mentorship and coaching, Dr. Rai words hard to fill the gaps in conventional education by offering tangible skills and experiences that transcend textbooks and classrooms. Dr. Rai is critical of the standardized approach to education. Through Turabify’s initiatives, he is committed to nurturing individual potential and fostering creative thinking. By networking young leaders with industry stalwarts, his mentorship programs provide invaluable insights and growth opportunities. One such initiative is the Bright Smiles Community Outreach Coalition, a non-profit project aimed at integrating preventative healthcare education into traditional educational systems. Recognizing the link between oral health and overall well-being, Dr. Rai’s mission is to make oral healthcare accessible and prioritized at a policy level. Innovations for a Healthier Society Franklin Dental Care and Dentures is at the forefront of community outreach, investing $25,000 monthly in dental kits and educational programs. Dr. Rai’s team partners with schools and religious centers to deliver essential resources and services to underserved populations, including those on Medicaid. His approach is forward-thinking: “If we can shift the Board of Education to prioritize preventative health, we will create a healthier society,” he says. With plans to broaden this initiative across various fields within healthcare, Dr. Rai envisions a comprehensive support network dedicated to prevention. About Franklin Dental Care and Dentures and Turabify Franklin Dental Care and Dentures offers comprehensive dental services with a focus on patient education and empowerment. Turabify, beyond a creative outlet, stands as a platform integrating science, art, and community service to nurture leadership, personal development, and societal change. Dr. Rai’s journey exemplifies the fusion of passion, creativity, and expertise, ensuring that each initiative is a step towards a more informed, connected, and healthier world. His visionary approach, rooted in understanding small-scale ecosystems and large-scale human dynamics, continues to pave the way for transformative change in both dentistry and education.

Ormond Beach, FL -- Cindi DuMond has a unique set of credentials with a common theme: helping people who are clearly in pain. She is an RN, a former Funeral Director, and a Certified Adult Chair ® Master Coach who supports & empowers people who are ready to regulate their emotions while on a journey of grief, loss, and/or trauma. In 2018, after many years of suffering, marriage counseling, a daughter's illness and subsequent disability, she discovered a model that finally helped her succeed on her own journey. Cindi was so enthralled, she became certified in that coaching style, and then launched a business focused on dealing with grief and loss (experiences that range from having your business fail, to kids leaving home for the first time, to miscarriage or abortion, to separating from a relationship, to the death of a loved one, or even due to a violent crime.) “People are made to think our emotions should be stifled. In truth, emotions are our best teacher. I knew that as a nurse. It is important, though, to express our emotions in a healthy way, whether that is through “chair work”, journaling, movement, mindfulness, a hobby, or anything that brings you peace and joy.” Cindi uses a variety of proven tools and techniques to guide people on how to emotionally regulate. The mainstay is The Adult Chair model , which was created by a therapist turned Coach, named Michelle Chalfant and is now a global success. The term is transparent: we all have different personalities inside us, ranging from the attention-seeking child, to the angry adolescent, to a poised adult, and every time we react to stimuli, such as a loss, we have a choice on where we are going to be when we react to it. Sitting in our Adult Chair yields the most optimal results. Cindi coaches clients on breaking the cycle of grief and loss, emotional regulation, navigating loss, and grief recovery. She also has expertise in generational grief: inherited patterns of mourning & grief passed down in the family.. All of these services are under the umbrella of Don’t Despair Coaching . Cindi is appearing on the radio as part of the Empowering Women series, and her mission is one of empowerment. She aims to empower people through her clinical experience, background, compassionate coaching, and proven methodology. She also believes that women and men grieve differently: women are better at pouring their hearts out over coffee with a girlfriend, while men are trained to think being emotional is a sign of weakness. Understanding and expressing emotion is part of the journey to health and inner peace. This is particularly impo [1] rtant when grieving, because grief is not linear as many think, but rather a cyclical process. We can at times go back to a place on our journey, or even feel stuck, and that is when knowing how to cope and regulate are most important. Helping people at tender crossroads was a goal Cindi formed early in life. She would ride along with her busy Father, a floral delivery driver by day, when he made deliveries to funeral homes, and saw what it was like for people dealing with feelings at a most vulnerable time. She vowed to support them and did in all of her career endeavors, which included years as a nurse guiding patients and their families on the use of in-home ventilator equipment along with all it takes to keep a chronically ill child at home. Today, Coaching is full time work, and the name of her practice, Don’t Despair , speaks volumes. Cindi lets clients know it is ok to feel angry one day and okay on another. But whenever we feel bad, we should give ourselves grace, and keep moving forward and try a “chair check in” to cultivate and support the Adult, to navigate challenges more successfully. This is a wonderful opportunity to learn from a woman who has gone from Nurse Cindi to a featured speaker at events. Cindi has helped over 1,000 individuals and families navigate grief and achieve transformational healing. She also serves as a suicide prevention gatekeeper and facilitates EFT tapping and breathwork sessions. Cindi sure will heal and enlighten us all with her knowledge, caring spirit and calming tools. For more information about Cindi and her work, please visit www.dontdespaircoaching.com or www.cindidumond.com You are also free to download one of Cindi’s two free guides: Developing Incredible Unbreakable Boundaries and the journal tHealing through grief: A 30- day Guided Journal For Emotional Healing & Growth both available https://www.dontdespaircoaching.com/toolbox…
 
Salem, MA - Renowned throughout the Salem community and beyond, Reverend Barbara Szafranski, affectionately known as The Salem Love Psychic, is inviting individuals to explore the mystical world of psychic readings and spiritual insights. With a unique journey that seamlessly blends practicality and spirituality, Barbara’s compelling narrative and expertise in psychic readings continue to captivate and inspire. A Journey from Numbers to the Unknown Reverend Barbara Szafranski’s path to becoming a distinguished psychic was anything but conventional. An accomplished accountant by trade, Barbara spent her early years entrenched in the financial world, holding degrees in business and psychology. Despite her logical, numbers-driven beginnings, Barbara always held a fascination for the mysterious and the unknown. “I’ve always been interested in the unseen realms,” Barbara shares. “Even before I realized my psychic abilities, I was drawn to the sky and the endless possibilities it symbolized.” It wasn’t until her thirties, amidst the complexities of marriage and motherhood, that Barbara began to experience vivid visions and inexplicable phenomena, marking the beginning of her spiritual awakening. Embracing the Spiritualist Lifestyle While navigating the challenges of early adulthood, Barbara found solace and inspiration in the spiritualist religion—not as a doctrine but as a transformative way of life. “It was a place I could freely explore the spiritual without the confines of traditional religion,” Barbara explains. Her early ventures into fortune-telling, followed by structured classes, cultivated her burgeoning psychic abilities. Under the guidance of mentors and through rigorous self-study, Barbara developed her skills in channeling and spiritual readings. Her commitment to spiritual growth led to leadership roles within her community, including serving as vice president and eventually president of her spiritualist church. There, she honed her abilities to a professional level, laying the groundwork for her eventual business endeavors. As a Priest in the Society of Melchizedek, Reverend Barbara is also a Reiki Master, Polarity Therapist, and Unified Healer. Founding Angelica of the Angels In her fifties, driven by a calling that could no longer be ignored, Reverend Szafranski boldly left behind her marriage and corporate career to embark on a new venture: offering psychic readings through her company, Angelica of the Angels, in downtown Salem. Nestled among the city’s famous witchcraft and spiritual shops, Angelica of the Angels quickly became a beacon for those seeking guidance and insight. “I’m not bragging, but stating a fact—I’m good at what I do,” Barbara asserts with the quiet confidence developed over years of study and practice. Her business thrived, bolstered by her deep knowledge, her genuine connection to spirit, and her ability to connect with clients on a profound level. Barbara’s life as a psychic has been filled with remarkable experiences that defy the ordinary. From witnessing apparitions to conducting powerful healings with the presence of Archangels, these extraordinary moments are testaments to her profound connection with the spiritual world. Her clients have experienced, firsthand, the accuracy and power of her readings and healing sessions. Publishing “Burnt Toast and Oranges” Barbara’s memoir, “Burnt Toast and Oranges,” delves into her unique life experiences, offering readers a glimpse into the world of an unlikely and gifted psychic. The book captures her adventures and the many spiritual insights she has gained—a must-read for those interested in the mystical arts and the life of one of Salem’s most respected psychics. Legacy and Continuing Work Although Barbara has since retired from her shop, her passion for spiritual work has not waned. At 89, she remains active, conducting readings and teaching classes for those eager to learn from her wealth of knowledge. “I may have retired my shop, but I continue to embrace and share my gifts,” Barbara states. Her commitment to supporting and guiding others on their own spiritual journeys remains steadfast, as she offers services like readings, seances, weddings, and house clearings. As she looks to the future, Reverend Barbara Szafranski is filled with a sense of fulfillment and ongoing curiosity about the spiritual path ahead. Reflecting on her life’s journey, she says, “I know there’s something after this life. Whatever it is, I embrace it with love and readiness.” About Reverend Barbara Szafranski With over three decades of experience, Barbara Szafranski is a beloved and highly skilled psychic based in Salem, Massachusetts. Known for her compassionate approach and extraordinary intuitive abilities, she has guided countless individuals through life’s challenges using her profound spiritual insight.

Pearl City, HI – Our guest has made it her mission to encourage others that seeking help for mental health should not be stigmatized. “We have all been sad and we have all been scared,” she assures. In addition, she has also been fighting the good fight when it comes to the treatment of mental health patients. While it is currently an uphill battle for her, she remains hopeful. This is the story of Dr. Doreen Fukushima. Dr. Doreen Fukushima is a respected psychiatrist and the founder of Ho'ola Pono. Based on the island of Oahu in Hawaii, Ho'ola Pono, which is Hawaiian for “to make well”, offers unique psychiatry services in addition to standard talk therapy. One specialty treatment that Dr. Fukushima offers is Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS). “It’s an FDA-approved procedure that treats depression, anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive disorder without medication,” explains Dr. Fukushima. “It’s a magnet that goes outside of the head, and it gives an electrical pulse, similar to an MRI machine. It wakes up the neurons of the frontal part of the brain. Usually with depression, anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive disorder, the neurons are not functioning the way they are supposed to. It’s a safe and effective way to jump start the neurons to have them function the way they are supposed to be working.” Another specialty treatment that Dr. Fukushima also offers is Spravato. Also known generically as Esketamine, Spravato is a form of Ketamine, which is an anesthetic medication. One of the unique side effects when people received intravenous Ketamine is that they would wake up very happy. Some have used Ketamine off-label to treat depression. However, it was not covered by insurance and is administered intravenously. Janssen (Johnson & Johnson) eventually created Esketamine, which is a nasal spray. The results are very good in that it helps people get through their past traumas and significant depression. “This makes people feel less guarded and more open to talking, when they are dealing with their traumas,” summarizes Dr. Fukushima. “It also improved the malleability of the brain.” “Very few insurances cover it, but you can fight to get it covered,” she notes. Dr. Fukushima has been enduring considerable legal difficulties regarding the insurance coverage surrounding the use of Spravato as a treatment for her patients, which was approved by the FDA. She even suspects that there may even be some corruption involved regarding the Hawaii Medical Service Association (HMSA) and some legal firms that handle healthcare disputes. The FDA approved Spravato as a mental health treatment in 2019, and HMSA approved its usage in 2020. Also in 2020, Dr. Fukushima received clearance from HMSA to use Spravato as a treatment for her patients. After about a year-and-a-half, Dr. Fukushima gets a nasty letter from HMSA saying that she allegedly used the wrong billing codes and that HMSA would like a full refund of the money they paid her to provide all of these services. Dr. Fukushima maintains that she used the right billing codes, as instructed by HMSA. Dr. Fukushima eventually got an attorney, and the firm called Cades Schutte, assured her that she was compliant with the instructions from HMSA. With the law firm, they went to arbitration to which one of the attorneys working on Dr. Fukushima’s behalf had a panic attack. This led to a chain of unfortunate events where the law firm forced Dr. Fukushima to work with the attorney, despite her reservations. “I lost as badly as anyone could lose,” states Dr. Fukushima. The arbitrator who also happened to be a friend of one of the attorneys in the law firm ruled entirely against her. Much of the corruption that Dr. Fukushima observes is the errors on the part of HMSA, the law firm she hired, who later abandoned and attacked her. The law firm filed a temporary restraining order against her when she asked for help as their poor performance cost her almost $500,000. This poor performance from the law firm also resulted in her being cut off from reimbursements from her biggest patient population – military families who have Tricare insurance. Currently, she has not been paid for eighteen months despite having authorizations for every Tricare patient. However, she continues to treat them and pay for these treatments out of her own pocket. She was also recently put on restriction from Kaiser Permanente after trying to advocate for them to cover Spravato for one of their patients for the first time in Hawaii, even though it is covered by Kaiser Permanente in California. Despite all of that, she remains optimistic regarding the future of her psychiatry practice. Ultimately, she would like to expand – most notably by getting the funds together to purchase her own building. “I want to build something that no one has ever seen before,” Dr. Fukushima notes. Included in this building would be her own pharmacy, a trampoline room, a food court, and even a patient store. “Despite the craziness, I overall love everything that I do in psychiatry,” declares Dr. Fukushima. “It’s a fascinating field.” “There shouldn’t be a stigma with psychiatry,” Dr. Fukushima concludes. “You should come to your psychiatrist when you are having mental health struggles. It is not a weakness to see a psychiatrist. It’s a strength” For more information, please visit https://hoolaponotmshawaii.com/…
 
Denton, TX -- Kristine Meyer Skiff is a woman who has made lemonade from lemons as they say. Being a parent to not one, but several children with special needs, limited her choices for a career outside of the home. She always had a love of writing, though, and one day put all of her ideas down into a novel Bells,, which instead of a romance, turned out to be more like a mystery or thriller title. When a mother Kristine knew in the area read the book, she saw a real talent, a knack for language and seamless story telling. And so, she invited Kristine to become part of her company that handled ghost writing and publishing projects. Kristine eventually became a full partner in the firm and a few years ago, the partner shut down and Kristine collaborated with several team members and clients and built a newer and more fully scoped business. It carries the name Gift An Author , a name from the ghostwriting days that she had a marketing identify for. This name signifies how much simpler an author’s life could be when someone is handling all the details for a writer -- things like getting an ISBN number, editing the manuscript for optimal results, getting your book into bookstores and up on retail sites like Amazon.com, finding a designer or illustrator, and promoting the book. Kristine’s team does all that and more, each writer, editor or designer carefully matched to the author and their particular genre or style. For instance, when ghostwriting a book about law or real estate, you’ll need someone who knows that industry in your corner. Gift An Author provides comprehensive publishing services, author coaching, marketing services, and advice on how to truly capture reader’s attention and create an engaging experience for them. It is the same kind of care that a larger publishing house would provide a known name like Grisham or Hemingway but lavished on independent and little known authors. The organization was established in 2018 with a mission to support aspiring authors with the narratives—in a range of genres that include fiction, how-to, memoirs, self-help, cookbooks, and children’s stories. Kristine is an accomplished writer who has ghost written over 20 books, many of which were Amazon bestsellers. One title was on Kundalini Yoga, which taught her the way mindset and connections to the universe can impact the busy life of a mother, writer and entrepreneur. Kristine has a great record of accomplishment with other authors and categories. “I get such satisfaction from helping people tell their stories. We all have one and it can have an impact on other people’s lives. Once they know you, there is no room for stereotypes or hate.” Kristine also enjoys matching up the talent to the team. She says every book has at least two editors and the more pairs of eyes on something the better. She has a roster of editors available to do deep edits, and then a clean-up and polish. Then it goes to formatting. The author and design team make decisions together about the cover of each book. It is all part of a process she calls author-first publishing. Today, Kristine’s children range in age from 20 to 24 and they are living with her while working toward various stages of independence. Talking about what life was like when they were hi-energy tots diagnosed with Autism and later some mood disorders is a huge part of her own story, revealed in the first of the two podcasts. That one was dedicated to her backstory of life and work; the second installment covered the future of the publishing organization and all that is entailed in helping an author and their book become a true success.

Ludlow, MA - Lloyd Askew, a technical consultant with over 40 years of experience in the wire and cable industries, has been included in the distinguished Marquis Who’s Who directory. This honor acknowledges his enduring contributions and expertise in the field, particularly in the realms of electrical wire and cable design, manufacturing processes, and quality assurance systems. After receiving his Bachelor of Science degree in Chemical Engineering from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 1974, Askew embarked on a career that initially focused on plastic extrusion, particularly the production of rigid plastic pipes. His transition from chemical engineering to a leading role in the wire and cable sector was made possible by his ability to transfer knowledge gained from one industry to another, ultimately influencing developments in the manufacturing processes used today. Career Highlights and Industry Contributions Lloyd Askew’s career began in the 1970s, but it was his move into the wire and cable field that defined his legacy. In the electrical wire and cable industries, Askew is known for his in-depth knowledge and pioneering approach. His expertise spans the electrical, systems and chemical engineering aspects of wire and cable making, encompassing the unique challenges and solutions related to the materials and methods used in both fabrication and application. “While most of what I learned about wire and cable during my formal education amounted to just a few textbook pages, my career in this industry has been profoundly enriched through mentors and hands-on experience,” explains Askew. His work, particularly after the wide-spread introduction of fiber optics in the 1970s and 1980s, reshaped the landscape, proving that copper wire had enduring potential and was more capable than previously thought. Despite predictions of copper’s decline, Askew’s work illustrated its sustained viability and adaptability, solidifying its role alongside growing fiber optic technologies. Askew’s notable achievements include leading technical teams to success in competitive challenges such as the one initiated by a Pennsylvania Electric Power Company for identifiable underground power cables. His work led to the development of a groundbreaking cable design that features a distinct three-red-stripe pattern, winning his company a prestigious two-year no-bid required contract. Additionally, Askew played a pivotal role in the collaborative efforts that reduced premature field failures of power cables through testing and manufacturing innovations, which impacted industrial standards globally. Philosophy and Continuing Work Askew remains driven by the complexities and continual learning opportunities presented by the wire and cable industry. “Every day is a chance for discovery,” he remarks. “The industry’s ongoing evolution ensures that there is always something new to learn or a challenge to overcome.” Besides his professional contributions, Askew is also committed to community service. As a member of Alpha Chi Rho, he participates in charitable work and engages in various volunteer activities with Freemasonry. This dedication to service extends beyond his professional life, impacting his local community positively. While his achievements have granted him a rightful place in Marquis Who’s Who, Askew is not resting on his laurels. He offers his technical consultation services worldwide, helping companies on both small and large scales, from single phone calls on wire specifications to long-term projects involving international market penetration strategies. Enduring Impact and Future Directions Looking forward, Askew will continue leveraging his wealth of knowledge to address the industry’s pressing needs, including sustainability and innovation. He stresses the significance of recycling copper and other metals to preserve these valuable resources for future use. Design of Experiments and Statistical Methods are important tools for product and process improvement to understand the underlying factors that contribute to positive (or negative) observed outcomes. “My ideal client is one who seeks to improve their products through innovation and quality enhancement,” he shares. By helping companies understand and remedy field failures, Askew assures that the practice of continuous improvement remains a central tenet of his business philosophy. About Lloyd Askew A highly respected consultant in the wire and cable industry, Lloyd Askew offers unmatched expertise that spans four decades. His diverse background, spanning chemical and systems engineering disciplines along with the technical, quality assurance and manufacturing sides of wire and cable, positions him as a sought-after consultant for companies working to innovate and excel in this dynamic field.

Minneapolis, MN - Mischa Sorensen, MSN, RN, NI-BC, a seasoned nurse and healthcare technology consultant with over 23 years of experience, is revolutionizing the integration of technology in patient care. As a third-generation nurse with a master’s degree in Nursing Informatics, Sorensen is uniquely equipped to bridge the gap between clinical practice and technology, enhancing healthcare delivery systems nationwide. With a career rooted in bedside nursing, expanded through advanced education in nursing informatics, Sorensen has cultivated an impressive portfolio spanning clinical program creation, data analytics, and systems implementation. Her work has enhanced healthcare regions across the United States, helping healthcare systems optimize workflows to benefit both clinicians and patients. “As healthcare continues to evolve, the need for effective technology integration becomes increasingly critical,” Sorensen explains. “My mission is to foster an environment where technology supports, rather than hinders, clinical workflows, thereby improving patient outcomes and reducing clinician burnout.” In her previous roles, Sorensen demonstrated leadership by managing teams of data architects and informaticians to create and implement standard data sets based on regulatory and outcome measures. These efforts resulted in significant clinical and financial improvements, evidencing her capability to impact broad systems and practices. In her consulting role, Sorensen focuses on several key areas: • Workflow Optimization: Streamlining clinical operations through tailored technology solutions that align with specific clinical practices. • Data Analytics: Driving decision-making with robust analytics solutions that go beyond traditional electronic medical record data, encompassing a wide range of technology touch points. • Change Management: Ensuring smooth technology transitions by balancing innovative tech solutions with existing clinical practices, prioritizing both security and utility. A central component of Sorensen’s practice is addressing the sensitive nature of healthcare information. “Security is paramount given the vulnerability of healthcare data to cyber threats. My work involves advising healthcare systems on secure data-sharing practices that protect patient information while supporting efficient care delivery across locations.” Sorensen acknowledges the challenges healthcare faces in technology adoption, particularly the balance between usefulness and security. “One of the biggest hurdles is ensuring that technology enhances the clinician-patient interaction without compromising privacy or adding unnecessary complexity,” she notes. Sorensen’s commitment to education is demonstrated through her teaching engagements, lectures, and presentations at healthcare seminars. Her future goals include advancing virtual nursing solutions, which hold promise for increasing efficiency addressing non-critical patient inquiries, thereby allowing nurses to focus on direct, quality patient care. “There remains a delicate balance between the human touch and technological support in healthcare,” Sorensen asserts. “While virtual nursing can handle preliminary queries, it is crucial that hands-on care is not replaced, but rather, enhanced in a complimentary way.” Through her consultancy, Sorensen works hard to bring innovative solutions, empowering healthcare leaders to think outside the box and embrace change. Her clients primarily comprise hospital system leaders seeking to improve organizational processes and technology utilization. Sorensen candidly discusses the broader implications of healthcare technology. “With healthcare lagging in technology adoption due to its complexity and sensitivity, there’s constant challenge in marrying technological advancements with practical and ethical patient care standards,” she says. Sorensen’s work promises to be a valuable asset for healthcare systems aspiring to navigate the complexities of healthcare IT while prioritizing superior patient care and clinician satisfaction. As she embarks on this journey, her objective is clear: to leave the healthcare landscape better equipped to handle the demands of modern-day care, more integrated in its use of technology, and ultimately more patient-centered.

Richardson, TX - Degree Solutions Group, a pioneering educational consulting firm founded by Cody J. Ph.D. is excited to announce its groundbreaking approach to supporting doctoral students through educational, career, and life coaching. With two-thirds of doctoral candidates failing to complete their programs, Degree Solutions Group steps in as a unique support for academic success and career readiness. Dr. Cody J. Arvidson, a distinguished Doctor of Philosophy, addresses the alarming statistic that only thirty-three percent of doctoral students successfully defend and earn their degrees. Her insights reveal the complex challenges and systemic flaws contributing to these failures, including inadequate institutional support, bureaucratic hurdles, and the lack of effective mentorship from faculty members. Dr. Arvidson identifies the hurdles faced by doctoral candidates as part of a problematic “love triangle” involving students, professors, and institutions. “Students often face blame for lacking skills or motivation, but research indicates the need for comprehensive support systems from academic institutions,” says Dr. Arvidson. She points out that instead of receiving constructive guidance, students often meet more bureaucratic challenges, exacerbating their journey toward degree completion. Addressing Institutional Failures Degree Solutions Group highlights the gap in mentorship and support within many doctoral programs. Dr. Arvidson observes, “The role of the dissertation committee often becomes more about gatekeeping than genuine peer review and mentorship, leaving students without essential resources to navigate academic challenges effectively.” Dr. Arvidson further outlines systemic issues within higher education, noting that under pressure from ‘publish or perish’ demands, professors often fall short of delivering adequate academic guidance. This lack of involvement and mentorship, compounded by political dynamics similar to those in high-stakes environments like Congress, leaves students under prepared for critical examinations and dissertation work.

TAMPA, FL -- Doctor John E Silvia is a man with a message we all need to hear right now. In post-election America, when the top issue to debate was the state of the economy, he has expertise that can clear it all up and help us understand where things are headed. That’s because John E Silvia is an economist with a PhD and many, many years of experience-- gathered from a stellar career that included several banks and even Capitol Hill. Today, John runs his own financial advisory firm Dynamic Economic Strategy . John is recognized as the author of 4 books and has also taught college courses at top-named universities. He is recognized for advising investment managers, bankers, and other financial experts around the world. He has worked as a Chief Economist, a role he will explain on the show, and is known for his insights on analysis, forecasting and macroeconomic trends. John began his college studies in history but a flair for math led a counselor to suggest a new path. He majored in statistics and never looked back. He achieved a Bachelor’s at Northeastern in Boston, a Master’s degree from Brown, then went off into the Army and returned to Boston in the1970s where he earned his PhD and qualified as a professor. “There are two parts to being a chief economics officer One is to figure out which topics are of most interest to the banks and their clients. You direct the research and then develop a picture of the economy from all that data. The second part is advising investors based on currency, equity, interest rates and other key trends.” John ‘s interest in economics is such a passion he could not simply retire. He now runs a consultancy providing similar analysis and information to financial advisors and private companies, such as a large trucking company. He also writes a newsletter weekly and does presentations and public speaking. People always want to hear his views on where the economy is going; the indicators of inflation, and what’s happening in the banking industry. “There are a lot of economic matters that hinge on Congress and World Leaders. They are the players on the other side of the table. During the election debates the economy had a big appeal to voters -- who all wanted to hear things might get better. Each candidate saw things differently, but in truth, an economic crisis is not the same thing as the rising price of eggs or gas.” In his upcoming show John is going to talk about the books he authored, some geared towards niche audiences and some that anyone can learn and benefit from. His most recent was Financial Markets and Economic Performance: A Model for Executive Decision Making . The book is not a how to get rich guide, it is about the fundamentals of finance and very grounded in his university teachings. John feels he still has much to contribute and has watched friends, fellow professors, and other coworkers try to do something different than economics work and then end up unsatisfied. He believes he has a unique combination of experiences to offer, having seen how economic analysis applies to different areas like business, banking, and government. He deeply understands how different economic circumstances roll out. He can easily look at any number, such as the mortgage interest rate, and discuss what it means for Americans. Doctor John recently shared some of his insights on Bloomberg radio, a leading finance channel, and looks forward to being on Close Up Radio once again. His speaking talents are as in-demand as his consulting services and asset guidance. For more information visit https://www.johnesilvia.com/…
 
Milwaukee, WI - Better Results Personal Training, a revolutionary personal training company based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, is excited to announce a fresh, holistic approach to fitness that challenges long-standing industry norms. Founded by Doug Bates, Better Results Personal Training sets itself apart by redefining what it means to be fit and healthy. Health Is Not a Number: The Better Results Doug Bates Philosophy In an industry traditionally focused on metrics, such as how much you can lift or the number of squats you perform, Doug Bates offers a different perspective. “One of our central questions is, ‘Do you know what health looks like?’” Bates challenges. “It is fundamentally generated at the cellular and sub-cellular levels, and relies on organ and gland and hormonal health—and is massively influenced at and by the level of perception and conscious awareness.” Doug emphasizes, “It is a living conscious avatar system” —not simply a ‘biological mass of tissues disconnected from the environment. It is connected to larger scale source energy factors. It’s not about the lifting numbers—it’s about what you bring to your workout, your ability to make informed choices, and your readiness to try new things, even if it’s as simple as remembering to simply breathe more fully, get more quality sleep, clear toxins, change your environment or your mindset mid-workout or mid-day, or deciding wisely to open your spine with a forward fold when it feels right.” The Near Infinite Pillars of Health Better Results Personal Training emphasizes an understanding of health that extends beyond physical prowess. Doug outlines a vision of comprehensive wellness that addresses the rarely discussed cerebrospinal fluid health, lymphatics, respiration, posture, brain and nervous system health, digestive health, and mitochondrial health—– and then adds his own deeper variation of “critically informed free-style decision making,” and “divinely intelligent flow state mindset”—key elements often overlooked in traditional fitness regimens. Doug argues, “True fitness must both build and recognize these and other foundational elements.” Noting, although these often complex fundamentals are essential, “Health can also come from simple activities—sometimes, potting one plant, taking an immersive walk in a cleaner natural environment, removing a toxin like glyphosate from one’s life, or performing a gentle forward fold can be more beneficial than intense physical exertion.” Doug passionately speaks about the role of environment when achieving optimal health. As wellness extends beyond physical activity, Doug encourages careful consideration of factors such as air quality, dietary choices, interpersonal social and work relationships, and even varied ideal lighting exposure. With advice to invest in high-quality air purifiers and create a nurturing environment with the correct balance of colors, lighting, and high air quality. Doug emphasizes, “If your surroundings aren’t conducive to health, no amount of exercise will compensate.” Doug’s approach acknowledges the complexity of individual health, especially the interaction between environmental factors and internal wellness. “A disrupted gut or a deficiency in certain nutrients, like vitamin D, any key mineral, key amino acids like glutamate, or essential fatty acids can impede fitness progress significantly,” Doug notes. His goal is to enlighten clients on these along with how broader environmental issues, such as pesticides, VOCs, or other toxins affect personal health. Through his unique methodology, Doug believes every individual has the capacity to achieve exceptional intelligence and health, provided they are equipped with the right knowledge and tools. “Everyone is capable of nurturing a remarkable IQ,” asserts Doug, emphasizing that educational empowerment, along with precise action taking, can transform clients’ lifestyles dramatically. Then adding, “So too with “EQ”, and “SQ”, and the other intelligences likewise growing along with “IQ-!,” he emphasizes. “Building true and meaningful health means building far more than the body.” Creating Exceptional Individuals Commitment to education and empowerment demonstrates Better Results Personal Training’s long-term vision. According to Doug, “My clients have noted they frequently become the brightest individuals in their circles, gaining exceptional insights even at the age of 60 and beyond, which sparks remarkable personal development, contributing immensely to their business and other relationships. And of course, with that set of gains, desire grows for even more investment. It is a great loop that impacts communities. Humanity grows in knowledge and vitality. It impacts generations. When individuals benefit, so too does the whole,” he concludes. About the Journey with Doug Bates For those who are not just in Milwaukee—but for those anywhere in the United States or with access to the internet—ready to embark on a transformative wellness journey, Better Results Personal Training offers an often challenging yet still clear path paved with knowledge, empowerment, and holistic health. Doug extends an invitation to those capable and desirous to partake in a visionary mindset that looks beyond traditional fitness boundaries to address the fullest individual needs of each human—and to set the bar higher than most ever imagined. Find him at one of his four platforms on Facebook for insights into his extremely divergent and yet ingeniously interconnected training philosophy and join the engaging discussions about redefining fitness standards in today’s world.

Hummelstown, PA - Pediatric leukemia research is manifesting hope under the direction of Dr. Sinisa (Sunny) Dovat, a distinguished pediatric oncologist and scientist dedicated to innovative cancer research. Based at Penn State University, Dr. Dovat is making transformative contributions in the fight against pediatric leukemia by focusing on some of the most promising research avenues available today, from targeted therapies to genetic discovery. Dr. Dovat’s journey into the fight against cancer was inspired by the courage of his young patients during his residency. Decades of dedication have now placed him at the forefront of cancer research, focusing on a gene instrumental in preventing and triggering leukemia in children. By unraveling the complexities of this gene, named Icarus, Dr. Dovat’s work has paved the path for novel therapies that promise to enhance survival rates and improve outcomes across various demographics. A Multifaceted Approach to Pediatric Leukemia Leukemia remains a formidable challenge, being the most common childhood cancer. However, strides in medical research have resulted in significant increases in survival rates. Today, 80% of children who receive a cancer diagnosis can expect positive outcomes, with survival rates for acute lymphoblastic leukemia, the most prevalent form of childhood leukemia, reaching an impressive 90%. Despite these improvements, Dr. Dovat acknowledges the sobering reality that 10% is still too many lives lost. Dr. Dovat describes his role as unique due to his dual focus on both patient care and laboratory research. His work shines in the development of targeted therapies aimed at addressing critical genetic anomalies resulting from Ikaros ( IKZF1 ) gene dysfunction. Trained at UCLA and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Dr. Dovat’s research efforts have been integral in designing therapies targeting signaling pathways derailed by these genetic disruptions, with upcoming trials set to commence at Penn State University. The significance of Dr. Dovat’s research is amplified by two discoveries: 1. Identification of Ikaros deletion as one of the main causes of health disparity in B-cell pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia in Hispanic/Latino children. Dr. Dovat and his team found that the deletion of the Ikaros gene occurs more frequently in cells of B-cell pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia among Hispanic/Latino children, a finding that has profound implications in understanding health disparities linked to leukemia. This discovery paved the way to improve diagnosis of high-risk leukemia in Hispanic/Latino children, but also opened an opportunity to identify therapeutic targets to improve treatment for this disease. 2. The discovery of Ikaros Deficiency Syndrome—This condition, stemming from the congenital deletion or mutation of the Ikaros gene, is associated with immune system impairment as well as with higher incidences of high-risk leukemia among children. Collaborating with colleagues across California, Texas, and Puerto Rico, Dr. Dovat is examining genetic and epidemiological factors contributing to this disparity, with the goal of developing inclusive treatment strategies that cater to diverse genetic backgrounds. Through the use of cutting-edge technologies, including advanced genetic sequencing and epigenomic studies, Dr. Dovat seeks to uncover the molecular intricacies that could provide targeted interventions, revolutionizing how childhood leukemia is approached across different populations. Continuing the Fight with Purpose and Hope Dr. Dovat’s work underscores his dedication to evidence-based interventions that provide families with concrete hope. He acknowledges the parents’ natural instincts to search for ways to prevent or easily detect leukemia and stresses the importance of guilt-free acceptance that such malignancies are often beyond our control. Educating families that childhood leukemia is largely indiscriminate ensures that they focus on effective pathways to recovery rather than self-blame. Moreover, Dr. Dovat credits the support from the Four Diamonds Foundation, which has been instrumental in backing vital research and clinical trials that foster advancements in treatment and diagnostics at Penn State University. The foundation’s commitment allows ongoing research that translates into improved patient outcomes and the potential for innovative therapies on the horizon. Looking Ahead Despite the somber realities of pediatric cancer, Dr. Dovat’s research is lined with optimism. The interconnectedness of cutting-edge research and clinical innovation promises a bright future where discoveries will continue at a rapid pace. Dr. Dovat is committed to steering his research towards addressing historical disparities in healthcare, focusing keenly on regions like California and Puerto Rico, which could provide insights applicable to a global population. Dr. Dovat’s expertise marks a beacon of leadership in the global fight against childhood cancer. With collaborations extending beyond borders, his work not only supports immediate clinical applications but also contributes to long-term strategies that promise profound changes for pediatric oncology. About Dr. Sinisa (Sunny) Dovat, PhD, MD Dr. Sinisa (Sunny) Dovat, PhD, MD, is a physician-scientist specializing in pediatric oncology, focusing on innovative research in leukemia. Affiliated with Penn State University, Dr. Dovat combines clinical excellence with groundbreaking research to improve survival outcomes in children affected by leukemia. His international collaborations and partnerships are paving the way for new therapies and greater understanding of genetic influences in pediatric cancer.
