The Sunday Set Up Ep. 1: Are You Stuck or in Crisis?

There are so many heroes around the world doing what they can to help right now. Dimitria Murphy is one of them. She is a long time friend of mine and native of Somerville, MA and has owned a restaurant in Somerville since 2012. Her restaurant is Daddy Jones Bar and they are doing something incredible during this time of crisis. They started a go-fund-me to help local families with food donations. I know we’re all taking social distancing very seriously, but a lot of us still want to help. Dimitria is providing us some inspiration and we’re also going over updates from the White House and around the world, and providing a list of ways to manage your quarantine anxiety.

**ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED ON 03/18/20** Meghan Trainor is a Grammy-winning pop singer known for  hits like "Lips Are Moving" and "All About That Bass." Today, she opens up like never before talking, VMA’s and why she’s never been, being a boss & learning how to fire people, how the award shows can be rigged and how her husband, Daryl Sabara supports her through it all. She spent her childhood surrounding herself with music, learning to play various instruments and writing her own songs. As her career began to blossom she began writing music for other artists like Fifth Harmony, Jennifer Lopez, Rascal Flats and Jason Derulo. There are so many special things about Meghan, but I have a deep respect for the way she has built such a massive platform and stayed healthy while spreading so much love and positivity even in such a demanding industry, and the relationship she has with her family is so amazing.

Kathy Giusti was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a rare blood cancer, in 1996. She was told she couldn’t expect to live much more than three or four years. Two years later she started the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation. Kathy cracked the health care system, has beaten the odds, and advanced research and treatments like never before. Life expectancy for many patients has doubled. She is a true boss when it comes to leadership and treating your healthcare with a business mindset. There’s so much we’re going to learn from her today on leadership, healthcare, and where we are with multiple myeloma research and her foundation.

Making a decision for yourself, even when everyone is telling you not to, is not an easy task...especially when from the outside it looks like you’re at the height of your career. Today’s guest chose to be bold and listen to her instincts and that’s something we can all learn from. Cathy Kelly is a Mensa International–certified journalist, podcaster and red carpet interviewer. Cathy gained notice among the WWE Universe as a host of AfterBuzz’s weekly recap programs for Monday Night Raw and WWE NXT. She officially joined the WWE as a host in 2016, but just this month has made the decision to make some changes. I’m so excited to sit down with her and discuss her hosting career, the decision she’s made and how she’s stayed healthy and confident while working hard towards her dreams.

Get back to you. For one reason or another we lose sight of our true, authentic selves over time, but it’s not permanent if we work on it. Today, we have Michele Meiche-a spiritual guide who’s at the leading forefront of meditation, mindfulness and spiritual awakening-to teach us how to get back to self, what steps to take, what it should feel like and how to navigate indecisiveness and be more decisive in our day to day. Michele also talks about retrogrades, what they are and what to do when we enter a retrograde, like the one that’s happening right now.
