Welcome to Ever Better Today! This will be a daily show (Monday through Friday), and each episode will be ten minutes or less.
Background
I am living in the DC area
I am from the Rochester, New York area
I have a 22 year old son named Connor
I am recently divorced as of November 2021
I'm a super active person.
A little over seven years ago, I was diagnosed with breast cancer
Starting a Podcast
I listened to podcasts to get information about what breast cancer meant and what are the variations of it. I also listened to podcasts about different topics that were inspiring to me.
I started thinking, “it would be really cool for me to have a podcast of my own. I held podcasters on a pedestal. I actually ended up going to a camp called Camp Good Life Project.
The camp was sponsored by Jonathan Fields, who does the podcast, Good Life Project, which I highly recommend. It's one of my favorites.
A lot of podcasters went to this camp. So this is the first time I actually said out loud to another person that I wanted to become a podcaster. I wanted to create a podcast to inspire people the way I had been inspired when I was going through my Breast cancer journey.
I was having a one on one conversation with a guy who was doing a podcast, and he said, “give me your notebook.” He wrote down in my notebook, “buy this microphone… sign up for this service… do this thing… do this thing,” and he had about five items that I needed to do in order to become a podcaster.
Fast forward, and I created about 90 episodes of The ever better podcast, with the last episode created about three years ago.
As you listen to Ever Better Today, you’re going to see that it's Season Two of the ever better podcast, which builds on what I'm going to refer to as “season one” of the original, ever better podcast. Ever Better Today - Season Two is what I'm creating in 2022. I don't know what's going to happen after that, But I'm committing to 2022.
Becoming a Coach
In the original ever better podcast, I would interview people and they would say to me, “You are a coach. I feel like I've been through a really good coaching session. I realized I had always taken a coaching approach to my work. I became a manager at a really young age of 23. I learned that I just need to know how to work with the team and bring out the best in each person.
I started taking coaching clients on the side, I had a full-time job, and I was director of marketing at an insurance company. I was also raising Connor and was married at the time, so I had a very full life. Eventually, I left that corporate job (that was four years ago), and I became a full-time executive coach.
Coaching Today
I work with entrepreneurs who are growing their companies, and I help them to achieve whatever their goal is.
I'm not telling them exactly how to achieve that goal, although I do have a lot of input that tends to be helpful.
I am encouraging, and I am helping them to connect the dots and see what might be slowing them down.
I'm giving them a different perspective on everything that they're doing in their business and certain things related to their lives.
Sometimes they even refer to me as their life coach: I get into health, wellness, mental and physical health, social issues, social relationships, communications with family and friends, and whatever is important to the person.
I work with clients on a long term basis, and I really see the upward trajectory.

Ever Better Today- the topics
Here are some examples of topics you might see in the future:
Creating and maintaining a billion dollar mindset
You might not have a billion dollar net worth yet and you might not strive to be achieving a billion dollar net worth, and that's okay! The mindset and the things that billionaires do are really important and informative if we want to elevate our lives.
I want you to be able to achieve a mindset where you can grow your net worth to a billion dollars if that's of importance to you.
I already work with clients who have billion dollar net worths, and I know that they're finding value in the things that I'm sharing.
Growing your business to the next level
there's always something new to achieve.
stop, appreciate, admire, and look at those successes that we've achieved. That's super important!
in order to continue to feel vital, energetic, and charismatic, you want to always have the next goal that you're working towards.
Reframing events, ideas, messages, and circumstances
people come to me and say, “Oh, this thing happened to me. Oh, it's awful. Why me? Why me? Why me?”
your circumstances can be turned around so that you can see things in a positive light.
there is a way to make a positive difference and reframe what's happening so that we can be a positive contributor to change.
How you can better communicate with your friends, family, and co-workers
Executive presence.
Playing bigger.
and many more!!
