    2025/12/01
    If your self-care has felt like an afterthought this year, this episode will show you why, and how, to change that.In this honest solo episode, Dr. Amna Shabbir shares the six self-care decisions that transformed her mental health, physical wellbeing and clarity in 2025. These are not the usual “spa day” strategies. They are the hard, uncomfortable choices high achievers often avoid: saying no to incredible opportunities, stepping away from roles that cause moral injury, investing in real accountability for health, protecting your energy online, creating space for reflection and developing radical clarity about your goals.Dr. Shabbir walks through the personal stories behind each decision, why they were necessary, how they challenged her identity as a high achiever and how these practices can help you reduce burnout, make aligned decisions and build sustainable wellbeing.If you're craving boundaries, clearer priorities, more ease and a healthier relationship with success, this episode is a roadmap.Episode TakeawaysSaying no protects your time, energy and long-term wellbeing even when the opportunity is good.Leaving roles that no longer align prevents moral distress and keeps you connected to your values.Having accountability for your health creates consistency and makes sustainable habits possible.Being intentional with social media helps protect your mindset, focus and emotional clarity.Making space for reflection slows life down and helps you make grounded decisions.Getting radical clarity on your goals reduces overwhelm and keeps you aligned with what truly matters.✨SPECIAL END OF YEAR FREE VIRTUAL OFFERS BY DR.

  • Ep 40. Powered by Special Abilities: Gabi Angelini’s Movement Changing Lives Nationwide - Power of Giving Series

    Ep 40. Powered by Special Abilities: Gabi Angelini’s Movement Changing Lives Nationwide - Power of Giving Series
    2025/11/24
    What happens when you give people a chance?Our guests this week are the remarkable mother–daughter team Gabi and Mary Angelini, founders of Gabi’s Powered by Special Abilities, a nonprofit redefining employment, dignity, and purpose for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.Gabi, who has Down syndrome, spent years applying for jobs — dressing up, practicing interview answers, and doing everything she was told to do — yet employer after employer told her “no.” One smoothie shop even gave her a full tour… only to later reject her without ever letting her try the job.After that heartbreaking moment, Mary made a decision that would change hundreds of lives: If the world wouldn’t hire Gabi, they would build their own company.From that fire came Gabi’s Grounds, a coffee brand now sold in multiple grocery chains across North Carolina. When the pandemic shut down coffee events, they pivoted again and launched Gabi’s PALS — a thriving packaging, assembly, labeling, and shipping enterprise now employing over 50 adults with special abilities.Their model proves what the world often overlooks: 🎯 Ability is not defined by disability. 🎯 People just need a chance. 🎯 When included, they excel — with precision, joy, and pride.Gabi now speaks on national stages, including TEDx and The Kelly Clarkson Show, inspiring others to embrace their superpower.This conversation is a testament to resilience, purpose, and the extraordinary things that happen when someone refuses to let society limit their child — or anyone else’s.🌟 This Episode is the Final Installment of our November series on The Power of GivingEpisode Takeaways:✨ The real story behind hundreds of rejections — and the “last straw” that changed everything ✨ How Gabi turned a lifetime of “no” into a thriving nonprofit employing over 50 adults ✨ Why adults with special needs lose support after high school — and what needs to change ✨ The hidden gift: how neurodivergent employees deliver impeccable quality and consistency ✨ How inclusive workplaces unlock confidence, independence, and community ✨ Zion’s story: from warehouse worker to cybersecurity graduate — all from being given a chance ✨ Gabi’s fearless TEDx journey and her superpower of kindness ✨ What success looks like now: dreams of “Gabi’s Village,” expansion, and nationwide opportunity ✨ How YOU can help create meaningful employment for adults with special abilitiesAbout Our Guests — Mary & Gabi AngeliniGabi Angelini is a TEDx speaker, entrepreneur, coffee founder, disability advocate, and champion of kindness. Born with Down syndrome, she transformed a world that kept telling her “no” by building something bigger than herself.Mary Angelini, her mother and co-founder, is the powerhouse who turned heartbreak into a movement. As the visionary behind Gabi’s Powered by Special Abilities, she has created dignified, meaningful jobs for over 50 adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Mary is a national advocate, speaker, and inclusive employment leader.Together, they run Gabi’s Grounds (coffee) and Gabi’s PALS (packaging, assembly, labeling, shipping) — proving that ability is everywhere when doors are opened.Connect with Gabi & Mary🌐 Website: https://poweredbygabis.org/ 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gabisraleigh💼 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gabi-angelini-359bb5239https://www.linkedin.com/in/mary-angelini/📹 Watch Gabi’s TEDx Talk:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m78DQLocD5A About the Host - Dr. Amna ShabbirDr. Amna Shabbir, MD, NBC-HWC, CPC is a Dual Board-Certified Physician and TEDx Speaker with advanced training in Integrative Well-being, Performance, and Leadership Development.
