    The Walk Of Life With Cheryl Boone
    2022/10/10
    On this bonus episode of The Walk Of Life podcast, Cheryl Thibault is joined by Cheryl Boone to talk about her journey as well as the chapter she wrote for the book, ‘Disrupting The Status Quo’, called ‘A Leap Of Faith’.KEY TAKEAWAYS Sometimes we sit and we think too much about what we want to do or what we’re going to do. It’s then that the voices come and tell you that you can’t do it. Sometimes you actually start listening to those voices that are coming to keep you from moving forward and doing the things that god called you to do. I would hear the voices – I wouldn’t tell anyone – but I would sometimes entertain them to the point where I wouldn’t move forward to do what God called me to do.The Bible tells us to pull down strongholds, pulling down every thought and every imagination that exalts itself above the word and the knowledge of god. Because I know the word, when the thoughts begin to come, as a Christian woman, it is my job to pull those thoughts down because I know those thoughts are not from god. It doesn’t stop the thoughts from coming but it charges me to do what I know to do, and that’s to pull down every thought.I’ve been writing songs for years, god has gifted my songs since I was a young woman. I didn’t have a gift or a talent, I would just hear it – the songs and the lyrics. I hear it in my spirit because I hear it from within. I get quiet before the lord and all of a sudden I start hearing words and I start writing, later I come back after I’ve heard everything to perfect everything that I heard.When I connected with Dr Sonya and the women at Disrupting The Status Quo, it was as if the baby inside of me began to leap. When we came together it was like a wind at our back or an opening that took place inside of me to complete some things that god had already given that I hadn’t gone forth with. Divine connections started taking place and I started meeting people who could help me with things and it was almost as if everything that I started putting in my hand had a motion going. It literally was the wind in my back that caused me to move forward, it’s amazing! BEST MOMENTS‘The Bible talks about the mind being a battlefield and the enemy comes to put targets or darts of thoughts in your mind even to convince you to the point that it’s you.’‘I am who I am.’‘I was concerned someone would steal my music. I was in a bad place then, though from outside I didn’t appear to be in a bad place because I’m singing praise and worship in the church. I'm being about God's business, but there was a part of me that was afraid to take the next step of where god needed me to go. It was a battle from within.’‘I do believe now is my turn, I do believe now I’m having divine connections, I do believe now doors are opening.’ABOUT THE GUESTCheryl Boone is a Psalmist and a prophetic Songwriter, Entrepreneur, and Author.

    The Walk Of Life With Christine Bowen
    2022/10/05
    On this bonus episode of The Walk Of Life podcast, Cheryl Thibault is joined by Christine Bowen about her journey as well as her chapter in the book ‘Disrupting The Status Quo’.KEY TAKEAWAYS A lot of people don’t realise how vulnerable kids can be, we often think that kids aren’t around and listening – believe me, they are! When I was around 14 years old my aunts were in the kitchen discussing me, but not in a positive manner. They were saying that I wasn’t going to amount to anything and I may not even graduate high school. I never thought these things would come out of the mouths of people who say they love you.I had been given away by my mother when I was 2 weeks old to be raised by another family. So, I’d already gone through rejection and abandonment, so you cling to those who you think love you and those you think you can trust. After the hurt and thinking “what’s so bad about me?” After hearing them speak about me, I wanted to deny it, but I couldn’t because they were right there. I had to digest that at that age and I eventually got to a place of saying “no, that does not define who I am”, and I set out to make them a liar.This catapulted me to even where I am today, as a breast cancer survivor. When you get a diagnosis that doesn’t define who you are, you have to make the choice of are you going to fight or are you going to give up? I fought then, I’m cancer free since 2010, I refuse to believe anything else and I refuse to believe that I couldn’t be somebody, that I wasn’t worth having a company, being a director, going to get my Master’s Degree, now working on my Doctoral Degree. I couldn’t allow the negativity to suffocate me to where I couldn’t be living on purpose.There is purpose in each one of us. You have a purpose, you have a desire. If you say you’re an artist, go be an artist, go take a class, there are free classes, we’re out of excuses as to why we can’t live, why we can’t live with purpose, why we can’t be happy. Some of us are living, but we’re not actually living. We’re living to survive, we’re living for other people, we’re living to feed our families, but you're not actually living and able to enjoy life. That’s where I am now. BEST MOMENTS‘Don’t give up and allow negativity to hinder you or keep you from moving forward with the things you want to do with your life. People can say what they want to but it’s you who has to take the action. Are you going to do what you’re called to do or are you going to go ahead and give them what they’re actually thinking about your worth?’‘It’s unfortunate, but a lot of times those closest to you are the ones that will hurt you.’‘Too often we just settle, in how to pay the bills and even in love. We don’t think that we can do better or that we’re worth more. We’ve got to stop settling and start moving and living on purpose.’‘I’m living my purpose by the writing that I’m doing. I never saw myself as an author, I didn’t even like writing papers in class. But when I begin to write what’s in my heart, what’s downloaded in me to write, I can’t stop writing. Then, when you see what you’ve created and other people can read it and it impacts their life, you now know this is your purpose.’ABOUT THE GUESTFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/christine.bowen.313 Email: christinebowen79@gmail.com or realtalkjustforwomen@gmail.com VALUABLE RESOURCESBe a guest! - https://misscheryl.com/podcast/podcast-guest-form/ FREE E-BOOK - http://promos.misscheryl.com/ CHECK OUT MY BOOKS - https://misscheryl.com/features/book-launch-career-in-the-beauty-industry/ ABOUT THE HOSTCheryl Thibault is a visionary, entrepreneur, multi-business owner, educator, influencer, and game changer in the beauty industry.

  • The Walk Of Life With Ramona Rogers

    The Walk Of Life With Ramona Rogers
    2022/10/03
    On this bonus episode of The Walk Of Life podcast, Cheryl Thibault is joined by Ramona Rogers to discuss her journey as well as a chapter she wrote entitled ‘Life’s Prisons Cannot Hold Me’.KEY TAKEAWAYS Over the years – the last half a century or so – I’ve learned that a lot of the time you don’t even know what you’re capable of, life comes at you, you don’t know how to deal with it. Learning how to cope with obstacles and challenges is part of the journey.When I was 4-years-old I had a twin brother and I remember a day when my mother took us to the doctor for a check-up. I was sitting on the floor playing with some toys when the doctor came out saying something to my mother. I didn’t recall it for years, but what he told her was that one twin would have intellectual properties and the other wouldn’t be sufficient in that arena. My mother asked him which one that was and he pointed at me. He counted me out before I even had an opportunity to start life. That was reiterated by kids on my street when we’d play outside, I’d hear “she’s a cute little girl but she’s dumb”. That set my mindset for years, I didn’t push the envelope because I felt I was incapable. I went through postpartum depression after having my second daughter. If you’ve ever been through depression it’s debilitating, you can’t function, it takes your mindset, you can’t manoeuvre, there’s nothing you can do about it. When I finally got to feeling better, 6 months later, I looked at my daughters and decided something’s gonna change, my daughters won’t life the limited life I’m living and life changedOn the journey you grow because you’re learning and being challenged, it pushes the resilient part of you and pushes you to the next thing because you have to figure it out and think differently in order to get past the particular obstacle or challenge that’s in front of you at the time. A lot of the time we don’t think of it that way, we think about it as “why is this happening to me?”, but when you’re heading to that next elevation of life there are some challenges there, but they’re all there to help you grow and get you to that next level. BEST MOMENTS‘If you desire to live you’ll find a way to live.’‘When I had my two girls watching me, like I watched my mother, I started pushing the envelope, trying new things. I became a four-time author, entrepreneur, etc. I started opening doors and more doors opened after that and it raised my self-esteem.’‘When you do nothing, you get nothing.’‘Where there’s no struggle there’s no strength.’ABOUT THE GUESTRamona Rogers’ journey as an entrepreneur and coach began many years ago in her home town of Tulsa Oklahoma where she watched her parents and grandparents own and operate their own businesses. As a child she received hands-on experience working in many of those family entities. As one of the youngest of eight, she always went above and beyond the call of duty to prove her abilities. This is how she established her strong work ethic. Her mother stayed home to raise her and her siblings while they were young. At home her mother enforced the importance of order, discipline and cleanliness while her father exhibited how to be hard working and versatile, working two or three jobs at a time to provide for the family. The characteristics her parents embodied and displayed throughout her childhood gave her the model that she needed to set and measure her own life by. Even with these models, Ramona struggled with low self-esteem and lacked confidence in herself for a number of years. It wasn’t until she was an adult that she discovered her true self as well as her purpose in life. Drawing from the traits her parents modelled during her childhood helped her establish high standards, resiliency, creativity, and versatility, Ramona has used her skills to positively impact the lives of others.Website: https://ramonarogers.com/ Socials: @iamramonarogersVALUABLE RESOURCESBe a guest! - https://misscheryl.com/podcast/podcast-guest-form/ FREE E-BOOK - http://promos.misscheryl.com/ CHECK OUT MY BOOKS - https://misscheryl.com/features/book-launch-career-in-the-beauty-industry/ ABOUT THE HOSTCheryl Thibault is a visionary, entrepreneur, multi-business owner, educator, influencer, and game changer in the beauty industry.

    The Walk Of Life With Desiree Flemming aka Coach Dez
    2022/09/28

    On this bonus episode of The Walk Of Life podcast, Cheryl Thibault is joined by Desiree Flemming aka Coach Dez to discuss her journey as well as the chapter she wrote in the book ‘Disrupting The Status Quo’ entitled ‘Woman Up, Girl’.
    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Woman Up, Girl is about empowering young ladies and older women – it doesn’t matter what age or stage of life – to woman up either in a conversation, business, ministry, as a wife, as a women, it’s about rising up to the next level because a lot of times we are in a place of complacency. It’s about rising up, rising to the occasion and using your voice.
    • My life began to change when I moved out of state. I had no education, I had a kid at 15, and didn't know how to do administrative work or use a computer. My cousin gave me a crash course in how to work a computer after which I moved back to Illinois and started my own business which went well and was very lucrative.
    • We’re unapologetically women, we don’t have to have excuses for being us, we can shine. It’s OK to shine, it’s OK to smile, it’s OK to be kind, it’s OK to be upset, it’s OK to forgive, it’s OK to let go of being upset. Don’t be apologetic for who you are.

    BEST MOMENTS
    ‘I grew up in a home with 10 siblings, I’m the second oldest which was a major job. We didn’t have a lot of Christmases growing up after my father died, but what I do remember is getting food out of the garbage can behind the store and one of my classmates seeing me and bullying me for it.
    ‘I’m back in school right now and in some of the classes I’m the oldest one, but I’m OK with that.’
    ‘Empowering women has been a passion of mine for years to overcome where they are and get to where God has for them to go.’

    The Walk Of Life With Nathalie Lilavois
    2022/09/26
    On this bonus episode of The Walk Of Life podcast, Cheryl Thibault is joined by Nathalie Lilavois to discuss her journey as well as the chapter she wrote in their book entitled ‘Strength, Determination and Faith.KEY TAKEAWAYS The chapter talks about three specific things that happened to me that were like a gut punch and sent me into depression. I have a job that I liked, but I had aspirations, so I was looking for another job but I didn’t get it, so I felt deflated. I began looking at what I did wrong and what I could have done better. Then my Mum passed away which was much more significant and I wrestled with that for a long time. The following month, I’d barely got through the grieving process and I got sick. Nobody really wanted to tell me what it was, I was seeing lots of different specialists and the concern was it could have been a cancer. That was my abyss and I think a lot of people go through this all the time and we don’t take the chance to slow down and it builds into a dive. What do you do in those situations?I had to compartmentalise to get through each one. The job thing became so insignificant after my Mum’s passing and then my illness, it was a blessing in disguise. I had to forgive myself when it came to my Mum, we didn’t have a great relationship towards the end, there were things I wanted to talk about that we would never be able to discuss to acknowledge my hurt and find out her thoughts. But, I had to get past that and forgive her, and forgive myself for feeling that way towards her. I realised that she had been through a lot and needed help herself, she’d grown up and survived in a war torn country and came to a country that was not always supportive, if you will, at a time when there was civil unrest. Her whole life was marked by trauma and I became thankful that she had the wherewithal to bring my family to a different country where we didn’t have to go through what she had.Faith isn’t just about religion. I talk about having two kinds of faith: Faith in God and faith in myself. The faith in myself is about the way you talk to yourself, your affirmations, your self-talk, what you are telling yourself and what you are able to do and not do, based on how you set yourself up for your day. That grows out of my Mum’s strength and my family’s determination. The other faith is faith in a higher power, whoever that is and however that is for each individual person and what does that mean to you in terms of what do you have faith in and how does that inform what you do on a regular basis, and are you being true to yourself and your values, etc?A dream that gets you out of bed is a drive, which is more in line with your passion. The hope for a better tomorrow is almost like treading water, but it doesn’t have the same depth of purpose. People need to really think about dreaming big dreams, have a big goal, because I think that provides the drive and purpose and will get you moving. BEST MOMENTS‘Looking at things differently made the difference.’‘Strength, determination and faith all come from my family.’‘There’s a reason for everything that happens in your life, that’s where you’re supposed to be, that’s where God has ordered your path.’ABOUT THE GUESTDr. Nathalie C.

  • The Walk Of Life With Dr Vi Ho

    The Walk Of Life With Dr Vi Ho
    2022/09/21
    On this bonus episode of The Walk Of Life podcast, Cheryl Thibault is joined by Dr Vi Ho who has an incredible story to share as well as the chapter she wrote in the book ‘Visionary Women Leaders’ entitled ‘Healthy Food, Healthy Life And Healthy Relationship’.KEY TAKEAWAYS I’m a root canal specialist, but I took a different path and studied biological endodontics – I’m into health, so after I mastered my skill I wanted to look into I can do it better for my patients and what can I improve upon it to give the best work with the least harm to the body. I use materials and tools that do no harm and actually promote healing, such as using lasers to do root canals and using ozone to disinfect the tooth while trying to avoid chemicals.Because of the way I practise, I don’t just see my patients for a root canal then I’m done and goodbye, we view health as an overall connection in the body. Sometimes if a root canal doesn’t heal, it’s not that your endodontist did a bad job, it’s your whole-body connection, your health and everything. I really enjoy sitting down with my patients and talking about health and what links to what and really help them.My family was unusual forma an Asian family, they didn’t push us to become a doctor or an academic, they always used health and happiness as the key. The only requirement was that we’d better be good citizens! “You do you, but if I hear anything bad about you, well have to talk!” I was going to be a nail technician like my mother because in my heart I knew I wasn’t smart like my exams showed that I was, but I got lucky and got a scholarship into college, I failed my first year because I didn’t know how to study, but my mindset was: What is there to lose? So I focussed on learning one step at a time and any mistakes I made were honest and I learned from them. I was never someone who knew what they wanted to be, I was good with my hands and I always want to learn new things.People ask me how I get my kids to eat everything, because I teach them why they have to eat certain things, for example bitter melon – I tried several times for them to eat it and they didn’t like it because it’s so bitter, but I really got them to be motivated – I couldn’t trick them not eating it – there had to be a reason they want to eat it, so I explained to them this and that and now they eat it. BEST MOMENTS‘I have 3 kids and I home-school them as well as run my practice. I grew up with nothing and wanted to give them everything, but one day I realised that they don’t need that, I didn’t need that. What I need to do is teach them about relationships. Being a busy parent, sometimes I don’t have time to do extra-curricular activities, but I do have a tool I can use three times a day to be able to not just take care of them but teach them valuable life lessons, and that’s through cooking.’‘Being present and mindful, to me, is super-important.’‘We may not all like to cook, but we all like to eat and good food can definitely start a conversation and make us happy. You may not be a good cook, but you have to eat anyway, so why not invest the time – not just with your family, but friends as well – eating with people and making a meaningful relationship from that.’‘We all have different medical issues but the first thing, a must, to fix any issue you may have is to fix your nutrition and digestion.’ABOUT THE GUESTDr Vi Ho was born in Vietnam and grew up in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. She received her Bachelor Degree in Biology from Texas A&M University. Immediately upon graduation, she entered Creighton University School of Dentistry and graduated in the top 2% of her class. While at Creighton University School of Dentistry, she was selected as a member of the national dental honour society, Omicron Kappa Upsilon. The membership was limited to those dental students who have distinguished themselves by excellence in scholarship, while demonstrating exemplary traits of character and potential qualities for future professional growth and attainments. Dr. Ho then got accepted to a class size of two residents at the University of Texas School of Dentistry- Houston to receive three extra years of endodontic specialty training and a Master Degree in Science of Dentistry. During her time as an endodontic resident, she was involved in her own research of root canal irrigation and served as a teaching assistant to dental students. After years of practising endodontics, she decided to establish her own practice, Cypress Endodontics. Dr. Ho’s philosophy is that a patient can’t see what you’re doing but they can feel what you’re doing and how you’re doing it. For every patient, she strives to hear from them at the end of the procedure that they felt comfortable and confident with her care. To her, that’s professional satisfaction and pride that she always aims for.Dr. Ho has been invited to speak on nutrition, health and ...

  • The Walk Of Life – With Dr Amber Ann Lyons

    The Walk Of Life – With Dr Amber Ann Lyons
    2022/09/19
    On this bonus episode of The Walk Of Life podcast, Cheryl Thibault is joined by Dr Amber Ann Lyons, the CEO and founder of Pain To Purpose Incorporated as well as an ordained pastor in New York, an ordained elder, an intercessory prayer leader, a podcast host, a producer, author, global youth leader and transformational speaker against domestic violence and youth advocate. The pair discuss her story as well as the chapter she wrote in the book ‘Visionary Women Leaders’ entitled ‘Passionate Pursuer of Purpose’.KEY TAKEAWAYS Purpose is something that my life is all about, it’s something that is my constant message, it’s my what, my where, my why. To be in a two-year span where a lot of people have lost their passion, lost their purpose and some don’t even know what their purpose is, I have been speaking the message of being a passionate pursuer of purpose. In the midst of the pandemic many have gotten lost, stagnated, immobilised, stuck, so we want to continue to pursue purpose.My youth programme, Healing Pain Through the Arts, came to be because I saw my son use his music to help heal some of the pain that he had experienced in his life. We work with young people all over, in various schools, colleges and platforms and we open up collaborative opportunities to give young people a voice. It’s about educating our community, celebrating the gifts and talents of our youth, and about cultivating love and healing in our community. Young people deal with the real, whereas sometimes adults might not want to deal with it head on, they don’t have that problem, they’re gonna deal with the real and they’re gonna tell you the real. And sometimes it might need a filter on it, but that is the world in which we live today. We live in a world full of creative, intelligent, very very smart young people, but on the flipside, they sometimes don’t have the wherewithal to go through a lot – they will walk away from things if something is not working right whereas we’re loyal to a fault.There’s a changing of the guard between young and old where the young people don’t respect or revere the elders and the elders don’t want to hear from the young people because they feel like they’re disrespectful, they need to be seen and not heard, they need to stay in their place. One of the things I’ve been working on is a programme to be able to bridge the gap and rebuilt the bridge that has divided the generations and be able to have the young people understand that they have to hear the adults, not just take what they have to offer and the older generation needs to be able to hear the younger generation, we have to give them the opportunity to know that they’re valued, that we need them. How can we effectively work together with them if we shun them? Bad communication has to continue to be developed and sharpened. BEST MOMENTS‘I’m a passionate person, people say they can feel my passion, even if we’re talking over the phone.’‘Even if we’re pursuing purpose, we still have to have those moments where we Netflix and chill, because that’s a part of being able to continue the pursuit of purpose is making sure that you are taking care of yourself and resetting.’‘Young people will take on any topic, which they valiantly did during the Covid-19 pandemic, all topics that were difficult to broach, they handled it with great excellence.’‘The world is changing, we’re shaping a new generation of leaders. We say our young people are leaders of tomorrow but I beg to differ, they really are leaders of today, they’re entrepreneurs, they’re running businesses, they’re graduating out of college in their teenage years. We have to be able to not be afraid of the changing of the guard.’ABOUT THE GUESTAmber Lyons is a dedicated and passionate woman, who is committed to working diligently within the community to broaden the scope of advocacy within the areas of Domestic Violence and Teen/Young Adult Dating Violence, Abuse and Children Suffering In Silence. She lends her voice to raise awareness while seeking to Educate, Equip, Empower and Encourage all ages. Her successful partnerships and projects with businesses, churches and various organisations have proven to be very beneficial to the community. She has recently added the Georgia Network to End Sexual Assault Training for Sexual Assault Advocate/Counselor to her many skills and looks forward to working within this most critical field as well. Her greatest desire is to aid victims to understand that they can transition From Pain To Purpose.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-amber-ann-lyons-0466b5a/ VALUABLE RESOURCESBe a guest! - https://misscheryl.com/podcast/podcast-guest-form/ FREE E-BOOK - http://promos.misscheryl.com/ CHECK OUT MY BOOKS - https://misscheryl.com/features/book-launch-career-in-the-beauty-industry/ ABOUT THE HOSTCheryl Thibault is a visionary, entrepreneur, multi-business owner, educator, influencer, and ...

    The Walk Of Life With Ragne Sinikas
    2022/09/14
    On this bonus episode of The Walk Of Life podcast, Cheryl Thibault is joined by Ragne Sinikas, a global marketer whose focus is on helping brands to perform profit. The pair talk about her chapter in the book ‘Visionary Women Leaders’ on sustainable empathic leadership as well as her career. KEY TAKEAWAYS As entrepreneurs, start-ups or small business owners, we think we have presence, but it doesn’t really correspond that we also have profit. We do things that we love, we put so much effort into it, many of us work 24/7, but no one tells you how you should be doing it. We start to gain attraction which is seen as a certain type of success but then we hit a block and for some reason our company cannot grow any more. You need to do some work on finding out who your ideal clients are and getting to know them better than they know themselves. What are their habits, what do they like, what are they watching on TV, what are they reading? All of these cues will take you to success.A lot of business owners try to hire people in to grow their business but they can’t find people that work as hard as they want. When you’re hiring and you don’t have clarity around what you want the results will be vague as well because the people you hire don’t understand what you want so your expectations will never be met.Coming from an ex-Soviet Union country where everybody walked and talked that same and kids didn’t have a voice, it created a lot of limits in my mind. When the borders opened I started to work with international companies and I saw the other side of things. Really fast it became my mission that once we believe in ourselves, our skill set and really look inside and see who we are under all our doubts and fears and the way society wants us to be. It’s time to stop waiting for someone else to fix our lives. Women and girls have been told that a prince on a white horse will come and all your troubles will be taken away. We need to stop those stereotypes and thinking that way and looking for outside happiness – that someone else will make us happy. It’s the same with empowerment, once we feel that and you are able to help someone else to feel that, you are enough, you have such potential, you can do this, you do have a voice. That’s what empowerment is from my point of view and it’s what I always try to help girls and women around me to understand who they really are and what they’re capable of. We’re working with indigenous communities in Mexico and it’s been a fantastic journey getting to know them and see how little they have and how little we really need to be happy. We have been working with them to teach a sustainable way to manage their lives, specifically their income. Their mindset is that if I sell one thing I don’t have to work until I have no money again, which creates a lot of problems. I lived with them for 5 days and nights and I felt their pain. There’s no water to have a shower, or wash your clothes and dishes, so they create a lot of trash because they can’t wash things. So, we cleaned up the environment they are living in. A few months later around 50% of them went back to their old way of living because they didn’t see an incentive for them to, but the other 50% had carried on cleaning their surroundings because they wanted a better life. Now we’re trying to create opportunities to work with their skill set so that they can sell that in a sustainable way. BEST MOMENTS‘The most important investment you can ever make is to invest in yourself and your personal growth. Once you do that everything else will follow. It reflects in your leadership and everything else that you touch.’‘Your presence is really, really important because you never know you are going to hear about your story which can change someone else’s life.’‘Women have allowed society or circumstances to define us. Life happens, now you get to choose whether it happens to you or for you. Once you get the mindset that life happens for you, your life is going to be totally different.’‘We have lost a connection to ourselves and the meaning of life in a world where we’re so focussed on chasing the money and success.
