Imagine having a middle school teacher whose kid centered lessons made learning challenging but fun and lived up to the promise that if you did your best, you’d succeed and get a good grade. That was Ted D. Sugges, described by his last supervisor as The Unconventional Teacher.

Ted is a retired middle school teacher who specialized in courses as diverse as American History, Theater, Public Speaking, Career Exploration and English Composition. His natural curiosity, never-give-up attitude and everything's-easy-when-you-know-how philosophy have allowed him to indulge in a variety of experiences including a life-long study of religious philosophy.

"Jesus On The Path To Glory " is Ted's third book on the life of Jesus and picks up where “Jesus His Stories Revealed By Angelo His Guardian Angel” left off.

About Virginia Ritterbusch

Over 25 years of experience as a dental hygienist, working one-to-one with patients, and being privileged to teach them oral care, made the transition to a coaching career very smooth for Virginia. Completing her BS with a concentration in psychology and becoming triple certified as a life coach, positioned her to encourage anxiety management through self-leadership.

Virginia has successfully supported clients in handling anxiety since 2014. Her own significant recovery from crippling anxiety was secured through personal research, learning concepts, and practicing new habits. She believed she could retrain her brain to work above anxiety, obsessive thinking, depression, and body dysmorphic disorder.

For her, enjoying life began at age 55. She could finally handle her days comfortably and with confidence. These results are testimony to the effectiveness of her holistic approach. Through the consistent use of the NLP reframing technique, she shifted doubtful mindsets to generalized self-assurance.

Reframing rewires thinking pathways so focusing on reality replaces apprehension. Reframing is a reliable resource that people can use regularly and trust its effectiveness in side-stepping the sabotaging beliefs that burden their lives.

Virginia invites you into the world of self-assessment and objectivity so that inner freedom through self-acceptance rules the day. She encourages readers to develop these strategies and live the rewards earned through self-leadership. Experience the freedom to connect wholeheartedly to life—perhaps for the very first time!

It's harder than ever to help deserving people get approved for disability benefits these days. Over the last 20 years as a disability attorney, I've learned tactics for winning these important cases for claimants who are unfairly denied disability benefits.

The Lawyer's Bible Series is meant to help other lawyers, nonattorney representatives, accredited agents, paralegals, legal assistants, law office staff, receptionists, the disabled or differently-abled, and the general public. I write without all the lawyerly legalese. As Will Rogers said, "The minute you read something you don't understand, you can almost be sure it was drawn up by a lawyer." I strive to be an exception to that rule.

I've helped thousands of claimants, representing them at all levels of the disability process, including in federal courts. I'm also a public speaker seen in The Miami Herald, The Boston Globe, and on ABC, NBC, FOX News, and CBS News. I teach other professionals and their staff members how to be more successful and fulfilled while serving the disabled members of the national community. I love to help people solve their problems.

In my spare time, I'm a zipliner, foodie, spelunker, world-wide traveler, snorkeler, lover of beaches, friend, daughter, mom, sister, counselor, advisor, and Bravo TV watcher. I'm also a proud member of the Cherokee tribe. I hope you find what I write to be useful and enjoyable.

I’m Shelly Dax, an artist, writer, teacher, tattooer and fierce Pollyanna! This means I’m a feisty, audacious rebel who ALSO intensely loves positive thinking and spreading encouragement! I believe in being radically authentic, fulfilling your creative spirit, and doing your life with outrageous joy.

I’m a true renaissance girl–I ADORE all things artistic. Sang my first solo at age five and wrote my first story at age nine. I was bit by the artsy bug. My childhood was filled with artistic endeavors, from plays to ceramics to choir to poetry--my salvation from poverty and dysfunction!

I also spent more than 12 years working in theatre; acting, directing, singing, writing and teaching BEFORE getting licensed as a tattoo artist and opening my own tattoo studio.

I’m a successful tattoo & graphic design studio owner since 2006 and I’ve been teaching tattoo since 2011. I write. I draw. I paint. I teach. I sing. I cook. I play.

I’m here because I’ve challenged myself to be brave and offer my creative gifts out to the universe. No holds barred. No hiding behind excuses, fear or “what will they think”? (who are “they” anyway?) Doing things “by the book” was never my way. So, we can choose to play it small or live large and make our damn art already! No more excuses.

I’m writing to encourage the creative misfits, unyielding dreamers and gutsy rulebreakers.

And to anyone who says, “what the hell does she think she’s doing now!?” or “She can’t do that!” I smile sweetly and say very politely: go make your own freakn art

Create-Illuminate-Connect,

Shelly Dax

Duke Worthington is a life coach and professional speaker who offers very powerful and loving ways to show up for others. He's come to understand that there may be no greater gift one person can give another than to allow that person to feel truly seen and heard.

By not initially understanding that lesson himself, Duke realized his relationships had suffered tremendously. Divorce and, while his kids were growing up, not appreciating the amazing human beings they were, he learned the pitfalls of not showing up. Today he shares those lessons and many more.

For the brave souls willing to commit, Duke brings to light what showing up really looks like along with the nuances and subtleties that make all the difference. He believes each of us are truly amazing and deserve to be seen and heard. He also shares that by getting out of our own way (because it's rarely about us) we are perceived very differently. He calls it, learning to be seen by disappearing.

Duke's based out of the Kansas City area and when he's not writing, podcasting, giving presentations or having a coaching conversation he's probably outdoors running, biking, playing pickleball or hanging out with his kids and grand-kids.

As a Physical Therapist for over 33 years, Barbara has helped thousands of people who have fallen, are afraid of falling, or unknowingly have deficits in key areas for preventing falls. Her approach is an incredibly successful, easy to follow, movement based approach (NOT a boring exercise program that can help some, but not as long term).

As you’ll see with her story in Happiness Code, she was reminded first-hand what happens physically, mentally, and emotionally when even she stopped moving!

And as we all found ourselves not moving during the pandemic lockdown, Baby Boomers and older, especially found themselves with “sudden” difficulties with even basic movements at times.

You don’t have to be one of the statistics that prompted the “I’ve fallen and can’t get up” commercial! You can absolutely improve so you Thrive instead of just Surviving!

Visit: https://YourBalanceForLife.com to learn more about how you can work with Barbara to return to your life of joy with ease of movement, without the dreaded fear of falling!
