Julie Wignall Talks About The Extraordinary Power of Fireflies Julie Wignall is with us for the first time. Her rather unconventional career has spanned politics, business, the arts, and even environmental conservation. She first gained international recognition for her work with Mirage Resorts, International, where she partnered with the Chairman and CEO to revolutionize animal welfare, launch some award-winning education programs, and drive what became impactful environmental initiatives. But Julie believes in the power that individuals can have to create major meaningful change. So she coined the term Fireflies to describe these people who are able to break barriers and illuminate new possibilities. And her multi-award-winning book is called The Extraordinary Power of Fireflies. It shares inspiring stories about people who have dared to reach out, break barriers, and try to make a genuine difference. Some of her stories really are great! Now Julie is a speaker, coach, consultant, and workshop leader. She helps to equip potential changemakers with the tools that they need to align with their purpose and amplify their impact. We have invited her to be our guest today to talk with us about how each of us can harness our own light to do meaningful work that can help to really transform the world. Julie’s website is extraordinaryfireflies.com. Learn more about Roberta here: http://robertagrimes.comhttps://seekreality.com

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
