In this episode of <em>The Giant Builders</em>, Lois Wyant sits down with career ownership coach Stacy Heisey-Terrell to unpack how to recognize when a career shift may be necessary—and how to approach that decision with clarity instead of fear.</p><p>Stacy brings years of experience from both corporate human resources and individual coaching, helping professionals move from feeling stuck in the “passenger seat” of their careers into the driver’s seat. Together, they explore the difference between a difficult season at work and a deeper misalignment that’s been quietly building for years.</p><p>This conversation goes beyond job titles.

In this episode of <em>The Giant Builders</em>, Lois Wyant sits down with career ownership coach Stacy Heisey-Terrell to unpack how to recognize when a career shift may be necessary—and how to approach that decision with clarity instead of fear.</p><p>Stacy brings years of experience from both corporate human resources and individual coaching, helping professionals move from feeling stuck in the “passenger seat” of their careers into the driver’s seat. Together, they explore the difference between a difficult season at work and a deeper misalignment that’s been quietly building for years.</p><p>This conversation goes beyond job titles. Stacy shares how transferable skills like leadership, strategy, mentoring, and problem-solving often open doors far beyond what people expect. They also discuss why many professionals feel trapped by income, status, or expectations they set earlier in life—and how redefining success for your current season can unlock freedom, purpose, and peace.</p><p>You’ll also hear why career changes don’t have an age limit, why fear often masks opportunity, and how intentional self-reflection can reveal what’s missing—and what’s possible.

In this episode of <strong>The Giant Builders</strong>, Lois Wyant interviews <strong>Martha Burich</strong>, author of <strong>Yes, You Can Raise Happy, Responsible Children</strong>, about practical parenting strategies that build confidence, responsibility, and healthier family boundaries.</p><p>Martha shares what she learned as a former teacher and child psychology professor, plus what she learned the hard way as a parent.

Then she walks through her CALMER approach: how to get curious about what’s happening, accept and assess what you feel, lean in (instead of backing away), create meaning with mindfulness, engage your values, and reassess as needed.</p><p><br></p><p>If you’ve been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected, this conversation will help you take a steady next step toward peace, confidence, and connection.</p><p><br></p><p>Watch here: https://youtu.be/aR2gUJxhapk</p><p><br></p><p>Timestamp Overview</p><p><br></p><p>00:00 Anxiety is everywhere: recognizing an anxious state</p><p>00:34 Welcome + meet Monica Pitek Fugedi</p><p>01:12 Monica’s work: therapy, speaking, Anxiety Anecdotes tools</p><p>02:34 Why anxiety is rising in schools (and how pressure trickles down)</p><p>04:07 Quick tools: power pose + calming the vagus nerve</p><p>05:51 Shame, isolation, and why so many people feel alone</p><p>07:25 Monica’s CALMER approach overview</p><p>07:52 C = Curiosity (what is my body telling me?)</p><p>08:16 A = Accept and assess (stop fighting what you feel)</p><p>09:16 L = Lean in (why avoidance makes it worse)</p><p>10:38 M = Meaning making + mindfulness (calm body first, mind follows)</p><p>12:18 E = Engage your values (make decisions from values, not emotion)</p><p>14:05 R = Reassess and repeat</p><p>14:28 What a first therapy session looks like (comfort matters)</p><p>16:18 When to consider therapy (stuck, anxious, life affected)</p><p>18:38 Closing: connection, purpose, and you deserve support</p><p><br></p><p>Check out other episodes</p><p>Business:  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf7Uc6zi2pF9pnIL1foYJ3uVP8z1fCVmZ</p><p>Health:  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf7Uc6zi2pF9QEQ1q2e05K28IjUvLPGJy</p><p>Spiritual:  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf7Uc6zi2pF96jBzfz6QHUegeULd7YEsY</p><p>Family:  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf7Uc6zi2pF_SaLQxs8op1CPSDg_wG8vL</p><p>Connect with The Giant Builders:</p><p>Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheGiantBuilders</p><p>Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thegiantbuilders/</p><p>YouTube: youtube.com/channel/UCdhZSrC57PyP-QSWIaTeldg?sub_confirmation=1</p>]]></content:encoded><link><![CDATA[https://thegiantbuilders.com/captivate-podcast/how-to-know-youre-anxious-and-what-to-do-next-calmer-method-explained]]></link><guid isPermaLink="false">70f62aed-5a40-416b-b045-5b5e33a83c47</guid><itunes:image href="https://artwork.captivate.fm/80033256-dcb1-49c8-badb-0f6e8776c7ec/Monica-Pitek-Fugedi.jpg"/><pubDate>Tue, 16 Dec 2025 14:00:00 -0400</pubDate><enclosure url="https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/70f62aed-5a40-416b-b045-5b5e33a83c47.mp3" length="38569451" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:duration>20:05</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType><itunes:season>3</itunes:season><itunes:episode>251</itunes:episode><podcast:episode>251</podcast:episode><podcast:season>3</podcast:season></item><item><title>How to Listen to Your Body for Burnout Recovery</title><itunes:title>How to Listen to Your Body for Burnout Recovery</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Are you brushing off exhaustion and brain fog as “just being busy”… while your body is quietly screaming for help?</p><p>In this episode of The Giant Builders, Lois Wyant sits down with burnout survivor and bioenergetic wellness guide Natascha Polomski.

Despite the initial resistance and concerns about commercialism, the journey from a local celebration in 1910 to a nationally recognized holiday in 1972 is a testament to the enduring importance of honoring fathers.</itunes:summary></item><item><title>Building Bonds: The Power of Daily Messages in Parenting</title><itunes:title>Building Bonds: The Power of Daily Messages in Parenting</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<div>Video Option:&nbsp; <a href="https://youtu.be/cMqBVowxZiY">https://youtu.be/cMqBVowxZiY</a><br><br>At the heart of Tammy's endeavor lies a desire for genuine connection.

Not only should we encourage others daily, but we also need to encourage ourselves. Embracing the belief that we are special children of God and acknowledging His love and protection can create an atmosphere of positivity in our lives. In the face of challenges, determination plays a key role. The story of Florence Chadwick's perseverance in swimming the English Channel emphasizes the importance of not giving up when we're on the brink of success.</div><div><br>Additionally, enthusiasm, which originates from "En Theos" (in God), encourages us to be filled with God's energy and change the environment around us.

Her experiences, from being an active-duty military spouse, and serving in various administrative roles, to working with both large corporations and small businesses, have shaped her perspective. However, it was a bold leap of faith a couple of years ago that led her to pursue her true passion: proofreading, editing, and writing. In this interview, Jennie sheds light on her love for these essential skills and the diverse array of writing projects she tackles, from newsletters and blogs to children's books and even transforming podcasts into written content.<br><br>One of the key takeaways is the immense impact that well-edited and error-free content can have on the reader's perception. As Jennie rightly notes, the first impression matters, and written material is often the initial point of contact between individuals or organizations. A simple typo or error can cast doubt on a professional's competence and commitment. Jennie's approach is not only about identifying mistakes but also about enhancing the clarity and engagement of content. Through real-world examples, Jennie emphasizes the importance of ensuring that the words you put out into the world are polished and error-free. Proofreading and editing, as we discover, are more than just skills; they are the guardians of the written word's power and influence.<br><br>In summary, Jennie Jolly's expertise in proofreading and editing takes center stage in this enlightening conversation. Her insights and experiences serve as a valuable reminder of the impact that impeccable written communication can have, whether in a business context or personal correspondence.

With this announcement, seniors can enjoy a discussion about a health and fitness program that caters to what they need in their older years.

The interview introduces clients to the work of Aubrey Reinmiller, a personal trainer who is passionate about coaching and helping people reach their health and fitness goals.

A certified personal trainer, licensed physical therapist, and functional aging specialist, Aubrey coaches men and women over 50 and has found that people in this age group prioritize their health and physical fitness more than others.

She says that regular strength training can improve a slowing metabolism, lack of energy, and inability to lose weight due to muscle mass lost because of not exercising for a long time.

Common mistakes older people make when returning to exercise are focusing on cardio or pushing themselves too hard. Audrey recommends a more balanced approach, such as adding strength training in between and building one’s motivation by starting off slowly.

Aubrey’s exercise program includes body-friendly movements that provide the right type of challenge and can accommodate any previous injuries due to her philosophy of making small changes. It also contains a nutritional program that will also help improve the metabolism.

Aubrey holds small virtual group exercise classes with a 45-minute workout that includes a full-body workup, strength and conditioning, and a full-body stretch at the end. Private classes can be arranged for clients who might have a complex health challenge or those who prefer one-on-one training.

The first private consultation meeting will consist of reviewing the client’s goals and past struggles as well as an easy 10-minute test that includes checking the client’s balance, strength, and endurance.

Aubrey has created a no-cost guide 'Thrive after 55 Quickstart Exercises’ available at the link given on the interview page. It provides an easy roadmap with workouts and practical advice for what is best, how much to do, and when.

I have a special guest here today. This is Dr Whirley-Diaz and she is actually my weight doctor.&nbsp;<br><br>I I've really not had a weight problem until I hit menopause as many of us. And then I couldn't get it off. And I actually remember when I thought I got to go see a doctor, I was getting out of the pool and walking up towards the house and I saw my reflection in the back window. I was like, how did you like this? &nbsp; And I think I called you the next day. Can you help me with this?&nbsp;<br><br>Well, it's very frequent that it's that one bad mirror shot or the one bad photo, I can't tell you how many times it is that. &nbsp; I look like that and that's what gets the idea to go do something about it.&nbsp;<br><br>And you're helping my mom. And I think episode five will be sharing my story about Covid, but my mother was in a Dire situation where she needed to lose a lot of weight and she's so far has lost about 60 lbs and she brags about you all the time. She she loves you dearly.&nbsp;<br><br>I love her too. And that is the other reason that we really have to look at this stuff about weight. You know, we talked about the appearance and all that kind of stuff, but the weight is associated with Alzheimer's, diabetes, high blood pressure. I mean almost every system is involved. And especially that central stuff which is what comes after menopause and later in life for both sexes.&nbsp;<br><br>Yeah, this episode is not about body shaming or anything like that. It's all about the healthy fitness of being.&nbsp;<br><br>Being a healthy weight range agreed.&nbsp;<br><br>So tell us how you work through your program.&nbsp;<br><br>All right. Well, first of all, since I am an M. D. We have to do labs and E. K. G. To make sure that we have a baseline. It doesn't mean if you have abnormal labs you can't start. It just means we want to track your cholesterol, your renal function, your kidney function, how your heart's working, your electrolytes everything to make sure that you either stay as great as you are or we fix some things. Which is really gratifying for me. Once we get all that data, then we have patients come in and we spend just a little session getting to know each other and I can do a body composition analysis. And what that is is just four points of contact, feet and your hands. And it's called bio impedance. Which means it just puts the teeniest, tiniest charged through your body and then everything absorbs things differently. And so we have a full print out of how much body fat you have, how much muscle you have and what your metabolic rate is. So we can follow that after that appointment,&nbsp; if you, decide to come and become part of the program then we do a very comprehensive appointment. A lot of information that we go over; sleeping habits, eating habits, drinking, other smoking habits, all of these kind of things trying to get, I need to get a picture of your life. Are you still working from home? Are back at work? Does your spouse work do not have a spouse kids? Is everybody getting along? You know, it's a very complicated situation. So that's why it's so long.&nbsp;<br><br>And then after I've got a good handle on all of that, we go through what the program is about. I do a moderately low carbohydrate with a moderately high protein. Now for those who like the numbers, that means Protein over 80 g a day, which is not a stress on your kidneys as long as you have normal kidney function and less than 50 g of carbohydrates. And that's because I mean, if you do Atkins or you know, super look, are you less than 20 g of carbohydrates a day? I can't sustain that. And so I don't want to ask anybody to do something that I can't do and I just can't keep it, you know. And then once you mess it up then given, you know, spiral downwards. So moderate carbohydrates, moderately high protein.&nbsp;<br><br>We don't do any real talk about exercise at the beginning, losing weight is about the food. And then after you get into a rhythm with the food, then we start talking about what kind of exercise you want to do and how it fits in your life. I can't make you go someplace and you don't like, so you don't have to go anywhere. We can get it all done at home if you want to.&nbsp;<br><br>Then the way I start with the food is I like to start because I've tried many ways now that I like to start with meal replacements at the beginning, shakes, bars, puddings. We have so many different kinds of things that you can find something that you like, but we still eat, you still have a protein and a couple of veggies a day and we have real food snacks, eggs, meat and cheese, add some free food, pickles, olives and bullion and jello. So it's two part programs with those meal replacements. I'm keeping your calorie intake down, but I'm also keeping your carbohydrates moderately and those two together, just make it very fast for some people and consistent for others.&nbsp;<br><br>Of course everybody's journey is a different time frame between how their body responds. A regular question to that is an important one because people want to know all the time. When can I have this off?&nbsp; The average for this kind of a program is 3 lbs a week for women. Now that's average. So there might be a big 7 lb. week and then they're not so much the next week.&nbsp; It varies like that.&nbsp; And the average for men is 5 lb a week. Our biggest, our biggest loser of female was 14lbs in one week,&nbsp; She had a lot of weight to lose. So it comes off a lot faster. And our biggest loser for a man was 18 lbs. He was also had to lose a lot of weight. So he actually lost 192 lbs in one year. He said he couldn't get down on the floor and play with his kids. And at the end he was running five miles a day and looked so much younger. The lady who lost 14 lbs, was doing it because she needed knee surgery and her surgeon wouldn't do it until she lost some weight. So she lost 160 lbs in a year and then got what her knee done. And then the other knee done. She came in here all crunched over and hobbling with her walker and she left just standing upright and walking without anything.&nbsp;<br><br>You know, and I think that's one of the things that especially for me is that you change your health so much, you know, like for my mom after all that she's been through. She was using a walker, right? Oh yeah, that's already she's down. She does around the house. &nbsp;<br><br>So I mean, you know, it's it's a point of that you get around more, you different physical things happen.&nbsp;<br><br>You've shared with me before that people get off medication.&nbsp;<br><br>I start decreasing High blood pressure medicines after about 20 lbs and see how they do on diabetic medications. You know, I work in coordination with the endocrinologist.&nbsp; I don't go in and just change everything with that coordinating triglycerides. People who have high triglycerides, they get fixed very fast. It just they respond quickly. My neighbor came lost 30 lbs. His triglycerides were I think 4 11 or something. And when he left 12 weeks later they were 1 10 man. That's really, that's pretty darn high to normal.&nbsp;<br><br>The one thing that people ask a lot is about insurance and we don't take insurance. We can't, they won't pay us, my husband's a bariatric surgery. They'll pay him, but they want medical weight loss. It's just I think they think that we're not doing real medicine or something. Some magic pill and it is not, I guess that's the next thing I should talk about is medication. I do use two different appetite suppressants in my practice. There are others out there, but there's just too many side effects and I don't want us&nbsp; to use the medicine as a crutch. Just use it as a tool. And I used contrary, which is a new earth medicine for the past 12 years, 10 years. And then I use an appetite suppressant and been around for probably at least 50 years. And if you drink a cup of coffee, you can take centuries. I do want to say another thing about the genre.&nbsp;<br><br>The atmosphere of the practice is, you know, I've struggled with my weight. I'm still struggling with my weight. I get thinking I'm good. And then I started having dietary indiscretions. We do not call them cheats, their dietary indiscretions.&nbsp; I mean, I know what it's like to go up and down and want to do it, but then you just don't do it and then you want to do it and it comes off and then you're so proud and uh because we're all human. So we try to make this as fun and lighthearted as possible. We still have to do the real medicine really monitor your health and how things are going and careful with all of that. But we try to just make it light and happy and open and receptive and there is, you said earlier, there is no shaming here of any, you know, people come in, they're uh they're all sad that they didn't lose as much as they wanted. I'm like, did you lose? Yeah, we're happy. That's a success. Every pound is a success story and they're afraid that I'm going to yell at them or something and like I'm not yelling at you, come on, I know I yell at myself more than anybody else needs to yell at me. So you're probably beating up on yourself enough. You don't need me to add to that well.&nbsp;<br><br>And I think what you brought into into my life is that it's a lifestyle change. Now, I understand which foods are not going to be good for me and if I cheat and have, oh, you use the bad word, oh, if you have a dietary indiscretion, I have a dietary indiscretion, you know, then I know what I need to do and what I need not to do for the next day.&nbsp;<br><br>And that's what most people that really, I'm gonna say finish the program, but keep...]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>If you prefer the YouTube option it is at:&nbsp; <a href="https://youtu.be/0yqXWqJ3lBY">https://youtu.be/0yqXWqJ3lBY</a><br>Please make sure to like our Facebook page to win some fun gifts:&nbsp; https://www.facebook.com/TheGiantBuilders<br><br>Welcome giant builders.

Now, I understand which foods are not going to be good for me and if I cheat and have, oh, you use the bad word, oh, if you have a dietary indiscretion, I have a dietary indiscretion, you know, then I know what I need to do and what I need not to do for the next day.&nbsp;<br><br>And that's what most people that really, I'm gonna say finish the program, but keep in contact, keep follow ups and stuff like that. That is what they say, is that it is life changing in that even the weight can be life changing to get your knees done and you know, those kinds of things, but just the fact of picking out foods and you know, I have people bring in their favorite restaurant recipes or we look them up together online and they tell me what they would pick And I don't, nope, that's not what I would be And they're like really? But that has more cheese in it, jesus protein and fat. No, I don't have sound of it. But it's the cheese on your salad. You want a little cheese that adds what you need. Yeah. Got to make a difference for everybody. Right. Right. Okay.&nbsp;<br><br>So big question now, so we're coming to like my most favorite and least favorite time of the year. Okay. We're hitting that last six weeks that time between thanksgiving and New Year's. When everybody brings out their favorite dessert, their most fattening foods.&nbsp;<br><br>Okay, let's help me get through the entire um I used to think starting a weight loss program at this time of year was the worst thing I could do for patients. It's the best thing because you're being helped and advised along the way what to eat. So, I happened to write down for you my recommendations.&nbsp;<br><br>Great.&nbsp;<br><br>All right. When you're going to go to like a sit down dinner first of all, you have to have a plan. If you know if you're cooking it's a lot easier. But if other people are bringing things are going to somebody else else try to find out what the menu is and have a plan. All right. I'm not going to have any desserts. I'm not going to have any desserts four man, she makes that great or including or whatever and okay I'm going to have and then you fill in the blank X. Amount. I'm going to have half a cup. Uh huh. A teaspoon. You know what is it? Or I can live without corn pudding another year will come and I can have another. So that's the first thing that just to have a plan. And the other thing that you kind of alluded to is this becomes a time of the year when gluttony is approved of and accepted and then you feel terrible and guilty and physically uncomfortable and so gotta get we've got to get that out of our breaks.&nbsp;<br><br>This is the time to be with people and loved ones and enjoy whatever holidays you're doing with them and two it's not about celebrating the food, it's that secondary. And so once you know I tell everybody I said you know you have a lot easier time talking to at Alice if your mouth is full of food. So make the focus on the people and have a plan about what you are going to eat. And when you sit down at that table, the first thing you do is the ham, turkey, chicken, fish, whatever it is, eat that first because we need protein. We don't need carbohydrates. We like carbohydrates for for some energy and um for that warm tummy feeling and maybe a little little carbohydrate buzz there for a little while but we don't need them, we need the fiber, but we don't need the vegetable itself. So eat the protein first and then you're also not. And so you can decide, you know, I was going to eat a cup of this, but I think I can do with two tablespoons that kind of thing.&nbsp;<br><br>So and then the other thing that's important, not just for the holidays, but all all year round is water intake. You need to have at least 64 oz of water a day and before you go to any meal or anybody's house, add that bottle of water in the car, you know, on the countertops or something so that you can be well hydrated that fills your stomach, couple that looks down the acid in there. So you're not getting all those rum please. And you have a better decision making when you sit down the table. So drink water. Focus on the people eat the protein first, watch the alcohol a lot of calories and then it impairs your judgment and you're like, I'm not eating any dessert and then you have a couple glasses of wine, which I would not recommend. But you drink something and then all of a sudden I'll just have one pizza pie. That looks good too. And it just so really sample plate, right? Exactly. So I mean obviously not drinking at all is better because it saves calories and preserves your judgment, but if you're going to drink, I prefer you not drink wine and beer. I prefer that you have a cocktail with some kind of hard liquor. I don't know what you call this, A zero calorie mixer and that way you can be part of everything and nobody is giving you grief and and because the hard liquor doesn't have any carbohydrates in it. Got the calories, but not the carbohydrates.&nbsp;<br><br>Okay, this is a funny one I put on your geography, but what that really means is if there's a buffet, you know any, this is I say these are holiday tips, but this is any occasion. You know, you're going to a wedding, a graduation party or whatever. You know, don't stand next to the buffet because it might be a good thing that you're grabbing. But you know, eating the whole veggie plate isn't, you should be doing, it seems like a good choice, but it's serving size is part of this decision making process as well. And then if it's catered orders, stand next to the kitchen door, there's always going to be a full plate coming out right in front of you and all the smells and stuff. So once again at the buffet, fill up your plate, go away and talk to people and be part of the oh and the other thing, I think this is becoming more and more important, more and more people I talked to is the stress of the extended family or friends or you know this is the only time of year you get together and you know so don't let that make don't let that make you eat. You don't like somebody say hello to be polite and then move away instead of going I'm just going to have all this stuff and I'll show them and I don't know. But the stress of how they get togethers can be can be very hard for some people and just you're in control of the fuel going in so be in control.&nbsp;<br><br>Well thank you Dr Whilrey-Diaz for such great information.

At a cocktail party, you would kind of mingle around, get to know people find out what they do or where they're from, and just kind of create conversation, creating a relationship with them, and then maybe that conversation will lead to what do you do for work or maybe exchange business cards or something of that nature.&nbsp;<br><br>So don't go into social media and just for the purpose of making a sale. Create those relationships. I liked how it talked about a worldwide rave and this is something that everyone wants to share. So you've seen those, videos or cute little picture clips that get millions of shares and so some tips on rules of a worldwide rave to keep in mind would include; you are the only one who cares about your product, it doesn't require a discount, be involved with the community and you need a trigger to get people to share. So it has to be something that's valuable or interesting or funny. How can you take something in your industry, your product, and make it valuable, interesting, or funny that people want to share that? So that's something to think through the process. It had a section where shared ways to get information out there and we all know this, but I always think it's good to review.&nbsp;<br><br>Go back to the basics, blogs, audio, video, photo chats or graphs, slide presentations like slide share long-form of written content, research and survey reports, email newsletters. But your email newsletters had a really specific area on focus on solving their problems, not just on selling products, but focus on solving their problems.&nbsp;<br><br>Webinars, e-books, and white papers and went through whole information about making your ebooks, something that people want to get because you're solving again a problem or you're giving out information. That's how you're getting their information to continue building your email list so that you can continue reaching out to them. It had a section on tips for creating thoughtful content. So right to answer questions and solve problems. In which case, there are a couple of websites on there and I'll put the links below, but you can actually put in a topic and it will give you a list of questions that people are asking. One of them is "Answer the Public",&nbsp; but I will look and leave a link below and what the other one is, decide if your content is free or registered for. So I went through a whole detail about the fact that if your content is free, you're gonna have a lot more people getting the content. If you request that they register, it's like they have to give their name and their email, you'll have fewer people getting that information. So you need to decide if your information is strong enough in the free content. That will make people respond or make people do what you want them to do or is it information that's a little bit weak and you definitely need to follow up, I don't wanna say weak, but maybe it's not as strong.&nbsp;<br><br>And so you really in order for you to follow up, you want to make sure you get their email.&nbsp;<br><br>Use examples and stories, use attention-grabbing titles and subtitles, and then promote the content like crazy some interesting information on optimizing your social media to target a specific audience. And I think that's the hardest one. I've always struggled with that as far as narrowing down your specific avatar when my husband and I were photographing a lot of weddings, we knew our specific bride, we obviously spoke to the bride's was between the age of 25 to 35, a professional and this is the first marriage that that was our perfect bride. Now that I'm working more in marketing, it's really harder to narrow down those people. It's harder to with the one company I know it's specific niche business owners, male and probably between the age of 30 and 45. But it's just really hard to narrow those down. But I realized that I understand the importance of narrowing that down because it gives you more detail and more areas to target.&nbsp;<br><br>Share below what is your perfect avatar? What niche do you have how do you narrow down your specific target audience, create thoughtful content, be authentic and transparent and create a lot of links, encourage people to contact you to participate? Make it easy to find you and experiment. So which of those do you feel like you need to work on in the idea of sharing?&nbsp;<br><br>It gave these three tips to focus on what you're giving away rather than the product you are sharing. Don't hold anything back and people love to share. As long as you give them something that's worth sharing.&nbsp;<br><br>Also had a whole detailed area on news releases. So find reasons to send them out all the time. Don't wait for a specific big award or something that looked for ways of sitting out news releases all the time. And I do believe that news releases are very helpful and we have some different areas that we build upon our news releases for clients. And I do think that is a really good way not only to get your information out there, but also get the backlinks that you need to promote those items right to appeal directly to your buyers. Include offers, links to landing pages, link to content on your website, and share your news releases on social media and then some ideas for news releases may be a new take on an old problem. So maybe you have a new strategy that you're using on something that a lot of people are dealing with your serving a unique marketplace interesting information. Are you speaking at an event? Did you win an award? Do you have a new product? Did you win a new customer or are you publishing a white paper? Those are some great ideas on how to use news releases to be effective.&nbsp;<br><br>Those are just a few basic pieces of information here. Let me tell you a little bit about the chart that I like. And one side is publishing information for your buyers. So it suggests using blogs, news websites, guest blogs, post testimonials, speaker bios, expert articles, industry partners, blog directories, news releases, affiliates, awards, galleries, infographics, events and read it streaming video and newsjacking on the other side to drive action if you're wanting them to if the goal is to purchase something to make sure that you have to make it easy to buy Upsell and continually reaching out to them if the information is to get their contact information, make sure you have a really easy contact us found to book an appointment, email us, make sure that you're easily easy to connect with. If you're wanting a connection with them, make sure you have a subscription to the email newsletter, a marketing funnel with an email, autoresponder webinars, and contact and connect to social media. If you're dealing with free downloads, make sure you have flagship content, ebook templates, slide share. And just so I really like how this shares really focused on these ideas and how they all connect together. So I really would love to find out which ones do you already use and what do you think you should be using?&nbsp;<br><br>Again, the book is the new rules of marketing NPR it's by David Mermin Scott and I think it's definitely worth reading a great book. I really enjoyed it. Thought it had some really good use now information. So for those of you who share in the comments, then we're gonna have a free drawing for one of these books. I'm going to send it to you directly and if you are watching us on youtube, make sure to like us and subscribe so that we can make sure that you see next week's issue and if you're not a member of our giant builder's Facebook group, please look for us and join us.

This is the giant builders with Lois Wyant.&nbsp;<br><br>You can also see us on YouTube if you are more of a visual person: &nbsp;<br>https://youtu.be/-eJmfpdQa2o<br><br>Hello, welcome to the giant builders. I am Lois I am your host, I am very excited to have you here. This is a new project for me and I think we're going to learn a lot together and just experience life together. So one thing I do assure you is that you're going to get the real me, the tousled hair, the casual clothes, the chipped nail polish, I'm a real person and you're gonna see the real me. I'm going to be very open with you and share some experiences together.&nbsp;<br><br>We're going to look at the four pillars of life and grow together with those. So the four pillars of life would be your business, whether you work for somebody or you have your own business or wish to start your own business, your family, your spirituality, and your health. So those are the four areas that will always be targeted on each episode will focus on a particular pillar.&nbsp;<br><br>But for now, I just want to get to know you, let you get to know me. So why the giant builders? I feel that in my life I have had opportunities to build multiple giants. So in business, my husband, in church, leading life groups and Sunday school, at home, our Children. So I feel like I've been participating in helping build giants throughout my life and so now it's time to, I guess you say build my giant and I want to help you build your giant, so your giant might be you, it might be your Children, it might be your husband, it might be your business.&nbsp;<br><br>So let's talk about what your giant is. So if I read the dictionary term a giant, it will say a person or thing of unusually great size, power, importance et cetera. A major figure legend in that definition the one point that stands out to me is important. So there are very many important things in our lives and we just have to figure out how to juggle them.<br><br>And this all came to a perspective for me as since we were in winter in Indiana and it seems like it lasts for a long time. Plus putting that with some quarantine in effect. Then my husband and I put some puzzles together. And we actually worked on three puzzles and each puzzle was difficult in its own fashion.<br><br>So the first puzzle was really hard because it was 2000 pieces. The second puzzle was 500 pieces. But it was really hard because usually in a puzzle, all the pieces are the same size. Well this puzzle, all the pieces are different sizes. So if you're looking at the puzzle and you're like okay that one has two bumps and one inside. It may not be a piece that has two bumps and one inside. It might be a piece that was one bump, and the inside part is on another piece.&nbsp; So it was just really hard because the pieces were so different. And the third puzzle was hard because it was also 500 pieces. But it was, it was hard because multiple pieces were the same shape. So you had to really pay attention to the colors and the design and how they work together. And even towards the end of the puzzle, we found out that we had to edge pieces switched because they looked like they fit together because they were leaves and they looked like they went together, but none of the other pieces would go together. We were down to like 20 pieces and nothing else fit together because these two pieces were in the wrong place. And so we had to switch those pieces to finish the puzzle.&nbsp;<br><br>So my question to you is which puzzle does your life feel like right now, Do you feel like there are just too many pieces? It's just hard to put your life together because there are just so many pieces sitting out in front of you and you just aren't sure where to start.&nbsp; Are your pieces just a lot of different shapes? So it's hard to tell where they go together or in your life puzzle. &nbsp; Are there pieces that are looking the same and you have to figure out why the colors and the situations which piece goes where. So I hope that through our journey together that no matter which puzzle your life is in, you may finish this puzzle and you may go into another puzzle that is a completely different situation. I hope that together we can work your puzzle out.&nbsp;<br><br>Let me share a little bit about myself, I'm a Christian, a wife, mother and GG, so I really feel that it's in that order of importance for me. The number one thing is to continuously build my relationship with my Lord and Savior. The second most important is to continually build my relationship with my husband and then, even though our Children are all grown up, I want to be there for them and I want to be there to help shape our grandchildren and then also I'm a business owner and I think that if you focus on your important items, your other items fall in place, just like trying to put this first episode together. So many challenges came up, I mean I had multiple puzzle pieces dropped on my plate and I just couldn't get to it, it was really hard, but now that I'm here sitting in front of you, I'm really excited to be here and I want to share with you some of my ideas that are going through my head as to what we want to do.&nbsp;<br><br>I hope to bring to you some great speakers, some great presenters that will share wisdom to you on your four pillars, your spiritual, your health, your family, and your business, my goal is to help you grow in different ideas as far as ideas on how to share with your children, ideas on how to build up your husband, ideas on what to do for your business or how to add to your business, but also ideas on how to take care of yourself. You've got to take care of yourself and love yourself as well.&nbsp;<br><br>I do enjoy reading and I do want to share with you some of the great books that I have learned from. It might help you grow and will help you learn and we might even have some authors join us so that will be fun.&nbsp;<br><br>I also want to do some giveaways on some of the episodes, I'll share with you what that giveaway will be. You'll have until the day before the next episode to enter for that drawing. So make sure you listen to the episodes towards the end. So you know what that particular drawing would be.

This is the giant builders with Lois Wyant.&nbsp;<br><br>You can also see us on YouTube if you are more of a visual person: &nbsp;<br>https://youtu.be/-eJmfpdQa2o<br><br>Hello, welcome to the giant builders. I am Lois I am your host, I am very excited to have you here. This is a new project for me and I think we're going to learn a lot together and just experience life together. So one thing I do assure you is that you're going to get the real me, the tousled hair, the casual clothes, the chipped nail polish, I'm a real person and you're gonna see the real me. I'm going to be very open with you and share some experiences together.&nbsp;<br><br>We're going to look at the four pillars of life and grow together with those. So the four pillars of life would be your business, whether you work for somebody or you have your own business or wish to start your own business, your family, your spirituality, and your health. So those are the four areas that will always be targeted on each episode will focus on a particular pillar.&nbsp;<br><br>But for now, I just want to get to know you, let you get to know me. So why the giant builders? I feel that in my life I have had opportunities to build multiple giants. So in business, my husband, in church, leading life groups and Sunday school, at home, our Children. So I feel like I've been participating in helping build giants throughout my life and so now it's time to, I guess you say build my giant and I want to help you build your giant, so your giant might be you, it might be your Children, it might be your husband, it might be your business.&nbsp;<br><br>So let's talk about what your giant is. So if I read the dictionary term a giant, it will say a person or thing of unusually great size, power, importance et cetera. A major figure legend in that definition the one point that stands out to me is important. So there are very many important things in our lives and we just have to figure out how to juggle them.<br><br>And this all came to a perspective for me as since we were in winter in Indiana and it seems like it lasts for a long time. Plus putting that with some quarantine in effect. Then my husband and I put some puzzles together. And we actually worked on three puzzles and each puzzle was difficult in its own fashion.<br><br>So the first puzzle was really hard because it was 2000 pieces. The second puzzle was 500 pieces. But it was really hard because usually in a puzzle, all the pieces are the same size. Well this puzzle, all the pieces are different sizes. So if you're looking at the puzzle and you're like okay that one has two bumps and one inside. It may not be a piece that has two bumps and one inside. It might be a piece that was one bump, and the inside part is on another piece.&nbsp; So it was just really hard because the pieces were so different. And the third puzzle was hard because it was also 500 pieces. But it was, it was hard because multiple pieces were the same shape. So you had to really pay attention to the colors and the design and how they work together. And even towards the end of the puzzle, we found out that we had to edge pieces switched because they looked like they fit together because they were leaves and they looked like they went together, but none of the other pieces would go together. We were down to like 20 pieces and nothing else fit together because these two pieces were in the wrong place. And so we had to switch those pieces to finish the puzzle.&nbsp;<br><br>So my question to you is which puzzle does your life feel like right now, Do you feel like there are just too many pieces? It's just hard to put your life together because there are just so many pieces sitting out in front of you and you just aren't sure where to start.&nbsp; Are your pieces just a lot of different shapes? So it's hard to tell where they go together or in your life puzzle. &nbsp; Are there pieces that are looking the same and you have to figure out why the colors and the situations which piece goes where. So I hope that through our journey together that no matter which puzzle your life is in, you may finish this puzzle and you may go into another puzzle that is a completely different situation. I hope that together we can work your puzzle out.&nbsp;<br><br>Let me share a little bit about myself, I'm a Christian, a wife, mother and GG, so I really feel that it's in that order of importance for me. The number one thing is to continuously build my relationship with my Lord and Savior. The second most important is to continually build my relationship with my husband and then, even though our Children are all grown up, I want to be there for them and I want to be there to help shape our grandchildren and then also I'm a business owner and I think that if you focus on your important items, your other items fall in place, just like trying to put this first episode together. So many challenges came up, I mean I had multiple puzzle pieces dropped on my plate and I just couldn't get to it, it was really hard, but now that I'm here sitting in front of you, I'm really excited to be here and I want to share with you some of my ideas that are going through my head as to what we want to do.&nbsp;<br><br>I hope to bring to you some great speakers, some great presenters that will share wisdom to you on your four pillars, your spiritual, your health, your family, and your business, my goal is to help you grow in different ideas as far as ideas on how to share with your children, ideas on how to build up your husband, ideas on what to do for your business or how to add to your business, but also ideas on how to take care of yourself. You've got to take care of yourself and love yourself as well.&nbsp;<br><br>I do enjoy reading and I do want to share with you some of the great books that I have learned from. It might help you grow and will help you learn and we might even have some authors join us so that will be fun.&nbsp;<br><br>I also want to do some giveaways on some of the episodes, I'll share with you what that giveaway will be. You'll have until the day before the next episode to enter for that drawing. So make sure you listen to the episodes towards the end. So you know what that particular drawing would be.
