Parents, we play a significant role in educating our kids about avoiding substance abuse, but there is so much we need to know. The opioid epidemic has taken too many of our young people. These addictive painkillers could lead to a dependency on other drugs, such as heroin laced with deadly fentanyl. Where do we turn to the latest information? The Partnership For A Drug-Free New Jersey has valuable tools to help us keep our children safe from drug abuse. In this eye-opening episode, I talk with Angela Conover, their Director of Opioid Prevention. If you have kids or grandkids, take the time to learn this lifesaving information.

Merry Fitness and Happy New Rear! Why Fitness is More Important Over the Holidays

'Tis the season for overeating. During the holidays there is more food, more drink and, unfortunately, more stress.  Physical activity can help reduce stress and give us the energy we need for all of our holiday obligations. Plus, the average American gains between 5 and 7 pounds between Thanksgiving and New Year's. All the more reason to stay active. I talk with Lorelle Ciccita, fitness instructor and owner of Forza Fitness, an online fitness club about the importance of fitness, staying motivated and finding our "why."

FIND JOY WITH GRATITUDE

In 2014 Scott Colby took a trip to Guatemala to help build schools with Hug It Forward that would change his life forever. The people had very little, yet they had a joyous and grateful attitude. Learning about the positive benefits gratitude can have on people, such as more happiness and optimism, Scott decided he wanted to create a gratitude movement called Say It With Gratitude. He created thank you notes with artwork from the children of Guatemala. He went on to write a book called the Grateful Entrepreneur, emphasizing the need for more gratitude in the workplace. We talk about how gratitude can bolster your business and bring more joy to your life.
