Kathy Murphy, life coach, writer, inspirational speaker, and owner of The Rising Tide, joins Dr. Bunny to discuss letting life live you, and what that actually means.  Kathy shares the story of how she came to realize that listening to her inner voice had much better results than trying to direct & control things – and it was such a beautiful unfolding!

Kathy tells us how she helps her clients call upon the ‘greater energy of the world’ to achieve their goals with ease and grace, instead of struggle and stress.

This is such a delightfully uplifting interview. Tune in and prepare to be inspired!

About Kathy Murphy:

Unfortunately, too many women leaders fail to recognize that for us to be an effective leader of others in our work and life, we must first be our most powerful self-leader.

I understand you have tried several types of self-help programs. You have tried meditation to help you find peace and deal with stress, worry, and anxiety. You have also found there is never enough time or energy to do all that your circumstances require, let alone get any time for yourself.

If this describes where you’re currently at, as a leader of your business, or business you work for, please know there is hope…

There is a way to do life differently, think different, see different and navigate with ease and grace. It is your true nature.

As an Energetic life coach, I am passionate about waking women up to new choices and possibilities that they already have inside. I love empowering women to overcome the greatest challenges that are preventing them from working so hard at work and home, to seeing a way for them to be a more powerful leader in their own lives and as a result leading their employees and family in a whole new way.

Over the past four years and a lifetime of being just like you, working hard, and doing it all, I have perfected a totally different way to help women stop managing thoughts, and recognize them for what they are. Your thoughts shape who you are. You can work hard at it to change them, or you can see for yourself how we create our life experiences and a better life you desire shows up immediately. When you realize who you really are, not who you think you are, you become your most powerful self-leader. Everyone you lead steps up and does the same for themselves by your leadership.

My name is Kathy Murphy and my desire is to provide you with an easy way to become your most powerful self-leader. I have a movement and business called The Rising Tide. I am a certified health/life/NLP coach, author, singer, songwriter, surfer, inspirational speaker, and mom. I have previous experience as a peace officer/firefighter/supervisor/manager/ and spent 9 years in a political position. I have survived and thrived through cancer, lyme disease, RA, loss of family, loss of job, divorce, and anxiety. It is my life’s purpose to help you to Rise and Thrive.

For those willing to see something new, there is hope. And the fact that you are reading this tells me there’s something inside of you telling you there’s more. Fortunately for you, there is. I would love to connect with you!

Shelley Stockwell-Nicholas, founder of the International Hypnosis Federation, joins Dr. Bunny at HypnoThoughts Live 2020 in Las Vegas, Nevada, to discuss attention, intention, hypnosis, and so much more!

Due to Covid-19, HypnoThoughts Live was a bit different this year, but both Dr. Bunny and Shelley enjoyed it immensely. Shelley tells us why she feels like she’s with her best friends when she’s at HypnoThoughts Live.

Shelley also shares her tips on how to wade thru all the data that is being pushed at us right now.  She says we need to not only pay attention, we also need to have intention.  Shelley explains exactly what that means, and how to get a handle on your thoughts.

Join us for an informative, uplifting, and fun interview!

About the International Hypnosis Federation:

Since 1994, the IHF has promoted acceptance of the diverse inter-discipline use of hypnosis with a broad range of applications. We are unique among organizations because our members and those interested in self-improvement and mind mastery often choose additionally specialty recognition and join our various related hypnosis divisions: integrative and stand-alone medical and dental work, mindfulness, neuro-linguistics (NLP}, coaching, guided imagery, motivation, conflict resolution, art therapy, spiritual counseling, entertainment and research. We offer referrals, professional certification training, workshops, conferences and networking opportunities for practitioners and the public. We encourage interaction with other disciplines, clinicians and researchers who use hypnosis in their work.

WHY EXPERIENCE HYPNOSIS?

Your professional hypnotist evokes a natural mind state where you easily take on beneficial suggestions and ideas and do away with limiting or hurtful attitudes and behaviors.

With hypnosis and self-hypnosis, you’re motivated to achieve worthwhile results, make contact with your wisest self and tap your full potentials and talents.

Researchers prove again and again that hypnosis benefits people mentally, emotionally, energetically, physically and neurologically. (For a comprehensive fifty-page document of scientific studies call 310-541-4844 or email your request to: ihf@cox.net)

HOW DO I SELECT A QUALIFIED HYPNOTIST?

To select a qualified hypnosis practitioner take heed: A professional hypnotist, hypnotherapist, hypno-coach, hypno-counselor and wellness provider has training and experience in hypnosis to help you achieve your specific goals and interests.

Just because someone is licensed or credentialed in another discipline (I.e. medicine, therapy, dentistry, psychology, mindfulness, social work, or nursing) does not mean they have studied hypnosis or are capable of using it as an adjunct to their other work. Only a small percentage of licensed helpers take time to be certified in hypnosis

Hypnosis, Hypnotherapy, Hypno-Counseling and Hypnosis-Coaching are stand-alone certified professions. Professional Hypnotists generally have hundreds of hours of training in hypnosis.

To reduce confusion ask yourself, “Does this practitioner have the expertise in hypnosis to help me reach my goals?” And “Is there a sense of rapport with them?”

Members of the International Hypnosis Federation adhere to a fine code of ethics (available for your review at www.hypnosisfederation.com) and regulations of their places of practice. If you have further questions regarding whom to consult for your well-being, feel free to call IHF at 310 541-4844.

Bill “Blinky” Hubina, owner of Ventura Surf Shop, joins Dr. Bunny to discuss surfing and how his business is doing during the COVID-19 pandemic. Surfing has become even more popular during the pandemic because it’s a sport that’s done out in the fresh air, and Blinky tells us how he and his wife have navigated the waters during this unprecedented time.

Bill also tells us about the fascinating history of Ventura Surf Shop. They are a true local surf shop, selling custom new and used surf boards, accessories, and wetsuits. They’ve been around for so long, they’ve had the same phone number since 1967!

Tune in for a great interview and be sure to stop in to Ventura Surf Shop to support local businesses!

About Ventura Surf Shop:

Ventura Surf shop was started in the early sixties by Tom Hale. Tom had been building boards with V.I.P., Ventura International Plastics in the late fifties. VIP was owned by Bill Fisher with the shop located on Olive Street.  The shop sold fiberglass, cloth, resin & laminated surfboards. VIP went on to a new factory on Callens Rd. where they produced boards “Pop Outs” (production boards) Ten Toes, Shark, Tiki and the Duke Kahanamoky boards. Boards were sold to mass merchandisers like Sears and Federated. Tom left VIP to open a small shop in 1962, located at 235 W. Santa Clara St. where he made custom Tom Hale surfboards. In 1963 Tom Morey moved to Ventura recruiting Tom Hale to be his shaper and moved into the small shop on Santa Clara St. with Hale. Morey made Australian surfboards and Tom Morey skeg works (aka TRAF Fins). According to Tom Hale the polypropylene fins while being shaped with a grinder smelled like a fart, (TRAF spelled backwards)! Morey’s wife Jolly was a talented artist and helped Tom Hale design the first Ventura Surf Shop logo for Hale’s custom boards.

In 1964 Morey decided to change the name of his Australian surfboards to Morey, then in 1965 Morey and Karl Pope became partners and opened Morey Pope on Front St. in Ventura. Tom Hale went on to produce his own custom boards nd opened a sales shop on Main Street across from Ventura High School. He eventually closed the Main Street shop and sold boards out of his glassing shop on Callens Rd. Tom made boards in Ventura until 1973 when he moved to San Diego.

In the meantime, Bill “Blinky” Hubina who also worked for Morey on Santa Clara St. became Morey Popes first employee on Front St. In 1967 Blinky and Dennis Ryder left Morey Pope to start William Dennis Surfboards in an industrial building on Callens Rd. Dennis departed the business shortly after it got started. Blinky continued to make William Dennis surfboards. The business grew and eventually Blinky opened a small show room on Thompson Blvd. in the front of the house where he lived. In 1972 Karl Pope who had bought Morey out decided to close Morey-Pope retail shop and start Wave. Wave was a corporation which included surf, wave, and Morey-Pope. Karl Pope moved the new company to Saticoy and in 1973 opened Wave, making honeycomb surfboards.

Blinky took over the Morey-Pope building on Front St. and expanded the William Dennis surfboard business in to it. Where they manufactured William Dennis boards and had a show room. In 1973 when Tom Hale left Ventura the employees started answering the phone “William Dennis” Ventura Surf Shop and assumed the name.

The Ventura Surf Shop was sold to Stan Fujii in 1980. Stan changed the sign on the shop on Front St. from William Dennis to The Ventura Surf Shop in 1986. Stan started making Fujii surfboards, then in 1995 Stan moved the shop to its current location at 88 E. Thompson Blvd.  Stan ran the business for 20 years until he sold it to Mark Ellison in 2000 along with his managing partner Bill Blinky Hubina.

Blinky and his wife, Mignonne purchased the shop in 2012 from Mark and continue to run it today along with his son Robert Hubina.

The Ventura Surf Shop has a long history in the surfing community, it is a true surf shop, selling custom new and used surf boards, accessories and wetsuits. 

There are over 300 new boards and 200 used boards for sale. This hard core surf shop offers customs boards by William Dennis, Campbell Bros., Wayne Rich, Roberts, Dennis Ryder, Klaus Jones and Spence.

Simone Kvalheim joins Dr. Bunny for an extremely interesting conversation about her journey from Zimbabwe to America, and so much more!

Simone shares the story of how she originally started in medical school, but failed to be able to do an autopsy in the first year. This failure was very difficult for her, but it led her to search for a different career path.  She eventually signed up to become a trainee buyer for a chain of stores.

The interesting thing is that Simone hated sewing, but she was still drawn to being a buyer.  What really struck home for her was that, as a trainee buyer, she was able to travel all over the world.  And travel the world she did!  For seven years, Simone lived in Cape Town, South Africa, and traveled between Cape Town and the rest of the world!  She became a senior buyer and absolutely loved it!

Simone also shares the very personal story of how she discovered the truth about why she looks so different than her four sisters, as well as what brought her to America.

So what does it mean when Simone calls herself a White African American Latina?  Well, simply put, Simone’s father was from England, she was born in Zimbabwe, her mother is from Spain, and Simone is very honored and blessed to live in the United States.  There you have it!

Simone is such a lovely person and a true inspiration.  Tune in for a great interview!

Simone Kvalheim is the Director of LifeWave, a company that produces patented, proprietary wellness products to deliver more energy, better sleep, reduced stress, sharper mental focus, and an overall feeling of youthful vitality.  If you’d like to learn more about LifeWave, contact Simone Kvalheim at (760) 953-9484 (text preferred) and please write “Dr. Bunny” in the text so she knows you heard the information on this show.

Jim Cathcart, CSP, CPAE, Professional Mentor, incredible musician, and bestselling author of 20 books, joins Dr. Bunny to discuss motivation, inspiration, and what being a professional mentor is all about.

Talking with Jim, it’s clear to see why he has been so successful. He is filled to the brim with positive energy – yes, even during this Covid-19 crisis!  Jim is one of the most award winning professional speakers in the world and he has devoted his time to helping others succeed. In 2019 he spent 71 days inside China doing lecture tours and has spoken in 21 cities there. Jim’s TEDx video “How to Believe in Yourself” is in their Top 1% with over 2 million views.
 
But recently, Jim said “I am no longer a professional speaker, I’m a professional mentor”!  How did he come to that decision? What does that mean, and how can it help YOU?
 
Jim’s own life reflects the truth that he walks his talk: Jim does 100 pushups every day (hasn’t missed a day in over 1,200 days), runs mountain trails 3 days a week, plays guitar professionally, and has ridden his motorcycle all around the world. He’s been married to Paula Cathcart for 50 years, as of 2020!
 
Tune in to learn more – and get inspired!
 
More about Jim Cathcart:
A TV interviewer said, “Jim Cathcart is what ‘Fonzie’ would have been if he’d gone to business school.” (Millennials are asking, “Who is Fonzie?”) Jim was an insurance agent for many years, an Army officer and a bill collector who, while in his twenties, had to repossess log trucks in the mountains of northern Arkansas. From this varied background he decided in 1972 to become an authority on the subject of motivation and through decades of dedication, study and hard work, he made it happen.

Myofunctional therapist, Barbara Greene, joins Dr. Bunny today to discuss an incredibly interesting and informative topic – Oral facial Myofunctional Therapy and tongue thrust issues.

Oral facial myofunctional therapy my not be something that you’ve ever heard of, but you have likely seen the conditions that this therapy can help (for instance, a child who has sucked their thumb, affecting the shape of the palate and more).

Having tongue thrust issues brings more than just visual symptoms, and you may be surprised to learn how many people have this issue. Tongue thrust issues result in a mouth-breathing & always being congested, orthodontic problems, speech problems, dental issues, and so much more – and many people don’t recognize it! As much as 85% of the population has a tongue thrust issue, and yet instead of dealing with the core problem (tongue thrust), they are treating the allergy symptoms, speech problems, etc. – and they are getting nowhere!

Barbara shares the story of how she became a Myofacial Therapist, and why she was her own first client.

Tune in and learn more about how oral facial myofunctional therapy and how incredibly helpful it can be!

About myfunctional therapy:

The purpose of myofunctional therapy is to eliminate poor habit patterns (such as thumb sucking, nail biting, other biting /sucking habits), normalizing the freeway space, improve cosmesis with lips-together rest posture, achieve nasal breathing, establish normal function of the tongue at rest and during the swallow, create a normal and harmonious oral-facial muscle environment, and restore equilibrium to the mouth, face, head, neck, and body by changing function and behaviors. An easier way to think of it is we teach you to “chew, breathe, and swallow” a new way.

Myofunctional therapy is a program of exercises that helps you stop oral and facial habits that can ruin your smile, change your appearance and sap your health. It retrains the muscles of your mouth, jaw and face, bringing them into harmony. And it instills new and positive habits to make sure those changes last.

“Myo” can help you:

STOP a tongue thrust habit.

START breathing through your nose instead of your mouth.

QUIT thumb-sucking, nail-biting, lip/cheek-chewing or other poor habits.

OVERCOME unsightly manners of eating and drinking.

IMPROVE head-neck-body posture.

PREVENT or correct Long Face Syndrome.

ESTABLISH a harmonious oral environment.

BETTER DEAL with issues such as speech problems, sleep apnea, snoring, digestion, clenching/grinding habits and TMJ disorders.

Myofunctional therapy is suitable for everyone from age 4 on up, but treatment around the age of 7 or 8 is ideal. This is because oral habits are less ingrained at this stage and easier to change, encouraging normal dental growth.

But patients of all ages can benefit. Motivation and commitment are the keys to success.

About Barbara Greene:

Therapist, teacher, speaker and author Barbara J. Greene, was first trained in oral-facial myology by the visionary teachers Daniel Garliner, MA, and Roy Langer, PhD, at their Institute of Myofunctional Therapy in Coral Gables, Florida. She began her practice in 1971 while pursuing further study with other notable therapists, including Richard Barrett, MA, in Tucson, Arizona, and William Zickefoose, BA, COM, in Sacramento, California. Since then, Barbara has helped hundreds of children and adults correct their myofunctional disorders by guiding them through a simple, year-long therapeutic program to establish and maintain proper oral-facial function.

In 2017, Barbara was named the first ever recipient of the Florence Nightingale Trophy, for Vision, Enterprise, and Passion (pictured above) from the Academy of Applied Myofunctional Sciences, recognizing her 46 years dedicated to the field.

Bonnie Atmore, co-founder of the Rancho Ventura Conservation Trust, joins Dr. Bunny to discuss a love story – but it’s not just a simple love story about a relationship (although the relationship part is wonderful, too!).

This is a story about the love of the land, as well as the love of a man, the love of new children in her life, and so much more.

We all go through transformations and shifts in life, and Bonnie shares about some of those transformations that have happened in her own life – and the reason why she finds herself giddy with love & happiness at 51 years of age.

Bonnie tells us how the Rancho Ventura Conservation Trust came about (an incredible story!) and how having an opportunity to do something that is “bigger than us” is truly an honor.  She also shares exciting info about some great new programs and events, how you can participate, and how you can get involved!

Tune in for an extra dose of inspiration, love & happiness!  What a great way to start the new year!

About Richard and Bonnie Atmore:

Rancho Ventura’s story started over 120 years ago when Ralph B. Lloyd in 1895 purchased over 1600 acres of the Ventura hillsides.  In 2016 the Lloyd family came to Richard and Bonnie to find a way to conserve the land, keep it in ranching, and be a gathering place for the community.

The longstanding relationship established in 1979 between Richard Atmore and the Lloyd family provided a gateway to stewardship that honors the land’s predecessors while providing a treasured asset to the community. The Rancho Ventura Conservation Trust (a 5013(c) was founded in 2016 by the Atmores with support from a dedicated volunteer Board of Trustees and community partners.

With reverence and a lifetime of caring for the land, Richard with his family carry on the legacy of the Lloyd Family; conserving the land while keeping it in ranching. Bonnie brings over 20 years of not for profit expertise and her deeply rooted connections in the community. Their shared passion to build alliances that open doors for cultural, scenic, and environmental resources along with recreational and inspirational experiences on the land entrusted to Rancho Ventura is felt by all. It is their family’s life time commitment to keep the land in ranching while conserving these working landscapes that provide important habitat to the abundant wildlife that have called these hillsides home for hundreds of years.

The Mission of The Rancho Ventura Conservation Trust:

Our mission is to protect the natural diversity, scenic open space and agricultural vitality of our Ventura County ranch and coastal areas.
