No Purpose Without Love

Ep 25: Developing Psychological Resilience & Overcoming Social Anxiety w/ David Good

Who is David Good? David Good had his software development career taken away from him by a car accident and a subsequent illness. To find a new purpose and to give renewed meaning to his life, David founded the non-partisan, not-for-profit International Friend Connection (IFC) in 2014, a community dedicated to helping people overcome social anxiety through online and in-person events. Today, the IFC has forty-seven chapters and thirty-five thousand members in cities all over the world through the Meetup Platform. For his work in building such a diverse, inclusive, and supportive community, David was appointed by MeetUp CEO David Siegel as the founding brand ambassador for Meetup in 2023. After helping thousands of people beat social anxiety, David Good founded “The Friend Magnet,” a six-week program designed to help those with social anxiety overcome their condition by developing psychological resilience, a growth mindset, emotional intelligence, and real-life social skills. Over the past nine years, his endeavors have been acknowledged with three medals from the President of the United States and was named a Point of Light award winner by the Points of Light Foundation, established by former President George H.W. Bush. David’s passion for solving the social isolation and loneliness crisis continues to this day, inspired by a goal of helping connect one million people over the next ten years.

Ep 23: Nothing Is Impossible For God w/ Mona Giordano

Who is Mona Giordano? Praise God for neglect and abandonment! Praise Him for physical, emotional and sexual abuse! Shout His praise for alcoholism and drug addiction, and give Him glory for chronic illnesses and near-death experiences!!  Why, you might ask, as you shake your head in disbelief? The answer is quite simple. Because, sometimes it takes all those adversities to equip and train you to be an overcomer...a miracle, in the flesh. To be able to minister HOPE to those who are ensnarled and trapped in hopelessness, feeling like they just can’t go on. That is but the “Readers Digest Condensed Version” of what God has saved her from. The culmination of it all and the true test of her faith, came in October of 2010, when the doctors advised her husband to “get your affairs in order, and call in the family. This is it.” Listen to this episode to hear more of Mona's story... you won't want to miss this one!

Ep 21: Balancing Family Life With Work & Business w/ Ergonomics Expert, Kim Granata-Clark

Who is Kim Granata-Clark? Kim is a Certified Applied Ergonomist (CAE) and received a certification as a Remote Ergonomics Assessment Specialist (REAS) in 2020. She has a Masters Degree in Human Factors and Ergonomics and Bachelors Degree in Occupational Therapy from San Jose State University in California. Kim has conducted Ergonomic evaluations as an Ergonomics specialist for close to 20 years in many Silicon Valley, CA companies and looking forward to serving Tampa, FL. Kim loves to find ways to reduce or prevent discomfort in a client’s work area. Sometimes it is as simple as putting a book under the monitor to raise the monitor height, getting a good chair that fits the client, or obtaining a sit to stand workstation to vary their position during the day. Kim has done many Office and Back Safety Training classes for a variety of Silicon Valley, CA companies. Kim was the meeting coordinator for the Bay Area Ergonomics Roundtable (BAER) in Silicon Valley, CA where she helped bring in speakers and vendors to talk to the attendees about many subject matters and show the latest products. Kim is the Your Posture Tutor and wants to prevent or reduce injury one person at a time by educating people about Ergonomics, evaluating their workstations, recommending equipment that will help clients get set up at their workstation ergonomically, and follow-up to make sure the products recommended are working for the client. On a personal note: Kim has been married for 24 years with a 8-year-old daughter. She is a ballroom dancer and she and her husband ran a Ballroom Dance Ministry at their church in California. Kim used to teach Ballroom Dance classes at a couple community centers in her local area in California. Hopefully, there will be plans that she can do this in Tampa. She loves to ballroom dance, she loves to teach ballroom dance class, and sometimes when she talks about posture at a client's workstation, she equates it to a dancing posture. Dancers do not slouch, and we should not either.
