Space Dreams to Reality: Diallo Wallace on Youth & STEM

Driven Livin’: https://drivenlivin.com Join the Drive Collective: https://drivenlivin.com/community What happens when a childhood dream of space becomes a mission to help young people believe their dreams belong to them, too? On The Wellness Driven Life Show, April Chavez welcomes Diallo Wallace, naval aviator, aerospace engineer, educator, analog astronaut, and founder of TESSA, a program that opens real doors for high school students in aerospace, engineering, aviation, and space careers. Diallo shares the story behind his own path into aviation and space, from the Space Shuttle Columbia launch that sparked his imagination to the mentors, failures, and hard-won lessons that shaped his journey. He also explains why the real work in STEM is not only technical, but human: helping young people see themselves as capable, supported, and ready to contribute. In this episode, we explore: ⚡ How one childhood spark can become a lifelong mission. ⚡ Why grit, failure, and support are part of real growth. ⚡ The importance of youth mentorship in aerospace and STEM. ⚡ Why the future of space depends on the human factor as much as the technology. ⚡ How to quiet outside noise and listen to the inner voice that says, "Yes, you can." From analog missions in the Arctic to credit-bearing aerospace courses for students, Diallo's work is about widening the path so the next generation can rise with confidence.

On The Wellness Driven Life Show, April Chavez welcomes Lisa Warner and Maura Leon S. of Whole BEing Healing for a conversation about self-healing, emotional truth, conscious community, and the body's natural ability to restore balance. Lisa and Maura share how their healing paths led them to a deeper relationship with their bodies, emotions, and inner guidance. Lisa talks about shifting from "Why me?" to "What do I need to know about this to heal myself?" while Maura speaks to the role of self-love, relationships, and standing in your own authority in wellness. Learn more: https://www.wholebeinghealing.life [https://www.wholebeinghealing.life].  In this episode, we explore: * Why the body may be responding to the inputs around it rather than betraying us. * How self-love and self-responsibility shape health, relationships, and healing. * Why community, safe sharing, and being witnessed can support transformation. * How Lisa and Maura are building Whole BEing Healing through a 12-week experiential mentoring group, leadership training, and a global online community. Together, they remind us that our bodies are designed to heal, our inner wisdom is real, and we are far more powerful than we have been allowed to know.

Loving Longevity: James B. Flaherty on Making Your Next Years Your Best Years

What if aging wasn't about shrinking your life, but widening it? On The Wellness Driven Life Show, April Chavez welcomes back James B. Flaherty, author, speaker, and former advertising creative director, now 90 and still writing, creating, connecting, and living with intention. In his new book, LOVING LONGEVITY: Make your next years your best years, Jim offers a practical and heartfelt message: longevity is not just about years, it is about gratitude, discipline, usefulness, and the people who keep life feeling full. He shares the daily rhythms that support his own vitality — morning gratitude, healthy eating, exercise, a full schedule, meaningful friendships, and the choice to show up for life with humor and care. In this episode, we explore: * Why connection and community matter so much for long life and well-being. * How small daily disciplines shape energy, mood, and purpose. * Why service, courtesy, and making others feel better are part of living well. * How Jim continues to create, write, and stay engaged at 90. Jim is the author of five books, a former international advertising creative director, creator of an iconic country inn, and a man who believes life is a gift worth honoring every day. His message is simple and powerful: stay grateful, stay useful, stay connected, and make your next year count.
