Upbeat Synergy with DJ Adrian Smart: Empowering Yourself and Others

Get ready to feel inspired and heartened. In this moving episode, Adrian Smart shares his story for the first time. It’s an incredible story of hope, resilience, grit, love, determination, and humanity. Adrian tells us the personal challenges and tragedies he experienced growing up in Tanzania and South Africa, and how he made his way to the US (it’s a breathtaking story).

If you know/follow Adrian, you see how he infuses positivity into every post/interaction. While his positivity is genuine and authentic, this episode shows a different dimension of Adrian, which makes me appreciate and admire him even more.

This episode gives us what we need to empower ourselves and others. Among the powers we discuss are:

  • controlling what we can

  • listening to understand

  • aligning your energy

  • respecting yourself and others

  • feeling seen and heard

  • seeing and hearing others

  • helping in direct and indirect ways

  • living mindfully

  • acknowledging your good fortune

  • connecting to yourself and others

The power of you.

Don’t get me wrong, this is a feel-good episode, but it’s so much more than that. It’s life- and soul-affirming.

Straight Talk

In this episode, I sit down with my Greek goddess friend, Christina Purcell. Christina is a fellow creative who does photography and raises two beautiful children - much of the time alone, while her husband, Michael Purcell, is off playing professional football for the Denver Broncos.

We cover the bases with this conversation, talking about everything from motherhood to business to LIFE. Christina also shares her experience as an NFL wife, with all the uncertainty, juggling, and shuffling that brings (let’s just say - much respect!).

Christina is a straight talker with a huge heart, and you’ll see why I adore her.
