Join Paula as she riffs about Reflections From Her Seventies. This is a bit humorous as she has only been in her 70’s for 3 weeks! However, she has some strong viewpoints she wants to share about aging, love, COVID-19, and the earth.   All her life, Paula has noticed that when people get older, they seem less concerned about appearances and more concerned with truth and authenticity. They tend to speak their minds without concern for what is PC!   Paula shares some of her secrets and products for staying youthful in spite of her 70 years of going around the sun.   She looks at love and the complicated relationships it can create, and then she talks about how inadequate we will always be at loving relationships until we become really skilled at loving ourselves.   Moving on to COVID-19, Paula looks at some of the gifts of the pandemic and then expresses her strong feelings about masks and the reasons for them.   She wraps it all up with a discussion of global warming, the crisis that exists on the planet, and

Join Paula as she interviews creative Entrepreneur, Brett Hummel, the founder of ProMazo and The 100k Mentor Challenge. She will also be talking to Elizabeth Erwin, a student in this much-needed program that serves college students all over the country.   ProMazo started as a student club because Brett noticed that many college students did not have a clear idea of their career choices. He recognized that the best way for students to gain experience and career knowledge was to participate in work experiences prior to graduation.   Brett realized that with work moving more and more to a virtual scenario, (he had no idea how virtual it would become due to the virus!), there was an opportunity to connect the top 5% of people attending university, who had the latest skills and training, with companies who needed those skills, enabling corporate teams to work side by side on a remote basis. And with that, ProMazo was born.   In the wake of the coronavirus, on-campus events were canceled and many internships and jo

Join Paula as she interviews a courageous, compassionate man. Most people let a terminal cancer diagnosis defeat them but this man turned it into a catalyst to turn his life upside down and become the man he was meant to be.   Cort Davies was diagnosed with Malignant Paraganglioma in November of 2017. He was given just three years to live. Instead of folding under the intense stress of having late-stage cancer, Cort set out on a mission to save his own life.   After 9 surgeries, having half of his bladder removed, and almost being paralyzed, Cort realized his biggest challenge was actually his greatest opportunity. He also realized that chronic stress was a major deterrent in healing for millions of sick people, including himself. Cort went on a  mission to find effective ways of dealing with stress. What he found is saving his life, and his doctors can't believe that he can do what he does at this point.   He has recently brought light to this topic of stress and cancer in a Ted X Talk, and launched a book c

Join Paula as she spontaneously riffs after finding out only an hour before showtime that her guest's hometown was hit by a tornado, so he had no power and was unable to jump online to record with her. Can’t argue with acts of God, so sometimes you just have to improvise!   Paula talks about how to handle the upheaval of unexpected change, stress, and the damage it can do to the body and psyche. Then, she gets into what to do to effectively manage your stress so it doesn’t end up managing you and causing physical illness or psychological/emotional problems. Paula also discusses the 3 kinds of stress and shares processes and techniques for dealing with them.   In her work as a Life Transition Coach, Paula uses the tools of Energy Psychology to help people overcome fear, depression, anger, anxiety, and the myriad of other expressions that come with the upheaval of unexpected change.   These tools bypass the conscious mind which is often rendered useless when emotions overwhelm us. They work directly with the su

Join Paula as she interviews her daughter, Erin Shaw, author of Have Baggage Will Travel. Erin’s fictional novel is delightfully engaging with great characters and a storyline that winds its way through the South with all the color, flavors, and fragrances that part of the country is so well known for.   The story follows a young woman, Kate Larabee, a leading travel expert on assignment, as she travels through the South, needing new sights and experiences to soothe the hurts and wounds of a recent break-up that replaced the proposal she was expecting. The story is loosely based on Erin’s own experiences traveling through the South after a romantic break-up.   She says that it is really a story of self-discovery and of learning to step into one’s personal power, which too often, only happens when life throws us an unexpected curve-ball and we have no other choice. Many of us have been dragged kicking and screaming into what ended up being a definite up-leveling of our lives.   Erin recently completed a screen

Imagine a World where governments respect the human rights of all their citizens, where all people have food, shelter, and access to medical care, and children are born into and raised by healthy families and communities, where literacy and education for all are accomplished facts. These are just a few of the dreams/realities that Paula and guest, Marilyn King, will be talking about on this episode of Change It Up Radio.    Marilyn King is a two-time Olympian Pentathlete who miraculously placed second in her third Olympic trials after months of NO physical training due to an injury from a car accident. All she could do for all of those months was visualize herself training and study films of others doing her events. This incredible feat set the stage for her work today, educating and consulting on using the power of imagery and Olympian Thinking to create Extraordinary Results.    Olympic Thinking combines Passion, Vision, and Appropriate Action to create success... extraordinary success!   Today, Marilyn alo

Join Paula Shaw to talk about Business Grief, which she will be discussing with Anthony McIntosh, President and Founder of SSE Advisors LLC, a business advisory and consulting firm.   Paula and Anthony discuss how the dimensions of grief are impacting business today, during the COVID-19 pandemic.   It's tricky times for many businesses, and even those that are surviving are dealing with the loss of the way it used to be. No one knows for sure what the future holds, and for many businesses, this could spell disaster.    One of the most challenging parts of grief is longing for what we had, "how it used to be," and "the reality we once knew." How often these days do you hear people say, "I just want life to get back to normal"?    We want the comfort of the familiar. We want what most of us have known all of our lives. Handshakes, crowded parties, bars, the buzz of many people chatting in a restaurant, seeing a movie we are excited about on a big screen in a theater, and gathering in our places of worship with

When our lives aren't working the way we want them to, so often we start looking around our outer world for who or what to blame. We try to find the person or circumstance that is causing the turmoil, pain, or lack that we are experiencing.   In this episode of Change It Up Radio, Paula Shaw and guest, Dr. Steve Taubman, discuss the real solution to all of life's problems... going within and changing the way our mind is working.   What is out-picturing in our lives is always a result of the inner picture and beliefs that we are holding. The problem is that usually, those problematic beliefs are subconscious, which means that on a conscious level, we have no idea that we are holding them.   In this riveting discussion, Paula and Steve reveal some important truths about how we can discover the blocks and change the workings of our minds so that we can consciously create what we want in our lives instead of what we don’t want.   To Learn More About the Show, Visit: www.ChangeItUpRadio.com

Join Paula Shaw and Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Mary Sise, in a discussion about the panic and fear aroused by the pandemic, and learn a tool that can work right now to calm your mind and body.     Paula and Mary will be using Meridian Tapping to shift the mind's perception of a situation and cause a physiological, mental, and emotional change.     Meridian tapping began many years ago with the original work of Roger Callahan in the creation of TFT (Thought Field Therapy).     This complex method consisted of tapping different sequences of meridian points for different issues. Later, engineer, Gary Craig, came along and simplified the method and called it EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique).     Craig’s method used tapping the same points for all issues. This wildly successful method is now practiced worldwide and has many clinical studies proving its efficacy.     Today, Nick Ortner has grown the practice of tapping even more through the Tapping Solution.     You can learn more about Mary Sise or join he

In 2014, the Center for Disease Control reported that as many as 10,000 toddlers were receiving psychostimulant medication like Ritalin. Some six years later, the numbers are even higher. Is normal behavior too often being labeled as disturbed or disordered because it meets DSM criteria?   Data shows that in 2019, 6,726,189 children and adolescents were prescribed psychotropic drugs, ranging from antidepressants, antipsychotics, anti-anxiety drugs, mood stabilizers, and ADHD medications. In addition, an increasing number of children and young adults with behavioral or emotional disorders are frequently treated with a cocktail of drugs simultaneously.   Although there is limited information on the safety and efficacy of treating children with one or more psychotropic medication, they are commonly prescribed hastily and without the proper time and evaluation needed to make an appropriate diagnosis.   Usage of these medications has continued to increase over the past few decades, yet the risk of adverse side eff
