Coronavirus (0:00:00) You’ve probably seen it all over recent headlines—the Coronavirus is spreading. It’s affected just over four thousand people worldwide and has killed just shy of a thousand people. But how at risk are we of getting this virus? In the United States, most of us are more concerned with getting the flu. Either way, it’s important to know how we can stay safe from these deadly viruses. Here to share with us his tips for staying healthy during the winter in the face of these new viruses is our good friend Dr. Weston Spencer. Mindsets for Motivation (0:15:27) The road to our biggest dreams is usually not a short, easy one. There are always obstacles, and it takes a certain kind of mindset to succeed. Our next guest Al Kamara faced some of the toughest obstacles on his road to success. Before earning an MBA and becoming a founder and CEO of a successful advertising agency, he grew up in a village with no running water, electricity, schools or hospitals. But he says that no matter where you come from or how low your beginnings, you can achieve whatever it is you strive to do if you have the right mindset. Al Kamara is the author of The Drive to Aim High: Seven Powerful Mindsets Proven to Guarantee Your Success. Everyday Rockstar (0:28:26) Lisa talks with an Everyday Rockstar who was nominated by a listener. You or someone you know can be featured on the show too!

Vegan Recipes for Non-Vegans (0:35:38) Increasingly more people are making the decision to go vegan and it seems like grocery stores and fast food chains are supporting this movement with the introduction of more vegan food options. While veganism has proven to have several environmental and health benefits, such as lower cholesterol and reduced risk of having diabetes, you might still be unsure if you’d be able to make such a drastic change to your diet. Brandi Doming is a cookbook author and creator of the vegan blog “The Vegan 8”. She’s with us to talk about vegan foods that even non-vegans might enjoy.
