Kim’s Radio Shows

Now a coach, teacher and health advocate with a master’s degree in mind-body medicine, Courtney Marchesani has spent the last 20 years passionately exploring the research gap that exists between what medical science believes and what the gifted sensitive feels. She provides an enlightening ride through early to now-emerging science on sensitivity and the abilities of the highly sensitive. Discover what type of sensitive YOU are, with interpretation of what this means for you today! In her extraordinary new book from Hay House, Four Gifts of the Highly Sensitive: Embrace the Science of Sensitivity, Heal Anxiety and Relationships, and Connect Deeply With Your World, Marchesani de-stigmatizes the term “sensitive,” illustrating how “sensitivity” is a powerful advantage, and provides a pathway to an effective balancing act between being highly aware and participating fully in the world without feeling the need to shut down or self-anesthetize to avoid pain, people or environmental stimulation.

Kim will open with a quote by Missouri Attorney Albert Watkins, accentuating ignorance and cruelity directed by a good portion of society, and their false assumptions behind disabilites of the brain. We advocate and raise awareness here. This is a perfect example of anyone, let alone someone with a high profile perpetuating what could now be seen as “hate speech” versus a 1st Ammedment comment. Kim & Caren will be discussing Autoimmune Disorders. People are normally aware of the obvious ones, but there are so many more than the more common condtions you hear mentioned. Do YOU have an Autoimmune Disorder? Does your Brain Injury constitute one? What other conditions that you wrestle with may be considered in that category? You may be really surprised. If you do have a condition(s) considered an auto immune disorder, what kind of pre-cautions do you take during “normal times” .. if any of us remember those, and how do we handle them under extreme circumstances like COVID?

While I have been here every week for my shows, I have largely been off the grid due to family health emergencies, and a few illnesses of my own. I’ve had lots of great ideas, but not so much the energy and motivation to follow through. We all fashion the routines that work for us, in that they keep us at peak stability & productivity -But go off those comfort rails, & all bets off. Tonight is OPEN MIC – I haven’t been on social media much, gone cross eyed on Zoom, haven’t lifted the 100 pound phone, and have been laying low. That in turn, cuts off the socialization that is so important for our well-being. Had a guest cancellation/reschedule tonight, and decided rather than putting in a rerun .. I would show up for what the network was designed for .. Live support. So .. I’ll be here, I know Gary Turner will be here, Hatter, hope Michael & Alisa can make it & any of you others who I have been missing, or just would like an outlet tonight. If not, I’ll be talking to myself at you, about some brain injury challenges, & some more ponderables, along with some tunes by our great panel of Indies.

A few weeks ago, my show discussed the Acoustic TBI, a topic you seldom hear about. There was a lot of interest expressed, so I got to thinking about other environmental threats to our bodies and brains. Immediately I recalled the weaponized microwave attack to a US Embassy, causing many severe TBI’s. No one saw it coming. We have a lot of great technology like cells, 5G Towers, Microwave ovens, Bluetooth devices, smart watches, windmill farms .. Some for convenience and changing times, and some seeking “green”. We have heard a lot about the pros, and these things aren’t going away .. But what are the trade-offs possibly effecting our health? Simon and I will be discussing this, to raise awareness but also in hopes of finding ways to mitigate any damage that can be done.

The life mission of Lee Tomlinson – also known as “Patient Lee” — is to inspire healthcare professionals to return compassionate care to its rightful place at the forefront of modern healthcare – to benefit patients, their families; and they’re often suffering, “burned-out” selves. Award-winning television producer, movie studio executive and owner, former professional athlete, speaker and TED Talk presenter, “Patient Lee” is alive today due to the combination of a lifetime of extraordinarily effective medical treatment and deeply kind, compassionate care. During a battle with Stage 3+ cancer, “Patient Lee” became painfully aware of the trauma caused by treatment lacking in compassion that drove him to the darkest of depths. What saved him from suicide was a simple, yet powerful act of compassion delivered by a loving doctor and friend. With new purpose, “Patient Lee” created the Compassion Heals Movement, which is designed to reconnect America’s 20 million healthcare professionals with the compassion that got them into healthcare in the first place. Then deal with the “burn-out” that affects over 60% of these vital caretakers, rendering them unable to provide compassion to their patients, themselves, or anyone else. Once healed of their own distress, to reignite these dedicated professionals. Lee has told his story on more than 200 stages around the world, wearing nothing but a hospital gown. Presented with his unique mixture of humor, compassion, urgency, encouragement, “Patient Lee” is making a difference in restoring compassion to healthcare. Finding this mission wasn’t easy, which he discusses in his book Compassion Heals – From Self Care to Health Care.

Kim and Co-Host Caren Robinson will be discussing Blast Injury and Acoustic TBI. We think of Blast Injury in terms of our Veterans .. At least that’s where most of us became aware of the term. Many have never heard of Acoustic TBI. These injuries are not veteran exclusive. Tune in tonight and hear how these types may be effecting you or your loved one(s).

My guest tonight is Ian (Powell) McCullum, author of From Grave to Cradle to Now -The Health Care Professional Edition. The book is a father’s account of his families journey with a traumatically brain injured son, who they were told would die imminently. Written by a health care neophyte, with the assistance of health care professionals, the book addresses—separately and together—both families and professionals.Seewww.marrette.cc/hcpro.htmlfor more information.

Having a traumatic brain injury is one thing. It’s horrible and we walk away with both physical and emotional challenges. Then .. Learn to cope with any damage that was done. Now, imagine being made aware you have a possible ticking time bomb in your body. One option is to “wait and see,” and another may be a difficult fix with fallout. While we’re contemplating this new information, we become acutely aware, that our life once again, will never be the same. A new curve ball has found its path our way. We adapt, embrace gratitude, hope and our ever continuing quest for purpose. Join Kim and Simon on the journey to a new reality.
