Living Intentionally With Amy Smalarz

Who is Megan?  It is important to me that everyone gets the treatment that they need. We are surrounded by crazy, busy lives and it is essential that we get creative in how we provide treatment. Addiction is not a moral failing, but rather a disease with therapy being a critical part of your recovery. Friends, families, and loved ones are wonderful places to turn for emotional support but often they can be too close to the situation at hand. When you engage with a therapist, they can provide an outside perspective and offer guidance on how best to grow in your recovery. With the use of telemedicine, 2nd Chance Consulting is essentially bringing treatment to you. We make speaking with a therapist, your therapist, easy by finding the time and space that works with your life. We break down the barriers and excuses and pave the road for you to get the recovery you need.

Philip works with entrepreneurs and business leaders all over the world. When people are seeking clarity about their future or want to move through roadblocks, seen and unseen, they call Philip. As a speaker he has inspired and challenged the Canadian Olympic Team and The Pentagon to name a few. He helps people get clear on who they are and where they need to go. He helps them transition in their personal and professional lives so people feel aligned in all areas of life. Philip believes who and what we do ‘off the ice’ has a huge impact on our results ‘on the ice’. What separates Philip from a lot of coaches, speakers and gurus is originality. He brings new conversations to the table and spends an obscene amount of time thinking and challenging the status quo, instead of simply repackaging business & life hacking strategies. Philip McKernan is a philosopher, a modern day philosopher of the human experience.

Fast Inc. Network is an emerging entrepreneur network rooted in the lessons learned and applied by its founders to their own personal business. Kim England and Lisha  Crytzer ran a successful multi-million dollar healthcare firm assisting hospitals with hiring strategies, yet, after years of handling it on their own, their company's growth stalled.  Stagnated. It stood at the verge of bankruptcy.  Years of passion and hard work balanced on the line of giving up and throwing in the towel.  After a final leap of faith and attending an inspiring business conference. Kim and Lisha realized what they'd missed all along; access.  Access to specialists. Realizing their expertise was first-class, their experience and frustration wasn't unique; they were not alone.  They gained the access, tools, and trust they so desperately needed.

Because no one rights a bio like Ryan, I'll let him introduce himself: "First, I write my own bios. Second I have a long ass list of accomplishments that even I can’t believe. In order not to come off too “braggy” I’ll probably leave some of my accomplishments out of this as well. Just know, I’m a BAMF who is not afraid to fail or take action. I’ve never had a job with a salary. I’ve always worked hourly + commission or just straight commission. I’ve been in sales since I was 13 years old. I started out selling car washes in Plano, Texas. I became a record setting service advisor and I still hold sales and car count records at the wash where I worked. Because of my work ethic at the car wash, I was offered a job in mortgages, by one of the regular customers. She noticed my sales skills and offered me to become her apprentice at a mortgage company she owned. After some reluctance, I accepted. Within 30 days of working for her, I had made as much money as what used to take me 3 months at the car wash. I was hoo
