JONATHAN B FISHBECK
Back in the “olden days,” planning a family vacation was a complicated undertaking, involving numerous phone calls to airlines and hotels to compare availability and cost. Booking extra excursions and reservations at local restaurants beforehand were all but impossible. Everyone had “their” travel agent who took care of everything and was often the difference between a fantasy voyage and a bad Chevy Chase movie.
 
The internet made these middlemen virtually obsolete (pun intended), as most travelers were able to book their flights and resorts online in a matter of minutes; eateries, and their customer reviews, were also a click away. Even online travel giants such as Expedia were not safe; in fact, this 2019 Forbes article served as a warning that Google, with its “Flights” tool, was nipping at their heels. 
 
Enter Covid, the ultimate disrupter. The pandemic that has crushed so many industries has proven to be a savior to concierge travel. Travel advisors, as they are now called, have once again become highly sought after for their ability to help travelers stay safe while indulging their wanderlust.
 
Nowhere is the uncertainty of Covid more evident than with regard to travel, both within the US and internationally. Most states currently have no official restrictions on interstate travel; however, several have nuanced rules travelers must be aware of. Illinois, for example, has no restrictions…unless you are going to Chicago. And if you’re headed to Vermont and have not been fully vaccinated you must be tested for Covid within three days of arrival. Things get infinitely more complex (and scarier) when venturing outside the country. There are new advisories issued almost daily from the US State Department – not to mention the dangers of getting sick thousands of miles from home. The ideal travel advisor will keep abreast of this fluid situation and steer clients toward states and/or countries that are lower risk, or at least more compliant with preventative measures.
 
Vetting resorts is just as critical. The last thing anyone wants is to arrive at their location and see people partying like it’s 2019.  Of course, every resort’s website will list all the things they are allegedly doing to prevent the spread of Covid, but only an industry insider will be able to get the real story.  In fact, some travel advisors are only recommending resorts they visited during the pandemic to make masks and social distancing rules were strictly adhered to by guests and staff.
 
Let’s not forget the rules imposed by other nations. Currently, one hundred and twenty-two countries – including all of Europe, Australia and most of Asia – are “partially open,” meaning entrance depends on where travelers are coming from and other individual criteria. Travel advisors keep their clients informed of last-minute changes and, if necessary, change or cancel the trip. Travelers must also show negative test results, which is where concierge testing services come in. Concierge medicine has exploded during the pandemic, with providers coming to clients’ homes to administer the test. Results are available within hours.  
 
Modes of transportation have also shifted, most notably with respect to air travel. Planes are flying petri dishes even in the best of times, as reported in this 2019 The Wall Street Journal, so it’s no surprise that during Covid the private jet business is booming. Pre-pandemic, many people who could afford to charter a jet thought it an unnecessary luxury; now, many travel advisors are incorporating it into their list of offerings.  It’s safe to say that travel won’t be completely, well, safe for some time to come.  There are just too many variables, from the differences in the ways local, state and international governments are handling the pandemic to individuals within those areas who choose not to take precautions. Travelers still won’t be able to completely let their guard down, but with these professionals guiding them they will at least be able to experience a bit of normalcy for a while.

Authenticity Awakened: 

The Path to OWNING Your Life's Story and Fulfilling Your Purpose

By Vicki Znavor

Embracing Your Life's Story & Values - 

And Living Them at Work & In Your Communication with Others Paves the Way for Fulfillment and Purpose

Vicki Znavor learned to be self-sufficient early in life.  Despite being a great student, attending college right out of high school was a distant dream because she had to support herself financially.  She

postponed college and jumped into the work force as a typing/filing clerk.  With perseverance and resilience, she learned on the job and advanced by working hard and learning ways to add value at work despite not having a degree.

After spending more than a dozen years juggling work, marriage, parenting and night school, she realized her dream and graduated with a BA and then an MBA.

It wasn't until she began to acknowledge and honor her life story, her truth and values, and make them her coda, that she found her place in the world, ultimately becoming a top C-Suite human resources executive. 

In her four decades of work, she not only found a path to being herself at work, but she became passionate about helping others do the same.  She learned from her own experiences that people only do their best, purpose-driven work when they bring their authentic selves to work in a way that feels right to them.

Knowing and living her Authenticity, she learned how to stand up for herself and her beliefs at work, to communicate honestly and frankly with co-workers and superiors and to foster diverse and inclusive workplaces.  

In her new book Authenticity Awakened: The Path to OWNING Your Life's Story and Fulfilling Your Purpose, Vicki guides readers on how to mine their life story to discover their pivotal moments, values and their purpose which together create the foundation for ultimate success and a rewarding work life. 

She helps others understand their pivotal life stories, their values and their purpose by providing tools, exercises and real-life examples.  She has also incorporated significant research on the topic.  As the awareness that one has of their authenticity deepens, it becomes increasingly more difficult to show up as someone they're not. 

"When you know your truth," she says, "you are more confident and resolute in your decisions and your relationships."

By awakening your Authenticity, you stop living someone else's life, cease simply going along with others' expectations of you, have the courage to admit your mistakes, ask for what you are worth, and have the courage to have difficult conversations with bosses and co-workers. She guides you on all of this!

All of this is interwoven with Vicki's heart-warming story of a young Hispanic woman determined to prove herself and find her place in the world, while creating an enriching and loving family life. And in so doing she left her mark on the people she met, served and lead at Sara Lee Corporation, Northern Trust and CIBC Bank USA, previously known as The PrivateBank.

Her incredibly practical guidebook holds great wisdom on how to communicate honestly, frankly and effectively in ways that will open doors, prevent conflict or resolve it, ask for what you are worth and make you feel more comfortable in your own skin. The book concludes with a great chapter on 100 Ways to Authenticity!

Vicki addresses in Authenticity Awakened:

·         How to find your 5 pivotal moments and why this is important

·         How to identify your values and apply that knowledge

·         When and how to share personal information in a work setting

·         How to face your fears at work (and elsewhere!)

·         The role curiosity plays in your success

·         How to decide whether to stay or go

Vicki Znavor rose from typing and filing clerk with only a high school diploma to a highly recognized Human Resources top executive at some of America’s leading global companies.

She did all that while raising a family and earning her college and MBA degrees.

And now she is teaching some of the most critical lessons she discovered about being Authentic in the workplace to others with her new book Authenticity Reawakened: The Path To OWNING Your Life’s Story and Fulfilling Your Purpose.

Her years in the corporate sector encompassed an impressive array of roles with major impact on the lives of people she served and supported. 

Vicki was the Chief Human Resources Officer for CIBC Bank USA, previously known as The PrivateBank.  In that role, she served as a member of the U.S. executive leadership team and was accountable for the strategic leadership of the bank’s people strategy focused on building a more diverse and inclusive organization, attracting and retaining top talent, and incenting behaviors that resulted in long-term value creation. 

Prior to joining The PrivateBank, Vicki was Vice President, Learning & Development at Northern Trust where she helped develop global people programs linking behaviors, performance and strategy.

She spent most of her career at Sara Lee Corporation in a variety of positions in Tax, Treasury, HR and Change Management.  She was the global HR leader for Sara Lee’s transformation where she focused on managing the impact of massive change on more than 140,000 employees worldwide. 

Vicki has an MBA with a focus on Leadership and Change Management from DePaul University’s Kellstadt Graduate School of Business.  Selected as a Notable HR Leader by Crain’s Chicago Business in 2020 and one of ALPFA’s Most Powerful Latinas in 2019, she serves on several not-for-profit boards focusing on literacy and alleviating human suffering. 

Vicki lives in Indiana and likes to spend her free time with her husband Tom visiting their children and grandchildren. 

Dr Ana Harvey aka Doctor Phenomena

I would like to be interviewed to introduce the launching of my fourth book, Only Good Comes To Me introducing the LEP Frequency Tool (April, Publisher is Waterside Productions, book agent is Bill Gladstone). This important book demonstrates how to work with energy (vibrational frequencies) through the Laws of Vibration, Polarity and Attraction to bring desires in the conscious mind into physical realities. It explains vibrational frequencies in a remarkable take home message method explaining the quantum living approach, and the use of the Violet energy, (the purest energy available to mankind for healing and manifestation) while engaging and encouraging readers to rebuild their life to their specifications using the LEP Frequency Tool. The instructions within the pages are clear and simple to apply, and what makes this book even more unique is that includes assessments and supplements to identify the readers personal vibrational frequency in all the areas of consciousness mental, emotional, physical/sensory, and spiritual energy fields, in the current moment, so immediate changes can be made to raise frequencies to begin creating the future the reader wants to face or eliminate discord in their life. Since energy can only send at the frequency it receives, it is vital to vibrate as high as possible to achieve desired results.

AWARENESS IS NOT ENOUGH!

As a psychology professor for many years and a metaphysical author/speaker who has given numerous seminars on the use of energy I began to see that people have become desensitized to the concept of “change your thoughts change your life.” They get it, they are aware of it, but it doesn’t seem to work for them. The concept is no long er new and pretty much dead-on arrival for most people because awareness and giving some basic information about how to change thoughts doesn’t go far enough! Results are not seen because the process is incomplete.

Awareness must start the process. But without the deeper work of alignment of all human consciousness fields (mental, emotional, physical/sensory and spiritual) desires will not appear. People and the entire universe is made of energy. This energy is impersonal running only on vibrational frequencies. If you want change in your life and live the future you want to face, you must work with laws of the universe (Law of Vibration, Polarity and Attraction). This is not magic, or heresy. This is basic physics. For manifestations you must increase personal vibrational frequencies in full alignment in ALL consciousness fields to achieve the desired goal. For example, when you vibrate high in the mental consciousness meaning that you are mentally mature, logical and can make decent decisions in your professional or personal life, but vibrate low in the emotional (lack of maturity), or spiritual (belief systems) this is a misalignment and you will not achieve desired results. You may attain successful outward life, have a great career, money etc. but may be emotionally or spiritually tortured, or at the very least unhappy and unfulfilled.

The energy only works (attracts to you) in collective alignment when all consciousness fields are in harmony.  In order to understand if you are in alignment before you can manifest you need to have the ability assess your personal vibrational frequency fields.  This is why this book is so unique, as it not only explains energy, but details how to increase vibrational frequencies and offers assessments to assess personal vibrational frequency in the current moment. It allows the person to BE THE FIELD OF ENERGY THAT ATTRACTS because they are aligned with ALL fields of consciousness, not just the thoughts, or the images in the mind.

United States

Dr. ANA HARVEY (aka Doctor Phenomena) is a retired psychology professor, and an established author of several successful books in the genre of education, and metaphysics. In addition, she is an esteemed self-development speaker who holds seminars and workshops to teach people how to increase their personal vibrational frequencies; thereby granting them the tools they need to live in a world of well-being, abundance, and prosperity. She has been given the nickname of Doctor Phenomena because of her extensive research, seminars and books on the life phenomena of human beings. Check out her many shows on youtube.

Doctor Harvey holds a doctoral degree from Grand Canyon University in leadership, and two masters’ degrees in psychology and public administration from Northcentral University and Marist College, respectively, and a Bachelor’s of Science from Marist College. Dr. Harvey’s LEP seminars and books bring a fresh interpretation of scientific, psychology, and metaphysical philosophies to use as tools when working with energy to create the future each participant and/or reader wants to face and the life they wish to live!

Hello,

I am a music producer from a group called Your Machine and I just submitted our latest single for radio play.

The interesting story here is that 1) after I built my recording studio last year and covid hit, I was forced to create a "remote band" online and start working with artists from around the world remotely. This definitely has its ups and downs but with me in the U.S., the guitar and bass player in Austria, and singers in London and the U.K., we have been able to produce high quality music and covid actually brought us together; and 2) I spend 10 years getting a PhD in sociology/criminology only to realize I wanted to produce music and left academia in 2019 to build my studio, etc.

That's a summary of the professional and personal stories that are interesting. If it's interesting to you, please let me know.

I think the most important takeaway from this is that you can still play and produce in the wake of a pandemic. Some aspects of the production process are harder but some are easier. 

Let me know what you think!

United States

I'll pasted some more from our press release below. 

Social distancing has been quite tough, to say the least; but not enough to hold these musicians back!

Your Machine consists of artists from around the world, collaborating together in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. When the traditional ways of collaborating on and promoting music essentially disappeared, producers David (drummer from the U.S.) and Mark (bassist/guitarist from Austria) connected online in January 2020. They began recording their album remotely - which is, let’s face it, part of the new business model for many musicians, even at the highest professional tiers of the industry. 

Aside from the band's biography and history, I grew up in the U.S. and had a lot of behavior problems as a child. I was almost killed by police in my hometown when I was 14, had several felonies before I was 16, and had entered a life of crime and drugs by 19. It was a lifestyle that finally caught up to me in 2008.

So I moved back home to try and sober up/clean up and went back to school to get a BA in criminal justice, MA sociology/criminology, PhD in sociology/criminology, which was great, but I couldn't ever kick the drug and alcohol habit until 2019.

At the end of 2019 everything came to a precipice and I was able to finally get the help I needed, get away from the stresses of academia, and get back into music which the studio, teaching myself bass, guitar, and keys laster etc., ultimately saved me after a year of intense recovery!

These are just the highlights. 

And obviously, as a PhD, I have many relevant talking points related to social behavior, social psychology, culture, etc.

Best, 

David
