Life Changes Live! With Guest Eric Pearl

Our Life Changes Live! Event tonight was the biggest yet. We held it at the Universal City Hilton in Ballroom A and we had such a great turn out, the best yet. Our guest was our most well known yet, as a matter of fact, we were very honored to have him, and he was gracious and magnanimous.

Our guest was Eric Pearl, and since we haven't had the pleasure of having him on our radio show and of writing about him on this blog yet, I'll share a little bit about him here.

Eric is an internationally recognized healer who has appeared on countless television programs in the US and around the world, spoken by invitation at the United Nations, presented to a full house at Madison Square Garden, been interviewed in various publications including The New York Times, and most recently featured in the film, The Living Matrix.

As a doctor, Eric ran a highly successful chiropractic practice for 12 years until one day his patients began reporting that they felt his hands on them – even though he hadn’t physically touched them. Patients soon reported receiving miraculous healings from cancers, AIDS-related diseases, epilepsy, chronic fatigue syndrome, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid and osteoarthritis, birth disfigurements, cerebral palsy and other serious afflictions. All this occurred when Eric simply held his hands near them – and to this day, it continues.

His patients’ healings have been documented in six books to date, including Eric’s own international bestseller, The Reconnection: Heal Others, Heal Yourself, soon to be in 36 languages.

To learn more about Eric and the work that he does, visit www.TheReconnection.com.

Our musical guest was Sybil Ferere, who accompanied herself on guitar and sang two of her original compositions that visibly moved the audience.

Our Luminary of the Month was Reeves Ananda Elyce who came with ten students who she and a colleague have helped. The children had been kicked out of High School for various reasons, and Ananda is helping them learn how to be the power in their world. More power to them, more power to you Ananda and everyone involved in this volunteer program.

One of the vendors at the event, was so taken by what Ananda and her group are doing, that they donated the revenues they made that night to Ananda's non-profit organization. Now that's what Life Changes is all about!

As usual we had Marco Missinato's beautiful music, and Dorothy Lee Donahue's "State of the Universe" Address and Mark M. Laisure's reading of the visualization.

And we're off. Life Changes Live! has got it's legs! To learn about our future events, or our radio shows, etc., visit our website at www.LifeChanges.ws.

Thank you again to all who participated and to all who attended. It is and was our pleasure serving you all by putting on Life Changes Live! tonight.

Filippo Voltaggio

P.S. A special thank you go to Mark Gregor, Aggie Kobrin of CEC Global Events and Steven Yamin of CEG for helping make aspects of this evening possible.

Greg Mooers on Life Changes With Filippo

Our guest tonight on Life Changes With Filippo was a man with a very unusual story. His name is Greg Mooers, and Greg has a background in Engineering and Quantum Physics and he was a monk for 8 years. During his years in the monastery, he studied the lives of Heroes like Gandhi, Mother Theresa and Martin Luther King and discovered the formula they all followed that lead to a meaningful and fulfilling life of contribution.

Through the Heart Virtue Program at Bridge2Bliss, Greg trains people to master these 3 skills until they have clarity and confidence and make their contribution to humanity, everywhere they go. Greg's 3-step program will reveal what is motivating you and show you how to use Quantum physics principles to create a rewarding career and fulfilling relationships.

Greg and his team have trained ten's of thousands of people since 1998 including; Olympic Gold Medalists Emmy, Grammy and Academy Award winners, billionaires -- and the most powerful clients: mothers, fathers, husbands and wives to master their craft and their lives in the program.

I have met and spent hours talking to and mainly listening to Greg because I find his past experiences and what he is currently doing, fascinating. His background appeals to my engineering background and his philosophies appeal to my current learnings and studies. Much of this is evident in the interview, which makes it even more interesting as far as I am concerned.

You can currently hear the show in it's entirety by going to www.LifeChanges.ws and clicking on our Archived Radio Show pages.

Thank you Greg for being on our show and for being, along with us, a Positive Change Agent, ushering in the changes we look forward to seeing in the world.

Suzanne Taylor on Life Changes With Filippo

Tonight's guest on Life Changes With Filippo was Suzanne Taylor, founder of the non-profit organization Mighty Companions, who has been involved with films since she graduated Phi Beta Kappa and summa cum laude from NYU. Having been an actress, she crossed over to the other side of the camera as the Executive Producer of the 2009 EBE Award winning film, “What on Earth? - Inside The Crop Circle Mystery.” She also was the Executive Producer of the feature documentary CROP CIRCLES: Quest for Truth.

In February, What on Earth? won the 2009 EBE Award for Best Feature Documentary at the UFO Congress Film Festival, the same award the other film received in 2003.

As the founder of Mighty Companions, a non-profit dedicated to consciousness expansion, her Los Angeles home is a gathering place for forward-thinking activists. A fine arts post-impressionist painter, Suzanne had a one woman show. She is an accomplished chef, and author of The Anybody Can Make It, Everybody Will Love It Cookbook. She writes a blog, Making Sense of These Times (http://TheConversation.org), where posts about progressive ideas include considerations of how consciousness might evolve and how instrumental the crop circle phenomenon could be in that regard.

It was Suzanne's Birthday tonight and we celebrated her with a cake and sang on air. That was a first. And so were some of the conversations we had. Since Suzanne used to be a commercial actress, she has some funny stories to share, which she did. Her husband also was a famous TV show Director of shows we all recognized, and it was interesting hearing how events around them shaped up because of her.

Thank you Suzanne for being on the show and for being, along with us a Positive Change Agent for the change we wish to see in the world.

Life Changes Live! With Guest Suzanne Taylor

It's was time for our third show and boy did we have a show. This was so exciting, and so different. As the show is growing, the audience is growing, and so much is changing for the better, and it is all so exciting. This show was held in Studio City, CA and we had the largest audience yet and the most vendors and people stayed after the longest. This time, since it wasn't in a hotel we had the place for the whole night and for awhile there it seemed like people were going to be staying all night. It gets that fun.

But the fun truly begins for us as we start to plan it, and I would hope for the audience, the moment they decide to come. And it all starts coming together as the audience starts to come in the day of the show.

This show featured Suzanne Taylor as our guest interviewee, Director of "What on Earth - Inside the Crop Circle Mystery." I not only got to interview her but we showed the trailer of her movie on the big screen.

This time, besides the musical accompaniment of Marco Missinato, which has become a staple of Life Changes Live!, we were graced with two musical guests. Our first guest was my friend Laura De Leon who is a spiritual life coach in her own right, but a marvelous singer as well, sang two of her original compositions.

Secondly, we had The Green Children, Marlo Bevan and Mila Sunde, whom some of you may remember from one of our past radio shows. On the radio show we played their hit single, "Hear Me Now," and during our live show, they sang it live, along with another song, accompanied by their full band.

Our Luminary of the Month was Daisy Doucet who has written a book for children about how we are all equal and she goes around schools, donating her time reading the book and teaching children to get along with each other, no matter the race, color or creed. Good going Daisy, more power to you.

And more power to us all as we are growing together and building community together. There is such a promise of good things ahead. I, as always, look forward to the next one.

To learn more about our upcoming live events, or our radio shows, visit www.LifeChange.ws.

Thank you to all who participated and to all who attended,... we are making a difference in the world.

The Green Children on Life Changes With Filippo

Tonight's guests were the international pop music duo "The Green Children," made up of Mila Sunde and Marlow Bevan.

The international pop duo - The Green Children - Marlow Bevan and Milla Sunde - have recently signed with Universal Music Group and are currently in the studio in Los Angeles with producer Stuart Brawley (Michael Jackson, Don Henley), readying their U.S. debut.

This first CD project will be entitled Empower, with marketing, promotion and tour to reflect this title. In keeping with their humanitarian mission, proceeds from the sales of the CD, will be donated towards the education and healthcare efforts in India and Bangladesh, in partnership with the Grameen Bank.

Since forming The Green Children Foundation in 2006, Marlow Bevan and Milla Sunde, have been working with 2006 Nobel Peace Prize recipient Professor Muhammad Yunus, who established the Grameen Bank, to help reach the youth of the world and create awareness through their music to raise money for global issues such as poverty, substandard healthcare and lack of education.

The Green Children's recent fundraising DVD/CD entitled "Hear Me Now," released in Norway, sold 100,000 units and raised over $500,000, which was donated to build the first eye clinic in Bangladesh, where over 1.8 million people are forced into blindness due to eye cataracts. The monumental eye clinic, which opened in May 2008, is already performing cataract surgeries, where the operations have been made available and affordable to the afflicted poor in Bangladesh.

We got into some fun conversations about how they first met and how they came to be the Green Children. Hear also about some of their big plans for the future.

For further information, visit their music website at www.thegreenchildren.com or their foundation website at www.thegreenchildren.org or you can learn more about them or currently hear this interview on our archived show pages on our website at www.LifeChanges.ws.

Thank you Mila and Marlow for being on the show and doing what you're doing, which is being the change you wish to see in the world by being a Positive Change Agent along with us here at Life Changes.

Johnny Seitz on Life Changes With Filippo Radio Show

Johnny Seitz was our guest on "Life Changes With Filippo" tonight. Now, Johnny was born with the affliction of Autism, and yet went on to become an accomplished professional ballet dancer, mime, martial artist, lecturer, Life Coach and Author of “Bio-Typing: Beyond Body Language.”

As a way of coping, living in a “normal” world he developed BioTyping which he now is using to help the “normal” people figure out “our” world. He will change the way you look at the way we literally “move” in our world if you listen to his interview.

I was looking forward meeting Johnny and to experiencing all that a dear friend, Janet Baghoomian, had told me I would experience in a session with him. I didn't have time to do a session with him before the show, but I did make time to visit him in his studio. Even though I didn't have a session, all that Janet told me was true, and more, and I couldn't wait to share this information with you all tonight.

Johnny paid me the biggest compliment. First of all, though Johnny comes across as a "normal" person, he is proud to say that he isn't, in many ways, and you will understand why when you hear the interview. Because in so many ways, the way he thinks is more "right," than the way we "normal" people think, those of us who do not have the affliction of the type of autism that Johnny has.

It is interesting how Johnny has studied "normalcy" so much that he has it down, and now it is us who can learn from him. But the fact remains, that there are some aspects of his affliction that still affect him. And because of this, Johnny does not do interviews, or if he does, he does them on the phone. But Johnny came to us and was even filmed during the interview.

But best of all, he always has his wife present while he speaks because he gets uncomfortable in the interviewing process. God bless him, even though his wife was there, she left the room and didn't come back because Johnny felt comfortable with me and a great interview ensued.

After the show, while we took pictures, something really funny happened that I can't wait to share in a later post or on air. I'm writing this, not as a tease as much as a reminder to myself not to forget to tell that story sometime soon.

You can hear the interview currently on our Archived Radio Show pages on our website at www.LifeChanges.ws.

Thank you Johnny for being on our show and for being, along with us, our families, friends and fans, Positive Changes Agents for the changes we wish to see in the world.

Louise Ashby on Life Changes With Filippo Radio Show

Louise Ashby, model and actress turned inspirational speaker, and author of “The Magic of the Mask,” was our guest on tonight's "Life Changes With Filippo" Radio Show.

Our Producer Mark M. Laisure brought his friend Louise to the show and as much as I was looking forward to it, for various reasons, I was a little apprehensive. I was feeling so much compassion for this beautiful woman, who had the promise of a great modeling and acting career who's whole life changed when she was hit from behind by a car and she went flying through her car windshield.

After eighteen reconstructive surgeries (to date) necessary to recreate her face, I was wondering what I would find, not just on the outside, but on the inside as far as how she was coping with it all, even after all these years.

What I found was quite a pleasant surprise and put my heart and mind at ease the moment she walked through our door beautiful and smiling from the inside out. She looked beautiful and she beautifully shared her story freely, putting me at ease and also showing that she had either done lots of work to get to this place, or that she had had some major aha's along the way.

Louise talks about all that in the interview, and more which you can currently hear on our Archived Radio Show pages at our website www.LifeChanges.ws.

Louise also does much charity work and you can learn about that and more at www.louiseashby.org.

Thank you Louise for being on our show and for being, along with all of us, our families, or friends and fans, Positive Change Agents, for the changes we wish to see in the world.
