It's a journey many find themselves on, and one that our remarkable guest, Mrs. Tobi Staples, knows all too intimately. Tobi joins us to unravel the often misunderstood and covert nature of narcissistic abuse, a personal struggle she bravely faced. Her path from victim to victor is not only about the recognition of abuse but also the celebration of self-awareness and the relentless pursuit of healing. The conversation takes a deep and honest look at how a spiritual awakening may also not protect against the covert manipulation of a narcissist, and the critical steps needed to break the cycle at any age, in any circumstances, and reclaim our life back. Tobi's resilience transforms into a quest to uplift others as she introduces Alpha E-Mind Mastery, her initiative to foster emotional mastery. This empowering tool has its roots in Tobi's reclamation of self, a journey that has set her on a mission to touch a million lives by the end of the year, with the ability to harness universal love and potential.

Part 2 of this mother-daughter series Christa Barone's Miraculous Story of a Victorious Fight Against Childhood Cancer With Her Family When hope seems like a distant flicker, stories like Christa Barone's reignite the flame. At age 3, Christa was handed a survival chance of a small 3%, yet here she is, 28 years old, happy and thriving, completely healthy, and a beacon of light, celebrating 25 years free of stage 4 neuroblastoma type of cancer. Our conversation peels back layers of her childhood marked by an exceptional joy for hospital visits, a testament to the nurturing cocoon weaved by her family and medical caregivers. Christa's story is a mosaic of misdiagnoses, a mother's intuition sharper than any clinical guesswork, and an experimental therapy that carved her path to remission with a 3% chance of surviving. I'm grateful that they heard this very slim ratio after she was saved from this cancer. Her reflection on these early battles reveals the power of perspective – the ability to see divine orchestration in life's toughest challenges. Transitioning from her journey through cancer to the profound epiphanies about her life's mission and purpose, Christa shares the inception of Wicked Wisdom Consulting. Here, she harnesses her story to light the way for others, guiding coaches and businesses in sculpting their operational blueprints. Christa's story is a reminder of the transformative potential that we all have within us, and that gets to be revealed through adversity, ready to become stepping stones for our growth. We honor her commitment to being a guiding light, alongside a heartfelt birthday tribute to her mother, Michelle Barone, whose insights add rich layers to this episode, and that was published just before this episode, on April 3rd, 2024. Together, their shared wisdom is an invitation to celebrate the impact of positive influence and the joy of helping others find their way in the professional and personal landscapes of their lives.   Listen to Michelle Barone, Christa's mother, recounting this miraculous story of a 3-year-old smart girl fighting for her life with terminal cancer: https://www.realtalk-realwomen.com/e/the-promise-that-saved-michelle-barone-baby-girls-life/    Christa's bio Christa is a Fractional COO, childhood cancer survivor, and lifelong spiritual student.
