S2E31: Sherlock Moore “If you got an (OBGYN) case put me on the chase” with Dr. Andrea Moore

From Manchester, KY, Dr. Andrea Moore had lots of big dreams. A few of her early goals included becoming a Dallas Cowboy’s cheerleader, a detective, and a neurosurgeon. To find the best fit, Andrea attended Tulane in New Orleans and then went on to medical school at the University of Louisville. Ultimately, she chose Obstetrics and has practiced in Owensboro for the past 21 years. If she’s not delivering babies or seeing patients, you’ll find her nose in a book. In fact, her retirement plan is to open an indie bookstore in a haunted house. Join us on the couch with the intelligent, quirky, super cool, Dr. Andrea Moore.

S2E30: ”Imagine the Possible” with Suzanne Cecil White

It’s appropriate that our (season 2) episode 2 guest, Suzanne Cecil White, is the sister of our season 1 episode 2 guest, Katie Cecil. Suzanne grew up on Cecil farm watching her family work hard everyday. She decided to pursue a different path in teaching and dedicated her time to her students for 10 years. After having her first child, her perspective shifted and she found herself back on the family farm using her talents to expand their reach. From creating a fruits and veggies delivery subscription for the community, to creating a gorgeous venue, her creativity brought new life to the farm. At her venue, White Chateau, they host weddings, meetings, showers, birthdays, parties, and her very own women’s conference called Fuel. Just two years ago, Suzanne, had a routine eye appointment that would deliver shocking news and change her life. Listen now to Suzanne as she “imagines the possible”. White Chateau: https://www.whitechateau.com

E24: Going all out with Amy Smithhart and Cecelia Garrison

We had the privilege of sitting down with two of our Orange Theory Coaches, Amy Smithhart and Cecelia Garrison. These two have been friends for years and have navigated the fitness industry side by side, yet have two completely different stories. We hear what it's like to be a coaches wife and boy mom from one and what it's like raising five kids and farm animals from another. We are so grateful for Amy's joyful spirit and Cecelia's motivation every time we show up at OT. Without them and the other amazing coaches and staff, we would not be on this incredible journey to better lives. Thank you Orange Theory family!

E23: A tribute to our Moms with Vivian McQueen and Shelley Schmitt

We have the BROADS of all BROADS; the reason we're here, the ones who taught us, the ones who love us through all seasons, and shaped who we are. We are so happy to introduce you to our sweet Moms, Vivian McQueen and Shelley Schmitt. These women have poured themselves into loving others. They are both hardworking, selfless, caring, and each one unique in their own way. Becca and I are very blessed to call these women, Mom, and are so excited to share a huge piece of who we are with you. Happy Mother's Day to our sweet Moms and to every single woman! Every woman has mothered someone in someway and deserves lots of love and celebration! 

E22: Silent Challenges with Sharmy Davis

It is quite appropriate that we had the privilege to learn more about Sharmy Davis this week. This past Sunday kicked off National Infertility Awareness Week, which is near and dear to Becca and I and to our guest. You will hear about how Sharmy is currently battling through her journey to parenthood and has met many road blocks and heartbreaking losses. But infertility is not the sum of who she is. Sharmy is currently Interim Dean of Students and Director of Cultural Diversity at Owensboro Community and Technical College. She was born in Japan to a Navy family. They eventually landed in Maryland where she got her undergraduate degree.  She also has a Masters in Public Administration and is currently working on her Doctorate through the University of Kentucky. Sharmy shows strength and perseverance as she continues to inspire those around her and give back to her community all while in the trenches of a journey of her own.
