Ron Rapaport's journey from a pharmacy career to surviving male breast cancer twice is a powerful story of resilience. After retiring in 2016, he discovered a retracted nipple while on a trip to Spain in late 2018. Initially dismissing it, he later sought medical attention and, in early 2019, was diagnosed with breast cancer. Following surgery and treatment, Ron’s life was changed, and he became a strong advocate for male breast cancer awareness, educating others about this rare condition.
Through his advocacy work with MaleBreastCancerHappens.org, Ron raises awareness about the need for early detection and self-exams, emphasizing the importance of being proactive about one’s health. By sharing his story and challenging the stigma around male breast cancer, Ron has become a voice for others facing the disease, inspiring men to take charge of their health and seek support when needed.

Indian River County Healthy Start Coalition’s mission is to establish and support a local system of care that optimizes the health of moms, babies, and their families living in Indian River County.
In today's conversation with Megan McFall, CEO of Indian River County Healthy Start, we unpack the staggering statistics of infant mortality in our community and explore the Fetal and Infant Mortality Review process. By analyzing mortality cases, we uncover systemic issues, and our discussion reveals how identifying care gaps can lead to preventative measures that protect the most vulnerable.
Along the way, we confront the emotional challenges faced by healthcare professionals, especially regarding fetal demises.
We also discuss the need for preconception and interconception care, recognizing the health challenges many women face before pregnancy.
Megan shares Healthy Start's initiatives, such as trauma-informed care and implicit bias training, empowering caregivers with essential tools.

Edit B Kiss - Holistic Therapist, Success Habit Coach
After years of navigating the intense world of petroleum engineering, Edit B. Kiss found herself at a crossroads. She desired more than just a career—a life of balance, more family time, and freedom.
Edit shares her healing journey of accidentally discovering Source Memory Healing and other natural modalities.Today, we learn about various modalities such as Reiki and Sekhem, and more. I share my experience trying a new healing modality - Source Memory Healing.
Through compelling stories and personal reflections, we'll reveal how releasing emotional blockages can dramatically shift your life, leading to greater peace, fewer triggers, and more profound emotional resilience. By tapping into our energy and releasing past wounds, we can unlock the door to a life filled with purpose and possibility. This is not just about healing; it's about creating a life that radiates positivity and flow from the inside out.Tune in for a conversation to inspire you to step into your healing, growth, and transformation journey!
My testimony: After completing Source Memory Healing, I feel a profound sense of peace and clarity that I never thought possible. The emotional burdens I had carried for years seem to have lifted, and I now see my past through a lens of understanding rather than pain. The process helped me reconnect with the essence of who I truly am, free from the old wounds that once defined me. I am more present, grounded, and ready to embrace my future openly.
