Jeff Meek - They Answered The Call

Happy St. Patrick’s Day and week! This week as we celebrate shamrocks, leprechauns, and all things Irish, I want to talk about something even more magical than a pot of gold something that truly brings good fortune into our lives. And that is giving. There’s an old Irish saying: "It is in the shelter of each other that the people live." This simple truth reminds us that life isn’t about luck alone it’s about looking out for one another, lending a hand, and spreading kindness. And isn’t that the real heart of charity? So today, let’s explore how giving whether it’s time, resources, or a simple act of kindness not only helps others but also brings joy, meaning, and even a bit of luck into our own lives. I want to share with you many ideas on how you can give to your community and others around you or far away. I will also highlight how a local nonprofit, Servolution Network in Azle, is making an incredible impact and how you can be part of it.Be sure to follow, like and subscribe to Ann Beal's social media pages.https://www.facebook.com/annbealgettingbetter/https://www.facebook.com/livingwellwithannbeal/https://twitter.com/ablivingwellhttps://www.instagram.com/annbeal/https://www.youtube.com/annbealVisit Ann Beal's websites at:https://www.livewellshow.com/https://www.lifesolutionscoachingandcounseling.com/

Robert Smith, CEO of SWORD, warns us and informs us about what we know about Congress passing of The Corporate Transparency Act and what small businesses must do to fight it.  Listen in to hear what you can do and what you must do.Required Compliance with the Corporate Transparency Act is NearWe are less than 2 months from the January 1, 2025 date of required compliance with the Corporate Transparency Act (“CTA”) for corporate entities created prior to January 1, 2024.  (If required to make disclosures under the CTA, Entities created in 2024 are required to make their disclosure within 90 days of formation.)  The penalties for failing to comply with CTA beneficial ownership reporting can be significant.  The law provides that any person that willfully fails to comply or willfully provides false information may be subject to civil penalties of up to $500 per day and criminal penalties of up to $10,000 and two years in prison. Contact Robert Smith at https://swordusa.org/About Robert in his own words:Over the past 11 months, I have developed a plan to inform, educate and warrior against the CTA, Corporate Transparency Act, a potential legislation that will greatly harm and/or eliminate small US businesses. I believe I am one of the modern-day Paul Revere(s): I am just the guy warning the other warriors that the enemy is coming for small businesses. My Biblical heroes are Sampson and David. These two men ran toward the fight or battle and not from it. Both men had great courage and feared no one. They both had great faith, loved the Lord, and had a serious prayer life. I have tried to pattern my life with the Lord: Having faith in Jesus since I was 5, studying the Word as often as I could, and I have always sought God’s will. I have read the entire Bible over 25 times during my lifetime. I spent many hours in prayer. God has opened so many doors for me to bring me to this crusade for small businesses. As I reflect on my life, God has created me for serious battle with the deep state dragon that has lorded our brothers by using fear (IRS). My battles with IRS and other government agencies have been numerous and the successes, significant. Be sure to follow, like and subscribe to Ann Beal's social media pages.https://www.facebook.com/annbealgettingbetter/https://www.facebook.com/livingwellwithannbeal/https://twitter.com/ablivingwellhttps://www.instagram.com/annbeal/https://www.youtube.com/annbealVisit Ann Beal's websites at:https://www.livewellshow.com/https://www.lifesolutionscoachingandcounseling.com/

Janet Perez Eckles, author and speaker, smiles big and her feet tap to the rhythm whenever salsa, flamenco or any upbeat melody plays. She shares her incredible life story from being born in Bolivia, immigrating to the US and then losing her eyesight. Did that stop her incredible journey to success?

Listen in to hear Janet share about how she was able to do all these things, never give up and believe that she was bound for great things.All shared in her new book, Now I See.https://janetperezeckles.com/viewproduct/5Here's some words from Janet to you:"I’ll teach you the same path that took me from fear to faith, to success and confidence. Initially, I feared that blindness at 30 would stop me from a full life of abundance. I worried that the tragic loss of my son to violence would erase hope of happiness and joy. I dreaded living a life with injustice when the man responsible for his death was acquitted. And when my husband left me, I fought anxious moments that rejection brought.My life might seem one of adversity. But through God, my story shines with victory and joy. That’s why for 20 years, I’ve dedicated my life to show you, no matter what setback you’re facing, how victory is won, how fear is overcome and how true richness in life is found. I believe your own success, victory, and triumphant life are only as close as your determination and faith. My commitment to you is to prove how adversity doesn’t have to stop you and situations out of your control don’t have to slow you down. While the rest of the world is sinking in fear, together we’ll find that unique path that allows you to soar to personal triumph and professional success."Be sure to follow, like and subscribe to Ann Beal's social media pages.https://www.facebook.com/annbealgettingbetter/https://www.facebook.com/livingwellwithannbeal/https://twitter.com/ablivingwellhttps://www.instagram.com/annbeal/https://www.youtube.com/annbealVisit Ann Beal's websites at:https://www.livewellshow.com/https://www.lifesolutionscoachingandcounseling.com/
