S5 Ep88: VIE Speaks Episode 88: "Surrendering to the Plan" - A Conversation with Ashley Lane Adams

On this episode of VIE Speaks: Conversations with Heart & Soul podcast, host Lisa Marie Burwell, VIE’s CEO/editor-in-chief, spoke with women’s life coach and author Ashley Lane Adams. Lisa and Ashley discuss Ashley’s dedication to helping women reclaim their confidence and step fully into their strength. She opens up about her own journey of surviving an abusive relationship, the first signs she noticed, and the day she decided to leave. Ashley used the spiritual tools she developed along the way to transform her pain and suffering into peace and love. Her book "From Suffering to Surrendering," now available on Amazon, teaches others how to utilize meditation and visualization, accept what is, surrender to your understanding of the divine, and unconditionally love yourself. Not only does she educate in her book, she also accepts clients as a women’s life and relationship coach, helping others navigate waters similar to the ones she has survived. If you’ve ever struggled with self-worth, boundaries, or finding your voice, this episode will remind you that you are not alone and it’s possible to rewrite your story.

On this episode of VIE Speaks: Conversations with Heart & Soul podcast, host Lisa Marie Burwell, VIE’s CEO/editor-in-chief, spoke with Grand Boulevard director of marketing, Stacey Brady. The energy in this episode is contagious, and we loved hearing the stories Stacey shared! Lisa and Stacey have been colleagues and friends for a span of close to 30 years. Originally from Memphis, Tennessee, Stacey worked for SEASIDE®️, Florida, for six years. She recalls it being an exciting time, with The Truman Show having just been released and drawing a lot of attention to Seaside, both nationally and internationally. A recurring theme within Stacey’s career is a passion for doing more. She led the way and wrote the submission for Seaside for an Urban Land Institute (ULI) award. The town not only became a finalist, but actually won "Best in Show." Stacey then began working with Grand Boulevard Town Center in Miramar Beach in 2006. After a few hiccups along the way, like the commercial real estate fallout and the BP oil spill in 2009, the vision for the property became a reality with beautiful architecture, shops, restaurants, and exciting events. Stacey was also instrumental in creating the concert venue on the north lawn at Grand Boulevard that has since hosted Darius Rucker in 2012, the 30A Songwriters Festival Main Stage, and other great performances. This episode will have you smiling from start to finish!

On this episode of VIE Speaks: Conversations with Heart & Soul podcast, host Lisa Marie Burwell, VIE’s CEO/editor-in-chief, spoke with Churchill Oaks developer/visionary, Roy Sembera. Lisa and Roy discuss the origin story of Churchill Oaks, a beautiful gated community that Roy and his wife Wendy envisioned in 2010, which embodies quiet luxury and true Southern elegance on the Choctawhatchee Bay in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida. Currently, Phase 1 sits on 42 acres. Phase 2, nearing its launch, will cover 15 acres, and Phase 3 will bring 15 additional acres of an elevated lifestyle. The community boasts numerous amenities, including miles of trails and boardwalks, two spring-fed lakes, a playground, and a private marina and clubhouse, with pickleball courts and more to come in Phase 2. The Semberas' home, in particular, combines personal design and high-quality craftsmanship. Although not many developers live in the community they built, it was always the intention for Roy and his family. During the interview, Roy and Lisa speak of the many parties, benefits, and gatherings the Semberas have planned and hosted, with Fourth of July being the most recent. Their goal was to create a true family-oriented community for the homeowners that values connection and integrity, and they are doing just that!

On this episode of VIE Speaks: Conversations with Heart & Soul podcast, host Lisa Marie Burwell, VIE’s CEO/editor-in-chief spoke with photographer, filmmaker and creative, Mark Little.  Lisa and Mark reflect on his start into photography which came when Mark's first child was born. He's had a hand in all types of photography such as food, portrait and architecture. The transition into videography was somewhat seamless and Mark credits that to having started in photography first. Mark's catalog in videography and filmmaking is just as extensive. From E.F. San Juan's video series, Real Wood, to working as the Director of Photography for the documentary film, Jackie Cochran. Mark is now filming commercial productions for some of the biggest brands like Porsche, Wall Street Journal and HGTV to name a few. Mark blends the art of photography and the power of videography to create stunning, soul-filled content that speaks louder than words! #viemagazine #storieswithheartandsoul #magazines #alifestylepodcast #celebratestories #storytelling #viespeaks #podcast #podcasts #interview #newpodcastalert #podcastlaunch #filmmaking #architecture #interview #photography #photographer #filmmaker

In this episode of VIE Speaks: Conversations with Heart & Soul, our host, VIE Editor-In-Chief Lisa Burwell, sits down with Stephanie Harlowe. Stephanie is a documentarian and a true crime YouTube creator who began her journey in 2017. Stephanie's goal from the very beginning was to give a voice to those who were silenced. Her passion first manifested in the interest of learning about history and storytelling. Her YouTube channel did not initially take off, but was a gradual process. When covering the Madeleine McCann story, thanks to the algorithm and luck, she saw her channel gaining traction. Stephanie was always focused on finding her audience, her voice and making sure every story, big or small was told. But what was evident from the start was her passion to help others. At the Redfish Film Festival, Stephanie featured Strange and Unusual: The Montauk Project. The story is based on rumors surrounding US Navy air base, Camp Hero. Allegedly, they conducted experiments and attempted to use supernatural or psychic means to make ships invisible to radar.
