Balancing Life in Your War Zones
It was 1975, Saigon was falling to the communists, and LeAnn was "accidentally" caught up in the Vietnam Orphan Airlift. Today, she applies life-changing lessons from her Airlift experience to the "war zones" of our every day lives -- too much to do, too few resources, too much stress! How do we cope? In this poignant, yet humorous presentation, LeAnn motivates audiences to balance their lives, live their priorities, make a difference in the world - and find peace in their war zones. Chicken Soup for the Nurse's Soul
Most nurses didn't choose their careers because of the great hours, pay, and working conditions! LeAnn reminds them why they entered the profession - and why they stay. By sharing Chicken Soup stories, and those from her own 30 years of nursing, LeAnn encourages, uplifts and honors nurses and champions their daily contributions and sacrifices. By encouraging them to balance their lives, she offers nurses a "care plan" to care for themselves as they care for others. With love and humor, LeAnn re-energizes them with hope, health, and healing during these challenging times, inspiring them to continue their compassionate service.
Chicken Soup for the Caregivers Soul
While rewarding, care-giving requires tremendous emotional, physical and spiritual stamina, making burnout an everyday challenge. In Chicken Soup for the Caregiver's Soul, LeAnn offers remedies by encouraging caregivers to care for themselves as devotedly as they do for others. By sharing stories from Chicken Soup for the Caregiver's Soul and from her own life experiences, she fills caregivers with hope, courage, and strength and honors them for the difference they make in the world.
You've Got To See It To Be It!
Scientific studies prove positive thinking and visualization promote mental, physical, and spiritual health. By sharing the latest medical research and her Airlift experiences, LeAnn empowers audiences to improve their health by improving their attitudes. A certified childbirth educator, LeAnn teaches how labor tools - breathing, relaxation, positive thinking and visualization, and management of time, - apply as we "labor" through everyday life.
Light a Single Candle
A sign above a pediatric burn unit in Vietnam read, "It is better to light a single candle than to curse the darkness." LeAnn reminds audiences they don't have to fly into a war zone to make a difference in the world. No effort is too small. By lighting our single candles, we make a difference and set the world aglow with our goodness. By identifying, exploring, and sharing our gifts, we receive more than we give.
His “Puzzling” Plan
LeAnn shares her conviction that, just as God led her to Vietnam, He leads us all when we trust in His guidance. While we're working with a few pieces of the "puzzle," God sees the lid of the box! When people make the right, but not always easy, decision today, God will take care of the rest.
