Lauri's Lemonade Stand

Lauri Mackey | Rockstar Podcaster | Inspirational Speaker | Empowering Womelaurislemonadestand.com
Welcome to the Lemonade Stand, A Positivity Podcast for Women with a focus on serving mature women into the next chapter of their lives in a determined and fun way (cause it’s my favorite age so far!). I am Lauri Mackey, a Certified Holistic Health Coach who promotes three elements of holistic health: psychological, physical, and social well-being. I believe that if you can find and maintain balance in these areas that you have the greatest capacity for happiness in your life. Life experiences and knowledge has made me a cheerleader of hope, a promoter of physical fitness and maintaining a healthy diet (I favor a whole food, plant-based approach), and then showing up in the world with the greatest capacity to serve. This service is why I started this podcast - to bring together the world’s leading experts on having fun, showing up as our authentic selves, and just plain finding tips, hints, ah-ha moments, and life lessons to help in our journey. “Sucking Lemons” moments happen to all of us, but this podcast is here to teach us how to make our own “Sweet Lemonade”.

EP-109 Chef Charity Morgan

Smoked cinnamon. 5-spice powder. The microplane. Vegan parmesan cheese. Smoked sea salt. These are all things I decided to add to my kitchen after this beautiful and fun interview with Chef Charity Morgan. Turns out we grew up an hour apart in Northern California (you never know what you’re going to find out during a podcast interview!) and that Charity has loved to cook since age 5, made a full meal at age 8 that blew the mind of her father, cooked for her friends after school as a teenager, le...

Doodling has never taken on this kind of fun wrapped in sophistication.

Come on in to this podcast and learn not only about doodlelovely.com , but find out the benefits of single-tasking vs multi-tasking, Melissa’s version of #Recess, and even a simple exercise you can do ...

EP-105 Wendy Yellen

Eidetics was foreign to me as a word and a practice, but after this interview, the imagery inspired by the direction of Wendy Yellen - mind blown! This interview brought tears and emotions and feelings rising to the surface, but with Wendy’s soft touch in guiding brought about joy, lightness, and ultimately love. Don’t dismiss Eidetics out of hand just because it might be something new to you. Learn about it, see it for what it is - life-changing. Life-changing in a way that sticks, not in your ...

EP-104 Kelley Kosow

Integrity is like Honesty on Steroids - it is a whole new level of honesty that encompasses being honest with yourself (even when no one is looking). Kelley Kosow’s new book, The Integrity Advantage is chock full of inspiring stories from herself and other women who have found their best selves from the inside out, instead of the other way around. Kelley teaches women how to love themselves with the same love they would give to others. She coaches that it’s ok to be human, but that our goal of o...

EP-103 Priscilla Pancoast-Crockett

EP-102 Dotsie Bausch

There is a quote from one of my favorite books, The Count of Monte Cristo, that goes like this: “There is neither happiness nor unhappiness in this world; there is only the comparison of one state with another. Only a man who has felt ultimate despair is capable of ultimate bliss.” Dotsie Bausch reminds me of this quote. From a debilitating eating disorder and unsuccessful suicide attempts to being a 7-time USA Cycling Champion and silver medalist in the 2012 London Olympics, this lady is living...

EP-101 Dr. Rosane Oliveira

Truly you are guided to what you’re meant to do if you but only listen. Dr. Rosane’s favorite quote says, “Nothing changes until you change. Everything changes once you change.” She is the epitome of her favorite quote and I can’t wait for you to hear about her beginnings in Rio de Janeiro, then to Germany, the University of Illinois, and now UCDavis in Sacramento as the Director of Integrative Nutrition. She is loving, kind, a lover of books (consuming 3-5 per week), and is encouraging in where...

EP-100 Pam Horne

Tap, tap, tapping! I’ll admit, prior to this interview I was a virgin tapper, but EFT tapping has intrigued me and I’m betting by the end of this episode you’ll be doing a deep dive as well. Why? Because anything in our crazy lives that can bring a sense of calm and self-awareness is worth the try! Pam’s new book, The Power In Your Fingertips: Calm the Chaos and Lower your Stress in 15 Minutes or Less! is available now on Amazon. Feeling overwhelmed?

EP-099 Kara Goldin

“Healthy Perception vs Healthy Reality”, this is one of the things I will remember most about this interview with the incredible Female Entrepreneur, Kara Goldin. Well, and the fact that on her wishlist to interview on her own podcast, Unstoppable is Prince William - I hope she gets her wish! Kara is bold in business, but it is executed with her heart. Hint, Inc took sweat equity and a bit of bootstrapping, but it started by the need for her to be healthy and solve a problem. All of her ventures...

EP-098 Stephanie McPhail

Being loved shouldn’t hurt. Stephanie’s first marriage almost left her dead on her wedding night and yet she tried desperately for another five years to make it work before finally finding the strength and courage to rescue herself. It would take other life-changing events from losing relatives and legal issues to physical problems before she got her wake up call, but she was able to learn and find self-healing, self-love, and self-motivation through schooling, affirmations, her best friend (now...

EP-097 Meryl Cook

“Hooking” takes on a whole new meaning when it comes to Meryl Cook. Her path of homeopathy to breast cancer, how she healed through rug-hooking and journaling, and ultimately how she let her creative self come out of the closet in 2016 is an incredible journey filled with courage, bravery, tears, and finding positivity and healing along the way. Meryl is now an accomplished authoress, speaker, and workshop facilitator in helping others find their way in their own healing process, no matter the i...

EP-096 Aimee Pond

I’ve done interviews where my guests have been in closets and even interviewed a beautiful authoress who was blind, but Aimee Walker Pond is the first deaf person I’ve interviewed and she was amazing! Aimee loves to talk and she made me want to learn ASL just so we could visit more often. Aimee was born deaf and also blind in one eye, but she became an elite gymnast despite of her disabilities and tells everyone that you have “No Excuses” for pursuing your dreams, big or small. Aimee is full of ...

EP-095 Angela Nuttle

Compose Your Soul - How to Turn Your Daily Chaos into Calm Control is Angie Nuttle’s new book and I can’t wait to get a copy! I would probably want to buy it just for the cover (that Angie created herself by the way!), but I need her inner genius that’s in that book. If you’re like me and find those “life-sucking inner critics” sapping you like an energy vampire or you find that you are an OPP (Overly Productive Person) like Angie, or worse, and OCD OPP (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder wrapped int...

EP-092 Heather Goodwin

“You’re only as sick as your secrets.” And Heather Goodwin isn’t holding anything back on her journey from 436 pounds on a 5’2” frame to losing 303 of those lbs at the time of this interview. Heather calls it The Butterfly Effect where’s she’s gone from a fat and furry worm who ate everything in sight to a beautiful butterfly.

Lupus gets a swift kick in the pants from this amazing doctor who was diagnosed at age 16 with stage 4 kidney disease, endured 2 years of chemo and yet still attended and graduated medical school while giving herself shots daily to prevent strokes. Through all of this she is indeed the eternal optimist who like her mother and grandmother are powerful and strong warrior women who “hover with love” in helping others achieve their dreams and kick diseases like lupus and rheumatoid arthritis to the ...

EP-086 Kim Maravich

“Self-care is not selfish. It is the foundation for serving others.” If this was the only thing I knew about Kim Maravich I could have based this entire podcast on this one point, but she also helped me find grace in my New Year’s Resolutions being completely derailed unexpectedly last month. These two things are enough to have you dive into this podcast headfirst and without hesitation. Come on in, the water is glorious! If that isn’t enough for you, we also talked about Kim’s latest book, 360 ...

Who Am I? What Do I Want? How Do I Get It? Christine Hassler knows what it’s like to answer these questions, find answers, then ask these questions again to continue our journey’s on what she calls “Our spiritual beings that are having a human experience”. We are human which means that our human selves are going to make mistakes and trip up now and again.

EP-084 Jeannine Elder

Potato Love! I have always loved potatoes. I’ve even read about a few people who have experimented with a mono-food diet for 30 days and even a year. I’ve read about marathoners eating nothing but potatoes, but Jeannine Elder is the first person I got to visit with one-on-one and learn her “why” behind her system called “The Potato Reset”. I am so convinced it can work that I’m trying it myself as this podcast airs! From an incredible back story of bad health and bad relationships (including the...

EP-083 Happy New Year 2018

Goal Setting is a beautiful, messy, frustrating, sometimes overwhelming, but totally fun thing to do. Goals in our heads rarely get accomplished. Goals written down? Way higher potential of coming true…but goals that are written down and throw in an accountability partner? 90% chance of coming true! Listen in to my report of last year’s goal-setting and what I decided to do different in 2018. Wishing you health, happiness, fun and success in 2018! Let’s Rock This!
