A historically diverse freshman class signaled the beginning\u00a0 of the 116th Congress this week as Nancy Pelosi returned to the House Speaker’s post.\u00a0 Pelosi opened by stating U.S. voters “demanded a new dawn” with the November mid-term elections that swept the Democrats to a House Majority in hopes of returning checks and balances to a system severely out of balance for the past two years.<\/p>\n

In this time of stark political division, where battle lines are drawn not only between parties but within the parties themselves, the 116th Congress will face some tough issues immediately, including the government shutdown.<\/p>\n

As the showdown over the shutdown drags on and Trump continues to hold America hostage, one must wonder, where is the “real” Republican Party in all of this?<\/p>\n

JOIN Barb and John as they discuss A New Day Dawns.<\/em><\/p>\n

It isn\u2019t really a secret at all. \u00a0It\u2019s a practical process that takes into full account how we humans achieve self-mastery.\u00a0 Freedom is Your Birthright<\/i> is a small, bite-size book, the first step in the 5-part Stepping Stone Series<\/em>. \u00a0This book will teach you how to attain internal freedom, an essential ingredient on your exciting journey to Every Day Peace.<\/p>\n

Dr. Dravon James is the founder of Everyday Peace and a motivational speaker whose goal is to educate, empower, and inspire others to build the life of their dreams no matter what shows up in their lives–good, bad, or otherwise.<\/p>\n

Dravon has faced what many would consider insurmountable odds for creating a dream life, but she has discovered that it\u2019s not where you start from or what happens in your life that determines how far you\u2019ll go. Her journey began in poverty on the South Side of Chicago. She went on to earn a doctorate degree in pharmacy from Creighton University, endured a very difficult marriage, many failed pregnancies, career turmoil and health challenges. Through it all, she knew she possessed the power within her to not only create her own dream life, but to help others along the way. She is now the happy mother of two teenagers, a successful pharmacist, and an actress. Since she was a young girl, Dravon dreamt of a life on the stage. Today, her career credits include a recurring role on HBO\u2019s acclaimed \u201cThe Wire,\u201d many stage plays, and independent films.<\/p>\n

In 2002, Dravon began incorporating her personal development stories into her professional healthcare lectures at hospitals, long-term care facilities, and senior centers. Her journey and teachings resonated with her audiences, and it became apparent that many people were more interested in the Everyday Peace component of her talks than the pharmaceuticals. She was even invited to be the keynote speaker on Everyday Peace at one of the senior center\u2019s annual staff appreciation events.<\/p>\n

Today, Dravon continues to inspire and teach what she knows to be the most effective tool for transforming, creating, and building a spectacular life\u2014tapping into Everyday Peace. Her client list includes the University of the District of Columbia, New Hope World Ministries, Today\u2019s Care Adult Daycare, Stadium Place, and Next Chapter<\/em> online radio. Dravon is also the host of \u201cEveryday Peace\u201d on Unity Online Radio. <\/u><\/p>\n
