“At the end of this all, I hope that I made the people who I meet feel brighter, stronger and more loved, and that any injustices that crossed my path, I worked to dim their strength”
- Lucia Nazzaro
While this site and show alone and the content and tools will not solve all your problems, it will most certainly provide you with tangible ways to make your mind, mood, body and holistic wellbeing brighter and a whole lot more well. It can help you heal, grow and celebrate life in healthy ways and it will challenge you to re-write your story of the past, present and future! It took me decades of personal research and professional studies to finally find some real answers to wellness and changing the way I saw life and I truly want to pass those stories and solutions on to you as we embark on this journey together!
We are so often told health is an outside job, but it's not. It's an inside one. We are so often told we can do things alone, but we can't. We need people. That is what we are here for at WellSeekers. community, connection and compassion. Life can make it difficult to get well, but we want to change that, and provide the information you need to make changes, to write and re-write your stories and to celebrate, nurture and heal. I know from experience how hard it is to take time for yourself, but I also know from experience…it’s worth it.
From my own professional career, from an early age I expressed my stories with music going on to play in some of the most well known venues in New York, Las Vegas, LA and all over New England, recording with Grammy award winning producers and having my music placed in Tv and films, before changing my microphone out from the stage to the airwaves. When I was on air, first at iheart, and then nationally, I tried to create a place where all sorts of people celebrities, community members, and my listeners felt like they were at home. Whether I was on a red carpet or back stage, I knew it didn’t matter, what mattered was the story and the people I was with. From there my journey took me to TV, where I got a few Emmy nominations for hosting primetime on the CW, before sharing more stories nationally that focused on all things Good News. Through it all though, I felt like not only did I love sharing stories, but helping finding solutions, which now is my goal with this show and all the shows I produce.Dave works in marketing and I work in education so naturally, we're both very people-oriented people. As an educator, I love information and I love telling people information that I find interesting or intriguing. Naturally, the podcast is sort of an extension of that. Over the years in teaching, I've seen how interesting information can really connect people. We both love conversations, but really conversations that you learn from. Commute makes sense when you connect these factors, we're making the show ultimately because we both love watching ideas unite people together in conversation.
