Meet My Network: Rich Joseph
October 3, 2014
Rich Joseph is a certified personal trainer and a sports performance coach. Holding a Bachelor’s Degree in Exercise Science, Rich’s training began in 2011 at a local community gym, where he became floor manager, educating members and student athletes on how to use the gym for optimal results.
Inspired by the atmosphere and the opportunity to help others look and feel their best, Rich became an independent teacher-trainer committed to bring clients into their best fitness. Losing weight and getting into better shape is a big concern in the U.S., especially when more than 50% of American adults are either overweight or obese. Rich’s overall goals are not only to improve the overall fitness level of each individual client, but also to educate athletes/weekend warriors on proper nutrition and exercise techniques as it applies to their sport or daily activities!
Testimonial: “From my personal experience with Richard, I can confidently say he has mastered his craft. Constantly coming up with different workout routines to shock the body and push me to elevate my effort. Not only has Richard pushed me to reach the best shape of my life, he has increased my flexibility, and changed the way I eat. It very rare to find a trainer that commits to your needs. Most trainers’ I have encountered have one goal, and that’s to sell me additional products and services just to make more money. But not with Richard, his one and only goal is to help you to achieve excellence.” – Prince

Meet My Network: Cindy Hanson
October 2, 2014
Contact Cindy: cindydhanson@yahoo.com
I live in Brooklyn, Park Slope, grew up in Texas and spent several formative and fabulous years in Chicago. I began receiving and studying Reiki several years ago and completed my Master Reiki course study in October of 2013. Since then, I continue to study and learn from this most wonderful of healing practices. My client base is growing and I am thankful daily for this powerful work.
My journey to giving Reiki sessions has incorporated a few stops along the way, some exotic, some more peaceful, but with several connecting threads. I have a theater background, have worked in the design field as a Human Resources coordinator with a big focus on health insurance, taught children (and big people) how to find and use their voices and physical selves in straight up theater classes, but also in science and social studies. And I write – plays, stories, spoken and read, and was the story editor for a children’s book about 3D printing. I’m a big believer in stories – yours, mine and ours together and the healing power they provide, as well as, alternative and non-traditional health and wellness practices. Acupuncture helps me navigate changes as I age as a female and a human being and Reiki has been immensely potent for me as I recently navigated and mourned the loss of several family elders.
Reiki is a Japanese word that means “universal energy”. It is a healing technique where the therapist channels energy to the patient by means of gentle touch to engage the patient’s innate healing processes to promote physical and emotional well-being. Sessions typically last for an hour and 15 minutes (sometimes a little longer) and people most often feel relaxed, calm and grounded when finished. I love a good complement and I think that Western medicine is beginning to truly embrace some Eastern modalities as well as nutrition and exercise to help patients feel better, heal holistically and maintain vital energy. A Reiki treatment is excellent to prepare and repair – it is therapy without the words or exercise – it is quiet and thoughtful and the client is completely at the center of receiving. It’s an exponential hug and vitamin in energy form.
Testimonial: “I was surprised at how revealing my Reiki session with Cindy turned out to be.
Not only did she spend ample time with me, but the insights, energy and healing I received as a result have helped me gain clarity and assurance. I felt as though I had been to a healing Oracle and found her work with me to be incredibly enlightening and helpful.” –Lorrie Harrison, HR Biolite
Meet My Network: Mary Jo Strickland
October 2, 2014
Contact Mary Jo – maryjostrickland@gmail.com
Mary Jo Strickland is a registered nurse with over 30 yrs. of experience in various areas, including labor and delivery, geriatrics, rehabilitation and psychiatry. She became interested in doing foot care while working in rehabilitation at Emory University hospital, and was fortunate to meet and apprentice with another RN who specialized in the care and treatment of foot problems. She established her own business called Treat Your Feet in Atlanta, Ga. in 1996, which offered a service for senior clients who preferred in-home treatment, or could no longer go to an office for care. She re-located to Brooklyn in 2010 and continues to treat those who desire comprehensive personal care, which is geared for the convenience of the client. She extends her services to pregnant women, mothers too busy for salon visits and men who are hesitant to go to salons.
Testimonial…
” I live in Manhattan and walk a lot. I schedule regular visits with Mary Jo, who keeps my feet in healthy condition. I enjoy a level of personal care that isn’t possible in nail care salons. She provides a one hour foot care treatment, which includes trimming my nails, attention to problem areas such as corns and calluses that limit my mobility and ends with a heavenly massage. I’m a senior, but know that her service would be a special treat for clients of any age or gender.” Betty Stiner, Manhattan
Meet My Network: Mali List Mayer

Contact Mali – mali@lifemanagementpros.com
My story…. I am wife, mother, and daughter. I wanted it all and that’s when the conflicts between work, family and home arose. I felt I wasn’t giving enough to my relationships, doing a good job taking care of my self as well as my family. First, I looked at the “why?” Well, I was doing everything, but not being productive— I was short-changing my relationships and myself. When I talked to other parents, I realized they were facing these very same issues. I looked for answers/solutions and they poured in—time management, energy management, task mastery, meal planning and a daily schedule to name some. When I began to fit my schedule with my life and my life with my schedule, things fell into place. I was more fulfilled and I had time for my family, my relationships and myself. I want to share this knowledge, share the happiness, thus I started Life Management Pros.
Mali List Mayer is a productivitgy coach. She holds a degree from Pratt Institute and a B.A. from Wellesley College. Ms. Mayer has worked in the non-profit and for profit sector. She is wife and mother and knows first hand about the work/life balance.
Life management pros wants to help you juggle life with success!
(P.S. My high school classmates voted me “most organized” in our senior yearbook.)
