Conversations that Make a Difference with Teresa Velardi

Do you see people talking to each other? Or are they just looking at their phones?

When was the last time you had a conversation face to face with someone that actually made a difference in your life, or the lives of others?

Our world is filled with so much to talk about, yet people are spending more time alone, on electronic devices, hypnotized in front of the TV or watching the news.

Authentic, meaningful, diverse, enjoyable, conversation binds us together. It reminds us we are more than meets the eyes, or what we see.

It can uplift, challenge, stretch and invite us to grow dynamically. Are you going through life, like me, often flying by the seat of my pants? Let’s get grounded in conversations filled with Gratitude, Values, Abundance, Authenticity and Faith while being of service to all who listen in to Conversations That Make a Difference.

She has a heart of passion and really brings a lot to the table when it comes to serving those she loves.

Avery leads a life full of abundant courage, independence, love and kindness. His motto is to NEVER GIVE UP.

Tori Smith is 24 years old and lives in Grand Junction Colorado. She has TAR Syndrome which causes her to have short arms, and easy bleeding. All this means is Tori looks different than others and has to be careful of what she does. Sometimes she uses a wheelchair as she has other problems with her legs but that doesn’t stop her! She’s very happy with who she is and what her abilities are. When Tori was 18, she won a gold medal at The 2018 Special Olympics USA Summer Games for the 100 meter freestyle. She loves to swim and has her sights set on paralympic medals next! Tori is involved with her local ARC Chapter, as secretary on the board. She’s looking forward to vlogging her experience of living with TAR syndrome.

Doctors at Shriner’s Hospital for Children in Lexington were able to straighten Jylan’s hands, helping him to do everyday activities. Jylan, because of bullying at the age of 8, was on the verge of committing suicide, but God had a purpose for his life. He founded TAR SYNDROME AWARENESS MOVEMENT  in Kentucky, and April is now Nationally recognized as  TAR Syndrome Awareness Month. He also created “TAR Syndrome Association”.

Authentic Endeavors Publishing, a hybrid publisher, came to life when founder, Teresa Velardi, decided to use her gifts to help others tell their stories in books. As an editor and author herself, she wanted to make it possible for others to benefit from the experience of seeing their words published in a book, First, it was short stories written by several authors compiled together. Then it was individual authors who wanted to either fulfill a dream of writing a book or had a story that was so compelling that it just begged to be told.

The WeBe Books Publishing imprint is a collaborative effort with Kat Kanavos, an award-winning author and good friend of Teresa’s. They have worked together on several other projects and decided to bring something new to the publishing world. Together, they are WeBe Books, aka Word Empowered Book Endeavors.
