Transcript
- 0:21Hello, and welcome to today's show, Legacy Living, Make Your Life Count.
- 0:28I'm your host, Doctor Gloria Gloria Burgess, international leadership expert and trusted
- 0:37advisor. Welcome to Legacy Living, Make Your Life Count. I'm so delighted
- 0:46that you joined me today. I have a very special guest on our show.
- 0:51Her name is Stacy Johnston. I know you will enjoy meeting her,
- 0:57and I just know you'll be inspired our conversation today. Stacy Johnston is the
- 1:03owner and operator of enlighten Up. I just love the name of her business,
- 1:11don't you. Enlighten Up is a personal consulting firm based in Texas.
- 1:18Her focus is to illuminate the magic of you. Stacy is joining us today
- 1:26from Texas, where she lives with her husband of thirty seven years. She
- 1:30is a mom to three beautiful children and grandmother to six. Stacy is an
- 1:38internationally certified personal development coach, consultant, speaker, and trainer. She works
- 1:46with individuals, families, companies, and communities to recognize the power of their
- 1:53influence and the importance of the legacy they create in their lives now. Stacy
- 2:01grew up in a dance studio family and In her own words, she says,
- 2:07I was blessed to enjoy the beautiful world of the arts all my life.
- 2:15In fact, Stacy owned and operated Applause School of Dance for thirty years.
- 2:21Then she took a pivot and served in the adolescent and adult substance abuse
- 2:27and mental health profession as a family services specialist. She served there for eleven
- 2:32years. Her new joy is co hosting two podcasts, Uncaped Heroes and Midweek
- 2:43Mind Candy. Today's topic is Enlightened Up, a topic that is near and
- 2:51dear to my heart, and I can't think of a better person, a
- 2:55better leader, a better human being to address this topic than Stacy. I
- 3:02met Stacy several years ago when I was attending an International Maxwell Certification conference in
- 3:09Orlando, Florida. When I met her, I just knew there was something
- 3:15extra special about Stacy, And whenever I had an opportunity to have a simple
- 3:20conversation with her, she spoke so passionately about the people she worked with as
- 3:27a family services specialist. Stacy rarely said anything about herself, but I could
- 3:32tell she was serving from her core. In fact, she was standing in
- 3:38the fire of her purpose. So I can't wait to host this very special,
- 3:45amazing and lovely human being, my friend, colleague and mentor, Stacy
- 3:52Johnston. Now, before I bring her on, I just want to take
- 3:55a minute, just a moment, to connect the dots between today's topic on
- 4:00Enlighten Up and legacy Living. There are many ways that Enlighten Up connects to
- 4:09legacy living, which you will hear more about later, But for now,
- 4:13let me just say that legacy living is a way of being. It's a
- 4:17way of living and moving through the world so that we make the conscious choice
- 4:25to be the difference we want to see in the world. And we make
- 4:29that conscious choice right here and right now, not way off in some distant
- 4:34future. We make that conscious choice day in and day out, three sixty
- 4:41five, twenty four to seven. Okay, all right, more about that
- 4:46later. Now let me introduce you to my friend and colleague and mentor,
- 4:53Stacy. Hello, Stacy. I want to welcome you as a guest to
- 4:59my podcast. This is just such a blessing to have you on and I
- 5:03would love to introduce you to my listeners. Well, welcome. Hello.
- 5:09I am Stacy Johnson, and I am so very glad to be here sharing
- 5:14this space with you today. Thank you, Thank you, Stacy. So
- 5:17I know that you have done so much in your life and in your work,
- 5:23and I would really like to talk with you today about your I'm gonna
- 5:27call it a ministry about enlighten Up. So can you talk to us a
- 5:31little bit, Stacy about is what is that I would love to talk to
- 5:36you about? Enlighten Up. Enlighten Up is the business that I run.
- 5:42I am a personal development business development coach, speaker, teacher, trainer.
- 5:46Whatever your need might be, I'll see where I can't find a place to
- 5:50feel that shoe for you in anyway. And enlighten Up really comes the concept
- 5:57of all of it comes from my experience as a dancer. It's where a
- 6:00lot of it comes from, and so much that I learned there kind of
- 6:03opened that door. Over the past thirty years, many times the word light
- 6:09has come into what I'm doing and a name of something I have. So
- 6:13it was only natural that that be my path. So and enlighten Up.
- 6:17My job is to illuminate your magic. I think that you were God looked
- 6:25down one day and decided the world needed one of you. And there's an
- 6:28amazing reason why. And when you believe that, and you turn that light
- 6:32on that you have inside girl, the light that shines is beautiful, and
- 6:35then you believe in the magic of you, and then it's unstoppable. The
- 6:40world is your stage, right. Well, I love that, And I
- 6:43did not know that you had a background a dance and I would. I'm
- 6:46just curious about that if you could tell our listeners a little bit more about
- 6:51your foundation. Absolutely, I grew up as a dancer. My mother was
- 6:57a dance teacher. My father was a dance lover, so I grew up
- 7:00in the dance household. We were all about dance recitals and costumes and props
- 7:03and rehearsals and competitions and lots and lots of music, Oh my goodness,
- 7:09And we had a wonderful time. My dad was a relature and so we
- 7:12had great time. And we did it all as a family. And like
- 7:15when the country in western craze hit an Urban Cowboy came out, I bet
- 7:18my mom and dad taught two thousand people how to do the two step.
- 7:21Oh my goodness, that's amazing, And so it was fun. And Urban
- 7:26Cowboy had its own disco crazy ride than we did the disco. So I
- 7:30grew up as a dancer, danced professionally for several years, and then spent
- 7:33about thirty five years as a dance instructor and coach. So what kind of
- 7:39dance did you focus on? Or you know, ballet is the basis of
- 7:45all of it, right, everything comes from ballet. You're poised, your
- 7:47grace, your center of balance. But I my friend and my tap dancer
- 7:50at heart, my love of the rhythm. It's a song all by itself
- 7:56with no music. It's right, yes, And life is a rhythm.
- 8:00Write it, and life has a song to sing, and we are life,
- 8:03so we have a rhythm. So I love it. I had one
- 8:07after I retired. I saw a lady one day and she said, at
- 8:11the time, I was working for the State of New Mexico as a family
- 8:13services specialist working with adolescent and adult behavioral health and substance abuse. And she
- 8:18said, oh, are you not sad that your aunt's still dancing? And
- 8:22I said, you know, I am dancing because everybody's life has a song.
- 8:28And so I go over here and I dance to the song over here,
- 8:30and then I come out shake it off. And then I go over
- 8:31here and I get to dance to the song that these people play. So
- 8:35I'm still dancing, I just have a different stage. Yes, absolutely,
- 8:39I love that. So, Stacey, I want to circle back to something
- 8:43you said earlier, and you talked about how each one of us has that
- 8:46magic within us, and can you say a little bit more about that.
- 8:50What does that mean to you? That means, Gloria, that I do
- 8:54believe you have something only you were put here to do, and everything that
- 9:01you learn, everything that you experience, leads you to that place, to
- 9:05that thing that you were supposed to do, and so that whatever that is.
- 9:11And some people find it when they're ten and some people find it when
- 9:13they're seventy five. And it's about the journey, it's not a destination.
- 9:18And right I think everything, everything I know right up to this moment has
- 9:24got me ready for the next moment I'm going to face. Absolutely. Absolutely,
- 9:28So we have a special genius inside of us is one of the ways
- 9:31that I talk about it. And it sounds like you're talking about the same
- 9:33thing I am. You have this, you have this person inside of you,
- 9:37that's your rhythm, that's that's what makes your song sing. Yes,
- 9:43And if you understand that, then you know how you like your eggs,
- 9:46and what your favorite cartoon is, and how you feel about love and respect
- 9:50and failure and success. And nobody gets to take that from you because those
- 9:54are that's you, that's who you are. And I think the biggest challenge
- 9:58that we face in the world today is deciding who is Gloria. What kind
- 10:05of wife are you going to be? What kind of mother are you,
- 10:05what kind of friend are you? What kind of mentor are you? And
- 10:09then being able to maintain that in spite of what the world would have you
- 10:13be. Yes, yes, because the world wants to tug us in all
- 10:16different directions. And yeah, we're made for We're made for other things.
- 10:22We are. And you know, we as a people, Gloria, we
- 10:24gravitate toward like whatever it is. They're the parties over there, the lots
- 10:31are on over there. Even our advertising is we'll leave the lot on for
- 10:33you, right, And so just as a society we gravitate toward. And
- 10:39as people we do the same thing. And we feel this energy or this
- 10:43lot coming from an individual or a or a teaching or a thought or a
- 10:46platform, and we gravitate toward that energy and we feed on that we're like,
- 10:50yes, I get to love this lot, and then they turn their
- 10:52lot off and we get insulted and we go, no, wait a minute,
- 10:56I was faking on, lie. What do you think you're doing?
- 11:00Right? And so we own that disappointment and then we just seek out another
- 11:01light. And so the magic of you is recognizing that the light that you
- 11:07are searching for is inside you. And when you can turn that light on,
- 11:13then everything you need draws to you like fish to a not globe,
- 11:18loss of the flames, they would say, and then you can attract that,
- 11:22but you have to believe in that light first. Absolutely. Yeah,
- 11:26thank you, Thank you, Stacey. So I want to just pivot a
- 11:31little bit here and talk a little bit about your broadcast ministry. And I
- 11:37know that you have two things going on right now, at least two.
- 11:41Could you talk with us a little bit about your Uncaped Heroes podcast. I
- 11:46would love to talk about that. Un Caped Heroes is right now. It's
- 11:52currently my favorite thing to do in my time. That's what I love doing.
- 11:56It's magic for me. I started the podcast about it year ago with
- 12:00a gentleman named Boyd Hamlin. He came on as my co host Boyd wrote
- 12:03a beautiful program for youth development, character and integrity for children in any way
- 12:09you can possibly use it. And so he called me one day and he
- 12:11said, let's do a podcast and turn this into grown ups because the kids
- 12:15got to see the grown ups live it. And I said, let's do
- 12:18it. So we decided to do this podcast called The Hero Builder. And
- 12:22then he made a pivot in his life and he met some amazing people and
- 12:24the Hero Builder has begun to breathe and live over here. So we separated
- 12:30from the Hero Builder and became the Everyday Heroes so the Hero Builder could have
- 12:35its life, and as it is progressed, it is going to continue to
- 12:39eat up more and more of his lovely time. All his prayers are coming
- 12:41through. It's the funnest thing to watch. And so as he's done that,
- 12:45we're going to rebrand again June one and we're going to become Uncaked he
- 12:48Roes. And my daughter is going to become a new podcast co host.
- 12:54Oh good, and that's such a joy for me. Yes, and Boyd
- 12:58is going to continue on with with Hero Builder and blessed children all around the
- 13:01world. So the premise of Unk Heroes when we decided to do the podcast
- 13:07Glory. We decided there were one hundred and twenty six thousand podcasts the day
- 13:13we looked at it, and we thought, okay, now, what's going
- 13:16to set us apart from one hundred and twenty six thousand other people. So
- 13:20we started listening and what we found is that a lot of them. There's
- 13:22beautiful information out there, lots of people have lots of beautiful wisdom to share,
- 13:28but so many of them have either a specific theme, a tractor on
- 13:33they're a way to assail there's something else, or you don't want to talk
- 13:37about that, And so where was that gap? And what we saw,
- 13:41we said, what's wrappening in the world right now? So we saw the
- 13:43gap being in a clear understanding of character and integrity. And so that was
- 13:50the premise of let's let's find people from all over the world and let's find
- 13:52out what was their journey, who inspired them, what did they learn,
- 13:58what is their wisdom and how can we share that? And so that's what
- 14:01we do. We have had the privilege of traveling all over the world,
- 14:05from Israel to Egypt, to Australia to the UK to Texas, and we've
- 14:11talked to the most beautiful people. They do the most beautiful things for mankind,
- 14:16and they're giving people permission to get better, to have a space to
- 14:20go. You know, I understand that, and it seems like right now
- 14:24people need permission to do a lot of things. And so there's a lot
- 14:28of people out there open in that space, and so we're sharing that space.
- 14:33We're letting you know who's out there to make your life better and who
- 14:35inspired them, and what's the wisdom from your grandparents. M Well, thank
- 14:41you for doing that work with BOYD and eventually with your daughter. It sounds
- 14:46like very soon she's going to be in the same same seat. You know,
- 14:50so many people are hurting and suffering, not only during this pandemic,
- 14:54but before before we had the pandemic, and so having that place of end
- 15:00inspiration and light is so so necessary right now. Well, hope is universal.
- 15:07Wisdom is universal. It doesn't have a gender or a color, or
- 15:09a location or a community. It is. And we're all just walking each
- 15:13other home. Shouldn't we do it hand in hand? M oh, I
- 15:18love that, Stacy, Thank you hand in hand talking each other home.
- 15:22Agen. Yeah, so I know that you have another podcast and could you
- 15:28tell us about midweek mind candy? Oh? Absolutely, absolutely so. Mind
- 15:35candy is a phrase that we use for something for you to think about for
- 15:39a minute, like a good piece of hard candy or and all day sucker
- 15:43takes a minute to digest that. And so that's what this information is.
- 15:46And we do it on Wednesday, and we take an individual word that is
- 15:52an attribute of character and integrity and legacy and we banter that word. How
- 15:58do you model that word? How do you verb that so that people see
- 16:02that, because that's your legacy, that's the story that you leave behind.
- 16:07And if we don't model And so we've had the most wonderful conversations with people
- 16:11about words, and we're learning how many ways one word can be defined.
- 16:17Yes, right, And it's very important how we use those words and when
- 16:22we're communicating with people because just how you say it has a very different meaning.
- 16:26Sometimes the wisdom is beautiful. And so are you working and talking with
- 16:30people from around the world on this podcast as well? Absolutely absolutely so.
- 16:37Yeah, it's fun there. Every time we talk to somebody about being on
- 16:40the podcast, we go, so do you want to play another way?
- 16:44We have another one. So it's a lot of fun to hear the conversations.
- 16:48And I've really enjoyed the conversations we have between the generations. We bantered
- 16:56the word grace with a young man that was thirty and to hear his concept
- 17:03of grace as one of those people so many people are afraid of, right,
- 17:06thought, Oh my gosh, the awful millennials. And they're so beautiful,
- 17:10right, they have so much information, and I think we're scared of
- 17:12them, is what I think. Right, that's it. They have so
- 17:15much information that we didn't even understand, but they need our wisdom. And
- 17:21so when we bantered the word grace and we heard this beautiful concept of this
- 17:25thirty five year old concept of grace, we came to the conclusion that it's
- 17:27the third step in forgiveness. There's accepting an apology, and then there's forgiveness,
- 17:34and then there's grace. And grace is what we all want, right,
- 17:40And it's hard to offer to other people complete and it's very hard to
- 17:44offer to ourselves, yes, absolutely right. Until you can offer yourself grace,
- 17:49it's almost impossible to offer to anyone else within a clear understanding, right.
- 17:53And so those are the conversations that we get to have. So if
- 17:56you would like to banter a word with us, with Gloria, we would
- 17:59love to have you. Well, you know I love words, so I
- 18:03would be happy to do that. And I think about how we use the
- 18:08word mentor, for example, there's another word for you, and oftentimes you
- 18:11think about somebody older than us. But the young people have something to offer
- 18:17everyone as well, and so I like to think of mentors as people of
- 18:21all ages, all generations, all walks of life. We can all learn
- 18:25something from everyone. Right, I agree? Yeah, And you know,
- 18:29just like you and I both have learned for a mentor that we both share.
- 18:32Leadership is influence. It's not who you are, how much money you
- 18:36make, right, it's your ability to influence those around you. That's the
- 18:40five year old or the eighty year old or somebody in between. Yes,
- 18:44absolutely, yeah, all right, Well I love your ministries and thank you
- 18:48for sharing about your podcasts. Stacy. I know that you have written a
- 18:53part of a book, and I want you to tell our listeners about that.
- 18:57What is Kate No More? Wow? Cage No More is a very
- 19:03new and exciting journey. But I was invited to join. I got an
- 19:08email from a lady one day and she said, please don't take this as
- 19:11creepy, but I've been scoping you out on Facebook. I really love your
- 19:15energy and you and I should have a conversation. And so she called and
- 19:19we had a conversation about this book she wanted to write, and her goal
- 19:23was sixteen to twenty women to co author a book about the moment they recognized
- 19:32the magic in themselves, right the moment they became uncaged from the constraints of
- 19:37society or trauma or fear or whatever it was that was holding them back,
- 19:41that moment they broke free. So in this book will be sixteen stories of
- 19:48coming out right of that uncage. I believe we launched July to thirtieth,
- 19:56and it is sixteen amazing women from all around the world. And so it
- 20:00has been quite an experience, right, so nervously that day when they hit
- 20:03that button had to turn into my chapter. I was like, Oh,
- 20:06there's no going back. Let's it hit the button. Yeah. Well,
- 20:10you know, telling your story is so powerful not only for you, but
- 20:12for all the people whose lives you're going to impact. Yeah. Amen,
- 20:18And I think we never know who might hear our story that needs to hear
- 20:22it that day or whose life it might touch or treat. That's right.
- 20:25And you know, I always say it's not our business to know. Our
- 20:29business is to show up and to tell our stories and to shine the light.
- 20:33Somebody out there needs that. They need that light, they need those
- 20:37life affirming words. They do, they do, so may they fall upon
- 20:41the ears that need them. Absolutely well, I wish you well with your
- 20:45book. I'm not going to wish you luck because you don't need luck very
- 20:49much. I can't wait to get my hands on a copy of it,
- 20:52Thank you very much. It'll be super fun. And though I think all
- 20:55the proceeds are going to charity, and which makes it even better, it's
- 20:59going to be fun to watch it bless other people all around anyway. Absolutely,
- 21:03Now, you mentioned the word gap a little bit earlier, Stacey,
- 21:07and I I'm going to ask you just fill us in a little bit more
- 21:08about what you're thinking in terms of where our culture is today, society is
- 21:14today. Where do you see the gap and what's what's missing or muted for
- 21:19you? You know, I think I asked this question all the time right
- 21:29on my interviews. It's one of the questions that we ask is where people
- 21:32see the gap? And I love the answers that we get, but I
- 21:34think I think for me it's in. It's in the wisdom of my grandparents.
- 21:41Right, Where did that stop getting moved along? Right? We all
- 21:48had these people in our lives that had this moral line, this character,
- 21:52this ethic, this right and wrong, this good and bad, this total
- 21:56line earned you to keep. We had that, and we grew up with
- 22:02that, and we honored that, and we believed in that. And when
- 22:03we do these interviews, ninety four percent of the time, that's who these
- 22:07people, that's who their heroes are. It's my grandma, it's my mom,
- 22:11it's my uncle John, it's my third grade Sunday school teacher. Right,
- 22:15these ordinary people that do extraordinary things for them. And so I think
- 22:19that's what's missing in all this information that we got out there. Right,
- 22:25there's so much chatter, and so I think the gap is in. The
- 22:30gap is in I think probably the other thing I've talked about, what's underneath
- 22:34the music. Yes, that's the gap for me? Yes, And where
- 22:41did that wisdom go? As I watched my grandchildren? I got six grand
- 22:45babies now, love God, Yay, congratulations thank you. They're so beautiful.
- 22:51But they're all under the age of six, and so as I watched
- 22:55them grow up, and they are fascinated by life, sponges of energy.
- 23:00They want to know, They want to learn, how does that work,
- 23:03what does it do? Like that? Where that starts come from? Why
- 23:06does that frog squeeze on my finger? Everything fascinates them. And then as
- 23:11I work with junior high kids and I work with high school kids, we're
- 23:15teaching them how to ask questions again. We're teaching to dream again and to
- 23:19believe in that again, and to have an imagination. Where does the wonder
- 23:23go? I want to know? So I'm watching mine and I'm like,
- 23:27don't you dare take the wonder from those grand babies. Let them ask the
- 23:30questions, because I want to know who takes that away? Because I think
- 23:34that's where the gap starts. We start telling them, sit down, pay
- 23:38attention, conform, memorize the answer, get the grade, go to school,
- 23:44fit in the box, and that creates the gap right there. Yeah.
- 23:48Yeah, because they're not fishing, and they're not hunting and cannon and
- 23:52looking at birds and watching the stars and changing the tire and learning about life.
- 23:57Yeah. So we actually what you're saying, I think is we contribute
- 24:02to that that gap one no or one TV commercial or one do it this
- 24:10way and not that way, exactly one one just a minute, don't ask,
- 24:15you'll learn, right, one just a minute. I'm busy. I
- 24:18can't just a minute. I can't talk right now. And then they just
- 24:22quit asking. Yeah, what a blessing. I mean, you have six
- 24:26grand babies under the age of six, and I can only imagine, I
- 24:30imagine you just pouring and pouring and pouring blessing into these young young souls.
- 24:37You know. I think that's what they're doing to me, right, They're
- 24:41they're doing that to me. But I think that's the joy of being a
- 24:42grandparent, because when we're When I was a mom, I was so busy
- 24:45trying to be a good mom. Right, I wanted all my eyes tartted,
- 24:49my te's crossed in the dentist appointment, and a's and science and good
- 24:52science projects and those in their hair. Right, I wanted. I wanted
- 24:56to be a perfect mom. And I think I missed the wonder. And
- 25:00I think that's what grandmothers get. I think we get the wonder. Yes,
- 25:03because I'm not responsible anymore, for none of that is mine. And
- 25:10so I get the wonder. So I get tents and the living room,
- 25:11the cupcakes at breakfast and where does cinnamon come from? And we get to
- 25:15find out I love it. Yeah, And like my mom says, you
- 25:18know, I can always send them home absolutely spoiled. Yeah, little sugar
- 25:25maybe, but we're sending them home. Oh my, So, Stacey,
- 25:30is there anything that you would like to comment on further, or anything that
- 25:34you wished i'd asked you that I did not. Oh, you know,
- 25:38I love to have conversations with you, my friend. I could just talk
- 25:41to you all day. Right, So here's how about I lay out a
- 25:47challenge, not necessarily a challenge, but a little mind candy for your audience.
- 25:52I would like to challenge them to see if they can take a moment
- 25:56and step back and find out what's underneath the music for them. When you
- 26:04learn to tap dance, you learn that you can't dance to the music because
- 26:08the music changes, It goes up, it goes down, it fades,
- 26:12it speeds up. But underneath there's this one sound that never changes and that
- 26:18keeps everything else in rhythm, and that's your dance partner. So who's your
- 26:25dance partner underneath all this music that's going on right now? Do you know?
- 26:30Who are you with no hat on? Who are you not in someone
- 26:34else's costume that they'd laid out for you for the day? But who are
- 26:40you underneath the music? Wow? And how do you keep the steps going
- 26:45when the music changes? I love you? Yeah, thank you. Well,
- 26:49you have to know the dance right. Okay. Have you ever been
- 26:52driving down the highway listening to your favorite song on the radio, music's turned
- 26:57up? You're a one man conserpt, best singer on the planet, right
- 27:02rocking out? Yes, and you hit that moment of white noise and you
- 27:06go oh, and you have a choice to make break in. You either
- 27:10change the station or you keep singing your song. And in a minute,
- 27:15the white noise goes away and you're right on time and that concert continues.
- 27:18Yes, because you know your song. But white noise conflict in your life.
- 27:25It's just white noise in your song. And if you just keep singing,
- 27:30believe it, Just keep singing your song. In a minute, the
- 27:32white noise goes away and that song is right, we're're supposed to be.
- 27:36I love it, Thank you, Thank you, and you know, I
- 27:41obviously didn't get to see you tap dance. I didn't get to see you
- 27:45teach or as a professional dancer. But I feel like I've gotten a little
- 27:49bit of the dancer in you and the musician in you, because to be
- 27:53a tap dancer, you've got to be a really good musician. Yeah,
- 27:59yeah, thank you, Thank you so much, Stacy. And so for
- 28:02our listeners, I know they're going to want to get in touch with you.
- 28:06What's the best way to do that, Stacy, Well, I'm always
