    <title>Here to UPLIFT Podcast with Lolo Fisher</title>
    <description>Hosted by Lolo Fisher, the Here to UPLIFT Podcast centers the stories of women entrepreneurs, community leaders, business owners, and change makers who have forged their way through adversity to reach their current success and now positively impact, influence, and uplift others. 

A message from Lolo: &quot;Hey y&apos;all! I&apos;m Lolo, founder of UPLIFT Community Wellness. I&apos;m on a mission to uplift my community through movement, mindfulness, and radical healing. Along my journey, I have met so many amazing people committed to uplifting themselves, their families, and their communities. Not only have I been inspired by their stories, but I&apos;ve also been able to apply the lessons they shared with me to continue my own journey in building my dreams and helping others along the way. I decided to start this podcast as a home to hold and share these stories to pass the inspiration along. Together, you as listeners and the many speakers you&apos;ll hear on this show, we can UPLIFT ourselves and create ripples in our community for positive change.&quot;</description>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Today, we're tackling a concept that's been thrown around quite frequently - colorblindness. Now, don't get me wrong, I appreciate the sentiment behind this idea, but sorry, I don't subscribe to it. In fact, I believe it's time to challenge this notion and discuss why it's important to acknowledge and celebrate the beautiful spectrum of colors that make up our world. <br /><br />So, if you're ready to have an honest conversation about race, identity, and why colorblindness just doesn't cut it, then buckle up and let's get started! Don't forget to like, subscribe, and share my podcast to support! <br /><br />Connect with me on Instagram, Threads, Facebook, and YouTube <strong>@UPLIFTbyLolo </strong><br /><br />Let's get started, shall we?</p>

      <itunes:summary>Episode 06 features special guest Kyra Birks, founder and owner of Paradise Dance Studio or “PDS” for short in Fremont, Ca. Her studio is called “paradise” dance studio because she has cultivated it to be  “A Getaway” for dancers to create &amp; express themselves! 

In this episode we dive into topics such as
- full circle moments that help you realize your purpose
- women&apos;s empowerment, and how challenging it can be in the dance industry
- identity and passion exploration
- what is lightwork and how can a dance teacher be a lightworker
- and the importance of building your business for you and NOT to impress others.

When Kyra and I sat down in her beautiful studio and recorded this podcast in Fall 2022, I was about halfway into my journey of running UPLIFT Community Wellness Studio in Merced. Now, at the time this is being released in Spring 2023, I just closed my physical studio in Merced and am pivoting to some varied offerings, including an online studio and seasonal women&apos;s empowerment events. You’ll hear us talking about both of our studios, but I definitely want y’all to listen in to these huge lessons and inspirations that have brought her to running her studio for over 5 years now!</itunes:summary>

      <itunes:summary>In Episode 05, I interview social media coach and millennial entrepreneur Cristina Cortes. 

Cristina took the leap from a stable full-time job in the tech industry to starting her own online business and becoming her own boss. Now, she coaches millennial women nano-influencers and small business owners on how to monetize their social media to build their personal brand and business. Her goal is to ensure powerful influence and money end up in the hands of good people who will make the world a better place, with an intentional focus on women of color.

In today’s talk, Cristina walks us through her journey before the leap, from having to explore and redefine her identity, to overcoming an abusive relationship, and pushing through fear and anxiety to say YES to using her talents and skills to build up her own business.

Jackie is one of the most impactful breathwork instructors I have ever experienced. In this episode, she details her journey into becoming a trauma-informed breathwork teacher and how she had to release old patterns including excessive drinking or just being in the wrong environment to move forward in healing from sexual trauma. She now lives a very healthy and holistic life, inspiring others to heal and grow from past trauma and take control back over their lives.

While Jackie currently does not utilize social media, we&apos;d love for you to share with us how her story impacts you through email or comments on the YouTube video!

      <description><![CDATA[Episode 03 features special guest, Lorrie Dee Escobar.

As a stretch therapist, Health Coach, and Certified Trapeze and Gravity yoga instructor, Lorrie takes on a holistic approach to working with clients to help expand their body awareness, incorporating breath work, hydration, mobility work, and conversations around mental and spiritual health. She really understands and leads with the trifecta concept of mind-body-spirit.

In today’s chat, we talk not only about movement and wellness, but also the pressure of making choices that your family and friends may not always understand and support, shifting friendships, and how the unexpected and sometimes traumatic experiences can be the exact thing we need to pivot and recenter ourselves.

In Episode 02, my special guest is… Dominique Bland. </p><p>Dominique, or who I often refer to as Dom, is impacting so many women in a positive way through the world of beauty. She has been a signed model since she was 16, having recently walked at New York Fashion Week, is a licensed esthetician, doing lashes, waxing, eyebrows, skincare, the works honey, and has assorted entrepreneurial investments and work she does behind the scenes as well. All of this while raising her beautiful, strong, brilliant three children! </p><p>In today’s chat, I ask Dom about the journey that led up to her work in the beauty world and the hard life lessons she learned along the way, and she is soooo transparent with us about the delicate balance of family, finances, and your personal joy and confidence. Whether you’re watching for business tips, wellness tips, or just in general to hear the story of a rising female entrepreneur doing her thang - you’re in the right place. </p><p>You can connect with Dominique here: </p><p>Instagram: instagram.com/dominant__beauty & instagram.com/dom__michel </p><p>You can connect with Lolo here: </p><p>Instagram: instagram.com/upliftbylolo </p><p>TikTok: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbXJ4clZMMnFsX0NvdlBnSlp3Y1d3UFJ5WEozUXxBQ3Jtc0ttNVI3UmQ2eEFWcXJ0MDVBaG82ckJwNzZmRjh3NlF6VDU3Q1JJT3hTQkI5STA3N3k3ckRLejZCVncwSjhjSzlaUmFXWWZURmYzS1NMSWxIQmRzXzVqQzhsTGtKYVFVa2p0OHhMeFRncDVpUlFHSEc5WQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tiktok.com%2F%40upliftbylolo&v=OsHxv0Zv6aM" target="_blank">https://www.tiktok.com/@upliftbylolo</a> </p><p>LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/lorenefisher </p><p>More: linktr.ee/upliftbylolo </p><p>Your support means a lot!
