Candy O’Terry

“Always be ready because you never know when your big moment is going to come.” Candy O’Terry was working at Magic 106.7 when that moment came. The evening disc jockey was laid off and Candy had her first night on air – the start of a 25 year career in radio. She now has three podcasts, a radio network, is a published author, and is an executive communications coach at Brunner Communications. Tune in to hear about Candy’s journey.

“There is great joy in striving, I believe this, when we try, when we work as hard as we can, when we climb that mountain. It’s the journey; it’s not the destination.”

Ta’u Pupu’a

When an injury ended his professional football career, Ta’u Pupu’a committed to pursuing his love of music. Moving to New York without a firm plan, Ta’u formed a connection with renowned opera singer Kiri Te Kanawa that led him to Julliard and a career that has taken him around the world. The hardest part of his journey, recreating his life and career, he says, was “Letting one go. Because in order to accept the other one, you have to let it go, so your hands could be open to receive the other one.”
