Listen "SANFP E21: Health and Wellness discussion with Dan Johnson and Kimberly Mayfield"
Episode Synopsis
These days, since COVID, there has been a lot of new found awareness and discussion about the importance of finding our life balance. Our health and wellbeing depend upon mindful self-care and intentional time spent on things that bring us joy and inner peace. People seem to be focused more on their health; seeing doctors more often and discovering myriad alternative methods to keep us happy, healthy, poised, and calm. Today we bring two people to the table who help individuals manage their physical and mental health, and also give employers a way to support their employees with a variety of programs to teach people how to be healthier, and not let work and stress dominate our days.ABOUT ~ Daniel Johnson I was raised in Tucson and began working at 10 years old as a shoeshine boy at Armando Sierra's barbershop on Broadway & Swan next to the Kon Tiki restaurant. By the time that I was done at the age of 12, I had assumed the title of Shoeshine Preservation Expert & Consultant. That was my first experience in free enterprise which I pursued until I was 40 years old. I feel in love with human dynamics at the age of 20 & read everything that I could related to motivation and well-being. In high school I began working at European Health Spas as a spa attendant, I became a personal fitness trainer then a manager. Over the next 2 decades I co-owned & operated over 20 fitness centers & athletic clubs. For 8 years I was a sponsored professional club racquetball player having held contracts with Wilson Sporting Goods & Ektelon Racquet Sports. I became the Executive Director of the Wellness Council in 1995, which is a 501(c)3 nonprofit. I published a book in Jan. 2022 titled Twelve Insights For Mindful Living- An Awareness Approach To Health and Happiness.
