by John Allen Mollenhauer, Lifestyle Coach
​Note: This is more than an article. It's a mini-guide, and it can change the course of your year and life for the better forever if you go through it and its links.  

What Does it Mean to Set Yourself Up for Success? 
It was a great honor to be a recipient of the chambers' Leader in Business Award at the Annual Luncheon for 2020, along with three leading pros. Thank you to all who were involved in that decision.  I humbly bring that up for one reason, and that is, I had decided that this was going to be a breakthrough year, well in advance. The power of choosing to set yourself up for success, for what's next, new, or desired, is nothing short of remarkable. It's simple when you decide what you are all-in on, you act accordingly, and beautiful things can happen.

Start Strong & Stay Strong for a Breakthrough Year

1/21/2021

 
Picture
​By Entrepreneur Lifestyle Coach, John Allen Mollenhauer, Performance Lifestyle Inc.
Maybe it's a new diet or workout program? A little more sleep? All good, but you've tried that now for how long?  Maybe it's time for a new approach.  Before I share what that "approach" is rooted in, know this; it's not one thing. It's an idea comprised of a series of insights that translate into a series of principles, practices, and a strategy that, when strung together, becomes an approach you can call your own; a method that will create a breakthrough year and a better life, forever.

So how much does Medicare cost? Medicare premiums are based on your household modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) averaged out over the past two years. People with higher incomes pay more – the standard monthly premium plus what’s called an income related adjustment amount (IRMAA). ​

If you or a loved one need long-term care for a chronic illness or, as you age, if you need assistance with the tasks of daily living, you may be interested in home healthcare services.

The Key to Being an Energetic, Healthy and Unstoppable Leader in 2021 and Beyond

12/17/2020

 
Picture
By Lifestyle Coach, John Allen Mollenhauer “JAM". Creator of the Performance Lifestyle®  
I am a lifestyle entrepreneur and performance coach; you can find my articles in Around the Chamber.  Upon talking with me, you might expect me to talk about eating and exercise, probably sleep, how you’re thinking, and more among several other aspects of your lifestyle. And if so, you would be, in part, correct. But that level of granularity is not where the conversation starts.  It starts with a conversation about achieving your goals, not necessarily "how-to," but rather, "how-you," get into the things and follow through on what you want to accomplish, complete, and realize in your life.

Any Property Tax Relief From COVID-19 Impact?

12/1/2020

 
Picture
by Richard De Angelis & Thomas Olson of McKirdy, Riskin, Olson & DellaPelle, P.C.
As 2020 draws to a close (and not a moment too soon) we are all hopeful for a better 2021. Regardless of whether the spread of Covid-19 is slowed, or the civil unrest in our cities calms, the economic pain  of 2020 will likely linger through next year.  No industries have experienced this pain more, in terms of immediacy and impact, than retail stores, restaurants, hotels, and personal service establishments. And while elected officials debate programs to try to lessen the sting, one area rarely discussed is property tax relief.

Medicare 101: What Medicare Does Not Cover

12/1/2020

by Staff, Porzio Bromberg & Newman, P.C.
Medicare coverage is complicated and, as we saw in my blog post Medicare 101: What Medicare is and Who is Eligible, it is composed of several parts. As you consider what parts of Medicare to enroll in, you should be aware of what Medicare covers and what it doesn’t cover. That way, you can plan carefully and be sure you are getting the health insurance and services that you need.

Four Health Conditions Caused by Poor Oral Health

by Dr. Alan Rauchberg, Rauchberg Dental Group
​
The health of your mouth and body are intertwined and can impact each other more than many people realize. That's not to say that a small oral health problem that you get treated can manifest illness in another part of your body. When left untreated it can impact our body's ability to fight off illness.  Not only can routine preventative care keep you from needing invasive dental treatment but it can also preserve your oral health, in turn, your physical well-being. ​

Happy Holidays, chamber friends! It’s getting to be that time of year again. We are heading into the holiday season. This season is filled with food, family, and friends. However, “The most wonderful time of the year” is not the most wonderful time for your diet and maintaining your weight.  Therefore, to stay healthy we have to make sure that we do not completely let ourselves go and remember “a Holiday is not a Holi-month”.

Medicare 101: What Medicare is and Who is Eligible

by Staff, Porzio Bromberg & Newman, P.C.
​
It’s often assumed that the benefits from Medicare just happen. People get older, they sign up, and benefits begin to flow. For most of us that’s not true. Maximizing Medicare health benefits in retirement requires education and careful planning. To plan adequately, I counsel clients to begin thinking about Medicare well before they need it and to understand some key principles. ​
