Rebbekah White

Rebbekah White was an army wife for 8 years before her husband was medically discharged. Rebekah currently resides in Sylvania, Ohio where she is the mother to three boys ages 15, 13 and 7. Rebekah graduated in 1991 from Bedford High School and is the owner of Heal Yourself Talk Radio as well as several other online businesses that deal with the health industry.

Rebbekah started Heal Yourself Talk Radio out of a desire to reach out to others and teach them how to learn how to heal their mind, body and soul. After years of dealing with depression and other physical ailments, Rebbekah realized she wanted to help others learn how to deal with depression and other areas of life. Heal Yourself Talk Radio is a great starting point for information no matter what you are dealing with in your life.

Rebbekah started the Heal Yourself Magazine to bring together some of the finest authors, products and reviews for the health and wellness industry. After many months of working behind the scenes the time was right and in November of 2008 Heal Yourself Magazine was founded as another resource from Heal Yourself Talk Radio.

“I am a mom to 3 boys ages 15, 13 and 7 and have been married to my highschool sweetheart for 17 years this August. I have been dealing with depression now for almost 14 years, I was diagnosed with Bell’s Palsy on January 3, 2009 and am looking for ways to deal with an auto immune defiency through holistic and mind set changes. Interesting to find out that most dis-eases are caused by how we not only treat our body (not eating right) but also by the way we are treating ourselves….

My oldest son was diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome two years ago and last fall my youngest son was diagnosed with Autism. My middle son was born with asthma and my husband is a Type 1 Diabetic…why am I sharing all of this?

There are so many different aspects of my life, I am able to share my own experiences and help others who may be dealing with the same thing in their own lives.

Because of my own personal journey I felt a strong urge to start an talk radio show to offer guidance and help for those who are looking for ways to heal their mind, body and soul no matter what the source of pain is.  After years of learning to deal with depression and other health issues and feeling all alone and looking for resources and others to talk to I felt a calling to start a website to help others. Two years after starting that website I wanted to reach out to more people not just women and I was given the idea to do a podcast and sold that first site…so on August 10, 2006 Heal Yourself Talk Radio was born and has been going strong ever since.” -Rebbekah White

About Buffy Lauer

Buffy Lauer and Rebbekah White

My name is Buffy Lauer and I am so excited to be joining Rebbekah White and Heal Yourself Talk Radio/Magazine. This past year I turned 40 and have had a tremendous opportunity for reflection, healing, and growth. Born and raised in the Toledo area, I had the privilege of being adopted into a wonderful family. Although there have been many years of understanding and working through my abandonment issues from my birth parents, I am truly grateful for the family I have been given and believe there are no mistakes-I am exactly where I am meant to be… Which also includes being a single mom to James (age 11) and Ellie (age 8).

When James was born dairy intolerant I chose to give up my “amazing” career as a Purchasing Manager. Although I knew this was the right choice for my son’s health, it came with a massive identity crisis. This was when my emotional breakdown and an array of health issues began… and little did I know this was the beginning of my soul search to find my true identity and quit living behind the smoke screens of the false ego my career and financial stature had given me.

Parenting did not come easy for me. I struggled from fertility issues to a multitude of endocrine issues which affected my emotional and physical well being. Two surgeries and 10 years later I was diagnosed with Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome. There was so little being done to treat this disorder at the time that it took me 2 more years to find a doctor conducting research to take my case. Now, 4 years later, 75 pounds lighter, and lots of joy with-in, I am the healthy parent I’ve always longed to be.

I live an actively healthy lifestyle and my favorite sports include: wakeboarding, riding 4-wheelers, and snowmobiling. Growing-up, I had many great adventures of whitewater rafting and some mountain climbing which gave me a true passion for the great outdoors. My children have far surpassed my abilities on the wakeboard but it’s a great way to spend our day on the water as a family.

My mother became ill with Parkinson’s disease when I was nine so my father was my primary parent. He was an amazingly successful entrepreneur and raised me within the business. He taught me the ins and outs of running a business, along with balance of work, family, and fun. He also passed along his witty creative writing skills. I truly look forward to using all of these gifts to connect with you through the Heal Yourself Network.

Sincerely,

Buffy Lauer
