The Gift of the Cosmic Void!

Thursday Dec 05, 2024

Thursday Dec 05, 2024

Today's episode is inspired by an opinion article written by theoretical cosmologist, Paul Sutter. Paul studies the vast amount of 'nothingness' that makes up our universe -- known as the cosmic void. I share some of his musings about finding meaning in the 'void' and my own. 
 
Bottom line: we are not insignificant but so, so rare! I love Paul's writing -- this is a must listen!
 
Thanks so much for listening! I love helping people change (and improve!) their perception of their lives -- aka find more JOY.

Some Very 'Soft' Advice!

Thursday Nov 28, 2024

Thursday Nov 28, 2024

I try not to give a lot of advice -- because I am someone who bristles (intensely) when given advice. BUT! Today, I share some very 'soft' advice around jobs, work, and career. 
 
And, if you are concerned that this podcast is veering towards 'career,' not to worry, my friend! My advice is really about gaining clarity, doing less, and being more open to what shows up! So, let's be honest -- woo woo career advice!
 
Thanks so much for listening! I love helping people change (and improve!) their perception of their lives -- aka find more JOY.

I'm Crazy Lucky Because...

Thursday Nov 14, 2024

Thursday Nov 14, 2024

I'm all about finding new ways to live in appreciation. Sometimes a good prompt, one that allows us to be appreciative of even the smallest things like a wobbly coffee cup not tipping over or Instacart, is all you need! Today's prompt is one of my new faves!
