The Path to Joy

Making a List and Checking It Twice!

I couldn't help the Santa reference but no, this is not a Christmas-themed episode. This episode is all about 'the worries' -- that list of things that keep you up at night, ruminate on, can't stop turning over in your mind. Today, l chat about one tool I use to handle all of that uncertainty and worry.

Some Requested Advice!

Today's episode is a bit out-of-left field. I don't really love giving advice, especially business advice. But, today, I'm stepping outside of my comfort zone and sharing some advice (100% solicited!) that I recently shared about creating my business.

Words Create Your World!

Today’s episode is all about words. Words have so much power and sometimes we all get a little sloppy with them. It’s not intentional -- we do it without thinking. Putting ourselves down in jest or ’hedging’ so as not to set ourselves up for disappointment. I do this all the time. And I think it’s about time I ’cleaned’ up some of my language.

Making Some New Habits!

Today's episode is about habits. Breaking habits and starting new ones is soooo hard -- so much of what we do is patterned and habitual. But, I do think at least this old dog can learn some new tricks!

The Earthly Garden of Emotions!

I know the title of today's episode seems a bit opaque. I promise it's not. I don't think my writing style could ever be described as anything but 'accessible.' 
 
I do love this concept of the 'earthly garden of emotions' -- proposed by the spiritual teacher, Mark Nepo. The idea that all emotions spring from the same soil. An explanation for why we can cry and laugh at the same moment. Listen and let me know what you think!

A Trio of Mothers!

Today's episode is about this past Mother's Day -- there were three mothers in the house this year celebrating. And, yes, I realize I'm a few weeks late with this one --  better late than never, right? It was a good mother's day: amidst hummus and kofta, there was this moment for me of 'how did we all get here?'

As the World Comes Alive...

As the world comes alive, I'm reminded how nature takes it's time. Not rushing. Patiently waiting until the time is right and then -- whoosh, everything is alive. And so I need to have the bravery to be patient and wait, too. For everything that's coming!

Still Missing You, Dad.

You probably guessed from the title of today's episode that today I'm chatting about my dad. Although I'm sad -- it's not a 'sad' episode. I share some of the smaller stories about my dad that I don't often tell.

I Had to Share a Bit More...

As promised, retreat episode #2! Some observations and thoughts -- ranging from the power of a voice to my MOM! It's hard to say goodbye to these retreat weekends so I've loved keeping that energy alive over the last couple weeks!

With Awareness, We Do Better!

I recently wrapped up my sixth retreat so I'm going to have a couple 'retreat-centric' episodes. Today, I'm sharing a big theme of this retreat -- how, with awareness, we do better than the previous generation. We will still make lots of mistakes, but we won't make the same ones.
