WOW - Carefree

Hanging out with little people is a joy in seeing how they see the world.  There is just such a carefree attitude in how they approach everything. In the seriousness of life and all the things as an adult we need - being carefree gets buried.   As children outgrow toys and put them away, much could be said about as we grow into adulthood, we tend to put away that childlike carefree attitude.  When we can touch back to the past and nostalgia, we can invite carefree living and being.  Being carefree is a quality, state of mind that wants to come out and play more often in our lives.  We just need to invite it and embrace it.  It creates well-being and overflowing joy in our soul.

WOW - Calmness

WOW - Connecting

A Friday night dinner date with a friend, led to unexpected & kind of random connections with a bunch of people.  It's amazing when you stop and take time to talk with people- the things you find out and learn.  We always seem to be in a rush- going and doing.  When we pause- we can have some people human connection moments.  It reminds you of the goodness and commonality of humankind.  It reminds us of the good, the best in humanity and that we really do have more in common than we are led to believe.  Those connections create a thread in the fabric of our lives.  You'll hear the benefits of what those connections do for your wellbeing and mental health.  What if today you played Connect 4?  No, not the game, but played the game of life in connecting with 4 people in conversation.  Have some fun and watch those threads of connection bring more beauty in the world and your life tapestry!

WOW - Chasing Dreams

The power of a dream.  As we kept our eyes and hearts open wide at the marvel of space travel with the crew of Artemis II- while they lived  their dream, they invited all of us to dream big dreams and shown dreams can come true.  I still get the feels of reliving those incredible moments that united us as humankind.  It made me think on what do dreams do?  Why do we need dreams?   We discuss the cost of dreams, and what happens when someone isn't supporting them and how to navigate.  Dreams are unlimited.  They fuel our soul and create space for others to dream dreams.  Keep chasing dreams dreamer!  Bonus- a fun playlist at the end of the podcast.  Dream ON & Dreaming is Free!!!
