8 | An Invitation to Stay Open-minded

In Episode 8, I open the episode up sharing about how I’m currently in the process of reclaiming my goofy and playful inner child. I then go into how and why spirituality has been such a big part of my life lately, and why it is coming in so strong in these early episodes I’m releasing. I explore how both open-mindedness and curiosity have played a very big and important role in the growth I have experienced over the last few years. I then invite my listeners to practice staying open-minded themselves, and I share my dream of being a bridge between many different worlds - with my main goal of assisting humanity along in remembering who we are at our core, and continuing to call in more love and compassion.
