    Twice a Daughter; Adoption and Identity with Julie McGue

    What is the journey like when you’re adopted and begin the search for your identity beyond your adoptive family?  In this heart-warming and vulnerable conversation with Julie McGue, author of Twice a Daughter: A Search for Identity, Family, and Belonging, we dive into our own personal experiences of adoption from different angles. As a twin adopted in the sixties, Julie had the challenge of finding her birth parents, and the disappointment that initially came from her attempt for contact. Our conversation leads to the importance of awareness, following your knowing, and moving through grief, excitement, and the roller coaster of emotions that come from learning where you came from.  About the Guest: Julie Ryan McGue is an American writer, a domestic adoptee, and an identical twin. She explores the topics of finding out who you are, where you belong and making sense of it. She is the author of two books: Twice a Daughter: A Search for Identity, Family, and Belonging, and Belonging Matters: Conversations on Adoption, Family, and Kinship. Her third book, a prequel to Twice a Daughter, is due to be released in November 2024.

  3. The Power of Presence in Grief with Heidi Dunstan

    2023-09-24

    The Power of Presence in Grief with Heidi Dunstan

    In this episode Heidi Dunstan and I have a candid discussion about the importance of talking about and acknowledging one another in grief.  In the past few years it is hard to come across another human that has been free of experiencingloss.  We are all grieving.  For some it is fresh, for others it is aged, but remains – because grief is not bad – it’s a testament to have loved. This episode is a gentle reminder to yourself as a griever, or as someone who is in the sphere of another in grief that it is not simply the loss that must be acknowledged, but the path of healing and hope that comes from allowing others to be seen.  To truly help; honour, have empathy, love, and be present for and with another in their journey.  With allowing it to be in what it is – tears, laughter, dark humor, or even silence. This episode will touch your heart for certain. About The Guest Heidi Dunstan is a Certified Grief Educator and best-selling author. Her passion to help others, learn more about grief, and how to support others who are grieving came after losing her husband unexpectedly almost three years ago. Her experience with friends and loved ones saying the wrong thing or completely disappearing gave her first-hand knowledge that many people have never learned how to grieve which often leaves grievers to grieve in isolation.

    Intentionality and Connection

    In this episode I take you on an adventure and invite you into some of the ways, as wacky as it may seem, that I bring intentionality to something that may seem quite silly.  Being intentional speaks to Bashar’s 5 laws: You exist; All there is – is now; All is one and one is all; what you put out you get back, and everything changes except these 4 laws. In the realm of wellness, I share a unique opportunity that is brought forth with the intention to spread love and light – to inspire hope -and to connect, even if for a moment.  I hope you enjoy this episode, and it makes you smile!

  5. 3 Steps To Shift Your Observations

    2023-09-10

    3 Steps To Shift Your Observations

    Your observation of the world. Is your opportunity to shift what you are seeing. If you are looking for negative, bad, trouble or challenge -  those things are a lot more likely to appear.  When you're looking for possibilities, openness and opportunity, those too are more likely to appear.   In this podcast I offer you a challenge I presented in our weekly SHINE group meeting. Shine is a group of people that come together to talk about mind, body, spirit, wellness, around challenges with food, body image, movement and recognizing that whole wellness is the most important part of wellness. In our SHINE group this week ew were talking about looking for acts of kindness.  I invited our members to share an act of kindness that they had themselves personally observed recently.   One person shared observing an act of kindness between two children. Where one just naturally reached out to help another one that was falling. Put their arm out as the child was falling, steadied them and returned to playing in a natural sequence of events.  That kind of kindness, that automatic response kindness happens often.  Observing it is so beautiful. Listen to learn the three steps to shifting your observation skills, and ultimately the way you see the world around you. www.freejoybook.com About the Host: Tanya's mission is to create a legacy of self-love for women that reinforces trust in themselves through our programs, coaching, podcast, and book, The Trifecta of Joy!

    Overcoming Insomnia with Lana Walsh

    What do you do if a lack of sleep seems to be stealing your life away from you?  Lana Walsh, sleep and insomnia expert, shares her own experience of sleep challenges.  When she was told to “just close her eyes and go to sleep” she realized that this was a problem that so many have, but few discuss or address.  Her passion for assisting others to train their minds, bodies and brains for sleep has led to her speaking with organizations and individuals to enhance their sleep quality and overcome sleep difficulties. While it’s a natural part of life, our internal world, and fear of not sleeping can stand in the way of rest – leading to insomnia.  Lana offers research-based techniques to help you through sleep and insomnia issues.  By using my own challenges as an example we dive into to medication for sleep, and the desire to sleep naturally, without medication. This inspiring conversation will offer you techniques to start using today!  Be sure to check out her sleep savvy quiz (link below) to see where you are in your own sleep adventure.
