Embracing Courage Gin

In this episode, I share a quote by E.E. Cummings about courage. I also share how i was a guest on a podcast and shared some traumatic events, and how today, I listened to a friend's podcast and began a downward spiral to the point of feeling like I needed to start over and do my podcast "the right way."
Thankfully, I decided to hit record...and share my feelings and put one foot in front of the other....and work myself back to a place of certainty...that I am on the right path and it's my journey....not anyone else's.

And I'm back! In this episode, I share why I haven't recorded since March 31. And I honor my younger brother's birthday and the 2 year anniversary of his transition to the Great Beyond. And it was on the same day...today, as a matter of fact.
I share a bit about how I felt after the last episode, about my brother's NDE & initial experiences after he woke up from his stroke.
It's good to be here, and I am full of gratitude & wonder at the ability to share joy, hope & courage with the world!

This episode is inspired by the violence that Asian people are experiencing in the US. Specifically, the incident from Monday, where a 65 year old woman was brutally attacked & stomped on --and nobody went to her rescue.

I do cry in this episode, and I did have to pause recording once. It's real and vulnerable.

Thank you for spending time in my world!

I'm a healthy adult and haven't taken any medications in over 20 years. My last shot was when I went to Basic Training for the Army Reserve at 17 years old.
This episode is about how I made my decision to get vaccinated, and I provide the details and thoughts that I had during the experience.
I didn't mention in the episode that I did cry in my car afterwards because it was scary, and because I can see the light at the end of the tunnel for this pandemic. 6-8 more weeks, and I will have some semblance of feeling safe in public again.

I host a Wednesday night room in Clubpod on Clubhouse. Last night, my topic was Self-Improvement & mental health in podcasting.
My panel included podcasters: Melissa Bright, Samara Hurley, Wayne Cole, Dr. Jennifer Shaw and Rob Actis! It was an amazing night!
I woke up with some thoughts around last night and decided to share them on this episode...and the memories that came up as a result!!
Thank you for listening!!!

When you get invited to a private room on Clubhouse, for the first time.....
You'll have to listen to hear what happens!
