Christy Cashman, author of The Truth About Horses, shares why it took her 9 years to write the book and what motivated her. We also talk about how her characters came to life in her dreams and her childhood dream of writing a book. From her previous career in acting and producing, Christy has now ventured into creating Kilkea Castle with her husband and founding YouthINK, a creative youth mentorship program. She is also committed to mental health and practices various techniques like writing in a gratitude journal and cold plunge therapy. Thank you, Christy, for being on the podcast and for our wonderful conversations about belonging and abandonment. I look forward to reading the script, meeting for coffee and wine, and enjoying a delicious lunch in Somerville Massachusetts.

Today, I had the pleasure of hosting former Bachelor Ben Higgins on my podcast! Ben is not only incredibly kind, but also authentically genuine. We delved into his philanthropic endeavors, particularly his passion for Generous Coffee and his latest project, Come Sit With Me. This initiative focuses on fostering inclusivity and ensuring that no one feels like an outsider.

During our conversation, I thoroughly enjoyed catching up with Ben and discussing the past three years since his previous appearance on the podcast. He shared some exciting insights about Bachelor Nation and his new role as co-host of the iHeartRadio Almost Famous podcast alongside Ashley Iacoetti. Together, they delve into all things happening in Bachelor Nation, including the latest news about recent Bachelor Joey and Kelsy. We also had the pleasure of discussing OGs Trista Sutter and Bob Guiney, who have joined Almost Famous Podcast offering intriguing insights into the early days of Trista's season and the behind-the-scenes happenings in the mansion.

Ben's book, "Alone In Plain Sight," sheds light on his personal experiences with loneliness, further emphasizing the importance of his newest project, Come Sit With Me. Ben is actively engaged in speaking engagements at schools and corporations, continuing his quest for inclusivity and making others feel valued and included in conversations. His dedication to spreading light, hope, energy, and vibrancy is undeniably one of his life's missions.

I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Ben for graciously sharing his time on the podcast. His platform and passion for positivity have undoubtedly made a significant impact on many individuals. Jess and Wayland are truly fortunate to have him as a loving husband and dog dad.

Meet my friend Ross Pino who’s main focus is to conceptualize the awakening process. Who’s juxtaposition allows you to see the story of life and death, good and evil, and the duality within the world. He also wants to set people free from negative mindsets and destructive thought patterns, and support their fullest elevated versions of themselves. 



With only six years of art experience he had a gravitational pull as he said “ something inside was manifesting and pulling me to draw and create” we laughed and he said “ my guides were apart of this magical journey. Along with his inspiration from his daughter who was three  at the time and began doodling hearts on his skulls. He embraced her liberating freedom and he began to emulate that mind set into his pieces of artwork, combining the light and dark, and duality of life experiences.

 

Today, Ross has recently opened his art gallery in NYC showcasing a collection of pieces that define his authentic disposition and colorful juxtaposition  talent on canvas. Moving forward, he is aspiring to paint murals with his buddy Jason Naylor,  who is definitely a close colleague and alter ego partner that they sometimes seem to be the same person, with similar interests and passions. Many of these mural collaborations can be seen globally and domestically. The next collab will be Your Not Alone Murals @youarenotalonemurals  supporting mental conversations about mental health, posting of this event will be shared in his stories. 



Thank you Ross for sharing the moments on the podcast. You  definitely have  cultivated a divisive audience with  art enthusiasts like Kesha and Channing Tatum, and of  course @ Coming From The Heart Podcast ❤️
