    When Life Reroutes You the Hard Way

    What happens when everything is going according to plan—and suddenly, it isn't? A young man's college dreams in another country unexpectedly fall apart, leaving his family shocked and wondering what comes next. And I recount the story of one of the worst days of my own life—a day when I walked away from a job, terrified I'd made a terrible mistake. Looking back, that decision swiftly led me toward a teaching career, meaningful relationships, and opportunities I never could have imagined at the time ...and is still having an  impact today. But how do we recognize the possibilities when we're still standing in the middle of something we didn't want? In this episode, we're talking about life's unexpected detours, the power of curiosity, and why a disappointing turn of events doesn't have to mean something has gone wrong. Sometimes the Honey doesn't become clear until much later. We don't have to see it immediately. We just have to leave room for the possibility that there's more to the story. Also in this episode: I share my Honey Reminder Digital Collection and invite listeners to send me a voicemail for a chance to receive the collection free. I'm also inviting listeners to join me for a conversation on a future episode! Visit: HoneyinEverything.com There is Honey in everything. Let's find yours.

    From Vision Loss to Sight Stones

    What happens when one of life’s hardest moments becomes the beginning of something you never could have imagined? When Angela Ricketts’ five-year-old son was diagnosed with choroideremia (CHM), a rare progressive eye disease, her family’s world changed. What began with fear, uncertainty and questions about her son’s future eventually led Angela back to something she'd done as a little girl. In this episode of Where’s the Honey?, Angela joins Rebecca to talk about her family’s experience with progressive vision loss, the community they found along the way, and the creation of a movement that is helping to fund CHM research. It’s a beautiful example of something we talk about often here: Finding the Honey doesn’t mean pretending the hard thing isn’t hard.  The Honey is what grows from it. Angela’s story is about motherhood, hope, community, perspective—and turning an experience she never wanted into something that is now helping other people. 🍯 There is honey in everything.

    Access Denied: When a Closed Door Leads Somewhere Better

    What do you do when something you've worked hard on suddenly hits a closed door? Rebecca spent hours creating a new Honey Reminder Digital Collection, upgrading her website, building the shop and getting everything ready—only to receive an unexpected message: Access denied. The payment processor rejected the application, the website upgrade couldn't simply be reversed, and for a while it looked like a lot of time, money and effort had gone in exactly the wrong direction. It would have been easy to stay angry and decide the whole thing was a disaster. Instead, Rebecca did something she's learned. She walked away. In this episode of Where's the Honey?, Rebecca shares a real-life example of what can happen when we stop feeding the story of what's going wrong, give ourselves some space, and come back willing to see possibilities we couldn't see before. What looked like a closed door turned out to be one small detour—and will ultimately lead to something even better. It's a reminder that Finding the Honey doesn't mean pretending you like what's happening. It simply means leaving enough room for the possibility that you don't know the whole story yet. Plus, Rebecca shares what's coming next for Where's the Honey?, including upcoming guests, the new Honey Reminder Digital Collection, Fan Mail and ways to support the show.

    When Countries are at War

    What if there's honey in war? War is something most of us don't want, understand, or know how to change. So how can we possibly find anything useful or meaningful in it? In this episode, Rebecca explores war through the lens of Honey in Everything—looking at contrast, perspective, trust, personal power, and the bigger picture we may not be able to initially see from our human vantage point. Rather than focusing our energy on what we don't want, what happens when we begin imagining and giving our attention to what we do want? Rebecca shares why she believes our true power is not in anger or fighting, but in trust, and why tending to our own "frequency" may be one of the most important ways we can contribute to the world. Because even when we don't like what we're seeing... there's still honey somewhere in it. Send us Fan Mail Support the show Want to help keep the flow of honey going?
