    The Power of Divine Trust

    In this episode, I dive into the transformative power of trust—the kind that allows you to take a leap of faith and fully embrace the path unfolding before you. Inspired by Rumi’s words, “Live life as if everything is rigged in your favour,” I explore what it really means to trust that God has your back, even when the way forward isn’t clear. I share a personal story about how my family let go of expectations, embraced uncertainty, and stepped into a life of adventure—one that turned out to be more beautiful than we ever imagined. Through this journey, I’ve learned some powerful lessons about faith, surrender, and listening to that quiet inner voice guiding us forward. If you’ve ever struggled with letting go of control or wondered if you’re on the right path, this episode is for you. Let’s explore what it means to trust deeply, release attachment to outcomes, and allow life to unfold in ways beyond our wildest dreams. For a deeper dive into my teachings, grab a copy of Whispers of the Soul, where I guide you through The Wisdom Way to higher consciousness.

    Three Ways We Relate to Inner Wisdom—And How to Go Deeper

    Have you ever wondered how well you listen to your inner wisdom? In this episode, we explore the three types of inner listeners—those who don’t recognize their soul’s whispers, those who hear them but choose not to follow, and those who embrace them as their guide. Where do you fall most of the time? And how can you strengthen your connection to your inner wisdom? Join me as we uncover practical ways to shift from doubt or hesitation into trust and alignment with your highest self. In this episode I call back to a previous episode - Facing the Worthlessness Gremlin. It's two episodes back.

    Unraveling the Stories We Tell Ourselves with Adele Fedorak

    Have you ever stopped to consider how the stories you tell—about yourself, about others, about the world—shape your reality? In this episode, I sit down with the insightful Adele Fedorak to explore story intelligence—a powerful concept that goes beyond storytelling and into the very fabric of how we perceive and navigate life.

Through her work coaching professional women and leading small, curated "story pods," she helps people uncover, refine, and reshape their narratives in ways that bring greater clarity, confidence, and connection.

I also share a recent personal experience where I found myself caught in an old, limiting story and the impact it has had on me. This conversation is rich, thought-provoking, and so relevant in today’s world, where discernment and perspective-taking are more important than ever. Join us as we unpack the power of story and how you can use it to create deeper meaning and positive change in your life. About Adele Fedorek Adele helps professional women grow their natural storytelling abilities so that they speak clearly and confidently about what’s important.

    Forgiveness is a Choice: Finding Freedom in Letting Go

    Welcome back to another heartfelt episode of the Joyful Journey. Today, I’m sharing a powerful chapter from my book, Whispers of the Soul, titled Forgiveness is a Choice. This topic has been on my heart lately—how we forgive others, and perhaps more importantly, how we forgive ourselves. I’ll take you on a journey of healing and self-discovery as I explore the pain of holding on, the courage to let go, and the incredible freedom that comes with forgiveness. Together, we’ll reflect on what it truly means to release old stories and embrace compassion for ourselves and others. I also share some reflective exercises to help you reconnect with your inner child—a beautiful source of love, joy, and wisdom—and let that child guide you toward deeper self-forgiveness. This episode is for anyone who feels stuck, weighed down by the past, or in need of a little more kindness for themselves. I hope it inspires you to take the courageous step of choosing forgiveness and finding the freedom to move forward. If you’re ready to dive deeper into this work, I’d love for you to explore my book, Whispers of the Soul. As always, I’m here to connect—feel free to reach out using the links in the show notes.
