Women at Halftime Podcast Deborah Johnson

Have you ever felt like there’s more to wealth than just money? In this insightful episode, my husband Greg and I delve into the concept of "invisible wealth," exploring assets that aren’t immediately tangible but hold immense value
"Invisible wealth" refers to assets or resources that are not immediately apparent or tangible but hold significant value to individuals or societies. While financial wealth is often the most visible form of prosperity, there are several other areas of invisible wealth that are equally important but may go unnoticed. If we only measure dollars, other areas are sacrificed. Greg, my husband, and I focus on some of those areas and how some of them impact our lives.
From cultural assets and social capital to human capital and health, we discuss how these unseen riches can profoundly impact our lives. As a financial adviser, Greg has seen both ends of the wealth spectrum and shares his wisdom on achieving a balanced life. We touch on the importance of family, the joy of environmental assets like nature, the power of social connections, and the value of lifelong learning. Our goal is to inspire you to measure happiness beyond financial success and to recognize the wealth you have in various life dimensions.
Recognizing and valuing these forms of invisible wealth is essential for promoting holistic development and sustainable prosperity. While financial wealth is important, it is only one aspect of overall well-being. Investing in social relationships, education, health, environmental conservation, and personal fulfillment enriches lives and strengthens communities in ways that extend beyond monetary measures.

Have you ever encountered someone who delves into the intricacies of hand analysis? Perhaps you've come across the term "scientific hand analysis" but aren't quite sure what it entails. Like many, I initially associated hand analysis with the mysticism of palm reading often found in fairground booths. However, I discovered that scientific hand analysis, also known as dermatoglyphics, is an entirely different field altogether. My perception shifted after an enlightening interview with Jayne Sanders, a master scientific hand analyst, who provided clarity on this fascinating practice.
Scientific hand analysis involves the study of fingerprint patterns, palm lines, and hand shapes to glean insights into individual traits, behaviors, and potential talents. The depth of understanding it offers intrigued me, prompting me to delve deeper into the subject. What particularly drew me to interview Jayne was her multifaceted background as a passionate horsewoman, deeply invested in riding and owning horses over the years. Her expertise in both scientific hand analysis and equestrian pursuits intrigued me, especially considering how she has seamlessly integrated her love for these magnificent animals with her practice of hand analysis. 
In this article, we'll explore how Jayne's profound connection with horses, coupled with her expertise in scientific hand analysis, has guided her towards living a life in alignment with finding her purpose and defining her ideal lifestyle.

In this podcast about celebrating moms, I re-read a letter I wrote to my dear mother in 2019, some years ago before she graduated to her heavenly home some months later. As I read it again, it re-affirms the value of writing down our thoughts and sentiments to those we truly care about, whether a mother, father or even a dear friend or acquaintance. We truly can’t buy back the years!
For an article focused on celebrating moms, I could cover the history of Mother’s Day with Anna Jarvis in 1908 with it becoming an official U.S. holiday in 1914, but that information is readily available. So, I decided to focus on the practical aspects and emotion of the day and what it has meant to me as a mom, and now a mother-in-law and grandmother. I also wanted to encourage giving gifts of time or gifts of sentiments to those who have played a mother figure in our lives as they will far outlast most physical gifts.
I encourage you to write your own missive to someone you care about. I’ve provided my letter as a free download and you are welcome to glean any ideas you may feel appropriate. After reading the letter I’ve included some ideas for special gifts that will hopefully spark your imagination. Full article here: https://goalsforyourlife.com/celebrating-moms
