    Desperate for Freedom: The Ultimate Sacrifice. The Ultimate Privilege.

    Desperate for Freedom: The Ultimate Sacrifice. The Ultimate Privilege.

    As we commemorate and remember all those who paid the ultimate sacrifice on this Memorial Day, let's also consider those outside our country who are so desperate for Freedom, they too are willing to pay the ultimate sacrifice for them and their families. As Americans, we have the ultimate privilege of not experiencing the same desperation for freedom as some from other countries. But freedom is freedom. Could I convince you to listen all the way to the end and take a moment to consider these questions?

    NERVES: A Mother's Day Perspective

    NERVES: A Mother's Day Perspective

    Mother's Day is one of those days filled with power and the potential for joy and celebration as well as pain, sadness, regret and longing.  As women, we are all somewhere on the motherhood spectrum...we have mothers, some of us are biological, step or god mothers to children, some of us care for and nurture four-legged fur balls, and some of us nurture and mother our friends or co-workers.

    I don't know much or even close to everything I should, but I do know this: your motherhood status, whatever it may be or whatever state it is in, is NOT the only thing that defines you. You, Me, We, are so much more than that!

    So,  regardless of the choices we've made or where we're at in our journey, let's take this Mother's Day to support, encourage and be kind to each other. Happy Mother's Day.

    Season 1 episode 22 also has another take on Mother's Day. Take a listen if you missed it.

    Keep It Real: A Woman Looks At 80

    Keep It Real: A Woman Looks At 80

    As we age, we tend to focus on how our body and appearance is changing with a negative perspective, forgetting all that our bodies have done for us throughout our lives. What if we could change that narrative and remember all the work, all the pleasures, all that we have survived? What if we could realize that no matter what we look like on the outside, the same spirit that got us this far, is still there? 
    In this episode I talk to my mom who is turning 80 on May 7th and have her read one of my essays, When I Look in the Mirror at 80. She is cool, calm and collected as she approaches another year of life. I hope she inspires you as she has me all these years.

    Epilogue 2.0: How is Bobby after Chasing the Merry-Go-Round?

    Epilogue 2.0: How is Bobby after Chasing the Merry-Go-Round?

    One of the major themes of Chasing the Merry-Go-Round was the idea of home and Bobby's lifelong dream to own his own place. Unfortunately, for so many years, we all thought it was going to be out of reach for him. Until now. Sometimes things happen that you never saw coming and it creates opportunity and answers that you asked for so long ago you forgot you ever asked.  When I first published this story, Bobby asked me to buy him his own house if and when the book "went platinum." Of course, I always agreed that yes, we'd get him his own house if that ever happened. Well...book sales are a difficult thing and alas this little story never "went platinum." But that's okay...I know the people who need the story and the lessons in it will find it, and Bobby found his home another way.

    Never give up.

    If Wishes Were Eagles

    If Wishes Were Eagles

    Inspired by the Scottish proverb and nursery rhyme, “If wishes were horses, beggars would ride,” If Wishes Were Eagles is a daydream brought to life with lyrical and vivid words. My intention is for it to be a picture book illustrated by the one and only Craig Anderson, artist and husband of mine.
     If Wishes Were Eagles is filled with timeless messages and lessons of hope and possibility. The reader/listener enters a wondrous world full of beauty, marvel and mysteries, and learns that when you’re in trouble, you fly high, and when you’re lonely, you reach out, when you’re sad, you look for splendor in nature around you. Finally, the ones you call family are your haven of rest, and love is what holds us together until the end. This is a wise, wistful tale and you can’t help but smile when you hear it.  Let me know what you think!

Brave conversations

Kelly has the ability to share vulnerable, honest moments of herself with us listeners. She feels relatable like a friend you have over for dinner and discuss all of life’s ups and downs. I can’t wait to see what season 2 will bring! Her bravery to have hard conversations is an inspiration.
