I had long hoped to record some of the profound conversations I engage in with my daughter, Salomée. Her wisdom, far beyond her years, has always inspired me, and I waited eagerly for the moment she would be ready to share them in a podcast episode.
Finally, the day came when, separated by an ocean but connected by our shared quest for understanding, Salomée said yes to a recording session. Her willingness to touch on personal challenges and explore her growth was not just courageous but an invaluable display of resilience.
As a medical student, Salomee has delved into the intricacies of the human body. Yet, what sets her apart is her ability to integrate her scientific knowledge with spiritual practices, a harmonious blend of intellect and empathy.
Salomée has been meditating since the age of 16, using this ancient practice as a tool to navigate through difficult mental and emotional times. Her perspective, born from struggle, transcends age and background, echoing a universal connection.
Her spiritual exploration complements her scientific inquiries, giving life to a philosophy that embraces the complexities of the human body and the subtleties of the human spirit. Salomée's journey reflects the human quest for harmony, inner peace, and self-realization. Her vulnerability inspires courage, encourages reflection, and speaks to a universal longing.
Sharing this conversation with my daughter has been a remarkable journey. Witnessing her growth, absorbing her wisdom, and being part of her willingness to expose her vulnerabilities is an experience that transcends the usual bonds of parenthood. Her voice offers wisdom that, I believe, will touch hearts and minds across generations.
Her words stand as a testament to the human spirit's ability to grow, connect, and inspire, even from the darkest corners of our minds.

In the early days of our journey through the Americas, Glen and I stopped in Oregon to meet the Duncans.
Little did we know our time with them and their neighbors would be so rich in stories, and so meaningful!
Mike shared his journey, leaving the safety of the corporate world to build and run his dream business from his garage.
With Kellie, we discussed spirituality and awakening from trauma.
Megan walked us through the creation of her booming business born of a sudden Tiktok popularity!
With Morris, I fulfilled one of my dreams, donning the bee suit and, to the hive!
From her Gotland sheep farm to her life after the loss of a child, the conversation with Stephanie was one of the most profounds of our journey...
To these amazing encounters, I added a reflection about my feelings as I progressed in this healing journey through the Americas.

Dive into the profound impact that a single encounter can have on our lives, as we reveal our heartfelt interview with Greg.
When asked for stories from the road, Greg told us how he saved a man's life who had been stranded in the desert for 4 days. But he also told us how he'd almost passed the man, only realizing the gravity of the situation while pedaling away....
Prepare to be inspired by his insights and simplicity as we explore the importance of human connections, the power of shared experiences, and the beauty of embracing the unexpected on our paths through life.

We hope you enjoy and we look forward to your comments :)
