  1. Grief Awareness Guided Walk

    Grief Awareness Guided Walk

    On Saturday, August 30, 2025 we hosted a remote and live experience on National Grief Awareness Day. We encourage you to explore your local park, neighborhood, or hop on a treadmill and walk for 30 minutes and listen to this guided walk. Thank you to those who joined us in person. Tag us on IG @natarsha_wright in your walk and purposeful pause photos. I'm excited to walk with local listeners and share with our community that they are not alone in their grief and neither are you!  After the walk spend time with the below Purposeful Pause: 1. What are you grieving in this season? 2. How are you embracing joy? 3. What's one step you can take toward healing? What if healing isn't about "getting over it"… but about giving yourself space to feel it? In this special guided episode, I'm inviting you to walk with me—step by step—through a gentle grief awareness practice. Whether you're grieving a person, a relationship, your health, your identity, or simply navigating a season of change, this walk was created with you in mind. Together, we'll: Redefine what grief is—and isn't—so you can release the pressure of "getting it right." Notice how grief shows up not just in our emotions, but in our bodies. Hear my story of what happened when I ignored grief and why I finally had to face it. Pause for reflection with questions to help you name what you're grieving and what you're making room for. This isn't a sad shuffle around the park, your neighborhood, or your treadmill—this is a release. A step toward honoring loss, embracing joy, and creating room for healing. So grab your headphones, head outside, and take this walk with me. You are not alone in this journey. If today's walk resonates with you, share it with a friend, subscribe to the Purpose to Create™ podcast, and join the conversation with our community in our Purpose to Create™ Pod Broadcast Channel on Instagram.

    Simple Joys

    Joy doesn't have to be earned. It doesn't need a perfect moment, permission, or performance. It just needs space. In this episode, I'm reflecting on a recent gathering with friends and how it reminded me to stop delaying joy for the "right" time. From dancing in my living room to crafting mini charcuterie boards, I'm sharing the small, soulful things that bring me joy—and how I'm no longer waiting to enjoy them. Whether you've been stuck in overthinking, burnout, or the habit of tying your joy to output, this episode is your reminder that you can create joy right now. Inside this conversation: My favorite everyday joys I'm reclaiming A mindset shift from doing to being A gentle reframe for when joy feels distant A joy assignment you can try this week A real-time reflection to help you notice what's good What simple joys are you putting off until later?

    Joy Without Justification

    What if joy didn't need a reason? In this episode, I'm sharing what happened when I stopped chasing trends, stopped tying my worth to my work, and finally gave myself permission to be—not just do. As a photographer, strategist, content creator, and podcaster, joy used to feel like a reward I had to earn. Now? I've redefined joy as something I no longer perform for—but something I create from. We're talking about what it means to reclaim your joy without guilt, pressure, or permission—and how choosing joy can reconnect you to your purpose, creativity, and freedom. Inside this episode, you'll learn: Why high-achieving creatives often feel disconnected from joy How chasing trends can quietly drain your purpose What it looks like to shift from productivity to presence Why joy is an act of resistance—and a path to creative freedom Where have you been waiting for permission to feel joy? What would it look like to give yourself joy—just because? Press play and let this episode be your reminder: You don't need to earn your joy. You just need to receive it.

    Be Where You Are

    Trying to find your way back to you? This is your reminder that joy begins when you return home to yourself. In this episode, I share real-time reflections from Bali—where I didn't record, perform, or push… I simply rested. What I found in that stillness was powerful: the version of me I'd been chasing was already here. I just needed to be still enough to meet her. This is the official launch of our Summer Soul Guide series—a gentle, joyful journey back to presence, alignment, and soul-led creativity. In this episode, you'll hear: Why I traded performance for presence What Bali taught me about rest, clarity, and coming home to myself How to honor where you are (instead of rushing where you're not) A powerful reflection to help you create your own joy Plus, I'm offering a light and soulful set of Create Your Joy journaling prompts to help you define joy on your own terms—one honest question at a time.

    Bloom Happens

    What if your breakthrough is already happening—just beneath the surface? Blooming isn't always loud—it's often hidden, slow, and sacred. In this soul-centered episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on what it really means to bloom when the process doesn't look pretty—or public.

    What Matters Most?

    What would shift if you stopped asking for permission to be who you already are? In today's short and sweet reflection-driven episode, I'm sharing the one value that guides everything I do—freedom. The freedom to live fully, move boldly, and create without apology.

Even when it would be easier to shrink. You'll hear: Why freedom isn't just a feeling—it's a practice What living in alignment really looks like How to honor your values, even when it's inconvenient A grounding reminder inspired by Beyoncé and our ancestors Whether you're in a season of reclaiming your voice or resetting your values, this episode will meet you right where you are. Tap play and reflect with me.
