Looking Back
In this week’s edition of Tranquility du Jour, I do a bit of looking back and take you along on the journey. Sharing a play by play of 2023's unfolding (full "Year in Review" still to come), reflection on a comment about how "we've grown up together," and a preview of what's coming in 2024 (hello, Substack, a reimagined Coterie, a Year of Tranquility digital course).
Plus a reminder to acknowledge and be gentle with yourself when things are hard and a story about how "Memaw" got lost on an Amtrak train to NYC.
Grab your journal, a cuppa tea, and settle in for this heartfelt musing.

Customer Reviews
A longtime favorite, worth a listen!
This was the podcast that introduced me to podcasts, ever since I moved to DC in 2005 and met Kimberly at her former yoga studio. I now live across the ocean but this podcast and Kimberly’s other offerings have been a consistent source of inspiration, her guests are unique and her solo episodes offer great perspective on goal-setting, making space for creativity, and much more. Self-help is such a loaded and overused phrase these days but this podcast is truly the correct sense of the term, a warm hug and a challenge for listeners to live a full and meaningful life. Thanks as always!
Please, do your homework
I do enjoy tuning into this podcast occasionally. The host seems like a lovely person who enjoys opera, ballet, and wellness. I would implore her, however, to take just a minute to verify important pronunciations before she broadcasts them all over her podcast. I was appalled to hear her repeatedly pronounce the name of Puccini's magnificent opera LA BOHÈME as "La Boheem". Mon dieu, quelle horreur! To be clear, I do not expect this woman to be fluent in French, Italian, or any other language. But when she is talking about an extremely well-known opera, she should take the time to check her pronunciation from a reputable source – not one of those ridiculous robot -generated pronunciation things on the internet which are often wrong. Before the pandemic I was recording a book which had many phrases and locations in French (which I speak) , but also a lot of German locations and phrases. I only have a cursory knowledge of German, but believe me I would check in multiple sources until I was confident that I was correctly pronouncing things. A person does that for their listeners and also for themselves.
Tranquility du jour tous les jours
I've been in love with this podcast ever since I discovered it. I have a minimum one-hour commute to and from school/work four to five days each week and was searching for a podcast to listen to to pass the time, and this is the first that drew me in. Kimberly covers wonderful topics in her interviews with wonderful people, and I feel like you really come to know about her and the things she's passionate about, and why, like animal welfare, yoga, and tranquility in everyday life, which I think we could all use a lot more of. Thank you, Kimberly, for shining your light in this world. Already looking forward to the next episode. 💕
2022 UPDATE: It’s been about five years since I discovered TDJ and while, in the spirit of honesty, I have not been a diligent follower all that time, I’ve recently returned to Kimberly Wilson’s world and discovered how much I missed being a part of it. This is the only podcast I ever listen to and it will forever be my favorite. It offers wonderful resources on a range of topics including mindfulness, creativity, creating space for yourself and for what’s important to you, and just like she says at the beginning of each episode, living a full and meaningful life. I’ve learned that listening to Tranquility du Jour and subscribing to her Love Notes newsletter absolutely makes my life fuller and more meaningful. Love.
