If you or someone you know is in a domestic violence situation, call 800-799-SAFE. An easy way to remember is if there are 800 abusers and you remove 799 of them, you will be safer.

I don't have a lot for you today...

Today's episode starts with a rant about the lack of communication and wondering if I ask for too much.

A call with a coach later convinced me to go ahead and move forward with publishing this podcast instead of waiting for life to be perfect.

I also talk about my own issues in the bedroom and why I might have those challenges.

Sharing the song "Music Of My Heart" from *NSync & Gloria Estafan with my partner and thanking them for the love we share that gives me the freedom to sing to them.

I share a post from @upworthy on Instagram about how crying is good for the soul because it saves lives. So cry so you can save lives later.

I share the song 'Part Of Your World' from "The Little Mermaid" with you. The song makes me emotional and leads to me talking about how my journey started with loving my feet.

I end by telling you what I did today which honestly wasn't a whole lot and it was nice to have a relaxing day. And a little treat in my day from Hasta La Pasta in Katy, Texas for their chocolate gelato as well as a visit to one of my favorite chain restaurants, PokeWorks. I end by sharing about a purchase from TJ Maxx from Sand & Fog as well as giving my partner a suggestion to talk to me when he sleeps.

I share a clip from the show "Modern Family" and how it relates to our life and our relationship.

Later I share about watching the movie "Hope Floats" and how it inspired me to share the song "Make You Feel My Love" as sung by Garth Brooks. I talk through depression and finding the thing that sparks my joy.

I also share about the restaurant 'Thai Stellar' out in Pearland, Texas.

I share a post from @upworthy on Instagram about strangers traveling together. I share about the disappointment of giving my son up for adoption.

I came across a post on Instagram @juddlienhard and share my thoughts on it which leads to me singing "Shallow" from 'A Star Is Born.' Love gave me the freedom to sing and it is sooo very freeing.

Later I share the reminder how important it is to have conversations before they get bad. When things get bad, they can head towards uncertainty. From talking through my thoughts, I decide to continue to send you messages.

Restaurants I named: Little Matt's and House of Pies both located in Houston, Texas.

The sound quality on this recording for the 1st 24 seconds is quiet, and I couldn't figure out how to make it louder. It goes back to normal and then gets quiet again. After those 2 sound issues, the sound goes back to normal. If you know how to fix it, let me know.

EDIT: On 9/24/24 I figured out how to fix it. Yay me :)

Later I share a story from Instagram about treating your kids the way they would treat you the way if you were the one that is upset.
