Be Authentically Fabulous

I share about the benefits of living in a 200 sq. ft. travel trailer and tips on living a minimalistic lifestyle.

Do you let overwhelm or fear stop you from taking action? That is where I have been for a while now, but it's time to get my mojo back and get busy in the new year. 

That's a wrap on Season 1.  I will be taking a break over the summer and return in September.

I am so grateful for all of my guests and for the listeners... THANK YOU so much! 

I would truly appreciate any feedback, reviews and ratings.

Interview with Joy Angel.

Joy Angel lives in Arlington, Texas and enjoys a fulfilling career as a Software Engineer at Texas Health Resources.  After an earlier marriage ended in divorce, she married the love of her life in 2015. They desired a family, but with her past pregnancy challenges, she knew it wasn't possible to carry her own children. 

With prayers and family support, Joy and her husband decided to become foster parents, with hopes of one day adopting. Fast forward 6 years and they have a 5 year old son and a 17 month old daughter. Both were adopted and as they like to say "We've got papers on you now." 

There were many times they thought they could not continue fostering, as the children came into their home and left, sometimes with only a day's notice.  Joy states that fostering has been rewarding & fun, with lots of tears and laughter. She believes that it’s the most paramount and meaningful thing she has ever done.

Interview with Jonathan Wells.

Raised in the hill country of Texas, Jonathan has now planted his feet in the heart of Texas, Austin. He is a self-proclaimed cowboy, but has ventured out in travels to become well diversified in the workplace. This has led him to various backgrounds such as corporate operations management and training, motivational speaking, and three of his own businesses. These have increased his ability to effectively communicate with people from all walks of life. 

Jonathan began his path to recovery in 2011. Through the guidance of his higher power, sponsor, family and fellow members of the recovery community, Jonathan understands the value of helping others and the importance of becoming an advocate for positive change in the Austin Recovery Community. 

In this amazing interview, Jonathan discusses his journey of coming out to his family, his intense fight through years of addiction and multiple traumas, and ultimately finding his community.
