MARCH – A Mindful Meditation for Renewal
As we start a brand-new month, March, join Arlene in one of her heartfelt prayer meditations for peace to affect all areas of our lives.
March has often been heralded as the month of shedding winter and old behavior. It is a month for Spring, new growth, and new beginnings.
What would you like to birth as we head into the third month of 2026?
Keep your intentions clear. What seeds are you willing to plant now?
In Japanese folklore, this is the year of the Fire Horse, which started February 17, where energy has certainly ramped up, and whatever it is you decide on, things will most likely speed up, almost explosive in action now. Hold your intentions for a peaceful planet and to quiet all the noise around and within you.

Five neurologists told author Sandi Gold in 1986 that she had less than a year to live. Years later, two doctors insisted she get a mastectomy. By then, she’d learned to trust her body’s wisdom. After every cell screamed “No!” she declined. Just five months later, using a natural treatment, she was
cancer-free.
In her book I Chose Love: How to Thrive After a Life-Threatening Illness Using Love to Guide You, Sandi wants her readers to know how to use the power within their bodies that we were all born with – to obtain better health and happiness. She doesn’t want her readers to do what she did; she wants them to follow their own hearts and know they have options.
Join Joanne and Arlene for an amazing interview with this Earth Angel who defied all odds and is thriving today, helping others realize that we are far more powerful than we think.

What if beginning again didn’t require pushing, fixing, or reinventing yourself? ✨
In this heartfelt episode of Beacons of Balance, Chrystal “FireHeart” Kubis joins Joanne and Arlene for a warm, soulful conversation about finding your way forward through self-trust, kindness, and inner steadiness 🌿
Together, they explore why so many people feel pressure at the start of a new year—and how real change unfolds not through force or perfection, but through listening, compassion, and embodied self-leadership.
Drawing from nearly two decades of guiding women through life transitions and identity shifts, Chrystal shares insights on moving forward without self-abandonment, even when everything looks “fine” on the outside.
✨ The episode also includes a short channeled message, touching on the supportive presence of angels and higher guidance during times of transition—an invitation to soften inner pressure, feel supported, trust what’s unfolding, and take steady, truthful steps forward.
🌙 In this conversation, you’ll hear about:
• Why resolutions often fall short—and what supports lasting change
• How kindness and self-compassion bring clarity
• What it means to be in a life or identity transition
• How to stop overriding yourself and lead from inner authority
• A channeled message on beginning the year with steadiness, trust, and angelic support This conversation is for anyone feeling reflective, tender, or quietly ready for what’s next—held, guided, and without pressure 💛✨
✨ Meet Our Guest

Rev. Simon Caudullo, a cherished returning guest, joins Joanne and Arlene for a heartfelt conversation about his abilities as a spiritual medium to connect with deceased loved ones. He shares how these loved ones are always present in our lives and blesses us with a message for 2026. Once a
Catholic Benedictine monk, Rev. Caudullo is now a practicing spiritual medium and spiritual teacher, dedicated to helping people connect with those who have passed on. This deeply moving episode emphasizes the reclaiming of your intuition, the honoring of your truth, and the living with spiritual purpose. It serves as a reminder that we all possess the gift of intuition; some individuals actively choose to work with it daily to enhance their abilities. Our loved ones are always near, and we can all connect with them. Ultimately, this discussion beautifully illustrates that love never dies and that our departed friends and relatives exist in a different, higher frequency.

Join Arlene and Joanne on a jam-packed episode with two guests, Rose Lombardo and Lois Krueger, who share their harrowing stories of close encounters with death and how an unseen force saved them. We are never alone in life. Many have had brushes with death or been put on
the path of a stranger where your sixth sense warns you, or perhaps you heard a voice or smelled roses or perfume, and then something happens to put a protective shield around you, saving you from your demise. This is another validation that if it’s not your time, perhaps you have important things to finish up in this lifetime.
