Beautiful Second Act

What if I told you that you could have a Bucket List experience? I'm talking 5 magical days immersed in the energies of whales and/or dolphins. You can experience an intimate and transformational connection with these special beings.

Anne Gordon leads her guests to  connect with the wondrous spirits of whales and dolphins, that are profoundly moving, deeply healing, and life-altering for many people. But there is a lot to this story.

On today's episode of Beautiful Second Act, we talk with animal advocate, and wild and domestic animal trainer, Anne Gordon. She has a remarkable story about leaving her life behind in America to live with the Embera tribe of Panama, for several years. How she lost all her money and gained a life of her dreams.

Is it possible to have too much of something? Ever hear of the old saying, too much of a good thing?  We humans often cram our lives with too much of everything. This can weigh us down and eventually complicate our lives where it's totally unnecessary. 

Too much activity, too much food, too many choices... these are just a few examples of how having too much can not be a good thing.

In today's episode, I talk about how we can know when enough is enough. In Dr. Wayne Dyer's book, Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Life; Living the Wisdom of the Tao, he deciphers for us the verses of the Tao Te Ching. The 9th Verse made me think of how we must realize more isn't necessarily better.

Since 2015 I've been traveling a couple times a year on my own. It started out as time for me to write uninterrupted. But I wondered if I could really justify my going.  At first it felt too indulgent to have so much time to myself. Then I realized I got far more out of the traveling alone than just the writing.

In this episode I talk about my 5 Reasons I believe everyone should experience traveling alone. Now that I've done it so many times, I cannot go without this sacred time alone.

Have you ever felt like there should be more to life than this? Did you imagine life would be more glamorous, or more exciting than it is?

Today's episode is all about when I hit a wall in my early 30's, did a lot of soul searching and spiritual work on myself, only to be confronted once again with the same question in my late 40's of Is This Really All There Is?

Now at 54, I believe the answers in life are far more simple than we usually think. In fact, in midlife and beyond, I truly believe we have the answers, but it's up to us to listen to the small, still voice inside. The sooner we heed this voice's counsel, the faster we can find our way to our true path.

There are many seasons to a life and what suited us in our former years is bound to change as we grow older. It is necessary to keep pivoting. I hope this episode helps you do just that.
