Byte Sized Blessings | Paranormal Stories, Divine Encounters & Magical Happenings!

Greetings all and welcome to your weekend episode, albeit a bit of a late one! This time I am introducing you to Yehloe Davis, an angel of a human being! His infectious laughter, his sweet sense of humor as well as his commitment to his community and his greater world is nothing short of extraordinary! In this episode he shares about the loss of his home when the White Sox decided to take people's land to build a new stadium as well as how he has created a new life after this tragedy. His grandparents modeled love, they modeled a way of being in the world that was full of faith and conviction as well as showed young Yehloe that love was the only path forward.  Yehloe shares a miracle story later on in the episode that will positively remind you that working together we can achieve astonishing things!

Your bit of beauty this week, amongst a week filled with strange news is this, and it is truly very simple, because between UFO's and the bad news this week something simple and beautiful is just the ticket- in this article the top image, a gorgeous shot of Santa Fe at sunset. Because sometimes being reminded of how lovely and how peaceful this world actually is, is absolutely what is called for!

Welcome to another mid-week miracle episode love nuggets!! Please meet my guest this time, Rebeccah Silence, who is an award-winning author, coach, and media personality as well as mother and resilient and triumphant survivor! In this episode you'll hear how she overcame a childhood fraught with abuse and sorrow, and traveled a road to healing and beauty. There are so many gifts in this episode and in the stories that she tells...but suffice it to say that for me, the discovery and timing, let along HOW it was discovered...around her cancer diagnosis was absolutely gobsmacking! She is light, bright and full of wisdom, and has a fierce sense of humor to boot!

Your bit of beauty this time is Edmonia Lewis, an African American & Native American sculptor and her piece "The Death of Cleopatra."  I recently listented to "Sidedoor" a Smithsonian podcast and the episode detailed Lewis' life, fame and subsequent slide into being forgotten. A powerful and redemptive story of what we humans create in this world and then leave behind (only to be discovered later in an abandoned space), her story resonated deeply with me this week. What are we creating every day, and how will the future find our works? I'll leave you with that thought and cheers to the rest of your week!

Leroy has a story to tell, and many schools to change and MANY kiddos to support-after all, he is a Principal in a school where he models and teaches about resilience, fortitude and kindness. Growing up in Indigenous communities, Leroy is all too aware of the effect of colonization on these peoples...and he is amongst them attempting to be present and be of service! He is a leader, an author and an educator who meets those he works with on their own terms. His miracle story this week (but I mean, who are we kidding, Leroy is ACTUALLY the miracle) is all about noticing the signs and following them and experiencing unexpected and gorgeous outcomes!

Leroy's website is here, and his books, and they are many, are here! Click on the links to learn more about this wonderful person!

John is a world-changer and I don't say that lightly! (he's also a storyteller as you will hear in this delightful episode!) He is bound and determined to leave this world better than he found it, and it is so apparent that he is called to be of service to his fellow human beings! What does an interviewer do with a guest who is a chameleon? Well, you do what I did, and that is sit back and enjoy the ride with him...and his anecdotes and illustrations and funny, so very funny, stories! What a wild and fabulous conversation we had, with John leading the way!

He has been so many things, besides for counselor and firefighter and minister and author...and, and...so check John out here on his website to do a deeper dive on this inspired human! To find his book, RUNNING AS FAST AS I CAN, click here!

Dear ones, it is the weekend after a particularly delicious week, Thanksgiving, and I hope you all had lovely times with family and friends. This is a time for being grateful, for appreciating all that is good in our lives, and giving grace to those that need it! How wonderfully perfect then, that my guest this week, Mamma Mish, is a chef, a feeder of stomachs as well as a satisfier of souls! She not only is doing good works in her community, but she is bringing her delicious recipes to the masses, in the shape of her cookbook which you can check out here! (also, do a deeper dive, I urge you, into just who this force of nature is!) Her miracle is one that seems so simple on the outside, but when you look deeper, you realize just how potent it is!

Thanks to all of you who listen and stay faithful to this little work of mine, and REMEMBER, please do rate and review!

And since this is the season of SHARING, please do pass on this podcast to those you love, or those that might need a pick me up! It'll do their hearts good!

Your bit of beauty is this story from the Dodo about a woman who saves a momma octopus AND HER EGGS from being destroyed by the waves, the beach, a storm, and just LIFE!

Go out and be a difference in the world!!
