  • Fragments: Pieces Of A Puzzle

    If you snatch a mirror from the wall and smash it on the ground...what are you left with?  Some may say that you are left with a mess to clean up, but others might say that it's still a mirror that was smashed into a thousand pieces.

    Well, if we take the perspective of the latter and believe that each one of those shards or fragments could just be a component of a greater construction...could we say the same thing about people?

    In today's pour, we are going to ponder this concept and try to answer this question!

    So, grab your mug and your thinking caps...lol  This is going to be an interesting one =)

  • Never Judge A Book By Its Cover

    How much value do you put into someone's appearance? How much value do you put into your own?  Should a person's worth be calculated in a glance?  Or should a person's worth be measured by their character?  

    In today's pour, we are going to talk about how one's appearance can significantly influence their relationship with the world.  So, grab your cup and Let's G.O!

  • The Old Brick House (A Childhood Memory)

    When you were a child, you may have experienced many periods of what some would call "Hard Times".  It's only when we become older and start living on our own that we can truly look back and appreciate some of those challenges that we faced early in life.

    In today's podcast, I share a few childhood memories that I feel have truly shaped my outlook on the world.  I am thankful for these moments and I encourage you to look back into your own life and find the gems that you may have overlooked, due to the fact that you were too young to fully understand the lesson at that time.  

    Grab a warm cup and let's take a walk back into the past.

  • Someone Has Died!
    Did that title grab your attention? Good😅 Today, we will be keeping with the Halloween spirit and reading yet another chilling story, but this one is definitely more grim and graphic compared to the last one. It is a little gem that I found on Reedsy Prompts that gives upcoming authors a chance to showcase their skills. This reading will be from Mr. Lonnie Russo's bag, "Someone Has Died". Grab a decent cup...it's a solid one \m/ Let's Go!

  • Read With Edge!
    If you've spent enough time listening to quality native speakers, you may have noticed a huge difference in "How they read" versus "How you read". One of the biggest differences is that they read with "Edge". It's not enough to just pronounce words, you have to establish a true connection between what you read and what you convey while reading the text. In today's pour, I'm going to demonstrate 4 different levels of reading that can be observed in a language seeker's journey. If you find that one of the examples is similar to how you read, this is fine because it's not a race to the top. You will get there one day and maybe some of you are already there and just don't know it:) So...Grab Your Cup And Let's G.O!
