  • Gabby Petito ~ Let it be

    My heart is heavy at the time of recording this episode as the news has just announced that the FBI has found the remains believed to be the body of Gabby Petito who has been missing.
    Gabby was described as a beautiful soul, artistic, and free-spirited.  She has a tattoo that says:  "Let it be".

    As a mother of a 28-year-old daughter, I can not even begin to imagine what her family is going through.  I am sharing my thoughts based on the news and videos that I have seen so far.

    I am asking you to listen to this episode and join me in prayer for the family and friends of GABBY PETITO!!
     
    In honor of Gabby Petito...
    Let it be,

  • Self-Healing with Blood Types

    SELF-HEALING is so important in our lives.  Knowing our BLOOD TYPE and how it pertains to our wholeness and well-being is also important in the healing process.  

    One of the most popular episodes so far is "Eat Right for Your Blood Type" inspired by the book of the same name written by Dr. D'Adamo.  So, I decided to create this episode diving deeper into the meaning and importance of our blood types and how eating specifically for our specific blood type can benefit our health and healing.

    I hope that this information will inspire you to implement some of Dr. D'Adamo's suggestions and that you can provide yourself with SELF-HEALING and enjoy the many TREASURES of LIFE!!

    *Disclaimer:  I am not a medical professional.  I share from my own knowledge and experiences.  Please seek advice from your medical professional prior to implementing.

    Peace, Love, and Joy,

  • FREEDOM from the Past

    This episode was inspired by Viktor Frankl's quotes: 

    "When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves."

    "Everything can be taken from a man but one thing:  the last of the human FREEDOMS - to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way."

    "Between stimulus and response, there is a space.  In that space is our power to choose our response.  In our response lies our growth and our FREEDOM."

    I go deeper into my thoughts regarding these quotes and how they can change our lives!

    I also mention the importance of Self-Forgiveness and that episode is:  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/life-is-a-treasure/id1474535076?i=1000466923426

    I hope you will find the TREASURES to help you grow through LIFE'S situations and FREEDOM from the past, for the present, and in the future.   

    Thank you for listening, subscribing, and sharing!

    Peace, Love, and FREEDOM,

  • Forgotten Fathers 2021

    In honor of Father's Day, I wanted to take this time to share how fathers are impacted at times of pregnancy termination or loss.  Fathers have feelings too.  However, too often they are forgotten about because of how society expects them to toughen up, suck it up, and be a "man".  I know personally how difficult the complex emotions can burden men also. 

    The goal of this special episode is to let men know that they are not alone and that there is help and healing available to them also.  The lyrics that I shared from Shelly E. Johnson are linked here:  https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=390005538212511

    Please share this episode with anyone you know who may be silently struggling.  Also, please share with me the name(s) of your unborn babies and how you decided to honor them. 

    Happy Father's Day,
