"We carry within us the wonders we seek without us."

Thomas Browne

Greetings, cherished Dreamers! Welcome back, and I hope the joys of spring have been filling your days.

"Every adversity, every failure, every heartache carries with it the seed of an equal or greater benefit." Napoleon Hill

Dreamers! I am delighted to see all of you again! I hope you have enjoyed your spring so far. What does it take for you to keep going after enduring trauma when moving seems nearly impossible? What is it called when you somehow find a way to move forward? 

This conversation aims to highlight my guest's growth journey following trauma. This week, I am joined by the courageous podcaster and advocate Brianna Jones. Brianna highlights her journey of Post-trauma growth (PTG), helping others, among many other heart-wrenching yet courageous stories. 

Post-traumatic growth (PTG) is a relatively new concept in psychology that refers to the positive changes and growth that can occur in individuals following a traumatic event or experience. While traumatic events can lead to adverse outcomes such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or depression, PTG suggests that individuals can also experience positive psychological changes as a result of their trauma.

PTG is not simply resilience or bouncing back from a difficult situation. It is a more profound and transformative experience that can lead to a higher level of functioning, greater life satisfaction, and a new perspective on life.

Research suggests that individuals who experience PTG often report several common changes, including:

1. Increased personal strength and resilience: Following a traumatic experience, individuals may feel a sense of strength and resilience that they did not have before. This can lead to greater self-confidence and a more positive outlook on life.
2. Greater appreciation for life: Individuals who experience PTG often report feeling more grateful and appreciative. They may be more mindful of the present moment and savor positive experiences.
3. Improved relationships: Trauma can lead to re-evaluating relationships, resulting in more robust and meaningful connections with others.
4. A new sense of purpose and meaning: Trauma can prompt individuals to re-evaluate their values and goals, leading to a greater sense of purpose and meaning.

It's important to note that PTG does not occur in everyone who experiences trauma. Some individuals may experience adverse psychological effects following a traumatic experience, such as PTSD or depression.

Overall, PTG is a promising area of research in psychology that highlights the potential for growth and positive change following traumatic events. Psychologists and mental health professionals can provide more comprehensive and holistic support to individuals who have experienced trauma by focusing on resilience and growth rather than just pathology.

 Having the opportunity to speak with her was a pleasure. In the same way, it is likely to be true for you as you listen to it. 

Taking the time to care for yourself is always worthwhile, as is enjoying life more. So maybe we will see each other again soon?

"The key is in not spending time, but in investing it." – Stephen R. Covey.


There was another great conversation, another episode to prove it took place. Don't you love it when hope is in full bloom? Haha.

Dreamers value their time highly. Since time is our most valuable resource, we must be mindful of how we spend it. We must spend it on activities that bring us joy and help us achieve our dreams. In this conversation, I spoke with someone who lives by that principle in many different ways. In this episode, I am joined by the amazing SakiSakura! By making the most of each moment, she strives to achieve the things that bring her happiness and help her achieve her goals. The example of SakiSakura serves as a shining example of someone who is mindful of their time and has achieved success.

Gaming serves as a healthy outlet for Saki's stress, and she is motivated by the challenge of learning rather than by recognition from others. Additionally, she believes that beauty goes beyond the surface and how to embrace who you are. Additionally, there are many other topics discussed throughout that I am sure you will enjoy!

In Saki's life story, our conversation is just one chapter out of many wonderful ones. Having the opportunity to speak with her was a pleasure. In the same way, it is likely to be true for you as you listen to it. 

Taking the time to care for yourself is always worthwhile, as is enjoying life more. So maybe we will see each other again soon?

“The hardest part of finding my voice was finding the courage to believe my voice could actually make an impact.” - Rosalie Fishon

Greetings dreamers! Once again, it is a pleasure to see you. We are back with another fascinating episodic conversation! 

With spring in full swing (did that rhyme? lol), I'm so ecstatic to bring you another conversation with an extraordinary individual. 

Professional voice actors use their voices to convey emotion and feelings to the listener, making their stories more compelling and exciting.

She's a master storyteller, using her voice to create a vivid and captivating experience for her audience. She has trained extensively in vocal techniques, honing her craft to ensure her stories are heard and remembered. Today's conversation features the graceful Rissa Voices! Through her vocal training, Rissa has mastered storytelling, allowing her to create an immersive and captivating experience for her audience. She has learned how to use her voice to create a vivid and engaging atmosphere that draws her listeners in and keeps them captivated until the end.

 Through her stories, Rissa has found a way to take her pain and turn it into a source of strength and courage. She has become an inspiring example of how to transform their experience into a powerful tool for social change. By sharing her story, she has brought awareness to trauma and victimization and provided hope to those suffering.

Her courage in speaking out about her own experiences has enabled others to come forward and share their stories. It has also helped create a sense of solidarity among those who have experienced similar trauma, giving them the strength to fight back and make real change.

Her story has inspired many, helping to spark a movement of people no longer willing to stay silent. By sharing her experiences, she has helped to create a space for others to tell their stories and feel heard. This has enabled them to come together collectively to seek justice and effect real change.

Indeed, it was a wonderful time!
