Making Your Impact Podcast with Melissa Eick

It's part 2 of Melissa's conversation with friend and brilliant artist, Mandy Markham! They talk about circumstances that can push us into the boldness we need to pursue making our impact. Also the importance of showing up day after day to do the work we’re called to, even when we aren’t sure how it will unfold—something Mandy experienced with building her art business and Melissa experienced when getting involved in anti-human trafficking advocacy. And so much more!

Things get real as Melissa shares her most recent (and exceedingly necessary) self-care adventure weekend in the midst of self-isolation. She shares some takeaways that may help you in your own self-isolation self-care. VERY IMPORTANT & RELEVANT NOTES: (1) She recorded this in her car, sitting next to a lake. (2) Lake Hefner is named for a former mayor of Oklahoma City. (3) Squirrels are, in fact, rodents.
