  • My Prayer 10.14.24
    Working on many things I want to share on my podcast...and continually interrupted by my upset over what's happening in our world. I am uploading the least in the history of my podcast, while feeling the most. I have not walked away...its actually the contrary. Im also working on getting a sleep story (or a few) for those I love also struggling through this. Bless you, if you are too. Today, this is my prayer.

  • Are You Human?

    I spend so much time questioning the lack of humanity I see, and feeling desperate to find the humans. Could we all be different alien species, or is being human more like a decision?I know this is a short one, but its a great question to ask.Shout-out to the band The Killers for helping me make a point. And to my beautiful friend Carla for dancing on the beach at sunset; providing me the perfect shot.


    I chose this image because it was an evening one of my best friends and her daughters were dancing on the beach of Utah Lake to music and a sunset. If an alien asked "What is it like to be a human?" this would be a good photo to share.

  • 14 Days & 40 Years
    I finished a book I've been working on for for a very long time, and the best way to tell you about it is to share the back cover, the Preface, and the Prologue.
    I hope this sounds like a book worth reading.

  • 1+1=2
    Everything in life is an equation with a sum. It depends on what sum you are looking at, that tells you what it took to get there. I'm in a position of currently needing to think differently because not thinking and just expecting an outcome was a bad experience. 
    I'm seeing that intention, and caring is the way to achieve so many things in life, and when you pay attention to the 1 AND the 1, it's then that you benefit from the 2. This episode is concentrating on both of those 1's, not just the 2.
    I sound like I'm being cryptic, no, it's just that you need to listen in order for me to effectively explain :)

  • The Glee of Liking Me (my book)
    I've been working on a book for many years about self esteem, self respect, confidence, and self awareness. It's finally finished and available. This is a short episode reading the back of the book, and the preface. I hope it sounds worth your time.

  • Dear YES Theory (on Paradox)

    In the recent past I started watching YT on my TV. Without being logged in-YT suggested a chanel that I started watching, and now have watched more than any other chanel EVER on that platform.Its called YES Theory. Their motto is Love Over Fear, and they fund their chanel with a clothing line that is also a motto of theirs: "Seek "Discomfort". (Its also a second YT chanel for them.)If you've listened to me before, you probably know I'm keen on COMFORT, not its antithesis.I was drawn in by the name Yes Theory, and find their origin story beautiful, as well as their willingness to share many stories of their lives. Maybe I'm just late to the party, and you already know Ammar, Thomas, Matt, Steffan, Tommy, and the gang. But if you don't already know them, listen to this letter to them about PARADOX, and then check them out.They are giving me reasons to push my boundaries on discomfort, and they are leading by example.


    I chose this image because it keeps snowing and freezing as plants are trying to survive.

  • The Age of Heroes
    I didn't have heroes when I was young. In fact, I didn't look up to anyone with eyes of adoration. I'm not sure why that was, but the older I am the more heroes I have, and lately I feel like the heroes are too many to count. I have social media to thank for it because most of my heroes are everyday people sharing the world around them. Which has also made me notice how little my opinion is for so many "famous" people. I wonder if this flip-flop of opinion I'm experiencing because of social media -is happening to others also?

  • Nat Chats With Andrea on Decluttering
    My friend Andrea the Glow Guide recently said to me "I'm going to share ebooks about the things I've been feeling so passionate about lately". Then barely a week later she asked me to look at her first draft of her decluttering guide for spiritual growth. Andrea is a go-get-er and I can't say that about many people I know. She is full of ideas, inspiration, creation, and goodness. And her execution is also unlike anyone I know. She understands beauty, communication, and speed like a PRO.
    Her decluttering guide is packed full of gems, and so easy to follow. It can be found at: 
    https://stan.store/andreatheglowguide/p/decluttering-for-spiritual-growth
    Her instagram presence is @andreatheglowguide and @flamingofriday 
    The guided meditation that comes with the ebook is wonderful too!
    You will love everything she does!!

  • Part 9 on Anger -series end
    I never knew asking friends for input could be so valuable. I've learned that sometimes its the smallest thing that someone says that ends up tipping the scales. Man, I love my friends.
    I've had to analyze my childhood a bit further to get this one, but I've learned something huge. 
    I also had a hard time explaining this one because its cyclical. Its true that my own conditioning puts me in a place where its kind of like I make myself angry...because I'm trained not to speak my truth. And not speaking my truth breeds anger.
    I've learned that feeling anger, and not allowing healthy anger, means it stays inside you. 
    That's quite simplified, but this episode isn't a long one even with the clarity and the attempt to share this new lesson.
    I will be moving on to my Joy series, and I'm looking for people who would like to answer some questions on Joy. Email me on [email protected] if you would like to share.

  • Your "MO"

    Many people don't seem to know they can choose who they are. And that includes choosing to be someone you like! Don't be one of those people who can't see the person they are presenting to the world. What is your "MO"? And if you don't know, now is the time to decide.I have to give credit to Nicotine Dolls for helping me make a point so easily...its like the song "What Makes You Sad" arrived in my life just to help me explain. *kiss kiss*


    I chose this image because it represents ONE and ONE's ability to glow.
