Picking Daisies

What does it mean to feel alive? For mothers especially, putting ourselves last on the list has put us asleep. We've forgotten about the things that fuel us and that define us outside of just a title. Join host, Mary Hendricks, as she sits with Mother of 4, Author, Social Media Influencer, Public Speaker, Entrepreneur, Marcella Hill.  Hear how Marcella, through her own life experiences, learned to sit still and listen and "wake up."  No  yoga retreat to Costa Rica. She didn’t spend a year as a Buddhist Monk. There was no month-long trip to Paris to paint and eat croissants. There was just her asking myself questions and paying attention to the answers.  Learn how Marcella found her true self in her regular everyday life and see how you can too!

Marcella Hill is the Mother of 4 kids living in 3 different homes. Having a blended family had challenged her beliefs of what a good mother and good family are. As an author, entrepreneur and public speaker she shares her journey of awakening to a world where she exists even when the world breaks.
