Shine with Mary Obana

039—Why is it that we can want something so badly but not get it? Why do things come more easily for some than others? Is this a matter of luck or something else?

There IS a reason, and understanding it can change your life. 

The things we want—a more comfortable lifestyle, love, health, connection, peace, financial stability, joy, answers—are ours for the taking IF we create a path—the path of least resistance.

RESISTANCE is what stands in the way of everything we want, and the forms it comes in may surprise you.
  
 Learn what resistance looks like so you can remove the obstacles that stand in the way of everything you want. 

It may be simpler than you think.

038—As we grow and love, we inevitably face those moments when we are confronted with mortality, that of a loved one or our very own. Mary discusses our soul’s journey, what to consider as you or a loved one transitions from this life, the power of connection, and love. Mary also pays tribute to a trailblazer in her community who is in the midst of it all.

037—What do you do when you are confronted with something you don’t like? Maybe it’s an unwanted situation, a decision that you disagree with, shocking news. When every ounce of our mind and body wants to reject it, resist it. Deny it. Fight it. Change it.

In this episode, learn about the power of acceptance—acceptance of the situation, acceptance of ourselves, acceptance of others, what acceptance is, and what it isn’t.

Are you in the midst of something challenging right now?  Take a listen. The path forward always begins with acceptance.

036—How do you feel about change? Do you invite it in or fear it? Either way, it’s difficult to avoid. Change always comes.
 
Listen as Mary discusses why change can feel uncomfortable for so many of us and shares a way to think about it that can "change" everything. Change isn't something to fear; it's a transition to something more.
 
 You might soon be welcoming it with open arms!

035—We all have something special within us, a light we are meant to find and share. But it can be easy to overlook or discount that which is so much a part of us.
 
Listen as Mary re-releases an interview from 2020 with a dear college friend, Mary Dungan Caprio, who shares how her cancer diagnosis and finding her light helped her find the fulfillment she had wanted her whole life: the ability to connect with those she loves without expectation, only to share love, happiness, joy, and laughter.

Mary Caprio lost her fight with cancer just weeks ago. In an updated introduction and closing message, Mary pays tribute to her friend and shares the lessons she left us about love and life.

034—You know that feeling, don't you? When things aren't happening as quickly as you want,  when you are eager to get to that place, wherever or whatever that might be. Then, before you know it, feelings of doubt can creep in. 
 
What are we to do?
 
Listen to Mary as she gives us a whole new way to understand what's going on and what we are to do when we find ourselves there. A time when we are feeling impatient may be an invitation guiding us to something more.

The value of patience.

033—Do you feel guilty or fear the consequences of saying no? Do you squirm at the idea of confrontation? Does the thought of someone disliking you make you anxious? 

When people quiet their voice and compromise their desires to avoid the discomfort of others' disapproval, it can lead to frustration and resentment. You need not live this way.

Listen as Mary covers what people-pleasing is, what it isn’t, and how to work it out of your life so you can make room for YOU.
