018—So be honest, do you have thoughts running through your mind of all the things you should do and chastise yourself for not being better? Do you see what others are doing and get frustrated with yourself when things don’t come to you as easily?

In this episode, Mary gives us a way to think about all of this, to understand—without judgment or criticism—what is really going on and implores us to show ourselves the kindness and compassion we so freely give to others, but seldom offer ourselves.

A balm for the soul!

015—Sometimes, with everything that is going on, it’s hard to remember that we are all connected. Sometimes it doesn’t feel like it.  Sometimes, we can forget. 

The law of “cause and effect” is immutable; we live amidst this law every day, and in every moment. Sometimes this law manifests more obviously, but the ones that are less apparent are often the most powerful. 

Listen to Mary as she shares how our thoughts, our words and our actions—what we put out in the world—affect those around us, in profound and often unexpected ways, and invites a guest who shares how her 11-year-old son reminded her of this truth.

A thought-provoking and uplifting episode.

013—Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you know what you want and what you need to do, but you struggle to do it? It can be stuck in a job you don't enjoy, but you stay anyway. It can be finding yourself in a relationship you know you shouldn't be in, but you don't make a change. It can be majoring in something in college because it's what you think your parents want you to do, rather than pursuing what you truly love. It's pretending to be someone you think society wants you to be, but you know it's not who you really are.

Honoring and being who you truly are is the only path to peace.

Listen to this episode. There's a message in it for everyone.

012—Our minds are so busy, evaluating, deciding, planning, worrying. A busy mind can make it really hard to notice all the good that is right in front of you… and most of all, to hear that inner voice that is always there to serve you, that is there to guide you to your true self.

Listen as Mary shares how she quieted her busy mind, and how it led to an unfolding of a new path, a recognition of purpose, and life. And how anyone can do it.

010—Sometimes we can be so devoted to others, their happiness and well-being, we can lose ourselves.

In this episode, Mary invites Karen Gallucci, a mom turned Reiki Master and Holistic Health Coach, to share her story—a woman so committed to giving her daughters the childhood she never had, she lost herself in the process. Listen as Karen unabashedly shares how she disappeared and then found herself again, a beautiful example of how our life experiences shape who we are and position us uniquely to help others.
