  • Ep 94: Grace through Grief with Alexandra Hope Craig

    This was such a special conversation. Alexandra has a beautiful story and I know so many will find healing through it. I'm thankful for people like this who open up their hurt and heart to the world.

    As a widow and single mother, Alexandra Hope Craig understands the pain of loss and the struggle to find hope in the midst of heartache. She knows firsthand the devastating impact of a terminal cancer diagnosis and the difficulty of navigating grief while rebuilding a life and raising a young child.
    But through her journey, she and her family experienced the goodness and faithfulness of God in a profound way. Now, she is dedicated to sharing that message of hope and healing. In particular, she encourages others to trust their grief and heartache in God's hands with the knowledge that He is faithful to trade beauty for ashes.

  • Ep 93: The Power of PAUSE - How do you know it's time?

    In this episode we're going dig into the physical and emotional cues that we are in need of a PAUSE. It's one thing to apply the tool of PAUSing, but it's a completely different beast to know WHEN. We are all made different. We have different backgrounds, triggers, bandwidth. So, let's chat about knowing ourselves and our personal signs that we need to pump the breaks and reset. Hope this episode serves you!

    Ever feel like it’s all happening too fast, t list is getting too long and you have no control? Does your chest get tight and your mind start to swirl? Do you ever feel overwhelmed by overwhelm? Then this is for you. I developed a process over the past several years, that has proven to work for me time and time again. I’m going to say every time as a matter of fact. God gave me a vision this year of sharing the method with others in hopes of helping someone find some peace and relief in moments of chaos. This will be a series on the Power of PAUSE. I hope you take the ride with us.

  • Ep 89: Becoming the Market Maven with Sarah Dylan Jensen
    This one was a long time coming and worth the wait! Whether you're a fan of farmers markets or a fan of seeing people "do it scared", this episode is for you. I loved this chat with Sarah. She shares the path one step in front of the other has taken her on and how she has surprised even herself in the process. As she says in episode, "It's better to start somewhere than go nowhere." Mic drop!
    Sarah studied Fashion Design at the Fashion Institute for Design & Merchandising in Southern California. She immediately jumped into the design industry at Eddie Bauer followed by Tommy Bahama, Zumiez, Kische and Brooks Sports. After 10+ years in the industry, she decided it was time to move towards smaller, more localized focus.
    Sarah created her original business, Mockingjay Press, with the dream of bringing desire back to small-town shopping. In this social media business, she helps bring awareness and insight to supporting small, local shops & businesses. Through curated connections in the community, she became the Snohomish Farmers Market Manager in 2015. As market manager, Sarah curates an engaging vendor mix working with local artisans, creators and farmers. Sarah handles the social media & graphic advertising for her (now 3) farmers markets, along with her growing client list in & around the greater Snohomish area.
    Sarah is transitioning into world domination by way of Farmers Markets now as she steps into a more over-arching role and is excited to launch Market Maven this year. I'm here for it!
    Oh, and Snohomish Farmers Market opens May 4th as this episode airs. Head on over between 3 and 7pm!

  • Ep 87: You're not Broken with Dr. Rachel Jalanivich ~ Part 2
    We're back! This is the wrap up of my most vulnerable episode(s) yet. When we last left the conversation, Rachel asked me what I found to work the best for my conditions. And so the rest of this episode is all about solutions. She has some show and tell and special tips for not just me, but for anyone in need of the help.
    To see the full interview on YouTube (with visuals she shares) click here
    Also, Rachel, shares with us a code for some of her favorite products by Intimate Rose - code linked here
    This is the book Rachel mentions in what she's currently reading - The 6 Types of Working Genius
    I've made my appointment with Rachel. Have you?
    Ever grateful for her encouragement and genuine spirit. She's helped me see that I still have work to do and I'm here for it.
    Reminder Ep 86 is the first part to this. Go back and start there if you haven't already!

  • Ep 86: I'm not Broken with Dr. Rachel Jalanivich ~ Part 1
    You know how I'm always encouraging to "do it scared."? Well, here I am doing it scared. This episode is about 24 years in the making. It's personal and vulnerable and still a work in process, but I'm feeling called to share my story. Not for me, but for His glory. Not for me, but for that woman that needs to hear it. Not for me, but for the sake of those who don't have any idea what to do next.
    In this episode, we will talk all things pelvic health. I have specific conditions that we spend time digging in to, but we spend a great deal of time talking about women's health and pelvic health as a whole. I couldn't have picked a better person to talk it out with. If you've ever wanted to peel back the curtain on what goes on when you spend time with a doctor talking about these very personal issues, this episode is for you. This conversation is everything I dreamt it would be...and more!
    Dr. Rachel Jalanivich is approachable, down to earth, and makes you feel safe to talk about things we wouldn't normally feel comfortable talking about. This is my longest interview ever and, honestly, we could have kept going. She is amazing! Because of the length, we are splitting it into 2 parts. This first episode is sharing both of our stories that led us to this chat. The second episode is all about solutions offered and ideas for a patient to start their journey.
    Rachel and I are here to tell you. You're not alone. You're not broken.
    The best decision I ever made in regard to my journey with this is to open up to a safe person all those years ago. It was just the beginning. My prayer is that today is the beginning for someone else. This episode is dedicated to those who have held my hand along this path. My husband, my mother, my dearest friends. You've seen me through this and continue to pray for us. I stand here today stronger than ever and empowered to continue moving forward. God is good!

Hi, Salina here. My heart is to help busy people go from feeling overwhelmed to finding true, deep down JOY. Some days we nail it and some days we’re not exactly sure what just happened but we are…
