The Apprenticeship Diaries

Just checking in this week Listeners. I've been a hot mess lately and it's mostly because my routine (if ever there was one) has utterly, been shattered. Listen in if you need your "Amy" fix. I have some insights that might interest you as well as some beautiful sound bites from the chicken farm.

As always, this show has endless gratitude for your time and attention.

We go from "Juggling" to "Dropping Balls" and it took 2 solid, very long, fettered, weeks, to know what to pick up again. 

Listen in to see what these last 2 weeks have been about and what they have to yield for us all. 

Thank you always Listeners. Have a very blessed week!

"Just" sharing some feels and insights as I (Amy) keep walking this fettered landscape of "hurled opinions"; Trying desperately, to manage (juggle) all that I feel important, as I attempt to gracefully, walk with God. 

Bless you for your time in listening. My hopes are, as always, that this Diary Entry serves beyond my own, personal, needs.

This week, I have the pleasure to catch up with a friend of mine, David Dull and share all that he's been doing with all of you Listeners. 

David is a Liberty Movement Activist and we hope you'll tune in to hear more about what that means. 

Thank you so much for donating your time, attention and insights to this show David. We are so grateful and on a personal note: Thank you for being a friend.

God bless and may freedom ring!

This one is short and sweet as Rico and I have a day of wood carving to attend to. We might even play with some bone too. Look out for videos and pictures of our creations.

We hope you enjoy this Diary Entry and that it helps feed your passions for the future. 

God Bless you Listeners and Happy Tuesday!

This should have been all about Mike Fisher Dubois, but in typical  "Amy" fashion, I talked too much about myself. 

If you're reading this, just go over and follow Mike in all ways you can: The Tattooed Mind Podcast, look at Mike's work place, West Loop Tattoo Collective and follow Mike any where you find him. 

If you're interested in getting some beautiful black and gray work done by Mike, be sure to email him at [email protected]

Thank you sooooooo much for your grace with me Mike and as always, you beautiful, Diary Listeners.

As June comes to an end, I've (Amy) been feeling many things. I'll not belabor this by telling too much here, but within this show, there is an analysis of the concept of "Pride" and how, as I try to deepen my relationship with God, I'm changing in the way I see, live, work, etc... It's been wild and I hope you enjoy this Entry. 

As always, I love you all; Thank you for listening and God Bless!

First, we hope that everyone had a very happy weekend and a fantastic Father's Day. Poor father's, they rarely get the kind of observance that they are due. Admittedly, this Entry doesn't mention fathers or Father's Day at all, so we hope grace will be given as this show is no better... Sorry to all Dads!

Late as this Entry may be, it's full of the reflections of this past week. "Making Time" was the chosen title but so many could have easily took its place. Listen in to get your weekly dose of Amy and see why you're already on the right path if you make time.

No matter what, this show is grateful for all it gets. Praise God!

Can't save time nor go back in time. If that were possible, this podcast/Diary Entry would have been available to listen to Monday at 9am (That, by the way, is the standard aim for each week's podcast release). Instead, this coming at you a day late. 

Listen in to hear my (Amy's) confession and to hear how this relates to A.I. at all. 

Thank you to our listeners and thanks always to a gracious God.

This isn't the cleanest recording folks, but it's rather similar to finding a groove with how to funnel clients and how to bring someone into the mystical realm of tattooing; How to navigate the initial conversation so that everyone feels assured.

We hope that everyone had a great Memorial Day, however you celebrate. Hopefully this Entry will prime the week ahead and lend some tips to try out. As always, thank you so much for listening to the show.
