My cousin, Jason Wendroff-Rawnicki, shares about the correlation with grief and wellness. Two words we don't necessarily connect, but we discuss ways to implement them in the different stages of the grief process.
Both Jason and I lost our sisters and we look at our own personal journeys and what we did, didn't do and learned through our own journeys.
Jason offers an on-line support group for siblings who have experienced loss and is a tremendous network of hearts that can provide support, encouragement and allow the journey to feel less alone.

Challenges and obstacles are an inevitable part of life.
We take the time to prepare for natural disasters, so how much more critical is it to learn how to prep ourselves to be in a good place & practice self-care
to ensure for a healthier reaction to the tough stuff we face in life?
There is relevance in taking time to fill our tank and to also incorporate providing kernels of encouragement to those around us who can benefit from a positive text, call, email or card. There's power in positive!

The relevance and significance of valuing the elderly within our families and society is massive. We can choose to be dismissive of those of older generations or we can value and learn from them. The choice is ours.

In a society laden with messages glorifying youth and all things young there's a blaring message that older is less valuable and significant. When we give value and credence to those who are part of our past and present it empowers all of us.

Meir Kay was a catalyst for myself in taking the step to begin
Goodness Chick's Podcast. Meir has been called the viral
ambassador of joy making videos and vlogs on the power
of kindness, goodness and giving back.
We talk about the necessity of giving of ourselves, stepping
out of our comfort zone and letting go of control to allow
life to happen as it were intended (not necessarily as we
intended).
Kindness has a fluid ripple effect that can evoke joy and change
lives. Rocking out a mindset of giving back and spreading kindness
will 100% change your life.
