The Ride of My Life Podcast/Blog

So glad you are here for Season 3 of The Ride of My Life, my Inner Peace Pilgrimage!  

I am now out on the road, back to the interviews, this time, face to face, with some amazing people, sharing their love and gifts, for healing and connection on this planet and raising consciousness.  

We are going to have some fun with this!  

I'll be honest, I had no idea what I was doing with these videos. It was my intention to meet people along this ride and just have a conversation with them about Inner Peace. It will evolve.  This video, I met Bobae and Austin, of Cat N Bae, at an AAPI (Asian American Pacific Islander) Pop Up Vendor Event in Colorado Springs. On the last video I did, Valerie and I talked about going to this event and here we are at the actual location. Bobae and Austin do some really cool things. Their main theme is "Rescue Earth, Cats and people." They are artists who really live their life in helping people and the earth. Bobae is a professional designer, yoga teacher and does Mindful Photography and Austin creates humorous illustrations as a self taught artist. Such a sweet couple. We had a nice time connecting and talking as Bobae painted a pink peace sign on my face! What fun! My little girl was getting to explore again and was having a blast!  

Stepping into my inner peace is creating outer experiences that I never thought I would... well... experience! I so love what is happening and I look forward to what this journey brings, one wing and a prayer at a time as I am guided on my way.

This video is a humdinger! Valerie Montgomery (we did a more formal interview with her on March 30, 2022) and I decided to go to a AAPI (Asian American Pop Up Market). Our intent was to look into a Human Design, Self-Projected Projector (both of us) way of making decisions and parking was the goal. I was in, because I figured it would be fun and yes, I am seriously seeing my fun loving little girl coming out now that I'm here. The music and a view of me at the Garden of the Gods is in here as well. I was just playing around with the video and decided to add those!  

Stepping into my inner peace is creating outer experiences that I never though I would... well... experience! I so love what is happening and I look forward to what this journey brings, one wing and a prayer at a time as I am guided on my way.

This video was the first of this series while I was staying just outside of Charlotte, NC, prepping my car and doing the internal work to release some fears and grief I was going through. On 4/16/2022, I was led to a Cacao Ceremony, led by Jane (the Guide) Ritz. I just have to say that the way she did this ceremony, in such a divine feminine/mothering way was so helpful for me. It was a gentle cleansing on top of the cleansing I was already going through. It really cleared out a lot for me, mentally, emotionally, spiritually and physically. I'll not get into that part! Wink, wink.  In this video we just have a really cool conversation in which I learned more about Jane (and myself) and the amazing work she does. We had a fantastic time and I am so grateful she decided to do this!

I'm Caroline Rena, The Travelling Transformational Coach, Writer and Podcaster!   

Come join me as I meet some amazing people on my journey and share their experiences and mine along with the work they do to guide and help others.   

In this last episode, Sam and I went on an incredible journey through her experiences as a child with trauma and how she experienced music, piano and singing to heal herself. She has an powerful way of teaching that is not of mainstream and also uses her knowledge in Mental Health, Trauma Informed Therapy to help others. Her genius lies in her intuition and her compassion especially with her genius of singing, songwriting and playing the piano. While on the interview, I love what she came up with in describing what she does, "I help you get through all of your crap so you can get to your Soul through music and through playing."

Welcome to The Ride of My Life – Poem Talks!  

After a year of deep diving into healing work and finding out about who I am and who I’ve been in my life, I share the poems I have written over this time that document the journey inside of me. Who am I really? I am Love and this is my Journey.   

I was working through the grief of the new changes in my life and then on 6/17/2021, I began the walk into the depths of my journey and my soul to find out the truth about myself questioning where I would end up. After leaving my relationship/partnership and moving to Central Florida for a couple of months, which ended up being 8 months, it pushed me into the re-birthing process of the truth of who I am. Life doesn't always work out the way we planned and in the time I was there, I confronted my darkness and what I brought to the jobs, relationships and life I had experienced. I learned in order to truly heal, I needed to grieve, forgive myself and others and find the love inside me.   

Little by little over the past couple of weeks, I went from the "real" world, into a retreat in the mountains of North Carolina and then back out into the world, travelling as I go. "Finding myself" more and more at peace in this moment. The poem was written on 8/7/2021, just 4 days after my birthday. Life changes and continues to change. Loving my freedom these days and my connection with friends and family. Loving myself more and more and appreciating life. In this poem, when I wrote it, I was just beginning to discover myself and it wasn't easy. Obviously, the work I have done was powerful because I see myself and my life so differently now.  

The journey continues...

I learned in order to truly heal, I needed to grieve, forgive myself and others and find the love inside me.   

This video is an important step in my healing journey, where today, 4/30/2022, I move into a new phase in my life on New Moon. The ironies, synchronicities, miracles and alchemy in my life is speaking loudly to me. Less than a year ago, when I wrote this poem, I felt in my heart the truth of peace, yet I wasn't feeling much of it... yet. Throughout the last 8 months, I have been in the Chrysalis state, preparing to birth into this new point in my life. I could only sit with what I was going through as I didn't have any other options at that point. Nothing I had tried throughout my life was working for me anymore and I knew it was time. Here I am, starting my Inner Peace Pilgrimage on this day, with knowing, more than ever, what that peace feels like. I can tell you this... chaos may be exciting so peace appears to be boring, yet it is complete bliss.   

The journey continues...
