I was sitting down to the mic fearful and feeling all the usual doubts spinning through my mind…

“What if I sound dumb?” 

“I’m not good enough.”

“Maybe this was a bad idea.”

But then it occurred to me, I’ve been saying things like this to myself for years and the only thing staying comfortable led to was feeling stuck! 

Maybe you’re feeling stuck too. 

“I’m not ready. This isn’t a good time. I don’t have time to do this.”

Sound familiar?

I don’t believe the time is really our problem. Let’s break through these limiting beliefs together! 

Grab your favorite mug and a cozy warm drink. Come have a seat at my table today. I have some encouragement for you.

Each episode is like a love letter to your heart, filled with honest stories and gentle encouragement.

Every week, your host, internationally recognized artist, author and teacher, Valerie McKeehan, helps you come home to yourself, who you are made to be, and the beauty you’re meant to bring to the world.
