A precious time having one of my best friends, Dallas James Pritt, on the podcast the week of his first single's release!! Dallas is a very vulnerable mental health advocate on top of his action-packed career as an actor, choreographer and singer. 
His song, "Somehow (Beautiful to Me)" - composed and written by Joey Contreras - inspires hope while providing a vessel of emotional release and relatability. Dallas made sure that this song would be honest about the pain and insecurities he's faced along the way; and how those wounds became steps guiding him towards breakthroughs of joy and self-acceptance. Cannot wait for you all to enjoy this gift of a pure heart's truest expression through music. 
There's also his short film "A Heart's Calling" that illuminates the experience of queerness in an often close-minded Christian environment. It is available to stream on YouTube.
I am so proud of you Dallas!

What a gift of time & presence with Valerie Jane Parker  💚
Valerie has a tangible exuberance for life! In this episode, she shares that her heightened expressions of joy were found after the deepest valleys of pain. As she puts it, “we don’t always get to choose in life what breaks us down, but we do get to choose how we rebuild.” And I can attest that Valerie is a marvel when it comes to rebuilding and choosing to focus on the good she wants to see, and in response, also creates 🤩🌟✨
Thank you Val for sharing your light with @thisistemporarypodcast 🥹💚

We live in the gray area. In uncertainty. Even though cognitive distortions may try to convince us, or have us trying to convince others, that things are black or white, it's really all shades of gray. This episode was filmed on a darker gray day, but it still was gray. It was a very tough, panic stricken day - but it was not all bad. I still went on a walk with my husband and enjoyed the company of my dog and some saltine crackers and sprite to calm by anxious stomach.  Gray. And temporary, of course.

Happy Mental Health Awareness Month! 
Showing up as you are in the present moment is enough. Your worth transcends any form of measurement. We are enough. In this episode, I share the past 6 months journey with transitioning back to living in the states, navigating panic disorder and anxiety and a newfound reassurance through the Human Design systems. I discovered I am a 3/5 reflector and also quite the introvert. We can handle what is in front of us. It helps to understand ourselves better so we can better advocate for our needs. 
You are not alone.
