YOUR STORY IS A LEGACY with Rosanna Giacalone - Life Story Guide, Spiritual Healer, Joy & Beauty Creator

Good morning Beautiful Soul,

Are you looking for your life partner?  You may be divorced or, you may be single, but what should you look for in "The One"?  I hear from so many people that had great relationship chemistry in the beginning that it fizzled out. 

So, I interviewed 20 couples who had 50+ years of a self-described beautiful marriage and asked them what made their relationship work and stand the test of time. 

I also asked them if it was love at first sight and you will be surprised when I answer almost half of them (9 to be exact) told me no.

Listen in, even if you are married to the words of advice and wisdom from these incredible couples...one of them is actually about to celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary. 

I hope this inspires you if you are searching for or leaning into your own beautiful marriage.

Until next week, I send you so much light and love,

Rosanna

Hello Beautiful Soul,

It takes one voice to galvanize other voices into action to start social change in this world.  The kind of change can help solve world problems.

How can you be a part of this great movement?  In this week's episode, I talk about an incredible movie I just saw called, "Uncharitable" on this very topic and help you ways to discover the causes that you are most passionate about and the talents you have to have to use in this world.

I can't wait to hear your stories.  Please post them in our wonderful private Facebook community: My Magnus Opus Community.

Until next week, I'm sending you so much light and love, Rosanna

Good morning Beautiful Souls,

I heard an inspiring prayer the other day and there was a line in it that stuck in my head.  The priest said, “Right thoughts lead to right actions and right actions lead to right living.”

I rewound that line on my drive home from the service and asked myself if I had right thoughts which of course, I interpreted as positive thoughts and the answer was yes.

So let’s this episode down into 3 parts of right or positive thinking:

Number 1) What is positive thinking?

Number 2) How can we achieve it?

And Number 3) What are the benefits of positive thinking?

If you are a negative thinker, or practice negative self-talk, you can change your behaviors with practice.

If you are positive thinker, this will be a good reminder when it is one of those times you are really stuck and need a good reset.

Until next week, I'm sending you so much light and love,

Hello Beautiful Soul,

Happy gearing up for Fall Monday!  By now, your kids are back in school, you’ve taken the Fall clothes out and maybe you’re even thinking about a fresh start. 

One of the things I am doing this Fall is teaching two of my nieces about Personal Finance.  This idea stemmed out of a conversation with my newly married niece who will be a first-time home buyer and also with my college-age niece who I always teach the importance of being financially independent.

Why is this important for your children to know and how does it help keep you on your financial toes?  Listen in as we cover these topics.

And, as always, I invite you to share your thoughts, tips and comments in our private community of like-minded inspiring individuals by going to: My Magnus Opus Community on Facebook.

And until next week, I send you so much light and love,

Rosanna

Hello Beautiful Soul,

Are you feeling alone or lonely?  There is a big difference between the two. We are alone by choice or by circumstance, but we feel lonely based on how we interpret our situation.

And ,if we feel lonely, this often makes us feel despondent and can eventually lead to depression.  So, what are things we can do to help us with these feelings.  Listen in, and I will tell you three ways to get started.

Feel free to share any of your own methods to ameliorate feelings of loneliness by going to our private facebook community: mymagnusopus or send me an email at: [email protected]. 

Until next week, I’m sending you so much light and love, Rosanna

Good morning Beautiful Soul,

Conflict.  It's something we deal with throughout our lives.  And, more often than not, we don't deal with it in a constructive way.

We may blow up as a result of the conflict, avoid the person or, even ignore the situation we are fighting about hoping it will blow over.

And as we know, these techniques do not work for a long term solution.

The secret to successfully resolving conflict is to really listen to the other and process what you say through your heart.

We dig a lot deeper into this subject in this week's podcast.

So, listen in, and I would appreciate if you are moved by something you hear, please leave a 5 star review on Itunes so that others who may need to may receive this free gift too.

Until next week, I'm sending you so much light and love,

Rosanna

Good morning Beautiful Soul,

Over the years, I’ve been blessed to learn the extraordinary lives others were living but had not shared with others –not even their children.  It has been such a gift to be able to ask the right questions to get people to open up and speak about themselves.  Ultimately, that is what gave birth to my passion driven company which is called, “My Magnus Opus” The Greatest Story Ever Told –Yours”.

Most people I’ve spoken to through the years agreed that they wanted to make a connection to something that was bigger and more enduring than their own lives.  They wanted a meaningful and lasting legacy that could help capture and guide their lives and live on with their children, family and future generations.

For this episode, I will give you a free resource to use to start to shape your own life story that may even we will work on a thinking and writing exercise that will help you to do just that -begin to leave your legacy.  It will likely lead to the self-actualization of the gifts you were born with to use in this world.  The writing guide prompts I use in this podcast can be downloaded as a free resource by going to: www.mymagnusopus.com

And until next week, I’m sending you so much light and love,

Good morning Beautiful Soul,

I have to say, there are certain topics that I get a few questions on and then there are others that there are so many, I know it is a topic that I have to cover.  Spotting Red Flags in relationships was one of those topics. 

The questions started with a number of followers talking about the sad endings of romantic relationships - be it an engagement, a marriage, or a long term love interest - even though every follower admitted that if they were honest with themselves the red flags were always there.  Other emails came in talking about friendships that showed red flags and still others talked about emotionally draining work situations where they chose to ignore the red flags.

So, I decided I would dedicate this show to spotting red flags and what we need to do to deal with them in order to protect ourselves and keep us in the healthy relationships we deserve in all areas of our lives.

Let me know your thoughts on this podcast since I would love to hear from you: [email protected].

And until next week, I send you so much light and love,

Rosanna
