Zen Mama & Everyday Gurus

In this Episode Mary shares about a visit to her daughter Kate, who is currently serving time in prison facing drug related charges.  We hear about her four grandchildren she and her husband have been raising for nine years, moving forward with the podcast and career shifts.  How to stay resilient through this hard and beautiful life; Inviting us all in 2024 to come back to ourselves through practicing selfcare and finding ways to empty your container.  While reminding us that when we carry the weight of our struggles together the weight lifts a little bit.  

Mary is offering a few writing groups. If that calls to you there are new groups starting in March.  Find the link to her website and socials below to learn more!

This weeks episode begins our emPOWRD journey!

I have been listen, learning and humaning for a while now and just like you life has thrown me a few curve balls. The way I have responded has been to understand how to stay resilient, how to care for myself, so I can then show up fully for the people and situations in my life. AND I when life got really hard I decided I wanted to live the hard things fully so I can embrace and celebrate the good and beautiful things. My tag line has become, "it's a hard and beautiful life"- that's just the truth of it. 

So here is the beginning of me sharing some of the tools I use to figure out to ride the waves of this human life, which has ultimately led me to living a more authentic aligned life.. I call this my toolkit . This has turned into a "program" I offer to others so you can build your own toolkit and live your most beautiful, hard precious life.
