In this episode of "All I Know," you'll meet Bonnie. She walks us through the impact her experiences in childhood had on her development, on how that shaping played out into her adulthood. Bonnie has wisdom to share in how we nurture our relationships with ourselves, and discusses how a run to Scotland began to help her heal, and as she put it, to "go into the fires of my own soul." If ever you have felt weary and wanted rescue to arrive, Bonnie will meet you there!
In this episode of "All I Know," several generations of the women on my family reflect on their time on the farm in Nebraska. Each, depending on the time of her birth, experienced the farm differently. Even so, many of the lessons from farm life were the same. Listen in, and catch all the light you can! As you make your way through this conversation, you will have to forgive the fact that we sound like we're huddled in a tin can! Picture these women huddled around a microphone - but not too close, because it's scary to be recorded! - with sound bouncing off the wood floor and the exposed vents of my mother's loft-style living room. We thank you in advance for forgiving our imperfection. ...
In this epsiode, you'll meet Josie. She healed her own broken heart after surviving a number of pregnancy losses, including a daughter - stillborn, at full term. Part of her healing came through the accidental finding (of what the scientific community calls) "flow" using a watercolor set. This conversation changed the way I think about most of the things I do each day - especially those that are mundane and repetitive. This is a connection you don't want to miss! Listen in, and catch all the light you can! Photo Credit: @amyandersonart ...
In this episode of All I Know, Taylor recounts her experience as a survivor of a shooting at her school when she was 15 years old. (As such, listeners who have experienced gun violence should listen with caution, as this episode may be especially triggering.) There are not enough of the right words to "tee up" this story, so listen in and see what can be learned from Taylor's lived experience in one of the darkest experiences a human being can have. "It's so important that we start having conversations about trauma, sbout mental health, about healing." Photo Credit: Olesja Allen ...
