• 070 | Polarity in Relationships as Parents and Partners with Shiloh Minor
    Jun 9 2025

    This episode is near and dear to my heart. I loved my first conversation with Shiloh Minor so very much I had to have her back, and in truth I think this conversation was even better.

    Polarity is a super hot topic in the dating world - but what about once we commit to our partner? What then? How do we maintain the ease we found while dating once we live together, have children together, are truly building a life together? These are all topics we explore in this conversation and I trul think polarity from this angle is life changing.

  • 069 | Benefits and Sacrifices in Our Homeschool Journey
    May 26 2025

    Welcome back! In this episode I look at the benefits and sacrifices (they all come up as benefits in the end as I see them!) of our homeschooling journey. Homeschooling is a wonderful privilege our family enjoys, and it is not without it's drawbacks. The truth is the chauffeuring, the financial differences, the time commitment in general, these are all real and often down played - but they are so worth it!

    Listen in and see how I see this part of the journey as all good because at the end of the day the pros outweigh the cons every single time.

  • 068 | The Why Behind Self Care with Stretch 'n Release Creator Butch Phelps

    I, personally, dislike the term self care - I feel it is often just one more things added to the to do list. In this episode Butch Phelps walks us through how he went from overweight and divorced to married to his best friend, in great shape and feeling better than ever. He really took the time to cultivate a life of his dreams.

In his technique Butch outlines the mind-body connection and how he sees it as essential to understand that piece to create internal safety for muscles to release and allow deep healing and pain free living.

    Tune in to hear all the wisdom Butch shares about his journey and how you can become pain fee by really understanding the mind-body connection and work WITH your body to create the safety to heal.

  • 067 | Why We Homeschool
    Apr 28 2025

    In this episode I outline the 5 reasons why we have chosen to start and continue homeschooling our 4 children. The main reasons are more lifestyle and less academic, and I forgot one of the main ones: fostering relationships between our children, how could I forget that?!?

    Listen in for some real reasons why it works for us and watch for a follow up episode about what I see as benefits and sacrifices we've chosen and found along the way.

  • 066 | Miles Spencer's Perspective on Family and Life in the Middle East
    Apr 14 2025

    Entrepreneur and author Miles Spencer and I sat down and had a wonderful discussion full of vivid stories inspired by his latest book, A Line in the Sand, which he co-authored with Wells Jones. The book is an adventure saga set against the back drop of the MIddle East. The inspiration came from a real life trip Miles and Wells took where they were in with the people of various regions of the Middle East and were able to stay with them, dine with them and learn about them in ways we do not see in most media.

    Miles shares with me some stories of the travels and how family, food, religion and people are the same across cultures.

  • 065 | Trust Your Intuition
    Mar 31 2025

    This episode is about a topic that is near and dear to my heart. Intuition has always been something that guided me, I have had a weakened connection to my intuition at times but it was always there, like a really good friend.

    In this episode I walk you through why I think intuition is such a key factor in how we move through our day, why I trust it with big decisions and how important I think it is to show our children to use it.

    Boundaries, decision, the mental load - oh my! How do all these things relate to intuition? Tune in to find out!

  • 064 | Raising a Family Without Conflict and Safer, Cleaner Water with Mark Miller
    Mar 17 2025

    In this episode I was joined by Mark Miler, a husband, father, grandfather and passionate advocate for clean water for all.

    We started our conversation by exploring Mark's upbringing and how he raised his children and he shared with me the things he thinks he got right, the things he wishes he had done differently and the things he wants others to know. It was a great persepctive of a man who has been married for 54 years and raised 5 children who love an respect him to this day.

    We then moved into Mark's passion of bringin clean water to the masses through filtration systems where one isnt reliant on electricity, nor customers for life (no need to buy new filters EVER on some of the systems!).

  • 063 | The Comparison Trap as it Relates to Relationships and Boundaries
    Mar 3 2025

    In this solo episode I explore what the comparison trap - the need to compare ourselves to others and find fault with our lives or be envious of others, really is and how we can resist it.

    Tune in to hear what I believe the underlying cause is and how I try and combat it, and my hopes and dreams for myself in continuing to try and stay in my own lane as I build the home life I want for my children.
