Join me, Cindy Hyde, as we venture into the heartrending world of Kimberly, a woman whose life was forever altered by a traumatic brain injury but found solace and strength in the rhythms of poetry. Discover the profound transformation that unfolded when she turned to verse for therapy, and learn how her early love for poetry, kindled at the age of 10, became her lifeline through the complexities of TBI recovery. Her story isn't just one of personal triumph; it's a beacon for others navigating similar dark waters, proving that the pen can indeed be mightier than the sword.

    This episode is an ode to resilience, a tribute to the human spirit's indomitable ability to rise from adversity. Kimberly isn't just a survivor; she's a warrior who channels her experience into advocacy, education, and support for fellow TBI survivors. As we journey through her involvement in healing art classes and support groups, we uncover the essential role that community, self-expression, and creativity play in the healing process. And through her poetry, brimming with divine love and resilience, Kimberly offers not just a coping mechanism but a source of eternal hope for anyone facing their own battles.

  • Freedom: The Healing Process for Traumatic Events in Your Past with Phyllis Ann Larue
    Mar 25 2024

    Imagine carrying the weight of past traumas and wondering if true freedom is ever within reach. Phyllis Ann Larue, author of "Freedom: The Healing Process for Traumatic Events in Your Past," graced us with her presence, unraveling the emotional tapestry of liberation and the ripple effect one person's freedom can have on others.

    Together, we ventured through our personal narratives, touching on the divine twists of fate and the humility one feels when chosen to share profound healing. Phyllis, with her gentle wisdom, painted a vivid picture of how writing becomes more than just a craft - it's a vessel for change, a beacon for those navigating their way out of darkness.

    As our conversation unfolded, we tackled the complexities of healing and forgiveness, and the roles they play in the aftermath of personal upheaval. I shared how Facebook became an unexpected sanctuary for one struggling soul, exemplifying the potential of social media as a force for good.

    We dissected the grief process, acknowledging that emotions like shock, denial, anger, and isolation are not linear but an intertwined dance that requires grace and patience. This chapter of our discussion was a reminder that healing is not a destination but a journey, and that journey often requires a community, a hand to hold, and a safe space to unravel.

    The final stages of our heartfelt exchange brought us to the transformative power of forgiveness and the road toward spiritual healing. We delved into the deeper aspects of Phyllis's work, including her impactful 90-day devotional, and the small yet significant steps one can take to achieve inner peace.

    Ending our session with a prayer, we reached out to those bound by their past, affirming that freedom is not just a possibility, but a divine promise. Phyllis's insights and the promise of her book stand as a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the unwavering love that guides us all towards emancipation from our chains.

  • A Mother's Crusade Against Suicide Deborah Nelis's Inspiring Efforts
    Mar 21 2024

    The depths of a mother's love and the abyss of her grief are unimaginable until you hear Deborah Nelis share her story of loss and hope. When her son Nick's life was tragically cut short, the wake of his suicide and the childhood trauma that preceded it became a catalyst for a broader conversation - one that Deborah courageously leads in today's episode. The pain of familial betrayal and the failure of protective services is laid bare, as we unravel the complex layers of seeking help for a child in distress and the ways in which substance abuse often fills the void of emotional turmoil.

    Transitioning from the raw realities of loss, we find ourselves in a place of healing and the search for comfort in the signs left behind, like the butterflies that guide Deborah to a sense of peace. Her story shifts from despair to action as she establishes a ministry in Nick's memory, aiming to lift others from the precipice of hopelessness. Through candid discussions and personal testimonies, we explore the transformative power of outreach and the undeniable presence of faith in the darkest of times. This episode is a testament to the endurance of the human spirit and an invitation to those touched by tragedy to find solace and purpose in the aftermath.

  • Fantasy Author Krystal Clark - Book: Balance of Power (The Chozien Path Series)
    Dec 15 2023

    AUTHOR: Fantasy Author Krystal Clark Interview
    BOOK:
    Balance of Power (The Chozien Path Series)
    BOOK TEASER: Krystal Clark (@movingwithmeaning82) • Instagram photos and videos
    BOOK LINK ON AMAZON: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CH5HB26B
    BOOK DESCRIPTION:

    The Great Spirit has entrusted one special ame (a spirit) to us all: It resides in a child. A child to be groomed in the fashion of his or her order. A child known as the Chozien and sent by the Great Spirit. This child has a heightened ame capable of molding and shifting the way of our world.
    Once our study of the spirit language achieved a degree of sophistication, we were able to receive the Great Spirit’s counsel. This instruction calls to the spirit seekers of all orders, advising them that a new Chozien has been born, though his place of origin is always unknown. After one Chozien’s ame has left this world, a new one is born and the cycle begins again, as does the quest to find him—known as the Quête.
    The order that finds the Chozien can subsequently disrupt or soothe the world we live in.
    The Onyx Order, in the eastern Upperlands, has always coveted the Chozien for themselves. They embrace domination, by which their strength is determined and their numbers multiply. Their order is a constant menace, yet their fear of being overtaken keeps them from maintaining a ruling grip over the other orders.
    The order that holds the Chozien can make or break the future. As such, the progress or peril of our days ahead rests upon the shoulders of the order that lays claim to the Chozien.
    In this tale, the Great Spirit has called to all orders that a new Chozien has been born. The search has already begun. All have released their finest huntsmen and spirit seekers to find the child.
    We can only hope that we are not too late.
