"When one tugs at nature, he finds it attached to the rest of the world."
- John Muir
Have you ever had something happened to you so devastating that it literally took away your ability to breathe and dropped you to your knees?
Keltie Masters speaks candidly through her compelling account of how tragedy struck her family and of the despair and shock that took its toll on her.
Listen in as your host, Joanne Neweduk, offers deep reverence and compassion through Keltie’s dark journey back to love, and her miraculous soul expansion through the healing power of nature.
Keltie Masters and husband, Stan, have always had a love for nature. But it wasn’t until adversity struck, that they realized not only how much nature had to offer, but how truly important it is to our well being and the critical need to preserve it.
As wildlife photographers, their passion is to educate & inspire people to reconnect with nature through their lenses. Our latest creation is our Canadian made “Wearable Works of Art & Accessories”, featuring our own beautiful images of wildlife and scenes of nature.
Their vision of finding better solutions that support communities and protect the environment has led us to “giving back to nature” by supporting wildlife rehabilitation programs with their proceeds … as they believe every effort makes a difference.
Keltie and Stan invite you to join them in being a part of that difference.

Wash off the M.U.D. with Sandy and Joanne - April 21, 2021
Join this fun and enlightening discussion as Fabulous at 50 Podcast Producer, Sandy D’Acey, interviews Joanne Neweduk based on daring her to share her personal story released in 2018. Learn how M.U.D. (Me Under Distress) gets in unseen places of our mental, emotional and physical bodies and keeps us stuck in unconscious patterns and beliefs that no longer serve us. AND it can often keep us from what we want most!
Based on the true-life story of your host, Joanne Neweduk, “Daring To…” is a rich sharing of what many women have experienced or endured. Some may still have M.U.D. blocking their dreams.
Whether it’s bravery or daring, we are invited to take a deeper look at the layers that we’ve unconsciously put up with for months, years or even decades!
"The greatest obstacle we will ever have is to overcome is ourselves”, says Joanne.
Over the past decade, Joanne has metaphorically pulled up the weeds, planted a new garden, and is enjoying a deeply fulfilling life. Feeling cherished by the special man in her life, inspired by the wisdom of her adult children, and enjoying great synergy with her career, Joanne understands herself and her life purpose more than ever.
She shares, “There may still be a M.U.D. puddles from time to time, but I’m much more aware of them now and can move easily navigate my path.”

These tips helped Joanne DARE to Wash off the M.U.D. And you can too.
Join us as your host, Joanne Neweduk reads her published story 'Daring To...".
Joanne is inspired by women and how they push the limits living their lives, seeing it all through new eyes and in new ways. Washing off the 'mud' reveals our true brilliance.
"From my experiences, I know that there is always hope and a way to heal. There is always something or someone who is able to help us climb out the 'pit' and wash off the the muck." Ask for help when you recognize the muck in your beliefs that needs to be released.
"The greatest obstacle we will ever have to overcome is ourselves."

We know you'll enjoy this time-honored classic, read by the fabulous Joanne Neweduk. Joanne's family have created a treasured holiday tradition with the reading of 'Twas the Night Before Christmas every Christmas eve. So cozy up, and settle in as we revisit the childlike wonder of the magic of Christmas.
Some notes about the author: Clement Clarke Moore's famous poem, which he named "A Visit From St. Nicholas," was published for the first time on December 23, 1823 by a New York newspaper, the Sentinel. Since then, the poem has been reprinted, translated into innumerable languages and circulated throughout the world.
Moore was an author, a noted Hebrew scholar, spoke five languages, and was an early real-estate owner and developer in Manhattan. Despite his accomplishments, Clement Clarke Moore is remembered only for "'Twas the Night Before Christmas," which legend says he wrote on Christmas Eve in 1822 during a sleigh ride home from Greenwich Village after buying a turkey for his family. Some say the inspiration for Moore's pot-bellied St. Nicholas was the chubby, bewhiskered Dutchman who drove Moore to Greenwich Village to buy his holiday turkey. Moore never copyrighted his poem, and only claimed as his own over a decade after it was first made public. Moore read the poem to his wife and six children the night he wrote it, and supposedly thought no more about it. But a family friend heard about it and submitted the poem to the Sentinel, a newspaper in upstate New York, which published it anonymously the following Christmas. Moore's poem immediately caught the attention and imagination of the state, then the nation, and then the world. Finally, in 1844, he included it in a book of his poetry. Moore died in 1863 and is buried in Washington Heights, New York. Because of his "mere trifle," as he called it, 175 years ago Clement Clarke Moore almost single-handedly defined our now timeless image of Santa Claus.
Some scholars now believe the poem was actually written by Major Henry Livingston, Jr. Whatever the authorship controversy ultimately determines, this work has become a Christmas favorite. "'Twas the Night Before Christmas."
