In today's episode, coach Marla Beech highlights a journaling technique to get REAL with ourselves in safe and empowering ways thanks to a coach who introduced her to the research behind this application to self-care, Dr. Matt Townsend, https://matttownsend.com
Marla Beech, The Hope Coach, focuses on Finding PEACE with the past & HOPE for the future!
Marla is wife to the man she adores, mom to 4 adult children, 2 in-law children and a Grandma’ma!
Marla has a BS Degree in Elementary Education, is a Certified Peacemaker Coach through the Townsend Relationship Center, host of the Overburdened No More Podcast, and an educator/speaker.
She loves to hike, journal, travel, sew, knit, crochet, garden & read any chance she gets, which these days isn’t as often as she’d like.
Marla loves coaching women who are working their way through their FOG. As a woman who also deals with the FOG, she knows what it takes to stay mentally, physically, emotional and spiritually healthy.
As a certified Coach, Marla focuses on sharing skills of HOPE to those she works with, through journaling, mindfulness, priority planning, and positive psychology principles. She believes that connection with your TIME, LIFE, and SELF are key to overcoming the effects of your personal FOG.
As a devoted Christian, Marla shares how Jesus Christ gives lasting peace and hope, whatever your circumstances. “I acknowledge there are things I can’t resolve on my own and that the things I have learned that have saved me, ultimately came from Jesus Christ.”
Optimism is the result of having a perfect brightness of HOPE while loving God and all mankind.
Marla works one-on-one with clients as well as groups. She loves helping women apply skills that create HOPE through purpose driven practice. She offers many online classes and in-person group workshops to reach as many people as possible.
Marla is obsessed with connection! She desires every woman to feel connected to her SELF. This connection happens as she recognizes her unique gifts, talents, and character strengths and then uses them to connect to herself so she can connect more authentically with others.

Today's episode highlights the joy I felt reflecting on the last few years of high school, times of innocence, discovery, experiences that directed our passions, and the people there to experience it all with me. Today's chapter and location echoes the "querencia" of the years we explored forbidden places with unforgettable people. If you're ever out and about in Cayuga County, NY, somewhere between Auburn and parts beyond Owasco Lake, on the side not heading toward Moravia, maybe you'll discover "the end of the world" road too? My hope is that it hasn't been developed, demolished, and left free. The last time I saw it was 2000. A world has changed in between then and now...
In times that feel chaotic for due reason lately, take an uplifting story break. Take a journal break to recall the "querencia" of a season in your own life.
Today's research highlights the beauty of powerful writing assignments, the importance of documentation, and the power of warm, relived memories as we heal. The assignment this episode stems from was critical in finishing my M.S.Ed. program at Canisius College to become a teacher to young and adult writers for the past twenty-three years. It was captured in a journal I no longer have and, thankfully, a copy of the final draft I handed in for a grade from my portfolio.

Today's episode highlights the joy I felt reflecting on my childhood gymnastics glory days and how moving my body helped me recover from trauma. Today's adventure reflects on the glory days of the 1984 Olympics, Mary Lou Retton, Tim Daggett, Team USA. One Summer later,1985, was a glorious one for me and the highlight of that season was tumbling to a song off Prince's Purple Rain album when Olympian Tim Daggett was in my own home town! A little girl flew that day! We had an exhibition show at our gym and I had the solo floor routine!
Today's research highlights dissociation and how kids might cope with it. Grounding myself in movement, such as gymnastics, as well as journaling, very well could have saved my life at such a young age!

I'm a mostly Irish lass, part English, part German by birth, adopted and raised in a Polish-Ukrainian-American home. The language, food, cultural practices, religious upbringing, and things held sacred were those my Grandparents held dear. One of the most sacred people in my life growing up was my Ukrainian Grandmother, Liza.
Today's episode is a reflection on music and its power in my life, especially when I turned to memories of those who shaped me as I began healing after a torrential rain of heavy life challenges the Winter of 2021-2022. Today's chapter is devoted to my Ukrainian Grandmother, Liza, and the joy her lullabies, traditions, and presence meant to the deepest parts of my heart and soul as I journaled and remembered her while crafting my memoir.
Today's research is based on the impacts of music on the brain, particularly long-term memories and how they help us heal.

About a month ago a friend of mine said that my "superpower" is vulnerability. I took it as a deep compliment as I believe vulnerability and speaking our fully embodied truth opens doors for others to speak their experience and truth as well. I gained a wealth of wisdom on vulnerability from the work of Brene Browne and highly respect her work.
Mental health stigma needs to stop for us to be able to truly support one another in our healing journey as individuals and as a planet. Journaling and why I stress the research backing a journal for life practice for mental health is the backbone of this book.
Today's episode explores a suicide plan I did not go through with. Listen to hear who was there, the reasons I'm still alive today, and how you too, can get through your own dark night of the mind, body, and soul.
The years 2017-2022 were hellish for my family and I. I had no grief expert by my side, a handful of friends and family who walked us through it, and many who straight up abandoned us. Burning out and growing horribly ill after the stress of wave after wave of grief and loss was almost inevitable. But God. Thank God for the National Suicide Hotline, my treasured few who loved vs. judged and neglected us, Faith, and of course, journaling.

Today, we explore 2020-2021, and what it was like to serve as a high school teacher for me during Covid times. We explore burnout, folks letting us down, and how despite it all, God had my back. Logan Taylor's speech "U Matter," is a significant inspiration for this chapter as we journal because each of us matters and is fearfully and wonderfully made. Meditative, mental health journaling that supports body, mind, and spirit health is a self-care tool that got me through some of the toughest times in my career in education. Breathwork and grounding are important parts of my own journaling practice.

Today's chapter contains one swear word (sh**) that is part of Anne LaMott's quote. Out of great respect to one of my favourite authors, I kept the quote in its original form and context. If this word is offensive to you, my apologies and you might want to ensure little ears are not around when you are listening and journaling today early on in the episode.

Join us for a conversation that takes a deep dive into the ancient concept of the Hero's Journey, with Dr. John Drimmer, founder and chief trailblazer at Hero's Journey Interactive. With his expertise in positive psychology, guided meditation, storytelling, and cinematherapy, Dr Drimmer has dedicated his life to helping others unlock their inner hero.
From his Bio.: "Dr. Drimmer created the first ever immersive journaling experience, Hero’s Journey Interactive. He is a former Psychology Instructor at UCLA Medical School. Hero’s Journey Interactive (HJI) is an immersive simulation that helps inner-truth seekers find the hero within. Users take virtual journeys into a world of legend and myth where they meet allies and enemies, face tests and trials, and learn to see their lives as a hero’s journey. HJI employs aspects of meditation, journaling, cinematherapy, and positive psychology. Before becoming a psychologist, Dr Drimmer was a producer at 60 Minutes and won an Emmy for the TV series Intervention, and the DuPont-Columbia Award for his earlier work at PBS. His life's mission to help others unlock the hero within."
We explore the power of this transformative journey, and how it can be made accessible to everyone online, providing an immersive and enriching experience that propels individuals to face the unknown with bravery and self-understanding.
Dr Drimmer is not just an advocate of the Hero's Journey; he's been on his own personal hero's journey. He passionately discusses his goal for his program, which is to help people make peace with their fears, understand them, and build bridges of communication and understanding. The power of this program can be life-changing, as Dr Drimmer shares stories of unexpected transformation in patients' success, from a female novelist to a man from an IT division who found equipoise and gentle strength.
An ardent believer in the power of journaling, Dr. Drimmer weaves this potent tool into his work at Hero's Journey Interactive. As he expresses his gratitude for the opportunity to share his journey with our listeners, he sparks a sense of excitement for the future. This episode is a profound exploration of the hero's journey, the power of journaling, and the potential for personal transformation - a treasure trove of insights that could help you unlock your own inner hero.

Ever found yourself wrestling with the pressures of life? I've been there, and it's through this tough journey that I've found solace in the transformative power of journaling. In this episode, I bare my heart about my personal journey from a stressful 2021 school year to a winter of self-discovery, 2022, guided by the wisdom of the inspiring life coaches Cathy Heller and Colleen Arneal in a program I took part in, Abundant Ever After. Along with counselors outside of the program, healers and friends, deep shadow work, and prayer time with God, they showed me how to unburden myself and rediscover the joy of being me. I invite you to journey with me as we explore the insightful depths of journaling together.
Have you ever considered what it means to let go of the labels and identities given to us by others? It's a powerful release that can lead us right back to our true essence. We dive into this topic in the second half of the episode, providing a mindful moment of journaling to the soothing sounds of Masood Taj's "Unconditional Love" track.

Today's guest is Kathy Strauss, international bestselling co-author in Ignite Your Faith, award-winning artist, and someone I felt VERY comfortable sharing a casual, vulnerable, and open conversation surrounding all topics writing, healing through writing, and the creative endurance within each of us!
Today has no journal prompt, so I will provide one for you based on our conversation. Think of a time that if you DIDN'T turn to the page and write it down that you felt you might have "lost it" completely? Write for 5-minutes and reflect on what you find. Circle 3 things you are grateful for learning about this time on the page. Thank this time for serving you and helping you to grow.
Kathy's BIO:
With a background in design and a certification as a Creatively Fit Coach, Kathy has been in the creative industry for over 40 years. She found her creative voice with her camera and uses it to tell stories for personal branding, commercial clients & families. Fine art is her “release”, using her camera to show the world how she sees it & her mixed media work – a tapping into the universal energy that surrounds us. She was a founding artist at the Workhouse Arts Center and President of the Arches Gallery Artists in Lorton, VA & currently serves on the Board of Directors with the Seacoast Artists Guild in Myrtle Beach, SC. She is passionate about the arts and contributing to the community that she now calls home.

When Kathy's husband fell ill, she turned to Facebook as a journal to document their journey and maintain sanity. This simple act of recording their experiences not only provided a record of his progress, but also allowed her to process her emotions and heal. Join me as we explore the power of journaling, creativity, and the telling stories and navigating challenging times. Some of which have inspired Kathy's story in Ignite Your Faith, her award-winning adult coloring books, and her future books already in progress.
Kathy and I dive deep into the importance of emotion, heart, and flow in writing and how these elements can create powerful stories. From capturing meaningful moments in maternity shoots to creating coloring books, we discuss the role of the right brain in our creative expression. We also explore activities like meditation and spending time in nature as ways to tap into our creative side. Kathy shares her upcoming writing projects and our heartfelt conversation about journaling, creativity, and the power of healing in vulnerable storytelling.

WHAT'S going on here EXACTLY???
We're talking the V-word here! V-u-l-n-e-r-a-b-i-l-i-t-y
The late Kurt Cobain had a point when he sang his heart out to youth not so long ago, and so "Come As You Are," still rings true for me today.
This is EXACTLY what our journaling practice invites us to do! Show up, as you are, ready to get gritty, honest, and vulnerable.

Is writing for an audience of ONE worth it? I've asked myself this question as I journaled since the age of eight.
Reading Julia Cameron's Write for Life book answered my question with brilliant clarity-yes, writing in your journal, for an audience of One first is the safest way to begin your journaling practice.
Today, we look at the WHO we journal for and WHO we connect with in this sacred, joyful process.
I also whisper hints for next week's episode-WHEN to journal and HOW to begin, both nods to Chapter One.
This week and next week, we dive into Chapter One of Julia Cameron's masterpiece Write for Life, and apply the treasures I discovered about journaling in the process.

Happy Star Wars Day! Here is a Force-guided, Spirit led, pop-up, mini-sode for us to celebrate!
You have the force within you (with pen in hand) ready to strike down any situation you think is trying to overcome you.
Afterall, Edward Bulwer-Lytton (1839), wasn't playin' when he said "the pen is mightier than the sword."
You possess soul power equipped with pen in hand!
Take up your light saber today and write it out.
Tell life who's boss and settle into a peace that surpasses understanding, a force of love for the world to contend with as you choose strength and guidance in the pages of your journal.
How can surrendering it to the pages serve you today?
Today's Journal Prompt:
Dear (insert situation you're feeling feisty about) _____________________, today I choose peace over the power you're trying to exert over me. I choose to give you grace and strike you down with love and light within me. You try to shake me, overtake me, even strike me down, but I give my (insert the emotion you're feeling about the situation, examples: anger, fear, shame, disappointment, anxiety, pain, irritation) _____________________________ to you, my journal pages today. I ask Love to dissolve this situation and how I feel about it, to make it lighter, that I too may walk away feeling lighter, ready to stand in my Force power today. Thank you, journal. Thank you, Love. Now close your journal and walk away. You literally just set that stuff down! May the Force be with you!
“If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.” ~Obi-Wan Kenobi to Darth Vader, Star Wars Episode IV, A New Hope (1977, Lucasfilm)
-It was never about exerting power, it was about settling into peace, a Force beyond the body, one seated in the Stars, beyond space and time, available anywhere in the Universe, once Obi-Wan surrendered. Wise Jedi. Choose surrender today.Happy Star Wars Day! Joyful Journaling to you!!!
And for my friends practicing Christianity: Philippians 4:7 ESV* speaks to this: "And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Holy Spirit and this peace meet you, between the pages of your journal. Blessings!

We're closing Season 2 with a Powerhouse of a Guest for you-Diana Lockett.
Diana and I met through my own Storytelling Coach, Sarah Cross, and have kept in touch since last year. Diana has been a powerful mentor to me and I'm grateful for her presence and loving compassion on this planet. She has gifted me with great clarity toward my own passion and purpose.
I knew Diana's wisdom when it comes to mental health, somatic healing, and conscious communication was exactly the place to pause and soak it all in before launching Season Three in a short time from now.
I hope you enjoy our conversation! The journaling prompts (there are generously TWO that Diana shares) are at around the 38-minute mark.
Here's some information about Diana that she graciously prepared for me to share:
"Diana is a five time International Bestselling Author and International Speaker who uses her superpower of vulnerable storytelling to allow her audience to soften into their own loving presence. As a visionary Conscious Communication Leadership Consultant and Coach, she creates safe spaces that invite leaders, teams, and educators to Re-Align to Thrive™ to transform their corporate teams and classrooms by accessing inspired wisdom and inspired action. The result is an environment where participants feel relaxed and safe to communicate confidently and clearly and build compassionate relationships rooted in collaboration, innovation, education, integration, and cooperation.
Diana is a mother of two incredible humans who have been her greatest teachers. She lives in the beautiful mountains of British Columbia, Canada, where she is inspired daily to meditate, practice and teach yoga, build community, and be in nature."
You can read more about Diana on her website: https://www.dianalockett.com/
Diana's latest upcoming book, The Call to Freedom: Heal Your Pain, Awaken Your Loving Presence, is available for pre-order now! It publishes 4.1.23!
You can order it here: https://tinyurl.com/TheCalltoFreedomDianaLockett
Speaking of books, have you read the memoir with journal space that I published to help you put your mental health first? Embodying Joy: A Heart Journal, A Memoir for Body, Mind, & Spirit Health is available as an ebook, hardcover, and now a paperback. Journaling saved my life. What can journaling do for you?

Self-Love starts with Tending to our Mental Health.
Today, to kick off March, I have Mastermind.com Coach, Shelly Vecchio. Shelly coaches for Tony Robbins and Dean Graziosi, as well as owns her own business, Gloryus, podcasts, and is a super Mom to a seven-year-old son.
I met Shelly in a powerful women's group last year. We were podmates, so seeing her journey blossom as a mental health advocate feels like watching family grow into their dreams.
Shelly is continually present online, encouraging others to be their own hero with their mental health. Shelly models: "Living a life of joy, passion, & purpose is possible if you allow it."
I hope you enjoy this inspiring conversation about how to tend to your mental health, including journaling as part of this process.
*Today's Journal prompt to complete at your own pace and time begins at the 43:53 timestamp in our conversation.

Today, we have a reflection on the Retreat I had with a group of beautiful women today.
Today's prompt and reflection is about one of my Tools of Joy Super Powers (aka Life is Good's Optimism Traits)-Gratitude.
"Gratitude and Growth" is the title of today's episode.
The quote I read from one of my favorite books, Life is Good: The Book (2015), by John and Bert Jacobs, can be purchased on Amazon or your favorite bookstore. Here is a link to find it easily today: https://www.amazon.com/Life-Good-Book-Bert-Jacobs/dp/1426215630/ref=asc_df_1426215630/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=312748656151&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=11408481147783736168&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9005057&hvtargid=pla-493289841991&psc=1
I hope that you'll enjoy this quick prompt, especially if you attended the With Love, Your Journal Retreat today.
We raised some money to give to Renewal House of Canton, NY, today together, and spent some time connecting with ourselves and our journals toward increasing embodiment of joy.

Once Upon Your Shoulders
Today, we apply self-love to an emotion that likes to sit heavy upon us and even causes us physical pain in our shoulders and beyond: stress.
Research referred to can be found in:
The book The Things They Carried, (2009), by Tim O'Brien, available wherever you purchase your books.
and
Elite Sports Medicine and Orthopedics, out of Nashville, TN, in their 2018 blog article, "Can Stress Cause Shoulder Pain," located at: https://www.eliteorthopaedic.com/blog/can-stress-cause-shoulder-pain#:~:text=Tension%20and%20tightness%20in%20your,stretching%20and%20other%20relaxation%20methods.
and
The University at Buffalo, School of Social Work's 2010, publication, "Stress Journaling," located at: https://socialwork.buffalo.edu/content/dam/socialwork/home/self-care-kit/exercises/stress-journaling.pdf
Though this is not journal therapy, let me help you focus on pain in your shoulders or other areas of your body today caused by stress in a new way today with this pin-point focused prompt based on sound research.

Welcome to Day 9 of the Self-Love Journaling Challenge!
Pen Down Your Anxiety
We are so thankful that you are putting YOU at the top of your priority list today!
Today, we apply self-love to an emotion that likes to rev us up and needs release: Anxiety.
Research referred to today about journaling when you're anxious is from Dr. Elizabeth Scott's 2022 article on verywellmind's website titled, "Journaling to Cope with Anxiety," at: https://www.verywellmind.com/journaling-a-great-tool-for-coping-with-anxiety-3144672
Learning how to feel, hold gratitude for, and embrace our bodies is such an important part of self-love. Loving ourselves through and past anxiety in our body is an important choice that journaling can help with.
Though this is not journal therapy, I do refer to sound research and specifically a medically reviewed article today that specializes in anxiety reduction and release through journaling.
If you need further support with your anxiety, reach out to a family member, a therapist, or even your doctor. You are loved and supported through this. I'm here if you'd like for me to listen in a DM as a friend too.
Let me help you focus on anxiety in a new way today with this pin-point focused prompt.

Welcome to Day 8 of the Self-Love Journaling Challenge!
Good Grief
We are so thankful that you are putting YOU at the top of your priority list today!
Today, we apply self-love to an emotion that affects all parts of the body-Grief.
Research referred to today about grief, how it affects us, and the importance of processing it are from Dr. Cynthia Li's website and her article "Two Simple Ways to Release Grief," located at: https://cynthialimd.com/two-simple-ways-to-release-grief/
Learning how to feel, hold gratitude for, and embrace our bodies is such an important part of self-love. Loving ourselves through grief and its effects on our body is an important choice that journaling can help with.
Though this is not journal therapy, I do refer to sound research and specifically a doctor's website today who specializes in the grief/body/journaling connection.
If you need support in your grieving process, reach out to me, a friend, our joyful journaling community, a family member, a therapist, or even your doctor. You are loved and supported through this process. Don't let grief keep you from embodying the joy you ultimately deserve.
Let me help you focus on release today with this pin-point focused prompt.

We are so thankful that you are putting YOU at the top of your priority list today!

Research referred to about our heads and headaches is from the National Institute of Health branch, the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke and their page on "Headaches", located at: https://www.ninds.nih.gov/health-information/disorders/headache

It was my birthday this past weekend!

Hey, Joyful Journalers! This week has been a showstopper for me!
My day job work colleagues at Life is Good threw me a surprise party to celebrate the launch of my book. I work with the BEST people!
I ended up in bed with the full-blown flu. Healing now. Thankful!
I was able to speak in Gratitude on a program of women that have enriched my life beyond explanation in 2022 this week.
I published the hardcover of my book based on my journals FOR journalers to boot!
What's been warming you up these late January days? I'd love to hear!
Today on the podcast, Sarah Cross, my Storytelling Coach, and I discuss the importance of Storytelling and how my book, Embodying Joy: A Heart Journal, A Memoir for Body, Mind, & Spirit Health, came to be-because she helped me LISTEN to my own stories-written first in my journal.
Sarah is an multiple bestselling international author, a professional storytelling coach, and the host of "Stories That Wow" Podcast.
You can find all things Sarah at: Coaching, Writing, Podcasting, and More!

I am so grateful for this celebration conversation!
I hope you'll enjoy the prompt that comes from our conversation today and keep on being true to your own story! Today's episode is a little longer but worth the listen and the journaling that follows!
Here is the link to the book I mention, my own, available on Amazon to help you embody joy too!

One of my favourite musicals growing up was "Into the Woods". I adored the characters' quests, sharing their dreams in the process...kind of like we do here, digging deeper into ourselves through journaling. In the opening song, Little Red Riding Hood sings,"Into the woods/To get the thing/That makes it worth/The journeying/into the woods" (Sondheim).
Similarly, we enter each year seeking our own clarity on a dream for the new year ahead and all the discoveries we'll make along the way, making it worth the journaling.
Today we discuss digging into a different kind of root, etymology, to shine light on the word we have chosen for 2023. Merriam-Webster defines etymology as"the history of a linguistic form (such as a word) shown by tracing its development since its earliest recorded occurrence ." https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/etymology
We also discuss the many ways jouranling helps us discover clarity in multiple areas of our lives.
Go into the woods with your focus word for 2023 today; you're sure to enjoy the treasures you find!

Roots of the word "Clarity" (My word for 2023):

Happy 2023! True Story: I created this podcast thanks to our guest today!!!
A mutual Coach and mentor, Cathy Heller, once said to us, "your love, loves others into life," and the Heck Yes! Coach, my very own podcasting coach, Tiphany Kane, made these words come to life for me!
Radical Audacity is part of ALL that award-winning podcaster, writer, Ted Talk speaker, International speaker, and podcasting coach, Tiphany Kane, embodies.
Tiphany Kane, and her partner, David Sais, are my podcasting coaches and co-hosts of Mastering the Podcast Mindset Podcast. Tiphany is also host of the Radical Audacity in Love and Life Podcast, one of the first podcasts I EVER listened to!
Tiphany and I shared a conversation about realistic, loving goals for 2023, and how journaling can be a joyful part of this process.
May this conversation inspire you to set realistic, loving goals via a journaling style that works best for you!

Visualize Journaling in a new Way with my special guest, Diane Gibbs, Dr. of Gourmetology!
Today's episode is a 40 min. conversation
A follow-up journal entry to complete sometime this week is: "I am Grateful for..."
*Take 15 min. just for you!
Join our Joyful Journaling w/Becca Rae to SEE the VIDEO of this podcast!

Besides being a resident EXPERT in Visual Journaling, Diane is:
*a Dr. of Gourmetology and Founder and COE of Gibbs Goodies

She is passionate about healing and inspired to improve the whole self through self care, physical activity, mindful relationships, spirituality and nourishing the body with whole real food.
*an inspiring female entrepreneur! Her family's restaurant, Gibbs Country House, was famous for their Sticky Buns. She wanted to keep the family food legacy alive and revived Gibbs Goodies as a healthy alternative to the family recipes she loved. Particularly fond of cookie dough she started making an all natural, whole food, vegan treat called STICKY BALLS! A delightful sweet treat that tastes like cookie dough, but supports the healthiest version of you!
*just celebrated 11 years alcohol free and was inspired to bring her Podcast (420 Reasons Why I Quit Drinking) to life.
Listen to her Podcast @ https://anchor.fm/Diane-gibbs420

Can you smell what I smell?
Maybe...Maybe not?
And yet when we go to discuss hues that unite our senses, smell is one of the best AND most powerful there is!
Ready to dip into your mid-day, lunch break, journal break?
Today you'll need a pen, your journal, and a working sense of smell to fully participate.
When you can see scents on the page as you journal, you are engaged in a mindful activity proven to activate your mental health so long as...
1. It's old school (recommendations are to journal on paper with a writing utensil by hand)
2. You keep is simple (whatever comes to you, comes to you- let it be and judge it not).
3. You make it a routine (haha...gotcha there...this is week three, folks. I'm super proud of you for sticking with it!)
Today, we tap into the power of focusing on our third sense: SMELL
I hope you're sitting near something good to smell today!

Mindset is important but so is action. You can't juice the best out of life without putting yourself first and knowing your worth.
Holistic Health Coach Maria McKeon is a yoga, pilates, and nutrition coach who helps women find their spiritual alignment in life through healthy choices including diet, body movement, and lifestyle choices.
Self-care is a choice and Maria has devoted her life to placing valuable tools into women's hands. I am one of these women.
In the winter, while recovering from some awful, life pausing sinus issues, I met Maria thanks to a Cathy Heller Program called Abundant Ever After. In my eyes, Maria was a standout mentor in the program and groups, always smiling and empowering others, always encouraging women to give yoga a try in a safe way-her online classes.
I took her up on these classes a few times and have never felt so safe, safe enough to explore and push past resistance that pops up when you have a bigger build and a body in healing mode. I released so much during her carefully guided yoga sessions and continued to follow her and have some nice chats via DMs over the months.
We knew our conversation would be an enriching gift to Beckoning Joy's listeners tonight!

As this releases, it's just shy of August! So VERY much has changed since I released my first podcast episode back in April, including the fact that I now have some pretty sexxy sound equipment SINCE talking with Brenda, unfortunately. Gotta love Podcasting School and all its perks!! HEAR this difference in all my future episodes!
Today's guest was the VERY first person to host ME on HER podcast, just DAYS before my episode 1 released! In between these months, Brenda Winkle, has moved from my Cathy Heller Abundant Ever After Sister to my YES Academy Coach, and a cherished cross-country friend.
Brenda Winkle is an energy expert, an empowerment coach, and an Advanced ThetaHealing® Meditation Technique Practioner. She has been in business since 2015.
Currently living in Portland, Oregon, Brenda attributes her self-care growth to stepping way out of her comfort zone. From freeing herself from an abusive marriage to moving all the way across the country from Boise, Idaho, growth is invigorating yet challenging! However, staying in the moment, learning to regulate our emotions, and experiencing life in new ways surely is the key to accessing JOY!
Join two teachers and podcast hosts as they hit on everything from surviving teaching during the pandemic to parenting, from Shakespeare to Lizzo! This cross America conversation West Coast/East Coast, has a little something for each of us to ponder when it comes to taking a pause and leaning into self-care!
Brenda says she wants to "help other people unlock their own happiness without the struggle. The best way to heal the world is to help one person at a time find their purpose, passion, and peace. "
You can find Brenda at all the links below! Don't forget to check out her internationally successful podcast, Waves of Joy, too, wherever you catch your podcasts!

Coming Up!
This SUNDAY, 7.17.22: Author Nicole Spindler discusses how her own self-care journey led to an author's journey complete with TWO published books!
Podcasting is a journey and often an imperfect one filled with moments where we apply new skillsets, and grow, just like in the practice of life...just like with the practice of peace.
In today's episode you'll hear one of the first interviews I ever held with one of the most natural conversations two Moms could have.
Author Christine Francisco and I cover it all, from helping our children through illness, to how our own journeys led to centering, self-care practices, to tasty treats we allow ourselves in small yes moments to ourselves.
Please excuse the blemishes of one of my earliest recordings, but I will never apologize for a lovely and empowering conversation. Please join our sojourn and welcome, Christine Francisco!
Join Christine's email list to receive the first steps to The Peace Practice and be added to her private interactive Peace Practice group on Facebook today! "SPARK PASSION.
INSTILL HOPE. GO FOR IT!"

Thank you to all the Dads out there, the Dads who have passed on who we hold in loving memory, and to the Moms out there who pull not double, but quadruple duty in my experience when Dads aren't present for whatever reason. Parenting matters! Love the ones you're with today!
Welcome from our new home studio in Saranac Lake, the Capital of the Adirondack Mountains, in beautiful Upstate New York!
We've spent the last three weeks finishing up the school year tutoring my students 1:1, finishing the manuscript for my first memoir publishing with New Degree Press in February, going to podcasting school attending my Yes Academy self-care coaching group with Brenda Winkle, AND...yep, WE MOVED!
https://www.brendawinkle.com/
This week's episode is all about daisies, Dads, and new beginnings! And wow do I have a self-care sojourn story for you-MY OWN!
Today, I share a story about a time-out I gave myself during a ridiculously busy time, a sign I asked for to guide my way, and the miracles and move to ensued thanks to the time I gave in saying YES to me!

We are thrilled to share our first guest with you on Beckoning Joy! Thank you taking a pause to sojourn with us tonight!
As meditation has provided incredible positive shifts in my own life, I sought out Masako to share her powerful story.
Masako Kozawa shares her transformative process, from dark night of the soul to now living out her mission: to live the most expansive, fulfilling, authentic life and empower and invite others along the way!
Masako is a Japanese native, mother, teacher and student of mindfulness meditation, host of "Why not meditate?" podcast, photographer, and painter.
Like me, she loves coffee and nature, and she also adores "fluffy creatures.”

Looking forward to our conversations! Next week, our first guest!! <3
Today's episode is dedicated to my son, Raymond, who is always noticing the details on purpose. Last year at this time he was building a miniature French Burgundian city to scale for his final Senior Project. Today, he finds the subtleties in arrangements of Baroque music and the shades of the sunset skies. Good luck on your college finals coming up, Kiddo! We love ya!
Tonight, noticing pays off too! The first guest to share WHAT kind of TREE I'm referring to in this episode wins a free Denik journal! Denik's mission is one I'm sure you'll align with "Art Can Change the World."
https://denik.com/pages/about-us
What do you notice on purpose?
How can this simple self-care practice pay off for you?
Take time to notice one thing a day differently. It could be a room, a person, a routine drive, the tasteful notes hiding in your cup of tea.
Taking time to notice one thing a day differently and with intention is a form of self-care to stay joyful and grounded, opening ourselves to new possibilities and even outlooks on life.
We have two more minisodes, and next Sunday I'm devoting the podcast to any who have served in a mothering role in their life.
Coming up, beginning 5.22.22, we have GUESTS!
Some of our first guests coming up include folks peaking to:
-self-care in job transition
-self-care in parenting practices
-meditation as self-care
-intention as self-care
-radical integrity practice as self-care
-decluttering as self-care
-chakra alignment as self-care
-aligned nutrition as self-care
-yoga as self-care
-poetry as self-care
-reiki as self-care
-singing as self-care
-money mindset as self-care
