    008 – Listen with Your Heart
    Feb 17 2026

    007 – What Would Love Do?
    Feb 10 2026
    For all I share about my challenging relationship with my father, this isn’t an episode about anger, hurt, pain or resentment. It's about resolution and reconciliation. It’s about moving forward and moving on. It’s about love.

    006 – It's Never Too Late to Follow Your Dreams
    Feb 3 2026

Whatever they are, reach your hand into that drawer and pull them out. Reawaken them. Rekindle them. Reignite them. Whether you're 20, 50 or 80, it's never too late to follow your dreams!

    005 – The Moment That Changes Everything
    Jan 27 2026
    Every choice I make, right down to the choice I made to record this podcast episode, is another step on the journey that takes me to that point where everything changes, to that moment of shift, where nothing is ever the same again.

    004 – Leaps of Faith
    Jan 20 2026
    When we get out of our heads and listen to our heart, when we follow our intuition, our inner guidance, our inner wisdom or whatever you choose to call that innate, indwelling presences that resides in each of us, we open up an amazing treasure chest of magic, miracles and opportunities. And life is never, ever the same.

    003 – An Inconvenient Truth
    Jan 13 2026
    There are three stories of how I came to be: the conventional one, the one close family and friends were told...and the truth.

    002 – The Writer I Nearly Wasn't
    Jan 6 2026
    Many authors say, "Oh, I've always known I wanted to be a writer" or "I've always known I wanted to write books" or "I started making books out of construction paper even before I could read or write." None of those writers is me!

  • 001 – Stories Matter!

    001 – Stories Matter!
    Dec 26 2025
    Storytelling is as natural as breathing, and we're always doing it...all day long! Long before there was spoken or written language, our cave dweller ancestors grunted and mimed their adventures around the fire pit. You and I did something similar as infants, with gurgles and gestures, long before we had language.
