There’s a deep wisdom that reveals itself when we walk in nature—especially when we give ourselves the time and space to walk long distances. In this episode, I share some of the powerful lessons I learned while leading a group of women on a 115 km trek along the Camino in southern France. This was more than a physical journey—it was a soulful one that reminded me of the importance of surrender, the value of discomfort, and the beauty of simply holding space for others. I also reflect on the parable of the moth and the cocoon, a story that perfectly illustrates why we need to struggle sometimes in order to grow.

In this episode, I share how my understanding of prayer transformed from a childhood ritual into a sacred, soul-nourishing relationship—one that began unexpectedly through quiet walks in nature. What started as stress relief slowly became heartfelt conversations with God, and those “God Walks” opened me to a deeper sense of peace, clarity, and connection. Join me as I explore how prayer evolved from obligation to dialogue, and how listening to the still, small voice within has become my most powerful spiritual practice. If you’re seeking more meaning, more love, or simply a moment of connection, this episode is for you.

In today’s episode, I share a powerful lesson that first found me as a young actress and has shaped every chapter of my life since: the idea that by pursuing our dreams, we uncover the path we’re truly meant to walk. Life rarely follows a straight line—there are twists, crossroads, and unexpected turns—but I’ve learned that when we slow down, tune in, and listen to that quiet inner voice, our soul will always guide us forward. If you’re standing at a crossroads or wondering what’s next, this episode will help you reconnect with your heart’s desires, trust your inner wisdom, and take that next inspired step toward a life that feels truly aligned and alive. And if you’d like to explore this journey more deeply, I invite you to check out my book, Whispers of the Soul—a heartfelt guide to tuning into the wisdom within.

In this heartfelt episode, I open up an important conversation about mental health, inspired by the story of a friend’s brother who silently struggled with depression. Together, we’ll explore five common myths around mental health, particularly how they affect men, and replace them with empowering truths. I share parts of my own journey through depression and healing, offer tools like journaling that supported me, and highlight resources like HeadsUpGuys.org. If you or someone you love is struggling, please know you are not alone — and that healing, hope, and self-love are possible. Let’s walk this inward path together, break the stigma, and shine a light for others.

In today’s episode, I invite you to slow down with me, take a deep breath, and rediscover the simple joys that surround you every day. I’ll be reading Chapter 10 from Whispers of the Soul—“Joy Spotting: The Art of Noticing What Brings You Joy.” So often, we search for joy in grand, sweeping changes, but true joy is found in the small, everyday moments—if we choose to notice them. Through a personal story and gentle guidance, I’ll show you how the practice of joy spotting can shift your perspective, raise your energy, and bring more lightness into your life. Settle in and let these words remind you that joy is always present, waiting to be seen and felt.
