Podcast #1 - beginnings

In this week’s episode, I talk all about the magic of beginnings. How perfect especially since I am leaping into beginning this podcast as well as this epic community.  I dive into how when things seem scary we don't want to start, but then we do it anyway.  I also share about why I choose to connect a community to this podcast and how important it is to say "good enough" and take the leap. 

This is just the beginning and I can't wait to see what unfolds.

taking a leap

There is a path in front of you, always.  You may not know where the path is leading, but you need to trust the importance of taking steps forward.  If you don’t take any steps you stay exactly where you are.  Yes, it’s comfortable.  You know your surroundings.  You can pretty much anticipate what is going to happen next.

But when you follow the unknown you open the door to possibility.  You don’t know what may happen, but that is really all part of the journey.  Setting your intentions then giving life space to unfold.

Today I am taking a bold step forward.  I am diving into two dreams that have been living in my heart for a very long time. 

#1 - This is something I have been longing for, needing, wanting.  But I couldn't find it no matter how hard I looked.  I thought if I was feeling this so deeply, there had to be others like me out there feeling the exact same thing therefore I decided to take the leap and create it. 

Welcome to the Soul Circle Community

A FREE online community space for creative hearts.
A place where you can show up exactly as you are. 
A space to share stories, ideas, and inspiration to unearth the inner light that is burning inside you.

Because we all need a place where we can gather.  A place to be seen and heard.  And one thing I know for certain is that we aren't meant to take the journey alone.  We need one another.  

I invite you to join me in an online community space hosted on Mighty Networks. A platform off of social media that has it's own app and provides the space to connect more deeply with one another.  

I intentionally choose to do this off of social media to eliminate some of the background noise and have a place where we can all land that feels a little bit like home. 

 Each month will be centered around a particular theme. This will provide the opportunity to dive in a little bit deeper.  There will be weekly questions, secret missions, an opportunity to celebrate with one another, and a weekly podcast.  

#2 - Yup, that’s right!  I am starting a podcast.  I am leaning into sharing my voice in a whole different way and leaping into the great expanse which is the podcasting world.  The Soul Circle podcast is designed to delight the inner fire that is burning inside you and encourage you to step into your unique gifts as you unleash your authentic self. 

 Stating a podcast is scary and exhilarating all rolled into one.  It’s wild.  It feels right to step up to the challenge and it is also teaching me to lean into that unknown path and see what will unfold.  

 You will be able to listen in on all the usual podcasting platforms starting today with the Trailer episode.  

I am looking forward to being able to dive in deeper with you.  To connect, engage and grow …. Together.  Can’t wait to spend time with you over in the community space.

I want to say yes to

I want to say YES to sinking into joy and not worrying about what others think of me. As the saying goes;

“dance as if no one is watching”

I want to say YES to that unbridled freedom that comes from unlocking the door. The door I have bolted shut in front of my heart and soul so that only invited guests could see what was behind it.

I want to to give in to the joy like it is something I deserve because gosh darn it, I deserve it!

Laughing, singing, dancing.

Why do I hold back? When I’m at a red light why do I stop singing? Why do I hide my JOY?

Joy isn’t meant to be in the shadows. It is something to share, to savor. It is contagious

It’s time to say yes, a whole-hearted yes to JOY.

Writing Prompt

What are you ready to say yes to? Don’t hold back? Grab your pen and paper and put it down. Putting something down helps put it into motion. It’s time to put it into motion

I am saying yes to ….

Not sure where to begin? Start by making a list. A list is a perfect entryway to getting something down on the page.

Let’s Get Together {virtually}

The prompt above was from the Write Together Community class that I host each Monday night. It’s a space for people to come together and spill words onto the page. No prior writing experience is required. Come and join us!
