  • S17 Ep189: The Interview: Momoko Uno ~ Magic in a Time of Covid
    Jul 15 2024
    My guest this week is AMAZING!!! Besides for being a Functional Medicine Doctor, she is also an Integrative Medicine Specialist as well as a Doctor of Oriental Medicine! We talk acupuncture, the heart, what our hearts are trying to tell us and WHY, OH WHY it is so very essential to listen to this organ nicknamed THE EMPEROR in Oriental Medicine! Sigh...you know I love a good conversation about acupuncture, grief and our hearts...and just how everything in our bodies is so very connected!

    Momoko tells a poignant story this week of needing to be at the bedside of her Mother during Covid and how, at the very last instant, she was able to get where she just had to be! The story is simple, profound and should remind us all that everything conspires to get us where we are needed, we just need to NEVER GIVE UP!

    Please do check out her Wellness Center's website here. And check out Momoko's book on Amazon, here.

    If you'd like to take a gander at my YouTube channel...where you can get a glimpse behind the BSB curtain, click here!

    REMEMBER TO RATE AND REVIEW...AND SHARE THE HECK OUT OF THIS POD OF MINE!

    Your bit of beauty? A quotation from Rumi, specifically the first one on this page. Speaking of hearts and listening to what the Emperors of our bodies are telling us-this quotation says it all. Now all we need to do is listen.

  • S17 Ep188: The Interview: Mickie Kennedy ~ The Real Estate Agent/Guardian Angel
    Jul 10 2024
    Mickie tells a story of sorrow, one of grief, and indeed there is a TRIGGER WARNING for this episode...

    After a childhood of abuse and growing up in a community that seemingly didn't care, Mickie decided to take his own life one night. What happened that evening is completely dumbfounding and should convince us all that angels are all around us, and sometimes they sell real estate! I'll let Mickie tell the tale but until then, here is his Insta, where you can do a deeper dive into this inspiring human being! This poet and creative recites one of his works, "Vigilance" at the end of the episode. Make sure not to miss it!

    Thank you to everyone who listens and please do remember, RATINGS AND REVIEWS ARE SO IMPORTANT! If you like what you hear, please do me a solid and leave a little rating!

    Do check out the new YouTube channel...it's where you can find my guests IRL!! (you can actually see their bright and shining faces for real!)

    And consider supporting this pod on Patreon! Every little bit helps!

    Your bit of beauty this episode? This YouTube on the Rare Ghost Orchid and it's really special, really specific pollinator- the Darwin's Moth, (or Giant Hawkmoth) which has the longest tongue in the known world at up to 11.2" long! The orchid is so bizarre and was observed to have such a challenging pollination space that Darwin suggested that an insect or animal MUST exist that had an exceptionally long tongue! And YES! Hazzahhh! they finally observed this mysterious insect doing it's thang and pollinating the heck out of The Ghost Orchid! A perfect example of the scientific process and how to prove a theory...is right here in this video! Be sure to check it out! (and I think it's beautiful how nature is so complex and strange!)

  • S17 Ep187: The Interview: Denise Dielwart ~ Death is Just a Doorway!
    Jul 6 2024
    Denise has a potent story this week-one of incredible loss, deep abiding affection and what happens when even Death is forced to lie down in the face of a most powerful LOVE.

    Denise met her husband when she was young...and in fact, couldn't stand him at first! But over time something magical happened and soon the two of them were inseparable! Cue the marriage, the babies, the grand-babies, and then, one horrific day, the death of Maarten, her husband, at work. It was then that Denise came to understand that she would have to reformat and rebuild her life-all on her own.

    But then her husband came calling, and in the face of all of her grief, Denise suddenly came to realize that when love is as strong as hers was with her husband? Well, even Death cannot stop it! From visitations to butterflies, from magical interactions to the natural world at work, it has been one miracle after the other, and Denise is left understanding that Death is simply a doorway, and one which is easily crossed by our loved ones. To check out what Denise is doing in the world with her work around grief, click here.

    To support me and my podcast and all the light and joy it brings to the world, click here! AND DON'T FORGET TO LEAVE A RATING AND A REVIEW IF YOU LIKE WHAT YOU HEAR!

    And babies, please follow my YouTube! It's another sweet way to check out what my guests look like in their shiny lives!

    Here is your bit of beauty this week-the Japanese Website for Forest Bathing, otherwise known as Shinrin-yoku. I was reading a book on Forest Bathing this week and all the science around what it does for your immune system, your mood, depression and general health and I thought..."everyone needs to know about this!" If only we could all spend a few hours in the woods every week, we would all feel so much better (on every level!) Check out the website and see if your soul sings while reading it! Perhaps all we really do need to do is go and hug a tree!

  • S17 Ep186: The Interview: Micayla Deardorff ~ France! You Sneaky Country You! (and Collective Effervescence!)
    Jul 1 2024
    This week I interview Micayla, who herself has a very fine podcast called PhilosoSHE! Be sure to check it out when you have a moment...BUT, back to Micayla! She is an artist, podcaster, photographer, song writer as well as recovering "cult" member. And she is still unpacking just how this religious group influenced and shaped her, and still does, in some ways... The thing to know about Micayla though, is, she has the biggest and most open heart you could ever imagine! So while she continues to wrestle with her upbringing and the world of her childhood she faces life wholeheartedly-and with incredible bravery, curiosity and generosity of spirit! (You're going to love meeting her, I promise you!!)

    She tells two stories of miracles as far as I'm concerned this week-one, what happened when she traveled to France to do some mission work...oh, France, how you do get inside people's skins and change them forever you naughty minx! And two, she talks about collective effervescence, which is NOT a band name, but a collective experience we should all have more often!!

    Head on over to my YouTube channel for the "movie" version of our convo! You can see what her fabulous face looks like! AND, please do consider sponsoring me on Patreon! This little labor of love does cost money, and any sort of support from you would be so appreciated! I LOVE ALL OF YOU THAT DO SUPPORT ME ALREADY BABIES!! Click here to support me on Patreon!

    I am ever so grateful for each and every one of you and the love that you bring to the show!!

    Here is your bit of beauty this week-a glimpse of French countryside...and a village that I traveled through as I walked the Camino de Santiago. First, here is the Wiki! Second: here is the beauty! You won't regret discovering a little bit more about this delightful and historic village!
