Connecting with Your Living Blueprint ~ Guest, Wendy Beth

Let's Talk Wellness - with Host, Mara James

A Living Blueprint is a navigational tool that we both discover and design from the truth of WHO we are in order to create a life of meaning and purpose. This week, Mara welcomes Wendy Beth for a conversation about her journey and her mission to help people connect with their own living blueprint and live from the power of being present in every moment.

Wendy Beth keeps her promises. She is a fellow traveler, speaker, #1 International Bestselling author, and Soul Guide. Her purpose and passion are to help others work through confusion, loss, and suicidal ideation–issues she faced and overcame, eventually creating her happily ever after!

After uncovering the dark lies she was raised with, she found empowered truth to live from. She intuitively discovered and then further designed a unique Living Blueprint, which she lives daily and now shares with others through the book Living Blueprint - A True Story. Five Principles to Creating an Authentic Joy-filled Life.

Utilizing her family science degree, Wendy Beth offers her own real, raw story and a powerful, practical 40-day journey to help you gain traction toward what you want most in your life. Her work guides others into a world of choice, safety, belonging, and unapologetic authenticity, ultimately allowing them to create their own happily ever after.

Wounds are something we all carry a collection of, and do our best to keep them tucked away. But what if our wounds offer us something powerful beyond measure? This week, Mara welcomes Sussi Mattsson to share her incredible story and her mission to share the transformative power of turning personal pain into wisdom.

Empowering Mother-Daughter Connections ~ Guest, Myra Hollis

Let's Talk Wellness - with Host, Mara James

Connection is a vital part of our development and sustenance, yet it can be really challenging especially when it comes to mother-daughter connection. This week, Mara welcomes Myra Hollis for a conversation about empowering mothers and daughters to build strong, healthy connections, and some tools she created to support them do that.

Ms. Hollis received her Master’s in Counseling from San Diego State University. She specializes in helping individuals navigate stressful transitions in life and improve their self-esteem through the use of narrative therapy, trauma-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and solution-focused approaches. She believes therapy serves as a safe space for clients to practice how they want to approach their life outside of session.

Myra strives to provide culturally-affirming counseling. She is the author of self-guided journals (Senses of Self & Let’s Heal) and co-creator of the Black Women Healing Pod, a podcast devoted to exploring topics related to the lives of Black women. She has focused on her recent business of ABC conversations to help facilitate more conversations between mothers and daughters.
