Finding the Glimmer!

Today's show is focused on the process that we should invite ourselves to honor when we may be in a season of waiting. Some may call this process "procrastination" but I offer another perspective to consider.  Tune in for a deeper dive on this topic and to receive tips on discovering when it is time to move and why waiting does not equate to procrastination. There is usually a deeper meaning connected to why you may not be getting started. "Be Still, and know that I AM GOD" (Psalm 46:10)

Today’s show  “GOOD MORNING GORGEOUS!“Good Morning Gorgeous” a new anthem for all of us by Mary J. Blige is powerfully resonating with so many of us.  Sister/Auntie Mary came out here telling all of our business with such beautiful transparency and truth through expressing her own journey. Today I bring focus to my interpretation of the message in this song and why I believe so many of us are releasing loving others more than we love ourselves AND coming into the awareness that the person we are looking to love us unconditionally, the person we are waiting for-has been waiting for us…”the one” reflecting back at us in the mirror. Mary J. Blige wrote “Good Morning Gorgeous” with D’Mile, H.E.R., Lucky Daye, and Tiara Thomas. H.E.R. also produced the single with D’Mile and contributes guitar and background vocals. She/They understood the assignment...and we are so grateful!

Closure:  finality; a letting go of what once was. Finding closure implies a complete acceptance of what has happened and an honoring of the transition away from what's finished to something new. Today's episode focuses on the importance of healthy closure in relationships and other situations in our lives when we know it is time to move on.  "Closure happens right after you accept that letting go and moving on is more important than projecting a fantasy of how the relationship could have been."

Today I returned home to the devastating news of 2 children in our district whose lives tragically ended, allegedly by their mother. Our hearts, thoughts and prayers are with the families and loved ones of these children and we stand in mourning with our school district community and our community at large. There are no words to express how deeply the heartbreaking loss of these children has impacted many. Many questions have already come to the surface around mental health, support and so many other layers unfolding. As we remember this month being Mental Heath Awareness Month, I am sharing a replay of a two part show focused on mental health awareness and #breakingthestigma. For both, I am joined a team of clinicians who are experts in this area. They offer tips, resources and support while sharing their experiences and how we can individually and collectively destigmatize mental health. May we take care of ourselves and look out for the well being of others who may need support. Maybe someone today nears to receive this.

As we remember this month being Mental Heath Awareness Month, I am sharing a replay of a two part show focused on mental health awareness and #breakingthestigma. For both, I am joined a team of clinicians who are experts in this area. They offer tips, resources and support while sharing their experiences and how we can individually and collectively destigmatize mental health. Dr. Sandra Vazquez is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor serving in private practice.  Dr. Vazquez can provide support via 585-299-2020.

Today I returned home to the devastating news of 2 children in our district whose lives tragically ended, allegedly by their mother. Our hearts, thoughts and prayers are with the families and loved ones of these children and we stand in mourning with our community at large. There are no words to express how deeply the heartbreaking loss of these children has impacted many.

(Replay) Self Care in uncertain Times (Part 2) #breakthestigma #MHAMonth

As we reflect on a day dedicated to Moms and those women who have mothered us, we know how very layered the role of "mom" is and the abundance of rewards and challenges on the journey. Today we take a closer look at Mother's Day from my own perspective as a mother and daughter....Motherhood is a choice you make every day, to put someone else's happiness and well-being ahead of your own. To teach the hard lessons, to do the right thing even when you're not sure what the right thing is......and to forgive yourself over and over again for doing everything wrong.-Donna Bell
