Connecting to a "joy state"; writing as part of the healing process; self esteem and "sexual self-esteem"; teaching your kids kindness and respect; running a zero-drama household; establishing and practicing our boundaries... A mere handful of the subjects explored in this month's podcast episode with host Emma Langford and special guest Taryn De Vere.  Joy-bringer, writer, podcaster, mother of 5, colourful fashionista... Taryn De Vere moved from Australia to Ireland in 1998 and is now a firm fixture in Ramelton, County Donegal.  Earlier this year Taryn started to share her ObjectDressChallenge on her social media channels, launching her into the stratosphere of viral fame - each day in January she chose a random object around her house and fashioned a beautiful outfit to look just like it, using whatever she could find in her undoubtedly massive wardrobe of pre-owned and thrifted gems.
