Hello my dear mid-bloomers! This is Episode 23! Next week Episode 24 is my last episode for Season One! Yay!   This podcast has been one of my dreams and I did it! I knew nothing about podcasting but I have always loved storytelling. I have always wanted to share my journey to help heal myself and others. I know, for me, all of this is in co-creation with God. We all have our own journey and no one can tell you how to travel and live it.   Today's episode focuses on why I wanted to start a podcast and become a storyteller. I also share self-care when it comes to how you choose to live your life. Next week is Episode 24, my last episode for Season One. This 24th episode is all about friendship; the good, the bad, and, the not too bad. Season Two will begin in September and there will be bonus and teaser episodes this summer. Below is some self-care advice; Give yourself permission to dream. Think about the things you are passionate about, and imagine how they could become a part of your life.Don’t try to do everything at once. Set realistic goals and take one step at a time towards achieving them.Connect with like minded people who are already living their truth or on their way. Together you will help raise each other's vibration. Just do it! Fear will always be around you just push past it, tears and all. Once you have an idea, take action. Take classes, attend seminars, and find mentors who can help you along the way.Celebrate your successes. Every step forward is a success and should be celebrated.Blessings to everyone.
