Byte Sized Blessings

Join me on the couch as we talk to people from every corner of the globe while they tell stories of magic, miracles and other events that changed EVERYTHING for them. Ever wonder what a ghost looks like? Or what surviving a shark attack means on the other side? From black dogs who accompany those who are dying to a WWII child survivor, meeting the Captain of the Canadian Unit who saved him all those decades earlier, and so much more! Unbelievable stories of connection, survival and mystery! If you want a reminder that magic abounds, stop for awhile, and stay a spell-what you hear might just change YOUR life.

Hey there friends!

I'm introducing you to Hollis Peirce this time, and to be honest, I was a little nervous before the conversation! We had tried to get together for a few months, but something always got in the way, and THEN, the timing was right, (finally) and I got to confab with this fierce and funny disability rights activist!

Besides for being an advocate for those who don't have a voice, Hollis also is...

Holly shares her story this episode - and it was all I could do to let Holly just talk! I had so many questions, but I knew if I ruined the flow, I might not hear all that she has to share. And every single miracle emerged out of her being in a coma, in the hospital, for 70 days while having COVID. During that time when she was intubated and in another realm, she had experience after experience of deceased relatives visiting h...

Thomas is a prodigy, at least that's what they told him when he was a kid! But what does a prodigy do when the rug is pulled out from under them, when they don't receive the support and understanding they need? Well, they suffer and retreat and try to understand a world that doesn't seem to have room for them to thrive. (or seem interested in even doing so...) BUT, and you knew there was a big BUT in there...Thomas has survive...

Dr. Catherine tells a charming tale of what happened at the chiropractor's office- you know how you go to a doc for one thing and then something unexpected happens? Whelp, Catherine was not expecting to hear from an ancestor who had already passed on, and the fact it involved her very funny cat is the cherry on top!

The chiropractor had no idea that he was about to change Catherine's life, and her understanding of ju...

Hello friends!

This week we are talking all about keeping promises...and how sometimes keeping those promises saves lives! Whether my guest, Lyubim, was keeping his promise to his friend on 9/11 (and that saved his life!) to taking friends out for dinner (he was so very tired, but guess what? He went and that changed someone else's life!) his stories should remind all of us that the simple act of keeping our word can ...

Lillian shares a vulnerable story this week-one in which she is the one who rises, but then, as will all hero's, she brings the treasure she has won to everyone else!

Her story is a difficult one, and might hurt your hearts, so be sure to take care of yourselves, as you listen. BUT, I think it's a public service to share stories like this because they remind all of us that we have the capacity to survive anything, and...

Holy cow what a guest I have for you this episode! Seriously, when I got a glance at just what Inna has been up to, and how she has been changing the convo around healing, inner knowing and believing in oneself, I said to myself, "RUN, DON'T WALK, to get her on the pod!

This episode is important to hear, and not only because it discusses mental illness-but because it brings to light a voice, of one who has lived with this stigma since the age of 20, and thus, there is no byte-sized offering on tap this week-I think this episode should be heard in it's entirety.

Dale is open and vulnerable this week sharing his story of mental illness and how he has suffered with schizophrenia since ...
