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.

Hi all!

Here is a bit more of the conversation with Scott Wells...a bit more detail about his early life, more reflections on Rosa Parks and about that really scary Ouija Board!

(and how it is so important to show up for each other, however we can!)

Welcome to the final installment of SPOOKY and Scott Wells' story of what happened one day in high school, that cemented his belief in the afterlife (as well at the Ouija Board!)!

This Day of the Dead weekend, drop down into this last episode, filled with sweetness and sorrow, with hardship and abandoned mental wards, and understand that the world of the Dead is far closer than we understand. Scott's tale is terrifyin...

Hello ghosts & goblins! Here is another re-release in our October Spooktacular...told by the lovely Holly-you remember her...world-changer, unstoppable social justice warrior, and definitely NOT the Mother of someone called Sam!

Holly very graciously allowed me to put this episode out into the world again, just in time for the season! It's a true story of thrills, chills and really, a note that home inspections (b...

Greetings everyone and welcome to this episode and my convo with the delightful Jennessee Rosenberg! She's not only funny, (unlike the fairies!) but she's also an herbalist, a trauma process facilitator, AND an artist as well! There's no doubt in my mind that Jennessee is creating beauty wherever she goes, whether that's through her free White Light Meditation (see the link below) OR, through her incredible sense of humor (see...

Welcome to the continuation of our October Spooktacular and our conversation with JV Hilliard, who was last seen on Ep. 164! JV has a special tale to tell, all about a boy named Billy, a cemetery where ghosts roam in the night and a special friendship that developed, much to everyone's dismay!

thank you for staying tuned for these spooky episodes! They have been so much fun to produce!

BOO!

MWAHAHAHAHA! (my attempt at spooky laughter, bear with me!)

Here is your weekly ghostly episode everyone! AND, another listen with my friend Amy Adams, who has the most spectacularly spooky family EVER! Amy tells these stories with bravery and the knowledge that just because people die, it doesn't mean they are gone forever! Sometimes, they come back to visit, stay for a spell, and let us know that they are fine and d...

Gloria shares a tale from her childhood this week-one where she was given a death sentence and sent to the hospital...and not expected to live! It was in the middle of the night, after the surgery, that she received her healing...and a glimpse of the majesty at the heart of the Universe. She's an author, a psychologist and a human who really desires to help all of us attain our best selves, but she especially works with men, h...

Join us as we revisit, (and I re-produce) some of our earlier guest's episodes about hauntings and ghostly visits in the middle of the night! It's been fun going back over earlier episodes and polishing them for the season, as well as jumping into Fall, and October, and all things that go bump in the night!

So please, enjoy this second offering in my Halloween extravaganza! (and don't forget to check under the bed and...

Welcome to this week's episode and my convo with Rob Bach! (and I really struggled to name this episode this week because I could have also used:

*High Fidelity Then And Always!
*The 80's Were Something Else!
*Can You Believe We Included Flock of Seagulls & Falco in One Episode? Anyone remember that oldie but goodie "Rock Me Amadeus?" Sheesh I love that song!)

BUT, really, it's all about Rob, and ...

Welcome to October dear ones!

I've decided to release a few updated bonus episodes, and revist some of the ghost and ghoulie stories that have been shared over the years! This first story comes courtesy of Norman B, guest of Ep. 140, oh so long ago! And if you remember, he shares his story of meeting a ghost called Alice!

Here's his wiki in case you want to check Norman out!

Because of some weird tech issues, the last part of Salaam's incredible interview got cut off when uploading! But that's OK, because it is allowing me to showcase her poem in it's entirety here in it's own separate little episode. It is breathtakingly beautiful and incredibly masterful. And as well, it is an incredible gift, to all of us!

Hello all!

Welcome to the SIGNS & WONDERS HOTLINE...

So...drumroll please, this sweet hotline for you to share your story, with your name or anonymously, for me to share with the world. It's another way we can all support one another in this time of stress a...

OK...I still have to pinch myself...because my guest this week was so much medicine for my heart, for my soul, and words escape me as to how to introduce her and her loveliness. Which is ironic, because Salaam Green is absolutely full of words as Birmingham, Alabama's Inaugural Poet Laureate. She is creating beauty every step she takes, reconciling the land and the soul so that each can speak to the other; and giving voice to ...

Catarina's life has been one of adventure! Not one to shy away from difficult and forbidding places, she has definitely chosen the road less traveled! Encounters with snakes, with strangers, and with the mystery that is life, have all been part and parcel of her story. She never turns away from encounter...and that has made all the difference. She's a dreamer, an author, a dragon whisperer and someone quite comfortable in limi...
