Home-what is it for you?
Send us a textHome—What is it for you?Delbert and Hess join together for their 54th podcast and talk about “home”. What is it?—it’s not always a structure, it’s a place where your heart is. A place where you belong, where you connect. Delbert is taking a book from her childhood today to her niece’s baby shower, We Were Tired of Living in the House, by Liesel Moak Skorpen. Four small children, a dog, and a cat move into a tree, pond, cave and seashore, but something unusual happens to make them move...

Self Care
Send us a textSelf Care—This is a previously recorded podcast.Hess and Delbert talk about how important self care is for our lives. We have to listen to ourselves. Delbert hit the “wall” after a very busy time, as she was walking her GrandDogs down the alley. She went home, cooked herself some “soul food” (for her)—Linguini and clams, and binge watched her feel good series, Ugly Betty. She did her laundry-returned calls and emails, and went to bed at 5:30. After the following day, she was recharged.Self Care is so import...

Neurotransmitters--the Brain Bridge to Possibility!
Send us a textNeurotransmitters—the Brain Bridge to PositivityHess and Delbert feel energized when they talk about possibility. They wanted to follow up and talk about it more after last week’s Podcast. In their Sunday chat this morning, Hess explains how we can move from trauma to resiliency. We can use the neuroplasticity of the brain to rewire and get out of the “ditch”. Trauma lives in the limbic area of the brain and stays there if it is not processed in a healthy way. The trauma lives on in the re-triggering with anythin...

Naive is NOT a negative, naive means you have t...

Run Towards It!
Send us a textEpisode 47! Run Towards It!Hess and Delbert were inspired this week by the passing of the mother of one of their classmates from Sacred Heart. Maureen Walker was a musician, a teacher and a family counselor in Louisville Kentucky—also she was Delberts senior year cheerleading coach. She had a private practice in Louisville for 40 years. She would see a need, and fill it. It is what all of us must do. One step at a time. We take what we have experienced, oftentimes something that is very difficult, and we move f...

Possibilities--Moving into a Better Place
Send us a textThis morning on our Sunday chat, Hess and Delbert add onto last weeks podcast that was on Imagination—what can come next is possibilities. When we sit with what is, and are able to feel it, we can think of new ways things could be. We can see opportunities of changing something, doing something new, or even just looking at it in a new way. It begins with wondering, being with it, focusing, then moving into creativity. We change things for ourselves in our own personal world. We can change things that would be good...
