Into the Living Room: Behind-the-Scenes of a Lifelong LearnerIt's Beyond Me: An UpdateIf you know anything about me, you know that I have felt awkward for most of my life. I still do to be honest. For so long I felt like I was born without life’s operating instructions, like I was missing the manual or something. But as I grew up, I realized that, you know what, most people felt like me, too, at least at some point in their life, maybe not now. But when I was younger, oh my goodness, I thought I was the only one. I think that’s why I’ve alwa...2024-05-1711 min

Into the Living Room: Behind-the-Scenes of a Lifelong LearnerWelcome to Into the Living Room: Behind-the-Scenes of a Lifelong LearnerI initially started this audio project 11 years ago. At that time, it was called, The Firebelly Chronicles. It was a video podcast where I interviewed people like author Julia Cameron (The Artist's Way) and owner and founder, Dave Dahl (Dave's Killer Bread). I had always admired people (and still do) who had a fire in their belly and the courage to bring that fire to life. 🔥 After my son was born, The Firebelly Chronicles evolved into Winging It. And as I reflect on the creative decision to evolve the project into Winging It it makes sense. When Winging I...2023-10-3001 min

Into the Living Room: Behind-the-Scenes of a Lifelong LearnerMidlife | Part 1: IntroductionWhen I started Winging It back in 2015, my son Blaze was just two years old. At that time, I wanted to document becoming a parent while working full-time, all while attempting to do all the things.

Into the Living Room: Behind-the-Scenes of a Lifelong LearnerDream On, Part TwoIn the second part of our deep dive into dream-making, I sit down with Dan Pilver who is one of the founders and owners of Magic Number. If you’re not familiar with Dan’s company, Magic Number creates craft-brewed, cannabis-infused beverages—which are all handmade in Bend, Oregon. Dan is someone who started his company while at the same time working a full-time job. I'm continually inspired by individuals like Dan because people like Dan are examples of creators and business owners who ultimately find the way, the time, and the drive to turn their dream into th...2019-06-0735 min

Into the Living Room: Behind-the-Scenes of a Lifelong LearnerDream On, Part OneI believe we all have dreams within us that wish to be birthed. Dreams that are tapping their feet annoyed, exclaiming, “I’m waiting. What’s the hold-up? Hey you, do you not see me over here?” Sometimes we use excuses like, “I don’t have enough time” or “I’m too busy” or “I don’t have the financial resources to make it happen” — excuses that only postpone our dreams from becoming our reality. Shannon, founder of Shannon Lee Strategy, and my guest on this podcast episode, knows firsthand how to turn a dream into a reality. After years of doin...2019-05-2437 min

Into the Living Room: Behind-the-Scenes of a Lifelong LearnerLearning to Lean Into the UniverseIn this episode, we re-visit what exactly Winging It means. Winging It is about preparing your heart-out and putting your full self out there. Then, it’s about surrendering it all. It’s about giving your all, and then, letting it all go. It’s about working your hardest, and then leaving the rest up to the universe, to God, to the cosmos, to nature—to whatever you may believe in. Winging It is about living your life full-out even when you don’t have all the answers, or know exactly what you are doing. It means having fai...2019-04-3015 min

Into the Living Room: Behind-the-Scenes of a Lifelong LearnerLife in a StraitjacketBeneath all the labels and stories we tell ourselves, about ourselves, is where I believe, we will find who we truly really are—and this is where we will find true happiness. To me, a straitjacket is a great metaphor that represents human beings living beneath (and absorbed in) their labels, stories, and the accompanying pressures, expectations, and beliefs that are associated with the labels and stories we attach ourselves to throughout our lives. Since discovering this metaphor, I find myself constantly challenging myself with how I define myself—what labels and stories I use when...2018-02-0209 min

I've always been one who is up for the ride, but for this ride I've really had to buckle-up. I have moved a lot in my life, and I’ve changed jobs before, but for some reason moving with my husband and son has completely put a different kind of spin on everything—a spin that has not stopped, where I still feel like I am hovering above our new life. I look down and see all the pieces and players...2017-01-0209 min

Into the Living Room: Behind-the-Scenes of a Lifelong LearnerWinging It: Episode 5: We are all Winging ItMy son has been my greatest teacher. Being his mother has pushed me into myself – all my issues, my unrealized dreams, and upon his arrival, reminded me of all that I was before he came into my life, as if I was looking at myself outside myself. The more I grow in motherhood, the more I learn about life. I know these learnings would have made their way to me via a different route had I not decided to become a mother, but I am extremely grateful it was my son who dropped them on my...2015-12-3010 min
