Episode 24: How My New Puppy Has Transformed My Midlife!
In this episode, I share the joy that adopting a new puppy has brought to my life, especially in light of being cooped up at home with this pandemic. He has brought love & laughter back into our home after our 15 1/2 year old Chihuahua passed away in January.
But this episode is more than just me talking because I've invited my dog trainer to join in the conversation! Yep!!! I've been getting a little help in my puppy parenting skills from The Dog Academy and its founder Sherry Nativo.
Sherry & I had fun discussing the joys and challenges that having a new puppy brings, as well as the misconceptions many dog owners have when it comes to their dog's behavior. I am so thankful to have had Sherry to help me navigate these early days with Moji, my 4 month old Pooton.
Make sure to stick around to the end when Sherry opens up about her own story of how she got into dog training 10 years ago after her mom suddenly passed away. It's a great story!!!

EP19: A Roller Derby Transformation That Brought Fitness, Friends, and New Perspectives with Barbara Dolan
Listen how Barbara "Queen B" Dolan earned her nickname as she shares her transformation from an inactive, unfit mom who was clueless when it came to skating to skating competitively for the Windy City Rollers, a roller derby league in Chicago.
After retiring from competitive skating, Barbara founded Derby Lite because she missed the friends, fun and exercise she’d found in her roller derby league.
Derby Lite brought together several adventurous friends, many of them working moms just like her, who loved the idea of roller derby but couldn’t make the time commitment or accept the risk of injury.
Derby Lite became the first-ever deliberately-safe and intentionally-fun roller skating workout based on the skills and drills of competitive women’s flat track roller derby.

EP17: How the Practice of Yoga Nidra Saved This Mom with Lane Kennedy
Lane Kennedy shares her experience with Yoga Nidra and how it saved her life a few years ago when she was ready to end it all. To Lane, the Yoga Nidra practice is the deepest, most profound, form of meditation she has yet to experience.
It has given her freedom -- freedom from overthinking, freedom to rest, and the space to allow more love into her life.
Because it has helped her so much, it's become her mission to freely share meditation with everyone. She is honored with helping others tame the mind, destress, eliminate anxiety and sleep more deeply.
