I really hit it off with my guest this week, Stacey Isaacs. Stacey has gone through many career transitions - from courtroom attorney, to chef, to writer/editor/author, to now owning and running The Harvest Inn, a bed & breakfast in wine country on the North Fork of Long Island, with her husband. Clearly we had lots to chat about. 

Stacey also has a Masters degree in Oriental Medicine/Herbs and a license in Acupuncture. As she joked, some people think this diversity is interesting while others just think she has the attention-span of a gnat. LOL! But I love her perspective on this constant desire to learn. She says: “My best life began after 40 and I get so frustrated that not all women know how to do this -- it's not hard, you just need the information.”

She authored “The Chinese Medicine Cookbook” because she’s passionate about helping heal people with food. She put all of her knowledge together - foods, herbs, and supplements - and has...

This week’s interview is with Morgyn Danae, who refers to her past self as a “wounded healer." Now she uses the experience of her own self-healing from childhood trauma-based physical ailments and mental illness, in combination with her professional studies and training to encourage & teach others.

Morgyn’s personal experiences led her to be a Somatic Recovery Coach & Divine Feminine Guide who specializes in dance, core wellness, trauma recovery, and conscious performance. Self-love, spiritual practice, holistic natural lifestyle, and creative expression are the foundations of her recovery toolbox which she talks about in this episode.

Morgyn moved cross-country to Southern California in 2019, bringing her 25+ years of study, practice, and personal recovery full circle in her business and art..

"Healer, heal thyself” are words Morgyn claims saved her life. Listen to this episode as she shares her journey to healing. She hopes listeners know...

Jackie has been empowering women by examining their story, extracting lies, excavating their truest self, exit with the dreams & desires, and helping them execute on their dreams & desires to experience a more fulfilled life. She believes that we can recover our own dreams and desires after the kiddos are gone and pursue them! And that we are NEVER too old!

In this interview, we talk about motherhood and being an empty nester. She told me that she was excited as a young mom to think she’d only be 40 when her daughter graduated from high school, but when the time came and all the dust settled of her daughter’s exit, she found herself not knowing what she truly wanted to do...

Emyrald and I had a great conversation. She shared how she started listening to source, her heart and her spirit and how  her gifts unfolded so that now she gets to  use those gifts to live her passion as a Spiritual Life & Manifestation Coach. 

We also talked about how she came up with her name (interesting story about spiritual alignment!) and why she packed everything up and hit the road 3 months ago and is now living a nomadic lifestyle!

Emyrald believes that the ONLY THING holding you back from everything you desire (the relationship, the money in the bank account, or the dream job) is...
