A Podcast Announcement

What is to come in 2023 for Grieving Voices? Tune in to this episode to find out all of the details.

Before you listen, I want to share that this episode came to be after months and months of stewing and contemplation, trying to logically come to a resolution of what to do about Grieving Voices. Should I stop podcasting? Take a sabbatical? I wasn't sure, and the answer certainly was not coming to me quickly, at least one that felt entirely right. And I realize that's because I was solely relying more on logic and less on my heart.

So, with focused attention and intention, I went on a silent retreat for 15 minutes (i.e., meditating without any background sound). I set an intention going into it, and the answers to the questions came to me quickly and effortlessly. If you've never tried this, I highly recommend it. I've meditated many times; however, setting an intention first adds an intangible, powerful energy to the process.

Moving forward, I will be working on a project to bring how grievers turned their pain into purpose in a way that serves humanity and society as a whole. They have created a non-profit, not-for-profit, foundation, organization, or form of technology. These episodes will be "Pain to Purpose" episodes. The intention is to share these resources I find with you while bringing hope in what's possible when we embrace the pain and mold it into something new. Doing so can be so healing, not only for yourself but also for others on a bigger scale. These are stories of creating positive ripples despite the grief.

GUEST REQUEST: If you have turned your pain into purpose by creating a non-profit, not-for-profit organization, foundation, or technology and are willing to share your personal story of the journey to doing so, please apply to be a guest!  

Another aspect of the podcast moving forward will be to follow up with previous guests from the past two and a half years in "Where Are They Now" episodes.

And finally, shorts on answering listeners' questions in "My A to Your Q" episodes. I'm not committing to an episode every Tuesday, but if there is a new episode, it will still go live on Tuesdays.

 Also, listen to this week's episode, where I share some behind-the-scenes life stuff with a few lessons thrown in for good measure. I ask a question, too, that is perfect for a New Year episode!

I hope you stick with me if you've been around a while or are a new listener. I'm excited to shake things up for the podcast in 2023! Let's create some 2023 magic! ✨
