54. Wisdom at the Crossroads with Amanda Onchulenko

Sometimes it can take a drastic event to force us to stop and take stock of what's most important to us. Maybe we finally slow down and take more time to be present with our loved ones. But what if you could start thinking this way without experiencing a major event?   My guest today, Amanda Onchulenko, is a painter and textile artist, author of the book Wisdom at the Crossroads and podcast host. During the episode, she shares with us how the writing of her book started, the practices that inspired it and a reminder to take the time to be present in the moment. We also speak about acknowledging all of the accomplishments along life's journey as well as tools and practices to deal with bumps in the road.   Amanda and I would love to know what you connected with from today's episode and what creative outlet you are awakening. Share today's episode on Instagram and be sure to tag us - @mandartcanada and @Whitneywoman!   Here's what to look forward to in today's episode:   · The drastic event that changed Amanda's life   · How the writing of a book started and the practices that inspired it   · Advice for taking the time for yourself, even when you feel like you're juggling all the things   · How to take time to be present in the moment   · Understanding why Amanda's voice is most clear in color   · Acknowledging all of the accomplishments along life's journey   · Tools and practices to deal with bumps in the road   · Getting into a flow state   Connect with Amanda :   IG: @mandartcanada Website: https://www.mandart.ca/ Podcast: Wisdom at the Crossroads Book: Wisdom at the Crossroads Mindful Mandart Moment: Process and Practice Podcast Episode   Connect with Whitney:   IG: @Whitneywoman Website: www.myelectricideas.com
