A Goodbye...
The time has come for me to say goodbye. Sounds like I am starting the song from The Sound of Music, but I am not. Wildflower, the time has come for me to hang up my Exmormonology & Soul Searching podcast. What a ride it has been. I really never thought I would say this goodbye. I hope you will...

A Life Created From Desire, Not Defense
Inspired by Mandy Patinkin's famous Princes Bride quote, this episode explores what it means to live after the struggle, after the heartache, after healing. "I've been in the revenge business so long, now that it is over, I don't know what to do with the rest of my life." What happens when the...

Worry & Rumination Pt. 2

Worry & Rumination
Worry and Rumination are part of being human, but they can also keep us stuck in endless loops of "what ifs" and "should haves." In this episode, I explore the subtle differences between worry (future focused) and rumination (past focused), why our brains default to these patterns and how they...

A Meditation: Quieting The Noise
Hey Wildflower, As we move into September, I want to help you lessen your worry and ruminating ways. It is so easy to get caught up in worry and then ruminate over all the things that can go wrong in life. This way of handling your life's worries often becomes a habit. It is possible to break…

The In Between PT. 2

The In Between

Self Confidence & The Model
