The word Self-Care has become a mainstream buzzword, and, in many ways, I have seen it become something that I don’t believe is its original meaning, though many would disagree with me.

Reclamation of Oneself, my theme for this conversation is with two of my dearest friends I invited back, Mariam Hannon and Lindsay Styck. We talk and laugh about how to take back - reclaim - yourself and really take a look at where you want to expand in this new year. It’s about creating a path and the steps that meet your needs, desires and dreams, not anyone else’s. This banter is about what questions to ask yourself, what steps to take and how to move forward with these intentions as your guide this year, and how to be kinder to yourself through the whole process.

I am back with a lighthearted banter with my friend and restaurant owner, Heather Behm, around Food Pt. 2. I wanted to have a conversation around meal preparation for the day and week, food and flavor combinations, understanding spices and overall making it the approach to cooking and preparing food easier and fun. I want people to let go of their fears around cooking the absolute right or best tasting meal and explore new flavors as well as learn to try and try again because it only gets better the more you keep at it.

Spring is here for sure in my part of the world & it feels lovely!
As you head into warmer weather in the northern hemisphere of the world, introducing more movement, particularly outside, becomes the norm for everyone. I decided to have one episode of the podcast dedicated to a few types of movement that I feel anyone can and probably already has tried on. I have a banter with three of my friends, Michelle Bobier, Peter Norman and Kathy Pace, around Qi Gong, Tai Chi and Yoga. I know I will have more of these.

GOOD DAY. It’s the week of Christmas when the countdown of chaotic last-minute shopping, cooking, baking and final preparations take place no matter how you intend to celebrate this year or choose not to.
I find it to be rather fortuitous that I am posting this today as I manage a personal emergency situation (non-Covid) and as Jean is doing the same herself.
This last of 2020 Marlo’s Conversations with Friends is about PRAYER as WELL-Being and it’s not your usual conversation around the topic. I am deeply honored to be able to share this dialogue with a friend I hold in a very high, sacred space – Native American Wisdom Healer and Leader, Jean Reddemann. Jean and I have a really thoughtful conversation around what Prayer really means, what it really looks like and how you can make it a part of your every moment without even realizing it.
