The Power of Personal Story

irene@msg2mkt.com (Msg2Mkt, LLC) — Wed, 11 Dec 2024 22:25:23 +0000

Telling stories from your own life is a wonderful way to connect with your true self and find your spark. In this episode, I share a humdinger of story from my life. The story itself is pretty interesting, but I can attest to the power and peacefulness of having shared it. Perhaps this is your cue to write about your real life...and maybe even share some of your stories in public forums. It's in the stories we share about ourselves that others can find healing and hope.

On the occasion of my 18th wedding anniversary, I invite you to listen in on the story of how I came to meet my husband. Nearly a decade after a divorce and through lots of growth and self-discovery, I was granted a beautiful love-story-with-a-twist. Ya gotta hear how my prayer that the person I would marry "has eyes to see me fully" was so cleverly answered.

Surprise! Being Disillusioned is a Good Thing

irene@msg2mkt.com (Msg2Mkt, LLC) — Wed, 29 May 2024 13:32:02 +0000

“Hooray! I’ve been disillusioned!”- said nobody ever. Well, until now! Welcome to my public relations campaign for “disillusion” and “disillusionment.” It’s high time we redefine what it means to be disillusioned. Rather than focus on the disappointment of disillusionment, let’s zone in on the healthy outcomes on the other side of the let-downs. To be disillusioned is to wake up—to snap out of a mirage. From a wakeful state, we can move forward and make progress. Any disappointment we experience is a small price to pay in exchange for real-life opportunities.

“You must never confuse faith that you will prevail in the end—which you can never afford to lose—with the discipline to confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever they might be.”
- Admiral James Stockdale

Are You Lonely for YOU? Seek Vibes Not Tribes

What if today's epidemic of loneliness stems from people lacking connections with themselves? In this world of nonstop inputs and interruptions, it can be challenging to be in touch with our true selves, hear our own voices over the chatter and know what we honestly, deeply need and desire.

Being With Not In - The Key to Emotional Maturity for Empaths

irene@msg2mkt.com (Msg2Mkt, LLC) — Tue, 14 May 2024 05:00:00 +0000

We’ve all been there. Someone we love is struggling, and we feel it deeply, as if we’re in the situation ourselves. But we’re actually less helpful when we’re that close. Being with, not in, things with those we care about lets us be more objective and caring in ways that can help the others make progress. This is even true in relationship to ourselves! Being the curious, compassionate observer—for others and ourselves—is the key to emotional maturity.
