    <title>WHERE TO NOW?</title>
    <description>A podcast that will focus on the effects of past experiences; emotional trauma and redemption. Stories which shape us, ruin us and bring about change. Every guest will have an opportunity to extract insight from an experience that ruined perception, a recollection of what shaped their journey and finally their moment of –– where to now?</description>

      <title>Building Legacy, With Love.</title>
      <description><![CDATA[What does it mean to be present in your body? To make meaningful connections and long lasting relationships? What does it take to build? To sustain the energy you put forth and what do you insist in terms of need when asking for it back?  

On this episode, we touch on the importance of building connection as a code for legacy.  We emphasize ways in which we are required to show up for the energy we want out of love and ultimately out of life.
