    Episode 71 – The One with the Worried Wildhearts

    Episode 71 – The One with the Worried Wildhearts

    Today, we're meeting 10 sensitive worried children who are super stressed out with life and looking for peace, fun and friendship. Each one is facing a struggle or challenge that is giving them lots of worries and big scary feelings. They've kindly agreed to share their stories with you. I believe that when we share our stories it’s comforting to know that we’re not the only one. We’re not alone and there is nothing wrong with us. There is definitely nothing wrong with you! I wonder if you can see yourself in one or more of their stories. Have a listen and let me know.

    Smiley Shout Out – A Special Message for Tricky Times

    Smiley Shout Out – A Special Message for Tricky Times

    You can do anything even when life gets tricky. Tricky times (hello Coronavirus), tricky things (starting something new or doing something for the first time) and I guess we could probably add tricky people into the mix. Life is full of trickiness, but when we believe in ourselves and we believe that we can handle anything life throws our way, it feels less scary and more peaceful. As the drama of the Corona Crazy unfolds, I want to help you feel as peaceful as possible.
