Episode 2: A bit about me -- My friend John Chao interviews me (and he asks great questions~)
I really enjoyed how The Perspective Maintenance's John Chao interviewed meand I hope you do too.
Here are the takeaways:
In this episode, I got to talk about my journey to love from a time of deep grief.
The takeaways are:
1. Choose love over fear. (When someone approaches you in anger or fear,
try to return love and watch the interaction change!)
2. Feel your feelings, let them run their course, don't stuff them down
they don't go away).
3. Spend time in nature, with animals, in quiet to stay in balance.
--I talk about how a therapist helped me come out of complicated grief and that
helped me in small ways to be a better mom.
--I talk about how a book changed my approach to life: "Love is Letting Go of Fear,"
by Gerald G. Jampolsky. One of the book's main teachings is a simple one – you cannot
feel fear and love at the same time. So, it's important to start to choose love over fear.
Thank you to John Chao for giving your time and hearing my thoughts so respectfully.
You are a gift.
You can find John at Perspective Maintenance whereever you get your podcasts!
So excited to share my new original music composed by my son Brendan Talian. The piece is called "Saturday Sway" and I think it's just right for The Storied Human. Many thanks Brendan!
