Inspire Me Forward is a series of conversations where guests from all walks of life and every corner of the world Share Their Stories. We talk about life, love, and everything in between.

We are now on Season 7 entitled:


Positive Foundations for when Life throws a Time Shift

There are times in our lives when our relationship with time changes. Sometimes it is a slow burn, sometimes a U-turn. Your perspective of time might evolve into a space where you value it more, perhaps it speeds up, or maybe it slows down. However you are affected, life does throw time shifts, and in those moments, we are called to look for positive foundations. Resources that help us hold our bearings and tend to our resiliency. Helping us stay grounded and not float away altogether.

This season, we will speak with folks who have experienced those time shifts and stayed upright through the dynamic force, the change, and the landing. We will discuss what kept them standing. What did they hold onto so they could settle into that new time perspective with a gentle heart and feet firmly on the ground?

Welcome to Season 7. Let’s talk about Time Shifts.


~*~


At Inspire Me Forward, our belief is that we inspire others when we share our stories and share a collective connection. We let each other know that they are not alone in this big, beautiful world. "The courage it takes to share one's story might be the very thing someone else needs to open their heart to a brighter tomorrow".

Episodes available on YouTube, Apple, Spotify, and here.


There are past episodes, from Episode 1, on our YouTube channel.

    In this episode, we speak with Dr. Pamela Maynard, rural North Dakota, USA

    Dr. Pamela and I sat down for a bit of an unusual conversation. Free flowing and full of wisdom for our times. We based it (loosely) on the statement or questions:

    Are we climbing the mountain towards connection?

    OR

    Are we headed towards the cliff of disconnection?

    We spoke of social media in many different aspects including how it has changed from when we joined and now, social norms, how taking a break from it is not the end of the world, external validation vs internal fulfillment, and so much more.

    So, dear listeners, grab a tea and sit with us for a while. There is something for everyone in my conversation with Dr. Pamela Maynard.
