You know those conversations that are just SO good they feed your soul? They light you up! Today’s episode is one of them.
You are about to meet Dr. Melissa Bird, an author, lay preacher, life coach, keynote speaker, podcast host, and witch. We met at an event in the fall of 2021 and in a moment of extreme vulnerability, Melissa’s conversation and presence grounded me. She embodies her power in such a beautiful way it’s inspiring.
The conversation that we have… it’s self-care for the soul! Spiritual, deep, honest, beautiful, right on time, MAGIC. I said what I said. Those are the best words my brain could conjure to describe this but here’s what it felt like for me.
1. Nourishing to my soul
2. Expansive and exciting
2. My inner child felt seen, heard, and understood
3. Like an invitation to embrace my beliefs and truly embody my power
4. Self-Care for my Soul
Let me know what it meant for you.
And if you want to check out those authors she mentions, Here they are and oh by they way, a few have a podcast too!
