A Dream Long Dreamt

quotation

Over the years I have dreamt of creating certain things, now closer to a possibility of making it happen, I am looking at the collective picture to make happen.

I believe if we bring the business world and the wellness world together in ethical, dignified, respectful and enlightened collaboration, we would unit the good vibrations this world needs to move forward into global well-being productivity. 

Back in 2001 when I stated The Art of Positive Living, I desired a large old house that would provide holistic services for those willing to embrace a new path to wellness. In this house was an aromatherapy room, a massage room, a yoga room, an acupuncture room, an intuitive room, an inferred sauna room, a child care room for parents, a social guidance therapy room, and a juice bar with healthy snacks room.

It would have been a membership and would have allowed 20% of its participant’s free to allow access to people like Mums, Dads, caregivers and the homeless who need it and can’t afford it.

A dream not yet realized but still obtainable.

I also dreamt of a community where holistic, alternative life stylers and practitioners would live and work. Not a hippie commune but a professional healing arena and training ground for people to come to in order to heal and healers to learn how to heal and grow their own businesses.

Having now interviewed over 2800+ people who are doing great things for people in the world, I know the one thing lacking is a PLACE for like souled, minded and spirited people to come and embrace their like collaborators and expand on their personal gifts.

I have over the last 10 years, built a platform with an abundance of wisdom, skills, knowledge, and passion that will enable others to grow into their own abundance. In each show, each person interviewed is the inspiration that invites us to know that we can become the person we hope to be if we are willing to invest time, love, and energy into our own processes in life.

My philosophy is always to seed others in their own productive possibilities, which in turn helps mankind grow by building stronger communities. A portion of the overall proceeds from our pod books, shows, Mentors, Practitioners, plus, goes back into the community giving opportunities to those who need care guidance, and hope whose budget does not allow for it. This is my Fund-Action Program that will be ignited this year.

Self Discovery Media has led me to some extraordinary people doing wonderful things for the people and the planet, and as a possibility seer, I see lots of cohesive collaborations with many. BUT, if they do not see it or feel it or do not wish to pursue it, then it is a no go.

So I keep my fishing rod out there, always looking for those collaborations, those potential co/ventures, sponsors, and soul alignments that could propel any of us forward into that bigger picture.

Globally we are each doing our own thing, but by weaving our thread together we can have a blanket of hope, possibilities, actions and production with a solid foundation to grow and unit on.

I have asked the universe to send me such innovative active souls who share a similar vision so we may start building a foundation in which to build all those possibilities.

So far I have people who see the bigger picture and share a desire, and people who could build it, and many of those who will use it. Now like a good piece of music, we need to bring it together in harmony and produce a musical piece that inspires illuminates and invites all those who are ready to take action in building a better life for themselves and a stronger world for us all to live in.

Here I go, leap of faith, for I believe in my meaningful purpose and the journey it took to get here. I am ready to make this vision a reality, I am open to partnerships with those who share the dream and step forth in action, I am in joy to know that this will build a safe haven for all those who wish to embrace their soul, heart, spirit freedom and become part of the solution to the world’s problems.

It all starts with us, within us and because of us, let this be the platform that unites us all in unity and dignity and meaningful global purpose.

TSM16/16. Journalistic Wonderment with Amy Ellis Nutt

Their Story Matters with Sara Troy and her guest Amy Ellis Nutt aired April 19-25th 

Mental Issues, Transgender, Ship wrecks, Science Writer, Fact checker, Amy has done it all. 

BECOMING NICOLE: The Transformation of An American Family
by Pulitzer Prize-Winning Journalist Amy Ellis Nutt.

book-becoming-393

BECOMING NICOLE is a miracle. It’s the story of a family struggling with—and embracing—a transgender child. But more than, it’s really about accepting each other, and ourselves, in all our messy, contradictory glory. The Maines family is as American as they come. In the journey, they take toward authenticity, and justice, we see a model for the future of our country, a future in which all of us somehow find the courage, and the love, to become our best selves.”

In 2012, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Amy Ellis Nutt began reporting on a family that is ordinary in many ways – middle class, politically conservative, from rural America – with one exception: one of their identical twin sons, at the age of about two, began identifying as a girl. On October 20, 2015, Random House published  BECOMING NICOLE: The Transformation of An American Family, a book about gender identity, transgender rights, community, and, above all, a family tested beyond what they could ever imagine. It’s also a book steeped in the history of transgenderism, putting Nicole’s story into a larger cultural and medical context.

When Random House Executive Editor David Ebershoff acquired BECOMING NICOLE in early 2013, little did we know that 2015 would be a watershed year in the trans movement: Laverne Cox has become a superstar; Caitlyn Jenner is telling her story in powerful ways, and newly-minted Oscar winner Eddie Redmayne  played an early transgender pioneer in The Danish Girl. BECOMING NICOLE, through its story of one girl and her family, illuminates a complex social and political issue so many Americas are curious about. NOW BEING MADE INTO A T.V PILOT COMING SOON.

“Born in Staten Island, I grew up in central New Jersey as the middle child of five, daughter of Dave and Grace Nutt. I have a beloved brother and sisters and 12 adored nieces and nephews. An aborted career as an academic serendipitously propelled me, albeit late out of the gate, into journalism. Sports Illustrated magazine, and Bambi Bachman Wulf, gave me my start as a fact-checker. A Masters degree in Journalism, earned at Columbia University in one of the J-school’s first part-time classes, helped me realize that as much as I loved sports, I didn’t want to write about them the rest of my life.”

A breast cancer survivor, bio-polar, 80% deaf as a child, all these things gave Amy the tools and understanding she needed to thrive in her field of expertise.

Nearly everything I know about storytelling I learned at The Newark Star-Ledger, where I was a finalist for a Pulitzer Prize in feature writing in 2009 for “The Accidental Artist,” which eventually became a book, “Shadows Bright as Glass.” In 2011,(Buy Here)  I was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in feature writing for my series “The Wreck of the Lady Mary.”

In 2014 I was lucky to land a dream job as a science writer at The Washington Post, where my beat is the “brain.” Currently, I live in Washington, D.C., but I’m still a Yankees fan.

Amy Ellis Nutt is longtime American journalist and author. She won the 2011 Pulitzer Prize in feature writing for a narrative investigation into the deaths of six fishermen in the sinking of their scallop boat off the coast of New Jersey. She is the author of three books including two NYT best-sellers published last year, The Teenage Brain, with co-author Dr Frances Jensen, and Becoming Nicole: The Transformation of an American Family. She is currently a science writer at The Washington Post and lives in the District of Columbia.

Nutt’s beat at the Post is the brain where she frequently writes about mental health issues including most recently a 3-part series into science’s search for new biologically-based methods of predicting, diagnosing and treating mental illness.

He shares the spiritual principles that will help you unearth the negative, destructive elements of the past and empower you to overcome your limitations and reconnect to your authentic self. Guiding you to the path you must travel to manifest your harmonic, divine purpose and destiny through the power of unconditional love.

Bening a teacher & spiritual healer Ainsworth Forgenie’s goal is to bring healing to those seeking spiritual restoration. If they happen to be aware of the shackles, they are usually unaware of the mechanisms necessary to remove them. He works to equip them so that they can reach a place of wholeness, connectedness and full self-awareness12966015_10153592714557362_2060659650_n. Empowering them so that they can live a transformed life and so thereby experience true freedom and joy.

Ainsworth was baptised at the age of 17 ½ started preaching by 18 and was a pastor by 19. A role which he was engaged in until 34. After which he did seminars and workshops etc. Through a series of events which led to intense study he eventually, about 7 – 8 years ago, decided that he was no longer going to accept the Christian dogma as THE TRUTH. Nor any dogma for that matter. Instead he began an inward journey that has lead to where he is right now. The main discovery being that: Truth is not to be found in writings of any kind. Truth is not something that is taught, rather truth is an inward journey, a journey to self. Truth is something we become.

Laura’s passion is to empower people to live their lives in the most authentic and passionate way possible, aligning their lives with their own divine mission and discovering and developing their own spiritual gifts. “We are truly spiritual beings having a physical experience and not the reverse!”

When we lost my healthy, fit and handsome twenty-year-old brother in a drowning accident in 2010, I was in a state of shock and deep grief, like anyone in a similar situation, would be. But as the weeks and months passed, I embarked on a spiritual journey, trying to understand death, bereavement – and life. I read books, attended seminars and talks, grief counselling sessions and even a few sessions of hypnotherapy, and more specifically – Past Life Regression. I was curious and thought: why not, I’ve got nothing to lose.

There’s one funny thing about dead people, and that’s that you can talk to them all you want, and they can’t talk back. Or can they? Ask anyone who’s lost a loved one, and many will tell you that the dead can actually talk back. Whether in a dream, a whisper in the wind or your imagination, our dead friends and relatives are always there with us, even years after they’ve passed on.

A spiritual and psychological novel, Recognitions explores the concepts of past lives, recognition of people and their roles in our present lives and life lessons.
Recognitions is the first of a trilogy. To order please visit your favourite independent book store or click here or here
