Giving birth seems like the most natural and emotional experience in the world. But what happens when things don’t go as they should, what happens when the most beautiful moment a woman should experience becomes a nightmare that changes the entire course of her life? In today’s episode of Whole Again, we continue our talk about resilience with another inspirational person whose life took a different turn after a traumatic event that took away all the things she considered defining for her life. ...

The day is finally here… As we reach the halfway mark of 2021 and start to reevaluate our new normal and the way our lives have changed, I enter a new challenge with a mixture of emotions- my knee replacement surgery. I’m eager and excited but also nervous and anxious. But this time I also feel prepared for everything that is going to happen. To our Whole Again family, Ripple Challenge community, our Peloton, our tribe, I thank you and I hope you’ll continue to join us on this new journey and th...

I’ve always been timid… hiding from the world, ashamed of my own voice, afraid of taking space, being a slave of my inner critique that stopped me from sharing my truth, my sense of humor, my essence. We all have our stories and experiences that left their mark and had consequences on our future, the only difference is the way we managed to overcome them, to shift them into boosters for our confidence and self-esteem. So, today, on The Kintsugi Podcast we encourage those who have been marginaliz...

The world changed. For the better or for the worse depends only on how we decide to live our lives from now on… Sharing energy, thoughts, ideas, or just a simple touch, a hug, has always been a fundamental way for people to express their feelings. And now that we can share that again we discover how much the need for connection propels us in this race called life. Just like in a peloton we need to surround ourselves with people that we can trust, people that will support and collaborate with us ...

I’m bionic! The surgery that I visualized worked, and I’m finally back on our weekly conversations here on The Whole Again Podcast to share my story, hoping to inspire and help others that are going through their experiences, and to shed some light on another “enemy” that I identified on my road to recovery... An enemy that stands in the way of our fully committed life, in us being present and resilient- the constant tendency to compare ourselves to others and our constant search for the “just r...

Today’s conversation about resilience isn’t a conversation. It’s a meditation to help you set your intentions for the day. Often we start our day in a rush. We hop on our hamster wheel and get spinning. A better approach is to take a moment to Pause Breathe Reflect and determine how you wish to BE today. This framework will help you meet your challenging moments with grace. If this episode sparked something within you, please download it and share it with a friend. Kintsugi is the Japanese art o...

In our quest for finding the perfect balance between work and life, we find ourselves always choosing work over life, living more as human “doers'' than as human beings. So why don’t we just stop settling for balance and aspire for more? Why don’t we jump off our hamster wheels and focus our energy on growing as human beings? Why are we afraid of taking the dip dive and dedicating time for inner work and emotional labour? Join this week's episode of The Kintsugi Podcast as we put myths to sleep ...

The day after… The day after supreme happiness, the day after complete chaos, the day after everything changes in our lives… In the heat of the moment we gain the ability to connect, to see each other, to reach out to one another, to extend our love towards people around us and practice inclusion for all people, but, as in many aspects of our lives, we end up losing this new gained power in the face of habit. And division settles… In today’s talk about resilience, we look back twenty years ago a...

I had a dream… A dream about terrifying heights, about a stranger who became a companion in an uncertain walk over the bridge, and of finally letting go and embracing the unknown, all supported by a very popular soundtrack by Dua Lipa- Hallucinate. As surreal as this sounds, this is a choice that we all face- cross that bridge and face uncertainty, face the chaos, learn to dance with it and grow or remain on the safe side, become that creature of habit, being a slave to fear, refuse to adapt des...

Today, on The Kintsugi Podcast we talk about practicing mindfully and how our lives are a collection of our habits- conscious and unconscious habits that bring out the best in us or on the contrary, habits that stop us from living a life of awareness and creating a better tomorrow. As I’m recording on Labor Day, I encourage you to take this time to reflect on what you are practicing, and to focus on gratitude, kindness, and love, being calm in your most challenging moments, and to visualize wher...

Today is bittersweet. I’ve decided it’s time to pause our conversations here on The Kintsugi Podcast. At least for a while. It’s not a decision I make with ease, but I am at that moment in life when I need time to concentrate more on the things that I consider will help me grow and reach more people. “Just like the trees lose their leaves in autumn, we humans need to lose or let go of something in order to grow...” I leave you, for now, with the conviction that what we created here will help you...
