    EP289: Messages We Are Meant to Receive
    2026/04/09
    There are moments when something finds you at just the right time. A quote, a phrase, a random text from someone you love, and it lands in a way that you weren't prepared for. That happened to me this week. A loved one sent me a quote and I couldn't stop thinking about it: "Healing is when you stop telling the story that broke you, and you start telling the story that rebuilt you." Simple words, but they opened up a lot. About the stories we carry, the ones we share with others, the ones we replay in our own heads — and what those stories actually say about where we are. Because the way we tell our story? It doesn't lie. It reflects where we genuinely are in our healing, not where we wish we were or think we should be. On today's Wise Walk, we're slowing down to explore that shift from the story that broke you to the one that rebuilt you. We're getting curious about the messages we receive and what they might be pointing us toward. Because in that curiosity, there's room for real reflection, a little more compassion for ourselves, and genuine gratitude for how far we've actually come. When a message or quote stops you in your tracks and connects on a deep level, do you take time to get curious about why it resonates?Do you reflect on why a particular word, phrase, or sentiment has an impact on you at that moment?Do you consider how it has shown up in your past, how it applies right now, and how it might support you moving forward?What are the stories you are telling right now, to yourself and to others?As you tell that story, do you notice an emotional charge, a sense of still feeling hurt, disappointed, or broken?Are you handling yourself with compassion and giving yourself grace as you acknowledge where you still are in your healing?Are you on the road to healing, and how can you move toward telling your story from a rebuilt perspective?Or are you telling a story that was once heavy, but in this moment you realize just how far you have come?Can you give yourself credit for rebuilding and for allowing yourself to heal from whatever that experience was?What is a message, quote, or phrase you heard on a podcast or radio that deeply connected with you?What is it about that phrase that strikes a chord and where do you see it showing up in your own life?Can you hold compassion for who you were in the past, who you are today, and who you hope to become?Can you give yourself gratitude for prioritizing your healing and for growing into the next version of yourself? This whole community is stronger together when we can honestly acknowledge where we've been and celebrate the rebuilding that followed. As always, I would love to hear what you took away from today's episode, so feel free to reach out. I look forward to joining you next Thursday. Until then, prioritize fun, read the signs, direct your path, and get your Stride On. In this episode: [02:32] "Healing is when you stop telling the story that broke you, and you start telling the story that rebuilt you."[03:42] When we're in the thick of going through an emotional crisis, we think about how this could be happening to me or why is this happening or what did I do wrong? We tell the story from the emotional state and place of the victim.[05:05] I love how the stories we tell are a great framework for whether we've healed from our emotional crisis. [08:05] An emotionally charged story that always comes to mind for me is my divorce. It was a difficult, challenging, and complex experience. [09:02] The healing process of my divorce took a long time, because there were so many different facets. [10:06] When I received the quote, I realized that I have come a long way when it comes to my divorce experience. I am grateful for that.[11:17] When you receive a message that deeply resonates with you, take the time to reflect on why that strikes a chord within you.[13:23] Messages we receive are also an opportunity to have conversations with those that we love. [14:11] You can also discover why these quotes resonate with those you love. [16:40] How your loved ones reflect on the quote can tell you if they've healed. You can also see their growth through their reflections. [17:21] When you receive messages, get curious about how they may apply in your life or of those you love. [18:03] When healing occurs, the way we tell the story changes. Memorable Quotes: "Any time we have growth or a shift, we should give gratitude for just how far we've come." - Mary Tess"We can't get someone to rebuild themselves. We just have to be compassionate listeners." - Mary Tess"When we go through something very challenging and difficult, there could be many layers of disappointment or hurt or brokenness that need to heal. We need to give ourselves compassion in that moment to heal and rebuild." - Mary Tess Links and Resources: Mary Tess RooneyEmailHeart Value Facebook | LinkedIn | Twitter | Instagram

    EP288: Adaptive Resilience: Finding Strength in the Setback
    2026/04/02
    Getting knocked off your feet has a way of bringing everything into focus. Whether it's a physical setback or something deeper on an emotional level, those moments where you feel depleted can leave you wondering how long it's going to take to feel like yourself again. I was recently in that place, recovering from a stomach virus that completely drained my energy, and it got me thinking about what it really means to rebuild not just physically, but in all areas of life. As I started to feel better, I couldn't help but notice how the body naturally adapts, creating strength and protection behind the scenes. It made me realize that we have that same ability in our emotional and energetic lives, too. We've all been through hard things before, and somewhere along the way, we've built the resilience to move through them again. This episode is about recognizing that process and learning how to trust that as you rebuild, you can come back even stronger. On today's Wise Walk, we slow down and explore what resilience really looks like in our own lives and how we recognize those low moments. Also, how we support ourselves through them and draw on our own history to remind ourselves that this too shall pass. When you hit those low points, where you feel depleted or stuck, what memories can you tap into that remind you you've been resilient before and that this too will pass?As you reflect on an area of your life that needs attention right now, can you recognize what's really going on and begin to reframe it into a growth moment instead of a setback?As you move through this experience, are you allowing yourself to reach out for support or permit yourself to take things off your plate?What can you let go of right now that isn't serving you so you can feel lighter and begin to rebuild from a stronger place?Where can you acknowledge the strength and skills you're gaining through this experience and remind yourself that you're stronger than this moment?How do you remind yourself that this is temporary and that you've made it through hard things before?What does resilience look like for you right now, not in theory, but in how you're actually showing up each day?Are you giving yourself enough self-compassion as you move through this, or are you expecting too much from yourself?Where might you be holding on to something that's keeping you stuck instead of allowing yourself to move forward?Who in your life truly understands what you're going through, and are you leaning into that support?What would it look like to trust that you are already rebuilding, even if it doesn't feel like it yet?How can you ground yourself in this moment so you feel a little steadier as you move through it?What is one small step you can take today that supports your healing or your progress? As we evolve, we begin to embrace this mindset of adaptive resilience. Whatever you're going through right now, know that you have it within you. You can recognize it, reframe it, reach out for help, rid yourself of what isn't serving you, and rebuild. I'd love to hear what you're navigating right now, and how you're leaning into your natural resilience. Reach out, share your story, and know that you're not alone. I look forward to next Thursday's Wise Walk. In this episode: [03:12] Our bodies are so miraculous. They have this high-functioning ability to adapt, even though we don't always know how to support it.[04:10] As we fight an illness, our bodies adapt. They create antibodies that clear infections and store memory cells to fight future infections and attacks.[05:04] Our bodies are constantly learning, growing, and adapting to our environment. Our memory cells are on autopilot, constantly supporting us in the background.[06:55] We also rebuild on an emotional level. Our emotions and energy have a natural growth mindset.[08:12] Whatever we are managing at this moment will pass. I came up with five elements that will help us restore and overcome physically and emotionally. [09:12] I'm looking forward to establishing a home base and creating nesting roots.[10:06] 1. We have to recognize when we are in that moment of not feeling our best. What are the threats? How can we reframe this? What am I supposed to learn? [11:01] 3. Reach out and ask for help. You don't have to do it alone.[12:22] 4. Rid yourself of anything that is not supporting you. [13:25] 5. Rebuild and become stronger than before. [14:05] If I get sick again, my memory cells will be able to recognize, reframe, reach out, rid, and rebuild. [15:13] One thing that has helped me when feeling ungrounded while searching for our home is to reach out to people who can support me. [17:09] I also know that I need to rid myself of influences that will make me feel worse about my situation.[18:06] This experience will help me rebuild in a stronger framework.[20:22] On an emotional and energetic level, where can we apply these five elements so that we can move through periods of transition and being ...

    EP287: Storytelling as Medicine
    2026/03/26
    I just got back from the most beautiful weekend workshop called Celtic Medicine Storytelling, and I have to tell you, I didn't fully know what I was walking into when I signed up. What I walked away with has been sitting with me ever since. The whole purpose of the course was to honor the oral tradition of storytelling and to explore it through a Celtic lens, because the Irish, the Welsh, the English, they have always loved a good story. And honestly, who doesn't? There is something so timeless and so human about gathering together and sharing a story. What really struck me was how the instructors used folktales that we all grew up with, like the Tortoise and the Hare, or the Ugly Duckling, or Red Riding Hood as examples of how stories can actually serve as medicine for the soul. We all know these stories, maybe just vaguely, tucked somewhere in the back of our memory. But when you stop and really think about them, those morals run deep. Slow and steady wins the race. Never judge based on appearance. Stay true to yourself. These weren't just bedtime stories. They were quietly shaping the way we see the world, the way we treat others, and honestly, the way we treat ourselves. This got me thinking about the stories we carry with us, the ones that made an impression on us as kids and the ones we now have the opportunity to pass on. Whether you're a parent or a grandparent, an aunt or uncle or maybe just someone who has a young person in your life that you love and want to influence, give the gift of sharing these stories. In helping that next generation feel connected to something so much bigger than themselves. On today's Wise Walk, we're going to slow down and explore how the stories we tell can truly become medicine for our lives. When you reflect back on your childhood, what were some of the folktales or stories that really impacted you?What ones stuck with you, and what ones do you want to share with the younger generation in your life?How did those stories influence you, and how do they make an impression on you now as you reflect back?What are the ways you are continuing to honor this oral tradition of storytelling, maybe sharing stories from your own life in a folk style way so that others feel the moral is relatable and tangible?How are you using stories in your life to support you?How are you taking a folktale you heard and relating to the moral of that story, applying it in your life, or giving yourself some grace because you connect with it on some level?Where can you stop judging yourself for being different or unique, and how can you give yourself the patience and the grace and the space to become the hero in your own story?Over the next several days, can you listen to whatever stories come your way with this perspective of how you can feed the story that someone is sharing, noticing what resonates and how you relate?Can you also feed yourself with that awareness in a way that supports your own growth, your own ability to be kind to yourself, and to just be at peace with whatever surfaces?When was the last time you told a story about how you struggled, what you gained, and how you got to the other side?Whatever is going on in your life right now, how can you hone the craft of your oral storytelling and share your stories with vulnerability, carving out the essential details so your listener stays engaged?How can you speak from your heart, allow awareness to surface, and then welcome the listener to feed the story back to you?What are the stories you want to continue to share because they are so resonant that you could apply them at various phases of your life and give yourself the grace and acceptance that you deserve? Stories are medicine. That is truly the gift I took away from this experience, and I hope it feels just as resonant for you wherever you are and however your day is unfolding. I want you to know that you are medicine for me too. When you share your feedback, when you share what surfaced for you after an episode, you are feeding this story that we are all building together. I would love to hear what you took away from today and what is coming up for you in your own life. Until next Thursday, I look forward to our next Wise Walk together. In this episode: [03:48] I've always been athletic, but I haven't always been the fastest. I really connected with the story of the tortoise and the hare.[05:15] Accepting that I'm not always the fastest one has given me peace.[07:17] At the Celtic Medicine Storytelling workshop, they would tell Celtic stories and then ask us to share how we related to the stories. Feeding the story.[08:18] I love how when we hear stories during different phases of our lives, we relate on different levels. [09:00] We're constantly trying to engage with others.[11:19] I also had an opportunity to share a personal story in a folk style way. There was a moral and contrast or climax.[13:34] We were also to honor the tradition of oral story telling. The oral ...
