"I was maaaaaadddddd, I was so mad I could set the AIR on fiyah, yet even though I was, I was conscious enough not to lose my temper..."  Welcome to Episode 12 of Roll With Peace, In Mind. In this episode, I riff on POWER: Authentic or Egoic? Hmm...that's a question for ya ain't it? Maybe not something on the forefront of our minds, but when someone comes into our airspace operating on 100% ego power we FEEL it!

In "The Talk" segment, I delve more into POWER: Authentic or Egoic, as well as share my own story of how I was on the receiving end of someone's ego.

She begins by quoting the Persian poet Rumi, "live life as if everything is rigged in your favor..." Welcome to episode 10 of Roll With Peace, In Mind featuring another installment of 'Are You On The Right Train? Riding On The Urge' featuring folks who have chosen to follow their hearts, dreams and passions. They did not and do not listen to the nay-sayers or to the 'it can't be done-ners' but step out on Faith and Intention, not allowing fears to derail them. Today's spotlight is on the fabulous Sayydah Garrett, Co-Founder and President of the non-profit Pastoralist Child Foundation. She is also an ESL (English as a Second Language) teacher for adults and teaches French as well. I am so excited to introduce my long time friend to you, she is a dynamo with a deep well of Wisdom and Insight. She' razor-whip sharp and funny as all get out. And her journey is quite inspiring, you must hear the amazing way she and her co-founder Samuel Leadismo came together and created Pastoralist Child Foundation!! It's WILD! There are laughs throughout that we share due to our long history of sisters in friendship, I crack up when she says her dad's name...both our fathers were born not only in the same year but in the same month AND have the same last names!! Sayydah is convinced we are related and I don't doubt it! When you hear her journey to date, it's no wonder to learn of the amazing work she is doing. The mission of Pastoralist Child Foundation is to eradicate the harmful practice of female genital mutilation (FGM or female circumcision) and early marriages of young girls to older men in the pastoralist Maasai communities of Kenya, Africa. The children in Maasai communities want to get an education and achieve their dreams - like children everywhere else. Our work starts in Samburu and Maasai Mara and will spread to all pastoralist communities.

Welcome to episode 8 of Roll With Peace, In Mind. In this episode, I riff on CHANGE! Makes You Wanna Holla! How To Navigate Through Change With More Grace. Say what??? The state of Change is not a place we like to end up in. It can feel like we drove off the road, lost our way or fell asleep at the wheel. And transitions can feel the worst especially if there is some type of loss involved--loss of a parent or life partner, relationship or friend, a job, a career or a way of being--there can be gaps of a clear direction and what felt normal becomes anything but. We often ask ourselves who are we without _______  because at times, what is lost is how we defined ourselves. And depending on how extreme the Change is, we get scared, freak out or sit in a depressed stupor. Or all the above.  I remember when I was in what felt like a horrendous transition during a shift away from the showbiz industry--I was a basket case and felt so lost--what was my life without being an entertainer? What the heck was I going to do with myself next? That was the only passion I had (so I thought). And who was I really??? Who was I without being on stage?????? (Happily I found answers, LOTS of them! But that's for another episode!!) In "The Talk" segment, I muse on how uncomfortable and off-setting Change is and give you some tips and tools to navigate it with more Grace. Hint: it begins with Mindfulness. in the second segment I take you through a brief sample of my StressBusters Guided Meditation (of which I am the creator and practitioner) to help you Center, Ground and Connect. It's kinda like a cellphone to your Inner Self, your inner Guidance. In this guided meditation you have an opportunity to meditate on the tips I share with you that helped and continue to help me get through Change when it comes a'knockin'  The sound healing music you hear for my StressBusters Guided Meditation is of my creation and the tracks in this episode are available separately for purchase at Jacquie Bird, Spiritual Wellness for direct and easy access for listening.

"I can't waste any more time doing the things I know do not fulfill me..." Welcome to episode 4 of Roll With Peace, In Mind. In this episode, I introduce the periodic series 'Are You On The Right Train? Riding On The Urge' featuring folks who have chosen to follow their hearts, dreams and passions. They did not and do not listen to the nay-sayers or the 'it can't be done-ners' but step out on Faith and Intention, not allowing fears to derail them. Today's spotlight is on Ms. Kimberly Sumpter, CEO of the Wax Kandy Candle Co. She is also the Creator, Producer, and Host for the Sistahs Connect Podcast and has a thriving FaceBook group of the same name. She shares her inspiring story with us amidst some difficult times and decisions.

I am Jacquie Bird of Jacquie Bird, Spiritual Wellness--I consider myself a 'Spiritual Guide' not in the religious sense but kinda like a Life Coach--when we are disconnected from our inner wellbeing and thought processes, it sets off all kinds of Emotional, Spiritual and Mental imbalances. My Life has taught me there is nothing more important than our inner health, our mental health and outlook--in Essence, our WellBeing. I have lived as a Creative, and teacher since the age of 18. Bumps in the road? Um yeah...a LOT! They hurt? Uh huh, made a grown girl cry. But everything is a step in The Journey, to be Experienced and to be Learned from. Today I navigate with much more Grace, Wisdom, Joy, Intention, Mindfulness, Humor and GRATITUDE.

Welcome to episode 3 of Roll With Peace, In Mind. In this episode, I share my Seven Tips For Success To DE-Stress--these tips have helped me tremendously. Whenever I find I am on the road of HSOM (High Stress Out Mode), I tell myself to take my own advice and apply this list! In "The Talk" segment, I break down these tips: Breathe Hydrate With Water Exercise Your Positivity Muscle Expect The Best Carry An Essential Oil  Press On Those Pressure Points Breathe DEEPLY in the second segment I take you through a brief sample of my StressBusters Guided Meditation (of which I am the creator and practitioner) to help you chill out and release some of the stress and anxiety you've been rollin' with. In this guided meditation you have an opportunity to consider which of the 7 tips you will choose to work with. The music for "The Talk" is called Dande which is a traditional song in Shona Music, the music of Zimbabwe, Africa. I play on a magical instrument called dzavadzimu mbira, a particular type of mbira. I find the instrument to be soothing and calming while at the same time having an invigorating effect that is oh-so-good. The sound healing music you hear for my StressBusters Guided Meditation is of my creation and all tracks in this episode are available separately for purchase at www.jacquiebirdspiritualwellness.com/music for direct and easy access for listening.
