Tenaciously Being

All right, Tenacious Beings. If you have been waiting anxiously to discover what it is that I actually do in my life to keep myself closer to “health and happiness”, then this is the episode for you. I've linked a ton of stuff down below for your reference. Please reach out on social (http://instagram.com/tenaciouslybeing) if you have any questions about any of these products. Also, if you have an...

Welcome to the first guest appearance on Tenaciously Being - the podcast where we promise to get real about what it looks like to live your best life. My friend from the Gunnison Valley, Travis White, has joined me to chat about what it looks like to live a “healthy life” right now. We talk about how easy it is to find ourselves in a state of dis-ease, and ultimately how everyone’s approach to how...

Welcome to Season 2 of Tenaciously Being, the place where we’re exploring what it looks like to simply BE in this world. Season 2 begins to dive into the Health and Wellness, beginning with a quick synopsis of how and when I got to where I am now… a certified Health Coach that doesn’t really want to talk about “Health and Wellness” anymore 🤷‍♀️😆. Sometimes the things I want to talk about are int...

Phew, we did it! This is the final episode of what I’m calling “Season 1” of Tenaciously Being. All of these episodes were recorded prior to receiving any feedback - completely secluded in my own head and my own experiences. From here on out, I’ll be coming from a place of having received comments and critiques, you might notice a difference? In this episode we briefly review what was talked about...

Perhaps a little bit of friendly tough love in this episode. I break down my beliefs about how no one has the exact answer to what ails you. We discuss the beautiful paradox of this being freeing and crippling at the same time. A lot is changing in the world and it seems to be happening rapidly. Seeking answers from Old World paradigms, boxing myself into diagnosis’ and labels, and living as a vic...

Well folks, it’s just getting juicier and more and more personal with each episode 🤷‍♀️😆. As you may know, these episodes were recorded in the spring of 2023 and I am reviewing before releasing them throughout the summer of 2023. I have a tendency to forget what I say pretty quickly, which is making this review process pretty entertaining. I’m still finishing with a grin, so I’ve got that goin f...

Ooofta, releasing this episode into the world is giving me all the feels. I tell a few stories I’ve rarely told and tie up some scattered pieces of “My Story” that… might help everything else make more sense? Or perhaps you can relate? I experienced a lot of nervousness after I recorded this episode, and when I listened back to it I can totally understand why. In hindsight, I think I may have proc...

This short episode is a bit inspired by navigating the Easter Holidays with young kids, so while the timing isn’t relevant the message is timeless. It’s also one that has only recently dawned on me and the more it settles in the more grounded I feel in my Self and the way I am Being, so I hope it’s helpful for you too. As always, your attention to my thoughts is much appreciated. If you happened t...

A little background on the podcast name in past tense, but ultimately we got down to the point - Stress - what it means to the body and living in the Red Zone or the Green Zone. How to identify the stressors in your life and shift perspective in a lasting way. This episode was recorded at the beginning of April, 2023 and I’m clearly still working out the jitters of recording myself and my thoughts...

Take a quick walk down memory lane with me as I tell the story of becoming Rather Be Creative. It’s been over 20 years of remembering how Creativity is one of the precious keys of living the life I want to live. A lot has transpired on my journey, and it’s pretty cool to reflect back to a front porch in the Gunnison Valley where my college self stumbled upon this magic. Follow along on Instagram:...

Well, when I finished listening to this episode I had a big ol’ grin on my face 😁. I hope you do too. I appreciate the patience with the “um’s” etc. Did you know that many people use editing software to take those out? I just learned that and want to declare right now that instead of taking the time to learn that kind of thing, you’re just going to bare witness to my growth as I learn to quit it...

In this episode, I unwrap what I call “the bathtub analogy”. I tend to see how this analogy applies to everyone and everything at random times and will constantly be pointing it out, so it seems appropriate to dedicate an entire episode to it. I also recorded this episode directly after the first episode, so you’ll hear me talking out more of the processes of how this whole thing was put together....

Welcome to podcast world, Rather… tune in as I begin to shake out the jitters and kinks of sharing my voice. In this first episode I chat about some of the reasons why I feel like showing up in this format. The ways of the world are shifting and I find it fascinating and terrifying that we tend to struggle to even talk about it. I aim to giggle and um my way through it for now. From Creativity to...
