  • Pain to Purpose: Finding Confidence, Faith, and Healing with Marsha Tucaling

    This episode is one of the most powerful and transformational conversations I have ever had. My guest Marsha Tuscaling opens up about her courageous journey through sexual abouse, suicide thoughts and an attempt, and growing up as an immigrant in deep poverty-where there were times her family had no food and her father struggled with alcoholism.

    Marsha shares how she went from hopelessness and self-doubt to a life rooted in confidence, faith and purpose. She talks about the pivotal moments when God showed up, even in her darkest seasons, and how that divine guidance helped her reclaim her life.

    This episode will remind you that no matter how broken or unseen you feel, healing is possible and your story can become a source of light for others.

    Together, we discuss:

    -Overcoming trauma and rebuilding self-worth

    -How to find confidence after deep pain and self-doubt

    -Faith as a lifeline in moments of despair

    -What healing looks like after abuse and addiction in the family

    -How to turn pain into purpose and step into your calling

    Marsha’s story will touch your soul. It’s full of trial and hope. Her heart-centered wisdom and faith will inspire you to believe that transformation is possible-no matter where you start.

    Powerful quote from the Episode:

    “God met me in the middle of my pain-and that’s where healing began.”-Marsha Tucaling

    Listen when you need:

    -A reminder that you are not alone

    -Faith in the middle of self-doubt

    -Courage to face your past and rise stronger

  • Stuck on the side of the Road, Peace in Forced Pause (meditation at the end for your pause)

    Life can definately have some unexpected twists. Those twists or blowouts can be a time to notice our thoughts and feelings inside our bodies. We can notice them with gentle awareness. It takes practice though. In this episode, I use my multiple events of being stuck on the side of the road to share how we can watch our thoughts and not let them carry us away. I hope this helps. I help overwhelmed humans especially moms shift from overwhelmed feelings to more alighned living. I use tools of breathwork, somatics, mindfulness and mindset to do this. I have a program that does just this. It makes life a little more manageable, it is a blueprint to find calm in our chaotic lives. If this seems interesting, please reach out. I love feedback and I love meeting you all. Your support and kind words are always appreciated! Ways to stay in touch:
