I Have Dreams Dammit!

This is a very different episode. I want to tell you what's been going on with me during the entire life of this podcast. I'm shattered but I won't give up. A sharp corner has been turned.

This is part 2 of my 2-part interview of Benjamin Kintisch, Cantor, chaplain, music teacher, and creator of Life Review: The Hospice Musical. His musical theater background and his current work as a hospice chaplain intersected and gave birth to this inspiring and important musical about life and death. I call this a "Bridge Episode" because this is the first interview that I am posting to both of my podcasts: this podcast, I Have Dreams Dammit! Podcast and my other podcast, Death Talk Podcast.

Is the opposite of burnout, balance?  Or is it connection? Maybe it's both. And maybe the "balance" is about perspective - our perspective from which we observe whether we are in balance or not. What does "balance" mean to you?  The Sky Cafe - Tech support & community with other creatives for $14/month! http://theskycafe.com    ..::SHOW LINKS::..  I Have Dreams Dammit!

Is it possible that you get sick or get into emergencies on a subconscious level to get attention and support from some people in your life? Some people are only there for us when we are down or in an emergency. It's great to have their support in those moments, but it would be great to have their support even when things are going well. We need someone to cheer us on!

Your real adventure doesn't begin when you begin, it begins when you leave your comfort zone behind - when you chose the unknown over the known - when you chose adventure over stagnation.

2020 was a huge year of personal growth for so many of us. I look back on the year and how it affected my dreams: a global pandemic, a devastating wildfire, my business shifts.

I recorded this episode in my car with my handheld Zoom recorder. I wanted to get a message out to you to stay strong during this crazy "social distancing" pandemic time.  It's scary. It's uncertain. Yes. But it can also be a time of deeper soul searching. It can be a time where you do some things you have been putting off. How will you spend your time during this time? After Derrick died, my life was altered dramatically. All of the things I loved and thought made me "safe", went away. I learned a lot about attachment and loss during that time that I hope helps you should you need it right now.  If you need someone to talk to, feel free to email me at ihavedreamsdammit@gmail.com YOU ARE NOT ALONE!

How do animals know where to go when they migrate? Most times, they have never been to where they are going. And where they are going is HUNDREDS of miles away. Many will DIE on their journey. All they know is THAT FEELING. They are following it, no matter what. It is their destiny. Is our intuition OUR migration?  ..::SHOW NOTES::..  IHDD EPISODE 23 SHOW NOTES: https://ihavedreamsdammit.com/023%3A-dreams-%26-migration-1     ..::FREE DOWNLOAD::..  Download the FREE I Have Dreams Dammit!

If you follow THAT feeling, that feeling that has been inside of you your entire life, if you follow it... you never know where it'll take you! I got my dream job at Paramount Pictures, I created a video that that was featured on the home page of Yahoo!, I was on the set of La La Land with Dapo when he worked with John Legend.  My feeling leads me into all these cool experiences. Where will YOUR feeling lead you? ..::SHOW NOTES::..

Be sure to "check in" with yourself to notice when your support system (aka: your Jenga tower) shifts. Shifts will happen. And if your entire Jenga tower falls down, you'll be okay. You will rebuild. I know because that's what happened to me.   One of the things that really helped me heal during the worst of my trauma and grief was watching videos on YouTube: ASMR, sound bath, distant Reiki healing, and meditation videos.
