This episode is a great follow up to EP 13. I talk about certain tips that can guide you to your motivation (intentions) and build determination. 

By the Fire series gives me a chance to chat with you all on a solo level. This episode I open up about approaching suffering with the right attitude. 

I'm excited to have Matthew Sutton join me on episode 12! Matt studies Applied Mathematics-Computer Science and plays on the Division 1 NCAA team at Brown University. Most, if not all, top competing athletes are told they need to give up so much for their sport. In recent years discussions and awareness have been surfacing about athletes mental health and how we can do better. I believe Matt is a leader at this table. We talk about finding other outlets in your life - you are not just one career -, meditation/journaling, and being more active than passive in your life.  

This is the second episode in the series 'By the Fire', where I, your host - Maura McKeown -, gets to run the show. This series is a time for me to fly solo and chat about recent events or findings that have surfaced in my life. This episode explores three topics. First, the most deadly incident in soccer history: 125 people dead from stampede onto the field. Second, the development of more efficient and effective transplants, starting with "Personal Pigs". Lastly, an analysis of the excerpt from the book The Art of Happiness; the Dali Llama explains change and how it effects our relationships with others.  The podcasts instagram: @thepodcast.maurorless Maura's personal instagram: @lilmauradat  Email inquiries: [email protected]

By the Fire is a series that brings the fireplace to you. Kick back and get cozy. On this episode I talk about three recent events I have read about in the Wall Street Journal or New York Times. The first event highlights the owner, Yvon Chouinard, of the glorious brand Patagonia has "given" his company away. The second event brings to light some major issues with Tesla batteries. Lastly, I cover the workings of the luxury home market and why it's not doing so hot right now.  Instagram: @thepodcast.maurorless

On this episode Callie Dunham dives into her experience of a spontaneous move to a Costa Rican community. If you have not listened to her part one, I suggest you take the opportunity to do that now. Though, here in part two, we explore her new business Wild and Sovereign, and how she was led to cultivate the product line sold. The topics that are spoken about are really eye opening to the power of plants, and how toxic pharmaceuticals can be for us. Callies is devoted to lending her hand out, in order for people to take the leap toward a better and more grounded life; it is truly inspiring. Some other topics that are touched on are why calories don't matter, eating organic is a privilege, and becoming a yogi nomad.  Callies Socials Wild & Sovereign IG: @wildandsovereign Personal IG: @calliemaa Mauras Socials Instagram: @lilmauradat  Netflix documentaries:  1.
