Much happened, so I'll let you all listen.

Ep. 247 "January 28th" (How God moved this week)

There were several themes this week as I'll let you discover for yourself. We're sticking to the title being the date, but some growth has happened in pre-show preparation. Praise God!
Drink more water Listeners and remember:
"You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is, even if we're apart... I'll always be with you."
~ A quote from Winnie the Pooh, and A.A. Milne (When I read this, I hear God speaking to me).

Ep. 246 "January 21st" (A Diary Entry from your Host)

Happy MLK Jr Day and Inauguration Day!...
I'm rushed to production today. This Diary Entry was not as streamline as it was last week. Of course, "God laughs when man plans".
So, this week's Entry is rather all over the place. I call for prayers to be made and announce prayers answered. I also give some drama advice (both in cinema and within interpersonal relationships).
Please, do me a favor and subscribe to our friend Gunnar Gaylord's new YouTube Channel! (Reflective Journeyman) His first video is up and I'd love for you all to go listen for 13 min and give him some love. Gunnar has been on the show and is a wonderful man to know. I feel certain you'll only stand to gain from the information he shares.

Ep. 245 "January 14th" (A Diary Entry from your Host)

This is something a bit new. I'm (Amy) amazed how long I was able to speak and how much more I could have concerning the happenings this week.
This is my first attempt to chronicle how God moves and speaks, in my life. I'm leaning into this being both a Diary and a work dedicated to the glory of God.
This was pure and mostly freeform. As I admit, it's not concise, but if nothing else, I pray it will be entertaining. Above all, I want to share my life as a perspective and my walk with God as an invitation to others to explore with me.
Worse case, I'm in the world and not of the world... Which might lose me worldly favor, but save my soul. I pray it's enough.
God bless all Diary Listeners. Your time and attention is an honor to me.
Have a powerful week!

Ep. 244 "A New Look" (A Diary Announcement from your Host)

In this year of our Lord 2025, your host changes the "look" of the show and shares more about what's planned ahead. Mostly, things are being put in focus and one determination is clear... All to the glory of God.
As always, there is endless gratitude and love for all our Diary Listeners. We pray for many more years of Entries ahead.

Ep. 243 "May We All Ascend Together... But F Flies" (Diary Entry 2:2 with Nicole DeRoy)

Thank you for coming back and checking out this second piece of our talk with Nicole DeRoy of Ascension Tattoo in Sedona, AZ. 
We talk about the "street-shop" vibe and what gifts it yields to a newer artist. Nicole is also, one of the only artists in Sedona that integrates energy work with the tattoo service. She does "ceremonial" tattoos and shares some of the benefits of this kind of tattoo experience. 
Then... We get a quick visit from Rico who eats soup with us and shares a bit of his experience. 
Thank you for this time and attention. Things are moving and changing. We know that much is going on but what we want each of you to know of our wants: We hope we all rise together. 
God Bless and Enjoy the last few days of 2024!
Here are some quick links to follow all things "Nicole":

Ep. 242. "Present" (Diary Entry 1:2 with Nicole DeRoy)

Nicole is back! This is another check-in with the wonderful, Nicole DeRoy (now resident artist at Ascension Tattoo).
We've lived more life, learned more things; We're officially a Condo Crew! Post Paradise, we just wanted to sit down and talk about the latest happenings. 
This is a perfect, chill, reflective, show that we hope, helps keep folks moving towards personal betterment and healing... As well as reminding us that the greatest joy can only be had in the "present". 
Hope everyone had a great Christmas, Chanukah, Kwanzaa! Ours was overwhelming, but a pure blessing. Praise God! 
Thank you always, Listeners!

Ep. 240 "So Metal" (Diary Entry 2:2 with Allie Oxenblood)

Part 2 was so much fun with Allie Oxenblood, the Treehouse Tattooer. We finally talk about her apprenticeship. Yay!!! It is wild and the source of so much laughter, despite the very real and scary situations.  As determined within this show, life can either cause tears or laughter... Either way, we gotta get through. 
Allie... Thank you so much! This was a wonderful time and you were so gracious and gave such great advice at the end. Bless you and let's do this again.
God bless you all!

Ep. 239 "Piercing the Veil" (Diary Entry 1:2 with Allie Oxenblood)

This is Part 1 of our 2 Part Diary Entry with Allie Oxenblood, the Treehouse Tattooer. I think Allie does a great job introducing herself in her IG bio: "Tattooin, Tale-tellin, pot-stirring, liberty loving, dissident mountain mama. Ceremonial treehouse tattooing in Appalachia, WV."
In this piece, we talk all things God and explore some of Allie's time tattooing. In truth, this was off-script from the start and in order to get to Allie's apprenticeship days, we might have to meet again.
Hopefully, this podcast went rogue in the best ways. Your host certainly enjoyed herself.
Allie... Thank you to the moon and back! This was a wonderful time and you were so gracious to play along. Bless you and let's do this again for sure.
Listeners, come back next week as we're not done talking to Allie.
God bless you all.
