We so often speak about purpose in terms of finding it, the tools we need, and how to know when we are on our destined path, but what we don't talk about enough are the small, seemingly insignificant moments that speak to us and have the power to create our life revolution. This week we're talking about purpose, the power of social media, and what it means to be a parent with Laura from Foster.Parenting. Every parent and child has struggled at one point another, and when that happens, we often seek resources to assist and empower ourselves. If you have logged onto Tik Tok or Instagram in the last year, you've likely stumbled across one of Laura's videos where she offers such resources to parents around the globe, especially those who are foster parents. What started as a way to fill the gap of resources during the pandemic has turned into a global advocate platform for foster children, parents no matter birth, adopted, or fostering, a place for teachers to learn about trauma outside of the classroom, as well as a way to show up for the children in our communities and homes. For the first time, a face and voice that millions have watched, fallen in love with, and followed shares her personal story, her why, and her deep desires for the children in her personal care and yours. Key Takeaways: 00:00 Introduction 03:00 Laura's purpose begins as a teenager when a Christmas Special opens her eyes to a world she was unfamiliar with 07:09 Laura's views on family and not needing a traditional or specific definition 08:20  A glimpse into the process of fostering a child home 10:18 Emotional regulation as a foster parent and the importance of emotional balance as a parent in any capacity 12:09 All parenting comes with struggles. Taking on what works for you 13:33 Why leading with kindness and compassion is essential in all situations 14:29 Laura's motto is the perfect guideline for a balanced day 15:13 The biggest challenges Laura has faced and a brief view of the foster care system 17:50 Attachment is necessary and a new perspective of how all children are fostered in their growth regardless of their home life and situation 19:51 Giving yourself permission to change and grow while giving your desires a try 21:05 How Laura has been impacted by fostering and the good she has seen     24:20 How a servant's heart has elevated Laura's purpose 26:16 Witnessing and learning from the cycles of addiction, mental health, homelessness, etc. How this impacts every community, the children within it, and what we must do to create a safe space 30:07 You don't need to be an expert to have compassion, lead, or be willing to serve and learn 35:16 Not every child returns home. A deeper understanding of how this works and how to create support 41:36 How Laura's platform was created and the why behind it 47:35 What is happening in every community and how children are being impacted 51:10 Laura's best tips for parenting 54:49 What Laura wants you to know about foster parents 55:51 Where you can learn, follow and support this mission 58:14 Laura's three things A few essential takeaways Laura shared are that each of us has a purpose, the ability to serve when we stay present, and we all have the power to make an impact. Yet, in the end, all we have is today, and we must live in these moments and give all that we can to make this day the best it can be. This is true not only for ourselves but also for those who need our support, love, and ability to see them in their most significant moments of need. If you would like to dive deeper into foster parenting or learn more from Laura's vast resources for parents, you can visit her website at www.fosterparentpartner.com or follow her on TikTok and Instagram @foster.parenting.

Today's episode is a conversation with Barry Nicolaou who lives in Sydney, Australia. Barry has a best selling book on Amazon entitled "The 11 Master Secrets to Business Success & Personal Fulfillment", and this conversation reflects that he knows a lot about that big subject. He began by sharing with us what he calls his "graveyard story" in which he received the message "Live your life", and he explains how receiving that led to writing his book and doing what he is doing today. Our discussion was pretty wide-ranging covering topics such as: the law of attraction, conscious mind vs. subconscious mind, being of service, trust, self-love, the central role of love, how to let the Universe guide you, wholeness, oneness, and much more. Don't miss this one, and more information about Barry can be found at barrynicolaou.com.Support the show (https://spiritualitybeckoning.com)

It seems simple enough, doesn't it? You've known forever that you were born an artist. Over a lifetime, you work in the jewelry business, paint paintings, and create greeting cards. Producing beautiful paintings was nice and people appreciated them, yet that work didn't seem to register as having the impact on the community in the way you would like. Exactly how do you elevate yourself to living your purpose with those artistic innate talents and make the difference to which you so aspire? Join the conversation to hear how Marty Ruiz did just that, managing to turn his volunteer hobby to sing into a paid, fulfilling vocation that allows him comfortable work-life integration.

Please join me as I interview Gayla Mawell (Apologies for recording being faint initiallyit gets louder part way in) Gayla is and has been many things including Founder of TranceForm Nature Retreats, an Author, Singer, Speaker & Teacher. She is a Master Trainer, Clinical Hypnotherapist & Hypnoenergetics Practitioner and Author of internationally acclaimed “Permission to Dance, A Course in Love & Happiness”, Gayla talks about her spiritual and life journey and all she has learnt about herself on the way to be accepting of herself and others, allowing herself to just be. She now believes you don't need to be identified as a “spiritual person” to be spiritual, it's more about how you live your life with spirit inside you. She talks about her experience in living what she thought at the time was her purpose in life. She worked as a Therapist and loved it, she felt connected whilst working but was left feeling sad and empty when her clients left. She realized through a process she shares what she is most passionate about and what really brings her ongoing joy and so made changes in her life to be able to live it fully. Gayla's restaurant “Eden on the Bay” delivers all that she is most passionate about. The concept is unique, real and what so many of us have waited for. Finally there is restaurant who's suppliers align with the philosophy that we only take what we need and with total respect. Eden on the Bay support Fair Trade, Organic, Sustainable Fishing, Gluten Free (unless you ask for non-GF) and vegetarian.
