  • Honor the devotion to your heart’s truth⠀ On the podcast this week, Morgan Bolender shares about her song, Mary Oliver. It’s a song about her own journey, and it’s a journey so many of us can relate to. We get started out on a path that we are praised for, one that might feel like the right thing to do. And then somewhere along the way we wake up and realize that it feels constricting and wrong and there’s something else that calls our name.⠀⠀⠀ The sound of our soul is near to the heart of joy. I’m so grateful that Morgan has followed her heart and put her voice out there for all of us to hear.⠀⠀ You can find a link in the profile, or at https://buff.ly/2ucPNbU⠀⠀ Thank you @morganbolender for joining me on the show!⠀⠀⠀ #jumpstartyourjoy#podcastersofinstagram#morganbolender #feelingsparade#maryoliver #wildandprecious #songwriter#choosejoy #whitehottruth#daniellelaporte #creativecareer #morganbolender#songwriting #artistlife #pickingandgrinning #musicheals #soul2soul#jumpstartyourjoy #happy #beautiful #musicians#musicianlife #musicianslife#musiciansofinstagram #musiciansdaily#musicianlove #podcastersofinstagram#podcastlistening #podcast #podcasts#podcasting#joyoflife

  • We went to Stonehenge. It was awesome. Family selfie at the stones. 💕 #stonehenge #summersolstice #stonehengeselfie #jumpstartyourjoy #leylines #england #englishhertiage #summer18 #familyholidays
  • Druids at Stonehenge for the high noon ceremony for the solstice. 🙏🏼💜 #stonehenge #druid #stonehengepaper #prayersup #praying
  • My lunch yesterday. There was also ham. And marshmallows and chocolate covered rice cakes. All gluten free. All from the same country shop. England really gets it when it comes to gluten free. I’ve never had so many options 💜💂🏼‍♂️ #glutenfree #glutenfreeengland #freshford #bathengland #summer18 #glutenfreebread #dragonfruit #countrylunch
  • "Take me where I need to go" are the words that Morgan said as she sat in her car on Kona after quitting her job and not being sure of the next step. The universe was listening, of course, and on what can only be described as a magical journey to find her voice and follow her heart. I'm so thrilled to have Morgan on the podcast with me this week to share her amazing and beautiful story.⠀⠀ ⠀ You can find a link in the profile, or at https://buff.ly/2ucPNbU⠀⠀ ⠀ Thank you @morganbolender for joining me on the show!⠀⠀ ⠀ #jumpstartyourjoy#podcastersofinstagram#morganbolender #feelingsparade#maryoliver #wildandprecious #songwriter#choosejoy #whitehottruth#daniellelaporte #creativecareer #morganbolender#songwriting #artistlife #pickingandgrinning #musicheals #soul2soul#jumpstartyourjoy #happy #beautiful #musicians#musicianlife #musicianslife#musiciansofinstagram #musiciansdaily#musicianlove #podcastersofinstagram#podcastlistening #podcast #podcasts#podcasting#joyoflife
  • Windsor Castle 💕 The Queen is in residence this week for the Order of the Garter. And ok so we visited St George’s chapel, where a recent beloved wedding did happen to take place. But if real interest? The hubby and I met in World of Warcraft and there were *moments* where it felt like we were in Stormwind or The Barracks or ... somewhere we’d been before in another life. (And yeah, so nerd life and royalty and real life all got weird for a bit there. 😂) #royalwedding #windsorcastle #windsor #puttingthewindinwinsor #worldofwarcraft #warcraftbaby #wowfamily #thanksblizzard #druid #mage #windsorengland #queenelizabeth #summer #familyvacay #stgeorgechapel
  • "Will yourself to feel again." Morgan shares her story of waking up to her emotions on the podcast this week. As someone who is someone who is deeply curious, she follows her gut to things, even when they are scary or painful, and she does so in the earnest name of growth. Morgan started out her journey being truly afraid to sing, but realized that singing was her gift and her calling, and followed it. It takes a lot of strength to do the things that scare us, and those fears often stop us before we can get to the heart of our own truths.

  • This week on the podcast, I’m revisiting the conversation with singer and songwriter Morgan Bolender. Morgan is known for her song entitled Mary Oliver, which has gone viral on YouTube. She started her career as a 3rd grade special education teacher and then started on a journey to quite literally find her voice, and listen to her heart. We met at Danielle LaPorte’s White Hot Truth event at Grace Cathedral, where Morgan opened the event for Danielle. I’m so thrilled she’s here today to share about the amazing journey she’s taken to find her voice.⠀⠀ ⠀ You can find a link in the profile, or at https://buff.ly/2ucPNbU⠀⠀ ⠀ Thank you @morganbolender for joining me on the show!⠀⠀ ⠀ #jumpstartyourjoy#podcastersofinstagram#morganbolender #feelingsparade#maryoliver #wildandprecious #songwriter#choosejoy #whitehottruth#daniellelaporte #creativecareer #morganbolender#songwriting #artistlife #pickingandgrinning #musicheals #soul2soul#jumpstartyourjoy #happy #beautiful #musicians#musicianlife #musicianslife#musiciansofinstagram #musiciansdaily#musicianlove #podcastersofinstagram#podcastlistening #podcast #podcasts#podcasting#joyoflife
