Arts & Culture Podcasts

Life in the 21st century through the voice and heart of a poet. My dear listeners, Do you feel you move too quickly through this world? Pushing to achieve 'that somewhere in the distance' source of happiness, and ultimately racing to get somewhere big so at some point in the future when you're old and grey you can say 'you did it!' I was one of those people. A woman in the 21st century on a mission to claim the status of being fiercely independent, which I did... until I turned inward to see why I did what I did and why I felt what I felt. My desire to seek the truth of our existence & what we could really do to influence the greater good, resulted in the universe beautifully presenting me with synchronicities that have changed my life. Could you move slower and enjoy the ride while you're at it and get the same results quicker? These are thoughts I chase in my quest for the truth and have gotten closer to a more wholesome understanding. I now choose to savor & record the flavor of those moments that catch me in awe, and leave me with a feeling of deep emotion. I now choose to spend time in the stillness than in the race. Having said that, I now have a great yearning to share my understanding of this world & our truth as I feel it, in the now, though poetry. These are contemplations of life through my own emotional & intellectual journey and bursts of poetic flow of knowledge presented to me by people I admire, scientists, artists, and spiritual-gurus around the world who were put on my path to find the one truth. I record daily moments through words & voice so you can feel them; for what is life if you don't allow yourself to feel. Enjoy the podcast. Much Love, Ann. xxx

Eternal Trail

11/2/2021
We blaze through our days With questions along the way Wondering how to get by and make Something that brings honor to our name Little do we know when we start the run That that’s not what it’s all about Yet we courageously walk ahead In the hope to leave a mark on our ancestral past This is important to do for we stand here today, Because of those in the rear view, Whatever rights or wrongs you judged them with, Our ancestors are the reason we are here, Here to you, may be different from...

The Odds

2/19/2021
This poem was written to clean my soul From the cobwebs, That lingered, Here within, Here in my Home. I wake in a moment of surrender Waiting to see That which needs me A love A purpose A dream Family Hope Work Maybe I’ll bleed to Keep them all at ease All or nothing…

Raw from the soul

6/20/2020
It is in our unraveling that The wonder and awe lives It blooms with each step Each one a little more intriguing Than the last We scream, we cry, hope, beckon and gaze We dream, fight, laugh and laze, We live in the fullness of it all, For those moments in love, And out of it, For our becoming, Is never complete without It all.. So as we start to fall into grace Let it engulf us and take us into our better days That what I know now, I did not know then, And what I seek now, is well… The...

Rage

6/10/2020
The rage in my mind softens through words with time, when my poetry takes over, Like a river it flows, I feel it’s loudness in the urgency to take control, When I know not how to voice the truth I feel, It steadies in the stillness, It’s firm when it knows, Not through pure intelligence oh no, but through tapping into that divine zone, When my message can be crafted to speak To the masses, Then, It’ll be kind and firm to draw your thoughts to yearn, So what do we see today, The split of the...

An April 2020 Reflection

4/21/2020
These times are trying on humanity, but we can choose the way we want to deal with it, to use our mind to make our own conclusions on the state of world affaires and look to action positive change. Poetic Flow below: And today we sit, Head bent away from the sun, Wondering, waiting, wishing, For that day to come, Where we step back out for a run, I was told to stay out of politics, To save my soul, Little did I know, in my lifetime, We’ll be rolling in the heart of 1984, We’d be locked in,...

Gratitude Notes

4/13/2020
Gratitude is something we need to remember to practice to center us and bring us back to peace especially during troubled times. Writing, thinking or saying why you are grateful out loud daily helps us recognize that there are many things we can be grateful for, that we often forget about. Most often the things or people we take for granted are the very things that shake us to the core once taken away, and these are the very areas we need to look and find gratitude; for we have gotten so...

The Union of Eros & Logos

4/13/2020
In all stories, we can identify two aspects that are always prominent: Eros (one's feelings) and Logos (one's ability to rationalize these feelings.) Eros: The myth of Eros and Psyche is probably one of the best love stories in classical mythology. Eros, son of Aphrodite, was the personification of intense love desire and he was depicted throwing arrows to people in order to hit their heart and make them fall in love. Psyche, a beautiful maiden, personifies the human soul. In fact, she is...

Home

3/24/2020
The human soul seeks the sense of belonging. We are intertwined in the world with all beings and things, we all stem from the same source. Should we then not find home in everything. Ah, but what if everything was within?

Ego

2/28/2020
Ego, a word from the early 19th century from Latin, literally meaning "I." It denotes a person's self esteem or self-importance. It can drag people down a black hole they don't know they're in, detached from the connectedness of the world. Narcissism, self absorption, playing victim are some of the few traits. Most of humanity has worn the hat of "I" at some point in their lives. When "I" takes over, we are highly individualistic, not working for the collective greater good, that's aligned...

Contained

2/17/2020
What does it mean to be contained composed and in control? It's more about being the master of your ship ready for the adventure after you paint a vision of the feelings you would like to feel in your life. But controlling an outcome, a person, and the how you get there, is an old and tiresome process that depletes the energy of the soul. Surrender and have faith that whatever you believe in will become your reality.

For the love of LOVE

2/17/2020
People use Valentine's Day as a reminder to tell the person or people they love, they care. What if we extended that ritual to everyday, starting with ourselves and expanding that love to the people around us, what if we lived everyday like it was our last - who would we reach out to, to tell them we love them, who would we kiss goodnight, who would we hug to uplift their spirits, who would we call or text? Opportunities to show we care should come from within, everyday, not just on one day...

The Mystic (Part 2)

2/7/2020
I love the science between the heart-brain coherence. There's so much beauty in us, that all I want to do for the rest of my life is better understand it and share it with the world, as IT is what brings us closer to our truth. Our truth being everything we are supposed to be during our time on earth and that is being truly joyful. A little on the heart-brain coherence on living a joyful life.

First Tech Visionary (Tech-History)

2/4/2020
Augusta Ada Lovelace born in 1815, is a gravely underestimated woman in history. A mathematician and artist, born after Newton and before Einstein, she posed the notion of material and mind are more intimately related that was thought at her time. Known as the first computer programmer, and, only since 2009, she has been recognized annually on October 15th to highlight the often overlooked contributions of women to math and science. Lovelace died of cancer at 36, and it took nearly a century...

Channels to my soul

Channels are people who are put on our path to bring us joy, remind us of who we are and exchange mutual love. Dedicated to all the people close to my heart, who stood by me, found me on my quest for home, to remind me that life tastes so much better when we're together, in the zone. You know who you are.

Business to Human

We thought it. John framed it. Loose the B2B and B2C mindset. Let's talk B2H. Love it John. What would you want for yourself in an ideal world? We’re all human as so John said, So did it matter if we classified our business units As Business to Business or Business to Customer? We synced and said not, So really the question to ask is, Why do I exist? And what does that human I want to serve want?

Distant Breeze

I was stuck it a rut for a while. I felt defeated. I understood deep pain. And now, I can say, I am grateful for that, for it has helped me grown beyond my wildest dreams, into a woman I've always wanted to feel like. Whole & complete. I share this poem as a memory of a time where I felt lost, only because, I want to tell you, that if you are feeling that way, it will not last. My wish is that you take the journey inward. No one can help you but yourself. Your healing is not available...
