SPARK, A Mother-Daughter Journey
Hi, this is Jenny Kierstead and Sophia Rae, a Mother-Daughter duo. We’ve been through a lot together the last few years. As we moved through COVID self-isolation, we also dealt with our own traumatic grief from the massacre here in NS, which claimed the life of Jenny’s sister, and Sophia’s Aunt, Lisa McCully. We decided to channel our desire to spark a light amidst the darkness by creating this podcast.Our hope for this podcast is to ignite honest, whole-hearted conversations that bridge the generational gap, heal trauma and light the path for a healthy, united future.
SPARK, A Mother-Daughter Journey
How to Think Big and Pursue Your Deepest Dreams
In this moving and frankly, inspiring conversation, this mother-daughter duo discusses the challenges and rewards involved in pursuing your own passions, even and especially when they lie outside of the cultural norm. This topic arose from Sophia's first big keynote speech that she did for the Mental Health Symposium in NB a few weeks ago (at the age of 17).
I share about my difficult, yet fascinating journey of traveling to India to discover yoga and mindfulness and how my life, Sophia's life and thousands of others would be so different had I not taken that leap of faith to follow my heart.
We make it clear that pursuing your unique life purpose isn't about climbing the social or financial ladder, but rather about listening inwardly to hear the calling of your highest self.
We agree that this connection to our truest self, never leads us astray and most always leads us to a life of fulfillment and happiness.
We hope this conversation inspires you to think big in your own life, and to take that one next step toward your dreams.
We want to hear your thoughts on this conversation, so please leave a comment and share how this resonates.
