Something I’ve noticed over the years is the overwhelming amount of resources there are to help us “survive” and “get through” the holiday season.But what if we dared to…(glances over shoulder to make sure no one is watching) actually enjoy them?

Whatever past or present stressors have colored your experience of the holidays, it is always a good time a to celebrate the light that you are by creating traditions that are uniquely your own.
Some of the gems you’ll discover include:

What if one simple word could transform your entire year—even your life?
Today on the podcast, I’m sharing the one word that has guided me on a year of some of the biggest changes of my life.
It’s not the kind of word you’d expect.
When I first shared it with folks, I’d cringe.
I thought it was too soft and simple, that it couldn’t possibly hold the weight of the transformation I was hoping for.
But as usual, the butterflies in my belly knew more than my mind could foresee.
In today’s episode you’ll hear gems on:
How choosing a word of the year has been my compass for the last 5 years—and each year it just keeps getting richerThe story of how this year I stepped into a 20-year dream come true—and the gems of wisdom collected in the processThe key differences between muscling your way through change and magnetizing it with surrender and devotionInspiration for choosing your own word of the year, and how to breathe life into it all year longWith love and wonder,
MaryP.S. For the first time, I’m offering my Word of the Year Devotional Mastermind exclusively for annual members of The Sanctuary. Come explore a year in sacred relationship with the path that calls to you. Click here to learn more.

Suzi is, a protector of the imagination, a nurturer of attention, and a devotee to the handmade. She is my good friend, and I’m honored to share today’s Come To Your Senses conversation, in which we ponder:
What it means to create a ‘nest for your holy knowing.’The healing power of writing our untold stories and unburdening our hearts onto the page.Everyday portals to enchantment like marigolds, quince, and even garlic ramps How to approach creative practice when you’re pretty sure your art supplies are judging you.I can’t wait for you to soak in the wisdom and warmth of this conversation—a love letter to creativity, beauty, and the holy magic of looking up.
With love,
Mary

My friends! We have a VERY special guest on the velvet chaise today—author, artist, performer, historian, and my personal burlesque mentor and muse, Jo Weldon.
Over 20 years ago, Jo and I met in a dusty Times Square rehearsal studio on a wintry evening in New York City. She changed my life completely by teaching me the art of fan dancing. With big, white, ostrich feather fans soaring over my head and around my body, I floated like a dove on the air of sensual greatness.

I am a big fan of traditional, seated meditation for detaching from the grip of ego, and allowing the soul to speak. As a feminine being however, with G cup boobs and curvy hips (I’m a bit Zafu top heavy), I’ve often felt the round curves of my being press uncomfortably against the straight lines of pure silent, seated meditation.
The feminine soul thrives in aliveness, expression, beauty and embodiment. So it makes sense that our presence practices might need to adjust to meet our unique needs.
Today, I’m sharing some of my most cherished practices for building a honeyed approach to cultivating presence through the joy of beauty and the splendor of the senses.

This dream has been brewing for over four years, since the day I first sat down to a record my first episode. In the process of creating my dreams, I've observed that there are stages. It usually starts with hiding the seed of an idea in the dark as long as possible because revealing it, while thrilling, is also terrifying. If that sounds familiar, you're on the right track!
In today's episode, we not only celebrate the reveal of the Sanctuary, but also the grit, guts and gorgeousness that go into creating big dreams.
Enjoy the episode, and I hope to see you soon inside The Sanctuary!
