In this deep and thought-provoking conversation, Wendy and guest, author Lisa DeAngelis, explore what it truly means to embrace our full humanity: living as a “human being” rather than a “human doing.” They dive into the nature of potential, the power of radical surrender, and the unseen momentum that carries us forward, even in seasons of stillness. Lisa shares how presence and intention create space for what’s possible, why rest is an active force, and how we can reframe challenges as invitations to grow. Together, they unpack the beauty of slowing down, honoring our inner knowing, and allowing life to move through us in alignment with who we are becoming. Tune in for a conversation that invites you to slow down, turn inward, and trust in the unfolding of this magical journey called life.

In this soul-stirring episode, Wendy sits down with Forgiveness Teacher Dara McKinley to explore a groundbreaking approach to forgiveness that goes beyond simply pardoning or letting go. Dara vulnerably shares how the weight of a business that ended on difficult terms and years of negative self-talk led her to an unexpected realization: true forgiveness is about connecting with the profound power of unconditional love. Drawing from two decades of psychology and spirituality, Dara reveals how our brains are naturally wired for this healing process and offers practical steps to release old narratives and create inner peace. Whether you're carrying the baggage of past hurts or longing for emotional freedom, this conversation will inspire and equip you with the tools to transform your relationship with yourself and others.

About Dara:
Dara McKinley has studied and worked in the realm of spirituality and health for over three decades. In 2012, difficult life circumstances pointed her to forgiveness where she realized that many spoke prolifically about why one should forgive but no one spoke of how. Her background enabled her to successfully create and follow a forgiveness path that worked, but in the years that followed, the experience made her see some significant themes. In particular, she saw how mainstream forgiveness understanding (pardoning, ceasing anger, having compassion, and letting go) was obscuring the forgiveness path. She also saw that people who identified as spiritual-but-not-religious required a forgiveness path that was clear, and logical. This inspired Dara to devote her professional life to understanding forgiveness’ infrastructure and to making forgiveness the practical healing modality it was always meant to be.
