Synopsis

It's one of my favorite times of the day where I get to sit down, tune out, and tune into the microphone to share Soul Talks with you on what is sitting in the seat of my heart.  Are you a nurturer, giver and someone that truly cares about others at heart? If so, you might be prone to be what I like to call a "story adopter".  When you adopt other peoples stories and you begin to live it in sacrifice of yourself- it is not called love, it is called a disservice. In this episode, we talk about the struggle of stories that we hold on to that do not belong to us and how it causes a strain in our relationships with the people that we love, and more importantly, with ourselves.  I share with you my own experience with adopting someone's story.  That someone is my mom, someone who was considered a leftover after the Vietnam War.  Follow me through the journey of what it looks like to be a story adopter, the burden that it places on our backs, how it affects our relationships and how we can change that to make room
