44 - Ep 44 Keeping the Happy in the Holidays - Negotiating the Chaos & Staying True to You with Damali Peterman
Love, Sweet Love Inspiring examples of why love IS what the world needs now – and how our health and wellbeing depend on it
Inspiring conversations with folks – from kids to seniors, from authors to artists, from researchers to doctors, from teachers to school districts -- who are intentionally creating awareness and knowledge, through projects, programs and even systems, to foster care, love, compassion, and joy in this world, so that we can be healthier, happier, and more fulfilled.
Gayle Beavil, passionate educator, speaker, facilitator, and decades-long seeker of what it takes to thrive, speaks with these folks to find out why they do what they do, how they are doing it, and what they say are the vital connections to our health and happiness.
Join Gayle for informative and inspiring stories and interviews, as she celebrates the good around us, and uncovers what we need, to have a healthier, more loving, society. Gayle knows that what we shine light on, grows, and she thinks that shining light on relationships, care, community, and all the aspects of “love, sweet love” (as Bacharach and David wrote over 50 years ago), is indeed, “what the world needs now”. This is “Love, Sweet Love”.
