Episode Description
I define connection as the energy that exists between people when they feel seen, heard, and valued; when they can give and receive without judgment; and when they derive sustenance and strength from the relationship. Brené Brown You, like anyone else, do not live in a vacuum. Unless you are stranded on an island, you interact with people in some way every day. You are in a web of relationships, being parent, child, neighbor, friend, customer, coworker. These connections to other people are hidden gems. Paying attention to your connections with others is a vital part of pursuing your goals, dreams, and desires. You can make conscious choices to improve your relationships in ways that benefit both individuals and to create more sparkles in your life. Join k d MarLee as we explore the Mighty Gem of your everyday connections.

Through this creative process, she naturally began living with more presence and awareness. Growing up, dLee spent time in her father’s garden where she enjoyed the positive beats of this natural environment. She created and produced summer shows using a stage set, records with music and neighborhood kids as the actors in the stories. For these shows, she managed the players and painted the show graphics on large rolls of left over newsprint paper. She learned valuable life lessons working with these creative productions. dLee was encouraged and inspired by her artist mother and several artist neighbors to play with art mediums just for the joyful experience. Today, dLee combines her love for writing and photography, as her lily pad, to create beautiful wall art, gifts and photo books offered at her website, Photodlights.com.
