Finding Yourself on Journey to Self this Week
This week I am joined by author Martin “Mark” Tomback. His book, Spiriting Around: A Modern Guide to Finding Yourself, offers a practical approach to life’s challenges.
Mark has over 35 years experiences in spiritual studies. From an early inclination as a youngster he’s explored a variety of spiritual paths always looking for the common thread tying them together. His conclusion: Spirit is our birthright no matter how we interpret God. And every spiritual path has at its center a desire to know more about ourselves and our responsibilities to life. Mark currently lives in South Florida with his family.
Spiriting Around, isn’t another sea-foam-on-the-beach type book. It is about real life from a spiritual standpoint. That when you get that working for your, everything else gets easier. And there’s nothing you need that you don’t already have. You just have to learn how to work with what you’ve got.
Join me Thursday July 29th as Mark Tomback and I talk about his book and how to learn to work with what you’ve got to find yourself!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Happy Birthday U.S.A
Tomorrow most of us will be grilling out and lighting fireworks to celebrate the 4th of July. As you break out the red, white, and blue - take a moment to think about all the freedoms that get taken for granted. Through out our great country’s history there are men and women that stood up for those very rights, that worked tirelessly to right wrongs and to improve life for Americans - some gave their lives and some continue to give their lives to protect all that we hold dear.
My challenge to all of you is to spend some time thinking about what you can do to make a difference in our country.
Whether it is joining the school board, volunteering at a local shelter, or organizing a fundraiser in your community - the smallest action can be a catalyst for positive change.
Never underestimate the power that each of us have to facilitate change in the world that we live in. Because those great men and women that came before us never did!
I wish to all of you and your families a happy, fun and safe 4th of July.
~ Coach Tonya
