I really enjoyed listening to this interview. Nice job! I enjoyed hearing from both of you. I am curious how you record two of you in m two different locations. Do you do this via Substack or do you use a different platform and upload here? Love the lifelong learner attitude. I agree it’s all figure-out-able. Thanks!!

Desiree, we are contemporaries as far as age goes. I am a retired counselor and recently finished my Relational Spirituality Coaching Certification, and I love using my skills in this capacity. I wish you the best in your coaching and writing. It’s been an especially fun season in my career and marriage. My husband is nearing retirement but I plan to work longer. I’m just enjoying myself too much to stop!! Happy to meet you.

Hi Susan, thanks you so much! We recorded in Zoom and then I uploaded here, but now it can be done with a Substack live, actually :)

Thank you for explaining. So the Substack live now has a setting for two locations? Really appreciate you explaining this.

Yes, you can connect to one live session from many places; it’s not bound to a location. It’s much like a zoom call, but happening live, meaning it streams directly on the platform and is automatically recorded by Substack.

Sometime I need to recruit a friend to try this out with. I had planned to learn this with another writer last November, and we had planned to collaborate here. But sadly, Zach of OCD New Mexico died suddenly of a stroke. I miss him!!

Very interesting story! With so much travel experience I'm sure you'll never run out of ideas to write. A great interview and (late) congratulations for winning the challenge Desiree. Even though I'm not your "target" audience, I'm eager to hear more from you soon.

Amazing plans for your Substack. Wish you all the success you're working for. Thanks for your inspiration.

Desiree, what a great story! Both your books sound very interesting and what you've got planned to come is very exciting.

I've started over so many times in my life, i've lost count, butI totally get it. I'm about to start over again with some things while mom is still with me. And I'm preparing for what my life is gonna be like after that as best I can.

I think that what you're doing and what you have to offer will help in that process so I'm excited and glad I was able to watch your spotlight interview and learn more about you.

Look forward to speaking with you 🙏
