“The whole world is a series of miracles, but we’re so used to them we call them ordinary things.” – Hans Christian Anderson

The Heart of the Matter: A place where we write and talk about what mattered today and the inspiration to keep finding what matters each and every day. Think of Heart of the Matter as a homebase, a motivational center that helps caring humans fill up as we tell our stories about discoveries of what is truly important.  Heart of the Matter is content-rich, showcasing stories about our experiences as we strive to keep our heads above water, while focusing on the future and the glorious horizon.

The Heart of the Matter is a place where we build community. A place where meaningful interaction and comments contribute to a lively, positive, and proactive culture. Written submissions to The Heart of the Matter can be in long or short form content highlighting humor, poignant experiences, and first-person stories.  In common?  An intent to inspire with wholeheartedness, providing potential growth opportunities for community members, bonded in a mutual desire to be authentic, vulnerable, open and loved in most heartfelt and capacious sense.

The Heart of the Matter features content designed to support holistic health and wellness, self-care, and stress relief, in part through mindfulness and meditation and practical guidance, in an effort to foster growth and renewal. 

In addition, The Heart of the Matter features inspirational and thought-provoking podcasts intended to spark conversation and discussion while fostering encouragement and support for individual projects and authorship. 

The Heart of the Matter strives to be a non-denominational, non-discriminatory, apolitical space. The goal is to be inclusive and accepting of cross cultural and worldview perspectives, creating a safe and inspirational environment for all.
