This episode is one featuring a young lady who came to the United States as a foreign college student and returned to life and career in her island home. New baby, work, Covid, and hurricane season make for one interesting life for this guest. Welcome Paige Gibson! Imagine having to make a storm plan for your family on an island and both parents are in service industries…that’s how they met too.
We talk about being the wife of a police officer and what fears go along with that part of life that they experience. We talk about the honor and respect of wearing the uniform and how proud a spouse can be of what the other is giving back to the community.
Many levels of worry can hit right now in current times, but being a germophobe might be a welcomed trait during the Covid crisis. Paige says take the precautions and leave it in God’s hands.
The process of growing up taught Paige to adapt—it’s good to plan, but the back up needs a back up. There is a lot to new mothering and we talk about the emotions of highs and lows and guilt feelings and mothering in general.
Stay grounded and never forget what you were taught comes through loud and clear. You will certainly enjoy the perspective this guest brings to your podcast listen. Tune in!

Relationship Panel One—It’s Not Just About You

Let’s talk love languages and how relationships run the gamut from romantic relationships to relationships in the work place to students in the classroom and even relationships with art. There are plenty of levels to relationships that involve communication and understanding individual perspectives and needs. Our panel discusses the beliefs that relationships should be mutual, an equal playing field and they should improve the lives of those involved. This one specific word touches everything in life with many aspects and when you understand then you are more equipped to convey your love and appreciation. Relationships are connections.
The guests on this panel discussion have been guests on the podcast before and bring vast life experience to the table—Traci Weafer is a doula creating strong bonds with those families she helps. (Episode 24)  Zoe Kakou is an educator to the core (Episode 54) and Ann Carney (Episode 60) is in the midst of parenting young boys and works in marketing 
The idea of the love languages is that each person wants love in their relationships expressed a particular way and author Gary Chapman coined the phrase 5 Love Languages and dove into expressing how to be equipped to build a foundation to explore. The various categories are— Words of Affirmation, Acts of Service, Receiving Gifts, Quality Time, and Physical Touch. Each individual has at least one language that they prefer above the other… and this is where it gets interesting. Tune in!

The idea to talk to women who are out there living and making a difference is where the Stacked Keys Podcast was born. There are women who make a difference, but never make a wave while paddling through life. Immediately I can think of a dozen or more who impacted me, but I want more. I want to talk to those I don't know and I want to share with an audience that might need the inspiration to find their own beat. 

 

This podcast is to feature women who are impressive in the work world-- or in raising a family -- or who have hobbies that can make us all be encouraged. Want to hear what makes these women passionate and get up in the morning or what they wish they had known earlier in life? Grab your keys and STOMP to your own drum.
