Count The Kicks Total is In!
Growth Minded Marriage
04/15/21 • 8 min
As a recap (in case this is your first episode, hello there!):
Kevin and I have been tracking our downloads since March 11th, 2021. At the end of 30 days, we made a $1/download donation to Count The Kicks in honor of our good friends' son, JP. Count The Kicks is a nonprofit dedicated to empowering and educating mothers to track their baby's movements while still in the womb. Tracking baby's movements for 30 minutes every day can alert you to changes which may be a sign something is going wrong with your baby. Count The Kicks then urges women to take those concerns to their healthcare professional.
Kevin and I chose to donate to this nonprofit after interviewing Kelli and Pat in episode 15, Growing Through Grief. Kelli and Pat courageously share their story of life after infant loss and they hope it is a resource to others struggling with grief. Thank you Kelli and Pat for allowing us to show up for JP in this way. It was our honor.
And now, our total is in and it’s big! pssst We had an anonymous donor!
Resources mentioned in this episode:
- Kelli and Pat's story of Growing Through Grief
- Video: The Why Behind Lydie’s Loop 5K/kid’s fun run

Growing Through Grief: Kelli and Pat's Journey
Growth Minded Marriage
03/11/21 • 40 min
Our long time friends, Kelli and Pat, courageously share their story of growing through grief after losing their son, Joseph Patrick (JP). The trauma of JP's death and life's journey after such a devastating loss could have easily been a story that ended in separation for Kelli and Pat. Instead, they grew to recognize that the most loving thing they could do was to support each other as they healed in their own individual way. They exemplify the value of prioritizing your own mental health and healing before you can show up for another; even if its the person closest to you. Now, after 5 years, they look back on their journey and share how they have grown together through the devastating loss of JP.
This episode is dedicated to Joseph Patrick Stewart, born still March 15th, 2016. Thank you for teaching me the superpower of empathy. Love, Ocrew Aunt MJ

We Grew From Wanting More to Feeling Enough
Growth Minded Marriage

“Most of life is choosing what you already chose.... Our lives are stories of recommitment. ~David Brooks
Kevin and I come full circle in this episode. We are recommiting to our dream life. Our lives will be a balance between a satisfaction with who we are now, and an openness towards who we could become. We are focused on making the ordinary feel extraordinary. Our lives are about staying true to what we have already chosen, and exploring the expansive world our focus now allows us to see. Plus, we continue to re-establish intimacy between the newest versions of ourselves.
*Editors note: After numerous listens it was determined that Kevin was in fact correct in his early assessment @ 3:10. Mary was possibly a tad defensive in the moment. #youwereright

Unreleased: The Awakened Anesthetist Podcast
Growth Minded Marriage
07/25/21 • 17 min
Hello Growth Minded Marriage Community! Kevin and I are still over here living our dream life, only much much slower and intentionally. We are loving our summer slow down and reset. Thanks for being patient while we take this break and gather ourselves for Season 2 coming September 2021.
Meanwhile, I had a burst of creative energy that I channeled into taking one step forward with a project that feels like something, just not exactly sure what yet. Thanks for being a safe and supportive place for me to leave this for the moment. Certainly feedback would be appreciated if you feel so inclined.
Message Me (Mary) @ [email protected]
And, yes, we are still working on a summer newsletter to our Growing Together email subscribers. Sign up HERE. Turns out that while we are honoring our commitment to truly slowing down, projects are moving slower than anticipated. We simply have to trust they will eventually get done. Ex. We have finally installed a new microwave that has been in our garage since June 2020. We haven't had a microwave for 9 1/2 years. This is big stuff.

Making Friends Along This Journey: Kathy and Thom Gottberg
Growth Minded Marriage
01/14/21 • 38 min
Kevin and I have been on a quest to find "our people". We know that our friends can influence our thoughts, feelings, and actions. Which is great, but Mary was always left wondering, "How are we supposed to meet these magical people?!" Well, now we have some answers!
Kathy Gottberg is an author, blogger, and free thinker. She has been a writer for nearly 40 years; publishing 7 books and blogging at SMARTLiving365.com since 2011. Her husband, Thom, is a commercial real estate broker who has been committed to living his motto "You get to make it up". They are a true team, supporting and pushing each other forward in all their endeavors. After a fluke encounter with Kathy's powerful message about Rightsizing, Mary mailed her a very excited handwritten Thank You card, and asked Kathy to be her mentor. This conversation followed a Zoom call the week before and many emails back and forth. We are so grateful, truly, that we can look to Kathy and Thom as role models, examples of what this journey may look like, and a glimpse into all the possibilities that still lie ahead.
Some of our favorite resources from Kathy and Thom:
- 1st Vlog ever about setting Intentions instead of Goals
- Kathy's book Practical Spirituality had me rotating between running to tell Kevin things and taking notes.
- Kathy gives reviews of books she's read. I love this one. The Practice by Seth Godin.

Our Return to Leadershape with Kristen Young
Growth Minded Marriage
12/31/20 • 36 min
Kevin and I were thrilled when Kristen Young, Executive Director of Leadershape, accepted our interview request. In doing so, she took a big leap of faith. She exemplifies someone who is willing to take a risk and open herself up to new experiences, something Kevin and I deeply value. Kristen believes in the mission of Leadershape, "To transform the world by increasing the number of people who lead with integrity and a healthy disregard for the impossible." The last 16+ years of Kristen's life have been dedicated to helping others see their own innate greatness and become agents for positive change. Two of those people were Kevin and I when we attended Leadershape's flagship program, The Leadershape Institute. Our conversation with Kristen clarified how the values and ideas planted in us at Leadershape have continued to guide us. A lot of pieces fell together for Kevin and I, and a lot of questions were answered as to where we got this desire to align our lives with our passions and values. We hope this conversation inspires you to ask some questions about your own purpose and passions. Let's Grow!
