Have you ever walked back into a familiar place and realized… you’re not the same person who once lived there? In this deeply personal episode, I’m sharing what it was like returning to Memphis after seven years to visit my father and stepmom—for the first time since my brother passed away.

This conversation isn’t just about grief. It’s about what happens when memories, healing, and growth all show up in the same room. We’re talking about the weight of silence, the power of presence, and the raw truth that healing doesn’t mean forgetting—it means making room for both the ache and the hope.

I’ll walk you through 3 intentional steps to help you navigate your own journey of grief and growth—ones that go beyond what you’ll find in a search bar. This episode is for anyone who’s felt stuck between mourning the past and trying to move forward.

Sip Along with Me!
Each episode features a different wine! This time, we’re sipping on a Barolo—a bold, structured red wine from Italy’s Piedmont region, known for its depth, complexity, and soul-stirring tannins. Like grief, it takes time to open up… but when it does, it reveals layers worth savoring.

Let’s be honest—control is a full-time job with no benefits, and it’s not even hiring. So why are we still clinging so hard?

In this episode of Spiritual Growth & Wine, we’re flipping the script on surrender. Not the passive, powerless version you might’ve been taught—but the kind that invites clarity, freedom, and real peace. The kind that tastes a little like Tokaji wine: rich, rare, and deeply satisfying when you finally let go.

You will receive:

• 4 practical, soul-rooted steps to help you loosen the grip
  
  
  
• One of the truths about control (spoiler alert: it’s sneaky and it’s everywhere)
  
  
  
• An everyday example of how surrender shifts the energy in a relationship—without anyone “losing”
  
  
  
• Why surrender isn’t soft or weak—it’s sacred, intentional, and the most powerful move you can make
  
  

Plus, I’m sharing a wine moment with Tokaji, the Hungarian beauty that knows all about the art of waiting and releasing—because even grapes have to surrender.

And if this speaks to you? If your nervous system is raising its hand and whispering “yes, please…”—you’ll want to schedule a complimentary Love Chat with me by clicking the link below. Let’s talk about how surrender can stop being a concept and start being a practice.

Have you ever been told you’re “too much,” “too sensitive,” or “too opinionated”? Or maybe you fear speaking your truth because you’re afraid of how others will see you? In this episode of Spiritual Growth & Wine, we’re diving into what happens when you stop playing small and start showing up as your true self—without fear or apology.

So many of us are conditioned to shrink and fit into boxes that others create for us, but what if you could embrace your full power and live your truth without apologizing for it?

I’ll also be sharing practical steps to help you break free from shrinking, step into your power, and stop dimming your light to make others comfortable. No more watered-down versions of yourself—just bold, vibrant, and fully alive.

In this episode, we’re talking about something so many people struggle with—leaving toxic environments behind to make room for personal growth and spiritual healing. Whether it’s unhealthy relationships, stressful work situations, or negative social circles, being surrounded by toxicity can keep you stuck and hold you back from moving forward.

We’ll explore how to recognize when you’re in a toxic space, how to set boundaries to protect your energy, and practical tips for making the shift into a healthier environment that supports your well-being. I’ll also share how finding the right people and communities can help you grow and thrive on your spiritual journey.

It’s time to let go of guilt, fear, and those attachments that are keeping you in unhealthy spaces. Step into the freedom of creating an environment that lifts you up and allows you to heal.

And to top it off, we’ll be sipping on a Nero D’avola, a bold red wine from Sicily, as we dive into how shifting your surroundings can really spark change and help you grow.

Nero D’Avola thrives in tough conditions, producing a wine that’s deep, complex, and full of character—just like the growth that comes from leaving toxic environments behind.

In this “needs to be talked about” episode, we're diving into the first part of a two-part journey of spiritual liberation on how to break free from guilt when it comes to choosing your own spiritual or religious path, and stepping more confidently into your own spiritual power. It's about choosing your path and your relationship with your higher power, not because you “should” but because it feels right for you. We’ll explore how to let go of the fear of judgment and rejection when you embrace beliefs that feel true to you, without the weight of societal or family expectations. This is about embracing spirituality or religion that’s based on love, not fear—choosing beliefs that nurture your soul and help you connect with your higher power on your own terms.

Welcome to the very first episode of Spiritual Growth & Wine! We’re kicking things off with a glass of bubbly Prosecco and setting the stage for an exciting blend of self-discovery, transformation, and—yes—wine!

Think of this episode as your first sip of what’s to come—an adventure that pairs wine with personal growth and meaningful change.

THANK YOU for joining me on this fun and deeply transformative ride! Healing doesn’t have to be all painful and sad - there’s joy and love in there, too!

With gratitude - Denise Marsh
