Thank you for visiting my little corner of the web! I started this site a long time ago (when I was 14!) to gain a sense of style. Since then, Wise Soul has become a place to share tips on living life confidently and authentically, styling yourself, and becoming the best version of you. I do this because I love sharing advice, life lessons, and pretty imagery.
The name Wise Soul is what I've been called from a very young age. I have always just been really mature and it kind of stuck. I think it fits well with the blog because of the "wisdom" I share and the bohemian and earthy lifestyle I live.
My goal and hope is that you leave Wise Soul feeling inspired and ready to live your life more fully.
I'm from the green suburbs of Nashville, Tennessee. I've got no accent to prove it, but I always have an appetite for pulled pork, cornbread, and grits. I grew up in a super musical/performer family. From year one of my life, I had a camera on me daily, thanks to my scrapbook-savvy momma. I knew how to "cheese" for the camera before I could even talk. Perhaps that's why I feel so comfy in front of the lens. A true creative and torn ambivert, I spent my teens figuring out my style (on this here blog), selling vintage clothes, learning Photoshop and HTML, as well as performing in musicals and show choir.
Since then, I've moved to Utah to pursue many different avenues, including: acting, social media marketing, photography, styling, Instagram trainings, singing, modeling, and photo producing. On any given day, I'm freelancing in any of those fields or working on my own personal projects for Wise Soul. You can see my portfolio and other fun things on my personal website.
P.S. If you don't know where to begin, here is a list of some of the most popular and helpful articles.

text: This descriptive survey discussed career paths available for Clothing and Textiles/Fashion students in the garment and textile production industries. Data was collected from a total population of 80 respondents, comprising 62 students, 12 entrepreneurs and 6 teachers. The data was collected using open-ended interview guides and questionnaire. It examined available career opportunities and how curriculum content reflects the needs of industry. Data were analyzed using frequency counts and percentages. The result shows that students are not aware of some career opportunities in both the textile and garment industries. Although the content of the curriculum reflected the needs of industry, the students could not connect those to career paths.

Snake in the toilet – scream (loudly) and make your husband take it outside (but don't let him kill it because the snake has as much right to be there as you do, even if it IS scary and inconvenient). *I have to edit this, because while I would have rather done it this way, I ended up having to remove said snake myself!
Dogs will eat just about anything. This is not always a good thing.

About me
I have always been dubbed "the connector" by friends, family and co-workers. When meeting someone for the first time, I can't help but immediately visualize how they can be of help to someone else, and vice versa - which lets face it, is kinda useful! Growing up in Las Vegas, I went on to study Film at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles and had the privilege of working with A-list Hollywood talent in several capacities, including at the top tier talent agency ICM Partners (yes, it's REALLY like "Entourage"). It was here that I learned all about creating and nurturing long term client relationships. I live in Melbourne with my husband and I am slowly adjusting to Melbourne coffee (it's a decaf chai latte with almond milk - don't judge me). As an Account Director I am here to to support, nurture and facilitate the expansion and execution of my clients' business visions within the digital landscape. Call me and let's go for chai lattes!
Thank you!

We thank God and celebrate the growth of our readership in the last 12 months.
"Gospel, identity and coexistence" were the themes of the General Assembly of the Spanish Evangelical Alliance. Two days in Palma de Mallorca to reflect about the role of evangelical churches in society.
A generation that accepts uncritically that 'you can't say that' will slide from unwillingness to inability to disagree with or critique the propaganda it is relentlessly fed.
God is not an idea. Or concept. Or system of doctrines. Or force.
Why would someone take their life and the lives of people they have never met, including an 8-year old girl, in the most despicable way? What were they hoping to achieve?
Instead of logos and pathos, Aristotle chose instead ethos: the speaker's character.
While his powerful use of the new technology of printing, his appeal to the masses and opposition to the 'corrupt elites' certainly resonate with the populist image, his goal was to reform, not overthrow, the established order.
Apparently, we all agree that the value of a person doesn't depend as much from their doing as from their being. But, what does the world understand by being?
Have I ever felt hated or rejected or made fun of? Yes, I have.
Dave Patty, President of Josiah Venture, about some of the challenges the continent faces.
Michael Oh, Os Guiness, René Breuel, Rebecca Manley Pippert, Mutua Mahiani, Anne Zaki, Ravi Zacharias and others shared their views at the Lausanne Movement Younger Leaders Gathering in Jakarta (Indonesia).
EEA's secretary general Thomas Bucher thinks "evangelicals have to influence society on all different levels."
We summarize some of the ideas shared by theologian José de Segovia, in Spain's conference Forum GBU. About 500 Evangelicals reflected on how the gospel connects to social areas like Work, Politics, Finance, Education and Arts.

'Dries Van Noten par Frederic Malle' is a brand new perfume, released in March 2013 from the luxury fragrance house 'Editions de Parfums Frederic Malle'. Malle's grandfather founded Christian Dior Perfumes and his mother later worked as an Art Director for the same perfume house. Federic is definitely a man with perfume in his blood, when recently, decided to shift his focus from collaborating with perfumers to working with fashion designers. The first designer he chose for this new line would be Dries Van Noten.
The description of the fragrance on Frederic Malle's website explains all the fuzz and to us makes the absolute "sense": "A perfume built around natural sandalwood, chosen for its softness and its character, and the fact that it is simultaneously exotic and evocative of the tradition of great classic perfumes. This very short formula made of very precious materials, generates a sober but distinct sensuality. It is, in my eyes, a fair parallel to Dries van Noten's world".
Why is this fragrance so special? Find out here:

Vishnu Kumar Raju Vs Bonda Uma Over YSRCP MLAs Issue - ABN

Vishnu Kumar Raju has demanded to make a new act otherwise for allowing the opposition leaders as ministers for which Bonda Uma said it is his personal opinion but not BJP's. He said confidently that the migrated leaders will win the elections with high majority even if they go for by elections in places like Nandyal and Kakinada.

text: I was excited to try a poke bowl, from the best place in the city: Poke Guys. It sounded like a more manageable sushi burrito. Plus the honey ginger and crab slaw one sounded amazing. What we did not realize was that you don't just order the bowl, it's like Subway in that you choose toppings and sauce. I was holding a table so Brent ordered for me- we had not coordinated, he just guessed what I would like. He ordered a mayo sauce for mine. At first it was great, I was loving every bite of my bowl. I liked the fish, the edamame beans were great and the seaweed was awesome. But soon it became stomach churning. You see, the crab coleslaw also had mayo in it. And soon I felt like all I was eating was mayo. I ate around it, focusing on the fish, beans and seaweed but soon all I had was crab slaw and mayo on top of rice. It was still really good and I would happily go back there again. Just with less mayo sauces.

M atagorda has long been known for great kayak fishing, and now it has a business that offers kayak fishing rental, instruction, and guide service.
Matagorda Adventure Company started in March 2016 with new Wilderness Systems Tarpon 120 kayaks, Hobie Mirage Drive kayaks, life jackets, Warner paddles, dry bags, and trolley anchor systems to rent. Kayak fishing enthusiasts.
Clay and Christy Bishop own and manage Matagorda Adventure Company. They are certified by The American Red Cross in Wilderness First Aid and CPR They are Level 3 Sit on Top Coastal Kayak Instructors with the American Canoe Association. In addition, they are licensed by Texas Parks & Wildlife as fishing guides for paddle craft.
Christy recommends that people who have never been kayaking, but would like to become kayak anglers, begin by taking their Quick Start class. In the class the new kayaker will learn proper form and technique, which will give him or her the ability to safely cover long distances and paddle in various conditions. The class costs $75 and kayak rental for the class is $35.
When you are comfortable with paddling, it is time to take up kayak fishing. The best way to do this is to book a guided trip with Clay and Christy. Christy suggests that you use their rods, reels, and tackle when you go on your guided kayak fishing trip because they provide the proper equipment, and rig it correctly.
They can also offer advice about what fishing equipment to buy. They do not sell fishing equipment, but do sell fishing shirts and t-shirts, bug spray, and sun screen. Fishing equipment, kayak, life jacket, paddle, and anchor system are included on a guided trip. An all-day guided kayak fishing trip costs $350 for two people and two additional people can come for $50 each (maximum of four people).
Even though Clay and Christy have only been offering kayak fishing services in Matagorda for a little less than a year, they have satisfied customers returning and using their services. Their Facebook, Yelp, and Trip Advisor pages all have five star ratings.
For the kayak angler who does not own or want to own a kayak, Matagorda Adventure Company will deliver your kayak and accessories to the location and time of your choice and pick them up when you are finished.
The rental fee is $40 for a Wilderness Systems Tarpon 120 kayak for a half day, or $55 for a full day or $55 for a half day and $70 for a full day for a Hobie Mirage pedal drive kayak. If you rent a house and stay in Matagorda for several days, Clay and Christy will deliver kayaks to the house and extend a discount for multiple day rentals.
The Matagorda Adventure Company web site is: www.matagordaadventures.com. The website is very thorough, showing paddling trails including GPS coordinates, photos, videos, explanations of classes, rentals, guiding services, and other useful kayak fishing information.
In the month of January Clay and Christy suggest kayak fishing at Three Mile Lake, or Parker's Cut when the tide is moving.
One of my favorite kayak fishing memories took place in Parker's cut in the winter. It was on a foggy day, and the tide was moving in. The water was very clear and 62°F. As I approached a bayou that was about 20 feet wide, I saw splashes, swirls, redfish tails, and little shrimp jumping. I cast a gold spoon beyond the activity, brought it back quickly, and kept my rod tip high to make the spoon run in the shallow water without getting hung up on weeds or oysters.
The swirling spoon went past the redfish and the fight was on. Then it repeated two more times. Two of the reds were 23 inches and one was 24 inches.
My wife and I paddled Three Mile Lake one January when the wind was blowing strong from the north and the water temperature was in the 50s. We found lots of flounders, albeit little flounders. We had to work our Norton Sand Eel soft plastic lures very slowly over the bottom. Nearly every cast we got a bite or hooked up. It was fun. We put all but one back because they were undersized. The larger males and the mature females go offshore in the winter, so we had found where the juvenile flounders were on that January day.
If you are an experienced kayak angler, have a look at the kayak fishing launch spots shown on Matagorda Adventure Company's website. You will find some fishing spots that will intrigue you. If you are a beginner, take advantage of the services that Clay and Christy offer to help you enjoy your kayak fishing experience even more.
Email Mike Price at
Three Mile Lake is also called Spring Lake. It used to be three miles from the vehicle entrance to the beach near the Matagorda jetties, but now the entrance has changed, and it is 1.2 miles east of the entrance to the beach. Don't even try to get back there without a four wheel drive vehicle. You can see an aerial photo of this spot on Matagorda Adventure Company's website. You will find that one lake goes south, another southwest, and a third is on the west side and goes south into East Matagorda Bay. Bank anglers as well as kayak anglers will find this a good place to fish in January because the water is a foot or two deeper. Therefore it's a little warmer than most of East Matagorda Bay, and that attracts fish.

Videography of Waqf properties in Rajasthan
The Milli Gazette
Published Online: Mar 19, 2011
Print Issue: 16-28 February 2011
Jaipur: Rajasthan government has taken a decision to get all Waqf properties in the state videographed in order to protect them from illegal occupation. In the first stage about 3000 Waqf properties in the state will be videographed. In the whole state there are more than 20 thousand Waqf properties but in most of the places they are illegally occupied. The difficulty is that Waqf properties are not mentioned in the revenue records because of which these can be, and are, easily occupied illegally. The state government has made all preparations to get the Auqaf department computerised at a cost of Rs 30 lakh. Minister incharge of Waqf Department, Ameen Khan after discussing this problem with the officials of Waqf Board and other departments associated with Waqf had issued instructions to get all records of Waqf properties such as lands, buildings, places of worship, graveyards etc. rectified and updated and get them included in revenue records. Meanwhile, the minister, Ameen Khan has stated that disputes regarding Waqf properties in matters of rents etc will be decided by Lok Adalats for which special committees will be appointed whose members will be selected representatives like local sarpanchs and MLAs. The minister said that most of the disputes about Waqf properties are at places where prices of Waqf properties are very high. He said that a new policy for assessment of rents, based on a scientific method and study was devised and announced in July 2010. He said that legal assistance will be provided for quick disposal of pending cases of disputes so that the deserving persons, i.e., poor and needy people, widows, madrasas, orphanages etc could get the benefits accruing from these properties.

Microblading is one of the hottest trends in beauty today and it is ideal for anyone wanting to enhance the look of their eyebrows, especially for those with little to no hair. Unlike traditional machine applied permanent makeup, microblading is applied manually by using a tool to tattoo fine eyebrow hairs into your own eyebrows, creating the appearance of the full, perfectly shaped eyebrows you've always wanted! When performed correctly by a qualified microblading artist, it is difficult to tell the difference between your real hairs and the microbladed strokes.Book Now
Stop struggling with the extra time and effort required to apply and reapply your makeup each day… Plus, get that look you really desire, performed by a trained professional.

Watch: Is this one of the luckiest penalties ever scored?
Diego Campillo's spot-kick for Chivas' under-17s appeared to have soared up off the bar to safety – but his luck was in.
A young footballer's luck was well and truly in as his penalty ricocheted in off the bar in extraordinary fashion.
Diego Campillo was playing for Chivas' under-17 side against Lobos BUAP when the game went to a penalty shoot-out.
Posted by Chivas TV on Saturday, April 6, 2019
Comparte este video si quieres tener la suerte de Campillo en tu día. ����
He appeared to have made a mess of his spot-kick as the ball soared up off the bar and away from goal.
But somehow the ball swerved back towards goal and dropped out of the sky to bounce and spin over the line.

How Michigan physician scientists are saving kids' lives through translational research

As a pediatric heart specialist, Dr. Steven Lipshultz has taken pride in the work he's done to help kids here in metro Detroit. He's also shed plenty of tears with families of children he couldn't help.
At one point, those tears became a catalyst for action. Lipshultz, a skilled physician scientist, recognized he had the ability to keep more kids alive by taking what he saw in clinical practice into the research lab for a deeper dive.
This is a story about the power of translational, or "bedside to bench," research—when a clinical physician observes firsthand a medical issue requiring research, then personally seeks a solution in the laboratory.
What Lipshultz saw at the bedside was the advent of multi-agent chemotherapy, lifesaving drugs that helped kids survive leukemia and other childhood cancers. He also saw the deadly side effects of those drugs. In essence, children were overcoming cancer, but the drugs they needed for survival were damaging their hearts.
"The price of the cure is that these medications are not exclusively restricted to killing cancer cells," Lipshultz says. "They will kill any call that is rapidly dividing. … [Children] didn't die of cancer, but of heart failure. It's a very tragic substitution of one disease for another."
Lipshultz, who is a pediatric cardiologist at Children's Hospital of Michigan (CHM) and interim director of the Children's Research Center of Michigan (CRCM), recalls one patient with neuroblastoma, a type of cancer that affects nerve cells, whose heart failed after cancer treatment.
"She died in front of me. You never forget that," Lipshultz says. " She was 16 years old, with decades of active, productive life ahead of her."
This was a turning point in Lipshultz's career that would make a lifesaving difference to children with cancer, not just here in Michigan, but across the globe.
The value of translational research
One of a relatively small number of medical professionals trained in both clinical and research medicine, Lipshultz set himself a goal to discover a treatment that wouldn't destroy the hearts of kids treated with chemotherapy.
"I made a promise that I would do whatever I could through translational research to say we could get the best cures for cancer, and at the same time, avoid toxicity and late effects of cancer therapies," Lipshultz says.

Through intensive, years-long research into the mechanism by which the chemotherapy drugs were damaging to heart cells, Lipshultz, who is also a professor at Wayne State University School of Medicine, tested cells in culture dishes, then in treatment models in lab animals, observing 200 different drugs. When he found one that was effective, he sought funding for multicenter, randomized clinical trials from the National Cancer Institute.
Because the trial was so successful,
the government urged Lipshultz to publish data
, even before the trial's conclusion. In 2014, the FDA granted "orphan" status to the drug, used as treatment for disease that affects fewer than 200,000 people per year. By 2017, the drug protocol was also approved for use in Europe for children newly diagnosed with cancer that would receive heart-damaging chemotherapy.
Today, kids have a much better chance of surviving chemo, thanks to Lipshultz's "bedside to bench" research.
A rare combination of skills
Translational pediatric physician-scientists must have an understanding of basic scientific research, their field of expertise, and the potential impact a discovery can have on disease in a pediatric patient. Some run carefully constructed clinical trials to test drugs in a lab setting based directly on the needs they see in patients they care for every day. That is a relevant connection to patients that even doctorate-level researchers don't have.
"What's fundamental about translational research is it is part of a continuum of research that gets new therapies and new understandings important in outcomes to the patient," says Dr. Valerie Paula Opipari, pediatric hematologist and oncologist, and chair of the Department of Pediatrics at C. S. Mott Children's Hospital in Ann Arbor.
Pediatric translational research has ushered in effective treatments for many childhood illnesses, to the point that seasoned pediatricians have seen dramatic changes in survival rates just during their own careers.
When Opipari started practicing, the majority of childhood cancers were not curable. Leukemia, for example, had a 15 percent survival rate. Today, five-year survival rates are between 60 and 85 percent, depending on the type of leukemia, according to the American Cancer Society.
"In virtually every discipline in pediatric medicine, that is the story," says Opipari. "With cystic fibrosis, most didn't make it past their second decade. Now we have many living into their sixth decade because of translational research."
Where there were no treatments or cures for hypoplastic left heart syndrome, a congenital defect that causes an underdeveloped left side of the heart, today there are three surgical procedures, and patients now in their fifth decade of life.
"In pediatrics, translational research has been critical," says Opipari.
More funding needed
In a medical model that requires physicians to spend time with patients and then bill for their services, health systems rarely have funding for even highly skilled physician scientists to spend time in a laboratory setting, regardless of the potential for breakthrough cures. Pediatric specialists agree that research is grossly underfunded.
"Part of it is numbers," says Dr. Jeffrey Taub, oncology division chief at CHM. He cites childhood cancer, which accounts for 2 percent of all cancers, as an example.

"At the funding level, as the government cuts back on research, they think they should fund proportionate to the number of cases. If a disease affects 400 kids a year, why spend millions on research, compared to a disease that affects 50 million people a year? Children don't vote, and they are not advocates for themselves."
In addition, panels that award funding aren't always staffed by pediatric specialists, or those who understand the critical importance of pediatric research.
Stagnant federal funding makes recruiting research talent challenging, despite local economic growth stimulated by funding. According to the American Society of Clinical Oncology, every dollar of federal funding
stimulates $2.21 in economic growth
. Just 12 percent of new research grant proposals were funded by the National Cancer Institute in 2015, down from 27 percent in 2001.
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) funds 3 to 5 percent of pediatric cancer research, leaving a dependence on private and foundation funding, even though discoveries made in pediatrics have implications for adult disease.
"If the NIH were to take that funding to 20 or 25 percent, imagine what could be accomplished, and what an impact that could make on adult disease," says Opipari.
Michigan's future of translational research
After spending years in a translational research environment at Boston Children's Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Lipshultz arrived at CHM, where there was no such program. Through a relationship between CHM and CRCM, with funding from the
Children's Hospital of Michigan Foundation
, Lipshultz has been able to establish a supportive environment to train pediatric physician scientists.
Last year, a two-center proposal between the programs at University of Michigan and Wayne State University was granted funding by the government for three physician scientists, and a fourth will be funded by U-M.
It takes about 10 years to become fluent in both clinical and laboratory research. But Lipshultz thinks the outcome is worth the time spent.
"Continued support of the Children's Research Center of Michigan might lead to new therapies we can't possibly imagine today," he says. "We don't yet have every child going home for a long, healthy life, so there is much more than needs to be done. Translational research is about as important as it gets."

Monica Seles is a former Yugoslavian tennis sensation who became the youngest female player to rank World No. 1, at the age of 17. Born in Yugoslavia, Seles was a wunderkind who began playing tennis at the age of five, soon becoming the best junior player of the country. Upon winning a junior tournament in Florida, Seles was spotted by the tennis coach Nick Bollettieri who approached her to join his academy, where she excelled at her game. Seles emerged as a tennis star when she became the youngest ever winner of the French Open, at the age of 16, beating Steffi Graf. From 1991 to 1993, she dominated women's tennis and won nine Grand Slam titles which included the Australian Open four times, the French Open three times and the US Open twice. Known for her aggressive playing style and the unique grunts she made with nearly every shot, she became the youngest ever singles player to rank number one in the world. In 1993, Seles was heading towards unprecedented success until her career came to a sudden halt when she was stabbed in the back by a deranged fan of Steffi Graf. While recovering from the tragic incident, Seles remained away from tennis for two years. Although, later she returned to achieve some further success but was unable to regain her earlier form as a dominant player and officially retired in 2008. Regarded by many to be the first female power player, Seles is considered one of the all-time greats of the game.

By Cristóbal de Molina, Brian S. Bauer, Vania Smith-Oka, Gabriel E. Cantarutti
Just a couple of many years after the Spanish conquest of Peru, the 3rd Bishop of Cuzco, Sebastián de Lartaún, referred to as for a file at the non secular practices of the Incas. The file used to be ready through Cristóbal de Molina, a clergyman of the sanatorium for the Natives of Our woman of Succor in Cuzco and Preacher common of town. Molina was once an exceptional Quechua speaker, and his complex language talents allowed him to interview the older indigenous males of Cuzco who have been one of the final surviving eyewitnesses of the rituals performed on the peak of Inca rule. therefore, Molina's account preserves a vital first-hand checklist of Inca non secular ideals and practices.This quantity is the 1st English translation of Molina's Relación de las fábulas y ritos de los incas considering that 1873 and comprises the 1st authoritative scholarly remark and notes. The paintings opens with a number of Inca production myths and outlines of the most important gods and shrines (huacas). Molina then discusses an important rituals that happened in Cuzco in the course of every month of the yr, in addition to rituals that weren't tied to the ceremonial calendar, akin to beginning rituals, girl initiation rites, and marriages. Molina additionally describes the Capacocha ritual, within which all of the shrines of the empire have been provided sacrifices, in addition to the Taqui Ongoy, a millennial circulation that unfold around the Andes through the overdue 1560s based on starting to be Spanish domination and speeded up violence opposed to the so-called idolatrous religions of the Andean peoples.

They say that all the Cañaris descend [from] these brothers and sisters, the children of this huacamaya, who spread across the province of Cañaribamba. Thus they hold the hill called Huacayñan as a huaca and they [hold] the huacamayas in great veneration. 23 During the day they did not eat, and at night they were watching the stars to such a degree that the shepherd who took care of them asked them what was happening. 24 Thus, having heard this, the shepherd dis12 ] Account of the Fables and Rites of the incas cussed it with his six sons and daughters, and they decided to gather as much food and livestock as they could, and [then] they climbed a very high hill called Ancasmarca.
