Today, I am celebrating my 100th episode of The Beach Speaks, and for some of you, that might not seem like a lot; however, for those who know me, this is quite a momentous event, especially when I look back at episode 50 when I almost quit. It is progress, not perfection, and I am so enjoying the journey!!

Speaking into a microphone has always been easy for me, but the rest of the production process has been a challenge to master. I learned A LOT - not just the tech but what I am truly capable of when I listen to the beach and step out of my comfort zone.

Like the ocean, the gratitude in my heart for how the beach speaks to me is deep and expansive. It connects us in many ways, and it is a joy to share it with you!

Instead of making this episode one of those highlight reels or best of, I decided to go back to the last 50 episodes and listen to my guests' responses to the question I always ask: How is the beach speaking to you today?

Listen as my guests share the many ways the beach is speaking to them - at the moment. The themes vary, from how they feel at the beach to precious memories of time spent there to how it speaks to the soul. The responses may vary, but one thing connects us all: the beach does speak - we only have to listen!

Have you ever felt the winter chill complicate your love for the beach?

In this episode of The Beach Speaks, I reflect on a cold December morning at the beach in North Florida, reminiscing about the tropical warmth of Costa Rica and my nostalgic trip to Puerto Rico in 1986.

From college swim team adventures on a semi-private beach in San Juan to savoring fresh pineapples and unforgettable connections, I recount my first tropical beach experience with vivid, sunlit nostalgia.

Special Announcement:
I’m thrilled to announce an upcoming project: a Beach Speaks room spray inspired by the serene scent of the shoreline!

Also, as we near the show's 100th episode milestone, I invite you to celebrate with me! Tell me, how is the beach speaking to you today? Send me an Email or Voicemail and I'll share it on the show.

Let this episode be your escape from winter’s chill, bringing the warmth and beauty of the beach closer to home.
