Beach Sleep Stories: The Whisper of Seashells

<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/357242/open_sms">Send us a text</a>If you love beach stories, ocean healing, and soulful conversations about life and wellness, this episode will speak to you. In this episode of The Beach Speaks, Paige talks with Ameesah Cotten, a graduate of George Washington University’s School of Public Health, and lifelong beach lover whose connection to the ocean began before her first birthday. From discovering the healing power of salt water as a child to finding clarity and renewal by the waves, Ameesah shares how the beach continues to guide her journey of flow, surrender, and self-discovery. Together, Paige and Ameesah explore the intersection of mental clarity, nature, and personal health - and how the beach reminds us of our deep interconnectedness with one another and the world around us. About Ameesah:Ameesah Cotten is a graduate of George Washington University's School of Public Health with a lifelong connection to the ocean that began at 10 months old during my first trip to Jamaica. Growing up with eczema, her mom introduced me to the therapeutic properties of salt water and sand exfoliation, fostering an early appreciation for the ocean. She finds that proximity to large bodies of water provides her with mental clarity and restoration, particularly during demanding periods in life. Ameesha strongly believes the ocean serves as a powerful reminder of our interconnectedness with water and the natural world. Whether she's reading, people-watching, or simply listening to the rhythm of the waves, the beach remains her most reliable space for reflection and renewal. Follow Ameesah on Instagram <a href='https://www.instagram.com/samplesizeofonepod/'>@samplesizeofonepod</a>   PODCAST LINKS: <ul> <li> Leave a review! on <a href='https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-beach-speaks/id1466438778'>Apple</a> and <a href='https://open.spotify.com/show/4CyJJ68OUUpCIK3C5iqzRJ'>Spotify</a> and share it with your friends!</li> <li> Want to share your beach story? <a href='https://thebeachspeaks.com/contact'>https://thebeachspeaks.com/contact</a> </li> <li> Purchase your Beach Speaks coastal essence room spray! <a href='https://sahuoils.com/meagld'>https://sahuoils.com/meagld</a> </li> <li> Support the podcast on Patreon! <a href='https://www.patreon.com/user?u=77845359'>https://www.patreon.com/user?u=77845359</a> </li> <li> Subscribe to the Podcast: <a href='https://the-beach-speaks.onpodium.com/'>https://thebeachspeaks.com/</a> </li> <li> Listen and Subscribe on <a href='https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZZWyY49oYPUzz0zHoHizHQ'>YouTube</a> </li> <li> Instagram <a href='https://www.instagram.com/thebeachspeaks/'>https://www.instagram.com/thebeachspeaks/</a> </li> <li> Facebook <a href='https://www.facebook.com/TheBeachSpeaks'>https://www.facebook.com/TheBeachSpeaks</a> </li> </ul>

It mirrored the turbulence of our world and reminded me of the grounding peace we can always return to. In this episode, I share a story that begins with a sunrise at the beach, drifts into memories of childhood swimming in the Pacific, and flows into lessons on how to move through chaos with grace. What You’ll Hear In This Episode:<ul><li>How the Gulf’s ever-changing waves whispered lessons about life’s rhythm and flow.</li><li>A memory of diving under towering Pacific swells, and what it still teaches me today.</li><li>The way seaweed, sandbars, and shifting tides reveal hidden truths about resilience.</li><li>Reflections on finding peace and grounding when the world feels heavy and chaotic.</li><li>Gentle reminders from the beach that emotional healing is possible, wave after wave.</li></ul>PODCAST LINKS: <ul> <li> Leave a review! on <a href='https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-beach-speaks/id1466438778'>Apple</a> and <a href='https://open.spotify.com/show/4CyJJ68OUUpCIK3C5iqzRJ'>Spotify</a> and share it with your friends!</li> <li> Want to share your beach story? <a href='https://thebeachspeaks.com/contact'>https://thebeachspeaks.com/contact</a> </li> <li> Purchase your Beach Speaks coastal essence room spray! <a href='https://sahuoils.com/meagld'>https://sahuoils.com/meagld</a> </li> <li> Support the podcast on Patreon! <a href='https://www.patreon.com/user?u=77845359'>https://www.patreon.com/user?u=77845359</a> </li> <li> Subscribe to the Podcast: <a href='https://the-beach-speaks.onpodium.com/'>https://thebeachspeaks.com/</a> </li> <li> Listen and Subscribe on <a href='https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZZWyY49oYPUzz0zHoHizHQ'>YouTube</a> </li> <li> Instagram <a href='https://www.instagram.com/thebeachspeaks/'>https://www.instagram.com/thebeachspeaks/</a> </li> <li> Facebook <a href='https://www.facebook.com/TheBeachSpeaks'>https://www.facebook.com/TheBeachSpeaks</a> </li> </ul>

Same. As someone who’s been swimming most of my life, I often feel the pull of the ocean—but also the comfort of just being at the shoreline, soaking in the peace and calm.In this episode, I’m joined by my longtime friend and fellow swimmer, Jenn Yorzyk- Triger. Jenn and I swam together in college in the mid-80s, and while we lost touch after graduation, we reconnected in 2020—thank you, Facebook! While many of us were riding the pandemic struggle bus, Jenn was out there sharing workouts, mindset tips, and daily doses of motivation.Jenn’s love for open-water swimming has never faded (it has to be in her DNA—her father, Bill Yorzyk, was an Olympic gold medalist!). She brings so much wisdom, energy, and inspiration to this conversation, whether you’re a seasoned swimmer or just thinking about dipping a toe back in.So grab your swim cap and goggles, and let’s dive in.If this episode sparks something in you, share it with a friend!

<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/357242/open_sms">Send us a text</a>What if you could bottle the essence of the beach—the scent, the energy, the salt-kissed air?Jim Kupczyk, founder of Mindful Market and Sahu Sacred Oils, was one of my first guests on The Beach Speaks nearly six years ago, and now he's back to talk about our latest collaboration—capturing the scent of the beach in a “coastal essence spray.”While my podcast has shifted toward storytelling and deeper connections with the beach, Jim’s business has expanded into creating essential oil blends inspired by nature and ancient traditions.Jim shares his deep connection to the beach, shaped by his life near Lake Erie and his travels to beach destinations like Rio de Janeiro and Thailand. He talks about the meditative power of ocean sounds and how different beaches carry their own unique energy.The heart of our conversation is our recent collaboration: Beach Speaks - a coastal essence mist designed to capture the essence of the beach using rare oils sourced from Egypt. Listen as we dive into the creative process of blending scents that evoke the ocean’s brininess and earthy elements—without smelling like suntan lotion! Finding the right balance was challenging, especially replicating the smell of salt air.Our shared passion for mindfulness, the beach, and sensory experiences led to a product that serves as an extension of the podcast—helping you connect with the energy of the beach, even when you can’t be there physically.Now, with the Beach Speaks coastal essence mist, I have something especially beachy to share with you - and it’s a unique way you can support me! When you use my link below, the commission I earn from the sale of this product (or any other on the Sahu site) helps cover the cost of producing the podcast.Check it out and share it with another beach lover! LINK TO PURCHASE:<a href='https://sahuoils.com/products/the-beach-speaks?bg_ref=GTd3Y60nTa'> https://sahuoils.com/products/the-beach-speaks?bg_ref=GTd3Y60nTa</a> PODCAST LINKS: <ul> <li> Leave a review! on <a href='https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-beach-speaks/id1466438778'>Apple</a> and <a href='https://open.spotify.com/show/4CyJJ68OUUpCIK3C5iqzRJ'>Spotify</a> and share it with your friends!</li> <li> Want to share your beach story? <a href='https://thebeachspeaks.com/contact'>https://thebeachspeaks.com/contact</a> </li> <li> Purchase your Beach Speaks coastal essence room spray! <a href='https://sahuoils.com/meagld'>https://sahuoils.com/meagld</a> </li> <li> Support the podcast on Patreon! <a href='https://www.patreon.com/user?u=77845359'>https://www.patreon.com/user?u=77845359</a> </li> <li> Subscribe to the Podcast: <a href='https://the-beach-speaks.onpodium.com/'>https://thebeachspeaks.com/</a> </li> <li> Listen and Subscribe on <a href='https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZZWyY49oYPUzz0zHoHizHQ'>YouTube</a> </li> <li> Instagram <a href='https://www.instagram.com/thebeachspeaks/'>https://www.instagram.com/thebeachspeaks/</a> </li> <li> Facebook <a href='https://www.facebook.com/TheBeachSpeaks'>https://www.facebook.com/TheBeachSpeaks</a> </li> </ul>
