Hey there! I’m Colin. Most days, I’m absolutely loving life in Southern California. With a husband, 4 kiddos and a job as an educator, I’ve got my hands full. Lots of ‘wifing’, mothering (which-by the way-doesn’t end once children become legal-just saying/warning/advising), teaching, mentoring, daughtering, sistering and did I say ‘wifing’? Oh, I said that already, huh? 😉
My favorite pastime for the past 20 years has been attending conferences, workshops, webinars etc and listening to interviews, podcasts and panel discussions. I’ve gained so much information and insight via this outlet/hobby that I often find myself sharing with anyone who’ll listen.
A few years ago I had the vision of sharing a ‘wisdom chat’ via a Gut Punchers discussion forum, but life happened and stumbled in the way of the best-laid plans. I threw down the gauntlet after years of procrastination and gave myself a deadline of December 2017. With the deadline looming, I couldn’t wait to put some fantastic content together and get started; so here we are!! A little late, a bit ragged from the sprint…but we’ve arrived!! Woohoo!!
As you read this, I’m most probably drinking hibiscus tea or decaf coffee while eating snacks with my journal open. Need direction? Need some soul navigation? Relationship guidance? Self-care suggestions? Most likely it’s here in one of my journals. But don’t fret…I’m pouring from my soul and sharing my coveted journal content here at Gut Punchers for the Soul. Can’t wait to meet you in the Comments section. 🙂

Hello, I think your blog might be having browser compatibility issues.
When I look at your blog site in Opera, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping.
I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that,
superb blog!

Hi this is somewhat of off topic but I was
wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML.
I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding skills so I wanted
to get advice from someone with experience. Any help would
be greatly appreciated!

No coding skills needed when you use a platform like WordPress…try it! 🙂

Hmm it appears like your site ate my first comment (it was extremely long) so I guess
I’ll just sum it up what I had written and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying
your blog. I too am an aspiring blog blogger but
I’m still new to the whole thing. Do you have any tips and hints for newbie blog writers?
I’d certainly appreciate it.

Yesterday, while I was at work, my cousin stole my apple ipad and tested to see if it can survive
a 40 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My iPad is now destroyed and she has
83 views. I know this is completely off topic but I had to share it
with someone!

It’s actually very complex in this active life to listen news on Television, thus I just use
the web for that purpose, and take the latest news.

Ridiculous story there. What happened after? Take care!

By reading the blog post backward and starting from the latest post to eventually this post, I feel you give great guidance as an educator and as in individual as well. Putting your heart into well-crafted intricate sentences. Listening to your stories in the blog posts have been not only a pleasure to read and respond to, but the overall quality of learning and inspiration is over 9000. 😉
