Dr. Davina’s Dots
Friendly Fire
Season 5, Ep. 37
•
Welcome to Dr. Davina's Dots where each show is a soul-nourishing journey of inspiration and relaxation. In today's episode, I delve into the interesting concept of friendly fire and the perils of placing trust in the wrong hands. Drawing from my own experiences in the military, I'll guide you through an analogy that brings the idea of friendly fire into the context of our everyday lives. Just as soldiers must be vigilant of threats from unexpected sources within their own ranks, so too must we remain vigilant in discerning the true intentions of those around us.
Whether you're seeking inspiration, enlightenment, or simply a moment of tranquility, our blend of inspirational narratives and calming tunes promises to uplift your spirit and rejuvenate your mind.

19. Be Spontaneous
01:00:00||Season 6, Ep. 19Today, Dr. Davina explores a habit we all fall into: resisting spontaneity. We tend to cling to routines, schedules, and plans because the unknown feels risky, uncertain, and uncomfortable. But what if avoiding spontaneity is keeping us from the very opportunities we’re longing for? Dr. Davina reminds us that spontaneity isn’t about being reckless, it’s about being open. When you step outside of routine, you step into possibility. In those unplanned moments, doors open, connections are made, and opportunities appear that you never could have scripted.She also challenges the belief that safety and predictability equal success. Instead, she explains how the courage to say “yes” to the unexpected can unlock creativity, spark new relationships, and reveal paths you didn’t even know existed. Spontaneity doesn’t remove the unknown, it transforms it into potential.In this episode of Dr. Davina’s Dots, you’ll hear a spoken message paired with soothing jazz designed to help you pause, reflect, and reimagine what’s possible when you embrace the unplanned. This reflective mix of words and music will encourage you to let go of resistance, open yourself to spontaneity, and discover new paths of creativity, connection, and courage.Musical Selections include:Slow it DownJudah Sealy ShimmerMerlin Devine Reverse Marcus Anderson Curiosity Rene Junior Be Blessed (No Stress) Bob Baldwin Kickin itJeff Lorber If I could fly Vincent Ingala Bright Moments Ahead Michael Ross Let it Flow Eric Darius LemonadeJeff Logan Thrill Ride Ragan Whiteside The night is long Pavel M Next Time Julian Vaughn Jeff Logan Indigo
