Have you ever wondered if your best years are behind you?

In this moving episode of Whispering From the Rowan Tree, Nell Rowan meets The Man Who Counted Time — a 76-year-old woodcarver who feels his usefulness has slipped away. He spends his days counting what’s left, until a quiet encounter with Nell, a few cards laid on the table, and a lantern of wisdom remind him that it is never too late to begin again.

This story blends the warmth of English village life with healing insight, folklore, and tarot — offering a tale of self-worth, grief, and the quiet courage it takes to keep carving beauty into the world.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• How aging and grief can feel like invisibility — and how to find meaning again

• A tarot reading that reframes time as purpose, not loss

• The healing power of small acts that ripple through a community

• A guided visualization with a sundial to help you rest in presence and possibility

If you’ve ever felt left behind, wondered if it’s too late, or longed to matter in quiet ways, this story is for you.

Press play, and let this tale remind you: the measure of life is not how much time is left, but what you choose to do with it.

Have you ever stood outside a door, heart racing, unsure if you could walk in?

In this heartfelt episode of Whispering From the Rowan Tree, Nell Rowan welcomes A Nervous First-Time Visitor — a man named Oliver, whose life has been shaped by self-doubt, watchfulness, and the quiet cost of nervousness carried since childhood.

What begins as a simple tarot reading becomes something deeper: not prophecy, but reflection — a mirror held up to the ways nervousness shapes who we are, how we love, and how we learn to trust ourselves again.

In this story, you’ll experience:

• A deeply relatable portrait of anxiety and self-doubt

• How childhood survival instincts follow us into adult life

• A tarot reading that reveals nervousness not as weakness, but as memory

• A quiet, healing conversation on self-trust and the bravery of showing up

• A soothing visualization to help you feel seen, safe, and enough

This episode is for anyone who has ever felt “too much” or “not enough,” for those who second-guess themselves in silence, and for anyone longing to know: you are not alone in your nervousness.

Press play, settle in, and let this story remind you that being here — exactly as you are — is already brave.
