It’s really easy to give people the highlight reel and act like everything is all hunky-dory, but that wouldn’t be authentic, and we’re all about authentic, so this episode is a bit of the Real Reel about some things Rebecca has been thinking and feeling during a bit of a hard season that a) we’ll all resonate with and b) are incredibly wise and things we should all keep in our back pockets.    (Remember, Cassidy from our team writes these show notes so this is not Rebecca writing in the third person so she’s allowed to call it like it is and tell you that this episode is a Good One.)    In this episode, we talk about some things that help keep us grounded and moving in the right direction, especially when things get tricky:

1. Having It All Together is a facade
2. How to offer support, and how not to
3. The importance of joy
4. Why it’s important that we share our appreciation
5. Why moving in is often the thing to do when we disagree
6. How to show ourselves the grace and kindness we deserve
7. Why your community needs YOU.
