What does it mean to live slowly? Join us as we welcome Jodi H. Grubbs, author of "Live Slowly: A Gentle Invitation to Exhale," who shares how her formative experiences by the sea on a Caribbean island shaped her understanding of solitude and spiritual growth. In Part 1, Jodi opens her heart about her first husband's tragic accident and recovery journey, which ultimately led to his very unexpected death—all within the first two years of their marriage.

Discover the importance of recognizing personal capacity to avoid burnout and live a fulfilling life. We also explore the fear of slowing down and the importance of community and solitude in this journey. Drawing parallels to the transformation of sea glass, Jodi eloquently speaks on how hardship can lead to a beautiful renewal. This enriching conversation is a gentle reminder to embrace slow living and find stillness, even amid life's challenges.
