In this episode recorded during a snowy winter walk, I'm sharing the huge announcement I've been building toward - and it starts with a powerful truth: awareness isn't enough. You can't think your way into change. I'm opening up about why support is the missing piece in our transformation, sharing a "weird woo" meditation experience that reminded me why community is non-negotiable, and officially announcing that Mothering Ourselves Mindfully is opening for enrollment! This is where The School of Mom began in 2020, and it's coming back more refined, more embodied, and more essential than ever.

1. Why awareness alone isn't enough - you can't think your way into lasting change
2. The reality that our conscious mind is only 5-10% of our experience - the rest is driven by our nervous system
3. The flip side of unsubscribing: What do you want to subscribe to instead?
4. Why unsubscribing from the belief that you can do this alone is the most important unsubscription
5. How my body speaks in full movies and visions during somatic meditation
6. The powerful meditation vision: flying alone through the storm vs. sitting in circle with other women, stoking our inner light
7. Why the only way to fly through life's weather is to first sit in circle and become the light
8. The truth that we don't have many models of emotionally attuned, grounded adults in our lives
9. You get to be the unicorn - and actually, you have to be, because no one else is stepping up
10. Why you can only give to others what you can give to yourself (backed by my entire grad school thesis!)
11. How every time we teach or hear something, we're different people - that's why repetition isn't redundant, it's essential
12. The urgency and timeliness of this work for your lineage - we don't have time to put it off

"Awareness isn't enough. Awareness of why we do the things we do and what we're supposed to do to change it is not enough."

"The missing piece in all of this is support."

"If you are listening and you get to be [a unicorn], I want you to actually feel pride in the responsibility that you actually have to be, because we need grounded, attuned, steady adults in our world right now."

"You can only be as compassionate to someone else, you can only love someone else, as much as you are compassionate and love yourself."

"I am walking this walk with you. I am not gonna sit in a circle with you and try to support you in releasing your shame if I haven't been able to do that myself."

"We don't have time to say, I don't have time for that. We don't have time to put it off. And now is the time."

"Why not be the mom that triggers people when you're like, 'You know what? I just don't feel busy. I sleep really well.' You're not saying it to make someone feel bad, but you're being the unicorn."
