Today’s episode features back-to-back Commusings: In the first, Jeff muses on how a bout of childhood cancer transformed him. In the second, he muses on how doing hard things makes doing hard things (like going to the dentist, his least favorite activity), a bit easier.

Commusings are thoughtful essays and short-form reflections on spirituality, philosophy, health, and culture. Sign up for the Commusings newsletter at onecommune.com or connect with us on Instagram at @onecommune or @jeffkrasno for more musings and quotes.
