Today I wanted to give you something a little different. I was feeling a little low this week and overall sick and tired of myself. But I called up my friend, Kyle, one of my dearest friends who I met on my Vipassana retreat in Thailand.

Kyle and I always have great open hearted conversations and I love catching up with him to talk about where we are in life. I decided I wanted to share our conversation with you as a way to cheer myself up but also to break away from the interview format a bit.

Here are some topics that we cover in this conversation:

- Our shared experience at the Vipassana retreat.

- What we think about the innocent flirting in our friendships.

- Kyle's "Eat Pray Love" trip and how he healed a chronic pain disease called Ankylosing Spondylitis.

- His experience with being an adopted child and meeting his biological parents for the first time.
