When you have the sort of friends who help you make sense of the world, help you navigate your challenges, speak with you on the phone for hours as you talk through how to manage the difficult situation we find ourselves in now, hold space for you to grow and are wise and knowledgeable enough to help facilitate that growth, you just HAVE to make those conversations public.

Raine Dunn (from South Africa) and Melissa Eliyahoo (from Malibu, CA) are two of my closest and most valued friends. They may be on other sides of the world to me, but I don’t miss a week without speaking to them because they help keep me aligned and grounded and together we hash out and make sense of the madness, hold each other accountable for our growth and support one another.

• How do you manage your emotions and navigate your life when your views are so disparately opposite to that of the mainstream narrative that is driving everything?

• How do you remain in a state of calm and trust when your own truth is that crimes to humanity are being committed in front of our very eyes, and you feel as if the world and all logic and critical thinking are crumbling before you?

• How do we manage the frustration?

• Is there a reason it’s all happening?

• And is there a way to find the light amongst the darkness without falling into toxic positivity?

Raine and Melissa helped me answer those questions on this episode, and I’m so excited for you to listen.

Grab a cuppa, and join 3 girlfriends as they try to make sense of the world, together.
