Feel This with Frank and Jess episodes

  • #53, Part 2 — Owning What’s Meaningful

    Jessica shares her experience with a Bobcat, twice in one day, and the meaning it had. Inevitably, when sharing a pivotal moment, others may get it and they may not. No matter which, how can we step into the absolute knowing that this is what this means to us? And whether we are feeling powerful or apologetic… can we allow and embrace all of our complexity and richness?
