In this episode Stacy reflects on some recent emotional heaviness, a surprising moment of peace by the river, and the power of reclaiming our own stories.

We revisit Medusa—not as a monster, but as a survivor and symbol of protection.

 It's about healing, rage, and the quiet signs that remind us we’re on the right path.

How do we find resilience in this most tumultuous time?

Meredith Heller is a poet, author, singer/songwriter, nature lover, and educator. We were first introduced to her last spring when I was approached by her publicist to help celebrate her new book, Writing By Heart.

Since that time, I’ve hopped aboard and joined her women’s poetry circles.

The more we get to know one another the more clear our connection becomes.

In this jam packed episode we chat about the mystery and medicine of being in creative community and how these communities matter now more than ever.

You’ll notice as you listen that she has the most lyrical—almost hypnotic speech pattern.  When you listen to her you can’t help but feel safe.

In this deeply personal episode, Stacy shares the journey of how the creative process and the act of performing can be incredibly healing. What started as a simple story about “kisses” turned into a powerful reflection on love, self-discovery, and the unexpected ways art has shaped her life. 

From childhood memories of feeling disconnected in the realm of romance to the surprising healing she's found while performing on stage, this episode explores the vulnerability and courage that art offers when you least expect it. 

Join Stacy as she reflects on how art, whether through writing, storytelling, or performing, can be a lifeline that leads us back to ourselves.

Welcome to a very special "Seasons of JOY" episode of full spirals.  This series got its name from a couple of places.  One is that my partner in these episodes is my friend Joy Jordan. The other is our shared belief in paying attention to the seasons–and how they effect our lives.  And dropping in—paying attention—is the key to a richer, more fulfilling life.
