Welcome to Episode 8, our final episode of Two Wives and A SPARK Season 4!

Today we offer some thoughts and reflections on going inward as we navigate these complex times and prepare ourselves for this holiday season.

We invite you to listen in as we share:

• Our thoughts on this question from one of our wonderful listeners: "Two Wives and a Spark! Do you have Thanksgiving advice for everyone, I guess, but me specifically? I'm super down post-election and am not super excited about hosting people who voted for the felon…I am stressed about it."

• Some food for thought on boundaries

• And more

As we close out this season, we would truly love to hear from you. What would you like us to grapple with and explore in season 5? What questions are you sitting with? Anything else you wanna share?
