In this heartfelt and reflective episode, we explore the dualities of human emotions—grief and joy, rupture and repair, vulnerability and strength—and how these contrasts shape our relationships and inner worlds. Together, we’ll navigate the complexities of emotional responses, from fight and flight to fawn and freeze, and discover how they serve as protective mechanisms.

Here’s what to expect:

• A grounding meditation to soothe your nervous system and reconnect with safety.
• Personal insights on embracing the dualities of life and holding space for emotional complexity.
• Practical tools for navigating rupture and repair in relationships, including playful approaches to communication.
• An invitation to notice your default responses in moments of intensity, with curiosity and compassion.
• Reflections on self-care, asking for help, and embracing the strength in vulnerability.

With a mix of grounding practices, storytelling, and humor, this episode offers you a safe space to reflect, connect, and move through life’s contrasts with grace and humanity. Join me as we journey together into the beautiful messiness of being human.
