As we wrap the end of the year, Nicole and I have been thinking about what we could bring to you in 2022.

In this episode, Nicole introduced the topic of play and how we can cultivate a play practice in our lives as well as how it shows up even in natural and intuitive ways throughout our daily lives. Listen to how you can adopt a play practice and reclaim your inner child.

Going into 2022, you’ll hear a bit more one-on-one episodes with us and the themes of life we witness in daily conversations, what stories are inspiring us and what courageous acts empower us to keep moving forward.

Thank you for all the love you’ve shown us these last 3 seasons and cheers to an updated era of Inspired Courage. Stay tuned dear friends!

Much love and Happy New Year,

Marko and Nicole
