Griz inadvertently  pushes Joy into some deep processing. Nice going! 

Joy takes the time and space to do her personal work, which sounds a lot like what she tells her clients to do. It seems like everybody is winning these days.

Don't let the buzz word fool you, Self-Care isn't all bubble baths and chocolate bon-bons. Nope. The most effective forms of self-care also involve a big dose of tough love. 

Joy discusses the value of observing and embracing seasonal shifts in our lives...Griz not so much. We also discuss creative blocks and their possible purpose in the life of an artist. 

Joy does another sample session with Griz. This time around they talk about Griz's hang ups with offering proper condolences and where that comes from.

This episode contains some helpful responses to when things don't work out as we expect them to. 

Doing things the same old way because that's what's comfortable and that's how we've always done them isn't one of those pieces of advice. 

We can keep plodding down the same path that habit has made a rut of, but that's probably not getting us where we want to be, now is it? 

When the world goes sideways, it might be a good time to buy a cape, stretch out your arms, and forget about former pedestrian ways of life. Yes, this might mean that all that happens is that you're just wearing underwear over your tiger-striped leotard and wriggling around on your living room floor, but you definitely are one scooch closer to living your best life.

In this episode, Griz and I spin around a bicycle-as-growth metaphor, he tries to get me to reveal the intuitive process that I use when working with clients, and also gets me to talk about my most terrifying experience riding a bike.

The new format continues as I have Griz identify his long relationship with lower back pain. Fast driving and unreliable car metaphors pervade and it seems at some point in the ride a Tricky Little Elf has taken the wheel. A discussion, inspired by Raphael Cushnir's The One Thing Holding You Back, comes up. And we talk about what it is that Griz's back is trying to say to him.
