Welcome to this week's mixed bag o' goodies. From trauma processing to FUMPOTD's, licked pork chops, wand games and botched barbershop "duets" (not a thing)...this episode is what we like to call planned ramblings. Also we have a report from Flourish Therapy about how many counseling sessions your Patreon tithing dollars paid for in 2020. Special thanks to all of our Patrons for their continued financial support. We couldn't do this without you!

This episode is all about our most recent guest's spiritual journey known as Evolutionary Astrology. Mary and Linda have known each other for nearly 30 years, and they talk about how they met, what brought Linda to Atlanta, GA, and what became a big part of Linda's karmic story: when her path intersected with the Indigo Girls. It's a fascinating conversation that we hope you enjoy.
