We've had several requests to make Monday night's Nightly Nuance public. We hear that you want to be able to share this, but since there were such personal things shared in the comments, it didn't feel right to open that particular post to the public. So, here it is again for anyone who wants to share it with those outside our Patreon community. Also, as a reminder, this content is also available on Apple Podcasts Subscriptions where we offer a 2-week free trial.

Hello, my friends. I watched the Patreon comments on last week’s episodes and saw a recurring theme that I’ll summarize as “you aren’t making space for our feelings.”
