“I write because I don’t know what I think until I read what I wrote” Flannery O’Connor

Join us in this week's episode as we continue to sow the seeds of self-compassion, accompanied by our insightful guest, Leif Holmes. Leif, a pastor with over 30 years of shared life experience with his wife, Laura, and raising three kids together, brings a unique perspective to our conversation.

Discover the beauty of journaling through Leif's lens—how it intertwines seamlessly with our self-care goals and the multitude of benefits he's unearthed through the practice.
