  • Vote! with friends
    This episode urges you to be mindful with your vote. Mel talks to a lot of friends, and reads statements from others, about how a vote for Trump directly harms them individually. Mel asked some friends to talk about how they're taking care of themselves this week with the election and the anticipation of waiting to find out the results. If you haven't voted already, we hope this episode will help you consider who you're voting for more carefully, and if you have voted, we hope you find some comfort in knowing you're not alone in feeling nervous, scared, stressed, etc. leading up election results.
