After almost a year since the last podcast episode, Randi Kay gives a life update on what her own healing has looked like, what's happening with the podcast and Naturally Randi Kay, and shares insights on the power of letting your life transitions and changes be slow and steady.

Around this time of year, end of January and into February, is when the charm of winter starts to wane and we daydream about those warm sunny days. It's easy to get frustrated during this time, but just like any other season, there is a reason for it, and there are precious things to gain here that we can't during other times of the year.

So in this short and sweet episode, I share with you my top two things to do when you are feeling that winter angst. Give them a try, and you never know, this could become your favorite time of the year! Or a least a time of year that you don't dread.

And we are back with the first podcast episode of 2022 and another year-end round up episode talking real talk about the healing lessons learning in 2021.

This will be the fourth year my dear friend Artist Nichole Rae and I share with you our biggest lessons from the past year and what our intentions are for the year to come. And this year we are joined by our other wise friend, past podcast guest, and the designer of this very website, Ashley Dedin Carlson.

As finding a quiet space to record a podcast when you have little ones around is quite the challenge, we actually recorded this episode in Ashley's bathtub. Yup, we are that cool and that close of friends.

So I hope you enjoy our bathtub chat as we share about:

accepting the stories our bodies tell

how self-acceptance comes before self-love

the importance of seeking out how much pleasure and joy you can feel

postpartum rage and exploring anger

embracing the victories big and small

undoing the layers of body image issues

how to be more Betty...RIP Betty White

and more!

We live in a very forward-moving culture. When one thing ends, another thing immediately begins. Or we start the next thing before we even finish out the current phase we are in. Not only is this behavior expected, but it's also encouraged and celebrated.

But the unfortunate thing about moving on too quickly is that we don't take a moment to honor where we've been, what we've accomplished, what all happened during that meaningful phase of life. And when we brush over or dismiss all of that, we aren't actually moving on. There can be unfinished business or this continual feeling of not being enough.

So in today's podcast, I ramble on about:

- the complex emotions that can come up when you are letting go of something or moving on into a new season of life

- the importance of honoring where you've been

- why it's ok to move on from something even when it's good

- honoring the complexities of grief

- ceremonies or rituals you can do to close chapters of your life or ways of being that no longer serve you

There also is quite the cameo appearance from my six-month-old, and I share what's next for the Simple Self Care podcast.

Show Notes at www.naturallyrandikay.com/podcast

A common philosophy in the world of health practitioners is that you can only go as deep with others as you have with yourself. When you do the work yourself, you are then able to facilitate others to that work, as well.

In this week's ramble, I share with you:

- my recent experience of doing my own healing work around my birth trauma and the positive results of doing that work

- how prioritizing your healing is the opposite of selfish

- how to heal as a community

- how to find a practitioner you can trust

- and more

It's common to have a go big or go home mentality when it comes to connecting with nature. Like we have to go on a big camping trip or live in a place with a grand mountain range. And we discredit the beauty and wonder that can be right out of our front door or even a quick drive away.

Join me outside today as I ramble on my morning stroll about how to connect to the nature closest to you.
