Grab a blanket and join me under my tree.

This pod is all about honoring your past and what it took to get you to where you are, while also letting go of tools that no longer serve you. I hope you enjoy it.

Have you ever let something bother you for years? I have. I carried this little emotional wound for years and found out just this week that I had my facts wrong this whole time. None of us are perfect and clearly our minds and memories aren't, either. Take a moment to think about any past grudges or situations and open your mind up - your memory may not be exactly right (I was sure mine was), or you may not see all sides of the story. Either way, it feels really good to find peace with these old wounds and move on.
