Stop Looking at the Rocks: Expanding Around Health


Listen Later

In this heartfelt minisode, you’ll hear real-life stories and learn more about how surrender, peace, and support can exist even in moments. From there, we dive into health as a continuum (from illness to ever-greater capability), revisit ITCs—Invitations to Contract—and show you how to create an inner healing environment no matter what’s happening outside. You’ll learn practical ways to “feel first, then re-direct,” so your body becomes a trusted partner in both healing and high performance.
