In this episode, Kelly and I get real about what it means to navigate the wild ride that is 2025. We dive into the tools, practices, and mindset shifts tucked into our "emotional go-bags"—the essentials we lean on to make it through these times.

This conversation also offers a behind-the-scenes look at how How the Wise One Grows is evolving, including our vision to make this podcast not just a place for inspiration but a true community—a sanctuary to help us all feel a little less alone in these challenging times. So let us know what you think by leaving a review or sending us a message!

Expect a mix of deep reflection, laughter, and the kind of levity we all need to navigate life one day at a time. Whether you’re looking for practical tools to ground yourself, inspiration to keep going, or just a good laugh, this episode will leave you feeling more connected and supported.
