Tending to Hobbies

Hosted by Jessica Sage and Michelle Zaylar

Description: Do us a favor, join us in tending to our hobbies. We really believe that when we take the time and space to lean into play, the world is a better place and life is more worth living. Even if you can only take a few minutes, please please do something you enjoy, just for you - or tell someone about something you want to do as a hobby, solely for your own enjoyment. And please tell us about your hobbies! Maybe one day, if we’re feeling brave, we’ll try some of them on the pod!
