The One on Waiting is Hard
Change is coming — but you can’t see it yet.
That foggy, restless in-between? That’s where new life takes form.
In this episode, Devany and Meredith sit inside the “goo” of becoming — the uncomfortable, beautiful not-yet — and share how resisting the urge to rush their rebrand opened a third way forward.
They unpack the systems that make waiting feel unbearable — capitalism, patriarchy, and the myth of productivity — and offer practices that root us back into body and trust: Centering Prayer, the inner posture “I can wait,” and the slow medicine of time itself.
An invitation to stop forcing what’s still forming — and to believe that what’s growing in the dark is already on its way.
Gentle note: strong language at times — use care if little ears are nearby.
Bonus offering: Host Yourself — Holiday Edition
Join us for four cozy lunchtime mini-retreats with teaching, somatic practice, and community care.
It’s a way to host yourself with the same compassion you offer everyone else this season.
