    This episode is dedicated to the process of growth and the ways that affects who walks alongside us in our own journeys. We are ever-evolving beings, and if you are listening to this podcast, it is likely you consider the nature of your personal transformation throughout your life. What happens when you become unrecognizable to others through life circumstances, purposeful change, or both? Buffy talks about what happens when "top is taken off;" When we shed a layer of the old us and find a more authentic, expressed center. Who are we? What do we do? Who do we choose to do it with? Tune in for more.

  • Letters Will Help

    The process of writing a letter, in an authentic way, changes you. It marks something, and it is exchange of energy, whether it is delivered to the person it was meant for, or not. Buffy offers the wisdom letters can hold when we write them to our past selves, our future selves, to people who help us, and others who hurt us. Writing letters and receiving letters alchemizes us, and in this episode Buffy shares about how letters of all kinds can help.

  • Joy Capital Will Help

    It is easy for challenging moments in our lives to capture our attention and energy; it is perhaps much more difficult to pay attention to what's beautiful, true, and brings us joy. In this episode, Buffy encourages more presence and attention to what we enjoy - not to bypass the pain, but to build our reserves in order to face what's challenging in our lives with more fortitude, ease, and contentment.
