What happens when we see perceived obstacles as doorways to growth? Buffy gives examples of the ways "unexpected weather" can lead us to places - beautiful places - we did not expect to go. She tells stories of internal and external rearranging, post-bath time changes, and fresh-air walks to illustrate the ways we can change our problems through changing the way we view our problems.

How we receive friction is essential to how we thrive, and she offers tangible ways to start to re-wire the way we consider problems.

Do your fears have legs? Do you dress them up and bring them into the spotlight? In this episode, Buffy offers the idea of "feeding the good wolf" - and how that is a gift not only to ourselves, but to the world. Distinct from "fake it till you make it," Buffy provides practical ways we can amplify what's good and bright in us.

Buffy is back with more beauty marks: AKA, beautiful simple things that make life a little brighter (couldn't we all use a little more of that?). Some things that make an appearance: a throwback organizational tool, products of boredom, an old love story, and more. What are the moments and mementos that are marking beauty in your life? We recommend making your own list to keep you connected to the mundane magic of every day.

Today's episode is devoted to those who desire to live a creative life.  Buffy shares her own layered process within the creative cycle and invites you to step into your own fulfilling creative life. And, if you don't consider yourself a "creative," take heart: creativity is not limited to artistic practices only. Creativity can reach our families, communities, and the ways we build our days.

"Your growth isn't linear. Your progress isn't predictable."

We are in a time of deep collective and individual pain. In this episode, Buffy encourages listeners to arrive into their bodies before taking action. This week's episode is a smattering of practices - think of it as a table of tapas - that help you facilitate conscious conversation, look for the magic, and not rush to the next thing before you've digested new information. Tune in for stories of broken cameras, boundaries, and encouragement to look for the beauty amongst the broken in your life.

Buffy posits that because we have access to so much information, it's not often we encounter the feeling of longing. She tells stories of sweet treats, hot fries, baby whales, and the lily-pad nature of longing.

What form does your longing take? What information can we find within the longing? That and more when you tune into this episode.
