Warmly

This week we're chatting with Pediatric Nurse Practitioner, Enneagram 2, and college pal of mine -- Jillian Longway. 

This is actually part TWO of a two-part conversation I had with Jillian.

In part one [Episode 24], we talked about perfectionism, asking for help, struggling in struggle-free environments (ie. strict private school), breaking up with church, and somehow even more. But in *this* episode we're talking about some health & wellness related topics like how not all bodies are treated equally in healthcare, and other topics like HAES, fatphobia, and diet culture. Consider this your TW.

This week we're chatting with Pediatric Nurse Practitioner, Enneagram 2, and college pal of mine -- Jillian Longway. 

We talked so much that this is just part ONE of this two-part series, and in this episode we'll discuss: Alaska, perfectionism, asking for help, struggling in struggle-free environments (ie. strict private school), breaking up with church, and somehow even more.

This week's episode is about a recent binge I did of The Skin Deep where I uncovered some similarities I shared with a recent guest of theirs.  I’lll talk about the silos we create where we house the experiences we've been through -- and how we often feel that sharing of these things eases our pain or helps us to process. This week's episode is an invitation to consider a new approach to growth: keeping things to yourself,

This week's episode is an invitation to be okay with not being grateful this week, this month, this year. 2020 has been rough, and it's okay for that to be enough. Even in the midst of holiday cheer.

This week's episode is about the worst kind of breakups ever: friendship breakups. Take a moment (or two) to listen to the letter Kaia wrote to an old friend whose distance left more questions than answers.

This week we're talking to my friend and former college "classmate" Kristin (or Kris!). We weren't exactly pals during college but our shared experiences during and after that time have brought us together, and kept our mutual affections alive. On today's episode we'll be talking about the process Kristin went through in deconstructing everything she learned about faith, marriage & divorce, and sexuality.

On today's episode we'll be talking about how going to a small, private, Christian college shaped us, what Kristin wishes that establishment might do differently, and all the unlearning that's taken place since we left.

Some people say "new year new me" but when it's time for new skin, it's time. No one needs to wait for the ball to drop.

This week we'll have a conversation with local Philadelphia musician, entrepreneur, and unofficial stand up comedian -- Brian Walker -- aka A Day Without Love. We'll talk about the creative process Brian used to work with me on writing Warmly's theme music, we'll talk about how he got the name A Day Without Love, what he cares about here in Philly and beyond, and what 2020 has taught him.

Things you might wanna know.

1. You can learn more about Brian here.

2. You can keep with with Brian's work via A Day Without Love's website.

2. You can get one of the "Good Friends Are Hard to Find" crewneck sweatshirts Brian referenced here.

3. You can read more about how & why Brian and I partnered together for a collaboration a few weeks ago.

4. You can listen to Brian aka A Day Without Love's latest two-part album, WTF Pt. 1 and WTF Pt. 2 on Spotify, Apple, or Bandcamp.

5. Tune in & subscribe to Brian's podcast called Dreams Not Memes on Spotify or Apple Podcasts.
