Heidi and Ellen, freshly back from the Radiant Life Retreat, talk about the wonderful week they just shared. The time was filled with astrological embodiments, song, poetry, and dance.  It was a feast for the senses! They take questions from Annie and Ellen. Annie is an avid reader and is thinking about writing a fiction book. She wonders: ‘Should I/ Shouldn’t I’?  (Spoiler alert- we say YES! ) (5:37) Ellen is a history teacher and loves her work, but worries about the current political climate that often forces teachers to parse words and limit curricular topics. She asks if we can recommend effective communication strategies so she can better dialog with parents and school officials. (12:38) Heidi and Ellen also chat about the latest episodes of Succession; Ted Lasso; and Shrinking, as well as music producer Rick Rubin’s new book, The Creative Act- A Way of Being.
