Welcome Back!
Season 2 is a legit blast and I'm so excited to share incredible guest interviews and impactful tips and tricks with you as we continue exploring how life can be more livable.
This episode features The Barking Dogs - a live concert performance by my very own dogs who offer us a moment to tip toe into this seasons underlying theme - what I call the Control to Connection Pivot!
So be gently warned - there is a sudden explosion of unplanned yet right on time dog barking in this episode, hence the title, that allows us to explore how letting go of control allows us room for connection.

Todays episode features one of my former mentees, a dynamic thought leader, Keith Jamison. Keith is a senior at Allegheny College and vulnerably shares his experiences as a Black man at a predominately white institution - and because of this emotional labor I am encouraging those who listen to this episode to compensate Keith for his emotion and energetic labor today. Keith's cashapp is $KJamison1
Discussion topics range from positionality and the present, physical dislocation with emotional and spiritual location, lack of accountability from decision makers, and ancestral spiritual practices.
Three (of many) questions that arose during our chat that I wanted to offer as post listening reflection prompts include:
What is school [work, relationships, roles] actually offering you?
What happens if ideas and decisions don't go as planned?
How do moderation and reciprocation support balance?

Before you entertain thoughts about how you can do and be more next year or fart fart finish the year strong - what if you could identify who and how you are right now? Does this feel reflective of who you know you really are? Is this sustainable and is this way of being in line with the values you’re committed to living through?

Identifying where the end of the year not enoughness has and continues to come from let’s you know where to be returning the urgency that does not need to continue pulling you away from that much needed nap

So instead of setting inhumane resolutions, let’s plant some seeds rooted in our sense of self to nurture so we give ourselves a chance to thrive day by day
If you’ve been feeling the weight of being the only person in your family, friend groups, and networks who is doing the hard work of healing from your past and choosing not to pass your pain along to others, The Shit Shifters Society (SSS) monthly membership doors are opening until mid January. SSS helps adults breaking intergenerational cycles of harm go from feeling depleted, isolated, and like a shell of themselves to feeling nourished, supported, and like their full ass selves.

This Winter’s SSS theme is “Hygge Hibernation For Humanity - A Guided Sensory Reset to Sustain Your Resistance and Repair Harm”
