Episode notes

I'm working through some real insecurity. This is the first time I'm writing on medication. And there's a part of me that's like questioning, is it making an impact on my ability to synthesize and to have a creative output? But when I go back, I try to just, you know, keep a voice memo and ideas come through,. When I go back and listen, I feel like, no, there's something here. There's something here and I need to just kind of walk forward and lean into that.

1. Abby shares with Sara the great personal impact Sara’s music has made on her life.

2. Sara and Glennon bond over the joy of solitude, the underrated gifts of being heavy-hearted, and the fact that “there are too many things to be worried about at all times” to be lighthearted.

3. When you are in deep stress, do you try to sabotage your job, relationship, etc.? (Before this conversation, Amanda thought it was just her.)

4. How playfulness and joy – connecting to the little kid who grew up into you – are vital to loving yourself.

5. Sara’s beautiful journey with medication for depression and anxiety – and how she learned her anxiety often arises from an unexpressed need.
