Not everything always goes as planned. Today, my partner Lisa Eisenpresser and I sat down to record a podcast on radical acceptance, Our communities have been asking for most content on the topic, and we happily obliged. But as we were attempting to talk through it, I kept getting blocked. Finally, Lisa called out what was happening. I was stuck and suffering, and she asked me what was up. As the conversation unfolded, we didn't hit stop on the recording equipment. This podcast is what came out.

As hard as it is to be vulnerable, raw, and imperfect, I was willing to allow Lisa to draw me out. This is because I trust her. She is so gifted in her understanding and ability to embody this work. When we don't feel alone, we can let our walls down and be honest. This is what leads to relief and healing. Today, join us for a peek behind the curtain. We are human, just like you, and we are all trying really hard. Sending love and connection, wherever this may find you.
