How exactly does one age gracefully? Join Mory and Melissa in this week’s episode as they answer this question and step (slowly) into the wisdom of their 40s. Sure, society loves to remind them that their bodies may not be as youthful as they once were, but that doesn’t mean they have to listen to it. Come commiserate with Bean and Bean about achy hips and relish in an attitude of “I don’t care what you think of me” even when Melissa’s daughter says she’s the most embarrassing person in the world. * To submit questions for future episodes: https://forms.gle/ZhSKGveWox33GvFq6* Follow Signal on insta: https://www.instagram.com/signalwithmoryandmelissa* Follow Mory on insta: https://www.instagram.com/moryfontanez/

Has a friend ever perfectly read your energy without exchanging any words at all? Maybe you needed a shoulder to cry on or someone to take your mind off things. Whatever it is, we as humans use our intuition everyday to care for others and respond to our environment without using complex reasoning. But, is intuition something only humans have? In this episode, Mory and Melissa learn about how primates use tools to solve problems, marvel at the exchange between plants and their fungi friends, and finally get an answer to the age-old question: would Mory and Melissa still be friends if they were dolphins?To submit questions for future episodes: https://forms.gle/ZhSKGveWox33GvFq6Follow Signal on insta: https://www.instagram.com/signalwithmoryandmelissa Follow Mory on insta: https://www.instagram.com/moryfontanez/

In this episode, Mory and Melissa go down the historical rabbit hole to examine ancient spiritual traditions - everything from the role of nature in Shintoism to dance in Sufism. As it turns out, a lot of the key concepts we use on the podcast have long lineages which, ultimately, shows just how profoundly important spiritual connection has been for people across time and space. This episode is about our relationship to the past. Why do we revere belief systems when they are older? What does it mean to be a part of a tradition so much bigger than yourself? Tune in to hear some reverence for the ancestors - and also, some reverence for you, our listeners! We’ve loved the support you’ve shown us - we only ask that you share the podcast with anyone who you think would like it so we can reach even more ears!To submit questions for future episodes: https://forms.gle/ZhSKGveWox33GvFq6Follow Signal on insta: https://www.instagram.com/signalwithmoryandmelissaFollow Mory on insta: https://www.instagram.com/moryfontanez/

This week, spiritual teacher and counselor Susannah Freedman breaks down the concept for us (with important ad libs from her co-counselor, Face).

We wouldn’t be around if there wasn’t a mass movement towards spirituality in our general culture. That means that there are a lot of spiritual experts on our Instagram feeds, YouTube recommendations, and Spotify playlists - some of them have made us feel great, some of them not so much. In this episode, the Beans take a look in the mirror to discuss the pros and cons of all the spirituality in our media. Come for the deep dive on how to find the right spiritual advisor for you; stay for Mory learning how to play the tambourine.To submit questions for future episodes: https://forms.gle/ZhSKGveWox33GvFq6Follow Signal on insta: https://www.instagram.com/signalwithmoryandmelissaFollow Mory on insta: https://www.instagram.com/moryfontanez/

From a young age we’re told to be thankful, but why is gratitude so important? Being thankful is a lot more complicated than forcing yourself to be happy. As the Beans discuss in this episode, thankfulness can (and probably should) coexist with the anger and grief you feel in tough situations. It doesn’t make life perfect, but it does allow us to get through our roughest patches and darkest hours. Bring goggles and a box of tissues for this emotionally intense journey through depression, joy, and friendship. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for listening to Signal!To submit questions for future episodes: https://forms.gle/ZhSKGveWox33GvFq6Follow Signal on insta: https://www.instagram.com/signalwithmoryandmelissaFollow Mory on insta: https://www.instagram.com/moryfontanez/
