Episode notes

The insight from this snip revolves around the concept of whether the kindest, wisest, and most forgiving aspect of oneself is synonymous with God's voice. It reflects on the idea that God's voice is essentially the highest, kindest, wisest, and most universally compassionate version of oneself. The focus is on replacing trust in a negative inner voice with trust in a kinder, more compassionate inner voice, while questioning why people don't doubt the negative self-talk but struggle to believe in a positive, affirming inner voice.

Liz Gilbert returns to share with us her transformative practice of planning her days and her life by writing two-way letters to love every morning.
