S3 E3 A Culture of Gratitude and Radical Surrender with Author, Lindsey Alice

Take some time and enjoy this vibrant conversation with Lindsey Alice; Author, Yogi, Mother, Wife, Poet, Professional, Creative. We discuss her new book F*ck It, Thankfully. In Lindsey's words, this book is not about fixing you, it's about freeing you.  Our conversation takes many turns around the emotional landscape of being committed to personal growth and shadow work, creating healthy boundaries, and choosing what does Right Relationship look like when friends and chosen family are not committed to growth. There is a lot of wisdom in this episode and in this book.  Have a seat. Drink your coffee. Do  a yoga meditation. And listen in as we unpack gratitude, surrender, and healing in this episode.  Find Lindsey Alice on her website https://lindseyalicewrites.com/. You can find all you need to connect with her in the ways that make sense.  Be gentle with yourselves and be gentle with each other!
