Episode 9: The Practice of Trust and the Art of Becoming

In this penultimate episode of Season 1, host Erica explores trust and faith as radical, active choices rather than just feelings or "bumper sticker" quotes.

Through personal stories, Erica illustrates how believing life is happening "for you, not to you" transforms disruptions into redirections.
