Follow the Yes! (AND it’s okay to say no!)

2024/09/23

This week we’re reflecting on two very different experiences that gave us very similar take-aways. Sue Ellen hosted a workshop to remember the ancestors and Savanna attended a workshop on pelvic and womb care.. We both walked away with the lesson that it all comes back to again and again, remembering to love. If you can listen with love you’ll hear the yes when you need to and trust the no’s when they arise. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Want to help support us and this show? Subscribe to...
