A touchy feely flashlight for illuminating the path you’ve traveled and your way forward into the future, this episode is an exploration of what we “carry” and how we can wield it with more consciousness and clarity. Bess and Sandy deep dive into personal pasts and memory, ancestral inheritance and patterning, and our collective responsibility for examining shared histories. The conversation covers how to handle and hold the emotional intensity of memories as they arise, dealing with regret, and reframing our stories in the service of communal healing. Get ready to shimmy with your ghosties and make good with all that’s gone down!
