S2E1: SAVING YOURSELF
WITH STEPH GRANT
How do we save ourselves? How do we save others? Can we save others? Trauma and indoctrination created a need to help everyone around me, foregoing personal healing and boundaries. Join me as I take a hard look at what it means to save yourself, and how we can’t live to save others.
This is a difficult topic that brushes against triggers for a lot of people, myself included. Please be mindful of your reaction while listening, and give yourself a damn break if it feels too much.

S2E2: REDEFINING PRODUCTIVITY
WITH STEPH GRANT
Productivity, performing, and projects... Oh, my! I let my brain wander a bit as I think back on the days of old and ask myself WHY? Why was I kept busy? Why was I taught not to question anything? Why is our value tied to our productivity and output? And why the heck was I only complimented for putting on heels and makeup?!

S2E3: FEELING [OR NOT FEELING] FEELS
WITH KAILEY DAVID
If we learned that there is shame in crying and expressing emotions, then we can unlearn it, and become "more than our history; more than our upbringing." These are hard conversations that we have to have with ourselves, and we have to wrestle with our discomfort and shame. In this episode, you can join me while I have this internal discussion about: Crying in the shower, going off the grid, a new book I'm reading on shame & an anonymous letter from a church friend. Thanks for being here. Don't forget about the bonus part after the outro song.
