Ever wonder why this song sings about 6 different birds then is broken up with “Five golden rings” before it goes on to describing the last 5 days of performances by people? Was the author really talking about actual gold rings?

Hello! It’s Christmas Eve, and today I share 5 things I have learned that help me step into my power! This podcast was inspired by the 12 Days of Christmas song, and during this episode, I share the history behind that song.
