This week, I am honored to interview such a brilliant and wildly delightful human!

Bridge is not only a successful, highly knowledgeable therapist; they are also an important part of the queer community, constantly offering value, support, and experience-driven guidance.

Bridge brings some very interesting, thought-provoking conversation to the table today as they share about their own self-discovery journey of being asexual and aromantic. I learned so, so much. Bridge does a stellar job at breaking down and explaining a variety of nuances between what it means to be asexual and aromantic.

You will learn..

• The many different types of attraction and various complexities that give us space to discover where we fall on the spectrum

• When romanticism began

• How to approach a relationship if you are asexual and/or aromantic

• Why we feel shame in our experiences

• What we can do to learn how to embrace ourselves

• The beauty of being asexual and/or aromantic

• And loads and loads of more wonderfully helpful information!

I had so many questions and so many revelations in my conversation with Bridge today. Whether you identify as any of these labels or not, this episode is packed with goodness for EVERYONE! Bridge is entertaining, down-to-earth, and freaking radiates joy! I am deeply grateful for their willingness and passion to come today and teach us about these important topics.

If you are in the overwhelming throes of raising teens, this episode is for you.

However, even if you are not raising teens, the exercise I demonstrate today is a wonderful tool that can be used to recenter and ground yourself during any difficult season of life.

Being a parent has been kicking my ass lately. If I am not intentional, I end up feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, and seriously doubting my ability to be a good parent. Sound familiar?

I decided to bring you along on this exercise today so that you could experience it with me. Learning to identify our subconscious beliefs that are weighing us down is a great place to start when we feel overwhelmed. I hope you feel empowered to use this idea and tailor the activity to fit your needs!

I felt so much lighter by the end of this episode that I literally ran around my rock circle swinging my larit! (Stay till after the ending song to see my ridiculousness 😎)

This week I share a story of my recent trip to a friend's wedding and my experience of seeing some of the cult members again. I spent months preparing to attend this event. I was determined to change my brain and be a whole different person than the old village "Abby". It's never too late to let go of the old you and create whoever you want to be! Join me today to hear how my trip turned out and why meditation works!
