Ok first of all, we had some technical difficulties with Les' microphone throughout this episode. We couldn't hear the static until the recording was done, we apologize and have a new microphone on order for next time.

In this episode, Les and Colls talk about the 7 different types of rest and how we may be overlooking what rest actually looks like for us. We also talk about our theory of why we are all experiencing collective exhaustion right now.

Les is launching a new Journal on Amazon called Intuitive Mama which also includes a guided meditation for Expanding your Intuition on YouTube. We will link on our IG page as soon as it's official!

Thanks so much for listening.

Today we talk with Candace from @paddle_in_motion about grief in all of its messy forms. Our mission is to normalize talking about grief, holding space for others to grieve, and cultivating a relationship with grief that helps us to live beside it, not bury it, ignore it, or bypass it.

If you are struggling with grief from any type of loss or change, a grief coach may be helpful or reach out to your local grief counseling support team. Online options are usually available but honestly, we haven't vetted these services enough to offer a specific business.

After a 3 month break, Colls and Les are back with a topic everyone can related to. How easy or difficult is it to maintain friendships right now? What are some fundamental reasons that they don't work out and how can we bring compassion into the relationship before resentment takes over?

Thanks for listening!
