In this episode, we'll talk about the ethical practice of Asteya, non-stealing, and all the sneaky little ways you might be stealing from yourself and your future without even knowing it. You'll walk away with a deepened understanding of what is yours for the taking, what isn't, plus how to give back to yourself and the world by practicing Asteya.

Ep. 4 Healing Heartache In this episode, we'll talk about the process of surviving painful life events, like separations from people we love. We'll explore how to hold your heart with compassion throughout your healing journey, and go deep into the psyche to discover what is actually happening in your brain and body when a relationship ends. You'll walk away with a deepened understanding of the biological responses at play when your heart breaks, and a toolkit of actionable steps you can take to reduce the long term effects of trauma.
