Because no amount of sourdough starter is needed to rise up what is already within you.

There's a lie that we've been fed for way too long and it's time to burst that made up bubble.... There's a fallacy that you will find fulfillment, happiness, balance, contentment, calm, (fill in the feeling you'd like to have) at a destination. At some point when you have all the things...you'll finally have the THING. The fallacy is that there is NO destination. The external does not bring the internal and in fact, it's the other way around. The secret lies within you, always has and always will. This episode breaks apart the myth that there is someTHING to achieve. And I share with you how you can feel the dream today...instead of someday.

Feelings anyone? Here's what I'm tired of...being told HOW TO feel. I'm feeling lots of things, thank you. And so are you. And it's not all doom and gloom.

Regardless of what it is, this episode is permission to feel your feelings all the way. You can't stuff them down because they'll find a way out anyways. And for the love of all things...you don't have to feel a certain way just because someone else is! Ok, rant done...but continued in the episode.
