    S2 Ep. 16 Confirmation Bias

    S2 Ep. 16 Confirmation Bias

    Confirmation Bias. What is it? Is it the first draft title of Platinum Blonde’s 1985 smash ‘Situation Critical’? For sure. But it’s more than that. It’s using ‘evidence’  to prove our own ideas true, even if they aren’t. Are we always getting the best intel? On this episode we talk about how easily we believe the worst about ourselves, especially when we have no boundaries. Clear your calendar for the next 42 mins, we’re in your ears!

    As always thank you to Allison Cornell, Graham Powell and Maury Lafoy for the music.

    S2 Ep. 15 Radical Acceptance

    S2 Ep. 15 Radical Acceptance

    What is Radical Acceptance? Is it from the 80s? Do we have to wear banana clips to achieve it? Or can we practice it every moment of every day to help us move through some of the most difficult shit we deal with in our lives? Join us as we walk through this eye-opening, mind-expanding technique, and try to put some of its benefits in place. Will the banana clip help? Unlikely. But it won’t hurt. RAAAADICAL!

    HQ S2 Ep. 14 ANGRY WOMEN IN A CLOSET or 2 HULKS, 4 BOOBS, SMASHED PIANO

    With so much infuriating b******t to be absolutely frickin’ furious about, it’s no surprise that women all over the world are pretty pissed-off right about now. What IS surprising is how hard it is for us to acknowledge our anger express it in a healthy way. Thanks to our friends at The Witch School of Canada we’ve learned an effective technique and we’re dying for you to try it. What if getting angry was a practice like meditation or Zumba?

    So grab your little purple shorts and let’s get ready to HULLLLK  OUUUUT!

    Thank you to Graham Powell, Maury Lafoy and Allison Cornell for music.

    S2 Ep. 13 A Pause with the Circle of Stones

    S2 Ep. 13 A Pause with the Circle of Stones

    Sometimes we don't have an episode ready to go but we still need a pause in our lives to ponder and rest. In this episode Shoshana reads a chapter from the wonderful book, The Circle of Stones by Judith Duerk. We recommend this book.

    Please take a walk or have a tea while you listen.
    We love you.

    Lisa and Shoshana
    Thanks to Graham Powell, Allison Cornell for strings and Maury Lafoy for our theme.

    Transmutation and Alchemy

    Transmutation and Alchemy

    Are transmutation and alchemy the same thing? In this episode we welcome our new producer, Julie Kaplan. Together we discuss our own experiences of transmutation, working the problem, anxiety, our kids, social media and Alan Thicke. Obvi.

    Regrets, we’ve had a few…but then again, we’re transmuting all that painful sh@$ into something amazing.

    S2 Ep. 11 The Un-Valentines's Day Episode

    Getting out from under the patriarchy isn’t as simple as pushing it off and rolling away. On this episode we talk about how the male gaze contributed to our personal feelings of value. How do we parent our own kids when we aren’t certain that we’ve learned the important lesson that we are innately valuable? It's a puzzle, and we’d love your help putting it together. Topics covered: polyamory, betrayal, social media, sex.
