    Why You Can't Stand Uncertainty

    You were taught, long before you could question it, that the dark is where danger lives: stay out of the forest, keep the lights on, always move toward the light. So when a season of your life goes dark, or you feel the pull to slow down and be still, something in you feels like something’s wrong. What if the dark was never something to fear, and the very thing you've been running from holds and grows the life you're longing for? Today we're talking about what we were taught to fear about darkness, and what shifts when we learn to be with it. ✨ FREE GUIDE: 7 Keys to RECLAIM Your Soul — A free guide and audio series with seven essential pathways back to your Soul to help you heal Soul-sickness, remember your True Self, and live a Soul-led life.

    Why Better Communication Won't Fix Your Relationships

    You leave the conversation and then replay it for hours...what you said, what you should've said, whether they're upset with you. You've read the books and learned the communication tools, and you try so hard to be the good one, the nice one, the easy one to be around, yet your relationships still feel effortful, and you still lose a little of yourself inside them. What if the thing that actually holds a relationship was never about better technique at all? In this Body & Soul Session, Kim Marie of Soul Knows the Way and Viv Oldham of We Are Enough get honest about why relationships between women can feel this way, what really lets two people disagree and still stay close, and how to stay rooted in yourself instead of disappearing into who everyone needs you to be. ✨ FREE GUIDE: 7 Keys to RECLAIM Your Soul — A free guide and audio series with seven essential pathways back to your Soul to help you heal Soul-sickness, remember your True Self, and live a Soul-led life.
