319 | Sonder, Sleep, and Surviving the Election Hangover

In this episode, Lauren and Michelle dive into the emotional rollercoaster post-election, exploring everything from grief to retail therapy. They unpack the concept of "sonder"—the idea that everyone’s got their own complicated life story—and how it helps foster empathy in a world that often feels a little too divided.

They chat about turning anger into action, why sleep might be your new best friend, and the importance of self-care when the world feels like it's on fire. Plus, they reflect on the power of community support (especially among women) and the need for mindfulness when navigating tough times. Spoiler: It’s not all doom and gloom. There's hope, there's humor, and maybe even a few good book recommendations in there.

So, if you’ve ever wondered how to survive an emotional rollercoaster and be kind to yourself along the way, this one's for you!
