4: The Balance of Darkness and Light with Jay Phoenix Heart Frequency Podcast by HURRICANE AND A FEATHER

Do you consider yourself to be more of a "dark" person or a "light" person? This week on the Heart Frequency Podcast, my husband, Joe (Jay Phoenix), joins me again - we talk about the contrasts of life and how darkness and light can come together to create a beautiful equilibrium.
In this episode we discuss:
