Something to Normalize

YOU’RE not f**cked up - the WORLD is. As women (as humans, really) the world can trick us into believing we’re doing life wrong, which keeps us small and siloed. But we don’t have to play along. Let’s make a plan together, shall we? We’re Ginny Gay and Brandi Lust - best friends and experts in mindfulness and adult learning. We’ve done the hard work of courageously engaging in self-exploration, healing, and expression— and in our pod you’ll be a fly on the wall for intimate, safe conversations where we share our life experiences, research from experts, and collective wisdom to help you breathe that big sigh of relief that comes from feeling seen and understood. When we join forces in honest conversation, we find the very thoughts, experiences, and feelings we often keep to ourselves are the very ones that are most likely to connect us. This leads to more self-trust and greater connection; this is the power of NORMALIZING. Join us— there’s nothing off limits— it’s all just Something To Normalize.
