    72: Disconnection from Aliveness - and How I Know When I've Lost Mine

    ⚡️ When a message keeps finding you, it's usually because some part of you has been waiting for it. In this episode, I'm talking about how this showed up for me - and what I've come to believe it has to do with disconnection from aliveness. I'm not talking about the huge events, but more about the smaller stuff. The kind of things that arrive gradually, as a series of small decisions made from fear rather than love, so ordinary you don't register them as decisions at all. I also talk about how I know when I've lost my own thread - three specific signs that fear has quietly taken more of the wheel than I realized - and what it looked like to make a different choice on a regular Monday morning. The work of coming back to aliveness isn't about confronting fear head-on. It's about rediscovering what's underneath it. Because underneath it, something is still there.

    71: The Breadcrumbs You Keep Walking Past

    Your soul has been leaving you a trail. Small things. Persistent things. The pulls you keep dismissing as impractical, inconvenient, or just not the right time. This episode is about what those breadcrumbs actually are - and what it costs to keep walking past them. One question to carry away.

    70: When You've Drifted From Your Own Life

    Seven years in, and the cards showed me something I needed to see. Not something new - something I already knew, but had drifted far enough from that I needed it handed back to me. This episode is about the gap between what we say our priorities are and what our days actually show. About the drift that happens not from malice or laziness but from accommodation. 💀 And about what mortality has to do with why any of this matters at all. 🌱 One question to carry away. About ten minutes. That's the medicine. Sign up for (free) Field Notes from the Apothecary. Music from #Uppbeat https://uppbeat.io/t/night-drift/teal

    69: Life Winks

    A life wink isn't a lightning bolt. It's quieter than that - the small, specific moment that makes you stop and feel, even briefly, like something is paying attention. This episode is about two of them that showed up on an ordinary morning when I stepped outside with my dog. A spider. A crow. And what it means to be moving slowly enough to notice.

    68: The Good Girl Is Running the Show and She Is Tired

    There's a version of you that learned very early how to make herself acceptable. She smiles when she's depleted. She says yes when she means no. She absorbs what she should redirect because keeping the peace always seemed more important than keeping herself. This episode is for her - and for you, the one who's starting to notice she's been running the show for a very long time. One ailment. One remedy gestured at. One question to carry away.

    67: The Other Shoe

    What happens when happiness lands - and your body immediately braces against it? This episode is about the flinch. The rock in the stomach. The way an old story of unworthiness can keep you from receiving what's already right in front of you - joy, abundance, goodness in any form. Not a teaching from someone who has this figured out. A dispatch from someone still learning to look up.

    66: Soul Breadcrumbs

    Your soul has been leaving you a trail. Not a dramatic one - just small, specific signals. The delight that catches you off guard. The pull toward something before you've had time to think about it. The want you've been quietly apologizing for. This episode is about learning to read those signals - and what happens when you finally stop walking past them. 💌 Sign up for my (free) Field Notes from the Apothecary. == Music from #Uppbeat https://uppbeat.io/t/dan-phillipson/drifting-home License code: JLAXALBM7ELPMIOJ

    65: The Gray Season

    What do you do when nothing is wrong but nothing feels alive either? Not depression, not burnout - something quieter and harder to name.  In this episode we're giving language to the gray season: what it is, why it sets in, and what it might actually be trying to tell you. 💌 Sign up for my (free) Field Notes from the Apothecary. === Music from #Uppbeat https://uppbeat.io/t/jonny-easton/summit
