Then Again, What Do We Know‪?‬ Brianne Grebil & Mer Monson

As Mer and I decide to take a pause in episodes, we talk about growth - what is it, and how does it happen? We talk about, what looks to us, the ultimate “tool” available to us when wanting to grow and expand, in any aspect of life. It was a great episode to pause on. Thank you to those who have been with us on this journey, and we'll see what comes next.

Do you know that stressed or anxious feeling around making a decision? Worrying about weighing your options and making the right choice? Us too. Join us in an exploration of making decisions, where we get curious about how decisions are ever made at all.

“You are a ghost driving a meat covered skeleton made of star dust. What do you have to be afraid of?” Mer and I explore the idea of bodies in this episode, through the lens of health, appearance and our relationship between those things.

My book is now available (on Amazon after June 29, preorder at https://www.loveanddementia.com/book) and Mer graciously played the role of interviewer to ask me questions about the themes of the book. I’m happy for it to go out in the world and give hope to those facing the difficult journey of loving someone with Alzheimer’s or other dementia. Listen for what the journey with my mother has opened my eyes to, and then purchase the book for more, if you’re so inclined.

In this episode we look to see what we can see about discomfort - something I know I’ve definitely been feeling a lot of lately, and I know I’m not alone. It’s been rough out there in the world. Join Mer and I as we explore that discomfort.

How do we know how we’re doing? How much does that matter? When we look for progress, it feels like it can be both a motivator, and an idea that gets in our way. So, what should we do with the idea of progress?
