Summary

My guest this week is Krystal. After the death of her mother, whom she adored, Krystal is sitting at her computer, heartbroken. She feels abandoned, and she’s angry at her mother for not listening to the doctors. She thinks that she needs her mother to be alive, and to keep taking care of her. Get still, open your mind, and sit with Krystal and me in this invitation to inquiry. Let's do The Work.
