Hi everybody and welcome back to the show. You may or may not have noticed that I haven't had an

episode up in a while. It's been a minute. And this is the first time in 10 years of doing

this podcast where I did in air episodes. Even during my maternity leave, I had episodes

up and I haven't for a while and I'm about to tell you why. First, the show is not going away.

I love this podcast. I love all of you. I think this is an incredible community and we can do great work

together. I am renaming the show

energy of the trip. I just wanted to be with me. I didn't want to be outputting anything.

I really just wanted to receive, to really step into surrender, to step

fully into not having any responsibilities, which honestly was heaven. You know, as a mom,

as an entrepreneur, as a wife, as a friend, as someone who owns a home, I always have responsibilities.

And this trip, there was a guide and a team who organized us, and I didn't really have to think

about anything. And I didn't have to take care of anyone other than myself. And let me tell you

that was such a gift. And I savored every single moment of it. There were even moments where there was a group

thing going on that I opted out of and I had to do with my own shame and judgment. Well,
