Hey what's going on my friends welcome to the Astra Hustle I am Corey Allen you are you and here we are

How are we doing today?

I hope that the idea of yourself that you've been following into the future has been

continuing to bloom and blossom further into that individual or that wave of

awareness that you hope and seek to be.

And in that same spirit of hibernation and of emerging and

hatching and taking a bit of metaphorical inference from nature.

I have a great podcast for you today.

My guest is Catherine May.

She's an English author.

She has a whole range of non-fiction and fiction books. And she has a new book out called Wintering the

power of rest and retreat in difficult times. Now I will say I read this book and it was

really unlike anything I'd ever read before.

She does an incredible job.

I kind of described it and was thinking of it as

existential ambience.

She takes themes of nature, of mythology, of the very just placid moments of our own life and kind of a memoir style mixes them all together and kind of takes it into this very interesting mindful journey through the times in our lives whenever

we need to rest and heal and just kind of exist as a person and gain new perspectives and shift as opposed to always

feeling the pressure of having to perform and do and do and do.

It's a beautiful book that's gorgeously written and I really add just the best time speaking with Catherine.

She's an amazing person and we get into all sorts of great topics in this conversation.

I know you're going to dig it. My friends I'm so happy and grateful to tell you that this podcast is brought to you by Better Help. That's Better Help, H-E-L-P. With everything that's going on this year and the kind of the things that keep stacking up
