Summary
There are only two real responses to suffering:
Push it away.
Or say to it: “yes and thank you”
There is no “right” way to suffer, and in fact, most of us have tried both responses many different times.
But once you discover what’s possible when you soften into suffering, you can’t unsee it.
In today’s episode I’ll share an update on my health and talk about what I’m learning lately about loss, failure, heartbreak and suffering.
I hope this lesson finds its home with you too.
