Amy: Go outside.

For the season three finale, Kristin is joined by Loren to look back at the wisdom, weirdness, and very good advice shared by this season’s guests. From practicing hope and learning to pause to knowing your values, trying something different, going outside, and remembering that everyone is just a human, a surprisingly coherent philosophy emerges: stay connected. To yourself, to your body, to your values, to other people, and to the world around you.Kristin and Loren also reflect on a summer that did not go according to plan, including a broken leg, an unexpected pause, and the loss of their close friend and former guest Nicole. It’s a conversation about grief, impermanence, community, and why we keep telling each other our stories even when the world feels impossibly heavy. Because we never know which part of our story someone else might need to hear.Send us Fan Mail
