Join us from Ashland, Oregon as we talk all about the ins and outs of grief. Why does it feel so hard to do it right, and what are we supposed to do when there’s no time or space to grieve?
In this episode we talk about rituals and cultural touchstones for grief, how our brains work super hard to keep us safe even when it fucks us over, and what it’s like to get paid to infodump onto teenagers. We’ll also explore emotional constipation, the myth of “applying yourself,” and why tarot readings are one of the secrets to feeling things.
