Today I’m sharing with you what might be one of my favorite episodes ever! My new friend and phenomenal poet Darryl Dzpasi is here to share his poem called YOU MATTER. Darryl wrote this poem after learning about the tragic death of George Floyd--he wrote it as a message for himself and the world around him. Darryl beautifully reads his poem (grab your tissues), and then generously talks to me about the experiences of his life that contributed to writing it. I also have Darryl tell me how he got to be so WISE and DEEP! You’ll get actionable takeaways for self-love, compassion, and navigating difficult emotions, as well as deep insight and perspective from Darryl’s unique experiences, which I know is so needed right now. I’m so excited to share this with you!

Get ready to let go of shame and have your mind blown! I’ve got one half of the INCREDIBLE PhD touting twin duo that runs the nonprofit Beauty Redefined, Lexie Kite! And Lexie is helping us (and of course I also mean me) work on how to build body image resilience--and learn what that even means! We’ll talk about how your body is an instrument and not an ornament! I argue with her a bit about my own issues, which of course we work through and I cry. And then we examine how we can pass on healthier ideas to future generations! IT’S SO GOOD!
