There are some stories that almost seem impossible to be true. Why do we feel the need to judge people's experiences as valid and concrete? Is it because we are wired up to accept only one narrative or look at different things through the same lens? I also find myself searching for the answers to this question. In this episode,  I am privileged to be joined by someone I have had a lovely and consistent acquaintance with for over six years to share a complex story of her life in her early twenties. And as we listen and embrace the stories of others with empathy and grace,  we give ourselves the permission to embrace ours too, even the complex ones that almost seem like they never happened.
