The shit we need to talk about this week: Reclaiming the end of summer from capitalism.
In this episode, I share a deeply personal reflection on the emotional complexity of August and the transition out of summer, and explore what it means to slow down, loosen the grip of society’s “end of summer” and “back to school” messaging, and meet this transitional time with compassion.
My invitation to you: reflect, reframe, and move more intentionally through the end of August and September with emotional support and grounded practices.
Episode Highlights:
- A raw, honest look at why August often feels heavy, rushed, and emotionally charged
- Insight into how capitalism drives the pressure to shift out of rest and into productivity
- Practical tools from yoga philosophy (aparigraha + brahmacharya) for slowing down and managing energy
- A compassionate framework for holding both grief and anticipation during times of change
- Thoughtful reminders and accessible practices to carry the sweetness of summer into fall

59. How we can resource ourselves for fall and the election
Fall is hella busy and full of transitions. And, we need to make it to the US presidential election day on November 5th as easefully as possible AND THEN move through the days after with resources STILL AVAILABLE.
Because as I said last year, we are no longer entering December running on fumes.
This, my people, is most certainly not that. So if you’re feeling under-resourced, this episode is for you.
The shit we gotta talk about this week: Whether Fall is YOUR TIME OF YEAR or not, feeling under-resourced heading into this season with all of its busy-ness and variability is not the way we want to go. Like at all, under any circumstances.
So here’s what we ARE gonna do:
- Recalibrate by checking in and asking yourself: how am I feeling now, how do I want to feel in the fall, and what support do I need to bridge the gap?
- Foster stability with your morning and evening routines
- Let doing B-level work be OK and release self-judgment when you do it
- Take time daily to recognize all the ways you’re showing up for the people, work, situations, and causes you believe in
- Do the thing and then take a break - often!
