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

64: Surviving the polycrisis: a new landscape for self-care
Welcome to Season 3! The shit we need to talk about this week:
Now that we are in full on polycrisis mode here in the US, what if we FINALLY live our lives the way we want to and NEED to for the sake of our well-being, the revolution and finally letting the systems crumble, as well as for the sake of the collective?
In this episode, we discuss:
-Using winter’s invitation as the foundation for our self-care moving forward, regardless of the season.
- The importance of finding joy amidst societal and personal struggles, individually and collectively.
- An emphasis on the need for rest, reflection, and rejuvenation during winter and beyond.
- Setting sustainable goals, creating boundaries, and practicing soul-care to maintain mental and emotional well-being.
- The significance of listening to one's body and finding small, manageable ways to integrate self-care into daily life.
- Focusing on what you want more of and prioritizing your well-being for long-term resilience.
