What brings you happiness?

In this episode we are chatting about the fall equinox, Halloween, and transitioning into the autumn season. 🍁
We take a moment to discuss social media and current events (if this is heavy for you, please skip forward to the fall talk!), taking a break from social media due to overwhelming news and content, the challenge of engaging with world events vs. self-care, and acknowledging privilege in ability to disconnect, but emphasizing need for balance.Fall Equinox and Mabon
