For this first episode, we’ll be plugging into independence.

When I think of independence I think of a fight for freedom. To me, independence means being able to function on your own within your self-ascribed identity without needing to lean on others for the most basic empowerment. It also means confidence. But being independent can be isolating without community — friends and family. This week we’re going to plug into independence through the vibrational lyrics of music, and self-affirming podcast clips.
