hi guys, I know it's been another long time since we last talked. But I want you to know how thankful I am for you. One Friday night, this episode was done on a whim after a dinner of soup and bread. I came into my office in my new apartment and told you about my summer of healing and how I've been doing with my mental and physical health. How being in an out patient program for my depression saved my life and made me realize how toxic Instagram really is.  How you can accept new friendships with shaky hands and Sunday brunches. How you can paddleboard with MS and not fall off in the lake. How a small feline's purr can melt your heart in the morning and evening. How you can have really good days and really bad days. How even through everything you've been through, you still find a reason somewhere in you to keep going. This was scary to come back and do so thank you for allowing my words to be the soundtrack you listen to.
