A lot is going to stay the same, but I have a couple of big announcements too. So this will be a quick check-in to get you up to speed on what’s happening behind the scenes here.

Back on episode 71 of the show, Rebecca Ching and I talked about a therapeutic approach called Internal Family Systems, and how it can help us re-frame the way we deal with big emotional challenges.
