Transcript

Hey,

Everybody,

Welcome to the energy matters podcast.

I am here with my co host,

Cody Edner.

And today we have the amazing Sarah Blondin on.

Welcome,

Sarah.

Hi,

Thank you for having me.

We're really excited to have you on.

I've been listening to your meditations on insight timer and they're so good and so unique.

And it's almost like poetry with music in the background guiding you.

When you started Live Awake,

Was that your goal is to create this poetic kind of movement of energy into the meditations?

Because it's such a unique style.

I know.

And it just like if you try and ask me to break down the process,

It was kind of this really organic thing that just started happening.

Usually these guided meditations were journal entries that I had written to myself.

So they were kind of very personal things that I was digesting at the time.

And then all of a sudden they started flowing with this incredible poetry and vivid kind of detail that I don't feel entirely responsible for.

And then I just started recording them with my voice and I didn't know what I was going to do with them.

And then I ended up sending it to my dad's partner and she said,

You have a really meditative voice.

Maybe you should add a meditation at the end.

And I said,

Oh,

And it was kind of the missing piece.

And so then I added these meditations.

And when I went to write the meditations,

I would literally,

It would take me like three minutes.

It was like just this incredible guidance system just flowed right out of me.

And then music has always been kind of a really big thing for me.

And I just started incorporating it.

And then I didn't even know what I was going to do with them.

So and then it just kind of turned into a podcast.

And it just really exploded.

I mean,

You have millions of streams and yeah,

It's just it's going so well.

You know,

Sometimes I Skype Cody and I'll catch him listening to one and I see tears in his eyes.

Which one are you listening to,

Cody?

He's like,

Surrender.

I'm listening to surrender.

So when did you when did you start,

Sarah?

Like when did you start your podcast or start recording all this?

How long of a process was it to before you start to release it more to the public?

I don't remember.

The podcast actually started being released soon after my first son was born.

And he's three and a half now.

So actually,

Everything kind of coincides at the same time,

Because my children and the birth of my children,

They really galvanized me and inspired me in ways that I've never been.

They really woke me up,

I think.

So what happened when I got pregnant with my first son is I moved from downtown Vancouver following the instructions of spirit to kind of totally submersed myself in nature.

And so kind of in haste,

My husband and I sold our condo and just rented a house in this place called Summerland,

B.

C.

,

Which is wine country.

And so I was really at the same time I was pregnant,

I was removed from all of my comforts.

I had no method of escape other than going into the forest where,

You know,

It just forces you to look at yourself even more.

And then that's kind of when I started trying to process these kind of struggles that I was having,

Because when you don't have your usual methods of escape,

I find all of these things will be brought to your attention one after another.

And you're not you can't run away from them.

So I had to find a way to really kind of change my perspective and my experience,

Sort of bring light to it instead of falling into this kind of pit of struggle.

So while I was pregnant,

I was writing this material.

And then after he was born,

I think I went into the production phase.

And then after he was born,

Even more material started coming because children do that to you.

And then I think I just started releasing them on SoundCloud or iTunes.

Yeah,

Right after he was born.

So that was kind of my lifeline because children are really for me,

It wasn't a really graceful experience.

I wasn't that mother that just loved staying up all night and being with their babies.

I really kind of resisted it.

So to have this kind of outlet of writing really kind of saved me.

Yeah,

So you write them out.

You write out all of your meditations first.

Well,

What kind of happens is I'll have something I'm struggling with.

So surrender is kind of the most popular one on Insight Timer,

I think.

That was speaking to kind of the whole resisting motherhood,

Resisting change,

Resisting newness in this environment that I was in.

So I would kind of have this word that would just keep saying surrender,

Surrender,

Surrender in my head.

And then I'd go to write and it would pour out of me.

And then I write the meditation part afterwards.

That's incredible.

Yeah,

It's really a neat experience.

And I can still watch myself.

I'll just get sentences like make it sacred was a sentence that just kept popping into my head as I was walking around in the forest.

It was like make it sacred.

And then I go,

I put my music on my head.

And I say make it sacred.

And within 10 minutes,

I have this piece written.

Wow.

And for people listening,

Sarah,

Who go,

How come I don't go into this forest and get downloads that turn into amazing content?

You know,

Or how can I?

Basically the question is,

If you were to teach people how to start to get those downloads,

That inspiration or to open,

So at least there's the space for that to happen.

Is there a process for you that you could share?

Or is it literally just kind of divine intervention,

Like a lightning strike or a soft waterfall?

How does it work?

It looks on the outside kind of like a lightning strike.

But what really if you look back at the history of my life and kind of the way things have progressed,

I've always been a contemplative type of person.

I've always needed that time to process things.

I've always used writing and journaling to access kind of a better,

Wider perspective.

So I've always been using that as kind of a lifeline.

And then I've always really,

Really had this deep longing within myself to kind of lead a really meaningful life.

So that question has always been kind of in there.

And so that's always kind of been the motivational force behind everything I do.

So if that intent within you is very clear and you're quite resolute on that,

You kind of start looking for wisdom and guidance from the external world or through whispers or whatever.

You're really just like on high alert for it.

So if I was going to teach it,

That's kind of what I would say is kind of become very clear in your intent for wanting to do this.

And intention is everything.

We know that.

So if you're kind of learning to shift your focus into those realms,

It will start waking up more and more for you.

And then the more and more that starts to wake up and you start actually following through with the guidance or the instructions,

The more you develop kind of a trusting relationship with this,

Right?

So it's kind of a really long,

Long process,

But you're not supposed to be looking at as like,

I want to make something beautiful.

It's more,

I want to just be in the best alignment with my highest wisdom at all times.

And if something beautiful comes from that,

Wonderful.

But no matter what,

Something beautiful will come out from it.

I'm not saying it will be a podcast,

But you will develop a more trusting relationship with yourself and with the world at the same time.

And then whatever comes from that,

Consider yourself just blessed.

Yeah,

So you're saying you can't really approach it from the perspective of trying to create content and have this come through.

In that journey,

Did you consider it a spiritual journey?

Have you kind of been spiritually minded along the way or that's kind of rooted in that idea?

Yeah,

It's always been rooted in that idea and from that idea,

Because I would be following my guidance and doing different things that I thought I graduated journalism and I wanted to be an actress.

So I was kind of following those things.

But what I found out the same thread tying it all together was trying to find truth and trying to make people feel at the same time.

And then it kind of changed in writing has always been my thing.

So it kind of just all married together.

And now,

Now we're in this phase of my life.

So we'll see what happens next,

I guess.

That's so cool.

And do you find that you so you said like the surrender one,

There was some resistance and frustration there.

Do you find that a lot of times you hit some level of energy where you get a little stuck or invalidated and then from that as you move through it,

The content comes through?

Exactly.

But it's only in facing the struggle that you're able to gain a higher perspective.

So you really have to learn to turn toward yourself very courageously and very deliberately.

You know,

For example,

I just gave my book proposal to an agent and I was upset that within the first hour,

There wasn't a response saying that my book was incredible.

And I was like operating under this kind of like grumbly energy.

And then I finally sat down and I took my journal and I said,

What needs to be looked at here?

And then I just say it all.

I don't let my pen stop.

I just write and I write and I write.

I do not lift my pen from the page.

I do not edit.

I do not add commas.

I do nothing of the sort.

So you keep kind of your thinking mind out of it and you just let your emotional mind run.

But I had to face that surly energy.

And what I found when I dove into the energy was that there was two people operating within me at this time.

So one of them was very logical and understanding and in peace with the process.

It said,

You know,

These people are busy.

You should expect a week at least,

You know,

This very calm,

Accepting energy.

And if this man is not,

You know,

The agent for you,

Then so be it.

And totally accepting of this.

And then I found this other part of me,

The part that was traipsing me around in this kind of crappy energy was,

You know,

What people call the ego or the part that was operating on I need more yesterday.

Right.

And trying to get to a place constantly and needing to be fed by kind of praise and whatever.

So then I saw all of a sudden,

I was all of a sudden aware of these two knowings within me.

So I was now facing toward the discomfort.

And then I saw both and.

And this is when sacred choice,

I call it,

Comes into play.

So if you face these kind of things in your life,

You all of a sudden have agency over your life and your experiences and you have a choice to make.

And then you have to re-choose and re-choose and re-choose to refocus on the knowing inside of you that you want.

Do you want to keep being traipsed around by the ego or do you want to choose the self that really is at peace with this experience?

It's not easy to choose.

And it actually requires like almost constant choice because the ego is very strong in that sense.

You know,

It's always operating and it's always trying to fix things for you.

So it's kind of,

You know,

Hard,

Not hard.

It's just requires a lot of awareness.

It's a knowing awareness.

That's a beautiful point you make about finding the both and because I think so often in our world we approach it from an either or perspective.

And when you start to move into a spiritual perspective,

You're always confronted with the paradox and you can only meet that paradox with the both and and resolve it and get to the other side of it,

Which is the truth.

Exactly.

Yeah.

But as long as you know,

Like the only way you can actually know,

You're not wrong to feel the both and you're not wrong to feel the other.

And I think that's what people kind of get hung up on is they say,

Oh,

I'm feeling this shitty thing inside and I don't want to look at it because if I look at it,

It's going to swallow me whole and whatever.

We just want to avoid it.

Right.

And I'm totally,

I do the same thing.

So we feel wrong for feeling the other within us.

But we're not wrong to feel the other.

The truth of feeling the other is that you are actually wise.

This is called wisdom.

You are aware of the things going on within you.

So as long as you're kind of remaining unconscious to that,

You're not having this power of choice in your life.

So you're actually right to feel the other.

You just have to look at what the other is in order to choose the higher kind of experience for yourself.

Right.

Yeah.

And Sarah,

Like you're really teaching people to learn how to feel consciously,

To be able to feel consciously,

Move through those feelings,

Accept them and get something out of them,

Maybe some wisdom or transcend them or just even just be in them.

Just you in whatever form.

It seems like all your meditations,

You're really helping people to feel life.

It's beautiful.

I think that's kind of the missing thing is we're not allowing ourselves to feel and we're only hoping to feel the good and then what happens is we kind of create this stress and disconnect from ourself because life is both end again,

The paradox.

Right.

So if you can't allow yourself to feel the uncomfortable,

You're actually kind of walking around a bit and meets the ties to bit numb.

So in order to come more alive and awake,

You have to feel the robust textures of life,

So to speak.

Absolutely.

What is your goal with live awake?

Is it to expand past the meditations and the podcast?

I mean,

You just mentioned that you have a book coming out.

Maybe you can.

I don't know if you can yet,

But if you could tell us a bit about what it's about and kind of what the what your vision is with everything that you're creating and sharing.

The book is basically just live awake in a book form.

It's about connecting the self with the heart again,

Because I think there is quite a divide within us that causes us to stay disconnected from the heart.

We've kind of made the heart this kind of precious thing and,

You know,

We've kind of put it under this glass and safekeeping,

So to speak,

To the point that we're not even able to feel it very often.

So this book is kind of a reconnection with the heart in ways to do that.

But the most integral step,

And like I was saying,

Is that you have to face the stagnant waters and the uncomfortable parts within you in order to inhabit the heart on the other side.

So the book will kind of be a way to reconnect with your feelings,

Because I think feeling is the missing link.

So you feel all of it.

You start talking to your feelings.

You have this dialogue with your feelings.

Then you have the power of choice.

And then you just keep diving deeper and deeper into,

You know,

The painful parts within yourself in order to come to the other side.

So it's essentially what the wake is.

So in this podcast,

We like to explore the idea of how energy matters in our lives,

Right?

How it creates change in the world and those kinds of things.

In the idea of live awake,

What is it to be awake?

How would you kind of summarize that for someone to find that space or pursue it?

Being awake is living on the surface of your life and kind of bringing everything from the unconscious and the reactive levels of your avoidance and whatever else like we've been talking about to the surface so that it is in the light of awareness,

So that it's no longer living in the shadow realms of your body.

So you're actually clearing out the energy that way.

I think when we allow our self to feel both the mighty and the mundane in our lives,

We start clearing out those things so they're able to move up and out.

I don't think we're supposed to get bogged down with these kind of negative and uncomfortable things in our body.

We're supposed to actually just let them come up and out.

So you have to let these energies move through you because that's essentially all that's happening,

Right?

You know,

Like you wake up one day and you wake up in a crappy mood and then by the afternoon you're full of,

You know,

Light and love again or,

You know,

The next day or something.

What's actually happening is your energies are cycling through you.

So I think if you can kind of bring more and more into the light of awareness,

You're kind of helping things dislodge from you on a cyclical basis.

And maybe move through more quickly.

Exactly.

Once you recognize that you can move faster.

Yeah.

And I've gotten really good at that.

And I've gotten really good at actually just facing myself as soon as I can.

I mean,

I still get lost sometimes if things are really big.

I've also watched myself walking into the dark.

I don't know if you guys can resonate with this,

But I've actually watched myself kind of shutting down and allowing myself to go into the shadow realms of myself and like doing this deep dive into these emotional pits and being like,

Don't try and take me out of this.

You know,

Like I want to be miserable.

That's my mantra.

Yeah,

Right.

Let me have this,

Right?

Let me have this moment.

And I'll watch myself do it and I'll see myself stuck in it for a few days sometimes.

But in facing that finally after the few days of distress,

I've learned that maybe that has a purpose as well.

That maybe in going to the very depths of our untruths,

We actually learn how to untie ourselves at the same time.

So even if you are in these horrible places that you feel,

You know,

You're choosing,

I think it does serve a purpose as far as us learning through our untruths what the actual truth is.

I think everything kind of works together even if you are in a bad place.

I don't even have any questions because I'm getting a healing just from listening to you talk.

Do you teach Sarah?

Do you teach in person?

Do you work with people one on one or groups?

It seems to be the way things are rolling.

It's kind of like,

And I have never done that.

I feel like my work is how I teach,

But people are actually asking for practical breakdowns for things which I find a bit like I don't know how to do that.

Yeah.

And are you interested in teaching in person?

Do you want to be in front of groups and work with people?

Yes and no.

I mean,

I'm comfortable.

Cody,

I think we're pulling Sarah out of her shell right now.

I'm comfortable behind my microphone.

But a part of me really enjoys conversations like this.

I would like to teach in the setting of maybe just going into a room and having people ask me questions.

I don't know.

I love this.

I heard that Einstein went to try and teach class in university and he was like a bumbling teacher.

And everybody was kind of bored and restless and they wanted to leave and they're like,

Who's this Einstein guy,

Right?

And then Einstein was like,

Okay,

I can walk and talk.

And he chose to take the class out to walk and just talk to him about these things,

Kind of kind of loosen these things for him.

And I was like,

Oh man,

Einstein was like,

Because a part of me gets a little bit weird about sitting in front on a pulpit saying this is how you do this.

Because I also feel like David,

I know you teach.

I attempt.

I feel a bit like my journey is very personal and I feel in almost trying to break it down for someone is almost telling them how to do it instead of them discovering it.

I don't know if that makes sense because it is a personal journey and what I am inclined to do could be entirely different for someone else.

And I guess what my teaching would be is for them to kind of find that voice within themselves.

But I guess,

Yeah.

And that's the challenge of every teacher is how do I connect with this person or with this group of people without programming them that what I know is true,

Right?

Because the map is always different than the journey and you're always going to get people,

At least my experience,

I'm sure Cody,

You've had this experience where people take everything you say literally or instead of doing it and living it,

They just accept what you say.

And then there are the people who are like fiercely independent and really want to know it for themselves.

And you're ultimately what you're doing then is teaching them tools,

Meditation tools,

Or life skill tools,

Awareness tools to find that for themselves.

So yeah,

I think that's really common Sarah that you get that,

But you're such a great teacher.

I think you'd be amazing in that realm.

Oh,

Thanks.

Thanks for seeing the cap.

Well,

One of the things that you're always trying to teach is for someone to teach them how to find their own answers within or tap in or to in a way what I've always said over the years is I'm not really teaching you something new.

I'm reminding you of what you already know or who you really are.

And when you discover that in yourself,

That's the real answer and the real thing that moves you in your next step or in your growth.

So I'm not really teaching you a truth so much as a perspective in how to find your own truth or uncover that within you and bring it out into the world.

So yeah,

So I mean,

It's there.

There's a seed in there and I feel like that's what everybody's kind of wanting from me,

But I'm watering you right now.

That healthy balance within myself too.

So I don't know what's going to happen.

Sarah,

I'm sure you get lots of messages and emails and on Insight Timer and everywhere else.

Have you noticed people reaching out to you,

Thanking you,

Telling you their stories about what they're going through,

The similarities and how you've helped them?

Yeah,

Most emails I'm totally brought to tears.

Just because when you start teaching or doing work that actually starts touching other people,

You realize how valuable and interconnected and how important it is to actually be these kind of just do your work,

Right?

It's like,

Wow,

And now I've helped this person pull themselves out of depression or suicide or all of these things.

It's just extremely profound.

So yes.

Do you respond?

Do you email some people back?

That's what I'm kind of struggling with.

What do you do,

Corey?

I do respond mostly at this point.

If I get a few a day,

I try to respond.

I've noticed over time,

The responses get a bit shorter because it just takes so much time and energy to be able to respond.

But if somebody writes me a long,

Well thought out email with a lot they've been through,

I kind of really almost feel an obligation to respond if I can.

But really,

It's hard to respond because I'm like,

I cannot in it as deep as you because I don't know you.

Now,

The students,

I work one on one and so does Cody with people.

That's what our day jobs are.

And so that's really the place for us where I'm like,

If you want to talk,

Let's sit down for an hour and let's really work this space.

It's hard through an email,

Just one off for me to understand your life and respond in that way that has a lot of meaning.

But at least what I do is validate them.

I hear you.

I'm so excited that you're taking some amazing steps.

You're doing great.

And sometimes there's this,

You're so great to me or to the teacher.

But it's always,

Whenever I get those emails,

I think like,

No,

I'm not just ask Cody.

I know.

Just ask my kids.

Totally.

That's how I feel.

So I answer for the most part,

If there is long,

Beautiful emails that have really touched my heart.

And I don't mean to be flippant with people's hearts,

But I find it kind of a hard thing to do.

And I find almost like my answers aren't needed,

Which seems kind of bizarre.

I find if you answer just quickly and briefly,

It's almost more of an insult because you're looking for that intimate connection.

And if I don't get it.

Yeah.

And you don't get it.

And I know that from reaching out to teachers that I have loved to get like,

Oh,

Great.

And I'm like,

Oh,

What I'm really longing for is that kind of intimate,

Meaningful connection.

If I can't really give you that,

Doesn't mean that you don't mean anything to me.

I just don't feel like I'm necessarily being of service.

I don't know if that makes sense.

Yeah,

So Sarah's going to start a one to one program and the first 10 people who email listening to this get to sign up.

Me and Cody are on the list.

So there's lots left.

Okay.

Get ready,

Guys.

It is really hard to share through emails.

I'm not very good at answering,

Especially those kinds of emails that would create that intimate or deeper connection.

You don't even respond to my texts.

It's just,

It's very difficult to do over that medium.

It's almost like you do a disservice to them.

Like if somebody tells you to help them get over their daughter's death,

It's just kind of like,

What do I even say to you?

And how do I say it tenderly enough?

You know,

I just find it really challenging.

How do I say it tenderly enough that you don't feel like I'm kind of dismissing or,

You know,

I don't know.

Like I'd love to have company with you.

You know,

That's what I would really love to do,

But that's not possible.

And especially as things grow,

I mean,

It gets more and more challenging to kind of sit down and answer everyone.

So,

Yeah.

And so Sarah,

You still,

You were telling us before we started the show that you live in British Columbia and you live kind of out in the woods.

Do you live in the woods or you live out in the countryside?

I live in the woods.

Well,

Actually I live on top of Hill,

Essentially.

I have 160 acres of land and I found cougar prints outside my door,

Cody.

Oh,

Yeah.

Well,

Not outside my door,

Kind of up in the top field,

But I don't,

I,

Yeah,

I mean,

I live in the wild.

Is it isolating?

Do you love it?

See,

This is the hustle,

Really beautiful thing of a spiritual journey as well is when I first moved out to the country,

Which were the instructions of my spirit,

It was like,

Kate,

You got to go girl.

The only time you're actually comfortable is in a forest or by an ocean.

So you don't get with the program here.

But with that came,

You know,

The loneliness,

The isolation,

All of these kinds of stories and programs just really ignited really fiercely.

But if you're kind of inclined to look at things from a contemplative,

Spiritual,

Mindful way,

It's like,

Okay,

Everything is an invitation and there's always an other side.

Like loneliness is always hiding something else or fear is always hiding something else.

And how can I,

And I know that if I stay in this loneliness and I know if I stay in this place of discomfort that I'm ultimately going to transcend it,

I don't think we're supposed to be hopping around kind of solving and avoiding these things.

And I think that's why solitude is really challenging for people is because they don't know how to face themselves.

But if you actually force yourself to face these things,

Every time they come up,

They slowly and slowly unlatch and loosen.

I don't say they go away,

But they become less of a controlling kind of force in your life,

Right?

It's like,

Oh,

I don't have to run.

And what has actually happened in the isolation and the feelings of loneliness is I have become more and more full and more and more whole in myself to the point where I will actually,

If I have free time,

I'm not going to fill it with other people.

And that's not an offense to anyone.

That's literally just a pure pleasure I have in my own company,

Which was not there before facing it.

So now I've come to the point where I'm like,

Oh,

My God,

I love myself.

And not every day is the same.

I don't want to paint the picture of like,

Sarah doesn't get lonely and Sarah doesn't feel these things.

I just mean that they aren't controlling me anymore.

And when they do come up,

I say,

OK,

What's the invitation?

What's the invitation?

Because these things are all structures that we've kind of been taught to believe.

If we're by ourselves,

We're lonely and we don't bother to look for the deeper thing behind it.

All the truth is we are whole and we can be whole in our own company.

And we have an unlimited source and well within us that can sustain and fulfill us and how we get there.

And if we choose to do it,

Then be prepared to kind of enter the solitude and quiet with yourself.

I guess.

Yeah.

So that concept,

That idea of loving yourself is really central to that awakening.

It is the awakening.

It is the awakening.

Wow.

Thank you,

Sarah.

Thank you.

That's great.

Thank you for listening to part one of this two part conversation with Sarah Blondin.

What an insightful half hour.

The second part should be released shortly.

And in the second half of our conversation,

We go deeper into the process of awakening and growth.

And at the end,

Get a wonderful surprise as Sarah shares a lovely meditation with us to complete the conversation.

We are excited to share this second half of the conversation.

Look for it and we will see you soon.

You've been listening to the energy matters podcast with Cody Edner and David Gandelman.

Reviews

Oh my gosh, what a wonderful sharing with Sarah. I felt like I was right there with you.
Can't wait for part two! Thank you 🙏🏼

My takeaway: That after all these years I am more at peace in solitude and in my own company:) That I enjoy listening to wise and relatable discussions like this! I like the metaphor that while the same map may be guide that each journey is unique, that we all need to tread our own path. KEY: 5*Insightful 4*Interesting 3*Okay 2*Not For Me 1*Irritating

Sarah's conversations go straight to my heart ❤️ ❤️❤️

This was lovely and who knew Sarah Blondin could get even better! All three of you had me laughing and nodding along and I’m excited to press play on part 2 right after I click “submit” 😝

Beautiful podcast always inspiring and moving to the soul like a gentle whisper. Much gratitude 🌻

That was a refreshing conversation! Thank you! 🙏🏾 Sarah is the truth! ❤️

Awesome! These very cool people are sharing with us, their fellow travelers, their truth, their journey, that which is meaningful to them.
Listen...
When I listen I feel akin,
I feel at home.

Thank you for this inspiring thread. Looking forward to part 2

Amazing and really meaningful talk. Some of my very favorite meditation teachers in deep conversation..what could be better?! ❤️

Excellent interview all round, carried out with Sarah, her openness about herself & her creative approach, but also David‘s great questions and humour for me made it not only a great informative but light hearted session to listen to! Thank you Sarah and all ! 😊💕

Thank you Ms Sarah for sharing your journey, much love and gratitude for your meditations ✨️🕯🙏
Great interview guys!

I literally screamed with joy when I saw this interview and couldn’t listen to it quickly enough! My two favorites, David and Sarah. Looking forward to the second half. And thank you, as always, for your tender guidance and love.💕

I enjoyed my 1st time hearing Sarah in an interview.
Very insightful, thank you.

Love listening to two of my favorite teachers on insight timer can’t wait for part two!

So wonderful hearing this interview
Thank you 😊! This made me so happy

Very good energy and flow. I've followed Sarah for 5 yrs. She inspires because of her authenticity. Nice finding your show!

Awesome interview. Very insightful. Much gratitude guys 🙏💜

Thanks you three. Just wondering how I could encourage my stubborn, angry, or maybe mostly angry with mummy, scientists pregnant daughter to chill out and take up meditation to infinitely improve her life. What a complex difficult little creature she is and has been for 15 years. Heartbreaking to watch and be a part of? Now guys answer that if you can please. One step at a time.
I love listening to you all. You change and Insight Timer changed my life.
Thank goodness for that. 🙏🏼❤️

So insightful, and so beautiful to get to know Sarah a little bit. Looking forward to the second part

For years I have been wanting to write my own poetic meditations but have been afraid to do so due to the judgment of others. The talk inspired me to take the first step. Thank you so much 💙🙏🏽
