It also gets a little heated when we talk ICE and elected officials. Whoopsie. Let's get triggered.

New Year, New Me, right? Or are you carrying your vintage trauma into 2026? On the premiere episode of Season 3 we're talking grief in all its forms. Can you really start fresh without cutting off dead ends?

We also have our very first guest on the podcast, Sambrywil—an artist, creative director, and a good friend of mine. His new book "A Year Without Touching You" is a beautifully crafted piece that I think perfectly embodies the emotional rollercoaster that is grieving while also creating something new.

This week we're yapping about the Golden Rule & gratitude. I share a little storytime about Paul and how social programming conditions us to compete instead of care. We'll circle back about those hot dogs on the grill for Thanksgiving later.
